Drew Hyatt and Edward Raus open Season 2, Episode 13 of Taps & Takes with a ridiculous story about a dog destroying a pair of expensive headphones, then roll straight into a packed mix of movie talk, gaming rumors, and sports takes. This episode moves from CinemaCon reveals and X-Men casting chatter to Angels dysfunction, NBA playoff predictions, Rory McIlroy’s Masters win, and the rise of sprinting phenom Gout Gout.

For new viewers, The Do-Over Podcast is a conversation-driven show built around smart, funny, fast-moving discussions, and Taps & Takes is the Friday pub-table version of that format. Recorded at Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub, this series gives Drew and Edward room to bounce between nerd news, movie debates, gaming culture, and sports without forcing it into a rigid format.

In this episode, the guys get into Switch 2 leak talk, a rumored Ocarina of Time remake, and why Nintendo diehards can be a very specific breed online. From there, they dig into the future of the MCU’s X-Men, CinemaCon first looks for major upcoming movies, whether studios reveal projects too early, and why Faces of Death should have been left alone. After the break, the show shifts into Angels chaos with a bizarre frozen yogurt scam story, NBA playoff picks with the Knicks and Thunder in focus, Rory McIlroy joining elite Masters company, and Gout Gout emerging as one of the most exciting young sprinters in the world.

Season 2, Episode 28 of The Do-Over Podcast brings Lady Orc into the studio with Drew Hyatt for a funny, loose, story-heavy episode that starts with Drew admitting he stayed up way too late binging Euphoria and trying to survive the morning after. Recorded from Grogg’s Studio North in Fresno, the conversation quickly turns into one of those episodes where TV, marriage, parenting, books, bald heads, sales stories, and internet nonsense all collide in the best way.

If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a long-form conversation show built around real stories, strong opinions, side tangents, and the kind of chemistry that makes a hangout feel worth listening to. Drew Hyatt leads this one with Lady Orc in studio, and the episode works because it never feels forced. It moves naturally from personal backstory into the random everyday stuff that becomes great podcast material when the people talking actually have history.

The centerpiece of this episode is Lady Orc finally telling the full story of how she met Orc while dating his roommate, why that situation could have gone badly, and how it eventually turned into a marriage that’s now lasted more than a decade. From there, Drew and Lady Orc get into camera nerves, reading during COVID, Harry Potter and Project Hail Mary, trying to get kids into books, Orc’s bald head, Drew’s real estate open-house rant about snooty people, getting treated like he’s too old to know anime at GameStop, the three-condiment debate, and a closing stretch of reaction clips and relationship talk.

Drew Hyatt and Darren are back for Season 2, Episode 27 of The Do-Over Podcast, joined by special guest Elliott Jams on a call-in from Southern California. Elliott checks in on life in Whittier, the missing-cat search for Trouble Girl, wedding planning, and what it’s really like working around the Angels as baseball season ramps up. From there, the episode rolls into stories about getting big timed in public, awkward real-life encounters, and the kind of random side conversations this show thrives on. If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a conversational comedy podcast built around real stories, current obsessions, unfiltered takes, and the kind of friend-group chemistry that can bounce from life updates to sports to food poisoning disasters in a matter of minutes. This is Season 2, Episode 27, recorded at Grogg’s STUDIO, with sponsor support from Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub. This episode starts with Elliott Jams calling in to talk about his new life, the Angels job, and the stress of balancing work, Santa Clara, wedding planning, and the ongoing search for Trouble Girl. The guys also get into the recent Angels brawl, Elliott’s first on-air segment, and the politics of sports media and social teams. After that, the conversation shifts into being “big timed” by people in public, including a brutal Costco story, workplace stories, and the weird social dynamics of being ignored when you know somebody. The second half gets even looser, with stories about Wingstop feeling dangerous for no reason, podcasters getting too full of themselves, Nate Diaz versus podcast muscle guys, Shane Gillis, Joe Rogan, and where Eddie disappeared to after getting wrecked by what sounds like food poisoning or norovirus. Drew also tells a brutal hospital story, the guys talk about getting older and turning into their parents, and the episode closes with reaction clips, alpha male nonsense, dating humor, anti-drone tech, and the usual Do-Over Podcast chaos.

Season 2, Episode 26 of The Do-Over Podcast drops Drew Hyatt and Edward Raus back inside Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub for another Taps & Takes episode, and this one moves exactly how the format should: fast, opinionated, and all over the map in the best way. The first half lives in nerd news, with the guys bouncing from Gremlins 3 and The Batman Part II to Disney’s Animorphs reboot, X-Men 97 speculation, Nintendo’s movie future, and why some franchises should be left alone for good. If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a conversation-first show built on honest reactions, not polished talking points. Taps & Takes is the branch of the show where Drew and Edward trade quick-hit takes on whatever they’re watching, following, or arguing about that week. In this episode, that means a real back-and-forth on movie reboots, a review of the new Super Mario movie, excitement around Marvel’s Darth Maul series, and a bigger question hanging over all of it: what deserves a sequel, and what should stay finished? The second half shifts gears without losing momentum. Royce jumps in with a full rant about vet bills, pet insurance, and how expensive it’s become just to take care of an animal you love. From there, Drew and Edward get into sports with March Madness winners, a Masters pick centered on Fresno’s own Bryson DeChambeau, a quick baseball check-in, and a longer closer on NBA tanking, the play-in problem, and why late-season basketball has turned into a mess. They wrap by teasing next week’s NFL Draft talk.

Jess is taking a break, so Drew Hyatt and Darren hold it down from Grogg’s Studio for a loose, funny, and unexpectedly honest episode that starts with Nintendo and Easter stories before turning into a real conversation about body count, dating standards, cheating, and the kind of advice that actually ruins relationships. This is Season 2, Episode 26 of The Do-Over Podcast.

If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a free-flowing conversation show where real-life stories, internet clips, relationship debates, and everyday chaos all end up in the same room. In this episode, Drew and Darren talk through Drew getting pulled back into Wind Waker, stories about being too high at the wrong time, Easter weekend with kids and family, backyard fence painting, stuffing eggs, cooking for everyone, and Drew’s brutal tire morning that turns into stories about sketchy cheap tires, bad road trips, and near disasters.

From there, the episode shifts into Drew’s sobriety, Darren getting roasted for his Starbucks order, and a long conversation about masculinity, body count, virginity, dating in high school, older partners, cheating, divorce, and what honest communication is supposed to look like inside a marriage. They also explain where Eduardo disappeared to, react to a run of internet clips, and close by plugging Pop Fiction at Magus Brewing.

Season 2, Episode 25 of The Do-Over Podcast finds Drew Hyatt and Darren joined by Amber from Reaper Clean for a conversation that goes from biohazard cleanup and hoarding cases to horrible bosses, career breaking points, and the money struggles that shape people. Amber explains what crime scene cleaning actually involves, shares stories from the field, and gives a real look at the kind of work most people never see up close.

If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a long-form conversation show built around real stories, sharp tangents, work talk, life setbacks, and whatever the room naturally locks into. In this episode, the conversation moves from Amber’s Fresno cleanup work and a brutal hoarding job story into Drew’s real estate story about helping her land the “vampire house,” then pivots into a full stretch of stories about telling off bosses, rude customers, and the moments people finally hit their limit.

The second half gets more personal. Amber talks about rebuilding her life and business while taking on family responsibility, Darren looks back on payday loans, pawning valuables, and a Christmas miracle in Las Vegas, and Drew breaks down the brutal reality of commission life, including the tiny first real estate check that nearly made him question everything.

Season 2, Episode 24 of The Do-Over Podcast brings Drew Hyatt, Barbress Jess, and Darren back into the room for a wide-ranging episode that starts loose and funny, then turns serious fast. Jess is back, the group checks in on how she’s doing, and the early conversation runs through her cabbage detox, a very real Filet-O-Fish craving, relationship logic, body image, and the weird ways couples try to be supportive when someone is struggling.

For new viewers, The Do-Over Podcast is an unfiltered conversation show where personal life, internet culture, parenting, local talk, and whatever is stuck in the group’s head that day all end up on the table. In this episode, that means Drew reacting to the surprise news that both of his daughters qualified for GATE screening, followed by a long discussion about discipline, strict parenting, coach pitch sportsmanship, soft parenting, and what it actually takes to raise good humans without losing the balance.

The back half shifts into a heavy reaction to the Taylor Frankie Paul video tied to Mormon Wives and the Bachelorette fallout, with the hosts focusing on the child being put in danger and the adults around that situation failing. From there, Drew breaks down what he thinks the manosphere grift actually is, from fake empowerment and “single side monogamy” to crypto hustles, fake science, and online radicalization. They close with a run of reaction clips, old weed stories, and a blunt real estate rant about part-time agents, “the list,” and why bargain representation can cost people real money.

Season 2, Episode 11 of Taps & Takes moves fast, but the center of this episode is a full spoiler review of Project Hail Mary. Drew Hyatt and the crew burn through a stack of nerd news first, then lock in on why the movie works, how it compares to the book, what got left out, and why the ending hits so hard.

The back half keeps the pace up with Royce’s Words, where a story about Reacher star Alan Ritchson getting into a motorcycle-related altercation turns into a bigger conversation about consequences and people forgetting where the line is.

Season 2, Episode 23 of The Do-Over Podcast starts messy and stays entertaining. Drew Hyatt, Barbress Jess, and Val open with internet issues, a brutal Walmart shirt roast, and a grocery store interaction that turns into a conversation about holistic medicine, parenting, and how weird first impressions can get. From there, Jess gets real about depression, PMDD, religious trauma, burnout, and trying to finally get help without losing herself in the process.

If you’re new here, The Do-Over Podcast is a loose, funny, conversation-first show where the hosts bounce between real life, relationship talk, internet culture, and whatever ridiculous story takes over the room.

After Drew tells the story of getting violently sick and missing work for what sounds like one of his roughest recent days, the episode pivots into a long breakdown of Netflix’s Into the Manosphere and the broader world of alpha-male influencers. Jess and Drew go in on the grift, the anti-woman rhetoric, Fresh and Fit, Andrew Tate, Nick Fuentes, Wes Watson, and the way internet outrage gets monetized. The back half swings into short king logic, height jokes, relationship incentives, chores, housework, sourdough starter talk, Chuck Norris jokes, old kickboxing reaction clips, and a preview of the next episode with Valerie O’Brien McMaster Kirkpatrick returning alongside Amberlynn from Reaper Queen and Porch Fest
