  • Episode 126 - Dream Jobs
    A first ever for the Manners Optional Podcast, we are putting out two episodes a week for the near future as we all try to pass the time waiting for some answers and direction with everything going on in the world.
    Mark and Matt talk about some of their Dream jobs they would like to have and although they had somewhat similar lists, and inline with their everyday interests, it is a subject they had never really talked about previously not just on the podcast but even over beers at the bar.

  • Episode 125 - Quarantined Op and Netflix Comedy Specials
    Now it has really sunk in for a lot of people that this coronavirus thing is real, there are still a lot of people that read the stats and they say it isn't that big of a deal. Mark doesn't agree with the latter, instead believing that a couple weeks at home to make sure you are safe is well worth it.
    In order to be at home with no sports and no work to do for that many consecutive days you need to watch a lot of Netflix and comedy specials are some of the boys favorite things to watch and there are two really good specials coming out this week and next and so many more good ones to watch on there as well.

  • Episode 121 - Corey Adam
    Mark and Matt start the episode with a little bit of sports talk before throwing it over to a conversation Mark had with Comedian Corey Adam who is based right here in Minneapolis, MN.
    They have a whole bunch of laughs getting to know each other a bit and have as much in common as they don't!
    You can figure you will all be hearing from Corey again in the near future as he is practically a neighbor of Mark and they both like talking......in case you can't tell.
