Just a quick update on why there hasn't been any new shows on the feed lately. Basically we've taken all the Today I Learned Nothing energy and moved it to a new show call Then You Ruined It. Check it out over at https://anchor.fm/jason-sigler. I've also included a little sneak peek of what we get up to over there just in case you think we've changed. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Our children don't understand that our favorite Twitch streamers were our friends that had the other gaming systems in our hometowns. Also, did Jason accidentally have a dom/sub situation set up with his best friend? Finally, screening your kid's favorite streamer for offensive content is a new level of hell they just added.

This has been a garbage fire of a year for a multitude of reasons, but we had a bit of fun talking about everything from Kramer/David Letterman/penis comparisons, coveting thy neighbor's sweet tech, culturally-insensitive Idahoan sumo clubs, and Steve's innate macho ax-throwing skills that no one cares about, to synchronized impersonations of subjugated, prehistoric animal species and talking to our pees pees about the birds and the bees. Join us for a laugh or two and wait for what has to be a better year later this week. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Hearing the smacking of lips while someone is chewing will send Jason into such a rage that he could punch a child. He's not going to, but you understand that it describes the level of his anger, right? That makes sense? Also, Steve's kids aim each other like guns to unload a clip of flatulence   onto him and we fear you might be next. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Jason swears everyone has peed their pants at one point or another (outside of childhood, of course, where we were all just constant streams and sprays of urine). Steve purports to deny that claim, though his own evidence contradicts this position. Also, did you ever call them boosties? Didn't think so. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
The pandemic has us all making the best of a bad situation, including our kids. Steve's son has figured this pandemic schooling thing out, and lollipops are included. Jason's daughter, meanwhile, has too much integrity to make the grift worth it. Jason's just happy not to have to deal with his co-workers "wanting things." The rest of the episode is literally ya-yas and wee-wees. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Have you ever sumo wrestled your friend for shotgun while riding to McDonald's with the gang? Steve did, and he files his report of this shrinking, little-known high school pastime. Also, Jason was, unsurprisingly, the waterboy for the football team, and witnessed first-hand just how that group solves conflicts within itself. Finally, the guys do a barrel roll while trying to talk about tragic headlines from the past. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
The disrespect of Steve's friends for the environment cost him a pie and his family is terrible at estimating their grocery needs when is cycling to fulfill them. These are two separate thoughts that sum up how much stress he is currently under. Also, Jason feels like filled donuts betrayed him, not unlike a Gusher. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Some good wisdom from this episode: When trying to hook up your sister, don't mention how hot your mom is. When trying to break up a relationship so you can date someone ... don't. And when wrestling a girl, the heart of a true man will take the bump and earn the right to wear the crimson mask. We're just full of it in this episode. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
You have to ask yourself, what kind of monster do you want your kids playing in? Also, why are sophomores too good to go out the butt like everyone else? And Steve talks about his friend who missed out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity because of intestinal issues. Finally, we wrap things up on an unfortunately timed Alex Trebek joke. No harm meant, and RIP to one of the most amazing game show hosts and human beings this world has ever known. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
The guys agree that late night TV has changed a lot in the last decade, but it also hasn't really changed at all. Then, the talk strays to whether or not Jason pees in the shower and, honestly, it's just a big toilet bowl after that. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Let he who is without poop cast the first load. Steve is convinced that the loathsome white stuff that flies from a sky rat's butt is a sign of karma setting things right with a person. Jason asks was it karma or consequence? But really, they're both just full of it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
We bask in the glory of Steve's Pile of Shame, including some standout Zelda titles. Also, find out why you shouldn't ever watch someone beat a game you might want to play. Finally, bond over gaming with someone you love ... and don't be surprised when your relationship is ruined. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
When it comes to defending your home, Steve recommends a good old fashioned pair of nunchucks. Jason opts to scare them with a ghostly, pale sight instead. Also, just what does graphite do in a baseball bat? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Steve was excited to bond with his wife on their first date in months and she was dreading the thought. He was also super stoked about showing off his super questionable skills in axe throwing that his childhood neighbor, Davy Crockett, taught him. Finally, never forget, that his wife is always keeping score. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Jason got a small taste of the pastor's life and the elusive stardom of a YouTube star in the same go and he wants MORE. Steve's kids agree that he and his wife are weird about their social media dreams and want better representation. And both guys look back at their early beginnings on the "make other people listen to your voice" world of podcasting. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Steve tells of the greatest coin purse he ever owned, and why they make kangaroos cower in fear. Jason posits that frontier was so boring, people resorted to loving on the animals a bit too much. Together, the guys go on Amazon to check the price of kangaroo scrotum bags. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Steve is sad to see summer go, but he's sending it off with one of his favorite pastimes: CRABBIN'. Learn why a pot is not necessarily a cage, why sexing a crab does not involve butter, and why peeing on yourself (or others), while hilarious, does nothing to alleviate the pain of a jellyfish sting. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
It's Labor Day weekend, so it's a perfect time for a clip show! Steve is insistent about not visiting a back-alley porn room and he recalls the war between the bloods and the crips in the woods of Idaho, while Jason lashes out like a toddler because he has too much stuff and reminds Steve that he's actually quite dyslexic. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
Relationships with mothers-in-law can be tricky, but especially when they inexplicably cry about corn, as Steve found out. And while Steve has grown and matured since getting married and having kids, Jason appears to be regressing and will soon by a fetus once again.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/today-i-learned-nothing/support
