Happy Pride, Messy Mob!! Writer, comedian Taylor Tomlinson came to play! Brandon and "Tay Tay" imagine a hypothetical "queer-platonic" marriage, debate location sharing etiquette, and Taylor shares one of the most surprising turns a hookup has ever taken in Messy's history.

Happy Pride! Taylor Tomlinson discusses queerplatonic partnerships, psychadelics, being gay in church, and a hookup confession that deserves its own emergency group chat.

Sarah Jones came to the couch and left us speechless. The Tony-winning performer gets radically honest about how she's been "cheating" on every partner—not with another person, but with a fantasy version of who they could become. From there, we spiral into the messy truth about workaholism as a post-traumatic inherited response (yes, she connects it all the way back), and why Trisha Hersey's Rest Is Resistance is the book that changed everything. We dig into messy mail from a listener carrying heartbreak they can't shake, and Sarah delivers the kind of advice that will inspire you to write the text you're waiting for him to send, and send it to yourself. Plus: grief doesn't come with a timeline, quitting is a boss move, therapy shouldn't be your whole identity, and a whispered truth like soup for the soul.

Sarah Jones reveals she's been cheating on every partner with their potential, unpacks how workaholism is really inherited trauma from enslaved ancestors, and drops the self-love hack of texting yourself the message you're waiting for someone else to send.

Brandon has questions, concerns, and possibly a group chat theory. Drake just gave us what feels like a 43-song therapy session, and Brandon would like to know who’s taking notes, who’s holding space, and whether snacks were provided. Also, if you didn’t vote, this may not be your safe space right now.

This Memorial Day Weekend Messy Bonus also features a clip from Brandon’s conversation with Dr. Vanessa Marin on cheating with AI Girlfriends, and a longevity study. Then Brandon makes the case again for scheduling sex — because “spontaneous” is cute until everyone is tired, booked, resentful, and lying.

Stay for the Waymo conspiracy theory. Don’t ask questions. Just listen.
