  • Episode 108: Go Birds!

    The Bucket Boys are trying something new this week, recording an episode while watching the Panthers take on the Eagles. What could possibly go wrong? Between questionable football bets, nonstop penalties, and Zak realizing he might have talked Gunnar into a terrible wager, the boys somehow manage to keep the conversation going. They also break down their latest studio upgrades, revisit some questionable Pinewood Derby strategies, and discuss why Gunnar and his wife keep getting mistaken for swingers. 

    Then it's into the bucket for movie extras, acting auditions, space travel, meteorites, terrifying deep-sea creatures, and why our brains insist on making us dream. Plus, the boys revisit the early days of AIM and internet chat rooms, debate what they'd most likely get arrested for, and discover that watching football while recording a podcast might not have been their greatest idea.

  • Episode 107: Sh*tty Ricky

    Gunnar is finally back, and apparently the podcast did better without him. The boys catch up on Gavin's trip to the state golf championship, Zak's nerve-racking best man speech, viral clips, bizarre AI posts on Facebook, and a comedy show where the audience refused to participate. Plus, they attempt to fix the studio equipment, debate sports bets, and consider starting a support group for people who don't know how to behave at comedy shows.

    Then the bucket takes things completely off the rails with the gayest fish, whether half a 5-Hour Energy lasts two and a half hours, four-day workweeks, the importance of boners to human civilization, and who would survive longer in a horror movie. Throw in irrational fears, Final Destination, and a guy who apparently ate lunch in a portable toilet, and you've got another ridiculous episode of The Bucket Boys Podcast.

  • Episode 106: Scrub Daddy

    Gunnar is out for another week, so Sonia is back in the studio with Zak, and things get weird fast. Between the Braves' playoff disappointment, ugly Crocs, celebrity crushes, lottery tickets, and dream houses from movies and TV, the two somehow end up debating how many hot dogs they could eat and whether sponges actually come from the ocean. 

    Things only get more ridiculous with moon landing conspiracies, fear of cruises, terrible dog names, disgusting office lunches, a microwave burrito disaster, and the question of whether Zak could successfully land an airplane. Plus, the countdown continues to Bucket Boys Live on October 24th!

  • Episode 105: Prince Charming

    Gunnar is out this week, so Sonia steps in with Zak and immediately takes over the Bucket Boys studio. The two recap a chaotic wedding weekend, Zak’s first best man speech, staying up until 3:30 in the morning, Sonia’s new Audi and tattoos.

    Then they hit the bucket for aliens, Joe Rogan, gay animals, goat yoga, terrifying childhood mascots, whether dinosaurs were actually giant birds, bringing extinct animals back to life, HOA Karen boot camp, disappointing your parents, and the possibility that Sonia’s Prince Charming has been sitting across from her the whole time.

  • Episode 104: Get a Hobby

    This week Gunnar decides Zak desperately needs a hobby that gets him out of the house, which turns into a full investigation of what Zak actually does for fun. Along the way, we get into cooling mattresses, panhandler turf wars, bird watching, ducks that may or may not fly, sports fandom, RadioShack nostalgia, and why every hobby Gunnar touches eventually becomes a job.  

    Then the bucket takes us through the smartest animals, dolphins protecting people from sharks, pigs playing video games, the Vietnam War, alternate history, million-dollar ideas that somebody else eventually invented, and McDonald’s slowly forcing everyone to order from a kiosk.

  • Episode 103: Afraid of Zoom

    The Bucket Boys finally do what Zak has been avoiding for months and record an episode over Zoom. That leads to old-school RadioShack nostalgia, ZipZaps, Fast & Furious cars, Pinewood Derby plans, a Sheetz joke that goes on way too long, and Gunnar calling the cops on one of the sketchiest drivers he’s encountered yet.

    Then we hit the bucket for the Fermi Paradox, aliens, Twizzlers, voting, unwanted hugs, bandwagon sports fans, and the undeniable fact that Patrick Mahomes has a weird voice. Plus, the first Bucket Boys Live is coming October 24 at Heroic Axe in Warrenton.

  • Episode 102: Premium Salt

    This week the Bucket Boys get into brewery adventures, Lil Wayne nostalgia, Wu Tang and Bone Thugs, getting attacked by wasps and yellow jackets, and the ongoing debate over whether Gunnar is actually a redneck. We also discover why his yard has become a luxury salt lick for the neighborhood deer before getting into things that are way more embarrassing than they should be, jobs you could probably do with zero training, and why proposing at somebody else’s wedding should be illegal.  

    Plus, dry weddings, vegans versus screaming plants, childhood rules that never made sense, strangers who desperately need an escape button, and the simple realization that sometimes you just don’t want to hang out with people.

  • Episode 101: Peachy Peachy

    The Bucket Boys are back to argue about cold weather, terrible handshakes, whether words stop sounding real if you say them too many times, and the importance of actually pronouncing people's names correctly. Then the bucket takes us through Sonic vs. Mario, the cinematic potential of Mortal Kombat, Caitlyn vs. Bruce, the best government agency, virgin brides, terrible car designs, and Zak officially committing to doing stand up at the Bucket Boys Live show.

  • Episode 100: No Hot Dogs?! w/ Chris Alan

    For episode 100, Chris Alan joins us to talk about The Rider, growing up in Rochester, spending 20 years in the military, family, getting older, and realizing how much of what you believed growing up eventually has to be unlearned. Naturally, that turns into old school gaming, GTA, robot uprisings, green carpet, tattoos, Tarantino movies, James Gandolfini, Keanu Reeves, and a whole lot of shit talking in between.

  • Episode 99: D***head of the Week

    This week turns into a full breakdown of terrible drivers, road rage, SAE vs. metric tools, Bigfoot, spray painted cars, dream 90s builds, hot dog rankings, and the growing realization that getting older means occasionally losing the battle with your own pants. Somewhere in there, we also announce the Bucket Boys live show and continue trying to bully Zak into doing stand up.
