The Death of FOMO: Embracing JOMO, Bedtime Curfews & Surviving Internet Warriors

What is up, y’all! Welcome back to another soulful, unfiltered Damn We Grown Wednesday with your favorites, Mike and Tiff. Look, we gotta be honest—the older you get, the more adulting starts hitting different. Remember when getting ready for a night out didn't even start until 10:30 PM? Yeah… that season has officially left the building. In this episode, we’re breaking down the shift from FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) to full-blown JOMO (the Joy of Missing Out). Tiff explains the pure spiritual bliss of knocking out in your clothes while everyone else is at the movies, and Mike reflects on why anything happening past 9:00 PM feels like an extreme sport. Before we dive deep into the glory of early bedtimes, we keep it 100 on everything that went down this week: Tiff’s mountain hike with Inland Empire’s Melanin on the Trail—and why 45 minutes under the beating sun will make you turn right back around. Mike’s hunt for bargains at the Amazon bin store (and whether a $9 dashcam can actually capture crazy drivers). A chaotic birthday dinner at Japanese BBQ where eight grown folks had to fight over four slivers of wagyu on a strict 90-minute timer. Our candid take on the internet backlash surrounding Keith Lee’s viral highway scare, the messiness of social media keyboard warriors, and why we always choose to give God the glory and protect our peace. Finally, we send love and honor to Tiff’s dad on his heavenly birthday. Grab your tea, slip into your cozy clothes, and laugh with us—because damn, we grown!
