We swore we’d never start a podcast… so naturally, we did. Off Scott-Free is a weekly conversation between Atlas and Olivia Scott about marriage, faith, creativity, and the everyday moments worth remembering. Think of it as a video diary, not a platform: honest, reflective, and made to last.

    We're back! After a month off (and one episode that didn't make it), Atlas and Olivia catch up on everything that's happened since we last talked.We cover our first failed attempt at "sharking" Tame Impala tickets, filming another Beautiful Ashes retreat (and the time we left a drone behind), last-minute Empire of the Sun tickets and our honest review of the show. That includes the sound mix and the AI visuals. We also talk about a Taco Bell moment exactly two years in the making, shooting the album cover for Zenith with a generator in a public park, and why we decided to scrap the movie.Plus a Rangers game, a lake weekend in Hot Springs, Arkansas, Endgame Encore and Primetime reviews, some real talk about marriage, the Yochi frozen yogurt line, a groomsman ask, trying out a new church, and what's coming up next.CHAPTERS0:00 Welcome Back & Why We Took a Break1:36 So Much Has Happened2:14 Wrapping Up Atlas's Job (Still Under NDA)7:05 Our First Failed Concert "Sharking" (Tame Impala)11:31 Harry Styles & Other Shows We're Eyeing13:48 Filming the Beautiful Ashes Retreat17:20 The Time We Forgot the Drone19:40 Last-Minute Empire of the Sun Tickets23:10 Empire of the Sun Concert Review24:36 Way Too Loud: The Sound Mix33:58 The AI Visuals Problem36:19 Taco Bell, Exactly Two Years Later39:00 Shooting the Zenith Album Cover44:33 Why We Scrapped the Movie45:44 Zenith Is Almost Here47:06 Rangers Game48:46 Lake Hamilton & Hot Springs, Arkansas52:10 Endgame Encore & Primetime Reviews55:06 Real Talk: Marriage Isn't Always Perfect56:30 Family Dinner & a Packed Saturday58:50 The Yochi Frozen Yogurt Saga61:29 Groomsman Again & Emily's Matcha Party63:53 Trying Out a New Church65:09 Ramen, Costco & a Lazy Sunday66:14 What's Coming Up67:12 Outro

    Episode 30 - Ships Passing in the Night

    Atlas has been living a double life (that he legally can’t tell you much about), and we’ve had a surprisingly eventful couple of weeks. This week, we revisit our childhoods with Harry Potter and Cars back in theaters, Atlas discovers the wonders of QuikTrip, tries his first taquito AND pumpkin spice latte, and causes a minor family scandal when he realizes he likes my mom’s pumpkin bread more than his own mom’s recipe. We also try HelloFresh (please sponsor us), I cut Atlas’ hair for the first time, and Atlas finally shares what he can about working as a production assistant on a reality TV show. We talk about how our completely opposite schedules have affected our relationship lately, give an update on Zenith, and share what we have coming up over the next few weeks. Plus, we go on a very meta tangent about how this podcast gets made and wrap things up by showing off our ever-growing Twenty One Pilots vinyl collection. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 1:07 - Atlas Is Under NDA  5:33 - Hogwarts to Radiator Springs  16:45 - Atlas Gets QuikTripped  21:00 - A Man of Many Firsts: Taquitos and PSLs 30:45 - A Betrayal in Pumpkin Bread  35:20 - HelloFresh, Please Sponsor Us  38:00 - Marriage Is Trusting Your Wife With Clippers  48:48 - What Atlas Is Legally Allowed to Say About His Secret Job 1:03:35 - Our Schedules Are Beefing 1:08:28 - Zenith Check-In  1:13:32 - The Scott Forecast  1:21:37 - How the Sausage Gets Made  1:24:23 - Yes, We Have That Pressing  1:28:41 - Outro

    Episode 29 - Everything Must Go (Including Our Sanity)

    This week was a little bit of everything: superhero movies, mini golf, waterparks, hotel disasters, storage unit purgatory, and some unexpectedly deep conversations along the way. We kick things off with our thoughts on Spider-Man: Brand New Day and whether Marvel might finally be finding its footing again, then recap a double date with old friends and the Twenty One Pilots watch party that very quickly became a party of two. Back at home, we finally tackled the last of our storage unit and spent several late nights figuring out why we own so much stuff and where the hell we’re supposed to put it all. Things get a little heavier as we talk about loving people who continually let you down, the boundaries we’ve learned to put in place to protect our marriage and our hearts, and the difficult reality that sometimes growing means growing away from people you still deeply care about. We also have a pretty big life update for Atlas: he got offered a job! Now he is just figuring out whether he’s actually supposed to take it. Then we’re off to Schlitterbahn, where exhaustion tested our marriage before we even made it to the waterpark, the entire state of Texas apparently decided to show up on the same day, and we discovered we may officially be lazy-river people. Our Austin plans proceeded to completely fall apart when the AC went out at our hotel, turning our nice dinner into late-night tacos, queso on Sixth Street, and Transformers in bed, which, honestly, may have been better anyway. Finally, we somehow make it from Voodoo Doughnuts and P. Terry’s in Austin to a 1:00 showing of La La Land in Frisco before ending the weekend exactly how everyone dreams of: meeting strangers from Facebook Marketplace and making a financial plan. A little chaotic, a little sentimental, and somehow very productive. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 1:12 - Brand New Day and Post-Endgame Trust Issues  13:29 - Mini Golf, Major Commitment  17:07 - Watch Party Minus the Party  19:12 - Keep, Sell, Donate, Cry  26:14 - Loving Someone From a Distance  44:35 - Reason, Season, or Lifetime  56:21 - From Passenger Princess to Professional Driver  59:23 - Our Marriage Survived Schlitterbahn  1:22:47 - Our Nice Dinner Became Transformers and Tacos  1:42:35 - A Surprisingly Productive Sunday  1:51:13 - Outro

    Episode 28 - A Series of Unfortunate Apartments

    We thought we were moving into a new apartment. Turns out, we were signing up for a multi-part saga. This week, we’re telling the full story of our move. From escaping our old apartment, to realizing our new apartment was somehow even worse, to driving an absolutely enormous Ford F-250, to moving AGAIN into an upgraded unit we didn’t even know existed. Throw in The Odyssey in 70mm, Six Flags, a very long email to management, broken appliances, a one-year proposal anniversary, and an unreasonable number of Twenty One Pilots coincidences, and you’ve got one hell of a month. It was stressful, ridiculous, exhausting, and occasionally hilarious, but somewhere in all of it, we were reminded that home isn’t necessarily a place. Sometimes it’s just having the right person beside you while everything else is falling apart. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 3:20 -  Surely It Couldn’t Get Worse… Right? 16:19 - Plot Twist: It’s Worse  31:07 - Fear the Ford F-250 XL 38:02 - A Little Cinematic Intermission  58:18 - To Whom It May Concern, Wtf 1:01:05 - New Apartment: The Sequel  1:14:25 - Another Day, Another Maintenance Request  1:22:47 - Oh Right, We Have Guests Tomorrow  1:29:40 - Everything Leads Back to Twenty One Pilots  1:35:49 - This Is Why I Chose You  1:45:27 - Outro

    Episode 27 [Elijah] - Pass Me the Aux

    For our first episode with a guest, we’re joined by our friend Elijah, someone who started as Olivia’s friend and somehow became one of the most important people in both of our lives.We talk about how Olivia and Elijah met, how he eventually became friends with Atlas, and how that friendship has grown over the years. From there, we get very into music.As two producers, Atlas and Elijah bring a whole different perspective to the conversation as we dive into their own projects, Annex B and FORE, why they’re more drawn to the sound and feeling of a song than its lyrics, the things that immediately make us want to hit skip, whether old-school mixing techniques still hold up, and how we actually discover music today.And, of course, we end by talking about what Elijah hopes to do with his project, FORE, and where he wants to take his music next.Come for the friendship lore. Stay for the unsolicited music opinions.

    Episode 26 - Beaches, Books, and Big Decisions

    This week we're recapping our family vacation to Florida with Liv’s side of the family. We talk about the infamous "adult car" vs. "kid car" debate, our surprisingly amazing Airbnb in Watersound, beach days spent avoiding sunburns, and late-night NERTS tournaments in the carriage house. We also share our spontaneous food adventures (including Texas Roadhouse and a surprisingly incredible Mexican restaurant), a bike ride back to Rosemary Beach, our final beach day, and the long drive home. Plus, Liv gushes about one of the best books she’s ever read, Theo of Golden, and we discuss our early passholder preview ride on Six Flags' newest coaster, Tormenta. To wrap things up, we get into our thoughts on the new Supergirl movie, superhero fatigue, and Atlas opens up about finally finding clarity on his creative future and the path he wants to pursue. It's an episode full of sunshine, family memories, roller coasters, books, and big life conversations.

    Episode 25 - Salt Air & Sentimental Affairs

    This week we're catching up on a little bit of everything. We recap our relaxing trip to Rosemary Beach with Atlas' family, share our less-than-glowing thoughts on Disclosure Day, and explain why we've actually been enjoying Euphoria Season 3 despite all the criticism. We also dive into Liv's latest obsession: building a personal library filled with books she'll love for years to come. Then, we talk about our trip to Arkansas to film interviews with Atlas' grandparents, Meme and Mickey, for a documentary celebrating their lives and preserving their stories for future generations. To wrap things up, we share some love for our dear friends Brooks and McKenna after spending time with them in Little Rock and reflect on how grateful we are for friendships that always feel like home.

    Episode 24 - The Breaking Bad Episode (From Chemistry to Chicanery)

    We finally made it to Albuquerque. In this episode, we're breaking down the entire Breaking Bad universe. From our first impressions to what makes the franchise one of the greatest in television history. We dive deep into Walter White, Jesse Pinkman, Hank Schrader, the unforgettable villains, and the moments that left us speechless before shifting gears to Better Call Saul to answer the question: did this prequel really need to exist, or did it somehow surpass the original? We also unpack Jimmy McGill, Kim Wexler, Chuck, the incredible new characters introduced in Better Call Saul, and settle the debate everyone has: Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul? To wrap things up, we discuss whether El Camino was a worthy epilogue, share our hottest takes from across the franchise, and finish with a rapid-fire round of questions. If you've watched any part of the Breaking Bad universe, there's probably something in here you'll disagree with and that's half the fun. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 8:05 - Before We Broke Bad  11:05 - What Makes Breaking Bad Different?  19:09 - Say His Name  25:30 - Magnets, Bitch!  30:00 - Minerals, Marie.  34:13 - Cartel Chaos  36:54 - Ozymandias and Everything Else  40:13 - The Case for Saul  42:24 - It's All Good, Man 51:07 - Wexler Wins  55:32 -The Man Who Couldn't Touch Electricity  1:03:46 - Expanding the Universe1:05:30- Legal Masterpieces1:11:41 - Face Off: Breaking Bad Vs.
