    #8 Why Is the Rum Gone?

    This episode of Ripped kicks off with a little controlled chaos as Jerky, Melissa, Randy, Sara B., Taylor, and Jess jump into Johnny Depp’s Three Hearts Rum, Daisy Duke audition talk, rodeo prep, Hot August Nights plans, hot takes, gambling stories, weird TikToks, and plenty of off-the-rails laughs. From rum reviews and rodeo cleanses to corn musicals, karaoke debates, thrift store chaos, and time-travel homework, this one is exactly what Ripped does best: real talk, good vibes, and complete madness with friends...

    #7 We Taught Lindsey How to Drink… Oops

    The crew is back after a short break with special guest Lindsey. They kick things off with a Basil Hayden Dark Rye whiskey tasting, sharing tips on how to properly taste whiskey and reacting to Lindsey’s first experience. From there, the conversation jumps into local events, including their experience at a paranormal circus, behind-the-scenes thoughts on live entertainment, and crowd behavior. The episode also dives into upcoming shows, Daisy Duke auditions, and what it takes to perform in front of big crowds—along with plenty of unfiltered jokes, random tangents, and classic RIPPED chaos throughout..

    #6 AI, IVDD and Inappropriate Sound Effects

    In this episode of Ripped, the crew kicks things off with a WhistlePig PiggyBack 6-Year whiskey tasting while Dakota joins the chaos with a custom Dutch Bros mystery drink challenge. The conversation quickly spirals (as usual) into wild Valentine’s Day stories, wedding and DJ event recaps, and a behind-the-scenes breakdown of their first successful Wine Dancing event at Reno Public Market. Things get hilariously unhinged as they debate AI taking over the world, paranormal investigations in Virginia City, questionable hotel hygiene, and whether Randy should (or shouldn’t) trust certain professions. The episode wraps with TikTok reactions, crowd interactions, and plenty of classic soundboard moments. As always: real talk, random tangents, and just the right amount of ridiculous.

    #5 “I Jumped… She Got Hit”

    On this episode of Ripped, Jerky, Melissa, Randy, and guest Jess keep the energy high with their signature blend of laughs, chaos, and real talk. The crew cracks open Smoke Wagon whiskey and dives into wild White Elephant Christmas gifts, questionable novelty items, and the now-legendary “Maxine.” They also unpack Melissa’s recent run-in with a car in a Reno parking lot, what happened, and how everyone handled the aftermath. Along the way, the conversation wanders through true crime, TV recs like Landman and From, emo night plans at Cargo, and a hilarious round of “TikTok to Me.” Equal parts messy, honest, and hilarious — grab a drink and hang with the Ripped crew.

    #4 Conspiracies, Cramps and Christmas Cheer

    It’s a very Ripped Christmas: lactose, line dances, and lingering conspiracies. 🎄 In this episode, Jerky, Melissa, Randy, and Sara welcome special guest Addie from Pure Country for a chaotic holiday hangout featuring boozy eggnog taste-testing (despite almost everyone being lactose intolerant), hibiscus tea shout-outs, and plans to hijack Emo Night as a squad. From “what decade would you go back to?” and the butterfly effect, to moon landing doubts, flat earth debates, Amelia Earhart’s mysterious end, Hawaiian night marchers, Elvis-as-a-preacher theories, and why sharks and the deep ocean are absolutely not to be trusted, nothing is off-limits. Plus: DJ booth horror stories, line dance nicknames, Waymo driving into floods, and another unhinged round of “TikTok To Me” that somehow involves glory hole coffee and plate toasts. Hit play, grab a drink (maybe not eggnog), and dive into the festive chaos.

    #3 Whiskey, Tea, and Taxidermy

    In this episode of RIPPED, Jerky and Melissa and Randy, are joined by the newly official co-host Sara, and special guest Taylor for a night of pure chaos and laughs. The crew kicks things off with a Tincup whiskey and mint-lavender tea tasting, then dives into the origin of Jerky’s nickname, Halloween costumes at Pure Country, Napa adventures, and a very suspicious “voice actor” they met in a hotel hot tub. Sara shows off her pole-dancing taxidermy rat, Randy’s love life goes under the microscope, and the gang riffs on dating apps, deodorant, skinny-dipping, and TikTok rabbit holes—all while shouting out veterans and talking life behind the DJ booth. Grab a drink, kick back, and get ready to stay RIPPED.
