Welcome to Franklin and Douglas Podcast Ep 56 – the comedy show where current events meet bad advice every single week. In this episode, we dive into the latest Silicon Valley drama starring none other than Mark Zuckerberg. His Palo Alto neighbors are fed up with the nonstop construction noise from his mega-compound, and his attempt at peace — handing out noise-cancelling headphones — only made headlines louder. We break down the bizarre story, the public’s reactions, and what it says about billionaire logic in 2025. 

 

Then it’s time for our signature bad advice. This week’s dilemma: how to tell your neighbor you don’t want to be friends. From passive-aggressive lawn decorations to sending mixed signals with barbecue invitations, we explore every wrong way to avoid awkward neighborhood friendships. 

 

If you’re into funny current events podcasts, satirical tech commentary, and comedy advice that should never be followed, this episode is for you.

Welcome to Franklin and Douglas Podcast Ep 55 – the show where current events, comedy, and bad advice collide. This week, we dive into one of the wildest internet rumors: the conspiracy theory that country legend Garth Brooks is secretly a serial killer. From social media memes to fan speculation, we break down how this bizarre theory started, why it won’t go away, and what it says about internet culture in 2025.

 

Of course, we’re not stopping at conspiracy theories. In our bad advice segment, we tackle a painfully relatable problem: friends who never pay you back for concert tickets. Do you send them Venmo requests every day? Fake-sell their seat to someone else? Or just show up at their house with a karaoke machine until they cave? We’ve got all the worst strategies covered. 

 

If you love funny current events podcasts, wild internet conspiracy theories, and terrible advice that no one should follow, this episode delivers the laughs.

Welcome to Franklin and Douglas Podcast Ep 54 – your weekly dose of current events, comedy, and terrible advice. In this episode, we dive into one of the most controversial names from the past: Kim Davis. That’s right, the former Kentucky clerk is back in the headlines, now trying to push the Supreme Court to overturn gay marriage. We break down the absurdity, the legal circus, and why this fight is still sparking outrage in 2025. 🌈⚖️

 

But the chaos doesn’t stop there. Next, we shift to the NFL world and the internet’s latest meltdown: the Minnesota Vikings introducing male cheerleaders. Fans are divided, Twitter is on fire, and we’ve got jokes, hot takes, and probably a few bad analogies. 🏈📣

 

And of course, it wouldn’t be Franklin and Douglas without bad advice. This week’s problem: what to do when your husband won’t stop bringing up the past. Whether it’s old arguments, exes, or that time you forgot his birthday, we’ve got the absolute worst strategies for handling it.

 

Perfect for fans of funny current events podcasts, satirical commentary, and uncensored comedy with edge.

Welcome to Franklin and Douglas Podcast Ep 52 – our 1-year anniversary special! That’s right, we’ve been delivering current events, dark humor, and wildly bad advice for 52 weeks straight — and we’re still barely canceled! In this episode, we celebrate our first full year of chaos by revisiting our favorite episodes and answering listener questions from the past year. 

But don’t worry, we’re not getting sentimental for too long. We dive into one of the most absurd stories hitting the headlines: a group is creating a whites-only settlement in Arkansas called "Return to the Land." We break it down with humor, disbelief, and the healthy amount of side-eye it deserves. 

Then it’s time for our infamous bad advice segment. This week’s topic: What do you do when your neighbor keeps parking in your driveway? From petty revenge to morally gray solutions, we’ve got all the wrong answers.

Perfect for fans of funny current event podcasts, satirical news commentary, and uncensored advice with bite.
