Jana and Brian are joined by comedian Nori Reed (Raven’s Home, After Midnight, HBO, Showtime) for a long-overdue redo episode after a tragically corrupted audio file. Together, they unpack the algorithm’s favorite “wisdom,” debate whether quarter-zips thin culture, and grocery store inflation are all signs of late-stage capitalism, and share recession-era survival tips ranging from refund confidence and rejection therapy to accidentally buying 20 bunches of kale at Whole Foods. The conversation swerves from self-help grifters and body politics to fascism and why everything suddenly costs $80, before diving into listener advice when a Bay Area pastry chef asks what people actually want from a bakery case. Jana, Brian, and Nori weigh in.FOR MORE OF US IN YOUR LIFE, BECOME AN OFFICIAL WISE ASS: sagebasedwisdom.supercast.com Hosts: Jana Schmieding (@janaunplgd) and Brian Bahe (@brian_bahe)Guest: Nori Reed (@norireed)Music: Steve Jenkins (@stevejenkins)Producer: John Delviscio (@johndelviscio)Have a question or comment about anything?
