ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to Pessimistic at Best, a podcast for those with a penchant for frequent frustrations, personal gripes, unpopular opinions, honest observations, and the like. Hosted by Sam, your resident Pessimistic Patty, this weekly show operates on the belief that no complaint is too small.
Each week, Sam sits down with a guest to explore the good, the bad, and the ugly. A surprisingly good country album by your favorite pop artist, a bad bang trim you gave yourself during a manic episode, a military homecoming video on the internet that made you ugly cry. The list is endless, and therein lies the beauty. Come on in, we saved you a seat!

What's your stance on public displays of affection? Are you open to a steamy hookup at the bar? As someone with a long-term partner, I'm typically abstaining from engaging in PDA myself (sorry, we can do that at home!), but Evan and I agree that catching a pair of strangers locking lips i…
