Episodes
Randy Said I Could
October 04, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 79.7 MBLightning and rain is typically the enemy of good golf, but this week we find out that it really only affects one of us. Rain on a golf course can also lead to longer hours at the clubhouse bar, but not necessarily an all night party, for that you may have to venture out.
We are Getting Softer
September 27, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 77.5 MBFootball season is back and it is getting us hyped up for the wrong reasons. We celebrate a wedding and a couple birthdays, and learn two things: A sack is a sack, and you can't talk at Van Morrison.
Refugee Nectar
September 20, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 84.1 MBThis week Hurricane Florence blew into the Carolina's and with it a steady flow of visitors to the surrounding states. One of these refugees was our friend Sean from Nectar Sunglasses, and he has some big news on the horizon, and we aren't just talking about sunglasses.
Reduce Reuse Recycle
September 13, 2018 21:57 - 1 hour - 83.9 MBMany of us have been in hurricane prep mode this week, and because of this the shelves are pretty bare which is keeping one VP pretty busy. Elon Musk is reeling from his past week and learning that it can be hard to be the cool or funny guy and maintain solid executive status. Here in the Pallet House we fall prey to marketing twice this week as we choke down salty ham and bad beer. Stay safe my friends.
Michael Gwyn Matthews Casino
September 06, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 72.9 MBLoopholes may be controversial, but they do have their place in society. Riverboat casinos have obviously figured out to work these angles. Getting fired from your job could also have a brightside if you work the loophole of recording why you were let go. Even Thanos may have created job openings despite his bad deeds.
RedNeck Riviera
August 30, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 82.2 MBThis week we get a late night show recorded live from Beth Page Camp Resort. We answer the tough questions like, "What is the difference between a gas and electric golf cart?" Yeah, the tough questions.
Dude Where's my Bike
August 23, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 88.7 MBSome weekends don't generate a lot of stories and other weekends generate too many to remember. This week we do our best to remember the stories from one that falls in the latter. That is bound to happen when you visit the un-hidden gem that is Seacrets. Speaking of secrets we have another sighting of our mystery beer benefactor.
That happened twice?
August 16, 2018 17:55 - 1 hour - 89.9 MBThis week we say goodbye to one of our regulars, JJ, and we are so upset we are planning a trip to Ocean City to drown our sorrows. If that isn't what has gotten us down maybe it is the steady stream of Craigslist mishaps. At least we don't have an 8 pound parasite in our belly.
Wipers!
August 09, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 88.5 MBWhen it comes to getting from point A to point B few options illicit as much emotion as the car. Oftentimes they are fun, and other times they are just damn expensive. Sometimes they are built for speed, but all cars crawl in traffic...even opting for the train to avoid the traffic can put you right in the same situation. This week cars are front and center, but that is better than talking about an asteroid strike.
Trolley to Nowhere
August 02, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 84.3 MBAs a rule of thumb you should probably delete your old Twitter account at age 21 and start a new one, but for some reason we keep hearing about idiots being burnt by their old teenage tweets. While we are at it can we move on from using pennies? It seems we are full of good ideas this week, and that goes for the axe throwing too.
P-P-Pouring
July 26, 2018 20:08 - 1 hour - 85.7 MBSometimes you start planning for something so far in advance that no matter what happens you feel like you need to carry out the original plan. This week we fall victim to this, and the consequences are cold and miserable. Sounds like the new Jurassic Park movie may have also run into a similar situation. At least we did find a company that set out to make a Radler, and then when it all went south they stayed the course, and the results were pretty interesting.
Curling and Kittens
July 19, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 102 MBIt is the dead of summer and you know what that means...it is the perfect time to take up curling. It is the only competitive sport dominated by the polite and built on a foundation of beer drinking. The polite use less F bombs, and we work on curbing ours this week. Or maybe it is just the introduction of a new kitten that has softened our tone.
Italy and Disney Recaps W Extra Twitches
July 12, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 98.1 MBThe guys recap the trips to Italy and to Disney. Travel has a way of teaching you a lot of lessons, and these trips were no exception. Let us know if you need a driver while you are listening to the episode and we can hook you up with a guy.
ITPH Best of - WellRed
July 05, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 102 MBHappy Fourth of July! In celebration of Independence Day we take a much needed break for a week, and take a look back at one of our favorite episodes from the past year when we interviewed the crew from the WellRED Comedy tour and podcast. Cheers!
Happy F Day
June 28, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 82.4 MBWe are joined again by our resident Green Beret JR, and we learn of a search for pasta that ends with a picnic basket, and of course the standard blue pasta. We look forward to a trip to the land of pasta, Italy, and we try a DELI that could only make 1 out the 4 of our Uber apps predict that we are drunk.
A Sliver of Light
June 22, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 74.6 MBThis week we are joined by our resident Green Beret and Joe Rogan look a like, and we are quickly reminded about how good we all really have it. We may never look at a sliver of light the same way again. Not to be outdone we also meet a grandmother who tries to show how tough she is by choking out a bobcat…her story may need some additional fact checking though.
Pinups Unknown
June 14, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 94.9 MBThis week will be remembered by many highs and lows. A new champion is crowned, and shortly followed by an attempt at a team record for highest BAC. We also lost a well known chef and world traveler, and look back on the journey. When the dust settled though we may have found the perfect DELI.
Blood Diamonds are Forever
June 07, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 76.9 MBThe region is in whipped into a frenzy as the Caps make their case that they are the best in the NHL. Playoff hockey is as about as intense as it gets, and it can make your stomach turn faster then eating your dip...combine the two and it really causes discomfort. A championship would be priceless, as are some diamonds, but a diamonds true value can't always be defined by the factors on paper. It is the intangibles that make them both difficult to explain to the disinterested.
Irish Apples
May 31, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 77.7 MBFor the second week in a row we are joined by Big Rich from the Booze and Grooves podcast, and WRIR 92.3FM. Father of the Year awards haven't been handed out this year, and a few of us are making our case early. The case for Uber Eats may have just taken a hit though.
Ham Sandwich
May 24, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 68.6 MBAs we head into Memorial Day weekend we are joined by the one and only Big Rich...need we say more. Round second and grab a ham sandwich. Check out Big Rich on the Booze and Grooves podcast on Soundcloud or on his radio show NightTime Maneuvers on WRIR 97.3 on Saturday night between 3-5AM
SweetGums and Wasps
May 17, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 71.8 MBWe all have been in relationships that are probably not in our best interest, but when it is your sports team that is the offending partner you really don't have anybody to blame but yourself. Soon you will be able to place your hard earned money on your teams instead of just your emotions...so you have that going for you.
Put That Phone Away
May 10, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 76.4 MBDistractions are all around us this week in the Pallet House, but like true pros we pressed on. Professionals know not to get distracted when using a power washer or a paint gun, but this week we are reminded that we are not the type of pros that have mastered those tools. As long as the accidents we endure don't require penis transplants we should good though.
There is a Time and a Place
May 03, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 85.9 MBMost people dream of waterfront living, but it is more often than not out of reach. Trailer park life is easily obtainable, but not often something you dream of. If you combine the two though you just may have a happy medium. Kind of like being colorblind with corrective glasses. It may not be perfect, but it is a pretty good substitute. Of course there is no substitute for a Yeti cooler...that dream lives on.
R. Lee Knows ATM Safety Part 2
April 26, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 69.1 MBWe should always be checking our surroundings when using ATM's, and sometimes even after. Some scams are relatively harmless, while a small scam like the value of a hotel in Monopoly can be life threatening. Rumors are a scam all of their own, and we spread one.
R. Lee Summers on Parris Island Pt 1
April 20, 2018 02:30 - 1 hour - 69.4 MBThis week we lost everybody's favorite Drill Sergeant, R.Lee Ermey, and we remember some of the life lessons he taught us. Something tells me he was a Bud man, and two of us reflect on our first week of being one ourselves. The stories get a bit off track, and like eating a two donut burger this episode needed a break...TBC.
American Lager Showdown
April 12, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 97.6 MBA beer drinkers loyalty to their brand is not something you see often change. Truth is many of these loyalties are formed long before the first sip is taken thanks to marketing, or family and social ties. We wanted to put these beer affinities to the test by blind tasting 5 common American Lagers. This sounds easy but when numbers and unsophisticated palettes get involved all bets are off.
JR's Reverse Medusa
April 05, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 78.7 MBThis week a one of a kind gift is received. The question is which gem was the gift deemed one of a kind? Was it the Uber driver's war stories, the giant stye, the rainbow shirt, the joy of no carbs and booze, or the return of The Master's. JR knows the answer.
Handsome QB's and Tooth Faries
March 29, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 75.6 MBThis week we are out of the Pallet House for RVA Brunch Weekend at one of our favorite restaurants and watering hole, Social 52. We discover that there is no such thing as a graceful tooth fairy, well mannered leprechaun, or an ugly quarterback. We did manage to find at least one guy who won't pee in the lazy river though.
San Diego Bonus Week
March 22, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 86.8 MBOur mystery benefactor has struck again, and this time from San Diego bearing twice as many gifts. We learn of another helpful provider who showed up in the form of a dirty Air BnB. We also find a way to combine the two most common lazy mans food items into an overly complicated but delicious union.
Andre and the Drunk Rats
March 15, 2018 14:30 - 1 hour - 92.2 MBRichmond Brunch Weekend is on the horizon so naturally we brought in Sara and Cazey from the As Told Over Brunch blog to get us up to speed on all that is going on. While they were here we took advantage of having them in the room to help us answer if cheap champagne or expensive champagne makes a better mimosa. A couple of us even treated ourselves like lab rats to test the latest in hangover prevention.
Dan Dan is Back Again
March 08, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 70.7 MBA trip to New Orleans has once again brought the story of Dan Dan the Shoeshine Man to the show as yet another friend has fallen prey to his scam. A new Uber scam has come to the forefront, and we learn of another Uber rider who managed to scam himself. Enjoy the episode; I have to run I have a phone call at the bar.
Did They Give it to you in Sanskrit
March 01, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 78.1 MBWhen it comes to drinking most people think that the company you keep and the venue are the most important factors, but the argument can be made that time of day is just as important. Daydrinking with your B Squad can still be the best time ever and sometimes better than night drinking with your first teamers. Not this episode though because we recorded it late at night.
Miata Cuffs
February 22, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 66.4 MBDreams are coming true for Olympic athletes from all over the world, and we also see a dream realized by one of our own. Speaking of dreams come true we hear the story of a man who actually met the greatest baseball player to ever wear a Yankees uniform...you guessed it he met...Mack?
The Answer
February 15, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 83.9 MBThis week we are joined by An Bui from The Answer Brewpub and Mekong restaurant. When you have one of the most sought after beer lists in the country we come to you, and that is exactly what we did. No Zima's were consumed, but An made sure that nobody was lacking for a great beer at anytime during our conversation. Cheers!
Easy Bake Espresso Machine
February 08, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 80.2 MBThe NFL season has come to a close, and it was Vegas that ended up losing money on the big game. Elon Musk on the other hand knew exactly how to line his pockets with fresh cash, and outfit the world with the perfect tool to melt the winter snow. Now if only this bathing suit had pockets for me to put cash in so I could afford all of the things in my Amazon cart.
If They Win, Philly Loses
February 01, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 85.3 MBThe hype for the big game is at a fever pitch, but true to form we are focused on all the wrong aspects of the game. We may have found the perfect beer for your party though. We revisit a competition that has been lopsided for many years now, but we will know soon enough if the tables have turned. On top of that...yet another pillow.
The Bamba Factor
January 25, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 78.4 MBWe have choices when it comes to where we shop for our food. The reasons we choose the stores we do vary almost as much as the stores themselves. What is often overlooked is how the foods in those stores are affecting the world around us and to what degree.
Progressive Liberal Wrestler
January 18, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 69 MBThis week we are joined by The Progressive Liberal Wrestler. If you don't know who he is you will soon enough, because he has the most interesting persona in professional wrestling today. Depending on your political leanings you will either see him as the worst kind of villain or an outspoken hero, and both sides of the fence are showing up to his matches to let him know where they stand. One thing is for sure, the Progressive Liberal Wrestler is coming to a town near you to drop some har...
Ski Lift Tricks
January 11, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 77 MBThis week we get a recap of the Ghetto Ski Trip, and if you stick around until the very end...redemption.
They Upgraded the Whale Torture
January 04, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 71.7 MBThe weather has dipped to all time lows and for many of us this means it is time to plan a trip to the mountains for some boarding and skiing. For others planning a trip to Disney sounds like a much warmer idea. Regardless of where your mind wanders in this cold weather we may have found a coffee that can warm you up. This week we also take a peak beyond the Uber curtain and realize Troy was right all along.
But You Like It
December 28, 2017 15:00 - 1 hour - 98.4 MBAnother year is coming to a close, but just because the celebrations are winding down doesn't mean winter drinks are going anywhere just yet. The gauntlet has been thrown down again and we will see who makes the best winter drinks this time around. If your New Year's Resolution was to drink more calorie laden adult beverages you are in luck. Cheers!
Miata Dreams
December 21, 2017 15:30 - 1 hour - 77.9 MBTis the season for dreaming about the possibilities of the year ahead. Many dream of enduring peace, greater clarity of thought, spending more time with loved ones, or any number of well intentioned desires...others dream of cars. Be careful not to dream your days away though or you may find yourself on the wrong end of a Viking Funeral at a water park.
Stevie Nicks Junk Drawer
December 13, 2017 15:30 - 1 hour - 84.1 MBWinter is here and it came by way of the south, and brought some serious travel issues. At least the Griswolds of the world already had their lights up before the mess came so we can all bask is their glow. Through it all we are reminded that Nashville still has a few musical tricks up its sleeve, and some elves get broken legs.
It's Better to Receive than to Give
December 07, 2017 15:30 - 1 hour - 82 MBAfter a month of giving to others we find ourselves on the receiving end of many a gift. The gifts from unknown sources are a blessing, while the gift from the known giver...not so much. The season of gift giving is upon us so hang your Christmas lights, and let the joy of unlit bulbs wash over you.
