Adam, What is Wanted? (#211)

It finally happened. After five years of teasing it, Doug’s brother Adam joins the podcast—and it's everything we hoped for and more.

We dive deep into childhood hallucinations (or were they?), the mysterious and possibly imaginary Mitch Wrangler, and the shared false memory of eating rocks on the playground. Things get even weirder as we relive our first temple experiences—from sandwich board nudity and oily rubdowns to the surreal moment of receiving our secret new names (RIP Doug → Dan).

And yeah... we’re still trying to figure out what “loud laughter” even means.

Topics Include:

• Temple names and secret oaths
• Sibling memories and shared hallucinations
• The trauma and comedy of the endowment ceremony
• Missions, guilt, and sincerity
• Cold hot dogs + bologna + peanut butter
• Our very own Backstreet Boys moment in Vegas
• The forbidden story of the Testicle Festival
• Forgetting your name at the veil
