Do your eyes glaze over when looking at a long list of annual health insurance enrollment options – or maybe while you’re trying to calculate how much you owe the IRS? You might be wondering the same thing we are: Where’s the guidebook for all of this grown-up stuff? Whether opening a bank account, refinancing student loans, or purchasing car insurance (...um, can we just roll the dice without it?), we’re just as confused as you are. Enter: “Grown-Up Stuff: How to Adult” a podcast dedicated to explaining the complexities of adulting for which most of us are woefully under-prepared. In each episode, we seek out folks who can actually help us start to make sense of all the basic life skills required to be, well, a grown-up.

SUMMARY: (A Dave and Kellen episode!) This book is full of incredible trivia about the human body, beautifully and hilariously written. For instance, did you know that every one of your organs is being played by a tiny little Phantom of the Opera? When your stomach is rumbling, that’s him telling Christine to “Sing, angel!” If you release gas as you sleep, that’s simply the music of the night! Fun.

SUMMARY: What if Pride and Prejudice were spooky? What if Mr. Darcy were less handsome, but also more abominable? What if instead of four sisters, Lizzie had no parents and a best friend who dies of tuberculosis? If you love Jane Austen, you’ll love this book, assuming you can get on board with some stuff. Today’s novel is the incomparable Jane Eyre. Though I guess it can be comparable to Pride and Prejudice.

It gives all of us urgent reason to (while we still can) take advantage of the Taco Bell 5 Dollar Taco Discovery Box deal. How would you live differently if you knew this was your last day to spend time with loved ones, work on a passion project, or eat a Doritos Locos Taco with a medium fountain drink (including the Baja Blast)?

SUMMARY: We live in a society inundated by endless sources of entertainment and cheap dopamine. In today’s book, Anna Lembke discusses how we can respond to such dangers, like, for instance, a pool table. Friend, either you're closing your eyes to a situation you do not wish to acknowledge, or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated by the presence of a pool table in your community. Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right here I say, trouble right here in River City Why, sure, I'm a billiard player Certainly mighty proud I say I'm always mighty proud to say it I consider that the hours I spend With a cue in my hand are golden Help you cultivate horse sense And a cool hеad and a keen eye J'evеr take and try to find An iron-clad leave for yourself From a three-rail billiard shot? But just as I say It takes judgment, brains, and maturity to score In a balkline game I say that any boob can takeAnd shove a ball in a pocket And I call that sloth The first big step on the road To the depths of deg-ra-day-- I say, first, medicinal wine from a teaspoon Then beer from a bottle! An' the next thing ya know Your son is playin' for money In a pinch-back suit And list'nin to some big out-a-town jasper Hearin' him tell about horse-race gamblin' Not a wholesome trottin' race, no! But a race where they set down right on the horse! Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy Settin' on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil? Well, I should say Now, friends, lemme tell you what I mean Ya got one, two, three, four, five, six pockets in a table Pockets that mark the diff'rence Between a gentlemen and a bum With a capital "B," And that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool!
