Enzo and Anna are coming to you live this week with another episode on friendships. With a combined 41 years of friendship experience (quick maths,) they’re here to take a deep dive into when a friendship becomes transactional. Enzo opens up about some past friendships in which she has felt the need to people-please, and always clear her schedule so as to not let her friends down. She also brings up the different archetypes of a friend, and Anna talks about how important it is to not keep score in a friendship as long as you aren’t being taken advantage of. Listen in and let us know if you can relate. Enjoy!

Episode 128 of Telepathy might, in fact, be opinion-based. This week, Enzo and Anna are investigating the state of critical thinking and group polarization, courtesy of social media herself. Despite featuring a wedding and many symbols of unity, Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime performance has still managed to ruffle some feathers. Enzo and Anna discuss how many people can't form an opinion until they've seen a TikTok about it, relying on the comments to think for them. In addition, Enzo proposes that social media has led many moderates to adopt more radical opinions due to group polarization. Similarly, Anna encourages people to simply watch the halftime show and form an opinion away from social media, as opposed to needing a headline to tell you how to think...

For episode 127 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are picking their words carefully to discuss the phenomenon of being "media trained." They examine how public figures avoid controversy by understanding what a journalist is looking for. In addition, Enzo and Anna break down how celebrities are able to sway interviews in their favor to announce their latest secret. On the other hand, Telepathy is here to analyze how "PR training" has infiltrated the local level. From curated apologies to back-handed compliments, your friend may be using "media training" to craft their personal brand IRL. Some may call it fake, some may see it as PR storytelling. Good thing Telepathy is here to settle this debate for good...

If there’s a will, there’s a whey. Okay…the protein jokes end now, sorry. For episode 126 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna analyze the recent protein pandemic, or what Enzo calls the “proteinifcation” of everything. They unpack recent diet culture trends and how certain food groups have been demonized in the past. With low-carb diets being praised, why is protein the only macronutrient that has yet to be villainized? They also discuss how protein has become more accessible and, therefore, more profitable. As opposed to spending $50 on a rib-eye steak, you could just spend $2 on Starbucks protein cold foam! As a pescatarian, Enzo also addresses the “insufficient protein consumption” allegations. Finally, Anna brings light to the evolution of protein bars, from RX bars to David Bars. Are the ingredients changing based on new scientific information, or is it just the newest food fad?

For episode 125 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna break down the newest plot twist in the timeline. This time, it involves Enzo's life-long favorite, Nicki Minaj. What started as a Twitter/X post quickly turned into a UN appearance and AmFest interview with Erika Kirk. As a barb since birth, Enzo recaps Nicki Minaj's political history and explains how she went from criticizing Donald Trump in a 2010 documentary to describing him as our "handsome, dashing president." Enzo and Anna also reflect on the recent MAGA shift in Hollywood and how more celebrities may let us down in the near future...Fox News. (2025, December 17).

And at last I see...yet another Disney live-action remake. In episode 124 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are here to discuss the plethora of Disney adaptations that have been released over the last few years. As Disney announces the casting for Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, Telepathy predicts how the use of CGI in the new "Tangled" may lead to its downfall. Enzo and Anna also mention the inevitable flop of "Snow White," the new "Moana" nobody is ready for, and how Halle Bailey may have been the only good choice Disney has made thus far. Enzo also goes on several rants about "The Little Mermaid (2023)," and is very upset with Disney for cutting the third verse of "Poor Unfortunate Souls." Finally, Anna anticipates the casting of Mother Gothel may make or break "Tangled." Enjoy!

New year, new things to consume. In episode 123 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna revisit the state of overconsumption. Since their previous discussion of the Stanley Cup craze in 2024, new ways to fall into the trap of consumerism have been created. From services like Amazon Prime and DoorDash to trendy collectibles like Labubus, our money went all sorts of places in 2025. However, Enzo and Anna have compiled a list of ways we tend to over-consume, in order to hopefully make more sustainable choices in 2026. Lastly, they debate whether we have access to "too much" with the addition of streaming services and audiobooks.

For episode 113 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are going deep. This week, they're reflecting on events that occurred in their childhood that have manifested into negative habits today. Anna discusses the impact of growing up shy and feeling excluded in school, while Enzo opens up about navigating femininity in private as a child. They also analyze the concept of "healing your inner child," and note the differences between reconnecting with your favorite childhood media vs. living through new experiences your five-year-old self never had the chance to. Disclaimer: Enzo and Anna are referring to trauma as a "deeply distressing or disturbing experience," and are not referencing any diagnosed trauma disorders.

For episode 112 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are adding the second episode to their new series, "normalized addictions." Today, they are talking about none other than the smartphone. Enzo and Anna discuss their attachment to their phones and the tendency to rely on social media to fill time. They also analyze the societal impact of smartphones as our screen times collectively increase. Enzo and Anna dive deep into what makes our phones so addictive and what aspects of our phone usage mirror an addiction. Finally, they map out a plan to reduce screen time to increase productivity, creativity, and real human connection.

For an angel number episode (#111), Telepathy discusses the possibility of protecting your peace *too* much. Enzo and Anna determine what is selfish vs. self-care and the idea that true friendship doesn't exist anymore. After seeing a viral post of a girl reminding everyone that you should attend your friend's birthday party even if you're tired, Enzo analyzes the gray area between taking care of yourself and still showing up for others. Anna explains how her childhood may have shaped her current view of friendship, and how she's learned to maintain a work-life balance in the midst of her relationship. Enzo then concludes that this all may be an issue due to social media, phone addictions, and even hustle culture. Enjoy!
