This week on The Old Fashioned Friendship, Bobby and Brandon pour a drink and immediately derail into pure, unfiltered chaos. The episode opens with a fake sponsorship from “SquareZone,” quickly followed by a heartfelt tribute to the Geo Metro — a car neither of them has ever driven but both feel morally obligated to roast. From there, the conversation swerves into golf‑cart commuting, backing into Food Lion like it’s a NASCAR pit stop, and the social consequences of having a reverse alarm louder than your music.
But the real spiral begins when the guys dive into their latest obsession: building RC boats that are absolutely destined to confuse future archaeologists. They debate waterproofing strategies that sound like rejected MythBusters experiments, brainstorm rescue‑bobber systems for when (not if) the boats sink, and try to remember whether grease, rope, or a rubber glove is the correct solution for a spinning metal shaft going through wood. Spoiler: they’re not sure, but they’re committed.
Between dad‑life updates, work chaos, and the kind of overthinking that would make an engineer weep, this episode is peak Old Fashioned Friendship — messy, hilarious, and powered entirely by bourbon and misplaced confidence. If you’ve ever wanted to hear two grown men design a boat like they’re preparing for the apocalypse, this one’s a ride.
