Episode 500 - And Now We Drink Episode 463: With Myra Moans pt 2

Matt Slayer welcomes performer, podcast host, and certified chaos catalyst Myra Moans for a day-drinking episode that starts with Hennessy, key lime pie, and scheduling mishaps—and somehow spirals into hit-and-runs, Roth IRAs, blind superheroes, caffeine withdrawals, and the ethics of celebratory hookups. Myra opens up about life in Los Angeles, her beloved beat-up car Donna, the realities of street parking, and why she’d rather fix her ride than flex with a luxury car. She and Matt trade stories about money, industry stereotypes, financial literacy, and the strange pride of making practical choices in an impractical business. The conversation gets more personal as Myra talks about cutting out caffeine after a scary on-set health episode, learning to protect her sleep and energy, and navigating burnout after a huge award-nominated year. She explains why her podcast Poddy Break has been on pause, what made it meaningful, and why fans may still have hope for its return. From there, the two dig into creativity, career longevity, AVN memories, award season pressure, SW authenticity, relationship mistakes, cheating, incompatibility, and what it means to grow up after messy young love. Myra also shares the story of meeting her partner  while Matt does his best to peer-pressure her back into podcasting. It’s funny, unfiltered, oddly thoughtful, and fully on-brand: a boozy conversation about ambition, burnout, bodies, boundaries, and finding your way through the beautiful disaster of adulthood.
