Ep. 56 - Joe Rogan, Aliens, and the Art of Weaving Conversations

Let's get casual ... casual ... I want to get casual. Anyway - we're back it with another CASUAL chat between Father and Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koelger. In this delightful episode of 'Casual Chats,' the guys kick things off post-bathroom break, diving into a curious mix of topics. The road takes an intriguing twist when show-fan Jared from Jacksonville asks if they listen to Joe Rogan, leading to an elaborate breakdown of Rogan's podcast dynamics, his eclectic guest roster, and the enormity of his YouTube success.

Ep. 55 - Blah, Blah, Blah, Legal Jargon: A Comedy of Errors

Remember that time when you tried to LAUGH while you LEARNED - and accidentally wet yourself? Well, let's try it again. Welcome to another "Casual Chat" with Father/Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koegler. Jeff and Steve kick it off by eyeballing the role of the Attorney General, then Steve offers a crash course on the complexities of the legal system. They cover everything from small claims court to the heavyweight Department of Justice, touching on controversial political appointments like Matt Gaetz and Pam Bondi, and the impact of corporate monopolies led by giants like Amazon and Visa. This casual conversation also extends to the practical challenges of legal representation and the barriers to entry in a convoluted legal system, including the roles of paralegals vs. lawyers and the intricacies of enforcing judgments and recovering assets (whew that hurt just typing it).

Ep. 53 - We're taking it back to George W. - NOT that ONE, George Washington!

Fourscore and who-knows years ago, we had an election this year. Father/Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koegler (who almost always have the dirty side down) are figuring it all out on this episode. Right before Steve puts his phone on airplane mode (finally), the discussion slithers into Trump territory. The recent election results are announced with a resounding red wave that handed Mr. Trump full control of the government, setting the stage for some bold moves. Opinions fly high as the conversation dissects the Democratic Party's failures and Trump's peculiar cabinet picks. There's even mention of Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's controversial commission. We wrap up with some humorous skepticism about the ambitious plans to turn back the government clock to George Washington's time. Intriguing, bewildering, and just a tad off-the-hip, this episode has it all!

Have you ever heard of the Zipper Merge? AND more importantly, do you care to hear about it now? In this jam-packed episode (HALFWAY through our season - you could drop us a rating or an email), our Father & Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koegler navigate through a series of seemingly mundane but highly relatable life challenges. A hilarious tangent on concert etiquette and traveling woes erupts, particularly focusing on the absurdity of TSA regulations and people's general behavior in airports. The main event, however, is an intense and witty debate over the 'zipper merge' traffic rule, bringing about slippery thoughts on driving etiquette and road rage. Jeff and Steve wrap it up with reflections on grocery shopping and the nutty nature of modern travel, all while weaving in the recurring theme of following the rules—or creatively bending them in the Koegler-fashion.
