  • Away Messages & The Top 8

    2000-2008 was the greatest time to ever be alive in the history of mankind.  Take that to the bank and cash it? Or something.


    This week we reminisce over some of the awesomeness that was the 2000s. Everything from music to fashion trends to technology. We could have gotten deeper into things but had too much fun talking about Top 8s on Myspace and Buddy Lists on AIM.


    We then play a little game where we pick out top 10 songs we would play if we were at a hot, sweaty, dirty basement party in 2006. We'll need your feedback on who has the better list.

  • Thoughts & Prayers And/Or Protests

    We hope everyone had a wonderful week. We are back with another episode of Chop Cheese & Cheesesteaks. You're welcome. This week we catch up with Danni & Issa who enjoyed the wonderful weekend weather. After a quick weekend recap Danni goes into her experience at the run protest that happened in NYC this past Sunday which leads us into a discussion on the horrific murders of 8 Asian women in Atlanta by that white, American terrorist. Which then leads into a little chatter on the relationship between Asian Americans and African Americans. Because that needs some fixing. In "Here Today Gone Tomorrow" Richard has a lot to say about the fake outrage over the NCAA and how they treat the women's basketball tournament and of course we end things off with the final recap of ABC's The Bachelor.

  • Oreo Cookies

    Ello everyone! Recording to you live from London! Ok not really. We're still recording from our homes. BUT This week we take a somewhat deep dive into those 2 ex royals and their interview with Oprah.  Whether you care about the royal family or not, you heard about this interview in some way shape or form (Thanks social media). We find out midway through that Richard actually has no idea who Harry is. We also take a little time to mention some white people nonsense (that could be a weekly segment if we wanted it to be) and end things with an update on The Bachelor that really disappoints both Danni & Richard. Not that either expect much from Mr 2 first names Matthew James, but here we are.

  • Happy Ronaversary

    It's been about a year since Covid came along and shut shit down so we reflect on the last year. How things have changed. The fact that everyone assumed this was going to go away in a few weeks (boy were we wrong). Some industries we can't imagine ever making it out and a few things we actually miss. So can y'all act right so we can go back to those things please?


    This Rona special was a fun one. Richard tried to end the episode without Danni's update on The Bachelor but she made sure it happened.

  • Women Women Women!

    Ok. So we were tired as hell last week and apparently many of you felt the same way. But no worries, we're back, energized.....kinda. 


    This we get into some chatter about running. But not splits and PRs. But what women have to think about before going for a run and while on a run when it comes to safety and harassment. Per usual this topic takes us down a rabbit's hole of political chatter, race talk and other random topics that you are sure to enjoy.


    On of course, we wouldn't leave you without a weekly recap of The Bachelor by Danni


    Y'all better enjoy this episode because we had to record it TWO TIMES  due to some technical difficulties.  Gosh damn technology.

  • Fatigue Is Real Y'all!

    Exactly what the title says. Fatigue is VERY real.


    We pride ourselves on being real with you all and this week we are both honestly just very tired. Between the Rona and work and play and life, We're tired. So listen to us talk about fatigue from life. That sounds a bit dramatic but there's no way we are the only ones who are just tired....right?


    We also get into some "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow" topics like Justin Timberlake and his wack ass apology, Rush Limbaugh, Kanye and Kim calling it quits, maybe? Racism against Asians.


    And of course we end things with a recap of everyone's favorite show, The Bachelor.

  • Happy Valentine's Day

    Hello everybody! Your favorite duo is back with another episode of Chop Cheese & Cheese Steaks! This week, you could have already imagined, we're talking Valentine's Day! Or something like that. We talk about love, and bitter singles who hate this day along with everything that comes with it. Richard comes outta left field with a few random stories, per usual and Danni tells some short tales of her dating life past.


    Some things that will be gone tomorrow are the Gorilla Glue girl (pray for her), the former president and him being acquitted along with those nut ass folks in Utah who don't want their kids to participate in Black History Month.


    We wrap things up with Danni's almost famous recaps of The Bachelor.

    In hear today gone tomorrow chatter we BRIEFLY talk about Gamestop stock, Spotify's new patent that allows them to listen to everything going on in your life, the Super Bowl and end the episode, of course, with Danni's update on The Bachelor.

  • And I'm Blackety Black Y'all!
    Welcome to the 1st day of Black History month!!!  If you're black, are you ready to flex harder than usual for 28 days? If you're not black, do you have you "Black History moments" lined up and ready to post on IG so we know that you're down? 
    Just kidding. But this week we catch up with Danni who spent the cold ass weekend celebrating her birthday.  After a quick recap we talk about a lot of things black! Our feelings about Black History Month. Some of the foolery that happens every February surrounding it. Curiosity of what things will look like this year after all that happened in 2020 and Richard having little interest in the movie Black Panther. There are valid reasons. 
    Oh and we did NOT forget Danni's update on thee kind of entertaining but always full of bullshit television show millions love....The Bachelor.

  • Self Careless

    Welcome to another episode of Chop Cheese & Cheese Steaks! We missed you folks so much we decided to return with another week of great conversation. This time around our big topic is self care. Along with "self care". Now more than ever, WE ALL NEED SELF CARE!  But what is self care exactly? We discuss the different types of self care. A few misconceptions about it.  Richard swearing he doesn't need therapy. Danni really doesn't like church music. Briefly, and we mean BRIEFLY, touch on Bow Wow getting in trouble (http://bit.ly/2XYti6o) , folks moving out of San Francisco (http://nyti.ms/2N9FiQr) and minimum wage (http://cnb.cx/3nYrTaN).


    Oh and of course, Danni gives us an update on our favorite trash television show, The Bachelor.
