  • Crypto

    We are back and ready to get into the world of Cryptocurrency but in our own strange and chaotic style. 

    Before we could get to our guest, we had to start with the epic golf story of Consie and Chaps. It left the Big D jealous because it sounds like the boys were all juiced up (3:00). The Big O joins late this week, but, man, did he make an instant impact when he asked, "Who would be the face of our podcast?" (13:45)  Then the QRZones’ hotline presented our first guest in a while Mayne (@tradermayne on Twitter) joined the crew to talk cryptocurrency and Twitter fame (176.5k Twitter followers!!) (19:30). Consie has an idea for StrytoCrypto (51:26), which somehow leads the boys to talk about all the amazing stuff they’re going to get up to on the new website (noinstructionsneeded.ca) (53:42).

    The boys finish the podcast by talking some NBA and PGA (62:00). So, yeah, it’s that time. Time for our chaos. Time for us to take the wheel. Time for some fun—fun that has No Instructions Needed.

  • Barkerville or Bust

     The record setting month of May is coming to an end and the boys are getting into summer mode! 

    This week’s episode is brought to you by Barkerville Brewing. Since opening in 2014, the Barkerville Brewing Co. has won four Canadian brewing awards as well as six in BC! Visit the brewery and settle in at their custom timber king’s table. Bring your kids! Their lounge is fully licensed, serves pizza and snacks, and pours a wide selection of Barkerville brewing craft beers. Cider, wine, and pop are also available. Come enjoy it all on the patio! 

    We start this week’s episode off with the Big O's baby story! The now three-time daddy shares his experiences from the past week with arrival of his new son! This leads to the dads on the crew discussing their wives’ labor stories (4:00). The guys come to the conclusion that sleep is important, especially before kids (13:00). Surprise, surprise Consie is still married, and the No Instructions Needed DMs have been getting filled up with accounts trying to help the boys start up their Only Fans account (17:30). Allan then steers the conversation to mom and dad stories from their experiences as parents and, well, things get messy, sticky, and down right weird (24:00). The Big O wants Chaps’ take on the recent DC news but for some reason Chaps drops a controversial take on “Saved by the Bell” (40:00).  The Big D talks about Amazon buying MGM and the potential death of Netflix (52:40). The last topic is one near and dear to three of the four hosts’ hearts, "The Office.” This leads to the Office vs Parks and Rec (60:00), which obviously needs no further introduction.

    Thank you all for the record setting month of May! Now let’s crush it some more! So again, this is nothing but our brand of chaos—a life where there are No Instructions Needed.

    We start with a simple but electric question: Where do you get the better hot dog experience—at a baseball game or at the turn on a golf course? (4:30) As you may have seen, it was Chaps’ birthday last week, so the boys grill him. A talk about that and bedroom antics leads the crew pondering if we even care about our birthdays anymore. (12:30) Then, as per usual as of late, the boys talk "internet sites.” Only Fans is discussed in length (20:00). Consie gives his "How To" videos a quick plug (24:20) just before the crew goes back for seconds on Only Fans. (28:07) The Big Eggplant (‘er, D), Consie, and Chaps reminisce about a night club in Kamloops (35:00), which leads to the question of, “What song takes you back to a bar?” (40:00) The Big O makes the men ponder about what their Tinder profile would say now if they were to have an account (46:00). And, finally, the cast ends with an old segment brought back to life....the Quiz (62:00).

    We start the episode by giving thanks to our loyal and ever-growing audience (1:00). The boys quickly turn into Elon Musk and some rich dudes doing rich things (4:30).

The crew can’t figure out how to work the ol’ TikTok because they are, well, old (40:00). Chaps asks, “What is the equivalent of buying women flowers but for men?" (45:45) Baseball is dying and the boys try to fix it (51:00) (FIGHT!?!) Also, the NHL was absolutely crazy last week (64:00).

    Back to business... This week we start the episode off by welcoming Allan Connor to our brand of chaos (1:00). The guys quickly transition to Dean giving himself quite the nickname (4:30). The Big O sways the conversation to the NFL and, of course, the draft (10:30). Dean has enough of the NFL and he screams that it’s time for MORTAL KOMBAT (32:20)!

Before closing up shop, the new crew of four answer some heat about songs they left out regarding the best television theme songs (60:00). This turns into the best WWE entrance song, naturally.

  • Super Duds

    Our crew of three turned into a crew of four for this episode! The boys start with soccer and somehow end up at... Toy Story?! 

    Welcome to the show, Allan the Soccer Expert! He helps the boys discuss the debunked (and defunct) Super League and some Chelsea F.C. (2:00). After that chat finishes up, the boys move elegantly onto the best theme song made for a TV series (19:00). This naturally makes us wonder, “What happened to Will Smith?” Chaps thinks Mr. Smith’s career has gone downhill (24:00). Oh yeah, have you ever cried over a cartoon? Well, these boys sure have (31:00). Time for a the battle of the franchises as Harry Potter takes on Toy Story (36:00). Sticking with Disney, the crew has a nice debate about the “The Falcon and the Winter Solider” (41:00). And lastly, as we all by now know, Jake Paul did something we did not expect and it forced us to talk about him for yet another week, rounding it out (60:00). 

    So, you know, get ready for another episode with lots of talk but absolutely no instructions!

  • Stormin' Norman

    Somehow, we are back. Better still, we’re allowed to release yet another episode that needs no instructions

    Well, a favorite caller of ours joins us for the ENTIRE episode. Yes, Mr. 7-6 himself was in the house. We survived the white people music segment last week, so we naturally finish off the controversial subject this week (3:00). The Big O and Dean kick Chaps out of the call to discuss The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (9:00), which leads to a conversation about some amazing high school drama tv shows: The OC and One Tree Hill (17:15). Mr. 7-6 asks the question, “What athlete would you like to see be able to continue their career that was shortened by injury?” (32:00) Chaps responds with, “Would you rather buy a country or an island?” This obviously leads to a talk about older gentleman and how they can outdrink anyone...and then kick your ass on the golf course (47:00). The Big O doesn't exactly like Bet 365 anymore (55:08). The guys break down the Jake Paul and Ben Ben Askren and, in hindsight, Dean absolutely nailed it (61:02). 

    We are back. For now. Still living life with no instruction needed.

  • Cougar Town

    Well, depending on the reaction to a certain segment on this week’s episode, it may be our last...

    Long before the controversial segment, we start the episode with Wrestlemania while Chaps and Dean relive pre-covid wrestling weekends (3:40). Dean, who has just recently moved into his new apartment, seems to be losing all his furniture. With Dean’s mic on mute The Big O breaks down the moving crew (9:00). Dean and Chaps give updates on the stories of the previous week (12:30). Wrestling seemed to stay on the mind because the Big O asks Chaps and Dean what wrestlers remind them of each other (21:15).

    Another week, and yet another controversy for Barstool that revolves around sex tapes and depositions (27:00). Chaps seems to have a lot on the mind when it comes to Dan Le Batard and Jemele Hill (43:45). We ring the ten bells for DMX (57:00). And then the part that may end our podcast forever... 

    A conversation on entrance music, for wrestling of course, quickly turns into white people music and the lack of seasoning on white people food. So if this is it, it was an awesome ride and we definitely rode it with no instructions needed.

  • Pickin Up Parents

    What a week! What a Holiday! What an episode! 

    Well, we start off the episode by getting another Big O big-time bet (1:00). The NCCA Women's basketball tournament has been amazing (6:30). Welcome to adulthood, Dean! He breaks down what he has done in the last couple days since his move and in becoming a full-fledged adult (9:00). Somehow we have brief sidebar to what English word is the most disgusting (11:00) and then we go back to Dean’s adulthood. One of the guys has some problems with his neighbors and the boys each have in the past as well (14:23). One of Chaps's kids had an accident... (29:00).
