Our plans for a new episode this week unfortunately fell victim to our personal lives. To tide you over until Monday here is a collection of bloopers, off air material and moments behind the scenes that have made our show something we look forward to every week. Please at least enjoy the sweet Umbrellas track. Music: “Your Exit” by Umbrellas.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we celebrate the joyous news that Nicholas and Sarah are expecting their first child in October!!! Nicholas picks Addison’s brain and shares some of the difficulties he’s experienced in the week’s leading up to the first sonogram. How did Nick’s father explain “the birds and the bees” to him? What were Addison’s biggest challenges leading up to the birth of his daughter? Exactly how many times will the guys cry in one episode? In the journal segment, Addison shares an emotional piece inspired by his daughter and Nicholas shares an incredible story from a listener who is taking major strides in conquering the demons of self harm/cutting. It’s a range of emotions, a lot of laughs and a toast to every man fortunate enough to hear the words “You’re going to be a father!” in their lifetime. It’s an episode that delivers like Pizza Hut’s “Bigfoot Pizza” in the 90’s!!!! Music: “Baby Powder” by Mac Lethal & Joe Good.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we examine what Nicholas experiences during spells of manic behavior and how it often abruptly disrupts his life. In this week’s journal segment, Addison shares a piece about realization and heartbreak. Nicholas details some negative thoughts during a manic week and then says goodbye to a departed friend whom passed away in October 2019. Vicious cycles, bad relationships, tanking a business, Addison makes a mid life crisis purchase and Nicholas spends $80 on an Ernest dvd. It’s safe to say we’re talking a little bit of everything this week. It’s the only podcast that does manic Monday’s better than “The Bangles”. Music: “Middle of the Ocean” by Brett Gretzky.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” Addison shares some true feelings after a topsy turvy week of lows. Nicholas recites a poem entitled “Song Cliches” telling of a toxic past relationship. The Q and A portion of the show brings to light some topics we didn’t expect. Do you believe in reincarnation? What do you think of alternative medicine? What in the hell is the “crucial” mosh? All of this plus a terrible story that was a little too over the top to make it in the final draft of Nick’s book. You guys had some great questions and today we will answer them all! Music : “THE SOUND” by The Plot in You.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we examine more journal entries from years past and all the random content it entails. Hear how Kyle Roberts innovated and ruined the game of kickball at the same time. Hear a fifteen year old movie review of Tom Cruise’s “War of the Worlds” as written by a younger Addison Morgan. Why was Nicholas on shrooms at the post office? Why did Addison pick on a girl named “Tallie”? Why did the band “Texas is on Fire” think Nicholas was a dipshit for talking to them? Why does Addison only know one song by the Lyndsey Diaries? Did Nick get caught by the cops in the cemetery after dark or did he escape? All this and more on this totally random look back at the days this podcast was built upon. Music: “Time Bomb” by Prof.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we celebrate the end of the “Kansas City Curse” as the Chiefs are now Super Bowl champions!!! We read our journal entries for the week and find a bit of enlightenment from what we chose to disclose. We discuss the true meaning and misconceptions relating to the term “toxic masculinity” and the impact it has on society. Do you often wear Tapout shirts to bars and try to fight someone after two beers? Do you break up with the same woman often and then manipulate and string her along just because you don’t want her to be with someone else? Do you have a terrible faux hawk and a history of punching holes in the drywall? If so, you may want to tune in and find out why you are like this. Dedicated to all of the brave women who found the strength to leave their toxic exes. Music: “Boys Can Cry” by Meg and Dia.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we are talking about relationship codependency and all it entails. We implement a new weekly segment in which we each share a weekly journal entry with our audience. Addison’s journal brings a quote that hits close to home. Nicholas reads of his struggles to create art in the public eye and the anxiety it forces. We discuss many forms of relationship codependency and share our personal experiences on both ends of the spectrum. It’s the first in depth episode of 2020 and as expected it gets incredibly real, brutally honest, and endlessly open. Music: “Hard to Breathe” by Hawthorne Heights.

On this episode of “Tall, Dark and Random” we celebrate the first Kansas City Chiefs super bowl trip in our lifetime! We discuss Nick’s big heroic moment of putting out a fire, we roast our friends ala Michael Scott and somewhere in there we watch “The Office” It’s the most fun a throwaway episode can be!!! Music: “Tradition (Hail to the Chiefs) by Nicholas Grooms.

On this extremely late edition of “Tall, Dark and Random” we examine a week of follies, injuries and human interactions that have rattled the body, mind and soul of Nicholas Grooms. From blows to the head to strangers farting at the urinal, life has veered our host into the realm of a tumultuous train wreck and set the week so off course we were unable to properly prepare for an actual episode. Hear about Nick’s week of turmoil as the guys also take a few minutes to examine why the official Hall & Oates Instagram page is lurking all our posts. “I can’t go for that...no can do.” Music: “Turn Those Clapping Hands Into Angry Balled Fists” by Against Me!

On this edition of “Tall, Dark and Random” we take a look at how Americans constantly feel inclined to get angry behind the wheel and how that anger often leads to violent skirmishes, car accidents or even fatal confrontations. Have you ever been so pissed off you followed someone for miles just to flip them the bird? Have you ever laid on the horn at some dipshit trying to text and drive? Have you ever let the rigors of the simple drive to work ruin your entire day? We examine our own personal accounts of road rage, read some Reddit stories and give you some professional tips and information on how you can be less of a jackass while operating your motor vehicle. Plus, a very special road rage PSA from Bulk Hogan!!! It’s a road rage spectacular on our very first episode of the month, year and decade! Information and facts provided by Geico.
