We Can Do Better3 Apr 2025

Anti-aging, mansplaining, and blowing Brian

Today, John and Shaun ride the roller coaster of texting anxiety, threesomes, slippery self-care hacks, and the occasional social media meltdown. They break down why a simple “Good morning” text can feel like a high-stakes game and the many unexpected uses of coconut and olive oils.

Special guest, Lydia from Face Yoga by Lydia, joins to prove that, yes, your face needs a workout too. Expect expert guidance from Lydia and some endearingly awkward attempts from John and Shaun as they stretch and sculpt their way to eternal youth.

The duo also reflects on the emotional toll of online backlash and how it can unexpectedly get under your skin. And finally, they unpack the "Blowing Brian" story—plus a few very personal confessions along the way.

A little humor, a little wisdom, and a lot of things you can’t un-hear. Buckle up.
