In this episode of The Antidote, Amy and Grace connect with comedian, writer, and actor Solomon Georgio about his favorite kind of gossip, the practice of being kind to yourself, and karaoke.
Amy and Grace share their bummer news of the week – scam robotexts have surged in recent months, and the shift to remote work drove over 60% of the house-price surge. They also share their antidotes: change of season, and a new pair of glasses.
This week’s Creative Tap-In:
“I feel like the youthful experience is what drives the creativity, and I feel like experience and maturity as an adult, experience as an elder statesman, THAT refines it.”

Grace This is The Antidote. Hi, everyone. Welcome to another week of The Antidote. You are our constant antidote. So thank you for being here.
Amy Thank you, listeners. And also it's fall time, you know, and I'm not trying to be like a Trader Joe's ad or anything, but I know I said my antidote a few weeks back. My antidote was a Trader Joe's Overnight Oats, and I went to Trader Joe's yesterday and they had pumpkin flavored overnight oats. I had to get them. I had to snatch up.
Grace So you love the pumpkin. You like the pumpkin and the fall spices that are your jam?
Amy Well, I like a seasonal snack. I won't even say it's fall specific. I think there's something fun even outside of Trader Joe's when the seasons change and you get to have something that's just for that season. But I think I'll be honest, I think Trader Joe's kind of overdoes it with the pumpkin, like, you don't need pumpkin mochi and like pumpkin burritos and pumpkin eggrolls. Calm down. Yeah, they do too much.
Grace Calm down. You try- you have a pumpkin patch that's why you got so much pumpkin but do you like I did I like I do you know it's so interesting it's always the end of the year where we get, like special snacks or whatever, special foods. I'm more of a Christmas snack person because I love, like, like like a peppermint brownie or like, you know, like peppermint in. I guess I just like peppermint. So that's usually Christmas. So I do I do enjoy those. Or, you know, at Starbucks, they used to have this thin

Grace This is The Antidote. Hi, everybody. Welcome to another week of this podcast. Welcome back to the antidote.
Amy And another week of this garbage world.
Grace Yes. Yes, that is that is very true. I mean, yet we are still on this spinning orb of garbage.
Amy This trash island called Earth.
Grace Trash island called Earth. So, Amy, did you hear about this story? I saw it on Condé Nast Traveler that now there's going to be 80 minute flights from London to New York, like the Spanish designer Oscar biennials. He made like a super, like, futuristic, hyper strength jet that can get from London to New York in 80 minutes, like just a little over an hour.
Amy I'm laughing at that because I just imagine Black. Women's wigs flying off. Like peww, just everything ends up in New York all bald. What happened. That was too fast. I don't want to be on that fast ass flight. Like there's something wrong with that. Why would you doing that?
Grace That's scary.
Amy We're not even supposed to be in the sky like people are not supposed to fly.
Grace I mean, this is just concept art right now. But it's still wild that they're trying to do this.
Amy Why can't that guy do something else with his genius? Like, I'm just like, we don't. Yeah, I want to get places faster, but sometimes it's like, don't try and be God. Don't try and fly too fast is going to f--- something up.
