Just Pessimism
“Welcome to Just Pessimism — the podcast where we don’t sugarcoat life’s disasters, we roast them. If you like your humor dry, your optimism dead, and your sarcasm fully caffeinated, you’re in the right place. Each episode, we dive headfirst into the beautiful mess of existence, serving up dark laughs, brutal honesty, and just enough irony to keep the existential crisis at bay. It’s therapy, but cheaper — and a lot more fun.”
