October 22, 2025 Sleep, Sanity, and Saturday Night Video Games
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
We dive into the sacred art of sleep — from midnight routines to perimenopause brain fog and everything in between. 😴

We talk about the power of going to bed (and waking up) at the same time, how a lack of sleep can literally shrink your brain, and why one doctor told Frankie, “If you don’t change this, you’re gonna die.”

Jess shares her and Kev’s weekend rituals — bourbon, video games, and snoring — while Frankie talks about learning to rest after decades of running on fumes.

It’s funny, real, and a gentle reminder that sleep is medicine. 💤

October 21, 2025 “Wait… Were My Parents Even at My Graduation?”
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
Frankie has a hilarious realization - he’s pretty sure his parents didn’t even show up to his high school graduation. 😂

Between his mom working overnight shifts, chasing sleep like a full-time job, and his dad probably being at work, it’s a toss-up. Jess can’t believe it and demands he check with his mom (though Frankie’s not buying whatever answer she’ll give).

Plus, they go down memory lane talking about how graduations used to be - football fields, folding chairs, and zero traffic at the Maverik Center.

October 16, 2025 The Familiar Hell: Why We Stay in Toxic Relationships
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
In this deeply insightful episode, The Relationship Recovery joins us to explore why people stay in toxic or unhealthy relationships — even when they know they deserve better.

From trauma bonds to self-worth, they unpack how our subconscious clings to what’s familiar, even when it hurts. The conversation dives into gaslighting, emotional withdrawal, and the power of breaking free from cycles that feel impossible to escape.
Part conversation, part wake up call, filled with compassion and insight.

October 15, 2025 Cold Plunges, Misogis & Mind-Body Resets
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
In this episode of The Frankie & Jess Podcast, we catch up on everything - from spiritual awakenings to celebrity drama.

Frankie shares his recent Misogi experience with his buddy Thomas - a Japanese tradition of doing something that pushes you physically and mentally once a year. Their trip to Two Harbors, Minnesota for a Finnish sauna + cold plunge on the shores of Lake Superior turned into more than a challenge - it was a full-body, full-spirit reset. He talks about how it felt like a continuation of his Ayahuasca journey from 2023, and opens up about how grounding in nature not only helped him process the passing of his wife Tammy’s mom, Dixie, but also helped him be more present and stronger for Tammy during such a difficult time.
Jess shares her girls’ trip to Crystal Hot Springs, and the two dive into everything from J-Lo & Ben Affleck’s split to Dolly Parton setting the record straight after her sister’s viral post.

A reminder that life is about connection, laughter, and the moments that make us feel alive. 🌊🔥

October 14, 2025 When Life Shifts in an Instant
In this episode of The Frankie & Jess Podcast, we open up about something deeply personal - the passing of Frankie's wife Tammy’s mom, Dixie, at 79 years old.

She’d been in the hospital and later moved to the ICU, where things took a sudden and heartbreaking turn. Tammy, her dad Kit, her brother Kyle, and the entire family have been walking through grief, disbelief, and the wave of emotions that follow loss.

We talk about the moments that change everything, how to show up for one another when words fall short, and the power of community - because the love, prayers, and support we’ve felt from so many of you have meant the world.

If you’ve ever gone through loss, we hope this conversation offers a little comfort, connection, and peace. ❤️

October 09, 2025 Soft Approach, Hard Truths & Vacation Fails
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
We dive into why you don’t have to be a jerk to get results. Whether it’s parenting, relationships, or just handling life — a softer approach might be exactly what the world needs more of. 💙

We also share stories about things left behind on vacation (we’ve all done it 😅), Frankie’s evolving “definition of insanity” dynamic with his 87-year-old Ma, and the controversy surrounding a major comedy festival in Saudi Arabia — plus why one comedian’s choice absolutely broke Frankie’s fanhood.

October 08, 2025 From Engineer to Empath: The Power of Vulnerability with Dr. Burton
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
Dr. Burton from Aspen Grove Counseling is back — and every time he’s on, it’s like a free therapy session with a friend. 💙

We’ve known him for over 20 years, but we forgot one big thing — before becoming a therapist, he was an engineer! He shares how he made the leap to follow his true calling, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and why he wishes he’d started sooner.

We also dig into the challenges couples face today, the importance of vulnerability in relationships, and insights from his wife Lindy, a child therapist, on what kids are struggling with right now.

It’s honest, eye-opening, and full of heart — one of those episodes that makes you think and makes you feel a little lighter after listening.

October 07, 2025 Stingrays, Hockey Games & Banned Dogs
(Disclaimer: Adult language and content)
Jess wasn’t about to get in the water with the stingrays (and we can’t blame her), Frankie’s dog managed to get banned for life, and Axel played his first-ever hockey game!

We also get into why we think Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban might’ve called it quits (👀), talk Rusty’s doppelgänger & “The Hills Have Eyes” vibes.
