In this episode, Josh and Steph dive into the generational gap between an Elder Gay Millennial and a cusp Gen Z — and somehow end up covering AI, the environment, loneliness, fear, and one very unhinged attempt to ask a guy out via AI-generated Hallmark Christmas movie.

Along the way: a prostate update nobody asked for, and a genuinely moving conversation about feeling stuck, chasing purpose, and why educated people need to speak up right now. It's hot mess meets healing, as promised. If you're disgusting too, you're in the right place.

Topics include: AI and the environment, Sora, ChatGPT, generational slang, loneliness and connection, career fear, going back to school, and one freeze-dried apricot prostate.

We say fuck a lot.

In this unfiltered and hilarious episode of Unhinged Unicorns, Josh and Steph dive deep into the question: “Am I gay?”, but not in the way you might expect.

What starts as a chaotic conversation about celebrity crushes and the steamy series Heated Rivalry quickly turns into a real, raw discussion about sexuality, attraction, and the confusion that comes with it. Steph opens up about feeling attracted to men in fantasy (hello, unattainable celebrities 👀) while also embracing her attraction to women.

Along the way, the duo explores:

• The difference between fantasy vs. real-life attraction
• Navigating sexual identity and labels
• The emotional aftermath of a toxic relationship
• Communication struggles in friendships and dating
• And, of course, plenty of unhinged humor

Expect chaos, vulnerability, and brutally honest takes on love, identity, and everything in between.

After nearly a year away, Josh and Steph return with their most raw, emotional episode yet. Both members of the unofficial “Dead Dads Club,” they share their very different but deeply connected journeys of losing their fathers — men who were loving, flawed, traumatizing, supportive, and complicated all at once.

Josh recounts the final phone call with his father, the redemption arc of his last year, and the bittersweet gift of closure. Steph opens up about the painful patterns with her own dad, the lingering grief for the father she wished she had, and how therapy reframed everything.

Despite the heavy themes, the episode remains unapologetically Unhinged Unicorns — full of dark humor, emotional support penises, and the kind of laughter that only comes from two best friends who refuse to process trauma quietly.

If you’ve ever struggled with parental relationships, grief, guilt, healing, or breaking generational cycles… this episode will meet you where you are.
