This week we’re breaking down Dunder Mifflin Infinity. To kick off this two-part episode, Angela announces herself as ‘Kinseypedia’ for this episode and gets the inside scoop on the Dunder Mifflin Infinity website. Then, we discuss Toby outing Jim and Pam’s relationship to the whole office, we learn how to make a cat look feral, and we get a major Old Tech Alert with Ryan’s mandated Blackberry’s. Finally, we discuss some very funny Kelly-Ryan drama, Jan’s trendy outfit that is not too dissimilar to something Jenna may have worn, and Creed helps us answer fan questions about his hair dye job in this episode. We hope your hearts soar with the eagle’s nest after this episode!

Special thanks to Joya Balfour. Check out joyabalfour.com for a look at what the Dunder Mifflin Infinity website looked like! 

Did you know that if you want to represent your block in Brooklyn as a local elected official, you have to mark a gender designation—and the only options are “male” and “female”? This week on Getting Curious, Jonathan is speaking with Jesse Pierce and Samy Nemir Olivares, both elected District Leaders in Brooklyn, all about this gender rule: how it came into existence, why it’s exclusionary, and how we can work to make local seats across Brooklyn and the country more inclusive and equitable.

Jesse Pierce is a non-binary queer elected Democratic District Leader in Brooklyn’s 52nd Assembly District. They focus on hyper local political grassroots organizing as a means to transform our politics both locally and nationally.

Samy Nemir Olivares (he/they) is a Puerto Rican-Dominican, queer activist, writer, communicator and District Leader in Brooklyn. Samy advocates for gender, racial and social justice through politics, media and education. Samy works for a national nonprofit for LGBTQ civil rights and produced a documentary about TGNC rights in New York: Stonewall With a T.

Nicole and Sasheer are all bundled up and ready to discuss paying for heat, weighted blankets, sleep entanglements, alien abductions, angel encounters, ghost sightings, the movie Casper, cell phones over the years, pay phone tricks, roasting strangers, flight attendants’ covid material, being in L.A. longer than ever before, the T.V. show Zoom, and how many stars the Disney channel gave us. Then they take the quiz: Which Old Hollywood Icon Are You? And answer your questions. This week’s voicemail comes from a truly wonderful no-a-kid 14-year-old that both Nicole and Sasheer want to be friends with. The gals give advice about what is and isn’t bullying (being verbally mean IS bullying), how to find like-minded friends (search hashtags) and how to dump not-friends (stop hanging out with them.) Email or call Nicole & Sasheer with your friendship questions at: nicoleandsasheer@gmail.com

A trans teen explores their Mexican roots, sharing what they’ve learned about Mexican folk healing. They also discuss coming out as trans to their parents and the healing power of Coca Cola.

At the beginning of this episode we hear a bit about Marie’s upbringing in Jamaica before Michelle joins the call from a film set Atlanta! So it’s another double daughter, double mom episode. You also get two versions of how Michelle’s parent’s met: Marie’s and then Michelle’s, which shows just how great a storyteller Michelle is, because the flair added was laugh out loud. Marie told us that Michelle has a journalism degree and early on, aspired to be like Oprah! She says Michelle loved throwing parties down in their New Jersey basement and that her latest stand-up special was just like that… this time it just happened to be in the basement of New York City’s Sony Hall. Watch “Welcome to Buteaupia” on Netflix and snag her new book “Survival of the Thickest” now! 

The SAP crew reveals their Spotify Wrapped playlists, and Tony can’t believe what’s on his. Later on, Luis Gerardo Méndez talks about his new film Half Brothers and how having a half sibling IRL helped him connect to his character.
