Life is Short with Justin Long – Détails, épisodes et analyse

The guys catch up about Christian’s experience at PorchFest this year, the annual Connecticut tradition where bands set up stages on neighborhood porches (and how Christian didn’t move from his porch the whole time). Justin recounts the walk down memory lane he and Kate had after having Hibachi at the Sakura Japanese restaurant in Westport, CT. Then we read a letter from Kathy about how afternoon sex is the best and that noses contain erectile tissue (hence Justin’s broken capillary issue), then she ends it with the saddest WYR we’ve ever heard. Finally, Courtney leaves a voicemail asking for the guys to break down Office Space, and she offers up a much sillier WYR.

Justin and Christian talk about eating strange vegetables in public, what feral and domestic animals would say to humans, and yet again they discuss just how out of touch they are with what’s cool these days.

Then we read a letter from an Ohio school teacher named Franny asking the guys if they’ve ever decided to pivot and how they got the courage to take that leap. Finally, a voicemail from a stoned listener named Casey offers up a barrage of quick fire WYRs, including whether they’d rather be bald on their head or bald on their face.
