In this hilarious and unfiltered episode, Jay Solo and Key tackle the calling in sick phenomenon — from legit flu days to much-needed mental health breaks — and everything in between.

Inspired by the AI-generated banger "Calling In Sick" by Quarter Brown and A Dollar Thrills (shoutout to Almost Vinyl), the duo dives headfirst into:

🧠 The Guilt Trip: Why does calling off feel like announcing the apocalypse to your boss?

🛑 Dehumanization at Work: When did basic respect take a back seat — and what’s it doing to your mental health?

🎭 The Sick Games: Jay and Key spill their most legendary excuses and the art of dodging manipulative managers.

💼 Toxic Workplace Culture: Why is rest treated like weakness? And are companies really understaffing on purpose?

📝 Doctor’s Notes, Rewritten: If you could write your own, what would yours say? (Spoiler: there's a lot of anatomy involved.)

This episode is packed with laughs, real talk, and a bold message: it’s okay to call in sick. Your health — mental and physical — matters.
