Read Receipts & The Panic Spiral of “I Miss You” | #088
Secondhand Therapy - A podcast by PonyBear Studios - Mondays

Louie’s off keto and melting down over Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but it quickly becomes clear this episode isn’t really about cereal. What starts as a goofy check-in turns into a full-blown emotional audit — from the weight of unsaid feelings to the desperate scramble to fix something you maybe just made worse. The guys unravel the difference between:<ul><li>"How can I talk to you better?" vs. "What can we do differently?"</li><li>Selfless care vs. reputation management</li><li>Guilt-driven repair vs. genuine accountability</li></ul>They dissect what it means to feel dismissed, how panic can hijack your intention, and why changing how you speak to someone isn’t always love — sometimes it’s self-erasure. It’s funny, it’s chaotic, and Also featuring:<br />– “You hit me with a baseball!”<br />– Weaponized ‘I miss you’s<br />– A fake breakup that feels a little too real<br />– Love on the spectrum<br />– And Michael finally realizing he’s never actually thought before speaking 🙃<br /><br />Support the pod:<br /><a href="http://patreon.com/secondhandtherapypod" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://patreon.com/secondhandtherapypod</a><br /><a href="http://secondhandtherapypod.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://secondhandtherapypod.com</a><br /><br />Follow us here: <br /><a href="http://instagram.com/secondhandtherapypod" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://instagram.com/secondhandtherapypod</a><br /><a href="http://tiktok.com/@secondhandtherapypod" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://tiktok.com/@secondhandtherapypod</a><br /><a href="http://instagram.com/itsloubear" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://instagram.com/itsloubear</a><br /><a href="http://instagram.com/malonecomedy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://instagram.com/malonecomedy</a><br /><br />Contact us:<br /><a href="https://gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">[email protected]</a><br /><a href="https://tel:818" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">818-850-2448</a><br />PO BOX 230595, Las Vegas, NV 89105
