    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    The girls are back together, and PAFO immediately goes off the rails. Chris, Zoë and KG get into Bonnie Blue’s alleged million-dollar baby name, looksmaxxing, a mysterious dead rabbit, shower etiquette and why Americans apparently have strong opinions about how the rest of the world wipes its ass. KG admits to pissing in the shower, Zoë questions whether a button is actually a button if you’re only tapping it, Chris explains his history with gambling, and somehow a conversation about breaking bo

    Doug Vaughn spent 30+ years on television in St. Louis. Apparently that still wasn’t enough punishment, because now he’s doing PAFO.

He talks about covering some of the biggest moments in St. Louis sports history, including the Ra

Clayton opens up about spending most of his life struggling with anxiety and a lack of confidence despite presenting himself to the world as the exact opposite. He talks about becoming semi-agoraphobi

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Chris, Zoë and KG are back for an episode that goes in about as many directions as humanly possible. What starts with Bridgerton, PAFO’s questionable audio equipment and KG’s miserable trip to Columbia eventually turns into a thoughtful debate over booty shorts, body image, double standards, purity culture and why Americans are so quick to connect nudity with sex. Zoë makes the case for wearing what makes you comfortable, KG tries to figure out where his newly discovered old-man instincts came f

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Chris, Zoë and KG are back for another episode of PAFO despite the fact that no one seems to know what a PAFO is. KG has a new gym crush, which naturally leads to Zoë offering to help orchestrate an elaborate plan to make a move. He also reveals some unexpected personal growth after turning down another “business transaction.” From there, KG recounts his investigative mission to a UPS Store to determine whether Iggy was telling the truth about his new friends Pruul and B complete with a fake pas
