How clean is clean… really?

This episode dives headfirst into personal hygiene confessions, cleaning habits nobody talks about, and the strange unspoken rules we all follow behind closed doors.

From the lost art of the panty raid to unexpected nude encounters and weird places we've all somehow ended up naked, the conversation drifts through embarrassment, nostalgia, and brutally honest self-reflection.

Along the way, the panel debates cleaning standards, generational differences, and the quiet realization that everyone thinks their own habits are “normal”… until they say them out loud.

This episode also marks the Curious Cocktail debut of Katie and Adam, and they absolutely rocked the mics, jumping in seamlessly and delivering some of the night’s funniest and most memorable moments.

A classic Curious Cocktail episode...raw, hilarious, slightly uncomfortable, and completely honest.

Dave Ramsey says lasting relationships depend on alignment on four pillars: money, kids, in-laws, and religion. In this episode, we put all four under a microscope...not in theory, but through real stories, uncomfortable hypotheticals, and brutally honest debate.

We talk about how in-laws quietly shape marriages, why oversharing relationship problems can poison family dynamics, and how priorities shift when parents, partners, and children collide. Then things escalate into the ultimate moral stress test: a genie, a $50 million offer, and one night that could change everything!

Then the ultimate moral dilemma appears...

Would you protect your family at any cost?
Would you lie to preserve peace or protect your children?
Would you trade integrity for security or loyalty for truth?

Underneath the jokes, bachelor-party chaos, and wild hypotheticals is the real question this episode keeps circling:

When family loyalty and personal integrity collide… where’s your line?

What starts as a debate about being late quickly spirals into work etiquette, anxiety, and the unspoken rules around start times, leave times, and “one-time” mistakes.

From there, the conversation drifts into childhood chaos: schoolyard pranks that went too far, mistaken identity disasters, twin confusion, first-time drinking stories, beer goggles, and the kind of unsupervised moments that sound funny… until you really think about them.

Along the way, we unpack fashionably late logic, petty workplace revenge, radio-request trauma, and the unexpected origin story of the Shenanigans Paddle, proving once again that one story always leads to ten more.

A classic Curious Cocktail Podcast episode... nostalgic chaos, honest laughter, and conversations that refuse to stay on topic.

What starts as an accidental FaceTime from an ice bath somehow spirals into a full-blown debate about profanity, comedy, censorship, and why certain words hit harder than others.

This episode drifts through fridge organization, vegan lifestyles, free speech, and comedy legends, all while unpacking the difference between dry humor and juicy humor. We question who decided which words are “bad,” why context matters more than vocabulary, and whether swearing at the right moment enhances comedy… or crosses a line.

It's a Dave Chapelle/Eddie Murphy vs Jim Gaffigan/Nate Bargatze tag-team battle royale...and everyone's got their opinion on who's the clear winner! Who's corner are you in??

Along the way, language gets compared to hamburgers with no condiments, comedians who swear with purpose, and one thing becomes clear: words are tools, and it’s all about how you use them.

For possibly the first time ever, the panel is divided big-time on a Curious Cocktail topic, with strong opinions flying in every direction.

20th Episode milestone!!

Starts with a simple question about movie logic, and immediately goes off the rails lol.

We spiral through TV myths and adrenaline science, a Halloween prank involving a Joe Goldberg costume and a very convincing front-door scare. From there, things escalate into miracle remedies that definitely aren’t medical advice, shoulder injuries caused by cinematic confidence, and a phone call to a doctor that required some creative storytelling.

Along the way, we hit poker-night etiquette (when not to cash out), strip-game hypotheticals, trucking legends who never slept, back-road pill lore, underage liquor store missions, and the unspoken rules of convoys, log books, and CB radio life.

We close by drifting into cult documentaries, celebrity wellness rabbit holes, and why every cult eventually seems to be about the same thing...

A classic Curious Cocktail Podcast episode: Great stories, loose logic, misinformation corrected in real time, and laughs that make you feel as if you were there!

This episode spirals from innocent schoolyard games and cootie catchers into doppelgänger run-ins, dating habits shaped by ’90s movies, and a miracle ointment that can create humans....and apparently heal shoulder injuries!

Along the way, the conversation drifts through mistaken identities, first crush logic, awkward social rules we somehow agreed to, and a few awkward blast-from-the past stories, involving a homecoming game, WAY too much alcohol, ending in a personal ride home in a squad car.

It’s reckless nostalgia, questionable science, and memories that shaped the fabric of our future selves. The cherry on top was a surprise guest appearance by the witty and wishful Melly Wahlberg.

What starts as a brutal party-season hangover turns into a full recap of New Year’s, birthdays, a history lesson of pranks, and resurrecting old "XXX" business models

There’s a night passed out on a cold floor, fireworks downtown, near-heart attacks on a 15th-floor balcony, a growing suspicion that the universe is obsessed with the number 69, and the realization that alcohol might finally be losing its grip on our very own Dr. Diamond!

Along the way, the group dives into:

• Sleeping on floors vs. survival instincts

• Height fears, stunt legends, and questionable confidence

• Food comas, drunk math, and ChatGPT meal planning

• Gym pranks that may have accidentally chiseled the perfect hip flexors

• Old-school Visine tricks, payphone fantasies, and business ideas that absolutely shouldn’t work (but might)

By the end, resolutions are declared, addictions questioned, boundaries tested, and everyone agrees on one thing: some eras don’t end quietly!

What starts as a Festivus recap, grievance boards, aluminum poles, name tags, and party chaos, quickly spirals into a brutally honest conversation about prostitution, trust, protection, and the lies people tell themselves.

From truck-stop stories and Sobeys-bag legends to dating logic that makes zero sense, we unpack why strangers feel dangerous… until they suddenly don’t. Add farm stories, electric fences, questionable medical exams, and a reality check on how people actually assess risk.

By the end, myths are exposed, comfort zones disappear, and nobody’s pretending common sense is common anymore!

Shenanigans Pub hosted its first-ever wedding — and somehow it went flawlessly.

This episode starts with a full recap of the night: cinematic entrances, prank speeches, and whisper-challenge chaos. From there, things take a sharp turn.

We break down self-defense myths, gun vs knife logic, real boxing humblings, and why most people wildly overestimate their ability to survive a fight. Add in hunting stories, American gun culture shock, and a brutally honest take on what actually keeps you safe.

It’s weddings, weapons, and reality checks...served the Curious Cocktail way!

What starts with an innocent game of Uno...ends with someone naked, a casino visit, and Ryan looking like he could be blinded with dental floss!

This week, the group unpacks libido mismatches, how to counter their effects, and how to use compromise as a tool. We debate if being good at dancing equals being good in bed, if swinging saves relationships, and discover the shocking country with the highest sex frequency....(hint hint...it's not in North America).

By the end, it’s all confessions, curiosity, and the kind of chaos that sparks a future debate...should the ladies start their own union!
