January 05 Episode 190 - Pickle & Boot Shop, the Champagne of Podcasting
In this penultimate freebie—thrown together amid holiday chaos—the guys blame high prices and bad weather on the president (Obama still takes heat), Joe sips and praises Michigan's maple-finished Ice Storm Whiskey, and Reese deals with family roasts and cat bites. Light tangents on kids, gifts, and life stuff fill the low-energy void as they admit "we got nothing tonight." Next week's finale gets a vague promise of effort ("might not be good, but we'll try harder")—no big guests, just more of the usual. One week from the Irish goodbye, it's mostly sweet relief with Miller High Life nostalgia—the Champagne of Beers for the Champagne of Podcasts. We hope you hate it.

December 15, 2025 Episode 189 - Podcast Boners & Final Rambles
In this near-end episode of Joe & Reese's Pickle & Boot Shop, the duo kicks off with five-second "ab" workouts and Reese's mustache cop perks before Joe recounts his trailblazing fight for roofing mustaches, tattoos, and beards (complete with a suspension and tattoo-removal orders). They roast bad Christmas movies like Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (but defend It's a Wonderful Life), dive into Reese's "band dad" phase and his kids' Five Iron Frenzy obsession, and ponder a last-gasp Steve Taylor guest spot. The Irish goodbye looms larger than ever. We hope you hate it.

November 16, 2025 Episode 188 - Night Wad Nights
In this near-final episode of Joe & Reese's Pickle & Boot Shop, the hosts lament unrecorded pre-show laughs and kids blasting Futurama before sharing "winged" desperation dinners: Reese's "night wad" nails the old food pyramid, while Joe's "turkey apples onions" skillet—later boosted with spuds—turned into a kid-requested birthday hit born from lean times. They rank podcasts, giving The Dollop's dark history lessons the edge over Stuff You Should Know's fact-heavy snoozes, and wonder if Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend could rescue the genre. We hope you hate it.

November 11, 2025 Episode 187 - Lot of Beef, Just a Lot of Meat
In this wheezing freebie homestretch episode of Joe & Reese's Pickle & Boot Shop, the duo slurps soup on-mic, spirals into a soup-stew-chili taxonomy war that ends with "Uncle Pete" meat smoothies for the jaw-wired-shut crowd, and debates Halloween costumes that'd get you fired from a nursing home. Reggie's ghostly foot-washing antics haunt the chat, while they roast their own half-assed show notes and pivot to ska nostalgia with Pietasters anthems that deserve a Spotify shuffle. As they bicker over donating "Patreon riches" to convert folks via Pee-wee and Barbie marathons, it's clear the Irish goodbye can't come soon enough—especially with a supermoon rising like Reese's questionable moon. We hope you hate it.

November 11, 2025 Episode 186 - Booger Sugar Blues
Freebies - here's the news you've been dodging: this is the first non-paywalled episode where Joe and Reese drop the bomb—they're wrapping the podcast by January 1st (or possibly ghosting it at Thanksgiving, true to their history of abrupt exits). Patronizers heard it in the last bonus episode; the rest of you are just catching up. With holidays around the corner, let's be honest—these two are more likely to get lost in a Temu rabbit hole or a cartoon marathon than stick to a schedule. It's time to accept this rambling ride is winding down. In this near-final episode of Joe & Reese's Pickle & Boot Shop, Joe and Reese gripe about cat litter disasters and a robot box that apps your pet's poops, then pivot to Detroit's giant corned beef "Dinty Moores," Reuben vs. Rachel showdowns, and Temu deals. We hope you hate it.

October 22, 2025 Episode 185 - The Spread Eagle Diaries
In today’s episode of the Pickle & Boot Shop, Reese reflects on the realities of co-parenting and navigating teenage emotions, drawing from recent family challenges and a personal story of past anger that reshaped his approach to relationships. Joe shares highlights from his anniversary trip to Michigan's Upper Peninsula and his renewed love for his state. The conversation turns deep to cycles of frustration, strategies for guiding kids through emotional expression and boundaries, and the role of self-awareness in breaking harmful patterns. We hope you like this one and maybe get something from it!

October 06, 2025 Episode 184 - Giblets on Crocs & Pitchy Notes
Yo, episode one-eighty-four, we back in the zone,
Joe and Reese, faded stars, whinin’ on the phone.
Talkin’ pickles, boots, gigs, they diss with a grin,
Tyler Childers, Elvis C, pitchy, can’t win.
Hare Krishnas droppin’ chants, these fools just smirk,
Stage sound’s trash, man, they vibe don’t work.
Joe’s got a roofin’ tale, too raw for the mic,
Propofol gum dreams, yeah, they trippin’ on spite.
Sarcasm drippin’, they flop, feelin’ low,
Two has-beens spittin’ in this sad-ass show.
Hope ya hate it, fo’ shizzle, this mess ain’t tight,
Tune in, diss our vibe, we’re done for the night.

September 28, 2025 Episode 183: Clumps, Chaos, and Catastrophe
Strap in for Episode 183, where Joe and Reese stumble through technical gremlins like they're broadcasting from a haunted Radio Shack. The duo dives deep into the glamorous world of cat litter, with Joe scooping enough clumps to rival a kitty crime syndicate and Reese ready to launch his deck-defiling felines into orbit. They toss in wild tangents about swanky podcast swag bags stuffed with iPhones and rollerblades, plus a bizarre nod to hot dog-whiskey concoctions that nobody asked for. It's a gloriously unhinged mess, and we hope you hate it.

September 17, 2025 Episode 182 - The Civil War Pregnancy Conspiracy
Episode 182 is basically a free community college biology class, only with more musket balls, jalapeño “meat donuts,” and crunchy socks. Joe and Reese debate whether Civil War gunfire can make babies, explain why shark eggs look like pure hatred, and identify the exact thigh-to-butt zone where human pheromones thrive. Along the way, Joe’s wrist injury forces him into full G.I. Joe mode while Reese dreams up a scholarship that’s worth less than the giant check it’s printed on. It’s science, stupidity, and snack food all rolled into one. We hope you hate it.
