Mike and Doug catch up after their Idaho trip and reflect on the stories we tell ourselves. Doug shares an experience in his yard where a snake encounter turned suddenly when his dog Ozzy bit it in half. The moment sparked reflection on presence, seriousness, and experiencing life as a waking dream.

They also talk about:

Valley folk vs. mountain folk, and local identity.
The confusion between names like Kurt and Kirk.
How Mormon upbringing emphasized weight and meaning in everything, and how that carries into life after leaving.
Political divisions, “wokeness,” and the challenge of extending grace across differences.
Everyday neuroses, from airplane food smells to worries about being judged.
Music updates, including Austin Nights and Holy Smokes.
