SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
What is up, y’all! Welcome back to another soulful, candid, and hilarious episode of Damn We Grown with your favorite hosts, Mike and Tiff!
Look, adulting already comes with enough bills, rent, and taxes to make you question everything—but what happens when you realize the game isn’t even played on an even field? This week, we are diving deep into the crazy world of double standards and breaking down how life treats us differently depending on gender, race, and tax brackets.
From the parenting divide—where dads get standing ovations for doing basic grocery runs while moms carry the entire invisible mental load—to the corporate ladder where assertive men are praised as "leaders" while women get labeled "difficult" or "aggressive", we’re laying it all out on the table. We also tackle the financial double standard: why a corporate bailout is celebrated as a "strategic stimulus," but everyday families seeking assistance get judged, and how the wealthy legally leverage tax loopholes while the rest of us just try to keep up.
Before we get into the heavy stuff, we catch you up on real life:
- Celebrating Maddi officially becoming a teenager (and Mike prepping for "the talk" about teenage boys).
- Inflation woes: Surviving $6 gas in California and dropping major coins for a few cans of beans at Aldi.
- Wild news headlines, including the viral story of a woman secretly living in a 24-hour gym for two years, and an endurance athlete who took the phrase "finishing the race at all costs" entirely too far.
- Mike reminisces about meeting Tiff’s family for the first time 25 years ago—and how being late almost got him karate-chopped on Christmas!
- Listen & Stream: Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you stream your podcasts.
