Joe finally manages to convince Nate of the evils of math! Definitely check out this episode of the Rich Roll Podcast with Susan David!

Nate and Joe sit by the fire and chat about windows, wounds, and how grace is the real revolution.  

Isn't it funny how long 5 minutes can seem when you're talking about peeing? Or how how short it feels when you're talking about a great movie you saw? This week on Pillow Talk, Nate and Joe have 10 things each to talk about, and only 5 minutes to talk about each one.  Would you like a free copy of "A Day In the Life of Marlon Bundo"?

Nate and Joe are live on the internets once again. This was the second time Pillow Talk was live streamed, and Nate and Joe had all the fun. Dragons were involved. Also, Joe has selective name pronunciation. Nate gets vurclenched. Dragons (steadily becoming the mascot of PTNJ). Joe has a type. And Nate makes a prediction.   This is the song that Nate sings towards the end. Have you visited the new PTNJ homepage? Want to help the podcast?

Joe is a pacifist. He truly believes in a non-violent approach to all aspects of his life. When Nate and Amanda sat him down to teach him how to play MTG, Joe was skeptical. And then, for the first play through, he was confused. But then, during the second epic duel, he was out for blood. In this extra geeky episode, Nate and Joe give you glorious play by play action as Nate and Amanda rekindle there love of the game, and Joe unlocks a new side of himself. Also, Nate doesn’t want Joe to bend his corners. Bennett is a Penguin. Nate and Joe Assemble the Avengers. Joe forgets how to read the ingredients. Bennett finds a whole band. Nate makes a quantitative error. Joe needs a drink. And Amanda doesn't know what to promote. As always, this duel was brought to you by Vagisil! Join us for Pillow Talk Game Night at WUCC in Newport News on March 24 at 6 PM! We're on Stitcher! Subcribe and share it with a friend.

On this week's delicious, nutritious, and hopefully comforting epiosde of Pillow Talk, Nate and Joe do a deep dive on suffering, satisfaction, love, hate, indifference, and how to be more creative. And Joe says the 'p' word. Alot.  Would you guys be interested in a Pillow Talk book club? Let's read Todd McGowan's book, Capitalism and Desire! Listen to the Fundamentalists! Feeling stressed?

Infamous podcast guest, and all around wonderful human, Steve Adcox has been hosting Geekfest since 1982. It started as a way for some college friends to stay in touch and have an outlet for their geeky proclivities. It has since grown into an epic weekend, happening once a year, where 3 generations of people play games of all sorts. While we were recording, there was MTG, D&D, and a ton of PC and console gaming happening simultaneously. Needless to say, the soil was fertile for some extra geeky conversation. We talked about dice, dragons, card games, dragons, 3D printing, dragons, penis cookies, how Joe doesn't do dragons, board games, more dragons, and so much more! Get into some comfy PJs, dragon themed of course, and cuddle up with your favorite pillow and enjoy GEEK FEST 36!! Also, check out this podcast for more about dragons. The good bit starts at 15:30.

Some times Nate and Joe just need to get stuff done. Every once in a while, Joe just needs to pull out his old school day planner and just write stuff down. And Nate just needs to belch. To be fair, it's only after Joe stuffs him full of tasty, and/or downright problematic, carbonated beverage. Needless to say, businessing is not Nate and Joe's strong suit. And yet, we persist. And belch. And get judged by long time fan, Lynsie. Hi Lynsie! You need some Shitless Painter in your life. Join us for the first ever Pillow Talk Game Night on March 24th, time TBD, at Warwick UCC in Newport News! Let us know what you think Joe should do with his new domain names!

Occasionally, maybe only a precious few times in a life, you meet someone, completely by chance, that utterly changes the course of your life. Nate has been working with Roxann and Next Reflex Dance Collective since 2013. At the beginning of the year, Roxann asked Nate to make some music for a piece she created called "Under The Lemon Tree". For the inaugural performance, Nate talked Roxann into being on the podcast! She had no idea what she was in for. As per usual, we didn't edit, so there are many appearances by childrens. This is real life, y'all. Also, so was home, while Nate and Roxann were up in Fairfax, so Joe joined in via Facebook Messenger. You don't get to hear his normal sonorous voice in full this week. Check out Dance Party at the Planetarium by the Intrepid Trio, featuring Nate!

Joe and Amanda, the Pillow Talk Den Mother, help Nate with his pipes. For "Under the Lemon Tree", of course. Nate cuts some pipe. Amanda cuts some pipe. Joe caresses some pipe. Nate measures some pipe. Joe cuts some pipe. Nate erects some pipe. Amanda handles some pipe. Nate draws on some pipe. Also, Amanda has cassingles. Nate sings all your favorite 90’s hits. Joe wears flannel. Nate has a hot take. Nate and Siri can’t remember Hocus Pocus. And Nate has a bad top case.

The first thing that you should know about this episode is that Joe was super sick. There is lots of coughing and sniffling. The second thing you should know is that this might be the most vulnerable both Nate and Joe have been yet. Both have had significant experiences recently, Nate with Jacob Collier, and Joe with "Call Me By Your Name", that have left our hosts questioning. This is an episode about looking into the past in order to find the way forward, about unlocking and embracing wounds. And magic.  As your listening to this, there is a Super Mega Awesome Thread for this episode on Pillowtalkians. We really want to hear from you guys. What in this episode resonated with you? Have you had any experiences like these. How do you feel about magic? Let's discuss! Go listen to Visions of Gideon!
