This week on Locked & Probably Loaded with DJ & Kelly, we're off to an appropriately chaotic start: Kelly is bleeding, DJ's face is bright red from tretinoin, and we're discussing the strategic value of loudly talking about anal sex while sneaking an entire meal into a movie theater.

DJ is also preparing to travel with an astronaut costume—and has already learned the hard way that once the helmet is assembled, getting it home is another problem entirely. Last time, a gate agent's solution was simple: wear the astronaut helmet onto the plane.

Then things get slightly more serious as we talk about the inability to admit when you're wrong, cancel culture, Pink's reaction to Macklemore, generational conflict and why humanity sometimes seems considerably closer to running toward the thunder than evolving past any of this.

DJ & Kelly at the Movies returns with Buddy—a bizarre comedy-horror movie that both of us loved—and Onslaught, which worked considerably better when the theater was literally spraying us in the face. We also discover DJ's perfect podcasting outfit: shirt, underwear, socks and shoes.

Finally, Kelly explains how a neighborhood walk nearly turned into a true-crime documentary when a coyote got within inches of her nephew. Good news: the child survived. Better news: DJ is now accepting babysitting jobs for only $3 million an hour.

DJ has returned from New Jersey exhausted, Kelly deliberately cuts off the intro, and this week's episode of Locked & Probably Loaded with DJ & Kelly is officially coming to you live from DJ's bed.

We start with boundaries—and DJ's increasingly toxic relationship with American Airlines after a seemingly endless series of delays. After dozens of flights and hours spent stranded in airports, DJ has one request: if the airline is going to make him live there, could they at least upgrade him from the lounge that looks like a bus stop?

Then we get into travel, cultural differences and the danger of assuming your own values automatically apply everywhere. DJ remembers trying to overpay a woman doing his laundry in the Philippines before being told to stop imposing his Western assumptions, while Kelly remembers being asked to stop tipping so much during a trip to India.

We also talk movies that may or may not make any sense, the apparently essential inclusion of dinosaur sex, modern parenting expectations, people who desperately need to mind their own business, and the strange internet trajectory of Lohanthony.

Then we finally dig into the listener inbox.

One listener has been with her boyfriend for four years and has always been clear that she wants marriage. Now he says marriage is “just a piece of paper”—but wants them to buy a house together. Is refusing to buy property without marriage an ultimatum? And more importantly… is an ultimatum necessarily a bad thing?

Kelly also explains why Daniel Sloss's Jigsaw relationship metaphor has stuck with her: sometimes the answer isn't forcing another person into the life you've imagined. It's recognizing that the pieces don't fit and choosing yourself.

Plus: movie theater snacks, gaydar, asymmetrical faces, shareholders, sex in Thailand and DJ's revolutionary new philosophy:

If it doesn't fit, get it away from me. I'm tired.

DJ is finally FREE from corporate tax prep, Kelly has popped blood vessels in both eyes from too much research, and somehow that’s only the beginning.

This week on Locked & Probably Loaded with DJ & Kelly, we get into Kaia Gerber’s story about being spiritually cleansed with a didgeridoo, Chris Hansen’s thoughts on Robert Pattinson playing him, the upcoming Anthony Bourdain movie Tony, and why having a Regal Unlimited pass has basically turned going to the movies into our part-time job.

We also talk ADHD, visual clutter and the impossible task of getting rid of stuff you’ve owned for years; celebrity impersonators who may look more like the celebrity than the actual celebrity; whether yachts are secretly terrifying; and the important financial strategy of sneaking a four-course meal—with dipping sauces—into a movie theater.

Then Kelly brings up a theory about the way men and women interpret the 1–10 pain scale at the doctor: are men comparing their pain to the worst thing they’ve personally experienced, while women compare theirs to the worst pain they can imagine? And could that be one more reason women unintentionally downplay their pain when seeking medical care?

Plus: New Jersey, hangovers, soft pretzels, mushrooms, tiny thumbs and entirely too much information.

DJ should be on a cruise. Instead, he’s doing taxes because his travel companion waited until the last possible second to remember one tiny problem: there’s a warrant out for his arrest.

Then DJ and Kelly recap a VERY busy week at the movies, including One Night Only, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Super Troopers 3 and I Want Your Sex. Which movies worked, which didn’t, and why exactly is One Night Only essentially “The Purge, but for sex”?

Elsewhere: why Dungeons & Dragons creates instant secondhand embarrassment, whether Gen Z’s declining interest in drinking and dating might have something to do with how insanely expensive it is to leave the house, DJ’s unwavering devotion to Irish Spring 5-in-1, rising electricity bills, political hypocrisy, the WNBA protest stunt, and the Lindsay Clancy trial.

Plus, on Patreon: DJ experiments with Jell-O that expired in 2022, The Last House gets absolutely demolished, and we establish the official Locked & Probably Loaded rule: listen to an entire episode before deciding whether you hate us.

DJ Qualls and Kelly Blackheart recap one of their most chaotic weeks yet, beginning with a hilariously brutal review of Her Private Hell, a film so bizarre that they couldn't stop talking about it long after leaving the theater. They also share their spoiler-free thoughts on The Odyssey, discuss Hollywood filmmaking, storytelling, and what separates artistic ambition from self-indulgence.

The conversation continues with stories from their Puerto Vallarta vacation, including travel mishaps, a nationwide T-Mobile outage that convinced them the apocalypse had begun, getting trapped in an elevator in Mexico, first-class flight upgrades, food poisoning before a flight home, awkward fan encounters, vacation disasters, and Kelly's newest hobby: learning to sew.

If you enjoy movie reviews, behind-the-scenes Hollywood conversations, travel stories, comedy, and unfiltered conversations about filmmaking and life, this episode is packed with laughs, unexpected detours, and plenty of chaos.

DJ Qualls and Kelly Blackheart record their latest (and most chaotic) episode yet after battling internet issues, late-night recording, and travel exhaustion. They break down DJ's nightmare airline experience returning from Toronto, discuss the current state of consumer protections, corporate consolidation, Hollywood's obsession with algorithms over creativity, and why independent filmmakers are being pushed out of the industry. The conversation also covers their upcoming Mexico trip, behind-the-scenes stories from the entertainment industry, a review of a recent movie, a hilarious Supernatural fan encounter, Conor McGregor's UFC injury, the changing landscape of television and film, and why audiences are craving original storytelling more than ever. If you love candid conversations about Hollywood, filmmaking, current events, travel, pop culture, and behind-the-scenes entertainment stories, this episode is packed with honest opinions, laughs, and plenty of unexpected detours.

This week on Locked & Probably Loaded with DJ & Kelly, we're covering everything from America's Got Talent and dating horror stories to Botox, world records, and why some people should never send a text after the first date.

We react to our friends The Doohickeys' appearance on America's Got Talent, discuss how reality TV editing can completely change a performance, and celebrate Kelsey Pfendler's incredible solo row from California to Hawaii after she shattered the previous record.

Plus, we dive into cosmetic procedures, travel prep for Mexico, weed and creativity, dating etiquette, first-date red flags, Taco Bell cravings, and the random conversations that somehow become our favorite parts of every episode.

If you enjoy comedy podcasts, pop culture, relationship stories, current events, and conversations that go completely off the rails, this episode is for you.
