 Episode 109: How to Pretend to Be Busy | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:47:21

We all have our tricks for looking busy in the workplace to get through those slower days without anyone getting on your back. Here are ours! No, not here. In the episode. Press “Play” and listen to it. Okay, fine, you want a teaser? Full on body surgery. Make yourself look like Howard from Accounts Receivable. You get into a Face-Off situation, no one knows whats going on, that’s bound to eat up like an hour at least. However long it takes them to ask you something only Howard would know. I’ve never seen Face-Off. Thanks so much to Bryan Lee for the music this week! If you enjoyed Clementine by Bryan, go to his Instagram!

 Episode 106: How to Steal The Declaration of Independence | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:41:28

Nicolas Cage’s character in National Treasure may be a true misogynist, but all that says to us is that his job in the film can be done better the second time.

 Episode 105: How to Stay Occupied at Home | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:53:25

We’re all stuck at home and it sucks. But if we all pool our tactics for fighting boredom, we can get through this thing.

 Episode 100: How to Fill the Down-Time Capsule | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 01:05:38

“East High is a place where teachers encouraged us to break the status quo and define ourselves as we choose. Where a jock can cook up a mean crème brûlée, and a brainiac can break it down on the dance floor. It’s a place where one person, if it’s the right person, changes us all. East High is having friends we’ll keep for the rest of our lives, and that means we really are ‘all in this together.’ Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat!” -Troy Bolton, High School Musical 3 Thank you to Lileth for our music for our 100th episode!

How much money have you thrown away because you were too late to cancel a subscription after a free trial? I’m pretty sure I’m still paying for HBO even though Game of Thrones is over and there’s no chance that it’s gonna get any better. If only there were a 45-50min program that I could listen to and relate with about this. Thanks to Jellyfish Tango for the music this week!

 Episode 95: How to Stay Motivated | File Type: audio/x-m4a | Duration: 00:53:24

Quick TW for people who get squeamish at the mention of blood, We talk about blood like WAY more than anyone thought we would or should in an episode about staying motivated. Also, Goop; so if that’s offensive to you, then AVOID. If that’s not a good summary of an episode of Downtime, I don’t know what is. Thank you so much to Katie Ferrara for her song Weightless!
