  • Dirty Dances with Wolves

    On another special Covid-free quarantine episode Greg leads the crew in a chat about our furry friends. Not actual furries…social distancing prohibits furry gatherings. We’re talking about dogs! Grab a treat and settle in for what we hope is a brief diversion from the current reality.

  • F**k Alex Jones

    Ah conspiracy theories...fodder for tabloids and wannabe journalists alike. They can be entertaining like people believing that the earth is flat and they can be deplorable like someone claiming a school shooting was faked in an attempt to take people's guns away. (Seriously...eat shit Alex Jones.) On this episode of HDI we're talking conspiracy theories, in all their bizarre glory. Amazingly though, we never talked about Elvis. But don't worry we definitely chat about Mel Gibson. Also the earth is hollow. You heard it here first!

  • A Sleeveless Puffer

    An HDI Special Presentation: We're all trying to make the best out of having to stay home. Here at HDI we decided to do a virus-free, off schedule episode on what we all want to be doing right now...playing outside. Kevin leads the crew as we chat about how Americans aren't doing as much in the great outdoors as we used to. We'll chat about the benefits of spending time outside, the harms of a primarily indoor lifestyle, and also...has anyone else not actually seen the movie Grease or is Kevin alone on this one? Look for an Instagram poll later this week.

  • Get Away From My Motorcar

    Ah, the American Dream: our right to be born in the slums, work hard, and eventually become CEOs of multi-billion dollar companies that don't have to pay taxes. On the latest episode of HDI Kevin leads the crew in a talk about what drives us to achieve the greatest heights we can. And who actually has a legitimate shot at the American Dream. (Spoiler alert...it's white men.) Journey with us as we chat and light fancy cigars with hundos! Well, probably more like 20s. Actually it's singles. Honestly they're Swisher Sweets that someone left in Greg's car six years ago and we can't find a lighter. We're releasing this one a couple days early since everyone could use a laugh right now. Enjoy!

  • It's For the Kids

    Join us for our first ever Swear Jar Episode! John leads the crew in a discussion about censorship. So what did we do? We censored ourselves. And we're using our profanity for good by donating to charity every time we swear. This episode is benefiting Child Help, a great non-profit that helps abused and neglected kids. You can help too! Head to our Campaign Page and make a pledge for each time we curse. (Don't worry, you can cap it.) Let's help some great kids get a second chance!

  • How Do You Like My Boa?

    Dating has been around for a long time. From leaving a calling card, giving a wink, and hoping for the best to swiping right (or is it left) with a feverish vigor in an attempt to find the perfect mate, humans have long engaged in the courting process. On this episode of HDI Greg leads the crew in a discussion about dating. And who better to talk about dating than two married men and another guy in a committed relationship? But don't worry...we have opinions and stories that will make you laugh, cry, and feel bad for us.

  • I'm Getting a Boat!

    Ah credit cards...the cause of and solution to all of life's problems. Or, at least, many of them. On this episode of HDI we're chatting about revolving debt...in all its glory. We'll talk history, present, pros, cons, and everything in between. Plus, John will give you his current credit score, social security number, mother's maiden name, current and previous addresses, salary, and turn ons and turn offs. Come for the humor, stay for the identity theft.
