  • Ep. 120 - Goblin Hospitality & Heatwave Survival
    2026/03/27

    It’s hot. Like… offensively hot. And in this sweat-soaked episode of Well Being, Theo and Kel return (sans Andy, who is once again booked and busy) to talk surviving the heat, thriving on set, and finding inspiration in the chaos.

    Sparks are flying this week:

    • Theo’s fresh off nearly two weeks on set, soaking in that creative camaraderie and rediscovering the magic of production life

    • A dive into the surprisingly fun Wonder Man series and why industry insight changes everything

    • Kel brings the heat with Age of Attraction, a reality dating experiment that asks: what happens when you remove age from the equation? (Spoiler: it gets wild)

    • Fitness arcs, early morning hikes, and prepping for Beyond Wonderland with next-level perler creations

    Then the crew shifts into the mental health portion, continuing their journey through Goblin Mode: A Guide to Life—this time tackling Goblin Hospitality.

    Why don’t we invite people over?

    Why does everything have to be perfect first?

    And who are we really trying to impress?

    They unpack:

    • The myth of the “perfect home”

    • Childhood conditioning around hosting

    • The pressure of appearances vs. the reality of connection

    • Why your friends care more about you than your countertops

    It’s messy. It’s honest. It’s deeply relatable.

    Because at the end of the day…

    your friends aren’t home inspectors—they just want to see you.

  • Ep. 119 - Goblin Law & Wizard Walls
    2026/03/01

    This week on Well Being, Theo and Andy are flying duo while Kel gets dragged into the mortal realm of work. But fear not — because we’ve got Sparks of Inspiration that span animated mysticism to 70s detective brilliance.

    Theo celebrates a holy day of personal significance: a new album drop from Gorillaz, complete with an 8-minute hand-drawn short and vinyl variants acquired like sacred relics. Meanwhile, Andy falls headfirst into an unexpected obsession with Columbo, discovering that the pilot was directed by a baby-faced Steven Spielberg — and realizing procedural television hasn’t quite felt the same since.

    From there? We spiral (lovingly) into:

    • Wizard-core aesthetics and curated maximalism

    • Dream homes vs. the homes we actually live in

    • Victorian manors, arcade basements, gothic rod iron fences

    • Jacuzzi tubs as emotional reset chambers

    • The quiet mental health impact of “keeping up appearances”

    • And of course… an extended Doctor Who corner featuring David Tennant, Rose heartbreak, Donna supremacy, and why some regenerations are better left skipped.

    In our Mental Health portion, we dive deeper into Goblin Mode Guide to Life, unpacking what it means to unlearn performative perfection — especially when it comes to how our homes “should” look. What if comfort mattered more than presentation? What if your house reflected your inner wizard instead of HOA expectations?

    Episode 119 is part nostalgia spiral, part aesthetic manifesto, part detective dissection — and fully us.

    Light a candle. Build a hidden room. Question your lawn.

    Be well. And don’t let them tell you you need to change… just because you’re feeling a little strange.

  • Ep. 118 - Goblin Mode Activated: Cleanliness, Chaos & The TARDIS
    2026/02/24

    This week on Well Being, it’s a two-man weave as Theo and Andy hold it down while Kel is off adventuring.

    We kick things off with Sparks of Inspiration — a full-blown British invasion. Andy dives deep into the worlds of Doctor Who (Tenet, Eccleston, and Matt Smith runs secured) while revisiting the magic of Harry Potter on Audible. Rose. Donna. Martha. Regret. Redemption. Giant bees (apparently).

    Meanwhile, Theo returns to the haunting beauty and brutal difficulty of Hollow Knight, embracing the pain in hopes that maybe — just maybe — this is the run where he finally beats it.

    Then we pivot into the Mental Health Portion, continuing our Goblin Mode exploration. But this time? We dig into Goblin Core.

    What does it mean to live in “organized chaos”?

    Is goblin energy unclean… or just uncurated?

    Where did our internal pressure to keep a staged, company-ready home come from?

    Childhood? Culture? Pinterest perfection?

    We unpack:

    • The difference between messy and dirty

    • Why dishes feel like a moral failing

    • Bathroom hypocrisy

    • The guilt spiral of “I should be cleaning”

    • And why no one has ever achieved enlightenment scrubbing a toaster oven

    From ornate mossy corners to cable-filled doom boxes, this episode explores the tension between aesthetic chaos and internalized shame — and whether we can build homes that reflect who we actually are instead of who we think we’re supposed to be.

    So light a candle, embrace the goblin within, and remember:

    Cleanliness might not be next to godliness… but self-compassion probably is.

  • Ep. 117 - Goblin Homes & Highlight Reels
    2026/02/14

    This week on Well Being, Theo and Kel roll deep in a two-man squad while Andy gets pulled back into the capitalist void.

    We kick things off with Sparks of Inspiration:

    📚 Theo finishes Dungeon Crawler Carl: Doomsday Scenario and immediately needs book three injected into his veins.

    🌌 Star Wars Outlaws is finally clicking.

    🗡️ Hollow Knight gets resurrected (again).

    🎬 And Kel experiments with Montage Editing in Final Cut — confronting vertical video, anamorphic squeeze lenses, and the existential crisis of “Do I make people turn their phones sideways?”

    Then we shift into Goblin Mode.

    What does your ideal home say about you?

    Are Pinterest-perfect interiors inspiring… or quietly shaming?

    Is clutter a failure — or proof that your life is actually being lived?

    The guys unpack:

    • Minimalist chic vs curated maximalism

    • Secret passage mansions and Resident Evil dream homes

    • Candid photos vs perfectly composed misery

    • Millennials and the art of “Well… at least we’re not on fire”

    • Why productivity feels impossible when your space isn’t your nest

    • And the difference between a house that’s impressive and a house that’s yours

    Turns out, maybe the goal isn’t a perfect home.

    Maybe it’s a home that reflects you — cobwebs, scratched couches, tech upgrades, goblin corners and all.

    Be well. Even if your rug’s clawed up. Even if the clutter’s winning. Even if you’re still figuring out where the hell everything goes.

    Just cause you’re feeling a little strange… doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

  • Ep.116 - Breaking the Rules (and Lowering the Stakes)
    2026/02/06

    January finally let go of our ankles, and Well Being is back on the other side of the longest month known to humankind. This week’s Sparks of Inspiration are absolutely stacked: Kel somehow watches five movies in one week, we talk Sinners, Weapons, One Battle After Another, Superman (2025), and why modern stabilization might be robbing car chases of their soul. Andy revisits Schitt’s Creek and gets hyped for the Super Bowl halftime show, while Theo dives headfirst into Dungeon Crawler Carl, a book series that feels like Running Man meets Hitchhiker’s Guide with max chaos energy.

    From there, we roll straight into the mental health portion, pulling from Rick Rubin’s The Creative Act: A Way of Being to unpack one of the book’s biggest chapters: Rules. The rules we’re taught. The rules we inherit. The ones we don’t even realize we’re following. We talk perfectionism, lowering the stakes, creative pressure, and how unconscious rules can quietly suffocate joy, collaboration, and experimentation.

    We reflect on breaking out of rigid structures, rediscovering play, and why sometimes the best move is to throw away the old playbook—without losing the skills you earned along the way. Creativity, mental health, teamwork, and the radical idea that maybe you’re allowed to do things your way.

    No absolutes. No averages. Just testing the rules and seeing what happens.

  • Ep. 115 - Intentions, Algorithms, and Turning Your Fing Phone Sideways*
    2026/01/29

    The whole gang is finally back together, and the vibes are immaculate—slightly unhinged, deeply thoughtful, and very anti-vertical video.

    This week’s Sparks of Inspiration bounce all over the place: Shrinking season three turning into an accidental five-episode binge, Royal Rumble confusion at 9am, Resident Evil retrospectives, the absolute joy of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and a bold creative stance that may change everything: turn your damn phone sideways.

    In the mental health portion, we return to The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin and unpack the idea of intention—why care matters, why friction isn’t always the enemy, and whether making things “easier” actually drains them of meaning. From perfectionism and creative paralysis to algorithms, organization chaos, and starting literally anything, the conversation gets honest, vulnerable, and surprisingly funny.

    We talk about hiding feelings in characters, making art through anguish, being a creative instrumentalist in a much bigger cosmic orchestra, and why sometimes the best move is just dumping everything into the timeline and seeing what survives.

    It’s a joyful mess. It’s thoughtful. It’s a reminder that the work isn’t the point—the intention is.

    🎧 Sparks fly

    🧠 Mental health gets weird

    🎨 Art gets vulnerable

    📱 Vertical video gets roasted

    Welcome back to Well Being.

  • Ep. 114 - Goblin Mode, Game Grinds, and a Disney Engagement
    2026/01/23

    Being persists.

    This week, we kick things off with Sparks of Inspiration, diving deep into gaming obsessions as Theo continues his Resident Evil marathon in preparation for RE9, revisits the chaotic joy of Resident Evil Village, and discovers the hilarious, unexpectedly heartfelt world of Dungeon Crawler Carl. Kel shares finishing his latest Star Wars run, thoughts on the Fallout series (including some side-eye at the Brotherhood of Steel), and why Walton Goggins is absolutely unstoppable.

    Then—big life update alert 🚨—Kel tells the full story of his Disneyland engagement, complete with castle photos, sneaky family coordination, Magic Bands, and an accidental masterclass on how to get a hundred professional engagement photos for the price of a Lightning Lane pass. It’s wholesome, chaotic, and extremely on brand.

    In our mental health portion, we continue our Goblin Mode series, exploring what it means to create a home that feels curated, cozy, automated, and lived-in. We unpack ideas of organization vs. chaos, shared living spaces, renter limitations, smart lighting obsessions, and the emotional weight we attach to “having things in their place.” Is a tidy home actually peace—or just another expectation we’re supposed to live up to?

    As always, we wrap with reflection, humor, and permission to exist somewhere between mossy goblin cave and hyper-organized Pinterest dream.

    Be well. 🖤

  • Ep. 113 - Goblin at Home: Work-Life Balance, Creative Curation, and Letting Things Be
    2026/01/18

    All the things. Everything. All at once.

    Welcome back to Well Being.

    This week it’s just Theo and Andy holding down the fort as they ease back into rhythm after the holidays. Sparks of Inspiration kick things off with glass-blowing competition shows, Edgar Wright rewatches, heavy video game rotations, and spinning the wheel on nightly comfort gaming.

    In the mental health portion, the conversation turns toward work-life balance, respecting time off, setting boundaries with notifications, and why focusing on one meaningful goal might be healthier than chasing a dozen at once. The two reflect on resolutions, therapy check-ins, burnout, and learning how to actually rest without guilt.

    From there, it’s full Goblin Mode. The discussion explores what it means to feel truly at home—maximalism vs. minimalism, curated clutter, creative spaces, rotating collections, and why “less is more” doesn’t always apply to people who love their stuff. From coffee setups and office reorganization to lightsabers on the wall, this episode embraces comfort, personality, and building spaces that reflect who you are right now.

    It’s cozy, reflective, a little chaotic, and very goblin.

    Be well. Just ’cause you’re feeling a little strange.
