This week, the guys go over their top stuff from the second half of 2025. With the year winding down, were there any/many things worth recommending to the masses? Both Josh and Evan have at least a few pieces of content on their 'best-of' lists, and they're happy to share. Listen in to find out what some of their favorite movies, shows, books, video games, podcasts, foods, and more were over the back end of the year! The guys also talk a bit about their busy holiday time, and they hope YOU all have a happy holiday season as well! Thanks for listening! And don't worry, there are still Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits for your listening pleasure.

This week, the guys have a present in store: themselves! After an extended break between episodes, the podcast is BACK! But this episode needs a "Beware of Dog" sign as Evan has a noisy guest to deal with. Since they last recorded, Evan has been to California and back, and Josh has been busy, too. The guys talk about what they've been up to, including some exciting zoo talk that's chock-full of Fact of the Week tidbits. With Christmas quickly approaching, the guys also chat about gifting in what seems like an annual tradition. Do they have some cool experiential ideas on deck this season, or will a good pair of slippers go down as the No. 1 gift? Listen in for "sticking it to the man" and This Day in Hear-story tidbits, and thanks for sticking with us!

This week, the guys discuss the different ways they keep track of their lives. Like most people these days, most of their historic footprint is stored digitally on their phones. So, is that enough, or should they have physical pictures like past generations and keep tangible records like Josh likes to do? Who knows, maybe keeping notes on your phone as Evan does is enough. Plus, who's even going to want to look at your old memories anyway, right? The guys also discuss some holiday happenings, some stellar "sticking it to the man" moments, and more. And don't worry, there are Fact of the Week and This Day in Hear-stroy tidbits too!

This week, the guys have some catching up to do after Josh's California excursion. And funnily enough, it comes just a couple of weeks before Evan heads to California, too! So, how was the podcast's first of two trips out west? Did Josh get screwed by the government shutdown, or was it smooth sailing? The guys also discuss their travel preferences, and they certainly have their differences of opinion. Who likes going to the same place over and over? And who prefers to see and do new things? Find out the answers to these questions and more! Like, which state would be easiest to travel across? And, as always, hear about Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits!

This week, the guys are gabbing about the government shutdown. Josh has a vacation coming up quickly, but there's a chance there won't be any TSA agents available and FAA workers ready to help facilitate a flight! So, will Josh get to California by air, or will he have to hit the road to make it happen? The guys also recap how it was to hang out at each other's houses for the first and last time of the year, and how Halloween went. There's also some social media discussion and other things to chat about, as well as your usual Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits!

This week, the guys are getting geared up for a Halloween party! Evan is hosting the biggest bash since college, and the two of them will finally be hanging out at one of their nearby houses. Josh is still trying to figure out what to wear, though, so can Evan help him out? And will whatever he decides be any scarier than the artificial intelligence problem that is threatening society as we know it?! It's certainly getting scary out there, and it might be too late to go back now. But hey, at least Evan hasn't given in just yet! And as always, there are also Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits for your listening pleasure.

This week, the guys settle into their usual roles, with Evan getting back into the gig economy and Josh coming up with crazy ideas to try to stay "on brand." Evan is actively recording from a Rover stay, his second dog-watching gig of the day! And it all comes during a week where he got back to donating plasma, reviewed more Five Guys, bought/sold stuff online, and got up to more classic side hustle shenanigans. Josh, on the other hand, is having wild thoughts about uprooting his life and moving on to the Big Apple. Is it a good idea, or is it just something to do to be "on brand?" The guys will dig into that a little now, and more at a later date. And as always, there are Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits for your listening pleasure!

This week, the guys are having a heck of a Friday as they're recording together in person after teaming up to take on Five Guys. Don't worry, no fisticuffs preceded this episode as they were together taking down Five Guys Burgers and Fries. Still, it's a hefty load to bear! Their lunch date leads to discussions about what lunch looks like for each of them and how often they go to lunch. The guys also have a shared murder mystery experience to discuss, as well as some other exciting happenings. So, did Evan crack the case, or was Josh the man for the job? And what other shenanigans will happen in the middle of their in-person recording? Listen in to find out! And as always, there are Fact of the Week, "sticking it to the man," and This Day in Hear-story tidbits for your listening pleasure.

This week, the guys turn into data analysts who break down their own cellphone usage. We're not just talking a daily or weekly breakdown, the guys are looking at EIGHT YEARS of cellular data! So, what does Evan's data say about him? And how much music does Josh listen to? The guys are certainly intrigued, and hopefully it gets you to check out your data history too! The guys also talk about Evan's big day of "sticking it to the man," some upcoming murder mystery mayhem, and more. And as always, there are Fact of the Week and This Day in Hear-story tidbits for your listening pleasure!

This week, the guys try something they've never done before: a live unboxing of a possible "sticking it to the man" haul! Evan just bought a big box of stuff based on one high-value item he could see, but he doesn't really know what other goodies he might find. So, will he uncover some sellable gems? Or is he the proud owner of a hunk of junk? Maybe he can help fund Josh's new blinds since blocking the sun can be blindingly expensive! The guys also recap their weeks, including a raving review of Kokomo, Indiana, and a Homearama hangout. And as always, there are also some Fact of the Week and This Day in Hearstory tidbits mixed in!
