    On the last episode of the season, we are taking a moment to look back on this season through the lens of a camera.

Becca Joy and Noah fondly remember moments that they have captured with a camera, and then we explore a gas station museum through photographs.

    Being bored is one of the most universally hated feelings. But the actual idea of boredom is really... strange.

After much laughter, some hot takes on life, and an over-worked metaphor, we ended up in a place we didn't quite expect... For more clueless content, follow us on instagram @clueless_content.
