Welcome back to the unapologetic soapbox of Mookie Spitz—your briny, tart, sharp-edged cornichon. A friend just described him that way, not as an insult but as the truest shorthand for who he is: biting, bracing, sometimes overwhelming, but impossible to forget and indispensable in the right mix. This podcast leans into that truth, exploring what it means to embrace the parts of yourself that sting, instead of filing them down for mass approval.
Mookie unpacks the paradox of personality—how the very qualities that make us “too much” are the same ones that make us unique and memorable. He confesses to sometimes steamrolling and delivering opinions like a briny jolt—but he refuses to apologize for it. Because the deeper point is clear: being yourself in a world that rewards conformity, blandness, and algorithm-friendly personas may cost you reach, followers, and even friends, but it can also buy you something rarer—authenticity, persistence, and joy.
With humor, philosophy, and raw honesty, Mookie weaves together:
The podcast is brash, briny, sometimes too much—but it’s also sincere, self-aware, and unmistakably genuine, like the host. Here you'll find something for anyone who’s been told to tone it down and decided instead to turn it up.
