Constellation, Episode 31 | Heartbreak, Ice Cream, Life/Work Balance
Added 2023-08-07 16:00:11 +0000 UTCThis week, we present to you a Constellation with only a trio of participants: Colin (but no Dagan, who's on vacation with his family), joined by The Washington Post's Gene Park and LSM coordinator and shopkeep Micah Watson. Gene brings a heavy topic to the show this week in the form of heartbreak. What's our history when it comes to the dramatic and traumatic ends-of-relationships? Meanwhile, Micah strives to balance the scale with something much more lighthearted: Ice cream. Which flavor is best, and in which form? What toppings speak to us? Who makes the best ice cream, period? Not surprisingly, there's much to say. Finally, Colin wants to confront an ever-present issue confounding people around the world: A striking lack of life-work balance. As he continues to seek it more in his everyday life, he asks how others find the middle-ground, and work to live instead of live to work.

Micah, project management (adult babysitting) is the worst. Trying to get people to do their jobs an/or communicate well is highly frustrating. Stay golden pony….girl.

2023-08-25 00:59:45 +0000 UTCAs someone who grew up in Maine, went to college in Rhode Island, and lived in Boston, I'm starting to wonder about western Massachusetts. Based on Micah's accent and terminology, I'm not sure it should be considered part of New England.

2023-08-16 21:35:44 +0000 UTCI randomly decided to use an old Graeter's ice cream gift card I had before listening to this. Forgot how good premium ice cream is. And Micah, if you're in the Midwest around Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, Graeter's offers dairy free ice cream too. I'd say my favorite hard ice cream flavor is mint cookies and cream, with Black Raspberry chocolate chip growing on me. Favorite soft serve flavor is smurf (Kings Island blue ice cream).

2023-08-15 10:18:09 +0000 UTCLSM, I think it is time for a politics podcast. Anyone here agree? With such a politically diverse group it would be one of the most interesting and refreshing political casts out there.

2023-08-11 02:16:36 +0000 UTCI've been happily married for six years but I still think about a particularly messy break-up I went through in college. Shit can fuck you up.

2023-08-08 23:50:20 +0000 UTCThere went my dream of a Colin Moriarty and Ben Kissell crossover someday that would make zero sense lmao

2023-08-08 18:24:19 +0000 UTCMaybe it's because I've been watching/reading/listening to True Crime stuff since I was a kid but whenever I hear "body count" it makes me think of serial killers. Lol
Josh Gamez
2023-08-08 16:13:49 +0000 UTCAnd I really feel like their humor actually lines up pretty well (him and Ben are basically the same person at times lol). I almost wonder if the name itself turned him off.

2023-08-07 19:32:52 +0000 UTCShocked to hear that Colin doesn't like Last Podcast on the Left, as it is the only podcast network I hold in higher esteem than LSM.
Avery Illies
2023-08-07 19:14:09 +0000 UTCIs there anyway you guys can do timestamps for the different topics on Constellation? Not because I want to skip topics, but because there are some topics I want to play for my wife later on

2023-08-07 19:10:05 +0000 UTCHearing Colin’s relationship history really hits home for me. I’ve lived through some similar experiences and they were tough. One in particular really fucked me up for awhile To quote the poem: “There are worse things than being alone… …there is nothing worse than too late”

2023-08-07 17:04:04 +0000 UTCMatty was probably busy with his channel. I think that's twice he left you hanging.
