Hot Cross Buns 135: Solid Foundation, Secret Prompts

Hey guys, before we left for vacation, our editor was supposed to grab a hard drive so he could edit the podcast while on said vacation. The editor, who shall not be named, forgot to grab said hard drive. So now we're here, four days late and so many dollars short. Sorry, we know you missed us so much, it won't happen again, unless it does.

 

This week on the best podcast, we laughed, we killed bugs, we did stupid voices, and we talked about Nicki Minaj. That's it, maybe just don't even listen, it was kinda boring. OR WAS IT??? Go find out! Thank you for listening, we love you this much..................................................................... Sixty-nine dots long, that's a lot of love if you ask me.

Hot Cross Buns 134: Megan's Mystery, Batman, Dying on Hills

Breaking up without losing the friendship is delicate, but totally possible if you're honest, kind, and respectful. Here’s a step-by-step guide that can help, straight from Chat GPT:

---

1. Be Clear About Your Feelings

• Don’t give false hope. If you’re ending the romantic part of the relationship, be honest and clear about that.

• Example: “I care about you deeply, but I’ve realized I no longer feel the kind of connection I think we both deserve in a relationship.”

---

2. Acknowledge Their Feelings

• Breakups affect both people, even if you're the one initiating it.

• Let them express how they feel. Don’t try to fix their pain—just listen.

---

3. Explain That You Value the Friendship

• Be explicit. Say you still care and want them in your life in a meaningful way.

• Example: “You’re one of the most important people to me, and I’d love for us to stay in each other’s lives as friends.”

---

4. Give Them Space

• This is the hard part—but crucial.

• Even if you both want to stay friends, transitioning out of a romantic relationship takes time and emotional distance. Let them take the lead on how much space they need.

---

5. Redefine the Relationship

• When the time feels right (this could be weeks or months), check in and slowly rebuild your friendship from a new place.

• Do platonic things together. Avoid flirty behavior that could blur lines.

---

6. Respect the Outcome

• Some people can't be friends with an ex. If they decide they need to step away, let them go with love and grace. That is part of caring for them, too.

 

Thank you for listening!! These descriptions will just get lazier and lazier if people keep ignoring them.

Hot Cross Buns 133: Platypus, Who's Catchphrase is it, Feudal.

Hi, listen to the episode. You will laugh. Hopefully. 

 

Did you know that Feudal Japan was a period of history in Japanese? Many people think that "feudal" is the same thing as "futile"; it is, in fact, not even remotely close to the same. Feudal Japan refers to a period in Japanese history, roughly the 12th to 19th century. This is when the government was largely run by a system of military rule and land-based hierarchy similar to medieval Europe. There was an Emperor who really had no power and acted mainly as a figurehead, a Shogun, who had most of the military and political power, and the Daimyo, who were rich landlords, who were powerful enough to have their own armies. This was the time of Samurai, Shinobi(basically ninjas), and all the other crazy stereotypical Japanese things we see from movies and TV. This period lasted from around 1185 to 1868 and really only lasted because Japan was so closed off from the rest of the world. The end came about because the emperor regained power and then opened Japan up to the rest of the world. Also, crazy that around 60 years later, they wanted to kill everyone, or mostly everyone at least. HAHA!! Thank you for reading!! Oh, and listening, but that's secondary.

Hot Cross Buns 132: Cam's Clyde, Gorilla vs mans, Games

Hello, we've been trying to contact you about your car's soon-to-expire warranty. 

 

This week, the boys were tired bois, at least Jaymi and Carrington were. Regardlessly irregardless, we pressed on, because we could not let you, the wonderful, beautiful, hilarious listener, down. So we started with the hot topic of "1 Gorilla vs 100 Men", it was brain-deadening. After that, Clyde showed up, but with a twist! We played hypothetical trivia and then fell asleep smiling. It was beautiful. Thank you for listening. You may be making questionable decisions by doing so, but hey, at least we're here together.

Hot Cross Buns 130: Dirty 130, Androgynous Jaymi, Percy is WALKING

This one got a little heavy on the inuendos, sorry? 

 

I'm done. No more descriptions. From now on, I'll just write about interesting facts in history. Did you know Nordic Runes have more meaning than just being a letter? Each individual "letter" also has profound spiritual, emotional, and social meaning. The rune making the "S" sound in Elder Futhark, for example, also means sun or victory. Over time, especially after the Viking age, the language used by Danes, Swedes, and Norwegians diverged from each other due to outside cultural and religious influences, with runes dying out almost entirely, except in Sweden, where they were used until the 1800s! I just like the idea of letters inside of names having more, and deeper meaning than just their phonetic sounds. The Vikings were sick. Thank you for listening!! Also, if you read this, look up what the letters in your name mean in Elder Futhark. It's pretty friggen cool.

Hot Cross Buns 128: Ashes, How Dairy, Pirates

I think the title speaks for itself, wouldn't even need a description, plus nobody reads these things. So let's do some odd facts sharing. Facts telling? I'm gonna learn you some facts. Did you know in the 14th century during the black plague, many parts of Europe killed off dang near all of their cat and dog population? The belief was that since these animals carried fleas they had to be the source of the plague, and black cats have always been surrounded by superstitious weirdness. Ironically, this made the spread of the disease much worse, since the humans took away the natural predator of rats, which were the actual carriers of the plague, LOL am I right? Anyhowsers, thanks for listening and reading, nerd. Love you.

Hot Cross Buns 127: Games, Games, Jokes

This week, it was lively, maybe a bit too lively. Things were said, comments were made, and we might not come back from this one. We'll be fine though, right? We start off with our normal humdrum, Jaymi prattles on forever about some sacred tangent he had. Cameron talks about deporting everyone who has caused him minor inconvenience, and Carrington just sat there and giggled uncomfortably like a corporate stooge does. After that we get into the games, there are two, both were fun, but you'll have to listen to see what they are. That's listener retention babyyy!! Thank you for listening!! Please high five your dog for me.

Hot Cross Buns 126: Back to Poo, Sacred Tangents, Clyde.

Maturing is being able to hold multiple emotions at the same time. - Jaymi Cross

 

Hi, we hope this finds you well, not in a well, but more in the internal sense of the word. This week on your favorite podcast it was a blast, Jaymi talked and talked and talked about having a second podcast while Carrington and Cam just have to sit and listen as they are being betrayed. Then Clyde(your friendly neighborhood astral traveler) possessed Jaymi as payback for his betrayal. Other than that its more of what you expect from the three of us, giggling, poop jokes, and talking crap about celebrities. Thank you for listening, now go kiss your valentine.
