Certified Good Boy

Tim and I have been friends since the Fall of 1999 at the University of Texas at Austin back when I was a depressed, anxious 19 year old struggling to make friends and Tim was a confident 18 year old who was shaking off a conservative Christian upbringing. Tim helped me find a self-assuredness that had eluded me up to that point, and he discusses the ups and downs of his life including a sudden stroke when he was just 39 years old. Tim also tells us about the exciting new chapter of his life currently unfolding on the Whatnot app where he brings his love of pocket knives to the world. Follow Tim at @Southeye5 on YouTube and Whatnot.

Sam is a former member of the Austin comedy scene, and I was deeply honored that she was willing to come on the pod to discuss a very traumatic experience she endured that resulted in her leaving comedy and the state of Texas. Expect serious subject matter in this episode as Sam courageously tells her story, how she was lied to, manipulated, and sexually assaulted by deception, and then was subsequently ignored and ostracized from the local comedy community. There are plenty of powerful lessons here along with lots of hope, humor, redemption, and inspiration. Follow Sam at @justpants_pdx on Instagram.

As a professional editor, Alyssa has been in male dominated spaces for years, and she is kind enough to tell me about the fascinating feminine origins of film editing as well as what it feels like to be marginalized and talked down to by male colleagues. While some men in the industry continue to just hire their male friends, Alyssa also speaks very highly of the certified good boys who have helped her career along the way and what aspiring good boys can do to be better and do better (ie: Helping women and NOT expecting anything in return!). Alyssa also opens up about what it's like raising a little man: her soon-to-be 5 year old son! Keep up with her incredible photography and directing work on Insta at @alyssaonfilm_.

OnlyFans model Elise Perry comes on the pod and talks about her experience starting an OnlyFans back in 2024, and how much she has enjoyed it ever since. Elise talks about loving all the compliments and positive attention she gets and how mutually beneficial having an OF can be for models and their fans, especially when guys treat women with kindness and respect. Meanwhile Lane opens up about his own issues around sex, shame, porn, and body image and the importance of sex, body, and kink positivity.

Matt Stoker is a broadcaster, podcaster, and a producer who I've known for 20 years, and he talks Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and how the Holy Grail's promise of eternal life continues to be the dream of all old powerful white dudes even to this day. Matt opens up about growing up in a small town outside of Fort Worth, his earliest male role models, fathers and sons, and the traumas of radio broadcasting, which I especially relate to. Together we explore how Indy in some ways is a classic complicated hero, and in other ways is a dirtbag! Keep up with Matt and his production work at @mattstoker1 on instagram and be on the lookout for the upcoming podcasts he is producing Front of Book and Ladies of Longitude!

Comedian and constant gardener Christian Hughes tells me about how misinformation and misconceptions around the Civil War are in many ways responsible for the racism and divisions in America, especially here in Texas and throughout the South. Christian is an expert storyteller who tells one engrossing factual account after another illustrating how the Civil War was most definitely not about states rights as many have claimed and was instead about slavery and white supremacy. While he's at it, Christian goes on to say what must be done if America is ever going to actually heal and move forward.

My wife Chloe Ingram joins me on the podcast to speak the truth about perimenopause, and she knows from experience. Find out why this is an often misunderstood, overlooked part of life for half the world's population and as Chloe can tell you, IT FUCKING SUCKS. We get into our 22 year history, including Lane getting testicular cancer 2 months into dating. With midterm elections this November, believe me this episode will have you shouting for free healthcare for all, Planned Parenthood, and women's rights.

Full title: "He's Either Very Smart or Very Dumb: Jaws and Masculinity." I thought I was a Jaws expert... but legendary maker, editor, and content creator Ron Lechler joins me from Chicago and schools the pants off of me on this legendary macho blockbuster. Ron talks crucial differences between the book and the movie (Hooper and Mrs. Brody did WHAT?), classic male archetypes, power, vulnerability, greed, hubris, and even discusses his own sexuality. Lane confesses Ron is a harbinger of BDE. Follow Ron at @ronlechler on Instagram and No Good Tapes on Etsy.

I grew up loving the X-Men cartoon of the 90's, but actor/comedian Kyle Irion REALLY loved it. Kyle opens up about growing up in Waxahatchie, Texas watching Cyclops, Wolverine, Professor X, and Magneto on his television religiously every Saturday morning. Kyle helps us look at the many lessons guys can take away from the show, the movies, and beyond, including Kyle's own father who was a healthy male role model who also loved X-Men. Next thing you know, the conversation gets even deeper with discussions on Christianity, Islamaphobia, civil rights, trans rights, fascism, and genocide. Check out Kyle and his fantastic improv duo The Blade the first Friday of the month at ColdTowne Theater in Austin and the last Sunday of the month at Fallout Theater.

I thought I hated the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but this week on the podcast Austin filmmaker Spencer Lucas convinces me to give the classic films a closer look through the lens of healthy male friendships. And that's a subject I LOVE. Whether you love the films like Spencer or have historically found them boring as f*** like me, there are plenty of great examples of healthy masculinity and wholesome male role models throughout!
