Bret documents his journey to finish school while dealing with a severe pain in the ass, and the boys ponder why it is so difficult for “abled” individuals to fathom the importance of a functional elevator.

The No Excuses boys gather round the mic to talk about assistive technology, the need for haircuts, Andy’s quest to do snow angels, and the redundancies of tearaway pants for wheelchair users.

 Bret is back to school as the boys talk New Years resolutions, awkwardness around disability representation in the workplace, and Andy’s ability to walk on a treadmill, let alone walk at all.

After an unscheduled, an unofficial break, the boys are back to check in with the entire Internet. Brett and Andy continue to document their scholastic journey, and blossoming friendship, that leaves Chad out of the loop. Also, Andy and Chad rap about fitness from home, remote teaching, and Covid in schools.

Andy rides solo this week, welcoming a close friend, Jay Perry, founder of Friends With Hearts - a global community of friends working together to restore the magic of Christmas to families in need.

They reminisce of they’re trip to Haiti, as well as discuss so societal norms and labels,

and what compassion and humanity looks like at its core.

The No  Excuses boys gather around the microphone for the fiftieth time! Andy is nearing the end of his scholastic journey, while Bret gets ready to start his own. Also, Chad returns to playing gigs for actual people (and not live-streams), and Bret ponders a move to Latvia, but not really.

The No Excuses boys celebrate a benchmark episode by talking about things that at least one of them have never experienced, like pressure sores, and being openly mocked by teenagers.

The “No Excuses” team, gather round the mic for the second time in as many weeks to talk about Andy’s continued journey into scholastics. Also, Bret ponders his next step (even though he can’t step), and we discuss the topic of representation in, of all things, Paw Patrol.

After an unintentional (but much needed) break, the guys are back to talk about how much things have changed since the last time gathered around the mic. Andy and Chad are back to school (one as a teacher, and one a student), and Bret gives up cottage life to go back to work and carry a bucket on his lap...

The No Excuses boys welcome special guest Shaun Radigan. Shaun is an Educational Assistant and colleague of Chad’s. He’s a pretty decent dude who’s accomplished a lot in his life, including surviving a plane crash. Seriously! Shaun tells his incredible story of perseverance, and overcoming adversity.
