From the Middle

#303. Maybe the chicken crossed the road because it was being chased by an old Red Ryder. And if you must begin to pick to choose which kid’s sports endeavors to follow more loyally, is it automatically the middle child who gets less attention? After all, AI can do a fantastic job of giving them parental coaching. Jokes aside, this episode also encases the heartfelt story and beautiful gift from a father seeing his eldest off to college. So until next time, don’t let AI replace your relationships, take time to stop for the chickens, and until next time, be kind to each other.

#302. Going once, going twice, SOLD (for free) to whoever will come get it. Unless they can’t. And no, I can’t hold on to it for 2 days. You all know the drill. We get into a bit of online sales etiquette with more questions than answers. Also, a minivan with a missing door looks weird. And a good speakeasy might no longer be necessary, but it’s still a cool experience. After the break, Kendall tries to offend most guys who aren’t in their nineties and we share a bit about what we are streaming while Dillon gets into some gaming! This episode came off the hip, and we hope you enjoy it! We enjoyed hanging out. Until next time, be kind to each other.

#301. Just as our staggered start is beginning to level out, the kids are all back in school after staggering themselves! Some of us miss them. Others are glad they don’t need to pay for childcare and camps anymore. Shout out to the working parents who just got through another summer of schedule mayhem. After a short discussion about the above, we use the rest of this episode to catch up on all of our streaming for the past few months, and there is A LOT! Highlights include Nonnas, Perfect Days, Downton Abbey, Fantastic Four, The Andy Griffith Show, and KPop Demon Hunters.  One more time for the algorithm: KPOP DEMON HUNTERS! Hop on our socials and please keep us up to date with YOUR recommendation, and, until next time, be kind to each other.

#300. We’re back again with more good tales but with less entrails! We’ve been waiting so long to record our 300th episode that Dillon came up with a bunch of 300-related would you rather questions. From our favorite foods to starring in low budget films, we answer some hard-hitting hypotheticals. After the break, we get caught up on logging away our Summer happenings highlighted by family time, injuries, and hospital stays. Thank you for sticking with us and, until next time, be kind to each other.

#299.5. Hello friends! Our first upload in a little while is here and we are glad to be back with a short episode discussing life and logging some of it on our little podcast before we dive back in to business as usual. We appreciate your patience and support. We love you, and if you haven't been kind to each other in the meantime, we're telling Santa.

#299. We’ve got your zero calorie drinks to wash down your choriqueso. And trust us, you want ice with that. From our favorite type of ice, to hot finds at the grocery store, to lasagna portioning, it’s a very Midwestern overweight dad kind of episode that digs into the areas of our brains that we feel don’t get talked about enough. After snack time, we even lament the allergy season and are looking for your spring air remedies. Speaking of exciting and riveting topics, how about getting title transfers completed at the DMV. Or BMV. I never which it is for sure, but we did have fun recording this one and hope you enjoy and find something to share with us via the LinkTree below! Until next time, be kind to each other.

#298. Happy Birthday to Dillon! And Happy Easter to all of you! Both things are late, but we mean it anyway. Speaking of Easter, Kory got to try out his acting chops…guess who he got to be in THAT story. During our weekend recap, Kory shares how two of his kids made use of his health insurance, then we share some of YOUR answers of how you treat yourself on vacation. After the break, we settle a spicy debate then talk about how you should (or shouldn’t ) step in to help the restaurant staff deal with your large and young dinner party. Then we move along to some media consumption. This week it’s Daredevil Born Again, Andor season 2, Formula One, The #1 Lawyer, and Odd Thomas. We hope you enjoy and chime in via the LinkTree! Until next time, be kind to each other.

#297. “Turn your head and cough.” “Open wide and don’t bite down." "Don’t blink and don’t move your head.” What makes you nervous about seeing medical professionals? Let us know that and also what YOU would have done in Kory’s later-mentioned social situation. Also, there’s an opportunity to unearth your darkest secrets via the LinkTree below. We want to hear what you would expect your future self to know about you for verification purposes. Kory shares a funny story of a rare opportunity with Bobby Lee, one of his favorite comedians. Did he say the right thing? Was he too creepy? Not creepy enough? Speaking of cringe, what do we think of the young folks and their new movie-going habits? Is it good for the industry? Is it more like “Not in MY theater!” in the vein of “Get off my lawn!?” We’re also watching some interesting sports now that the blockbuster stuff is gone. UFC, The Masters, Formula 1, Hockey, and the like, with special mention of a beloved track-and-field athlete. Listen and enjoy! Until next time, be kind to each other.

#296. Taking a bite out of crime just to become pirates as we fight off the albino ghosts of extinct wolves. That was too long for the title, so it’s the first sentence of this thing. Kendall is back from vacation and shares some stories, including someone hitting on his wife. Kory shares some of his travel experience in Seattle which leads us to discuss some regional food and the competition between cities. After the break, we briefly discuss how we let our hair loose for vacation before we dive into not just streaming, but also reading and listening. This week it’s Love on the Spectrum, Arcane, Formula 1, Drive to Survive, Soul Boom, Forever Odd, March Madness, and Tiny Desk Concerts (Billie Eilish). Tell a friend and tell US your thoughts via the LinkTree below! Until next time, be kind to each other.

#295. While Kendall is out on vacation, the Hubbell brothers bring friend and co-host of Grab’em in the Brisket Podcast back onto the show. Jon serves as third chair and we get a chance to pick his experienced brain about the culture of cooking competitions. How serious are those things really? Do rivalries pop up? Does Jon’s real family know about his barbecue family? That conversation glides into another world we continue to learn more about: The Dungeons and Dragons world. On the back half, the guys run down a list of American stereotypes of both the regional and countrywide variety. We established that Jon does NOT make out with his pets, but he does appreciate treats from travelers he meets in his airline job, which lends an opportunity to discuss some travel stereotypes and tendencies of various cities and states. This is a fun listen and a great conversation to continue via the LinkTree below! Until next time, be kind to each other.
