    Ep. 11: Mariah's Loverboy Video in 4K, HOA Drama, and Five Thousand Kelvin Carl

    What's in the box: This week we're getting into Mariah's Loverboy video, which she just released remastered in 4K. But first, we go on a tangent about a TikTok comment section roasting a man named Carl and his very bright lights, which turns into a full debate on HOAs, neighborhood rules, and who gets to tell you what to do with your own front yard. Then a listener from Atlanta asks us to settle the score: is the Loverboy video underrated, or are we all just nostalgic? We break down the looks, the hair, that famous red bandana, and all the details we can finally see after 25 years. We also talk about the David LaChapelle connection, how the video was remastered from the original film, and where it ranks among her best videos. The box is open, the mics are on. Let's get into it. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro and why Mariah is back on the menu 02:01 TikTok comment sections and the HOA debate 12:17 Listener suggestion: the Loverboy 4K video 16:37 Loverboy era, the scandal, and the public reaction 19:00 David LaChapelle and his work with Mariah 23:12 How the 4K remaster was made 31:28 The hair, the bandana, and the boots 36:25 Where does Loverboy rank? 41:43 The three versions of Loverboy 43:07 Your turn: tell us what you think 📥 Have a suggestion: Tell us here 📲 DM us: Instagram | TikTok 🎧 Follow us: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | iHeartRadio | YouTube 🎙️ Want more Mariah?

Then they react to the week's political headlines, including the new White House press secretary, before settling in on the story everyone is talking about, the Kelly Clarkson shop controversy. After watching the security footage and going through both sides, the guys explain why they're Team Kelly and what the shop owner could have done differently when it came to customer service. In the advice segment, a listener confesses to nudging an abandoned parking lot shopping cart a little too hard into someone's car and wants to know if they should feel bad, which prompts Dan to share his own grocery store cart showdown.

    Ep. 9: Vote Dan for iHeartRadio's Top Podcast Host, Gypsy Rose Blanchard News, and Can You Stay Friends With an Ex?

    VOTE FOR DAN: https://tophost.org/2026/dan-enriquez What's in the box: Martín and Dan are back with a jam packed pop culture and true crime podcast episode, and they need your help. Dan is competing in Ryan Seacrest's top podcast host contest, where the winner gets $25,000 and a six part series produced by iHeartRadio. His pitch is an in depth Mariah Carey career podcast, and you can vote for free once a day (link below). Then Martín reports on some wild neighborhood gossip from his street in Sydney, including houses hitting the market and a shocking crime on the block. In the crime report, a longtime listener sparks a deep dive into the latest Gypsy Rose Blanchard news, from the HBO documentary Mommy Dead and Dearest to the headlines surrounding the death of her fiancé. That leads to a tangent on Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos, plus the AI generated YouTube content that fooled Martín. For this week's suggestions, Martín spotlights Tinashe's new album Pop Star and Dan can't stop playing Jamie Miller's viral TikTok hit "Baby Doll." Finally, a listener from Chicago asks whether it's possible to stay friends with an ex after a recent breakup, and the guys weigh in on timing, mixed friend groups, and not leading someone on. The box is open, the mics are on. Let's get into it.
