Can you imagine embarking on a 14-hour drive to Florida, stuck in a car with no AC or radio and three squabbling kids in the backseat? We've lived it, and survived to laugh about it! This episode is a hilarious trip down memory lane as we reminisce about our insane childhood vacation. We also offer a window into the entertaining aspects of being an uncle.

Ever struggled with writer’s block or been paralyzed by the fear of starting from scratch? You're not alone. We share our own trials and triumphs in navigating the writing process, from the struggles of getting started and the pitfalls of thinking too big picture, to the thrill and terror of taking risks. We delve into the peculiar conundrum when a joke works but just doesn't feel right, and the daunting fear of blank pages.

Finally, we bare our souls (and our skin), discussing our own experiences with tattoos and our mom's comical horror at them. We also open up about crowd work and how that affects the dynamic of the show!

We're taking a trip down memory lane in this episode, as we reminisce about our personal journeys in the arts and the defining moments that ignited our passions. Do you remember the first person outside of your family who recognized your potential? For Leah, it was the incredible Jan Canada Fritch who believed in me during her voice lessons as a young girl, despite her lack of singing talent. Her encouragement played a monumental role in shaping her career and instilling confidence in her pursuit of the arts.

Our older brother Mike also played a part in our journeys, albeit in a more humorous and cruel way. We share stories of his antics during our childhood games of flashlight tag and how they helped us develop a thick skin. As we chat about our favorite songs and bands, we introduce the Mega Men, Andrew’s high school band. Their catchy song, Shun-Junt, kicks off the musical portion of the episode and is sure to have you humming along.

Join us in this heartwarming and entertaining episode as we explore the moments and memories that have shaped our lives and careers in the arts. We also encourage our listeners to leave a five-star review for our podcast and don't forget to listen to the Mega Men's entire catalog on Patreon. So, sit back, relax, and let us take you on a journey through the defining moments that led us to where we are today.
