The Bucket Boys Podcast

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Gunnar and Zak figure out their love languages, call Gunnar’s wife in the middle of the show to fact check the relationship, and somehow end up debating parenting, psychics, fake accents, court jesters, Boy Scouts, prison reform, and whether the president is really just America’s designated “vibes guy.” Plus, Miss Cleo, terrible fortune tellers, funerals for people nobody liked, and the realization that being a medieval comedian may have been the worst gig imaginable.

Mike Oddo joins the Bucket Boys this week for a chaotic episode that somehow covers baseball road trips, Philly stories, Pokémon nostalgia, passive aggressive coworkers, kitchen disasters, sketchy warranties, and why modern cars seem determined to break the moment the warranty expires. Along the way the guys debate minor league baseball names, cooking tips, bizarre viral videos, and whether buying an old car might actually be the smarter move.

This week starts with an incredible story as Gunnar shares how his son Gavin and two teammates jumped into a lake to help rescue a family after their kayaks capsized. From there we get into sign language, barbershop etiquette, bizarre public encounters, WNBA drama, the best bears of all time, and why being called a "mother ass" might be the funniest insult ever.

The Bucket Boys kick things off by retiring the iconic boat horn before spiraling into Walmart greeters, receipt checkers, loud public whistlers, overcoats, leather jackets, and the everyday annoyances that somehow become full-blown debates. Along the way, they revisit old catchphrases, conspiracy theories, and the strange things people do in public. 

The second half takes a surprisingly deep turn into money, housing, unemployment, work-life balance, and what it actually means to "make it." From personal assistants and first-class flights to side hustles, golf, and why everyone's financial ceiling looks different, it's one of the show's most thoughtful (and funniest) conversations yet.
