We start today's episode off discussing house projects, working on your own home and Bob Villa's affect on the modern housing market. Doug discusses the red flags you should look for when purchasing a home that indicate that the house has been flipped. The fellas discuss the phenomenon of only fixing up your home to sell it as opposed to re-appreciating your home every few years in order to breathe new life into the same space.

The conversation turns to the concept of designating creative spaces for ourselves in our lives. Doug discusses how he spent his younger years trying to prove to himself that he was an artist because he grew up in a world where no one was an artist. Doug and Ian discuss the importance of encouraging your children's creative impulses and how designating creative spaces within our lives can help them feel more connected to those creative parts of themselves.

We share our new audio intros from our friend Ezra and discuss our thoughts on them. Doug brings up the potential genetic defect behind white people "clapping on the 1" and the fellas debate whether mayo consumption may or may not be the culprit.

Ian discusses a recent interview he saw featuring Scott Galloway and shares his thoughts. The conversation turns to modern masculinity, fake masculinity and the current "crisis of masculinity" in our culture today. Is it a lack of masculine leadership? Is it a lack of modern rites of passage in our culture? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Today's talk ends with a short conversation at the intersection of black conservatism and gay/trans issues. Ian drops some wisdom in this segment.

We round out today's episode with another round of everyone's favorite international quiz show: "Which Side Of The Border."
