In this week's episode, we invite our recently married friends, Carolyn Alam and Elise Koelsch to chat with us! Visiting Los Angeles on their honeymoon from the great state of Michigan where Carolyn and Carson met (go blue) - the four of us cover coming out, dandyism, finally pulling the trigger on Dolly Parton's birthday, and #puremichigan.

Falyn, Carson, and their dear friend Johne Kilberg go nerd mode in this very sweet episode of Etcetera pod. Together they investigate anime, the sport of fencing, and how to choose a romantic partner based on your favorite ghibli film. Be prepared for lots of singing to our favorite musicals…

The gang welcomes Falyn’s old friend Tyler Lane to the pod where they discuss dating, natural wine, and being an equestrian. Tyler explains why he hated high school theater kids and unsuccessfully tries to convince Falyn to take an acting class. This episode is very wholesomely “LA.”

In this delightfully goofy episode of Etcetera, your hosts welcome their dear friend Jared, Florida native and King of “the wubs and dubs.” They discuss rave culture and how to get into it, haircuts, the difference between a threesome and an orgy, church dates, and how to stop people pleasing. Also, Quora…what is it??

The pals are joined by Christopher Pedraza, photographer and multi-talented musician extraordinaire to discuss being from Michigan and A Very Potter Musical. Carson and Falyn grill him on his zodiac big three, who pays on a first date, and what he would do in a zombie apocalypse. (Spoiler: He’d be bummed!) Check out his bands Parallels & Mr. Krabs on Instagram @iloveparallels & @mrkrabsla

Carson and Falyn welcome back their dear friend Jordan Terrell (aka Playboi Carti) for a redemption recording after the original episode was destroyed by the audio gods. They talk about the Great British Baking show (fuck, marry, kill), the incredible way in which Jordan starts her day, and how to find love in a sea of terrible, weird people. Stick around till the end to find out if Falyn rage quits Carson’s new trivia game segment. Or take the “L” and don’t! Rejection is redirection. Check out Jordan and her new single Quality @itsjordanterrell Special shoutout to @soulconnectionla!

Carson and Falyn get vulnerable in this solo episode. They discuss the humiliating phenomenon that is Spotify Wrapped, the reasons behind Carson’s name change, and the weird way men act in today’s sociopolitical climate. Falyn gives a TedX talk on Hinge Theory while they analyze Carson’s newly updated dating profile. Can you guess how many times they say the word “nuance” in this episode? It’s a lot. Here's Carson's newsletter about their name change: https://mostlymisc.substack.com/p/209-ciao-bello Follow us on Instagram: @_etc_pod @falynthelazarus @mostly_misc

Continuing on with their conversation, Carson, Falyn, and their guest Risha discuss being bullied into gender expression, the nuances between “chapstick” and “futch” (what is the difference???) and how everyone’s literally just a baby. Falyn and Risha continue to bond further after finding out their moms are both Geminis with Leo ascendants. Carson is still there.

This episode is so packed with hilarity they had to split it in half. Carson and Falyn welcome comedian and future President Risha on the pod to discuss being queer, dating men, and the psychological nuances of fandom. Listeners are encouraged to drink every time Carson gets cut off as Falyn and Risha flirt shamelessly and bond over astrology. @rsiha on instagram

Falyn is considering selling semi-nudes on the internet and Carson knows more about Theater than Falyn ever will. Join your hosts as they chat with their friend Rebby (and Anand) about gender, the dangers and joys of sex work, and the Model Minority Myth.

Falyn and Carson welcome Alex Myers as their first guest of the season to talk allyship, healthy masculinity, and how to make the most out of your Reddit account. They dive into horoscopes, Falyn’s problems with the Barbie movie, Carson’s blindspot road rage, and Alex’s hatred of Trader Joe’s parking lots. If you like Scorpio men with Golden Retriever energy, this episode is for you.

Making her debut as Etcetera's new cohost, Falyn interviews Kirsi about the origins of the podcast, finding queer community, and their complicated love of being American. From PBR to pubic hair, Falyn and Kirsi bond over the complexities of being quirky humans in female bodies.

Happy Tuesday, we are back with episode 5 starring Pilar Duralde! We talk about the use of social media in the city of Los Angeles, the rules of airport dress imposed upon us, and queer signaling.

Buckle up! 'Cause in this episode, Falyn Lazarus and I take you on a wild ride through existing at the same time as cancel culture, how to balance reality with social media, and reparations.
