Trudging Along

Acting Out Productions

To trudge: the slow, weary, depressing yet determined walk of a man who has nothing left in life except the impulse to simply soldier on. Each week, Trev and Dave chat about nothing too relevant or anything too serious as they attempt to laugh at all the things that don't make sense about being alive. Not that it really matters though - we're all just trudging along.

    Disney Adults, Broken Fingers, and The Worst Audition Ever

    This week on Trudging Along, Trev and Dave spiral into one of their weirdest, most unhinged episodes yet. We cover everything from American Thanksgiving to the John Candy doc, Dave waking up with zero memory of who he is, Trev overdosing on edibles before football Sunday, and Dave’s dream about being kidnapped by inbred barn-dwellers for five years. Completely normal stuff. We also dive into: The absolute hell of audition waiting rooms Social media follower politics in casting Dave shattering his fingertip at the gym Lego obsessions and Disney adults Holiday burnout, adulting, and why life felt easier as kids A package unboxing from Into The AM (graphic tees that actually look sick) It’s rambling, it’s honest, it’s chaotic — in other words, classic Trudging Along.

    Wild Wild Mess: Celebs, Teacher Scandals, and Terminal Thoughts

    This episode starts with “running on fumes” and only gets more chaotic. Trev and Dave unpack the weird morality of fame, teacher-student headlines, aging stars, and how social media turned into a digital circus. Somehow it’s dark, funny, and a little too relatable. Trudging never looked so messy. Check out the video for this episode on YouTube!

    Callbacks, Cocktails, and Crushing Doubt

    This week, Trev and Dave talk about chasing dreams without losing your mind (or your bank account). From callbacks and bartending, to audition wins and mental spirals, it’s a real look at what it means to keep pushing, even when the goalposts keep moving. But it’s not all existential dread! There’s laughter, petty rants, genuine support, and a reminder that even when it feels like you’re standing still… you’re still in the game. Still standing, still swinging. Still waiting for the callback. If you’ve ever chased something creative (or just tried not to lose your spark) this one’s for you.   We talk about: • Chasing acting gigs • The shame-spiral of ambition • Why being broke and hopeful is better than rich and dead inside • And how sometimes trudging forward just means showing up and bitching into a mic Video version available on YouTube

    Uncrustables, Cults, and Collared Shirts

    It starts with a parking ticket and ends somewhere between golf fashion, sex party conspiracies, and why society’s held together by duct tape and blind optimism. Dave and Trevor break down the hidden costs of cheap flights, the vanity of university systems, and how golf attire might be the biggest scam of all. Along the way: musings on sainthood, cult recruitment, Tom Cruise’s body, and whether you could land a plane with zero training. Just another day Trudging Along.

    You're Right to Hate These People

    Uber scams, bike delivery rage, and a meatball sub that took over an hour to arrive — Trev and Dave go off on everything that’s driving them nuts lately. They also wax nostalgic about video stores, GameCube classics, and Paul Rudd’s Super Nintendo ad before spiraling into a full-blown AI anxiety spiral. And yes, we do say “c***” a lot. Sorry? Maybe? It’s fast, funny, and just the right amount of unhinged. You can also watch the episode on our YouTube Channel

    Pub Crawls, Catholic School, & The Shallow End of Growing up

    Trevor and Dave trade stories from their messy younger years—under-bridge drinking, awkward high school moments, and Catholic school chaos. It’s the kind of honesty that only surfaces long after the hangover wears off. Check out our YouTube channel to get the video version of the podcast, and follow us on Instagram @beermeguys. Cheers!

    Compost, Cold Symptoms & Collective Soul
