Best Frenemies

Johnny expects credit for everything. Remember that time you enjoyed a Shirley Temple? According to Johnny, it was his favorite drink a decade ago, so he believes he deserves credit for your newfound appreciation. And let's not forget that if you mention your love for Star Wars, Johnny will eagerly take credit for that, too, citing his proclamation of it being his favorite movie thirty years ago. On the other hand, if you had a terrible dining experience at a restaurant, it's Christopher's fault.

In this episode, the boys give their Top 5 things they should do rather than be Laker and Jazz fans. Then, they delve into Jordan Harper's novel, "She Rides Shotgun." And they recommend some stuff. Johnny recommends three things, but that's just three things he will get credit for if you like them.

Johnny and Christopher are back after a two-month hiatus! (Hiatus sounds better than they didn’t record for two months.) They give their Top 5 reasons why it’s better to train at AOJ/garage, and the takeaway is they’re “conscious uncoupling” their Jiu-Jitsu journeys. They discuss the John Wick franchise. And they recommend some stuff. (Christopher recommends two things, so he nailed this part of the podcast.)

This is the non-bummer episode to cleanse the palate after the last one. All fun and games! We ignore all the drama in the world and focus on a friendship between two men based on rolling around with each other in pajamas or something like that. In this episode, Johnny and Christopher give their Top 5 things they’d rather be doing than recording a podcast. They discuss HBO Max’s The Menu. And they recommend some stuff.

Christopher and Johnny are genuinely grateful for their friendship, and they hope everyone has a ride or die like they do for the dark times when the wheels come off. They do Top 5 things they’re grateful for in 2022, discuss The Christmas Story, and recommend some stuff.

We give thanks for the Best Frenemies Thanksgiving extravaganza! Johnny and Christopher get this episode in just under the wire. The boys give you a heaping portion of Top 5 overrated things, a serving of them discussing the new Taylor Sheridan show Tulsa King, and a dollop of recommendations.

Johnny and Christopher need couples counseling. They bicker more in this episode than in any other. And while casting blame is not productive, it’s Johnny’s fault. When they’re not arguing, they give their top 5 fight scenes, discuss the film Bullet Train, and recommend some stuff.

Johnny and Christopher are coming in hot during a heatwave! The episode is titled: Johnny’s Fault. You might be asking yourself, “What is Johnny’s fault?” Everything! Everything is Johnny’s fault. Queen Elizabeth just died, and Johnny’s involvement can’t be ruled out. There is an unbearable heatwave cooking Southern California, and Johnny vapes constantly, so is that too blame? Who can say? And Best Frenemies becoming a bi-monthly podcast has Johnny’s name written all over it. I rest my case! Top five ways to die. They discuss the House of the Dragon. And they recommend some stuff.

Johnny and Christopher are getting out an episode before too many listeners start giving them crap. They share their Top 5 complaints from fans of the podcast. They discuss the Hulu series The Bear. And they recommend some stuff.

Johnny and Christopher are back just to shut up their fans. You’d think their podcast was the cure to cancer or something. “You’ve only recorded five episodes this year. What the hell?” You’ll get new episodes when you get new episodes! Johnny and Christopher live full lives (well, Christopher does. We don’t know what the hell Johnny does all day). In this episode, the boys give their Top 5 resentments. They discuss the new seasons of The Boys and Stranger Things. And they recommend some stuff. The Laker Chicken leaves a message on the smack-back line, which we don’t know how he did that—his number is blocked.

Johnny and Christopher are totally prepared for this episode. They are a well-oiled, podcasting machine. They have a new voicemail from a listener. They give Top 5 movies that better not get remade. They discuss the book and HBO Max series Tokyo Vice. And they recommend some stuff.
