relistening to this while working on my assignment for my english language degree and it hurt my heart to hear jack say that a mug is a proper noun

2025-03-26 18:21:12 +0000 UTCmy favourite album is darkness on the edge of town - it's phenomenal, i can't even give words to describe it. if you don't want to listen to the whole album though, i'd recommend badlands, candy's room, the promised land or racing in the street. i would also consider checking out the movie blinded by the light. perfectly captures the energy of listening to the boss' music. (also, on the off chance you're especially interested in german/soviet history - read about his 1988 concert in east berlin. he opened with badlands, had an audience of 300,000 and gave an appeal for freedom that contributed so significantly to the need for liberation in east berlin at the time that modern historians have called the concert one of the factors for the fall of the berlin wall in 1989.) i know this is a lengthy reply, but it makes me really happy to see new bruce fans. hope you enjoy the recs!!

2025-03-25 18:45:01 +0000 UTCAnother comment lol, but “why” always will be more important to “what”, in my opinion. There is no what without a why, because then there’s no drive to create the what. WHY do we need something? For a task. The what comes later, as a question to identify something in order to figure out its meaning. Think of language & tools we’ve used as children. We need to know why we have something before we know what it is. If anyone’s ever been to a hospital or like in complete panic attack mode, you will always know why before what. I know why I need something, & in that moment, I don’t care WHAT it is; be it a hand to hold, painkillers, a doctor, maybe a shower. It’s what leaves you vulnerable, to be in a stage with little ability to do anything yourself or to ask questions & use that knowledge on your own. Another example- when I learnt English, I learnt the language before I knew what language is. I subconsciously knew why I needed it (for communication & thus survival), even though I discover new reasons of why I use English through new experiences. Also, if scaled by importance, why is still more important in my opinion, because without why, we’d never learn. We always need to ask why, because it’s how we learn. It’s how we are individuals who have thoughts independent of others that may use us. Also, knowing what something is can’t satiate the question of existence. If you think of existing as nothing but dark emptiness, then the pondering of “why” is existence enough in itself. You can fill a void with thoughts of why, though to be fair, I suppose this goes for all the questions there are to ask. But, a thought, or idea, can exist as a why or if, always before anything will become a what. Also, I think if you ask why enough, you get to the root of nature & existence itself. Why is the big question that people try to answer with religion- which is such an important part to many people’s lives- too, for instance. Think of the “why?” game kids play; kids do this & it appears (& may be intended as) obnoxious, but there’s also genuine curiosity in the unknown when you’re a kid. You could argue that we do, in fact, ask or learn the what before the why. But it doesn’t change the fact that one way or another, the necessity of a why will always come first. Sure, you may realize the why after the what, but its relevance surpasses what. In other words, we may 1st learn what and then why long after, but why, whether we ourselves knew it in the moment or not, was still the catalyst of what.

2025-03-23 21:27:21 +0000 UTCPaused this episode to listen to Bruce Springsteen after about 13 minutes in. I know who he is, but never really listened to is music. Every single lyric. Of “Streets of Philadelphia” resonated with me. It was like hearing the thoughts & experiences of myself & so many others being described so beautifully. Thanks for inspiring me to give him a listen. I love it. Mr. Simons, if you like Bruce Springsteen, maybe try Johnny Cash. Different style, & roughly a decade before Mr. Springsteen started gaining popularity, but really powerful messages about self-discovery & commentary on how broken society is. The guy was ahead of his time. If anyone else has any suggestions on what to listen to, or has a favorite song from Bruce Springsteen, feel free to share!

2025-03-22 13:28:32 +0000 UTC...lowkey i would not buy the vinyl unless its like ... narrated "best moments" ... random audio clips together would be so odd lmao. tbh i think a list of the "best worst moments" would be a good one for a vinyl/cd or the 1 yr anniversary

2025-03-19 03:54:18 +0000 UTCoh if Jack is struggling with booking the appointment... I dunno if it works the same in the UK but you have to call EVERY month for Adderall, you can't put it on auto refill; and you have to see the doctor every 6 months for the prescription to stay active
L4UNDRY_BE4R
2025-03-19 03:45:36 +0000 UTCHAHA i actually never finished this episode the first time because i went and played the stimulation clicker game & now I see Jack mentioning he got sucked into it. It's an ADHD mind melt, I fear

2025-02-16 23:32:13 +0000 UTCIk this wasn't on the patreon but for tom's lactose intolerance, NOMO brand chocolate is the nicest dairy/milk free chocolate, and it is the closest to what I can remember real chocolate to taste like (i became allergic to dairy at 11 and I'm 20 now so take that with a grain of salt), and the best dairy free cheese imo is morrisons own brand, and it kinda melts! (which is impressive for fake cheese)

2025-02-16 21:03:56 +0000 UTCif you wanted you could even be the podcast to bring back cassettes! that would be a cool unique merch idea, i cant think of anyone off the top of my head who sells cassettes as merch and it would really suit the aesthetic of the office and the wardrobe and the overall vibes of the podcast. SUIT, warriors of physical auditory media!
alf
2025-02-16 20:53:35 +0000 UTCthe vinyl idea does genuinely have merit. however, if you go through with the idea, could you please consider doing CD alternatives as well? record players are quite hard to get a hold of and CD collectors like myself would love to have physical media of the podcast! it would be fun to have a SUIT CD with the little booklet inside with a poster and extras
