Ep.33| The New York City Trip, Colbert Show, and Danny Rads| April 22nd, 2026

🎙️ Show NotesWe’re back. No guests, no side quests—just the two of us—and somehow this NYC trip turned into way more than we bargained for!We both head into the city, do the whole thing: Staten Island ferry, a random Irish bar with a $500 whiskey we absolutely did not buy (but will be back for in 2029), and then the Daniel Radcliffe one-man show, which was honestly incredible. Full audience participation, sock puppet-level commitment—the whole deal.Alex has his cinematic train ride moment immediately snapped by pure New York chaos, I’m in the hotel room questioning the building’s structural integrity for no reason, and then we meet up, get a little too lathered, and try to navigate Times Square like it’s Mario Kart.Then somehow we end up at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert—Alisha fully hooking it up—backstage, on stage, rooftop, the whole thing. It felt fake, honestly.There’s also Alex accidentally becoming a real estate guy for 20 minutes, a $5 beer/shot/hot dog situation that got out of hand quickly, and a subway ride home that reminded us… yeah, this is New York.Just us catching up, bouncing around, and trying to remember the order any of this actually happened in.⏱️ Chapters00:00 – Back to the Dynamic DuoNo guest this week—just catching up and teeing up the NYC trip.01:00 – NYC Plans & Colbert SetupWhy we ended up in the city and what we had lined up.02:00 – Word of the Day & Early Tangents“Jouska,” “loquacious,” and classic off-the-rails energy.05:30 – Stand-Up ThrowbacksOld bits, edgy jokes, and comedy nostalgia.10:00 – Staten Island Ferry & Travel RealizationHow easy NYC actually is from PA—and first stops.12:00 – Irish Bar & $500 WhiskeyDead Rabbit, dollar bills on the wall, and future plans.22:00 – Staten Island & School of Rock MomentLisa’s college + unexpected movie connection.28:00 – Broadway Show with Daniel RadcliffeWildly interactive one-man show experience.41:00 – Alex’s Train Ride Reality CheckPeaceful vibes → immediate NYC chaos.43:00 – Dinner Meetup & Train DramaFriends arrive late after a tunnel scare.47:00 – Times Square (Lathered Up)Navigating crowds like Mario Kart.55:00 – Late Night Hockey ComebackUnexpected Buffalo Sabres hype.1:00:00 – Fake Real Estate Career BeginsAlex accidentally sells himself as a lender.1:03:00 – Central Park Morning & Bird AppPokémon Go… but for birds.1:10:00 – Rudy’s Bar & $5 All-American SpecialBeer, shot, hot dog—things escalate fast.1:13:00 – The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ExperienceVIP access, warm-up comic, and backstage tour.1:22:00 – Rooftop Drinks & Wrap-UpEnding the NYC run on a high note.1:25:00 – Subway Characters & Classic NYC MomentsStrangers bonding over chaos.1:30:00 – Philly Sports Talk (Sixers + Eagles Draft)Slash Bros, optimism, and draft strategy.🔥 Hashtags#GoingYard #NYCTrip #StephenColbert #DanielRadcliffe #Broadway #TimesSquare #StatenIslandFerry #ComedyPodcast #PodcastLife #BarStories #TravelStories #BehindTheScenes #LateShow #NYCVibes #Sixers #EaglesDraft #PhillySports #FunnyPodcast #Storytelling #PodcastClipshttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley
