KP nearly gets taken out by chewing gum, which somehow leads us into rubber mulch at playgrounds, convincing Backstage Ben’s mom to get a tattoo, and KP’s very questionable choice of “real” bedtime stories for her nine-year-old. We also wonder if we’ve finally hit our limit with true crime. Just another normal Group Chat with Jeff, KP & Backstage Ben.

Benny's mom has become a regular listener and we're not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Jeff talks about missing the simple comfort of having someone to watch TV and movies with, while the gang debates whether Handsome Jon is operating as intended. We also get into Benny's impressive self-control with his phone, KP's indecisive cold, and why sending KP out on location unsupervised may no longer be an option. Tune in for another week of questionable decisions and highly scientific observations.

KP reveals she missed most of the classic high school science dissections, which sends us down a rabbit hole of fetal pigs, frogs, and all the things that somehow seemed normal in science class. We debate the greatness of diet pop, revisit the old "cigarettes in the fridge" era, and learn more than we expected about difficult pregnancies. Plus, Jeff considers the reality of a group hot yoga class, and KP shares an unforgettable story involving a less-than-ideal experience in Mexico. As usual, things go off the rails quickly.

Group Chat - Episode 25 - Thurs, Oct 15/26

Backstage Ben admits he doesn't check the mirror before leaving the house, sparking a debate about morning routines and whether anyone actually knows what they look like anymore. We also get into the surprisingly heated world of dog food, why vet visits are somehow more stressful for pet owners than pets, and whether Jeff should just shave his head or finally book a hair-transplant trip to Turkey. Plus, KP takes an introvert/extrovert test and the results may surprise everyone.
