It’s a JEREMY MARATHON day! To celebrate Jeremy and his new adventure (but don’t worry, even New York can’t get between him and this pod) we’ve rounded up four of Jeremy’s favorite AOAOAOA episodes for a Jarathon - Love is Blind, Clock It, Eurovision, and True Crime Podcasters. Between episodes is some juicy juicy BTS - Jeremy loses his mind over telling time and laughs so much that he sobs remembering the Eurovision episode. Kylie also fights for her life with Paul F. Tompkins and the gang remember filming podcasts in a hotel lobby fishbowl and what we used to think was a “professional recording set up.” We DON’T show you Jeremy’s feet or his Subway commercials with Marshawn Lynch that have never seen the light of day but we do show you where you can find both - the Patreon of course! This whole episode is like riding a bull so strap in!

"A rhetorical answer is an answer that did not need a question."

"You must be this tall to ride me. I'm just kidding."
"I have a Chablis waiting for you."

Food as Motivation and the Childhood Fall
Larissa reveals her origin story: a childhood fall led her to realize life is too short for vegetables, advocating for a diet of Snickers and Twix. Tommy pitches 'Alpha Brain' supplements.

"Alpha Brain... it is like taking Limitless in a little capsule form."
"Do you want to be eating like you have 10 lives?"
The 30-Second Motivational Optimization

"You, Justin Timberlake, are normal."

"Retire into the death of his sleep."
