All the Feelings • The Senses

Pete and Tommy are dancing with the green-eyed monster as they take a walk down memory lane with their experiences with Jealousy.

Hey... Jealousy? What’s the deal? 

Why all the harsh feelings? What’s the skinny on you making us feel so gross and paranoid? Well, turns out there’s a new “gate” on the horizon and jealousy’s evolutionary history has a report. Meanwhile, we’re finally solving the mystery of the difference between jealousy and envy (maybe), and we have a report from our African field office with an extraordinary act of jealousy-busting empathy.

What is All the Feelings • The Senses?

You've had your senses your whole life. Nobody gave you the manual.

This season, Pete Wright and Tommy Metz III take them one at a time: twelve episodes, twelve senses. First come the five you learned in kindergarten. Then come the five nobody bothered to mention: knowing where your own elbow is with your eyes closed, staying upright, the thermostat war, pain, and the quiet internal voice announcing that you should probably find a bathroom soon. After that comes an episode on the senses scientists are still arguing about, and then a finale on the sense of humor. Humor isn't technically a sense, but it's how we get through the other eleven.

Along the way: the fabric you can't stand against your skin, the voice you hate hearing on recordings (your own), the smell that drops you straight back into your grandmother's kitchen, and so much more.

Same show, same two able and bewildered adults. We used to be called What's That Smell?, so in hindsight we've been a senses show all along.
