Mark and Joe hit the 20-episode milestone with a mix of reflection, fresh ideas, and their signature banter. Mark kicks things off by recapping standout Rowbo moments and introducing a new workplace trend to watch: “quiet cracking,” the cousin of quiet quitting.

From there, things get lively as Joe dives into Cracker Barrel’s controversial marketing changes—what they got right, what they cracked, and why it matters. Then the guys tackle a serious topic: driving high and DUI enforcement. How do police actually measure impairment, and what gray areas still exist?

Finally, it wouldn’t be The Rowbo Show without exploring big-picture themes. From the rise of AI to spoofing and beyond, Mark and Joe set the stage for what’s next.

A celebration, a conversation, and a look forward—Episode 20 captures exactly what The Rowbo Show is all about.
