Grunts in Appalachia

The competition was on with the MRE challenge.  Two meals were chosen by each host in a blind draw format.  The each person had ten minutes to make the tastiest meal possible with the two meals that were chosen.  We delve into some MRE stories and explain our creations to each other as we taste test the colorless mush before us.  We at least had fancy Chipotle take out trays for presentation.  

The show took a turn afterwards as Brandon and John talk about their vasectomies and the stupid things they did to themselves directly after surgery.    

This week on Grunts In Appalachia we talk sports, but not your everyday sports.  We each took it upon ourselves to find the oddest sports that are played anywhere in the world, and when we say odd we mean it!  Gorgeous George wants to know about Jai Alai, John talks about Wife Carrying, and Brandon is still puzzled by pickle ball.  We talk more about what is actually a sport, and debate on whether or not we should bring back the Coliseum (Gorgeous votes a hard yes here).

The Grunts talk aliens.  Particulaly we discuss the alien war at the Dulce Base in New Mexico, the story of Valiant Thor and the entire town of Nuremburg witnessing an alien war in spaceships above them in the 1500s!  

We jump off topic plenty of times for side conversations and our normal theatrics that you all are used to and why you love us. 

There will be some polls on Facebook coming up this week in regards to aliens and other worldly things.  Tune it! 

Grunts in Appalachia Out!

Special Guest Corbette Williams joined us today for a wild episode.  Corbett is another fellow Marine Grunt so he fit right into the craziness.

We've all probably heard about it by now but the wealthy elites of the world want you to stop eating so much beef and transfer over to bugs!  So of course we had to go out and purchase some, that way we could let all of you know just how tasty these little critters really are out of the bag.  So we dined on the podcast and we explain the flavor and texture of the crickets and meal worms that we ate. 

Brandon decided that since his nose hair was out of control that we all had to have the inside of our noses waxed on air as well and that lasted about a whole 7 minutes and now all of us are breathing better.  Brandon's lady Christina did a great job of keeping the mood light but she was real serious about ripping that wax out of our breathing holes.  I'll never understand why women love to inflict pain on men when they are allowing it but to each their own I guess. 

We discuss a couple of current events and Brandon jumped in late with a Wellness Check. 

This is a wild episode, not for the kiddies.  But it's pretty comical if you like a little grunt humor.

Happy Valentines Day to everyone!  

As everyone knows by now the Kansas City Chiefs won the Superbowl.  Brandon is beyond happy and now has to find new things to do between now and next football season, we think he's going to get into Nascar again.  We discus the Superbowl, especially the atrocious halftime show with brought to you by the red cladded Rhianna.  The internet was all over it but we had to have our three cents as well. 

Since the first air to high altitude strike was made on the Chinese spy balloon there have been 3 other high altitude UFOs shot out of the sky in multiple places, here all about it here first. 

Brandon tells some stories about how offended everyone is nowadays about everything, fake IDs and small humans.  We went way off script on some of this so it got a little wild but you need that sometimes.

Grunts in Appalachia Out!

It all started out completely normal.  You know a Chinese balloon slowing roaming across our entire country, yeah about that.  That's where it all began on this episode and we might have believed it was going to be the biggest talking point before the second half of the podcast began.

Brandon being the die hard Chiefs fan that he is talked a little smack about the upcoming Superbowl.  I think we will all be on the Chiefs side for this one in support of Brandon since Yiorgi and John don't have a dog in the fight.

So the second half is the Big Bang and evolution theory between Yiorgi and John primarily. Maybe the very first debate on the program, always fun playing the mental games if ya know what I mean.  Please take a guess  who is team science and who is team follow the science, yeah there's a difference. 

It was all in good fun and no punches were thrown so that's a win.  

Enjoy and if you follow us on social media let us know what you think of this weeks episode of Grunts in Appalachia.

Grunts in Appalachia Out!

So we started the evening out dumping out some of Brandon's acquired gear from the Army before he retired and there was a lot of stuff, not to mention that we only scratched the surface of what he has colleting dust in his basement.

How in the world we started talking about the birds and the bees and the rise of technology all at the same time?  We sure did, and we compared our time as children to what todays children have to deal with when it comes to having any information that you could ever dream of in the palm of your hand every day

Brandon talks about the technology used in the Army while forward deployed in the radio operations center and all the ways that they can listen in on anyone having a conversation.  Did you know that text messaging has been a thing for many decades prior to being in the hands of everyone, this went from Brandons personal story of such use to a story that John remembered reading about from a long time ago.  No need to guess about it just take a listen. 

The notorious Alaskan Bush Company was also discussed and while two of the three members of the squad here haven't ever been it sounds like a down right crazy place, towards the end of the episode and an establishment that sounds pretty wild to check out. 

As always we love entertaining you guys, if you love what we're doing please consider becoming a monthly donor which you can do on the Anchor or Spotify app.  We appreciate you all!

Vacation Travel Stories

CEO of Matt Peyton of Thraxx THC and CBD company sat down with us this week and brought the goodies.  We learned a lot about different variations of strains and the process that his company uses to make the very popular Delta 8 edible gummies.  

Brandon tells a great story on Gorgeous George in the second half and we like always had a great time!  I hate writing to much up on this because you need to take a listen instead of getting the CLIFF notes.
