About this episode

The episode features a playful discussion on shenanigans and humor in everyday life.

Hello, Insolent Musical Peasants, Backdoor Broncos, and Stagedoor Sallies! We've got a Friday bonus for you today in the form of a feed drop: it's an episode of Weirdly Helpful with Zak Rosen! This episode is a playful listener-led celebration of “shenanigans” with Rebecca Garza-Bortman, who helps define the term as chaos consumed with humor. Through family rituals, parenting moments, and everyday absurdity, the episode shows how playfulness can turn stress into connection. Zak and Rebecca discuss Rebecca's own shenanigan style, how she uses humor in family and professional life, and how listeners’ calls reveal small rituals that make ordinary moments more fun.
