Why is Walter Knope’s life falling apart at the start of Act 1?
I'm Emily Oster, I'm an economist and data expert. And
I'm Perry Wilson, I'm a medical doctor.
And this is our new podcast, Wellness Actually.
You're getting a staggering amount of health and wellness information, and some of it is awesome.
And some of it is, well, actually, bullsh. Fortunately, we're both people who know how to read studies and can tell you what's worth trying out and what you can safely ignore.

Вен демократ за мessing, а сеє. Вен републики, а сеє. I'm Essie Cup, a journalist and political commentator. And on my podcast, Off the Cup, I help you make sense of the often nonsensical news. I do this on cable news too, but on my podcast, I can really let loose and be my honest, unfiltered self. I just want to talk about something that happened this week because it's so bonkers, so stupid. Such Incredibly bad politics. We we just we have to talk about it. Come for the hot takes, stay for the sanity. Listen to Off the Cup on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Maria Garcia. You may remember me from my podcast Anything for Selena or My Devil. I love pop culture. I think about stuff like: what did Mariah Carey and Louise Miguel's relationship mean? Why was the world so unfair to our girl Brittany Spears? And why do some women yearn for Shakira's black hair to make a comeback? I'm always trying to find the meaning behind pop culture and beyond. And now I'm back to unpack more divas, more drama, more stories from the present and the past that I'm mooy excited to tell you about. We're gonna have fun, we're gonna keep it cute, and we're gonna figure out what it all means. Listen to Muy Excited with Maria Garcia as part of the My Cultura Podcast Network available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.
New school year, same beautiful mess. Good mom's bad choices is back to talk back to school realness. The guilt, the giggles, and the choices no other show is brave enough to admit. Mom Life is calling and I have my last motherfucking volleyball tournament of Iris Club Team Volleyball and I cannot wait for it to be over because I don't like participating and having to drive far distances. Shout out to the moms and my mom. Who made it happen? Listen to Good Mom's Bad Choices from the Black Effect Podcast Network, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Alright, so on the count of three, we're gonna do Table Read Suburbanite. Ready? One, two, three. Table reads. Table reads suburbani!
That's pretty good. Suburbanite. Written by Nick Bannister. Exterior, Walter's Antiques and Curio Day. A modest old antique store. Signs in the window display, sale, 40% off, everything must go. Interior Walter's Antiques and Curio Day. Walter, forties, wrinkled clothes, tired eyes, three days stubble, stands amidst a sea of junk. Dated furniture, bookcases, cabinets full of cameras, rotary phones, and old radios. Stacks of dusty books, cases of worn vinyl. Racks of old clothes and strangely, an occasional broadsword or two. It's where forgotten things go to die. Walter walks around the shop with a price gun, mindlessly stamps sales stickers on every item in the place. Propped in the corner is a complete suit of armor with an exaggerated cod piece covered in spikes.
Walter swipes a sales sticker right on the table. The bell dings. And the door swings open. A customer enters.
Tie up, walk into Waltz Antiques. If we don't have it, it didn't exist.
The man ignores the cheerful greeting.
Yeah, you got phone charges?
Walter smiles insincerely. Interior Walter's Antique Sancurio Day. At the big old cash register, Walter rings up the man's meager purchase. That'll be $27.50. CRICE for
that? It's an antique. It has history. Oh, is that why it costs so much? That is why it's worth
so much. Fuck, it's junk. Now how do you fight off? Walter forces a resigned smile service workers know well. Sure. Walter takes the man's money and he exits.
