In S2E16, we get into Robby selling off some of his LEGO collection, Ian’s house purchase and plans to hammer down the mortgage, and whether a five-pound steak challenge is actually doable. Along the way, Kai drops into the conversation, we talk family life, hard water, housework, legal weed, Ian’s productive day at work, Robby’s never-ending Mustang repairs, and one fly that refuses to leave him the hell alone.

In S2E15, we kick things off with Robby’s garage run-in with a rattlesnake and Slinky’s questionable attempt to claim the kill. From there, we get into gas prices and the proposed federal gas tax suspension, remember the freedom of riding bikes everywhere as kids, talk LEGO side hustles, APO shipping restrictions, and finish with an update on Ian’s house purchase—and Robby’s very subtle message for the current owners.

In this episode, we bounce from garage smoke, bong mishaps, and random weekend plans into a surprisingly real conversation about retirement, Social Security, taxes, and whether people should catch a break after working their whole lives. We also get into insurance headaches, hail damage, car plans, mystery construction next door, missed Wing Wednesday, future road trips, and the usual mix of family updates and random bullshit that somehow becomes a full conversation.

In S2E13, we bring on Niko, aka Bean, and get into life after the military, work travel, living out in Georgia, raising ducks, and trying to balance a normal life with expensive car habits. We bounce through gas prices, EV frustration, Supras, GTR dreams, daily drivers, home projects, and the usual random turns into property, animals, retirement plans, and figuring out how much we really want to keep working. It’s another laid-back guest episode that feels like old friends catching up and talking shit about life, cars, and everything in between.

In S2E12, we bring on our friend and former coworker John Sweeney for a catch-up on life after the military. We get into retirement not going quite as planned, ending up back in management, running a gym, family plans, VA education benefits, moving after the kids are grown, and the usual random turns into chickens, goats, property taxes, drinking, and “time travel” stories. It’s a laid-back guest episode that feels more like old friends catching up than anything formal — which is exactly why it works.

In S2E11, we start off catching up while Robby is making the long drive from Texas to Oregon, talking trucks, tuners, dry lake beds, road fatigue, and the kind of random back-and-forth that comes naturally with us. Around the 10-minute mark, the audio has other plans, so the episode turns into a rougher, more one-sided ride than we intended. It’s a little glitchy, a little cut off, but still part of the fun of recording in real time while life is happening.

In S2E10, we bounce from storm weather and tornado watches into dog drama, parking lot stupidity, eyebrow waxing, government surveillance, and the usual completely normal turns our conversations take. We get into Slinky escaping the gate, whether backing into a parking spot needs a blinker, random news and AI rabbit holes, dog breeds, and the kind of off-the-rails back-and-forth that somehow keeps the whole thing moving. It’s chaotic, funny, and very much us.

In S2E9, we bounce between storm season, tornado watches, flooded buildings, muddy dogs, and the kind of everyday chaos that somehow turns into a full conversation. We also get into work downtime, mower repairs, overgrown grass, Lego side hustles, whatnot selling, and the weird little routines that make up real life. It’s a laid-back episode full of random detours, backyard nonsense, and the usual back-and-forth that keeps us rolling.

In S2E8, we fight through a little technical chaos after part of the audio decides not to cooperate, but we still manage to cover a weirdly solid mix of topics. We get into spam calls, bank rates, random financial thoughts, weather, old memories, Lego builds, editing, backyard wildlife, scrap metal, and the usual side tangents that take on a life of their own. Even with the glitch, it still feels like us — half catching up, half wandering off into whatever comes up next.

In S2E7, we catch up on everything that’s changed over the last couple of years — retirement, moving, new jobs, side hustles, and the weird turns life has taken since the first run of the podcast. From there, we drift into house drama, Bush League updates, the legendary backyard phallus, suspicious headlines, insider trading talk, and a few conspiracy-leaning rabbit holes that take the conversation in exactly the direction you’d expect from us. It’s part life update, part chaos, and part “how the hell did we get here?” in the best way.
