Ep. 10 - Invite with Intent
An invitation always feels good, but sometimes it's a lifesaver. Chuck and Jared discuss some of the most impactful invitations they've received and (even though the movie was kind of lame) how they try to pay it forward. Here there be blue bashing, primal parenting, and mushy moments. And Jared does not rap.
-
Ep. 9 - Lunch Break
It's a quick one over lunch! The boys tackle some sandwiches and some quick tips for hosting a low-key lunch-time...lounge-session. Here there be font failures, salsa failures, and sandwich failures. And Jared absolutely loses his mind.
-
Ep. 8 - Chuck vs Jared
Two men. Too many opinions. Chuck and Jared meet in a strange, undisclosed location to passionately debate some of life's least-worried-about questions. Here there be sandwich abominations, drill-based spectral activity, and a lack of respect for fruit harmony. And Jared raps.

Ep. 7 - How to Host as an Introvert
"I'm an introvert so I shouldn't host, right?" Don't be fooled by their gregarious, boisterous exterior - Chuck and Jared are introverts at heart. Despite this fact (or maybe because of it) they manage to have oodles of social gatherings in their homes. Learn their secrets and go from introvert to win-trovert.

Ep. 6 - Competitive Dating
It’s most important to host those closest to you. If you are married, the surest way to stay that way is to treat your spouse as your most esteemed guest. Jared and Chuck discuss their sure-fire tips for date night at home. Here there be raging ravers, professions of cast iron love, and a misguided agist tirade. And Jared lies.

Ep. 5 - The Art of the Invite
Maya Angelou said, "When you invite someone to sit at your table and you want to cook for them, you're inviting a person into your life." She also said, "Dang, that's stressful though" (No she didn't). For many the first step to hosting is the hardest. Chuck and Jared discuss their anxieties and strategies around invitations. Here there be pizza redemption, improvised cooling, and beverage betrayal. And Jared gets back to his roots.
Customer Reviews
Crack a beer, have a listen
When I was younger, so much younger than today, I never needed anybody's help in any way. But now I'm older and I feel so insecure... At least I did until this podcast taught me to host like never before.
Great Motivation
This is a great motivational podcast for getting all of us to host our friends more often. If these two guys can do it, so can we.
Very Entertaining
These guys could spend 45 minutes talking about doing their taxes and it would still be entertaining. Not only do these guys have some great stories and experiences to share, but the personality they bring while sharing these things makes for some of the best listening you will find in a podcast. I am already planning some meals around the barbecue sauces they crafted and would highly recommend listening to these “ding-dongs”, it is well worth your time.
