Summary
In this episode, we share our smooch, marry, and kills for August. We discuss what you should give a shot (smooch), what you should commit to (marry), and what you should just pass on by (kill) during the most mid month of the year. Join us as we share what shows we’ll be bingeing while hiding from the back-to-school chaos, which movies are actually worth leaving the AC for, and which albums will chase away the ‘Sunday Scaries’ vibe the month incites.

- Refresh: Smooch= give a shot, Marry = commit time to, Kill= do not murder! We’re just suggesting to skip these things.

| 0:00.0 | I just don't understand how aliens can be attacking us in my birthday month in November. And yet we still don't know how to fix a kidney stone other than four to six weeks. We'll loosen up your ureter. First of all, I don't want anyone loosen up my ureter. You know, there's one of the first of your world. Is it your reader? No. I mean, to be honest with you, your reader is more fun. And that's what I want to say. So let's call it that. |
| 0:01.2 | Okay, your reader? Is it your reader? No. I mean, to be honest with you, your reader is more fun. |
| 0:22.3 | It is more fun. So let's call it that. So that your reader. I hope you're relaxed. Your reader. |
| 0:27.0 | Yeah. |
| 0:27.2 | Yeah. |
| 0:27.6 | Hello. Welcome to us to number 618 of the podcast. I'm your host, Knox McCoy. And I'm your other host, Jamie Golden. The podcast is a show dedicated to delightful idiocy, and we're committed to educating you on the things entertained, but do not matter. To find out more about these Augustinian pursuits, check us out at knoxinjami.com. You can also find us on Instagram, Facebook, and Boyce Guy at the podcast. |
| 0:55.2 | Thanks for joining us this week as we are going to be talking what to smooch, marry, and kill for August. |
| 0:59.8 | But before we do that, you guys, we have a brand new free quiz. What's your Pixar villain origin story? |
| 1:05.7 | This was created by Knox to help you discover which life of a Pixar villain you are living. |
| 1:11.3 | It's at Knoxinjemy.com slash Pixar villain. Listen, there are 24 results that are brutal |
| 1:15.4 | in their accuracy. On our team, Andy got Andy's mom, the influencer exile from Toy Story. |
| 1:22.1 | And listen, one of the lines in this is you were the blueprint. You invented, inventing messy buns, |
| 1:26.8 | and we don't eat meals. Snacks are the meal. But when the mom fluencer wave came, you were the blueprint. You invented, invented messy buns and we don't eat meal. |
| 1:27.8 | Snacks are the meal. But when the mom fluencer wave came, you were buried in permission |
| 1:31.8 | slips and emotional labor. It goes on and it's so, it made Indy feel seen, but also |
| 1:37.8 | terrorized by Knox's content. My favorite one is Bo Peep's forgotten flock, the villainy of them. Bo got a glow up, |
| 1:46.2 | a cape, some eyeliner, and a love interest. You left behind and discarded into a clearance |
| 1:50.1 | bin between a plastic spider ring and someone's old retainer case. If you got this result, |
| 1:54.9 | you've been the sidekick, the overlooked, the loyal extra, but forget being the shepherd. |
| 1:58.0 | You're the danger coming from within the dark of the night. |
| 2:01.3 | So good. So again, head to knox and jamie.com slash Pixar villain. Of course, this is in celebration |
| 2:06.5 | of our Pixar collection that you can snag in our shop at knoxonjamy.com. |
