    We Build A Top 10 List Of Things Worth Reviving

    Watch The Video Version Here. We tried to make a simple nostalgia list and somehow ended up diagnosing modern life. We’re a family comedy podcast, so yes, we argue and roast each other, but the question is real: what did we lose while we gained convenience? Our Top 10 “things we’d bring back” starts with the obvious heavy hitter, common courtesy, and turns into a full-on debate about what public life feels like when everyone is distracted, impatient, and stuck in their own bubble. From there, we get into the bigger cultural stuff: marriage, commitment, and why long-term partnerships don’t seem to earn the same respect they used to. We also talk about having kids and the way society frames family life as an inconvenience instead of something worth building around. If you’re searching for honest conversations about modern culture, family values, and why people feel more disconnected, you’ll hear plenty to agree with and plenty to argue about. Then we go full nostalgia with purpose: real music with actual musicianship, story-driven horror like the Vincent Price era, and the kind of 2000s comedy movies that weren’t terrified of being funny. We miss malls that were real hangouts, Blockbuster nights that felt like an event, and even simpler phones that didn’t drag the entire internet into every moment. Plus: Pizza Rev, Taco Bell’s chicken crust taco, and other specific throwbacks that will either make you hungry or start a fight. Listen, share it with someone who misses the same things, and leave us a review if you want more episodes like this. What’s the one thing you’d bring back first?

    A Family Picks Their Top Ten Comfort Shows

    Watch The Video Version Here. You know that moment when your day is cooked, your brain won’t settle, and you need something safe on the TV just to breathe again? That’s the energy we’re chasing as we build our family Top 10 comfort shows list, the stuff we can rewatch a thousand times, quote in our sleep, and throw on as background noise when life feels too loud. Comfort TV is not the same as “best TV,” and we make that line very clear while we draft, rank, and roast each other’s picks. We each bring personal favorites to the table, then we negotiate a final list that includes heavy hitters like The Office, King of Queens, Modern Family, and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, plus animated comfort picks like Phineas and Ferb and Wallace and Gromit. Along the way, we debate what makes a show actually comforting: consistent seasons, familiar jokes, low-stress pacing, and whether you can genuinely fall asleep to it. We also admit the uncomfortable truth that a great show can be the wrong choice at night if it makes you anxious or pulls your full attention. After the rankings, we hit a bonus round with swaps, lock the final Top 10, then pivot to “what was good this week,” including Dragon Con stories, Rachel finishing The Bear, and a few wild media notes that feel very on-brand for us. If you’ve ever searched for comfort shows to watch, bedtime TV recommendations, or the best shows to rewatch, you’ll leave with a list, a framework, and plenty to argue about. Subscribe for more culture questions with comedy, share this with your comfort-show friend, and leave a review telling us your number one comfort show.

    We Build A Top 10 List Of Terrible Entertainment

    Watch The Video Version Here. Boredom hits, and suddenly you’re one scroll away from losing an hour or one “fun night out” away from spending money you didn’t plan to spend. We decide to stop pretending every popular pastime is automatically good and build a brutally honest Top 10 list of the worst forms of entertainment, using a hat draw to force the debate. The result is funny, a little unhinged, and way more relatable than we expected. We dig into doomscrolling and social media algorithms that are engineered for compulsion, including the infuriating reality of people scrolling while driving. Then we go after clout culture with pranks for views and the uncomfortable side of staged “kindness content,” where strangers become props and the camera becomes the point. We also talk reality TV and daytime TV as background misery that somehow keeps getting renewed. From there, we zoom out to expensive crowd-based entertainment: bars that attract bad decisions, outdoor music festivals that cost a fortune for sweat and long lines, and the cultural pressure to take little kids to Disney before it even makes sense. We even hit sports culture and sports betting, plus the creeping threat of AI music pushing out real artists. If you’ve ever wondered why certain “fun” leaves you tired, irritated, or numb, this one puts words to it. Listen, then share your own worst form of entertainment and tell us what you’d rank at number one. If you like the show, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review.

    A Family Builds A Top 10 Comfort Movie List

    Watch The Video Version Here. A comfort movie sounds simple until you try to rank it with your family. We chase the kind of movie that feels like a warm blanket, the one you throw on because you already know every line, and then we immediately derail into debates about what “comfort” even means. Is it the movie you’ve seen a hundred times, the one that makes you laugh no matter what mood you’re in, or the one you defend purely out of nostalgia? We turn the whole thing into a game by drawing titles from a hat and forcing ourselves to place each pick into a top 10 comfort movie list without knowing what’s coming next. That rule creates panic, bargaining, and truly questionable math as we argue over guilty pleasures, animated favorites, and whether a longer, emotional story can still count as a comfort watch. The list gets spicy fast: Over The Top sparks big feelings, Wreck It Ralph causes outrage, and the bonus round becomes a full-on negotiation. By the end, we lock in our final ranking: 10 Over The Top, 9 Wreck It Ralph, 8 Blast From The Past, 7 Chip ’n Dale Rescue Rangers, 6 Uncle Buck, 5 The Rocker, 4 Toy Story 3, 3 Step Brothers, 2 School Of Rock, 1 House Guest. Then we wrap with what was good this week and a sleep stream idea that should probably never exist. Listen now, share this with your movie-night group, and leave a review telling us your number one comfort movie and why. Fighting The Suck Since ©2026 Relatively Terrible

    Our Top Ten Non-Essential Essentials

    Watch The Video Version Here. Your “non-essentials” tell the truth about you. We put that to the test by building a shared top ten list of the non-essential things we refuse to live without and it immediately turns into negotiation, roasting, and a little bit of therapy disguised as comedy. From chapstick addiction to the comfort of mom’s cooking, we keep asking the same question: can you technically live without it, and do you actually want to? The list gets spicy fast. Coffee sparks a real dependency debate, grocery delivery becomes a time-saving hill worth dying on, and an adjustable bed somehow turns into a symbol of adulthood and back pain. Then we hit the truly controversial picks: TV to fall asleep to, dude wipes making a shockingly strong case for the top spots, and a Toy Story argument that splits the room. Through all of it, we keep circling back to one big takeaway: convenience, comfort, and identity matter, even when the item “shouldn’t” matter. After the ranking dust settles, we switch gears to what we’re watching and loving, including The Bear and the vibe of Lanterns, plus a quick chat about why Green Lantern still deserves a win. We also go off on End Of Oak Street, the cast, the wasted potential, and the few bright spots that almost save it. If you like family banter, pop culture takes, and a ranking episode you can argue with out loud, you’re in the right place. Subscribe for more, share this with a friend who has strong opinions, and leave a review with your own top three non-essential essentials. What would you fight to keep?

    We Rank Our Top Ten Fears And Roast Each Other

    Watch The Video Version Here. Bad drivers win our fear list so fast it’s honestly depressing. We sit down as a family and build a top ten fears ranking from scratch, which means we don’t just confess what scares us, we also interrogate whether those fears are rational, irrational, or just the result of one terrible childhood memory that never let go. The arguments get loud, the logic gets questionable, and the honesty hits harder than we expect.  We get weirdly specific (yes, socks on stairs makes the list for a minute), then go straight into the big stuff: drowning and the pure panic of losing your breath, claustrophobia and the nightmare of getting stuck, fear of heights that shows up in real life more often than you’d like, and the anxiety spiral that comes with getting sick and realizing how fragile the body can be. We also talk about back injuries as a fear because pain can erase your normal life overnight, and we get real about money stress and the fear of being poor when responsibility is on your shoulders.  After the bonus round locks in our final top ten fears, we change gears and try a few wild Target finds, including Buffalo Wild Wings flavored Pringles and Coors Light beer cheese Cheez-Its, with quick ratings and strong opinions. If you like family banter, comedy, and surprisingly thoughtful takes on everyday anxiety, hit play, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review. What fear would you put at number one?

    The Top 10 Worst Things About School From Lunch To Bullies

    Watch The Video Version Here. The fastest way to start an argument in our house is to say “school is the greatest invention of mankind,” because we can list a top 50 set of reasons it isn’t. So we turned it into a game: each of us wrote down our worst things about school, tossed them in a hat, and built a Top 10 list on the fly without knowing what was coming next. It gets chaotic, honest, and weirdly therapeutic. We go straight at the daily stuff that shapes student life more than any textbook: wasted time, troublemakers who derail the whole class, school lunch (including the occasional “this is kinda fire” exception), dress codes and uniforms that feel like a mood killer, and bullying that schools still struggle to stop. Then we hit the rules that make you ask who these systems are built for, including “Red Cup Green Cup,” a lunch policy where kids can’t talk for part of the period. Our #1 pick is the one that sets everyone off: bathroom access. We talk about why telling kids to wait isn’t discipline, why it’s not “real life,” and how basic needs should never be treated like a privilege. After we lock the list, we lighten things up with what was good this week: Spider-Man, X-Men ’97, a new burger spot, concerts, and the eternal debate over what counts as “new” music. If you’ve ever had a hall pass power trip story, a lunchroom rule that made no sense, or a school policy you still hate as an adult, hit play and then share your own. Subscribe, leave a review, and send this to the friend who always got told “you can wait.” What’s the worst thing about school in your experience? Fighting The Suck Since ©2026 Relatively Terrible

    Marvel Top 10 & Spider-Man: Brand New Day Review

    Watch The Video Version Here. We decided to celebrate Spider-Man Brand New Day the only way our family knows how: by starting a fight with a blind-draft Top 10 Marvel movies ranking. We throw all our personal MCU favorites into a hat, pull them at random, and have to place each movie on a shared list with no clue what’s coming next. That means big swings, instant regret, and the kind of arguments only people who’ve rewatched these films way too many times can have. From Avengers Endgame’s “is it great or just the last hour?” debate to why Guardians of the Galaxy still feels like lightning in a bottle, we land on a final top ten that includes Infinity War, Avengers 2012, Captain America Civil War, Thor Ragnarok, Black Panther, and more. The bonus round gets brutal because once a movie moves, it’s locked, and the reactions are exactly as dramatic as that rule sounds. Then we shift into a spoiler-free Spider-Man Brand New Day review. We talk street-level Spider-Man energy, how Punisher plays off Peter Parker, the excitement of finally getting classic Hulk again, and the choices that work visually even when we disagree on villains, casting, or runtime. We wrap by rating the movie on our Relatively Terrible scale and comparing scores across the family. Subscribe to Relatively Terrible, share this with your favorite Marvel arguer, and leave a review with your own Top 10 MCU list and your Brand New Day rating.
