Pessimism At Its Finest

Where have I been loca? Well, busy getting older! I have returned from Wrestlemania 40 and I am here to (kinda) tell the tale. I talk about Wrestlecon, whether staying in an airbnb or Hotel is a better choice, WWE World, Walemania, The WWE Hall of Fame, Joe’s Tailgate, and Wrestlemania 40 in Philadelphia. I have more to say about it and I may touch on it later but I wanted to chat about the positive experiences I had.  I have also been captivated by Kristin Cavallari and Mark from the Montana Boyz relationship. So, I chat about that for a bit.  I hope that you enjoy this little catch up from me!

It is the first episode of 2024 and it is an interview with Daniel Toujours, the author of “Ghosts of the Wilderness: An Everyday Guy’s Search for America’s Rare and Elusive Wildlife”. This episode took me a while to release as I wanted to finish his book prior to release (and editing is always a long game for me). I really enjoyed the book and recording this episode! I learned so much! Daniel gives us many nuggets of information from how he started his hiking adventures, the different types of rock art (petroglyph and pictograph), animals he found in nature, acclimatization, the TMZ/30 mile zone, and finding ticks after hikes. I truly enjoyed this interview with Daniel and I think that you will also enjoy.

This is the outro to my 2023. This was not my year at all. I created a vision board for this year to make sure that I document the things that I want to do in 2024. This will be the year that I accomplish some remaining goals and dreams in the last year of my 20s! See all of you lovelies in 2024!

I got my highschool made Instagram account hacked. I am one of the fortunate people who was able to get my Instagram account back after a hacking and it was exhausting, challenging, and quite depressing. It is almost like a legal case and if you are willing to do the work and have the correct information, you can also get through this slow and tedious process of getting an instagram account back. In this episode, I tell the story of how I got my deactivated Instagram account hacked, the process of getting my Instagram account back, important information that you should know in the event that this ever happens to you, and conclusion of where I am at today. This is the email that I used to contact Instagram to get the ball rolling: support@instagram.com  I hope that this episode helps someone out there who is going through the stressful situation of having an Instagram account hacked. It's more common than you think. P.S. KNOW YOUR ACCOUNT CENTRE INFORMATION. Know the date you created the account. This will save you so much stress and anxiety.  Follow the Podcast Instagram: @pessimismatitsfinest  https://www.instagram.com/pessimismatitsfinest/  Anchor: https://anchor.fm/pessimismpodcast    Email: pessimismpodcast@gmail.com   Website: https://pessimismatitsfinest.wordpress.com/    Twitter: @pessimismpod https://twitter.com/PessimismPod   Links: https://msha.ke/pessimismpodcast/ Intro Music by ItsWatR from Pixabay

I am here to defend myself and my choices! Yes, my number 1 most listened to artist of 2023 is WWE… and contrary to popular belief, I am not embarrassed about this. WWE is my favourite soundtrack in life and I will never stop listening to my favourites.  I just felt the need to create a bonus episode to defend my choices in music and the fact that this is my most listened to artist.  Lastly, Rihanna was my #2 and Bad Bunny was my #4 so that proves that I do have a diverse musical taste.

I am back! I took a break in October and now I am back to discuss how terrible my October was, The Golden Bachelor, and The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband.  Also, remember to change your location on Hinge when you travel. You may accidentally miss out on the love of your life.

IT IS THE END OF AN ERA! I am so sad and emotional. Hardin and Tessa are end game and we get to see Hardin’s journey to the end. Thank you Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin for an amazing run.  While this may be a controversial take, I did quite enjoy this film. While it kind of strayed from the original story line, I thought it was well executed, the cinematography was good, and its lead up to the conclusion was effective.  In this episode, I give my thoughts about the final After movie, as well as a recap of the film.  I rarely cry but I did cry at the end of this film and this podcast recording. I also forgot to discuss Tessa’s awful bangs at the end but thats for someone else to take on.  I used my live recording of James Bay’s live version of “Us”, the Hessa official song, as the intro to this episode because it was fitting.  Tell me what you think about the film! I will miss the fandom, despite the issues we had towards the end. All good things must come to an end.  P.S. Anna Todd has teased the writing of another Hessa novel, so maybe it isn’t so over for us all, AFTER ALL!

This episode starts with a critique of the efforts made by the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) to execute a Nickelback concert. It was giving FREE. Also, why are all of the film premieres during the day? How can us working peeps attend? Corrections must be made and this isn’t about the strike. We have a few days left and I think that things may turn around for the festival. The film selections are great though! I also discuss: “After Everything” will be released tomorrow! Chris Evans’ got secretly married!  More on Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet at the US Open Steven Tyler injured his vocal cords and I cannot see Aerosmith until 2024 Annie and Mau from Couples Therapy (if you want to watch a trainwreck). Here is a link to some of the chaos that ensues between this couple - https://youtu.be/kwseWFY-wIc?si=j4ZGQEu4b9e8lCpt  Socializing less to invest more time in my passion projects Hope that you all enjoy my musings!

No, I legit could not think about a more creative episode title. I have recorded this episode four times and I am still not committed to this content but it will have to do. In this episode, I discuss: The heat in the province of Ontario “After Everything” and the end of the “After” Movie Franchise Anna Todd’s potential new “After” series book My trip to St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador My Maid of Honour Dress disaster The City and Colour Concert Bray Wyatt’s passing Trish Stratus is the legit GOAT at WWE Payback Timothy Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at the Renaissance Concert Kanye West and Bianca vs the Venice Canals in Italy Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner divorce Why do we love Jacob Elordi so much?

I am back with a catch up style episode! In this episode, I discuss: where I have been lately, reading smut (Love Hypothesis and Salacious Players Club), being a Damsel in Distress, my new favourite cousin, my cousin’s wedding, saying a younger man is cute, my upcoming date, Kylie and Timothee, Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant, why I loved Bridgerton - Queen Charlotte's Story, my excitement for the Barbie movie, and my addiction to Roman Reigns.  See you at my follow up episode about my date this weekend!

It is finally Wrestlemania Weekend! I am so excited for the April 1 and 2 of Wrestlemania 39.

Zach gave us all the ick from singing with the worst vocal we have ever heard in our life. I cannot get over it. Love is Blind is back for Season 4 on Netflix. I wasn’t going to recap this but it was too good not too. The Mean Girls (Micah and Irina), Zach giving Irina the ick, Paul second guessing Micah, Micah second guessing breaking up with Kwame, Kwame not deserving Chelsea, Brett and Tiffany are immaculate vibes, I forgot Jackie and Marshall were even there, the pool party, the Zach and Irina break up, and Zach going back to Seattle to meet with Bliss.  I can’t wait for new episodes on March 31st!

I know I sound so dead in this episode but it's because I am legitimately exhausted. I am also partially distracted by the WWE Channel playing in the background. In this episode I discuss: Bullying my mom into ordering the WWE channel for meWhy I cannot understand the love triangle that is Hailey Bieber, Justin Bieber, and Selena GomezThe Kardashians are in their FLOP ERA and they will not be invited to the MET GalaDrama with the Cemetery Manager and Mausoleum Specialist, a 4 year story line (and a lesson in the world being a small place)My thoughts on Zach’s season of the BachelorWhy I don’t want a season 2 of “In Love All Over Again” on Netflix Follow the Podcast Instagram: @pessimismatitsfinest  https://www.instagram.com/pessimismatitsfinest/ Anchor: https://anchor.fm/pessimismpodcast Email: pessimismpodcast@gmail.com Website: https://pessimismatitsfinest.wordpress.com/ Twitter: @pessimismpod https://twitter.com/PessimismPod Links: https://msha.ke/pessimismpodcast/ Intro Music by Wataboi from Pixabay

I WILL NEVER LIKE COOPER! If you are #TeamCooper, this is not the episode for you! In this recap of Season 2 of the Netflix show, “Sex/Life” or “SexLife”. I will discuss episodes 1-6, my thoughts on all of the characters, and the happily ever after finale (which leads me to believe that there will be no season 3). As you know, this show is mainly sex scenes and it did not fail to deliver on those! We discuss the couples: Cooper and Bille, Cooper and Francesca, Billie and Majid, Brad and Billie, Brad and Gigi, and Sasha and Kam. Also, lets not forget the iconic and hilarious moment in Episode 6, 17 minutes and 41 seconds in (thank me later). This season had a better storyline than the first but it was not as well acted. I do love the ending and how everything came full circle. It was a good look into the nuances of marriage, first loves, happy endings, and second chances. Overall, I would rate season 2 a 3.5/5 (similar to my rating for season 1) Follow the Podcast Instagram: @pessimismatitsfinest  https://www.instagram.com/pessimismatitsfinest/ Anchor: https://anchor.fm/pessimismpodcast Email: pessimismpodcast@gmail.com Website: https://pessimismatitsfinest.wordpress.com/ Twitter: @pessimismpod https://twitter.com/PessimismPod Links: https://msha.ke/pessimismpodcast/ Intro Music by Wataboi from Pixabay

This episode is dedicated to Willie, the man who keeps on signing me up for spam emails. Happy New Year everyone! It is 2023 and I bring to you the first episode of the year! No, I do not have a vision board or plan for the year, but it will be great (Somehow)!  In this episode, I discuss the following: Kevin McCarthy and the US Speaker of the House Vote, my opinions on reading Reverse Harem books, my friend confusing Ireland with Irish Man, Prince Harry becoming an overnight meme sensation, Andrew Tate’s horrible song, and an overall podcast update.

Maybe you should start reading smut? It's important. In this episode, I post the outtakes from my episode with Antonio where we chat about Hero Fiennes Tiffin (and I tell you why my crush is now over), why more Men need to read smut, Harry Styles in “My Policeman”, Antonio’s Myers Briggs test results, and why dating is important. We hope that you laugh and you enjoy!!!! Antonio comes in at 11:15!!!

Antonio is back with his hot takes! This episode is an extension of Episode 59 - The King and Spadina Debate. In this episode, we discuss why I give off Hinge Vibes, Urban Planning Men being a Red Flag, Blundstones, communication on dating apps, and City Place. My intro ends and Antonio starts at 4:50. We also touch on the following Toronto intersections: King and Spadina (Alexandria’s favourite), Front and Bay (Urban Planning Man’s favourite) and Bloor and Bedford (Antonio’s favourite).

WE HAVE TO TALK. (Also, how many times can I say "King and Spadina"?) I finally caved and joined a dating app and I met an urban planner there. Remember when I said I would never date an urban planner? Oh well, moving on. Anyways, I mentioned that my favourite intersection was King and Spadina and well…he had a lot to say. This episode makes no sense and I had too much wine prior to recording. Please enjoy the hot mess that this episode is. I don’t think I substantiated my points well but I am open to opinions.

Some of the places that you need to visit are: Maryland Art PlaceCurrent SpaceWC HarlanMinistry of Brewing Also, I meant gorgeous Brownstone buildings. I can’t believe I forgot the name!
