Episodes
Preemptive Imodium
September 04, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 83 MBThis week we recap a journey into the National Forest on a quest for some off-roading, the Appalachian Trail, and a couple nights of camping. Due to some weather on the horizon not all of it went according to plan. Speaking of things on the horizon. Football is on our doorstep, and it has really snuck up on us. Let's hope their plan works and the season lasts longer than a game of lawn darts in a dog park
Cuck A Doodle Do
August 28, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 74.1 MBWe had some big news in our universe this week, but it certainly paled in comparison to the news coming out of Liberty University. We aren't talking about kids going back to class. More like the kid who likes to watch another kid go back to class and take his tests for him while he hides in the bushes and watches. You know, that kind of news.
Shoe Snake Shoe
August 21, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 87.5 MBSome things are best handled from a distance. When dealing with a venomous snake for example the more distance the better. Sending in your answers to your friends to read on the air instead of showing up yourself to deliver them might not be the best course of action. Pirate ships...well I am not sure if these are better from a distance, or if hands on is the way to go.
This $100 Bucket is Only Forty Bucks
August 14, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 84.8 MBThe true cost of an item is determined by how much someone is willing to pay for it; value on the other hand is something else entirely. We try out a new beer opener this week, and while the cost was not too bad, the value appears to be pretty low. Taco Bell's new burrito is a pretty good value, but getting the whole restaurant for pennies on the dollar is a steal...for some at least. And we discover the world's greatest bucket, or the world's most ridiculous purchase. I guess it really come...
Got Karen's Number
August 07, 2020 14:30 - 1 hour - 82.6 MBLife is full of curve balls, and that isn't always a bad thing. Growing an appendage on your arm only to find out that you can't have it placed where it belongs due to Covid, well that sucks. Running into an actual Karen in the park, only to score her number isn't that worst, unless you are the one who got injured. Heading all over town for weeks looking for a specific beer, only to have it show up at your house should be a good thing, but is it? Sometimes it is the little curves that keep...
Now I Have No Dimes
July 31, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 86 MBDon't plant the seeds. Don't plant the seed in a man's head that he should go by the strip club to get some wings. Don't plant the seed shots of Malort will make your party better. Don't plant the seed that America's favorite Tom Hanks can be a citizen of Greece. And please don't plant the seeds that come unannounced in the mail.
The Right Tool For The Job
July 23, 2020 18:00 - 1 hour - 82.5 MBAsk anyone who builds or creates for a living, and they will tell you that having the right tool for the job will yield better results and make your life much easier. Whether you are making a fresh pair of Jorts, or working on a car, this advice will always hold true. We also may have found the right light IPA for the job as well. So get to work.
That's Not How Surnames Work
July 16, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 78.7 MBThis was a week of many battles, but no wars were won. The great Self Checkout Skirmish, The Washington Trademark Struggle, The Pull a Phone Conflict, The Dot Etiquette Dogfight, and of course the Warrior Nun Encounter. All had their winners and losers, but the sum of their parts made for a funny episode.
Hold On, That Stuff Expires
July 09, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 78.9 MBSummer is officially here, and as if 2020 can't get any worse the word on the street is jorts are the next new hot fashion trend. Time has a way of bringing fashions back, and it turns out equally as good at removing the potency of sunscreen. These together could make for a dangerous combination, almost as bad as Shia Labeouf signing on to be in the John Wayne Bobbitt movie.
Smells Like Bazooka Gum
July 01, 2020 02:00 - 1 hour - 80.1 MBFor the second week in a row we are feeling the vibe coming out of Cornwall, UK. We learn some valuable lessons about what to do and what not to do when looking to refinance a mortgage, and we get a taste of our own medicine during a virtual beer tasting. Happy Fourth of July
Reasoning with Your Dog
June 26, 2020 14:30 - 1 hour - 70.9 MBWe have found a new use for hand sanitizer that may very well be more important than its original intended use. This all depends on your situation, but life saving none the less. We also have found the key to finding off road trails for your 4X4, and by 4X4 we are not talking about your hot pink on pink lifted golf cart with leopard seats. Totally unrelated, let us know if you need a hot pink on pink lifted golf cart with leopard seats.
Hike Your Own Hike
June 18, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 86.7 MBThis week we take a deeper dive into what it is really like to hike the Appalachian Trail. We are joined by our resident CHO Josh Williams as he calls in from Italy between adventures. Enjoy the journey.
Granola Bread Houses
June 11, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 76.4 MBWe are channeling our inner hippies and into the wild we go. A trip down the Appalachian Trail sounds better than ever this week now that you can get paid and drink beer during the journey. Another journey a decade in the making has finally been rewarded, and rewarded handsomely with buried treasure. We also have updates on a bird situation that is progressively getting more dire, but it would have been worse back in the nest.
Post Power Hour
June 05, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 72.4 MBAll good things must come to an end, and this week's episode was recorded in the wake of the power hour. Good things ending gives us a little hope that these bad things must too come to an end. They have to right? Lord knows we haven't been dancing in the unending joy of 2020, but I will be damned if we don't find a way to rise up out of this miserable start to make this seemingly unrelenting wave of bad finally end. How else can we start the next round of good. The kind of good that is so ...
Person to Person Power Hour
May 29, 2020 16:49 - 1 hour - 65.1 MBIt is an old fashioned toe to toe throw-down. Two men enter, and only one man leaves, well that is a bit of an exaggeration, but a good ol' power hour did go down. Terence from Penny Lane Pub was able to knock some of the rust off by pouring 120 mini-beers for our challengers. Apparently there are some side effects associated with a power hour, but we had a buttoned up scoring system to keep things on track. Cheers.
I Have Oil On My Hands
May 21, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 93.7 MBWe have a lot of shocked faces in the crowd this week. That may have to do with the fact that in order to make places look full some people are filling the socially distant space with mannequins, or some real looking open mouthed dolls. Some bars are trying distance enforcing tube tables that certainly left us scratching our heads. We also saw some eye opening numbers from the local ABC stores, as well as some local restaurants, but neither may actually be what they appear.
What is that Tron Movie Called?
May 14, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 82.5 MBEverything seems to take on a little more significance right now than it normally would. One of us quickly learned this when he landed an ill timed handshake out of habit. UFC capitalized on this by being the only live sporting event on, and knocking it out of the park. Even a fleeting eye smile from behind a mask can make your day. ButterFace's rejoice!
Nugget Power Hour
May 07, 2020 16:00 - 2 hours - 104 MBThe ramifications of running off at the mouth have come home to roost. Between gallons of anti foaming agents and dipping sauce we embark on a power hour that two of us will hopefully soon forget but PETA will remember for years. That is assuming they have the time to tune in because I am sure they are busy saving the second most hated thing in the US right now, the Murder Hornet. And speaking of Hornets we talk about their owner, Michael Jordan, who we can certainly eat 5 more nuggets tha...
Hazardous Dooties
May 01, 2020 16:06 - 1 hour - 89 MBSometimes a conversation takes an unexpected turn, and then you end up somewhere you never anticipated. That happened to us while talking about Skweezy Jibbs and his underwear mask and fast food hacks. Now we have an announcement we never meant to make. No this isn't the exciting drone announcement one of us has been waiting on. The timing of this idea with a food shortage on the horizon makes it all the more surreal.
Popping Rounds
April 23, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 96.4 MBSports are back! Well if you consider games of Horse, and basketball from the late 90's sports, then you are damn right, sports are back. We have had to take to target shooting to fill our need to compete, and one of us is literally not even on the board. As if things weren't bad enough Nikki Dee Ray is moving away during our time of crisis. At least we are staying put, and putting out new content...
Serious Lizards
April 16, 2020 15:00 - 2 hours - 114 MBThis week we are joined by our friend Sean from Nectar Sunglasses, and if the world weren't crazy enough right now they are adding to the chaos by changing their logo. Speaking of changes one of the guys is about to be changing his passwords because he has been "seen". At least we haven't been reduced to drinking wine coolers, so we have that going for us which is nice.
Corona Haircuts
April 09, 2020 15:30 - 1 hour - 96.4 MBWell the world is still spiraling, and all of us are figuring out the new normal. This takes on a lot of different meanings this week. Some of us are investing in new hot-tubs to make the days less mundane, while others of us are leaning into more computer equipment to bring a sense of normalcy into the room. Other more creepy people are trolling Craigslist looking for dates, which doesn't just fly in the face of social distancing, but general decency as well. At least all of our haircuts l...
A Tale of Two Kings
April 02, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 94.1 MBWell we have all been ordered to stay at home, and the end date given to VA is a bit further out than expected. The question about the true cost, both good and bad, is still TBD. Had we known we were going to be home this long we probably wouldn't have burned through Tiger King so damn fast. In fact we may have planned to lock down more like the actual Thai King.
Take Two
March 27, 2020 14:30 - 1 hour - 57.8 MBAs the real world continues to spiral we are leaning into the virtual world to maintain contact, and this makes us all increasingly reliant on the internet. Not a great time for internet issues to strike, but that is exactly what happened. Fortunately we did a second take.
Boo Boo Corona
March 19, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 96.8 MBIt has been a while since we have recorded a fresh episode, and while it was only a couple of weeks ago it feels like a lifetime. We have a recap of a surreal Disney trip, and watch as the rest of the world spirals into the unknown. In fact we are all dealing with far too much unknown right now, and that can and will weigh heavy on your mind. Keep your head up people and enjoy the show. Cheers, and be well.
The Seltzer Challenge
March 12, 2020 15:00 - 1 hour - 91.5 MBYou asked for it, and we delivered. The Seltzer Challenge is here! We have the grizzled veterans, and we welcome the new kids on the block for an old fashioned blind taste test. We have tallied the carbs, and the results are in. Cheers!
I Can Set My Watch To It
March 06, 2020 15:01 - 1 hour - 65.4 MBTroy's rants have paid off, and the reviews are in. The good news is they are all five stars, the bad is that these are the people that are supposed to like us. We finally get a review on a long awaited Weber grill and it is not what we had hoped for, but it is still made in Illinois which is cool.
Poop Shoes and Face Tats
February 27, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 79.6 MBWe finally got a chance to try the new PBR Coffee, and it was such an easy choice we didn't even run it through the DELI gauntlet. We ended up having to get a back-up DELI, you know like when you bring that back up pair of shoes to the office so you can hide your shame while in the stall. Seriously, this is now a thing, just like KFC Crocs. What a time to be alive.
Lumineers of Darkness
February 20, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 69 MBJust because something sounds lighthearted doesn't mean there isn't some darkness hiding behind the sound. This week we are reminded of this as we watch a group of people try and rewrite the narrative around their story, and it sounded pretty good while they did it.
Strawberry Suck
February 13, 2020 16:30 - 1 hour - 77.6 MBI never know where outrage is going to come from. When I think I see it coming, it doesn't rear its head, and when I don't see it coming it makes its presence known. At least we all shared in our unified outrage that many a sad strawberry should have been left in the field they were found in.
From Ruth's Chris to Repo
February 06, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 95.1 MBThis week we hit some big SuperBowl bets, but we were also reminded that money can flow the other way just as fast. One of the fastest ways to keep money flowing in the wrong direction is to buy a boat...mmmm boat. If your money could follow a GPS you could always point it North, but blindly following your GPS can cause some serious issues as well. Enjoy the ride.
Peaky Doppelganger
January 30, 2020 20:40 - 1 hour - 82.3 MBBad intel was all around us this week, but unfortunately some of it was correct. It all started with a ticker on ESPN we hoped wasn't true, but turned out to be correct. Then one of us committed to a "cool" hat, and another jumped on the chance to get a nice jacket, both ended in mockery. We found out Blueballs may be a flat out lie, but one out of four of us is still holding on to the belief. We even awarded a DELI, and after the show the other flavors made us reconsider if really only half...
Watch That Last Step
January 23, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 88.5 MBThis was a big week of announcements in Richmond. We are going to be getting two major developments. One that will bring families together, and another that could tear them apart. To celebrate we mix some espressos and booze, and it does a pretty good job of lifting the fog from the night before.
The Consumer and Diego
January 16, 2020 17:30 - 1 hour - 84.2 MBStaying young is an impossible task, but we all give it our best shot. Supplements provide some hope, and you can always try and cover up your obvious signs of aging. Sometimes you can find your inner child by just hanging with your friends and competing in whatever challenge comes your way. Others stay young by making 1,000's of babies, and along the way saving their species.
I've Got Your Toe
January 09, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 86.3 MBYou should always know who is in your house, but sometimes people just show up. When they do it is their intentions that determine if this is a going to be a good experience or not. The good news is that most people are inherently good; the bad news is that some people think bad things are good.
Tight Pants and Brunellos
January 02, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 87.8 MBWelcome to 2020! We took some time to reminisce on the season gone by, and then shifted our attention to how other's New Year's Resolutions could help make our lives easier in this new decade. If the wine we have seen popped this week is an indication of the year ahead it is going to be an expensive one. At least we have our Costco game on lock so we are finding savings somewhere.
Holiday Drink Challenge 4
December 27, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 93.4 MBAnother year is coming to an end, as has another Holiday Drink Challenge, but this time we added a twist. It seems the drinks this year had a whole lot more in them than just a twist though. Cheers to another great year!
Trans Siberian Nutcracker
December 19, 2019 16:00 - 1 hour - 81 MBIt is that time of year again; the holidays are upon us. So grab your Axe body spray, get on the bus, and head to the ballet you classy S.O.B. The SoCo shots and Popeyes chicken sandwiches will be waiting for you when you get back home. Tis the season.
Viscosity Matters
December 12, 2019 16:00 - 1 hour - 101 MBWe have made it through November, and are finally clean shaven. As a parting gift to our mustaches we threw a free party with a Grateful Dead cover band for a bunch of hippies, drank twice as many DELI's as normal, paid the water bill multiple times, found a way to combine Baby Yoda and White Claw, and put some ice cream on whatever we want. That's how it's done.
Kindred Stache
December 05, 2019 16:00 - 2 hours - 105 MBThis week we visit the Kindred Spirit Brewery while they are descended upon by 50 mustaches. It was a win win all around, but mostly for us because we were able to taste three different delicious beers. Cheers my friends
Ginger VS Ninja
November 28, 2019 16:00 - 1 hour - 85.4 MBIn the beginning there was nothing, and then the first mustache was created. This week we are joined by the first mustache that grew for only one month, and did it in the face of those who wore one year round. While they look similar they are fairly different. Much like the Gingerbread Stout VS NinjaBread Man. To the sick mans pallet they seem the same, but to the outside world there are obvious differences.
Tinder Tots Bundles
November 22, 2019 15:30 - 1 hour - 82.1 MBIf you are trying to good do the ends justify the means? This week we have to believe the answer is yes, and we have found a new way to leverage our mustache powers in the name of the greater good. Burger King tried to do what they thought was right, but they should have known they would be condemned for such things. The obvious move was to bundle what people want with a little less of what they don't, then it seems like a win. We get it.
Do you Smell Chocolate?
November 15, 2019 20:20 - 1 hour - 88.8 MBThis week we discuss some of our Super Powers. All of us are flexing our super ability to grow mustaches for good, but there are other powers that are less know. One of us can produce food direct from his nose, while another can only smell things if it is in the proper glass. Another of us can summon the feds with a simple act of marketing. Apparently we also have the ability to take down politicians without any effort all. Just because we don't wear capes doesn't mean we don't have powers...
Gravy and Malort
November 08, 2019 03:29 - 1 hour - 90 MBOften times you hear a story that sounds just like another experience you have had, but with subtle differences. Like the guy with a trunk full of Krispy Kreme's. One guy makes money and the other loses money, but both cars reek of doughnuts. A couple guys take shots of Malort, but one ends up with a belly full of gravy, and the other experiences the horror that is Canadian anger. Lives are full of these parallel story lines, but from the other side they can seem very different. Kind of ...
The Memphis Hair Incident
November 01, 2019 14:55 - 1 hour - 101 MBWe are on the precipice of growing season, and for many of us this means we are about to settle into our more charitable alter ego, for the rest of you it means we are hoping you find your charitable side. We are not there yet though so shaving is still on the agenda, and some of us shaved more then we meant to. Speaking of more then we meant to; is it too early to start holiday binge eating? Asking for a friend, and I know he is a friend because I can't stop making fun of him. That is wha...
Grower Not Show-er
October 24, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 77.5 MBThis week has seen a lot of L's, yet we are coming out the other side feeling fairly good about it. Sure we were given a gift that was promptly pissed on before it was ever worn. One of us was contacted by an L, and thought it was a stroke of luck, only to find the wrong L signaled bad luck. We even heard of a man who died and left his final words for all to hear, and they were not what was expected. Sure we could be upset by all of the L's, but we are Growers, and Growers know the value...
Late Show New Pup
October 18, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 80.7 MBDo you ever have one of those days that you don't want to end? This week that exact scenario made for an unexpected show. With the snap of the fingers the power was back on, and we were recording. Troy was fired up, and we are not sure if it was the new pup or the DUI's on scooters but but he turned it up to 11. Grab that Emergency Beer and enjoy the show.
The Tamer with Taylor
October 11, 2019 15:14 - 1 hour - 97.7 MBThis week we are joined by a special guest Taylor Carson. We revisit his past, hear about the present, and place bets on the future. There is a DELI, but with a twist this week as we take the road less traveled. Special thanks to Taylor for joining us beyond just the typical intro.
Big Montana Redemption
October 03, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 67 MBThis week we record from a golf trip to Myrtle Beach, and we are joined by a few new characters. If you count yourself among those who think Shawshank Redemption is one of the greatest movies of all time then we have an eye opening one minute review for you. We also settle the old Montana debate between Great Falls and Missoula. Actually truth be told I don't think it has been debated outside of our conversation, and we certainly don't solve the issue.
Delilah's Kids
September 26, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 63 MBLove is in the air, and who better to usher it in than the queen of love songs and dedications herself, well maybe not her but at least her child. An over the top wedding reminds us that even when surrounded by love if you say the wrong thing you will be the butt of jokes. Nothing a few breakfast shots can't fix though.
