    BIlly & Willie's Workshop: EP 3.10 Ask Billy & Willie: The Call-In Advice Show (Bad Decisions, Good Stories & Brutal Honesty)

    This week inside Billy & Willie’s Workshop, the conversation starts with a milestone — Willie turning 70 years old — and the guys immediately dive into the realities of aging, perspective, and the unofficial strategy of finding people your age who look worse so you can feel better about yourself. From there the conversation quickly goes off the rails. Billy brings up the mystery of the China Hutch debate — why every family seems to have one, why nobody actually uses it, and the strange emotional attachment people have to furniture that mostly just holds plates no one is allowed to touch. Then things take a turn when Bill receives a video that immediately sparks reactions in the workshop. The guys break down the situation, debate what they would do if they were in the same position, and deliver their signature mix of brutally honest and hilariously questionable advice. The show also features the debut of “Ask Billy & Willie”, where listeners call in looking for real-life advice. The guys tackle several wild Reddit relationship and life questions, reacting to awkward scenarios, strange relationship dilemmas, and some absolutely insane situations people claim are real. As always, the conversation drifts between storytelling, life perspective, and the kind of bar-stool commentary that makes Billy & Willie’s Workshop feel like hanging out with two guys who have decades of stories and aren’t afraid to tell them. Expect laughs, questionable advice, and a few moments where you’ll wonder how this show hasn’t been canceled yet. Grab a drink and pull up a chair — the workshop is open.

Expect plenty of laughs, off-the-rails conversations, and the kind of real comedy road stories that make stand-up life both ridiculous and unforgettable.

    Billy & Willie Workshop: EP 3.8 Willie has a tiny head

    Willie has lost so much weight that Billy and Chris are pretty sure he is auditioning for the small head guy character in Beetlejuice. Billy talks about his fun over the weekend with wheel chair basketball and Chris reads a "having relations with dead deer" reddit story. You know, a typical Tuesday evening.

    Billy and Willie's Workshop: EP 3.5 rump, Politics, and Saying the Quiet Part Out Loud

    In this episode of Billy & Willie’s Workshop, the gloves come off as the guys dive headfirst into a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation about Donald Trump, politics, media narratives, and how people on all sides react to it. Billy and Willie break down their frustrations, observations, and opinions on leadership, accountability, hypocrisy, and why political conversations feel more divided — and louder — than ever. From media coverage to public perception to why certain topics instantly turn toxic, nothing is tiptoed around and nothing is sanitized. This isn’t a debate stage or a talking-points podcast. It’s two guys saying exactly what they think, reacting in real time, challenging narratives, and having the kinds of conversations most people only have off-mic. Raw. Opinionated. Honest. And very much Billy & Willie.
