    #234 - Hobbies Are Dangerous, Strava Warship, & Canceled Bachelorette Drama

    Happy National Grass is Always Browner on the Other Side of the Fence Day! We kick things off by admitting we are dropping a lot of balls lately. We share an update on the impending Craig Conover 10K challenge (which is only a week away and causing Erin severe anxiety), tease our upcoming interview with the CEO of the Enhanced Games, and excitedly announce that we might be doing a live podcast from the Fan Zone at the Boston Marathon! (still unsure if this is happening) Erin then recaps her stressful airport experience heading to Puerto Rico, where a relaxing visit to the lounge turned into a full blown panic sprint across terminals. We also share Dan's Puerto Rico adventure where he called the Coast Guard to rescue missing kite surfers, only to end up chatting about helicopters with a maintenance worker. The ultimate lesson learned? Having hobbies will just make you "go dead." We also settle the debate on the difference between a modem and a router. In sports news, we celebrate the US Sled Hockey team securing the "Golden Hat Trick" with an epic behind the back pass from Brody, and shout out our friend Trey Cunningham for winning bronze at the Indoor World Track and Field Championships. We then critique the 2026 Paris Marathon's plan to go completely bottle free, which seemingly involves waterboarding runners with high powered hoses. Finally, we cover a massive wave of pop culture and internet news. We honor the "passing" of Chuck Norris by reading classic memes, break down the shocking cancellation of The Bachelorette (featuring Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul) just days before airing, and expose a French military officer who leaked a warship's location via a Strava run. For "How About We Just Die," we discuss the horrifying viral video of a guy who cooked his steaks with plastic decorative garland for six months thinking it was fresh rosemary. We wrap it all up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" about an entire high school boys' basketball team showing up to cheer on their biggest fans: a local 4th grade team.

    #233 - Rethink Sports, "Popcorn Reading" Trauma, & Restaurant Pickle Conspiracy

    Happy National Puppy Day! We kick things off with Erin absolutely spiraling from sleep deprivation, the Daylight Saving Time change, and the stress of editing 360 camera footage from her Adidas brand trip while frantically packing for Puerto Rico. Meanwhile, Mike shares a wild update from a recent card show where his friend flipped a box of Japanese Pokémon cards for an insane amount in cold, hard cash. We also drop some massive podcast news: we officially secured media passes to the Microsoft Excel World Championships in Las Vegas (and potentially the Enhanced Games)! Between celebrating our upcoming media credentials and dreaming of getting cast on The Traitors or The Price is Right, we debate the childhood trauma of "popcorn reading" versus "when the spirit moves you," and try to uncover the deep conspiracy behind why restaurant pickles taste infinitely better than the ones from the grocery store. In sports and pop culture, we investigate a major theft where a pro bowler had 17 custom bowling balls stolen right off his porch. We celebrate Sephora's landmark partnership with F1 Academy driver Natalia Granada, and expose Jake Paul for allegedly wearing a fake "lace-front" beard to hide the scars from his recent jaw surgery. We also touch on Logan Paul’s flag football marketing beef with Tom Brady. We then revisit the infamous fishing tournament scandal where a competitor was caught stuffing lead weights into his catch and now faces felony charges (which somehow leads us into a rant about inflation and housing prices). We break down the chaotic ending of the LA Marathon where the leader was accidentally directed off course, allowing a high school coach to snatch the win—prompting us to officially coin our new podcast slogan: "Rethink Sports." We also explain the science behind why e-sports pros sit two inches away from their monitors, and finally wrap up with a heartwarming "No Bad, No Sad" story about an entire lacrosse team showing up in full practice gear to passionately cheer on their teammate at a spelling bee.

    #232 - Ski Lift Disaster, 2026 Paralympics, & CEO Challenges

    Happy National Act Happy Day! We kick off the episode with Erin running on fumes after arriving home at 2 AM from a chaotic travel day, while Mike recaps his icy East Coast ski trip with Dan. Mike shares the struggles of renting gear, surviving the bunny hill, and a terrifying ski lift dismount where he was almost folded in half. Erin then gives a full debrief of her luxurious, over the top Adidas brand trip in Santa Monica. From walking into pitch black soundstages to accidentally sitting on someone else's display shoes and reintroducing herself to the same executive three times. Erin also details the stress of discovering the "slow" group run pace was a 10 minute mile. In sports, Erin goes on a passionate rant about the Paralympic coverage, calling out NBC for airing Alpine Skiing without any commentators or context, and exposing the disappointing changes made to the snowboarding course. We also discuss the hilarious internet trend demanding CEOs use their own products—like forcing the Ticketmaster CEO to buy pre-sale tickets or the Kleenex CEO to get the first tissue out of the box. For "Tea Time", we unpack the messy drama surrounding bodybuilder Malibu Fit Max, who lied to stop internet trolls. We wrap things up by questioning why celebrities are suddenly buying underground doomsday bunkers, a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" featuring toddlers whispering voiceovers for their dad's bakery, and Erin's ongoing struggle to finish The Alchemist.

    #231 - Stealing Olives, Paralympic Drama, & The Al Roker Billboard

    Happy March 9th! (Or whatever day it is, because time is a construct). We kick off the episode by discussing our nighttime routines. Mike shares how he and Sam wind down with Wordle and Connections, while trying to read The Chronicles of Narnia instead of endlessly scrolling TikTok. We also preview an upcoming boys' ski trip where Mike and Dan will try to survive the slopes before the spring weather and Boston Marathon season officially take over. Then, we dive into the high-stakes anxiety of grocery shopping. Erin’s fear of doing the "wrong thing" reached new heights when she accidentally left a gourmet jar of olives in her reusable bag. In our massive Winter Paralympics preview, we discuss the badass sport of biathlon (they ski with guns on their backs!), para snowboard drama with Brenna Huckaby. We also check in with our favorite "Dark Horse Dani" (Dani Aravich), who sends us an update from the Italian Dolomites about infuriating the locals by eating daily gelato in the winter just to gain weight for her races. Finally, we break down a bizarre niche internet rabbit hole: a TikTok creator who hires entertainers—like magicians, clowns, and a Tom Cruise impersonator—to perform exclusively for him in his empty house, which recently resulted in an accidental therapy session with a motivational speaker. We wrap it all up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" story about a mystery fan putting up a giant billboard dedicated to Al Roker, and Al's delightfully coy reaction to his very own monument.

    #230 - The Most Difficult Sports, Bathroom Hover, Reality TV Powerpoint

    Happy National Get Over It Day! (Actually it's not get over it day and we totally messed this up). We kick off the episode by testing out our new "professional" green screen setup, avoiding "shrimp-backing" in our chairs. Erin recaps a rare date night at a microbrewery where Dan became best friends with random strangers. In fitness news, Erin gives an update on her Craig Conover 10K training—surviving a brutal, side-stitch-inducing 3-mile run—and her ongoing quest to do one pull up. She also shares her strategy of making a literal PowerPoint presentation to teach her reality TV hating friends about Southern Charm, and expresses her anxiety over an upcoming Adidas brand trip (fingers crossed for a "donut and hiking" group). Then, we dive into a massive Olympics and sports recap. We demand a scoring bonus for figure skater Amber Glenn after she won gold while on her period, debate ESPN's list of the most difficult sports (putting basketball over gymnastics is a crime). We also call out NBC for allegedly paying Snoop Dogg $500,000 a day, review the wildest Olympic drama (from the Mark Kennedy curling scandal to a biathlete confessing to infidelity on live TV), and praise Eileen Gu for flawlessly shutting down a dumb reporter's question. Plus, we discuss a corporate brand that blatantly copied Erin’s unhinged purple tank top and yellow sweatband look for a TV commercial. Finally, we cover a wild story about a British Airways flight crew who had to be grounded after accidentally hallucinating on passenger-gifted THC gummy bears, and we call out Logan Paul's shady $16.5 million Pokémon card sale after shutting down the fractional NFT app that funded it. We wrap things up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" story about a girl who corralled dozens of strangers—including pilots and flight attendants—at an airport baggage claim to give her friend Morgan the ultimate welcome home.

    #229 - Curling Cheating Scandal, "Quad God" Heartbreak, & A Marathon in Denim

    Happy National Curling is Cool Day! We celebrate the holiday with a special in person episode from Mike’s basement, kicking things off with a major update on the Craig Conover 10K challenge: the race has been officially moved to April 7th to allow for more training (and fundraising). Erin gives a fitness update involving a "hit run" and her struggle to do pull ups while wearing heavy snow boots. We then dive into a massive Olympic recap, discussing the heartbreak of "Quad God" Ilia Malinin and the wild curling cheating scandal involving Canada, Sweden, and a "hidden" camera. We analyze the absurdity of "Doubles Luge" (and propose a "Triple Stack" version), demand the immediate return of Ski Ballet, and review the fascinating day jobs of Olympians -- -- from a maple syrup shop worker to a snowboarder who is a concrete pourer. We also shout out the 50 year old personal injury attorney who subbed in for the curling team. In other sports news, we break down the beef between Logan Paul and Tom Brady, discuss the record breaking $31 million NASCAR purse, and marvel at the man who ran the Austin Marathon wearing full denim jeans and a belt. We also explain the UK phenomenon of the "Binfluencer"—the neighbor who signals which trash bin to put out—and wrap up with a heartwarming "No Bad News" story about United Airlines employees donating 15,000 Pokémon cards to a little boy who lost his binder.

    #228 - Ski Jumper Cheating, Crying on the Local News & A Chef Boyardee Racecar

    Happy National Do a Grouch a Favor Day! We kick off the episode with a recap of Erin’s chaotic appearance on the local WFMZ news, where she accidentally crashed a tearful anchor goodbye while wearing a $368 Team USA Ralph Lauren sweater and "hard pants." Bo was so impressed he offered to cover the upcoming Craig Conover 10K race from a news van. Speaking of the 10K, we review some diabolical listener suggestions for the loser's punishment—from taking the SATs to running from Deputy Dog Radar in a bite suit. Then we dive into a massive Winter Olympics recap. We review the Milan Opening Ceremony and passionately defend Lindsey Vonn from the haters after her devastating crash. We also celebrate our official "Swiffer Curling" manifestation coming true for Chris Plys, debate whether the Snoop Dogg commentary gimmick is getting tired (should Elmo or Gordon Ramsay replace him?), and praise Team USA's tailored outfits alongside Mongolia’s effortlessly "dripped out" uniforms. We also uncover the most insane sports cheating scandal of the year: male ski jumpers injecting their private parts with hyaluronic acid to increase their suit's aerodynamic airtime. In other sports news, we celebrate Ricky Stenhouse Jr.'s iconic Chef Boyardee NASCAR wrap and merch drop, while Erin spirals over an offer to caddy at a professional PGA tour event, fearing a sweaty, club dropping disaster. Finally, we time travel to recap a mostly boring Super Bowl. We complain about the endless pharmaceutical and crypto ads, but applaud 50 Cent’s incredibly petty DoorDash commercial taking shots at Diddy. We also review Bad Bunny’s halftime show, praising the stunning set design, Puerto Rican cultural pride, and the emotional moment he handed a Grammy to his younger self. We wrap it all up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" story about a Japanese volleyball player who hit a sideline worker with a ball and practically slid across the court on his belly to profusely apologize.

    #227 - Skyscraper Nightmare, $100 Million Gift, Penguin With No Brakes

    Happy National Clean Out Your Computer Day! We start the episode by reflecting on the trauma of losing digital files and Erin’s current state of being on her "proverbial deathbed" with a mystery illness (shoutout to Pedialyte and Motrin). We recap the recent snowstorm, which featured Dan hitching a ride on a snowmobile to ski down a neighbor’s hill, a MacGyver-style ski boot repair using a leather belt, and the stark contrast between our silent icy roads and the "vibey" snow day parties at the Philadelphia Art Museum. In pop culture and documentaries, we discuss the anxiety-inducing Netflix livestream of a Alex Honnold free climbing the Taipei 101 skyscraper and review the Brian Johnson anti-aging documentary, debating whether living forever is worth eating "veggie mush" every single day. We also dive into the "New England Patriots Catering Menu" TikTok that revealed the insane amount of food available to players, from omelet stations to endless tables of silver warmers. Finally, we cover a massive wave of Olympic news: the "Good Billionaire Boy" Ross Stevens donating $100 million to support Team USA athletes, Lindsey Vonn’s heartbreaking crash just a week before the games, and some mind-blowing stats about the Opening Ceremony in Milan. We also share skeleton racer Mystique Ro’s hilarious description of her sport as a "penguin with no brakes," break down Sha’carri Richardson’s arrest for speeding, and issue a simple demand: Free Darius.
