Shaving.

Known for being close.

Famous for being Slicy.

Nobody thinks much about it, so let's have some fun.

Let's find out why shaving is secretly incredibly fascinating. Hey, there, folks.

Hey there, folks, welcome to a whole new podcast episode. A podcast all about why being alive is more interesting than people think it is.

My name is Alex Schmidt, and I'm not alone. I'm joined today by John Cullen and by Sarah Popolardo.

Two amazing guests. John Cullen is a wonderful comic and podcaster.

And he co-hosts the podcast, Blocked Party, which is amazing.

Every week, it's John Cullen and Stefan Huck bringing on a new guest to talk about the most

significant story where they got blocked on Twitter or Instagram or any other social media platform or situation. It goes tons of

directions from there. Amazing show. You also may remember John from the episode of this podcast about

Amper Sans. And then Sarah Popolardo is a new guest, an incredible comedy writer and podcaster.

They are the co-founder and editor of Reductress.com.

I hope you know Reductress, or I hope you'll check it out. It's an amazing satirical

comedy website. It's also home to a couple very funny podcasts, including the Reductress

Minute, co-hosted by Sarah Popolardo. Also, I've gathered all of our postal codes and used

internet resources like native-land.ca

to acknowledge that Sarah and I each recorded this on the traditional land of the Canarsie and Lanapi peoples.

Acknowledge John recorded this on the traditional land of the Coast Salish, Musquiam, Squamish, and Slalwath peoples, and acknowledge that in all of our

locations, native people are very much still here. That feels worth doing on each episode.

And today's episode is about shaving. Shaving is the top patron chosen topic for the month of January. Thank you to
