Recorded on New Year’s Eve: Patreon Launch & Full 2025 Wrap-Up Rant

from The Turning: Down The Rabbit Hole · host Cody Bakewell

Join Cody and Corey on this raw, unfiltered New Year’s Eve special as we ring out 2025 and charge into 2026! We kick things off with huge news—our brand-new Patreon is live, complete with exclusive perks for our closest supporters. What started as two buddies blowing off steam has exploded into a full-on business partnership, complete with merch drops and big dreams.From there, we dive deep: brutal year-in-review rants on politics, global chaos, and everything that drove us nuts in 2025. We swap personal war stories (including a wild shooting range scare), talk emotional control, communication hacks, the grind of parenting, our obsession with car projects and dream rides (hello, quiet EVs), and why dogs are the ultimate wingmen. Plus, we get real about podcasting as therapy, building community, and what we’re manifesting for the year ahead—more outdoor adventures, family time, nonprofit impact, and killer video content.If you love real talk, zero filter, and good vibes, this one’s for you. Thanks for riding with us—we couldn’t do it without this community.🔗 Support the show and get exclusive bonus content: patreon.com/roadsandrabbitholes🔗 Grab our fresh merch and rep the rabbit hole: roads-and-rabbit-hole.printify.meHappy New Year—let’s make 2026 legendary! 🎙️🚗🐇Chapters00:00 End of Year Wrap-Up and New Beginnings03:01 Launching the Podcast and Patreon05:56 Personal Stories and Connections10:01 Merchandise and Business Ventures15:02 Challenges and Triumphs in Podcasting20:01 Reflections on Friendship and Business24:11 Year in Review: Highlights and Events25:33 Political Strife and Global Tensions28:51 Environmental Challenges and Natural Disasters30:51 Military Standards and Readiness32:51 Unrest and Historical Parallels35:18 Technological Warfare and Military Innovations41:13 Personal Experiences and Reflections45:38 Looking Ahead: Future Predictions and Aspirations53:37 Emotional Control and Communication Styles55:57 The Journey of Podcasting and Personal Growth59:58 Future Aspirations and Family Connections01:01:00 Car Projects and Hobbies01:06:01 Life Challenges and Parenting01:18:07 Goals for the Podcast and Nonprofit Work01:22:14 Embracing the Outdoors01:25:19 The Power of Video Content01:26:54 Transitioning to Electric Vehicles01:29:57 Dream Cars and Personal Preferences01:31:10 The Evolution of Car Enthusiasm01:36:05 The Joy of Quiet Vehicles01:37:32 The Bond with Dogs01:41:41 The Challenges of Dog Ownership01:46:50 Looking Ahead to the Future
