Life is Funny

This week, the guys start off by talking about pickleball, a pastime taken up by both Josh and Evan, along with the rest of the world. Josh might be so into pickleball that he's considering becoming an official retailer, while Evan is pretty confident in his ability to hang with the best of them on the court. Along with their possible pickleball competition, the guys also get back into their idea to see who can turn $100 into the biggest profit through things like thrift finds and reselling.

This week, the guys talk a lot about buying things on eBay and Facebook Marketplace. The conversation stems some from purchases that Evan has been making, but Josh is joining in on the fun, too! What is it like to lose out on a bidding war at the last second? Is Mercari taking too much of your money? Will the guys ever sell anything on these platforms?

This week, the guys talk about how Josh has been stepping it up lately. His goal has been to hit 10,000 steps a day, and so far, he's stuck to it for almost a month! Is it reasonable to have something like that in your life, or are there better things to do with your time? The guys share their thoughts on the concept and what other doors it might open down the road. For example, it's led to thoughts of Josh's future legacy, so do the guys have plans to become famous?

This week, the guys discuss their history with surprise parties.

This week, the guys are back in their usual places! Evan made it back from the land down under, Florida, and he has some fun things to recap. He spent some time bounding along the beach finding dead stuff before checking out other nature places for live things. His travels back included a nifty, never-before-seen travel move, for Evan, at least, but despite getting back early, Florida got one last lick in by poisoning him.

This week, the guys have lived two very different lives since last recording. One of them has had a crazy work schedule while being stuck alone with no heat, while the other one has been galavanting it up, hanging with homies, and drinking alcohol. Care to guess which one is which? Josh gives some bourbon breakdown before the boys get extra bougie by bringing up bergamot. Or is it bergamote?

This week, the guys are once again joined by a jingly, chaotic, and distracting guest who's ultimately just a big wiener.

Is there a general sense that people want to get others to be like them, or does it depend on the situation? While talking about work, the guys touch on the topic of preferred work/life schedules since Evan is headed into a busy spring before another summer off.

This week, Evan is coming in hot and sad at the same time after Amazon has been screwing him over.

This week, the guys ring in the new year by talking about the holiday season. After missing a week of recording between Christmas and New Year's, they have quite a bit to discuss. Both Josh and Evan are fortunate to have multiple places to visit during the holidays, but that makes for a busy time that could probably be a little more streamlined and/or relaxing. Would Christmas be better without any places to go or people to see? Maybe the guys should give it a test run on a lesser holiday and find out.

This week, the guys have a ton to talk about after an extended gap between recordings. Evan had a jam-packed week+, and he's been excited to share the happs with Josh and you all! Spotify and others released the yearly 'Wrapped'/recap, and while Evan is a "baddie" who sails on a Young Gravy boat, LIF listeners are a special group that gets stats of their own.
