Listen Now

Joe and Andy discuss life in their thirties, the desire for additional responsibilities, and the joy of bubbles.

We are excited to announce that after nearly 11 months of silence, we have recorded a new episode. Listen to Andy and Joe talk about having structure in life, the perils of alone time, and Joe's experience living in New Orleans!

Our guest today is Mark Saxenmeyer.    Mark is a former television reporter who now runs a non profit journalistic production house, the Reporters Inc. Like many of our listeners, Mark is an active Facebook user.    In this episode, Joe interviews Mark about the impact social media can have on our psyche and on our real life relationships.      Plus, the Half Jews get sponsored. 

Joe interviews musician Courtney Yasmineh on the challenges and rewards on jumping into her passion without looking back. 

Why do we make bad choices when we know there are better alternatives? And how can we get in the habit of avoiding bad choices all together? Andy and Joe discuss this and more in Episode 5. 

In this episode the Anxious Half Jews discuss the discontinuity we often find between our expectations and reality.  Also - Andy introduces a lovely metaphor involving a boat.   

Joe talks with our friend River about healthy and unhealthy ways to respond to a break-up. We invite Anxious Half Jew’s web designer Ryan Fortune behind the mic to share his thoughts, and Andy tries his best to be a mature, empathetic, friend amidst it all.

Andy and Joe introduce themselves and their reasons behind starting Anxious Half Jews. 

Joe Weise is a pretty happy guy. He lives with his family in a little cabin in Minnesota's North Woods and leads outdoor adventures with students year round. When he's not tromping around the woods, he's likely training for one of his 100 mile trail races. In this episode, Joe shares his insights on finding happiness and contentment in life, why he runs ultra marathons, and how getting stuck in a rut isn't inherently bad.
