    Super Bowl Party?

    John and Jen open season 4 with a podcast recorded during Super Bowl LX. Jen is already blocking time for after her first fiscal year end as a supervisor. John can be noted as causing a lot of "can't even" with his co-host. [Editor's note: Whilst Costco has upped the sample game, they do not yet offer a similar feature to "Scan and Go" at Sam's Club. Their version is currently in a pilot program in select markets and will soon be available nationwide. Also, Google Assistant can be credited with complimenting the considerate driver whom uses voice-to-text and has manners...via Android Auto.] #superBowlParty #jjTheGarage #superBowlSunday #superBowlLX #milanOlympics2026 #samsClub #freezeDriedSkittles #sneakingInToCostco #superBowlCommercials #stealingBabies #quiltClub #theCraft #countTheOrnaments #googleAssistant #puertoRico #milwaukee #ginBlossoms #milwaukeeAdmirals #sunflowers #vacationPlanning #noseJob #MKEbaconfest #preventativeCare #vocalTremors #neurologist #ope #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage

    Trust each other

    J & J share their spotify wrapped, last google searches and photo rolls live when this was recorded in late 2025. They informally ask Reel Big Fish and Gin Blossoms to play some sort of 50th birthday party. Please subscribe and we'll figure out how to notify you when new episodes drop! Update: We did take the trip to Canada for our 7th Anniversary. We also bought an oscillating heater for the garage. As of 2/6/2026, though, we're back above freezing. [Editor's note: Capybaras and sulcata tortoises can live together but the google says it is nearly impossible to maintain. The podcast co-hosted by the future Mr. Swift is called "New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce"] #trustEachOther #jjTheGarage #spotifyWrapped2025 #soulAsylum #ginBlossoms #addisonAdvantage #addisonMichigan #alpacas #bubbaTheSulcata #spotifyForCreators #ledZeppelin #terriClark #sherylCrow #myHumps #melissaEtheridge #aliciaKeys #pinkFloyd #theChicks #ladyGaga #taylorSwift #newHeights #chrisStapleton #fleetwoodMac #reelBigFish #rumplestiltskin #spinningYarn #folklore #theErasTour #dudeDad #windyCityWheelers #voloMeatMarket #mcHenryRiverwalk #goebbertsPingreeGrove #23Mansion #homeAloneHouse #christmasVacation #ahsokaTheNewf #texasRoadhouse #theGrinch #dogProfilePics #nashville #chicagoBears #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage

    Never too late to change your mind

    J & J welcome Rogue back to the garage in this episode recorded in Autumn of 2025. They all discuss voice acting, flex spending, practicing arguments and a Midwest phrase.

    Wander

    J & J suggest their listeners wander for mental health. They share their amazon carts with each other and try their googling powers live. [Editor's note: This is the first of four episodes recorded in 2025 for season 3. The holidays were busy, and the editor often fills his time. Many apologies.] #wander #jjTheGarage #lakeGeneva #farmersAlmanac #punnyRoadSigns #blindspotChecker #kuipersAppleCiderDonuts #telemundoUnivision #alaskaLicensePlate #hrVideos #menards #rainForestCafe #beetlejuice #ralphWiggum #simpsonsYellow #finalDestination #zepWallCleaner #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage

    Follow through

    John praises Jen's follow through towards her personal goals, including annual participation in the Great Cycle Challenge. They took a trip to New England this past Labor Day and share some highlights. ...and Jen did get the Halloween blow-up that she wanted. [Editor's note: while it is creepy, taking a picture of a license plate is not itself illegal. If you use the picture with malicious intent (stalking), you can incur penalties. Otherwise, it is generally safe to post a license plate publicly, as long as there is no other personal identifiable information.] #followThrough #jjTheGarage #theMask #flannelWeather #cardigan #samsClub #cvsDiscountShopping #laborDayTravel #girlMath #newEngland #greatCycleChallenge #snappedDerailleur #onePeloton #brosOvertalking #licensePlateGame #freeCarwash #freeStarbucks #excelsior #tomfoolery #walkingSticks #gallonOfTea #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage

    Do your bucketlist, yo

    J & J talk about their bucketlist item; visiting the state fair. While it was still fresh, they converse around Princess Leia, English Bulldog, whom also attended said trip, the various events they attended sweatily, and the inconsistencies of the grandstand's plastic cup policy. [Editor's note: John incorrectly identified a "thrust stage" as an "ego stage" . Synonyms include "open stage" and "platform stage" but alas, not "ego stage"] #doYourBucketlistYo #jjTheGarage #ilStateFair #hotBalls #roadTripWithBulldog #bulldogsInTheHeat #bulldogsInTallGrass #sherylCrow #snoopDogg #warrenG #bradPaisley #egoStage #thrustStage #defLeppard #dariusRucker #patrickNewson #ginBlossoms #bucketOfDonuts #demolitionDerby #pigMisting #ribEyeSandwich #cowboyPotatoes #hellmannsMayo #thatShitIsBananas #natalieMerchant #reelBigFish #seniorPrices #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage
