A DRUG TO CURE YOUR BROKEN HEART. I DON'T GET IT with Brian D. Earp
But what if there was an anti-love drug? A pill you can pop whenever your heart of glass breaks? Some medicine to wash away the remnants of a lover that left you with a love that you can't leave behind?
This week I'm joined by Brian D. Earp, co-author of LOVE DRUGS: The Chemical Future of Relationships, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, Associate Director of the Yale Hastings Program in Ethics and Health Policy at Yale University to discuss exactly that. Does it exist? Can it exist? How would it work? Would it really work? You know, just some heavy duty, sophisticated questions of a certain calibre of intelligence. Be forewarned.
Look, the point is, he is really smart. And he is here to talk to us about my favourite subject and I think possibly the only thing I ever actually talk about: love.
Ok, let's go mend these broken hearts, shall we?

THE LIFESPAN OF A RELATIONSHIP: FROM BEGINNING TO END. I DON'T GET IT with Yasmeen Rafiq (CHAPTER TWO)
This week, we say goodbye.
Most love stories start and end this way, after all. Our journey through the lifespan of love with Yasmeen Rafiq continues in Chapter Two of "The Entire History of (Me) and You".
Thanks for listening.

THE LIFESPAN OF A RELATIONSHIP: FROM BEGINNING TO END. I DON'T GET IT w/ Yasmeen Rafiq (CHAPTER ONE)
To kick things off: today, we're joined by marriage counselor and all around love and relationship expert, Yasmeen Rafiq, as we take the arduous journey through the lifespan of a relationship.
In Chapter One, we explore the meet cute. What makes us attracted to one person instead of another? What makes someone good enough to hook up with but not to date seriously? What happens when we first fall in love? Is it gradual? Is it instant? Does love at first sight really happen? Is love and marriage really just a matter of timing and convenience or is there really someone out there destined for each and every one of us?
I know we've come and gone a lot lately. Such is what happens both in life and love. Thanks for sticking around.
Now let's go fall in love, shall we?

GROWING UP. I DON'T GET IT with my Grade 8 Teacher, Mr. Martil & Grade 8 Classmate, Jan Michael
This one's for every teacher that shows up, every day. That listens. That cares. That sees the very best in us, long before we ever see it in ourselves. Thank you for being there.

GHOSTED BY MY “EX” WHILE HE EXPLAINS GHOSTING. I REALLY DON'T GET IT with Ryan Ghosting aka "Mark"
Here's the Shyamalan truth of it all - since this interview was conducted, "Ryan Ghostfart"/Current Zombie from "The Farting Dead"/"The Last of Farts"/"World War F(art)"/"I Fart Legend" and so on, once again, vanished into that good and cowardly night like the fart in the wind that he so truly is, therefore, it is unfinished. Fear not! Unreliable, inconsistent and disappointing men are as common as zombies in a zombie apocalypse so we are well prepared to "PIVOT!". Meet Lucinda aka "Binger" (only I call her that and she does not like it at all) and Cheryl aka "Che" (accurately pronounced "Shay", not "Chae", which is how I've been pronouncing her name for the last thirty years). I'm a great friend, I know. They'll be sticking around so you'll see them around the way. For now, let's stick to some good ol' Ghostbustin'!
Warning: episode contains extremely savage "callin it like they see it truths" from our featured guests and the weekly idiocy you now expect from me, the same ol' G. Please listen, like, rate, subscribe, review cause does it matter? Apparently yes, yes it does. And join all your/my current friends, former lovers, future enemies and eventual strangers who you have no recollection of ever knowing who have all congregated on the following platforms: @mariadoesntgetit (Instant Telegrams), @mariadoesntgetit (The Telephone Book of Faces), and of course, @MMdoesntgetit (Elon's Rockin' Robin). Or, if you are so inclined, you may win over my heart by writing me a personal letter and electronically mailing it to burningtrashfire@gmail.com. OR, if you're Romeo and the dice was loaded from the start ready for some woo-ing, make me a Spotify playlist.
Now you have all the secrets to my heart. Enjoy listening to the secrets of my past. It's funny, but then sad.
An old fashioned, classic Manero.
See you next week, friend.

DID YOU HEAR HIS MAMMY DIED? FAMILY, MEMORY, LOSS AND WHATEVER'S LEFT TO BE GAINED. I DON'T GET IT with Séamas O’Reilly
Today, we are joined by the stunningly eloquent and frighteningly quick-witted, Séamas O'Reilly - father/husband/son/brother/journalist/human/interviewee/multi-hyphenate and illustrious author to chat about his memoir, Did Ye Hear Mammy Died?, which chronicles the story of his family - starting with the loss of his mother at age 5 and the almost inexplicable dedication, tenacity and resolve displayed by his father who stepped up to the plate and went on to raise ELEVEN children ON HIS OWN!!! How the fuck did he do this? I do not get it is an understatement.
(Read a book for once in your life! But really, you should read this one. Get it everywhere books are gotten or go to mammybook.com)
For reasons you'll understand later, the O'Reilly 11 are: Sinead, Dara, Shane, Maeve, Orla, Mairead, Dearbhaile, Caoimhe, Séamas, Fionnuala and Conall. Yeah, exactly. Listen to the ep and @ me later.
And now, sit back, relax, or sit up and tighten up (it's your body, do what you want) and let's get into it: forgetting, remembering, love, loss, memories, and family. This one's for you: Daddy and Mammy, Daddy and Mommy and every other Father and Mother out there who try their very best, every single day. Thank you.

IS YOUR PODCAST LAME? AN ODE TO CRINGE with our dear friend, Norm Wilner

Trailer? I DON'T GET IT with Maria Manero
I DON'T GET IT w/ Maria Manero is a forthcoming comedy talk show featuring a host you may know from nowhere because nobody knows her and nobody cares! But it doesn't matter cause we're not here for that. We're here to take the journey with an idiot from burning trashfire to slightly hot garbage as she tries to make sense of the people and the world around her.
Through a series of funny, honest, sincere and hopefully, at times, insightful conversations with experts on widely varying topics - from Exes, Family and Cheating to Growing Up, Farts and many others (yes, don't worry, we will be delving into Butt Stuff you perverts!), Maria, (that's the host, remember? Oh forget it). Look, the point is, she's confused about pretty much everything and the hope is, after getting schooled by experts, she'll be less confused.
As a listener, you'll laugh, you'll cry. Then you'll laugh at yourself for wasting your tears and time on this dumpster fire they dare call a "podcast". But amidst the emotional meltdown you're now having, you might find that you've also learned something, and in doing so, have developed a greater understanding and acceptance of others.
