Eric and Nick are back in full swing, shaking off the podcasting rust and diving into a hilariously meandering conversation. From weather complaints and wilted hydrangeas to pondering the mysterious lack of new cemeteries, this episode is packed with unexpected turns.

The duo reflects on how their younger selves would react to their current lives, revealing surprising personal insights—like Nick's gardening obsession and Eric's unexpected tech career. They even pitch a bold new business idea: space burials—because why rest in peace when you can rocket into the stars?

Plus, in a fan-favorite segment, The Secret Question, the hosts ask each other surprise prompts that lead to unexpected revelations (and some crunchy snack confessions). Triscuits and popcorn fans, you're seen.
