Elliott Loves LA Whole Foods + Ripped Gym Shorts | The Do-Over Podcast

Season 2, Episode 4 comes out of The Grogg’s Studio with Drew Hyatt and Barbress Jess bouncing between real life, internet brain-rot, and the kind of group chat energy that only gets worse once Elliott calls in.First up, the studio’s landlord seems convinced the podcast setup is something way more suspicious, the spam calls are relentless, and Jess explains why throwing up is basically her personal horror movie. From there, it turns into a full-on food debate (oysters get absolutely cooked), then the bachelor party question hits: is it even a bachelor party without strippers?Elliott jumps in mid-drive with peak “I live in LA now” behavior, including an over-the-top review of a Whole Foods that’s basically an indoor adult playground. Then he tops it with a gym story that ends with ripped shorts, a quick self-roast spiral, and the group doing what they do best: making it worse.After the break, the conversation swings hard into modern dating expectations, “push present” logic, and a viral TikTok idea about paying a “date prep deposit” that Drew and Jess call exactly what it sounds like. From there it turns into workplace politics, why loud political talk is bad for business, and a bigger rant about how social media amplifies the worst voices. The back half gets even looser: K-pop curiosity (Jennie/Blackpink), Pokemon card theft stories, what people would actually steal if they snapped, and why nobody should ever be doing anything in a Best Buy aisle.Sponsor shoutouts in this episode include Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub and Frank Sierra Finish Carpentry / Sierra Door Supply, plus a quick Patreon mention for supporting the show.00:00:07 – Morning intro at The Grogg’s Studio00:01:21 – Landlord “Ron thinks it’s porn” theory00:03:18 – Spam calls and the phone-life spiral00:04:40 – TikTok push and chasing views00:06:18 – Eddie’s out sick and the puke phobia00:08:03 – Childhood trauma story: dad’s oyster disaster00:14:14 – Work schedules and roller rink birthday plans00:15:17 – Bachelor party debate: do strippers “count”?00:17:01 – Elliott calls in while driving00:21:07 – Elliott’s “best Whole Foods ever” breakdown00:25:20 – Drew’s stripper bachelor party story (and why he’s sober)00:34:09 – LA Fitness trainer talk and “cardio is cooked”00:36:51 – Elliott rips his shorts at the gym00:40:44 – Group chat text gets read on-air00:45:11 – Break: Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub sponsor spot00:46:51 – Push present debate and “what’s the gift?”00:49:28 – “Courted” dating app and date-prep deposit clip00:53:19 – Internet grifts, OnlyFans logic, and using desperate men00:56:33 – Workplace politics: keep it out of business01:12:09 – Groceries are insane: “go get the hammers”01:14:26 – Break: Frank Sierra Finish Carpentry / Sierra Door Supply01:16:40 – K-pop turn: Jennie (Blackpink) rabbit hole01:20:05 – Pokemon card theft wave and armed robberies01:20:45 – What would you steal if you loved it enough?01:21:40 – Jess admits the cup obsession (Stanley/Owala)01:25:14 – The Best Buy story01:26:36 – Firearms training and “hostage target” drills01:30:14 – Contact info, socials, and wrap#TheDoOverPodcast #DoOverPodcast #Podcast #ComedyPodcast #FresnoPodcast #GroggsIrishPub #BachelorParty #WholeFoods #TikTokTalk #DatingApps #WorkplaceCulture #Blackpink #Kpop #PokemonCards #GunRange#TheDoOverPodcast #ComedyPodcast #MentalHealthTalk #LifeTalk #PopCulturePodcast
