Ep.46 | The Rain Runner, Fun Uncle Era, and Twin Telepathy, | August 11th, 2026

Summary:Jake and Alex are back after another packed summer weekend, starting with an unexpectedly wholesome encounter between two strangers running through a downpour. That somehow leads directly into Jake’s newest lifestyle change: joining the bidet community and discovering the invigorating power of what Alex dubs the “Sphincter Ice Plunge.”The brothers recap their fantasy football league’s WWE Royal Rumble draft lottery before realizing their twin powers are apparently back after showing up to a birthday party—and the podcast itself—in nearly identical outfits. From there, it’s a weekend of first birthdays, engagement parties, deer etiquette, Greek food, and embracing the “fun uncle” stage of life. Alex finally spills the details on a first date at Sassafras, while Jake tries unsuccessfully to sell him on Baldur’s Gate 3. They wrap with Ted Lasso, Alley Cats, summer movies, gaming streams, and a potential return to Going Yard’s sports rootsTimestamps0:00 – Big stretches, mattress crimes & twin shirts 2:30 – Morning workouts and the prison workout routine 7:00 – Jake goes running in a downpour 10:30 – Meeting the mysterious fellow rain runner 12:30 – AI DJ appreciation 16:00 – Jake enters the bidet life 18:30 – The “Sphincter Ice Plunge” 19:30 – Shoutout to Mitch & The Go Route21:00 – Fantasy football meets WWE Royal Rumble 24:00 – Alex’s suspicious Royal Rumble dominance 25:00 – Accidentally dressing like twins again 28:00 – Entering the Fun Uncle Era 29:30 – Rover takes over the one-year-old birthday party 32:30 – Alex’s future Dalmatian, Woofy 36:00 – The engagement party & an elite Greek food spread 39:30 – Five deer crash the engagement party 41:00 – Why you always bow to deer 43:00 – Smokers vs. vapers 45:00 – The secret garage whiskey crew 46:30 – The Instagram influencer takes the family photo 49:00 – Alex finally tells us about his first date 50:00 – Sassafras, $17 cocktails & the Penicillin 51:30 – The danger of dating someone who might listen to the podcast 53:30 – Is Alex about to become a sailor? 55:00 – What first dates are like in your 30s 58:30 – Jake ambushes Alex over falling asleep during Baldur’s Gate 31:00:30 – Why Baldur’s Gate 3 finally clicked 1:03:30 – Should Going Yard start streaming? 1:05:00 – Going Yard’s sports roots are coming back 1:05:30 – Ted Lasso returns 1:06:30 – Alex binges Alley Cats1:07:30 – Alex vs. the critics 1:11:30 – Summer movies & bringing back the double feature 1:16:30 – Taco Tuesday, homemade croutons & wrapping up 1:18:00 – Bribing listeners for guest spots#GoingYard #GoingYardPodcast #ComedyPodcast #BrotherPodcast #TwinBrothers #FantasyFootball #RoyalRumble #WWE #RunningInTheRain #FunUncle #FirstDate #Philadelphia #BaldursGate3 #TedLasso #PodcastLifehttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley
