    The Biggest Snow Storm in 20 Years!! 40-80 Inches From Texas to Pennsylvania!! Stay Warm | Ep.220

    I start the episode riding high off a homemade sandwich and the confidence only Martin’s BBQ chips can give a man. From there, I immediately make a series of adult financial decisions I should not be allowed to make. I lock down a signed Jake Paul Pop Century card, talk myself into wearing it as a necklace, and openly admit I need my phone taken away before Facebook Marketplace and TikTok live sales ruin my life. This is what happens when you give someone adult money and internet access.Then we get into the storm. The storm of the century. The storm with a PR team. Winter Storm Fern. According to the internet, Pennsylvania is getting anywhere from one inch to ninety eight inches of snow, trees are exploding in Canada, and grocery stores are out of everything except Dasani. I break down the panic, the fake urgency, and the group hysteria while delivering the only six winter survival tips you will ever need. These tips are foolproof, medically questionable, and absolutely not approved by anyone with credentials.From there, we spiral into Soulja Boy’s fashion empire, influencer politicians, and the idea of Farrah Abraham becoming the mayor of Texas. I question who is buying Soulja Boy shoes with his face on them, wonder how much money it would take to ruin my public reputation with a full outfit, and seriously consider a future where podcasts replace government. None of this feels fake anymore and that part is concerning.I wrap things up with a rapid fire run through Mission Impossible logic, why the mission is always possible, why the bad guy is usually HR, and why face masks solve every problem. I also shout out the return of Recap and Record with Los, where we are breaking down HBO’s The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms every week. New episodes. New chaos. Same energy.Hit play. Hit subscribe. Post your snow pictures.Episode 220 is live.

    Student Loans MUST Be Paid + Cops Arrest Man with 100+ Skeletons in His Basement & Trisha Paytas for Congress, VOTE! What are We Doing Podcast Episode 219

    Season 6 is here. New year, new me, new pod. Let me be clear. Nothing changed. Same chaos. Same button. Same “what are we doing?” energy. Appreciate the 2,249-ish of you who keep showing up. If you haven’t yet, hit subscribe, hit like, and ring the bell so you get the quack ding whenever I drop an episode, clip, short, or whatever we’re calling content in 2026.We kick off Episode 219 with the New Year’s trip recap. Megs and I dipped out to Myrtle Beach for the reset. Quick flight. Good food. All you can eat crab legs. Then I get into my favorite Myrtle Beach activity, Dirty Don’s oyster shooter flights. Old Bay rim, oyster in hand, vodka in the glass, chew three times, no more, then send it. If you’re ever down there, go do it. Tell them Levi sent you. Let Dirty Don know Daddy brought you.Then we talk about Elon Musk’s Grok and the internet doing what the internet does. People are using Grok like a public “edit button” on other people’s photos. “Uncrop this.” “Remove this.” “Put her in this.” You get the idea. I tested it privately with Megs and with myself, for research, and the results were way too realistic. Which leads to the real conversation. AI has legit business value, I use it daily, but the moment it turns into public, weaponized creep behavior, the arguments against it start sounding strong.After that, we hit the student loan mess. Wage garnishment is back on the table, and millions of people are in default. I break down what this looks like in real life. People choose rent, groceries, and basic survival over sending hundreds of dollars a month to a loan from when their frontal lobe was still loading. I go on a full spiral about how the system pushes people into “pay it off if you’re the 1%” or “join the military” as the only way out, and how insane it is to treat lifelong debt like a normal rite of passage.Then we get into the Venezuela situation and the “we’re running your country now” energy. I talk through the oil angle, the absurd press conference quotes, the action movie vibes, and the fact that we’re living in a timeline where the mission gets described like a film trailer. I also connect it to the Fire Fest universe, because of course I do. If you thought we were done weaponizing bad ideas, welcome to 2026.I pivot into something practical for local business owners. Going live is the cheat code. I talk about real examples like Amici’s Pizza and Connor’s hot dog cart pulling insane local traction by streaming consistently. If you run a storefront business and you need people to walk in and hand you money, stop treating your phone like the enemy. Put it on a tripod, throw on a mic, go live during your hours, talk to the chat between customers, and build local momentum. Then I give my favorite pro tip. Block people you know. Your audience isn’t your high school class.We wrap with two more heavy hitters. Trisha Paytas saying she wants to run for Congress, and me realizing that if that’s the bar, I might have a shot too. Then we close on the Pennsylvania grave robbery story that had everyone texting me. A guy allegedly stole over 100 sets of human remains and had them in his basement and storage unit. Skulls, bones, torsos, the whole nightmare. I break down the details, the local connections, the alleged selling angle, and how posting evidence on social media is the dumbest crime strategy imaginable.Season 6 is underway. It’s already unhinged. More episodes, more podcasts, more studio builds, more chaos.Watch the episode. Then go to wawdpod.com to catch the latest uploads and the newest Season 6 drops.

    Logan Paul & Liquid Market Place = Crypto Scam + Nicki Minaj & TPUSA | What Are We Doing Podcast 218

    Episode 218 finds me recording the podcast home alone the day after Christmas because Megs is stuck on Long Island thanks to an ice storm, which leaves me, my dog, four vodka shots, and a microphone to unpack everything wrong with adulthood, holidays, politics, the internet, and money. I talk about why I am officially done opening gifts forever, why grown adults do not need Funko Pops or graphic tees, and why the only acceptable Christmas loopholes involve cash or household gifts Megs opens for both of us. I explain how family gatherings improve dramatically when you time edibles correctly, how the stress drops, the noise fades, and life feels manageable again. From there I break down Nicki Minaj taking a massive paycheck to headline Turning Point USA, flipping on years of public positions, praising politicians her audience opposes, ignoring the fact she cannot vote, and why the entire event felt calculated, uncomfortable, and hollow. I react to Joe Budden’s response, the internet fallout, and why this move damaged trust across culture and fandom. I then roast the AI Christmas photo trend, the sparkly romper epidemic, bad prompts, lazy re-renders, and why most people do not resemble their AI alter ego despite pretending otherwise. I shut down the viral environmental panic posts about AI destroying the planet, explain why the water usage claims are misleading, and point out industries quietly doing far more damage while everyone yells at computers. I close by breaking down Logan Paul’s Liquid Marketplace mess, the fractional ownership of the PSA 10 Pikachu Illustrator card, how money flowed in, payouts never landed, accountability disappeared, and why this situation looks like CryptoZoo with better branding and the same outcome. This episode is a full post-Christmas spiral covering family, money, internet delusion, celebrity hypocrisy, and why none of this should surprise anyone anymore.**********Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

    7 Sheetz Shirts + Melania Gets a Movie, Netflix Wants Your Podcast & Trump's Drug Reclassification

    UNDER THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS - OUT NOW: https://wawdpod.com/lights-spotifyhttps://wawdpod.com/lights-apple-----Episode 217 is here. I start this one the only responsible way. By unboxing a Sheetz package and trying on six or seven different Sheetz shirts like I am getting paid in MTO coupons. I asked for “one of each,” and Sheetz said, “Bet. Hold my street taco.” So now I own enough shirts to dress an entire grand opening line in Camp Hill.We also need to talk about the Camp Hill Sheetz grand opening chaos. Fifty to a hundred people outside. Cars wrapped around the block. Ribbon cut. Holiday vibes. My next ask is simple. Put me on the schedule as the DJ for these openings. One day. One location. I bring the energy. I bring the bits. I wear an unreasonable amount of Sheetz merch and act like a functioning adult.Then we hit the news spiral. TGI Fridays went viral because a server walked a toddler around the restaurant, and corporate rewarded her with a $500 check after flying people out to do a filmed presentation. So of course the internet did the real bonus and a GoFundMe started cooking. After that, I pitch the only gift idea men want. A Godzilla costume and a cardboard city to destroy. Also, if you want the ultimate holiday hack, give your boss a Christmas card. You want to keep your job, go write “thanks for paying me” on a $3 card and live another day.We finish strong with media and politics chaos. Netflix is still trying to collect podcasts like Infinity Stones. Melania has a movie trailer and a production company, because why not. Trump announces big moves, including marijuana rescheduling talk, and then drops the Patriot Games, aka Hunger Games: Home Edition. It’s a lot. So yes, I close the episode the same way I opened it. Confused. Laughing. Wearing a Sheetz shirt.Also, stream my Christmas song “Under the Christmas Lights” right now. Put it on repeat. You know what to do.**********Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

    Joe Rogan WILL Become A.I Jesus + The White House Takes Aim at Sabrina Carpenter | What are We Doing

    This week on the What Are We Doing podcast, I hit record after missing a week and walk straight into chaos. Holidays, weddings, jet setting, whatever. We made it. Episode 215 is here whether the world is ready or not. I start the show by giving thanks to the only man who deserves it, Joe Exotic, and hoping he gets that presidential pardon he keeps talking about. After that, the madness ramps up fast.Soulja Boy is back with another tech empire that exists only in his mind. He is now saying someone offered him one hundred million for a handheld emulator that screams AliExpress from a mile away. He also says it has sixty four gigs of RAM. It does not. I break it all down and explain why Soulja Boy, if you are reading this, call me. We would print money together.Then we look at the White House’s new marketing strategy where they steal Sabrina Carpenter songs to soundtrack ICE raid videos. Sabrina responds. The White House responds. Everyone loses. I offer the White House an easy solution. Use this podcast instead. Leave the pop stars alone. What are we doing.Next up, Epstein news. More photos. More videos. More questions. His island looks worse than my resort in Cabo. There is a dental chair. I pitch the idea of installing a dentistry at my actual resort. It makes more sense than whatever Epstein was doing.Kate Beckinsale shows up on Jimmy Kimmel with a story about her daughter’s boyfriend laying eggs. Jimmy eats it up. I try to figure out if this is proof Hollywood has fully melted or if Kate got bamboozled by the easiest prank in world history.We talk about raccoons breaking into liquor stores, getting blackout drunk, and passing out in the bathroom. I also explain that humans are accidentally domesticating raccoons because we keep telling them they are cute. At this rate, my wife is going to smuggle one home from Mexico.Then Miley Cyrus gets engaged to a drummer named Max. I salute her. I also salute her best era, the 23 era. Say what you want. That look was elite.Joe Rogan enters the chat. He is sponsored by Perplexity now. He cannot go a single conversation without Jamie or AI saving him from Facebook misinformation. He also says Jesus might return as AI. So I use ChatGPT to generate a whole sermon and explain why pastors might want to polish their resumes.Finally, we hit the gambling problem taking over America. Kaushi.com lets you bet on anything. You can bet on the second coming of Jesus. You can bet on weather. You can bet on elections. CNN is now partnered with them. This is where we are. We are turning news into a casino and calling it progress.This episode is packed. Soulja Boy tech. Sabrina Carpenter vs the White House. Epstein’s low budget island. Celebrities laying eggs. Drunk raccoons. Joe Rogan predicting robot Jesus. CNN turning into DraftKings. It is all here.Hit subscribe. Hit like. Hit the hype button if you find it. New Tone Tailors podcast is live. Lessons with Bridget are open now. Give your kid a guitar instead of screen time. Peace out. See you next week.
