Agenda Fluid

In this delightfully unhinged episode of Agenda Fluid, Donovan and Ben dive headfirst into the deep end of life, religion, and random IT chaos. Donovan officially becomes “Reverend Grady Donovan Adkisson,” proving that anyone with Wi-Fi and ten spare minutes can now officiate weddings and probably a barbecue. The duo then deconstructs the Bible — […]

In this episode of Agenda Fluid, Donovan and Ben dive headfirst into the messy playground of free speech, hate speech, and harmful speech — and somehow manage to come out only slightly bruised. Along the way, they argue about whether buying a $14,000 Wolf stove counts as free expression, why folding iPhones are basically just […]

In this episode, Donovan and Ben return after a month-long break that nobody was really waiting on—but hey, they showed up anyway. What starts as a casual catch-up quickly spirals into tales of Pit Stop barbecue blasphemy (a barbecue joint with no bacon? heresy!), a Cracker Barrel logo conspiracy, and the tragic saga of kombucha […]

This week on Agenda Fluid, Ben and Donovan invite their friend Samuel Lewis—a self-described “Christian without a gang”—to dive headfirst into the deep end of one of life’s big questions: Is organized religion still necessary in a world run by science, facts, and Wi-Fi?What starts as a philosophical discussion quickly spirals into a passionate, punchy, and surprisingly funny exploration of faith, spirituality, organized religion, and why the phrase “thoughts and prayers” makes everyone’s eye twitch. Sam brings the perspective of someone who actually read the Bible (and not just cherry-picked memes about it), while Ben and Donovan represent Team Atheist, armed with skepticism and sarcasm in equal measure.Expect a lot of back-and-forth, some surprising points of agreement, a few side quests into tattoos, Paul ruining everything, preacher trauma, and Gordon Ramsay being nicer than most churchgoers. Oh, and a genuine effort to understand each other rather than just yell on Twitter.Did they answer the big question? No. Did they try really hard before running out of time? Also no. But they did agree that a part two is inevitable. Because when your agenda is fluid, sometimes the answers just have to wait.

In this free-flowing episode of Agenda Fluid, Ben and Donovan sit down for another off-the-cuff conversation about the ever-elusive balance between work and life. They reflect on their mutual friend Samuel’s missing voice, the pros and cons of working from home, and why getting an office might just save their sanity.Then it gets a little existential. Thanks to a deck of conversation prompts, the guys dive into how they’d (not) plan their funerals if given an unlimited budget—spoiler: it involves skydiving, Vegas, and zero music. From there, it’s a winding journey through compulsory public service, trade school vs. college, what they find attractive in people (intelligence, confidence, and humor make the cut), and the unexpected weight of privilege.Oh, and did we mention the dream of bringing Sonic Drive-In back to Tifton?It’s real talk, with a side of wit and wisdom—because the agenda is, as always, fluid. Topics touched:

• Remote work realities vs. office life
• Funeral wishes and memorial misadventures
• Military honors, earned trust, and life lessons
• College, trade school, and the myth of the one-size-fits-all path
• Attractions, privileges, and what gets left unsaid
• Why there’s still a hole in the world where Tifton’s Sonic used to be

In this soul-searching episode of Agenda Fluid, Ben and Donovan dive headfirst into the nebulous and often elusive concept of purpose. What starts as a conversation about finding daily motivation quickly spirals into memories of childhood, frustrations of adulthood, philosophical meanderings, and the existential weight of modern life. They unpack how purpose shifts over time—from the joy of Saturday morning cartoons to the exhaustion of chasing invoices and resetting printers.Through stories of near-death experiences, working on home repairs, and psychedelic reflections, the hosts explore whether purpose is something grand and overarching or simply found in the everyday moments that feel real and fulfilling. Along the way, they wrestle with guilt, gratitude, burnout, and the strange comfort of shared disillusionment. There’s humor, vulnerability, and maybe even a little bit of healing.It’s an honest, unfiltered conversation about what it means to do something that matters—even if it’s just mowing the lawn or watching monster movies with your kid. No conclusions. No life hacks. Just real talk about what keeps us getting out of bed.

Welcome back to another therapy session disguised as a podcast. Ben and Donovan dive into the great mysteries of life—like why our bladders have turned against us, how motivation is a myth unless it involves tinkering with websites or dodging malware, and whether anything we do actually matters in the long arc of the universe […]
