    How To Find Love? Make It A Game Show. | SoberNotSober Ep.33

    This week, Mekaylay flips the script and puts co-host Grant in the hot seat for a special dating game show episode. Grant is 27, a sommelier, newly bald by choice, and — most importantly — very much single. Over the course of an hour, he walks through his ideal first date, what he's looking for in a partner, how he cooks for someone he's trying to impress, and why he needs an emotional connection before anything physical. He's thoughtful, surprisingly self-aware, a little self-deprecating, and genuinely ready to find his person. If you've ever wanted to know what Grant brings to the table — literally and figuratively — this is the episode.

  2. 10-Year-Old Tuscan Beef MRE. 20-Year-Old Zinfandel. We Aged Into Disappointment |SoberNotSober Ep.32

    10-Year-Old Tuscan Beef MRE. 20-Year-Old Zinfandel. We Aged Into Disappointment |SoberNotSober Ep.32

    This week on Sober Not Sober, Grant and Mekaylay tackle two very old things: a 10-year-old Tuscan Beef MRE purchased from the USS Iowa gift shop nearly a decade ago, and a 20-year-old bottle of Cucamonga Valley Zinfandel from Temecula. Spoiler: the cracker tasted like gym socks, the coffee was basically hot water, and the wine was corked. A sommelier and a recovering alcoholic suffering through expired military rations is exactly the content you didn't know you needed. Also on this episode: 🪖 Shouts out to the soldiers — we respect the sacrifice even more now 🌏 Is China actually ahead of us?

  3. Were Not Getting Payed By Anyone And We Want Everyone To Know | SoberNotSober Ep.31

    Were Not Getting Payed By Anyone And We Want Everyone To Know | SoberNotSober Ep.31

    Grant and Mekaylay are back in the studio (Harley & Domino are running the booth as always) for another hour-plus of the kind of conversation you didn't know you needed. This week: the boys debate whether civilization could have ever functioned without money — and somehow make a compelling argument. JD Vance gets roasted for being the most obvious political flip-flopper in recent memory. Trump posts an AI picture of himself as Jesus and people are actually mad about it for the wrong reasons. The Epstein files get brought up (allegedly). And Grant has a Plan Z that ends with him in a very comfortable Swedish prison. Also on the table: Irish twins and the husband stitch, cats absolutely ruining work calls, Jack Black deserving more credit than he gets, Toby vs. Andrew vs. Tom (the only Spider-Man debate that matters), the wine industry spoon-feeding you garbage with a smile, and why you don't actually have free will at the grocery store. Harley doesn't say much. The cats say too much. If you made it to the end, you know exactly what to comment.

    There’s Only One Man Who Can Save Us | SoberNotSober Ep.30

    Grant and Mekaylay are back with a brand new setup — broadcasting from the West Coast studio in Burbank as they work toward building out their full multi-city operation. In Episode 30, we dive into what we'd actually do with unlimited free time (spoiler: neither of them really knows), Grant's new job and surprisingly relaxed schedule, the ongoing saga of his $120/month water delivery he still hasn't canceled, and his long-overdue discovery of what a 401k actually is. The episode goes sideways in the best way possible — Mekaylay accidentally knocked a bird's nest out of a tree during yard work, a mystery rapper and his entourage trashed an Airbnb Mekaylay company was hired to clean, Arsenal's Champions League chances, the Bears' cheese grater hats, Bo Burnham being the only one who can fix the world right now, and whether or not you can milk a bird (crop milk is real, look it up). They also address the antisemitic comments they keep getting on their clips, keep it real about the state of the world, and cap things off with thoughts on the new Super Mario Bros. movie. If you've made it this far — comment "the state of Israel" so they know you're real. Like, subscribe, and follow everywhere.

  5. Guilty of Being a Good Friend, Charged with Loyalty

    Guilty of Being a Good Friend, Charged with Loyalty

    This week on Sober Not Sober — Grant and Mekaylay are back and nothing is off limits. The duo dives deep into what it really means to have genuine people in your corner when life gets hard, sparked by a conversation about a legendary athlete going through one of the most public rough patches of his career — addiction, back surgeries, DUIs, and the question of whether the people around him are actually showing up. Grant breaks down a wild HBO documentary that goes inside the rise and fall of one of the greatest athletes of all time — Navy SEAL training that destroyed his knee (he still won the tournament), multiple back surgeries with rods, and a comeback that may be the greatest in sports history. They debate whether he's using pills out of addiction or genuine pain, whether his inner circle has failed him, and why Grant and Mekaylay are convinced they'd be the kind of real friends he actually needs right now. Also on the episode: Mekaylay's 85-year-old client who can't identify her neighbor's ethnicity, a grief deep dive into why old people say what they say, AI fruit people taking over TikTok, DoorDashing food that is literally 10 minutes away and absolutely zero shame about it, the tip jar guilt epidemic, Manscaped reviews nobody asked for, and Grant does a blind wine tasting while somehow connecting everything back to loyalty, friendship, and showing up. Real ones ride. Zero filter. As always. Like, subscribe, and shoot us an email — we actually read them.

    We're coming for you Mr Beast

    We hit 100 subscribers and we're coming for Mr. Beef — I mean, Mr. Beast. In this episode: Mekaylays Adopted childs friends leaves a pile of sardines on her doorstep (the Chens energy hits different), Grant gets told he looks exactly like a McDonald's drive-thru worker's dad, and we somehow end up debating who's most ready to get after it between Prince and Freddie Mercury. Plus: Grant accidentally flags our last video on YouTube with an inappropriate title, we shout out a dark artist with a killer Memento Mori piece, and we spiral into Beatles discourse, celebrity couples, and whether Ringo is actually overrated. We wrap up with a real conversation about sobriety — what "wishful thinking" looks like when you're four years clean, and what it means to build your own toolkit without following a program. It's chaotic. It's honest. It's us. 🎙 Like, comment, subscribe — and if you backlog it, we love you anyway.

    When You Find Out Whose Voicing Yoshi

    Grant and Mekaylay are back for another beautiful hour of unfiltered conversation. This week: Mekaylay watched a movie that ruined his perfect Saturday (spoiler: it wasn't good), and Grant recommends The Master — a 2012 cult classic with one of the greatest acting scenes ever put on screen. They also get into Ozzy Osbourne's powerful solo track "Under the Graveyard," the final season of Peaky Blinders, why GTA 6 might be the only game worth pre-ordering, the new Jujutsu Kaisen season that's apparently been Tarantino-fied, and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms — the Game of Thrones spinoff Mekaylay says you NEED to watch immediately. Plus: Animal Crossing debt, the Arizona heat apocalypse, a 20-year-old bottle of Temecula Zinfandel, Donald Glover as Yoshi, and a wild story about what people in Canada apparently believed about Black people and ice skates.

    Why The Peaky Blinders Are So Sad

    We are back for another chaotic episode of SoberNotSober — the podcast where one of them is sober and one of them very much is not. This week: a pug named Gizmo eats 30-50 ibuprofen pills (thanks to a cat heist), a grandpa interrupts a business meeting to show off his $2 bill collection, and the guys go deep on World War I, shell shock, PTSD, and how Peaky Blinders actually got it right. Plus: rehab, recovery, the disease of addiction, and what it means to be "hanging by a thread." Also: French Canadian band discourse, Punch the Monkey (you need to know him), Tiger Woods vs. the entire concept of athleticism, Taco Bell's glow-up, the McDonald's Big Arch, and a very sincere debate about whether Michael Jackson belongs in the top 10 athletes of all time. Grant also reveals he has a phone bedtime. Mekaylay is disgusted. Topics covered: Gizmo the pug's near-death ibuprofen saga World War I, trench warfare & the history of PTSD Peaky Blinders Season 6 spoilers + Thomas Shelby deep dive Rehab, recovery & meeting people at their best Elon Musk, world hunger & Mars priorities Angine De Poitrine (the French Canadian TikTok band) Punch the Monkey — abandoned baby macaque with an Ikea plushie Tiger Woods top 10 athlete debate Taco Bell Cantina Chicken & the Big Arch Vincent Van Gogh, insane asylums & psychiatric history Grant's phone bedtime & screen addiction 📧 sobernotsober69@gmail.com 📱 @sobernotsoberpod on all platforms ⭐ Leave a 5-star review if you're feeling generous It's a man's world, but it wouldn't be nothing without a woman or a girl.
