🎙️ Episode: Cabo Makeover Meltdown – The Pancake House Transformation

After a long, chaotic travel day home from Cabo — complete with circling O’Hare, a trash-filled Uber piloted by a man on Jesus music and edibles, and the kind of exhaustion that reshapes your soul — Pancake walks into the surprise of a lifetime: a full HGTV-style home makeover engineered by Leslie Lattes, Jen Dancin, and Sandy Strawberry Shortcake.

Meanwhile, Scramble recounts his own personal hell: being drafted into the technical nightmare of removing the TV from the fireplace, re-mounting it, managing the world’s flimsiest Samsung frame bezel, hooking up speakers, and trying not to snap while every person in the house asked him why he was “doing it like that.”

The gang revisits the chaos of Cabo: the cattle-call nude massage, the Golden Shower sports bar with 58 TVs and four wings for $20, soaked shoes, sand shoveling, screaming cruise ship kids, and Pancake simply wanting to lay by the pool — but being dragged into Activities™ instead.

With exhaustion, hilarity, and unexpected home-renovation emotions, S2E10 captures pure Miller Madhouse energy: chaos, friendship, rage, gratitude, and inappropriate jokes all rolled into one.

🎙️ Episode: Miller All-Stars & The Cabo Third Wheel Disaster

Jerry returns from Cabo with a tale of pure airline suffering — trapped in the middle seat between a couple who treated Row 18 like a honeymoon suite. Meanwhile, back home in Miller Beach, Jen Pancake and Josh Scramble are honored by the Miller Beach Citizens Corporation as this year’s Miller All-Stars for their community impact. Jerry is proud. Jerry is supportive. Jerry is also extremely bored.

Plus: cake mishaps, inflatable movie chaos, golf outing conspiracy theories, and what happens when you try to throw Miller-style celebrations with absolutely no plan.

🎙️ Episode: Trivia Throwdown – Season 5, Game 1 Recap
The Marshall J. Gardner Center was PACKED and loud as Josh Scramble unleashed “Ye Olde Cover Tunes” (yes, AfroMan on lute), Super Beach rode the chaos, and Facts Over Snacks clipped PhD’s Nuts in sudden-death overtime. We relive the near-riot over Smash Mouth, crown “Sticks and Dicks” as Favorite Wrong Answer for Kubb (aka Viking chess), salute a heroic bar tab, and issue a PSA: subscribe, scan the giant QR, and don’t beach-bomb two feet from our towels. Postgame? A Voltron of friend groups at Sand & Salsa, powerful margs, and accidental double tips. Miller, never change.

🎙️ Episode Title: Afterburners and Sunburners...

👥 Hosts: Jerry Pancake & Josh Scramble (with cameos from Broadway Beth, Joel, and Gianna “G-Eazy”)

🎧 Presented by: SoCoolShirts.com & All In Jest Trivia

💥 In this extra-toasty episode, the Madhouse crew recaps the Gary Air Show — Miller’s unofficial Super Bowl of sunburns, shitbags, and sketchy $20 driveway parking schemes. The Thunderbirds roar overhead while locals roast below, turning the beach into a battlefield of canopies, patio furniture, and pure chaos.
☀️ Josh reports live from the sand with survival tips: don’t fuck with the locals, bring water, and for the love of SPF, wear sunscreen unless you enjoy looking like graffiti-tagged ribs.
 🚗 Meanwhile, the neighborhood parking wars hit full tilt — from friends “borrowing” driveways, to mystery suspects running over safety signs, to Miller’s favorite hustle: $20 cash, grass, or ass to park between a busted trampoline and a rusted-out Camaro.
 🔥 Add in a live “shitbag count,” sunburn horror stories, and a PSA about not setting up your towel two inches from someone else, and you’ve got peak Miller madness.

🎙️ Episode Title: Born on the 3rd of July

👥 Hosts: Jerry Pancake, Josh Scramble, Elizabeth Benedict

🎧 Presented by: SoCoolShirts.com & The Miller Beach University of Advanced Consumption

💥 In this red, white, and totally unhinged episode, the gang recaps a wild stretch of summer madness in Miller Beach. First up, a fight breaks out at The Flamingo just before the 4th — punches, flip-flops, and bad decisions flying through the air like bottle rockets.

☀️ Then we check in on the heatwave that’s got everybody spicier than gas station salsa, and reflect on the emotional toll of 92 degrees, warm beer, and shirtless overconfidence.

🎆 And finally, it’s our 4th of July wrap-up — Miller-style. One rookie drinker nearly goes down for the count, but is heroically saved by a bikini-clad mom-squad trained by sheer instinct and poolside Pinot Grigio. If you're new to Miller, know this: our 4th is not for beginners. It’s T-ball meets MLB fastballs, and the only rule is don't pass out in the sand.

🧢 Sponsored by SoCoolShirts.com — where your hangover can be stylish — and the prestigious Miller Beach University of Advanced Consumption — educating the next generation of questionable decisions since last Thursday.

🔊 Tune in and remember: in Miller, the fireworks don’t stop just because the sky clears.

🎙️ Episode Title: First Cars & Kinda-For-Sale Dreams

In this very special episode of Miller Morning Madhouse, Jerry Pancake finally spills the (motor) oil on true stories he’s never shared before—his legendary first cars. Buckle up for tales of a wobbly Karmann Ghia and a 1977 Cutlass Supreme so massive it needed its own zip code. These are the rides that started it all—and yes, we’re talking about the IROC-Z too. It’s still around. It’s still loud. And it’s kinda for sale (if you’re cool).

🎭 Also in this episode: a shoutout to the Madwomen’s Late Night Cabaret, the latest production from Miller Community Theatre, running this weekend and next at the Marshall J. Gardner Center for the Arts in beautiful downtown Gary. 👉 millercommunitytheatre.com

🚗 Bonus nostalgia bomb: We’re rerunning the very first commercial ever made for the SoCool Podcast—a 2019 throwback ad for Betten Chevrolet in South Haven, Michigan, recorded by Jerry Pancake and Christopher Robin in the middle of a fever dream and a snowstorm. It’s as chaotic and brilliant as you'd expect.

🎸 S2E2 – You Can’t Get There from Here

In this episode of Miller Morning Madhouse, Jerry Pancake and Jen Pancake stay safely behind the mic while Josh Scramble returns from the Sonic Temple Music Festival with tales of glory, grit, and gastrointestinal distress.

What starts as a music review quickly unravels into a cautionary tale about rideshare disasters, rickshaw salvation, and why you should never trust a festival porta-potty after dark. Josh recounts the madness of 100-band lineups, questionable fashion choices (bondagewear in the sun?!), and the existential despair of trying to find your Uber when every parking lot looks like a post-apocalyptic escape room.

From Alice Cooper’s guillotine to Metallica’s ear-shattering finale, Josh delivers the highlights, the low points, and the lingering chili-related trauma. Jerry and Jen offer running commentary, incredulous reactions, and a healthy dose of judgment from the comfort of the studio.

🎧 Season 2, Episode 1: Heavy Uncles, Moshpits, and Goth Tits
Welcome back to the Miller Morning Madhouse, where the coffee’s burnt, the guests are unpaid, and the FCC hasn’t figured out how to shut us down yet. Pancake and Scramble are back in the saddle (and in serious need of a nap), joined by the fabulous Jen Pancake and our man in the pit—Josh Scramble—who just survived Sonic Temple Music Festival with only minor bruising and one mysterious stain.

In this episode, we dive headfirst into:

• The biology of the Heavy Uncle – a rare, tank-topped beast who emerges from his garage every May to rock a Megadeth tee and call every band “real music.”
• Moshpit etiquette (spoiler: don’t wear flip-flops).
• An in-depth analysis of the modern-day goth—yes, they still walk among us, and yes, some of them are now surprisingly busty.
• Plus, Scramble’s firsthand report from the festival trenches, where he allegedly wept during a Deftones set and paid $14 for a churro.

🎭 As always, a special shoutout to our friends at Miller Community Theatre for keeping the drama on stage where it belongs.
