    43: The Ryan Baker Experience

    43: The Ryan Baker Experience

    This episode has been sitting on the back burner for a few weeks now but features the return of Ryan Baker to the show. We took the time to catch up and chat about life, the struggle of the recent college grad, and a few other lighter topics along the way. Ryan had a lot to say which made editing the show a little tougher, but hopefully you enjoy #RobTakesOn the Ryan Baker Experience.

    42: Sports? As Told By Andrew Gillis

    42: Sports? As Told By Andrew Gillis

    As we get back into the swing of things and the world continues to reach a sense of normalcy again, I felt it appropriate to bring on Andrew Gillis of NBC Sports Washington. We talk everything from what it's like covering sports in a pandemic to how he got to the desk...or home office, that he's in now. 25 years and a job with no job security will change a man, and Andrew is chalk full of wisdom throughout this weeks episode of #RobTakesOn Sports? as told by Andrew Gillis. 



    You can find Andrews work on NBCSportsWashington.com or on Twitter @Andrew_Gillis70.

From Matt's journey through this Facebook Group to his key insights from it, we go over a lot, so give us a listen as #RobTakesOn Born Millennial with Matt Duffy.

    40: Midterms and other Podcast Updates

    40: Midterms and other Podcast Updates

    Welcome...back...? I guess to #RobTakesOn. After Covid-19 shut the world down, pretty much any plans for this show went out the window. This week I'm back to talk a little bit about my grad school experience, announce a new co-host, and talk about the future of RobTakesOn and whatever that may hold.

    39: Tough Conversations

    39: Tough Conversations

    This week I got to sit across the table from a friend whom I have incredible respect for. Lauren and I talked a little bit about life after college and a world without RA's before getting into some tough conversations about racism in our communities as well as on a grander level. It became very clear to us throughout our hour together that this is a very layered issue that has more questions and problems than it has answers and solutions. 

    This episode certainly does not fix racism in America, but tough conversations are a good start.

    38: SAT Words and Sleep Talking

    When in doubt, call Carter back on the show because who better to shoot the breeze and talk about nothing than the guy you're moving back in with. This week Carter and I talk about moving back in together, some subconscious conversations, and a quick update on some Floridian happenings. This week on #RobTakesOn SAT Words and Sleep Talking.
