    #23: Adult Friendships: Quality Over Chaos

    We get real about the chaos of maintaining relationships in a world that never shuts up. We dive into why a tiny, loyal inner circle beats a massive social network any day, and why most “friends” online wouldn’t survive five minutes in real life. We unpack the pressure to be everything to everyone, how social media turns every opinion into a public trial, and why so many people feel drained by constant connection. We also question how extroverts juggle huge friend groups without spontaneously combusting, and what it actually looks like to stay authentic when everyone’s watching. 03:33 The Importance of a Core Group of Friends 12:56 Navigating Social Media and Opinions 21:51 The Noise of Modern Life 27:48 Navigating the Exhaustion of Rabbit Holes 28:55 The Charlie Kirk Conundrum 34:53 Social Media Overload 37:09 The Value of Core Relationships 43:04 Balancing Authenticity and Social Expectations Follow us on Instagram, YouTube, & TikTok @dontevenbotherpod, email us at dontevenbotherpodcast@gmail.com, & share with your cool friends :)

    #22: Joey McPeek...America's Favorite Home Inspector

    We're lucky to be joined by Joey McPeek — “America’s Favorite Home Inspector” and owner of Peek Home Inspections — for a behind-the-scenes look at what really goes into inspecting a home. Joey shares how he made the leap from South Carolina to Idaho, built a standout business, and turned home inspections into something people actually want to watch on social media. We get into what inspectors are really looking for, why thoroughness matters more than speed, and how Joey balances running a growing business with real life. He also breaks down his ‘Peek Premium Inspection’, the perfect solution for anyone who's super analytical and must know every detail first-hand. It’s an honest, entertaining conversation about work ethic, modern business, and doing things the right way.

    #21: Unpacking the Whiteness Narrative

    We're cutting straight into the chaos surrounding the so-called “pandemic of whiteness” and the nonstop blame narrative that comes with it. We talk honestly about what it’s like to be living in this culture obsessed with assigning guilt. We call out media theatrics, social-media pile-ons, performative “equity,” and the erosion of merit, while touching on divisive politics, immigration debates, and the lingering fallout from COVID-era policies. The result? Collective burnout—and we’re done pretending it’s fine. 01:31 Social Media Influence and Manufactured Hate 03:36 Merit-Based Systems vs. Diversity 07:06 Racism and Historical Context 10:27 Cultural Appreciation and Division 18:00 Immigration and Border Control 23:37 Illegal Immigration and Crime 24:22 Human Trafficking and Open Borders 27:54 COVID-19 and Social Experimentation 31:30 Media Influence and Public Perception 39:09 Personal Responsibility and Meritocracy Follow us on Instagram, YouTube, & TikTok @dontevenbotherpod, email us at dontevenbotherpodcast@gmail.com, & share with your cool friends :)

    #20: The World of Government Affairs, Explained

    We’re joined by Travis Jones, a Government Affairs consultant in Idaho, for a rad conversation that breaks down what lobbying actually looks like beyond the headlines. Travis shares how a love of history landed him in Washington, D.C., the moments that made him say “this place is wild,” and why he ultimately traded Beltway chaos for Idaho life. We talk policy, integrity, and the real-world impact of political decisions across agriculture, healthcare, renewable energy, and private property rights — plus the culture shock of trading D.C. chaos for Idaho life. Along the way, Travis drops candid stories, sharp insights, and a few moments you won’t hear anywhere else. Fun, informative, and refreshingly unfiltered. 00:37 The Journey to Becoming a Lobbyist 01:59 The Origin of the Term 'Lobbyist' 07:52 Life in Washington, DC 14:14 Post 9/11 DC Experience 34:02 Coming Back to Idaho 38:00 Cultural Shifts and Corporate Strategy 46:53 Transitioning to Lobbying 01:00:01 Balancing Growth and Preservation in Idaho Follow us on Instagram, YouTube, & TikTok @dontevenbotherpod, email us at dontevenbotherpodcast@gmail.com, & share with your cool friends :)

    #19: Faith, Culture, and the Price of Tolerance

    Time to dive into a raw and personal journey of faith — from a New Age childhood to embracing Catholicism as an adult. We talk about spiritual warfare, the reality of holding onto faith in a chaotic world, and what it feels like to watch cultural values shift faster than we can keep up. We get into the societal obsession of being “tolerant” of everything (ps: it’s gone too far!), the attacks on Christians, and the growing discomfort many people feel as Western culture changes around them. We also unpack the rise of competing belief systems, the erosion of traditional values, and why standing firm in your faith and everything you believe in matters now more than ever. Honest, messy, and thought-provoking — in other words, absolutely in our lane. 01:02 Personal Journey to Faith 03:31 Discovering Catholicism 06:46 Profound Experiences and Conversion 10:32 Challenges and Spiritual Warfare 11:25 Societal Issues and Faith 28:27 Freedom of Speech and Consequences 30:25 Concerns About Cultural Integration 31:09 Islam and American Values 33:55 Tolerance and Its Limits 35:10 Standing Up for Beliefs 41:13 Faith and Spirituality Follow us on Instagram, YouTube, & TikTok @dontevenbotherpod, email us at dontevenbotherpodcast@gmail.com, & share with your cool friends :)
