It's the holiday season, and Joe's got some thoughts on flag planting at rivalry games and Johnathan ponders what truly makes a Christmas movie.
Listener, we missed last week. And now this week, Jmac has a cold, Joe's got some travel and we're doing this chaotic exercise via Zoom. It could have been worse, but we did manage to talk about Red Lobster, Marlon Brando and the insanity that is the 12-team college football playoff.
Have you ever seen the 1980s movie "Space Camp" and, y'all, more than that, have you ever wondered how realistic it is? Because it's really not, yet that doesn't deter Joe and Jmac from spending way too much time talking about it, as well as other fanciful space-based films. And football. Some football too.
It's Halloween, y'all, which makes it all the more reason for Joe and Jmac to dive into the 10-year anniversary of the truly weird, truly spectacular Adult Swim short "Too Many Cooks" in this week's episode. Also, there's a little football game on Saturday in Jacksonville, Fl, and neither of them feel confident.
Listener, let's talk about music played by bands you've never heard of from porches, Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas opening weekend and the ABC TGIF lineup ... because, you know, that's what we do.
Joe has definitive opinions on when Christmas season should start. Related, Johnathan is excited for Hallmark's Countdown To Christmas starting on Friday, and Lauren warrants a producer credit finally.
Joe celebrated a birthday recently, so let's talk about going to see Michael Bolton in concert, traveling to Biloxi to gamble and the importance of proper measuring cups when preparing a cake.
Do you want to talk about pear juice? Maybe professional wrestling in the 1980s? Or one of those Paul brothers fighting Mike Tyson? If so, the good news is this week's podcast finds Joe and Jmac exploring all of those topics ... oddly enough. Plus, Jmac comes to terms with Georgia's loss to Alabama.
Well, this one went a bit off the rails. We talked Richard Marx (who Joe kept confusing for Karl Marx for some reason), went a step further with a game involving rock ballads, wandered around a bit to talk about Ted's Montana Grill and then covered some college football.
Listener, do we have a treat for you. In our latest episode, Joe plays a new game where he develops game show concepts, laments the state of Florida football and evaluates the unhealthiest french fries ... all while Jmac is just kind of there.
Joe's given way too much thought to the lyrical meaning to Kid Rock's third - that's right listener, third - album, while Jmac seeks to hijack segment after segment. From Disney influencers to Sturgill Simpson, we might as well get into it.
Was watching Miami beat Florida better than going to IHOP for Joe? Maybe. Maybe not. It's really hard to say, though at least the flapjacks were all you can eat. Either way, Joe and Jmac break down the first week of college football, talk about coaching hot seats and discuss the Dunkin' fall seasonal menu.
It's Season Two ... and, at the same time, our 10th anniversary of podcasting. None of this matters. Joe and Jmac tackle Taco Bell's nostalgia menu, their podcasting history, recent vacations and, yeah, college football.
Johnathan is gearing up for a big trip out west, Joe doesn't get Hallmark Christmas Movies starting in October and they both believe their teams are destined to lose in The Game Formerly Known As The World's Largest Cocktail Party.
Yes, we missed a week, but Joe and Johnathan explain why and it has to do with Atlanta traffic, wound care and general busyness. But it's fine, so let's talk about the Arby's menu and some college football.
Joe struggles with punctuation, Johnathan shares his neutral opinion of the Ryder Cup and they both break down some of their favorite hip hop artists.
This is a celebrity-driven podcast. From Deion Sanders to Taylor Swift to regaling in our own celebrity crushes - did y'all know that Lisa Loeb is promoting AARP now - Joe and Johnathan explore the impact pop culture is having on sports today. And talk up McDonald's sauces too.
Team Trestle is freshly back from Disney World, so Joe and Johnathan break down their trip, including Joe's level of discomfort on various rides. Also, he's in a sporty mood coming off a Florida upset of Tennessee.
Not only did Joe and Johnathan go Off The Trestle, they went a bit off the rails here. From an Arby's pop-up in the Colorado Rockies to a discussion about Joe's cat being able to talk, they go in a variety of directions. Are any of them good? Who knows.
Listener, are you in for a treat. Joe and Johnathan talk about friendship, memorable emergency pitstops (if you will) and what in the world is wrong with Florida football.
