    In today’s episode, we get you up to speed with current events from all across the world, but we do it on our terms.

    That’s right, you’re going to hear the news we want you to hear and NONE of it will be about politics. Keep scrolling along with all the other doomsayers for that mess.

    Instead, we’re going to focus on everyday ordinary people just like us. From questionable kayaking trips with giant fu€

  • Fly me to the Moon...Towers
    Nov 9 2024

    In today’s episode, we’ve teamed up with Scooby and Shaggy as we saddle up in the Mystery Mobile - complete with a flux capacitor - and head to the heart of Austin, TX, circa 1885. We’re on the hunt for the world’s very first serial killer - The Servant Girl Annihilator.

    It appears that the city’s residents of the time got this guy confused with Santa Claus, though… instead of leaving out cookies and milk, they opted for the family axe and a sandbag or two. Seems like door locks weren’t all the rage back then either.

    If you’ve ever wondered what all of those seemingly odd towers around Central Austin were for, tune in and get your history on!

    Let’s go, our fellow freaks!

  • Texas Haunts- Our Halloween Episode!
    Oct 27 2024

    In today’s episode, we’re not dicking around. We cut right to the chase as we embark on a (literally) sobering tour of Texas’ spookiest spots on the map - and Brad isn’t having it. Not only is he shaking with fright in the corner, he’s butchering the sh*t out of the stories. He can write, folks, but he needs a crash course in 3rd grade level reading.

    Jessica is in her element, though, and decides it would be fun to sick one of her creepy haunted dolls on Brad. We’re pretty sure he cried in the car on the way home.

    So whether you’re into spooky season or not, you don’t wanna miss this one. Let’s go!!

  • Frozen in Fright
    Oct 19 2024

    In today’s episode, we remind everyone that we suck and deserve to be punished (yes, please). Why didn’t anybody tell us we sounded like sh*t?! Well, you can’t say it now because we finally figured it out and we. sound. like. ANGELS!!

    We decided to celebrate our newfound clarity with a kickoff to spooky season! We talk all things haunted and horrific, and Brad pees himself a little bit. He’s not a fan of horror. Oh, and Jess is indeed scared… she just can’t show it as her face is frozen. She just won this year’s Botox Challenge and she’s smiling ear to ear, you just can’t see it.

    When we do things, we do them BIG, people! So let’s get this party started!!

  • Are you ready for some Ffff…fact checking?
    Sep 24 2024

    In today’s episode, we are distracted by shiny objects. In this case, those shiny objects are the numerous Lombardi Trophies won by The KANSAS CITY MF’n CHEIFS!

    That’s right, it’s football funday Sunday so we ditch this party a bit early to scream at the TV for a few hours, but not before we do a bit of fact checking on our own bullsh*t. Turns out, we’re both full of it.

    Oh, and apparently, Jess is hilarious in this episode (she forced me to type that).

    Get in, shut up, and hold on. Let’s go, party people!

  • Shenanigan Stampede
    Sep 14 2024

    In today’s episode, you can run but you can’t hide from the nonsense that falls out of our mouths. That’s right, no shelter can withstand F9 sh*tstorm that is coming straight at you and, spoiler alert, you’re all unpaid extras in next summer’s academy award winning blockbuster.

    We might start soft, but we come correct soon after as we whisk you away to a magical place called - South Dakota, the home where the buffaloes (and Ruffaloes) roam.

    It’s go time, party people, so saddle up and make sure you sign the waiver!

  • Gone too soon- A tribute to Jessica Merris Lance
    Aug 27 2024

    In today’s episode, our hearts are heavy and we’re still in shock as we tell the story of our dear friend, Jessica Merris Lance, who left us way too soon. Through her unforgettable laugh and her selfless heart, the world became a better place. As we navigate this new world without her in it, we will make damn sure that her name lives on forever. So please tune in and help us enshrine her memory into the halls of infamy.

    We’ll get back to our regularly scheduled shenanigans soon enough, but this one’s for you, Merris.

  • Is this going somewhere?
    Aug 21 2024

    In today’s episode, we chase laser pointers and stare at shiny objects. If ADHD ever decides to identify as a podcast episode, we’re certain this will be the one. From Olympic meat gazing to the buffalo’s involvement in climate change, we can’t stay on topic to save our lives. We eventually get to the subject matter, and then back off, and then on again, until Doug eventually drops the biggest bomb of them all… twice. You’ll have to tune it to solve that mystery.

    Buckle up, people, we get weird in this one. LET’S GO!
