Saturday Dec 24, 2022
Are you with family for the holidays and need an excuse to gtfo for roughly an hour and five minutes? We've got you covered with a fresh new episode of Modest Brow to listen to while you take that nice long walk around the neighborhood. We're rebranding one of the biggest holidays of the year in this episode - and we think you could use a break from listening to Uncle Randy talk about his standpoint on immigration.

Sports ball is in season, which means fantasy sports are also ripe for the creating. Welcome to the first annual (quarterly? monthly?) Ultimate Fantasy Fighter Challenge!! Joined by actress, comedian & hottie bombalottie Imke Hart, we square off all-star talents like Betty White and Remy the Rat in the ring and speculate who would walk away the Ultimate Champion.

Game as old as time. Would you smash or pass the wind? How about brewing your own kombucha?
This is probably the most fun we've had recording this podcast yet.

Modest Brow 12 - What is the Best Superpower?
Tuesday Jul 26, 2022
Tuesday Jul 26, 2022
We've been sitting on this episode for over a MONTH just waiting until all the fun new Comic-Con announcements came out so we could release our appropriately themed topic for this week - SUPERPOWERS! This was definitely a strategic marketing plan. We definitely didn't just not have time to edit this episode for an entire month. That definitely did not happen.
What is the best superpower? Would you rather be able to walk through ice cream or your husband? How bad are we at coming up with superpower examples? Two armchair idiots ponder one of the few topics we might actually be qualified to discuss - scenarios that are entirely fictitious.

Tuesday May 10, 2022
Tuesday May 10, 2022
Can we single-handedly fix LA traffic in 75 minutes? Who exactly is "Mommy Blinker"? Are all drag kings Michael Bublé?
WE'RE BACK from our unannounced, unplanned, unprecedented 2-month hiatus (you miss us?) and hot off the press ready to solve society's most pressing issues.

Modest Brow 10 - What is Storytelling?
Monday Mar 07, 2022
Monday Mar 07, 2022
Joined by professional storytelling extraordinaire Cerene Shepard, we sat down for an evening of *civilized discourse* to see if we could discern which narrative format is superior. Permeated by anecdotes from our days as junkyard clowns, an imaginative commerce confession, and of course some impromptu improv games, this episode was a joy to record and very dear to our hearts. We love you, Cerene!

Modest Brow 9 - Xtreme Holiday Makeover - Galentines
Monday Feb 14, 2022
Monday Feb 14, 2022
We hope you enjoyed your Galentine's Day, because it's the last one you'll ever spend eating boring Belgian waffles with the same ol' boring "gal pals". We made over this fictional holiday in a way that would make Leslie Knope proud. Come for the historical recounting of *colorful* pagan traditions, stay for the party broccoli ship captains (we promise, it makes sense).

Modest Brow 8 - What’s the Deal with Memory?
Monday Jan 24, 2022
Monday Jan 24, 2022
Can we learn to be better at learning? Does multi-tasking inhibit your ability to retain information? Why do I remember some details about the series finale of Game of Thrones but have completely blacked out others? We sat down with Dr. Lauren Bates, a professor of Psychology at Flagler College specializing in Learning & Memory, and actually did some real-life LEARNING about the complexities of the human mind. Also there may be some "slight" Game of Thrones spoilers in here; just a heads up to all 5 of you out there who haven't caught up yet to a show that ended 3 years ago.
