What starts as a simple year-in-review quickly turns into one of those Peeling Potatoes episodes — the kind you didn’t know you needed until you’re already laughing, nodding, and feeling oddly seen.
In Episode 29, The Mayor (somewhere cold and existential) and Fruitloop (sun-drenched in South Africa) peel back 2025 layer by layer — from mismatched time zones and weather envy to the single LinkedIn message that, according to the Mayor, “changed my life.” Dramatic? Absolutely. Untrue? Not even a little.
This episode dives into:
- The unlikely partnership that grew from a throwaway potato comment into Brida — a community built on humanity, joy, and the quiet magic hidden in ordinary days
- Family milestones, including kids starting school and a soul-resetting trip to Kruger National Park
- Cultural quirks, stocking fillers, personas, and why identity can be both playful and powerful
- The birth of The Pineapple journal, creative rituals, and what happens when you stop building for people and start building with them
And yes — somewhere in the middle of all this reflection, philosophy, and laughter…
👉 The Mayor attempts a strip tease.
Why? Contextually unnecessary. Spiritually inevitable. You’ll have to watch.
This is not a highlight reel.
It’s a conversation about growth, friendship, creative risk, and why the smallest moments often carry the most meaning.
🎧 Listen now if you want to feel like you’re part of the room.
🍍 Stay if you’re curious about what happens when people choose joy on purpose.
🔥 Don’t miss it — because this episode is exactly the kind people reference later and say, “You had to be there.”
