The one time I had a meatball marinara from subway I had a panic attack 👍

Is subway cheap in Australia? I feel like it used to cost £5 and now it costs £12.99 and my order and wages haven’t changed

My dad got a terminal diagnosis when he was 53, and both his siblings died of the same illness shortly after him. My brother and I had to assume as teenagers that we won’t live to see old age. Maybe we won’t inherit dad’s disease, but we may as well live like we’re middle aged at 25. I’m a broke healthcare worker with no ambition to get rich. I love my friends and my siblings and my pets and I foster orphan kittens as a hobby. I could die today and be fulfilled.

The Subway segment was a real "when are they going to get to the fireworks factory?!" for waiting for someone to make a Jared joke. You went long enough that I started to think it wasn't going to happen.

Andrew's wisdom about changing healthy habits from stuff you should do into stuff you do to empower yourself was a genuinely helpful reminder. I'm gonna go get my shit blasted on weedahol while I use all the heavy exercise equipment at the YMCA!

I think few people on their deathbed say "I wish I would have spent more time at the gym" or "I wish I had optimized better" but people will say "I wish my health had been better" or "I wish I had had more time to spend on the things that mattered most to me". A lot of things we do, working, watching our diet, going to the doctor even if stuff does not hurt right now, is not about liking those things but what we get off them.

I recently pulled way back on my weed habit, went from smoking multiple times every day to smoking once or twice a month. The thing that drove me to it, apart from feeling lazy and useless, was that I got interested in lucid dreaming and trying to program myself to do it more often. It's practically impossible with weed in your system so I stopped.

Thank you for this ep, certainly resonated with me and was sincerely moving 🧡 thanks guys

Theo Pengelly

Check out basically any other episode

As a former Subway Sandwich Artist, don’t eat there

mexicanhalloween .

That accent when talking about swedish meatballs, hmm, what if a swedish man was italian?

Boonta Vista

what if a swedish guy was an 3rd generation italian guy in new jersey

Declan Kennedy

oh no, Lucy is away so the podcast degenerated into the boys ruminating on the nature of love, human-connection, and confronting entropy in the context of a human life aaah

mexicanhalloween .

now I can't be certain, but I feel like ACAB includes this guy

synthmage

Fellas it's real grim over here in America right now, pretty much everyone I know is doing Bad (myself included), and sleep isn't coming easy tonight, so I really appreciated this one.

Lee Godden

Alright you dumb ducklings I'll tell you how to order subway. Step one: think of the best sandwich you've had from subway. Step two : order that forever. Additional info: if you cannot think of a sandwich yourself or remember one of your liking these are the steps one should take; quote "I'll have tuna on an Italian herbs and cheese footlong, cheese please , fresh not toasted thanks , thanks , cheers , umm spinach, tomato , cucumber , onion and olives... Mayo thanks ..... Yeah salt and pepper... Thanks mate,...$13 m.. card thanks *beep* thanks mate have a good one "

Robert Connor

Loving the recent earnest rumination streak this year, great pod!

RobinSSci

This was just really lovely. You folks are wonderful.

Adam

Theo m8 you can add the card to your password manager and auto fill it in your Bolognaise As A Service site.

Christopher

uh oh, you did the thing where you forgot that a playfully sarcastic tone doesn't carry over to text and now they're unfortunately gonna kill you

Christopher

can I please be excused from the boonta vista challenge this week im kinda scared of my baker

James

Man, that bit about smoking a tonne of weed really resonated as someone currently trying to quit (at least habitual smoking, maybe completely) and replacing it with more meaningful hobbies and experiences + knowing when something is bad for you but having the little voice that says, “ahh, go on then!” Honestly, the entire weed chat bit hit pretty hard. Feeling a little bit less alone, so thanks! Also, I can’t believe Ben didn’t name the book series

Roday

ben what’s the book series you’ve been reading?

Abeatupbluechevy

All time great episode. I wrestle often with the questions you all were talking about. Don’t have any answers but I think if you are conscious and reflective as you all were that’s the best we can do as the imperfect creatures we are.

Abeatupbluechevy

Also, it resonated with me despite being 26! Been listening since 21 haha

Boonta Vista

Book of the New Sun! just a nice little series of puzzles to sink your teeth into

i used to be unable to burp as well, a condition which also led to bouts of unpleasant and painful hiccups. underwent surgery to remove my gall bladder a few years back and now i burp just fine. my assumption is that the carbon dioxide they pumped into my abdomen during the procedure knocked my diaphragm back into joint or generally unfucked it somehow. i'm burping up a storm now!

William Beamish

the anti meatball rhetoric only displays your failures at meatball preparation. brown them in a pan in batches and then finish them in your sauce; perfect every time

Roday

thank you! i gave the whole ghost mutt album from the outro a spin too and it’s phenomenal, cheers for that :)

40-year-old restaurant started in the 50s: "What? Jimmy's Whites-Only Diner is closing?"

Boonta Vista

wrong! doesn't solve the flavour distribution problem

Listened to this episode while driving, thinking, 'wow. I can't wait to stop driving so I can comment how much I sincerely loved the first 29 minutes exclusively sledging Sunbway', but then I was also rewarded once again for my patronage with the truly beautiful sharing of what's working and not working for living your lives. PS lol @Ben saying you'd simply sweep up the crumbs. That is not an option! Woe to me, the amount of crumbs on the floor having young children and I am completely powerless against these crumbs (and the children).

I’m on a journey to inner peace after a really terrible few years (broke up with my boyfriend of almost 9 years because he cheated on me and it ended quite terribly, developed chronic pain, got 2x skin cancer in one year (I am 27)) and life is very good for me right now… I think the key for me has been self forgiveness and paying close attention to my nervous system and doing things that help me feel actually good and connected. I try to end every day feeling satisfied, even if I wasn’t particularly “productive”. Rest and relaxation is always fulfilling!

David Derbesy

never eat meatballs prepared by a host of the podcast boonter vister, got it

UD-wat

An all-time great episode that put some stuff in perspective for me as well. Thank you Boonta Vista for helping me on my personal journey, love the comedy current events show also being a source for great life advice

Christopher

Have you tried turning it off and on again - medical edition

tim newman

thanks friends i’m crying love you.

Zack Niceman

Another nice one, like the Permacrisis Bananaphone intro. I'm past the 35-45 range and don't have much figured out, am I allowed to keep listening?

Tom O'Keefe

This was a genuinely beautiful episode guys. I've gone back and re-listened to the second half a couple of times now as it's really hitting hard, particularly on choosing to see improvement as an opportunity rather than an obligation. Ben's talk about being fulfilled being next to his two great loves also helped me remember how grateful I am for my loved ones. You done good gang 💚

Shiloh Blue

you’re my favorite Australian millennials

Thanks for this episode fellas

At first I thought the opening footage was from the Unarians. They had some lovely supernatural theatric footage. https://www.instagram.com/unarius33/ I once pulled off the freeway to do a pit stop and parked right in front of their world HQ. It was a transcendent moment.

Bob

So good to hear you all being vulnerable and open about your lives and the changes that come as you develop as people. It's so heartening and validating to hear others on the same kind of journey

Boonta Vista

last year I got to see Drab Majesty do a live score to a Unarians video! it was so good

Roday

cracked open shadow and claw this morning! i’ve been looking for a big juicy book world to get into, i’m very much looking forward to it.

Turoffsky

Damn boys, that was beautiful and it did resonate
