two grown adults who happen to be married to each other wax silly about tangentially related and/or completely disparate things and stuff. we were going to call the podcast "just two people," but jean and lionel had that title pinned down already. dramatis personae: jahnna and josh, the aforementioned humans; charlie, wren, and otis (they are dogs).

hey, we're back! some ... stuff happened in 2022 and we took an unplanned break. we've got a fair number of updates in this episode, and because of the gap since our last episode we're calling this the start of season 2. some brief show notes and credits: nümetal sample credit to The Aquabats! "I Fell Asleep on My Arm" josh made a reference to Oper…

we’re back! we accidentally took a hiatus, but we are finally back behind the mic. if you were following the adventurecast experiment, the audio on the second half (adventurecast: the return journey) was absolutely awful. so here’s the gist of what happened: we enjoyed our day out in cave city, ky, and we both highly recommend visiting dinosaur wor…

here is part 2 of epic harvey-groft day trip 2022. hopefully audio quality is a bit better than part 1. some background: way back in december i (jahnna) won a contest at school by knitting my own ugly holiday sweater, and the prize was a day off from school. it’s not been a good year for being able to get a sub and take a day off from school, nor w…

we did an experiment this week with the recording—and it was largely successful-ish! some background: way back in december i (jahnna) won a contest at school by knitting my own ugly holiday sweater, and the prize was a day off from school. it’s not been a good year for being able to get a sub and take a day off from school, nor was there anywhere t…

greetings from louisville where we are either experiencing a redbud winter (a winter that interrupts spring), or we are seeing a tail end episode of spring of deception (a spring that interrupts winter). this week’s episode was a bit of a rush job—it was always a bit destined to be because we were waiting for the battlebots tournament to end. howev…

right. so i (jahnna) have taken over the show notes. at least for now. so this week, josh told me that i oughtn’t envision a more just and equitable world because that’s a big ask, so i started smaller by envisioning a more just and equitable olympics. we discussed the inequities in some money for medals programs (particularly canada’s), and it tur…

once again, i (josh) intended to put better show notes in here. perhaps, someday, i will. guess you'll just have to listen if you want to know what we talked about. it definitely involved mongols somehow. kind of. and some general life updates from casa harvey-groft. intro and outtro music is Bark-a-Tron 5000 by Bad Ronald, available at freemusicar…

ah, well... i don't really have time for show notes today. jahnna is reading Radium Girls and i'm reading Sartre. other show mentions include Tori Amos, Little Women, Ani DiFranco, Liz Phair, Alanis Morisette, and probably some other stuff. you can look it up if you need to, you're a smart kid.Bởi jahnna and josh

as the title suggests, our protagonists discuss both dogs and books, and how we, as a culture, underestimate kids' reading capabilities and emotional capacities. also, Animal Crossing. beware spoilers for I'm Thinking of Ending Things. links to other things, mostly books, that are mentioned in this episode: Carmichael's (our local bookstore) Browns…

jahnna and josh are back to give you a year-end wrap-up. sort of. we sort of ramble, as always, as the words escaping our mouths struggle to keep up with our brains. in episode 5, we find some things that didn't suck about 2021, as well as desires for 2022 (but not goals, because we don't do new year's resolutions). and this episode has been optimi…

in episode 4 our protagonists talk smack on a rather obscure text called The Return of the King, and also The Hobbit. and except for josh struggling to form cohesive sentences, you'll also hear about: The Heroine with 1001 Faces puppets discussing the monomyth The Norse myth that inspired "The Lord of the Rings" O Brother, Where Art Thou? The Hero …

hey! this episode is somewhat belated. it's the holiday season, and josh was out of town for a week in december, so things got weird. the editing may be a little slapdash, sorry and/or get over it. here's some of the things we reference this week: Funny, You Don't Look Autistic: A Comedian's Guide to Life on the Spectrum By Michael McCreary Hypersp…

good news, everyone! the audio quality of episode two is markedly better than in episode one! i'm (josh) learning great stuff about audio editing! no weird gaps! background noise removed! bad news, everyone! we were both tired and unprepared when recording this episode, so ... it's maybe boring? some of last week's topics get a rehash. but hey, tha…

jahnna and josh talk for a while. wren breathes loudly in the background and occasionally barks. if you don't know us -- heck, even if you do know us -- it may be difficult to follow. we jump around [cue music] topics a bit (a lot). spoiler alert for Avengers: Endgame. find other stuff we post at theharveygrofts.com. links to some of the things we …
