Going Yard

Fall is here, football is back, and Alex is already creating workplace problems after accidentally telling a coworker he had a weekend date with Chris Hansen instead of RedZone host Scott Hanson.From there, Alex recaps a great weekend before attempting a peaceful James Taylor commute in the increasingly unreliable Bitty Buggy—complete with rain coming through the window, a broken windshield wiper scraping the glass, and an extra 40 minutes of traffic.Meanwhile, Jake impulsively buys an enormous jar of pickles before reigniting the year-long Walk to Mordor controversy. After his new phone mysteriously credits him with extra miles, Alex launches a full doping investigation and declares the competition’s integrity destroyed.Jake also unveils his Italy-inspired Caesar haircut, the guys return to NFL Pick’ems, and a simple 50-cent wing happy hour turns into full-blown barroom drama when a stranger asks Jake for relationship advice in the bathroom—then immediately ignores it.Timestamps / Chapters0:00 — Going Yard is back & NFL Pick’ems return 2:30 — Merch ideas and Jake starts “percolating” 3:15 — Alex accidentally tells work he has a date with Chris Hansen 4:45 — Alex’s actual date update 5:15 — AJ calls with spontaneous weekend plans ~10:00 — Weekend adventures & football season settling in ~18:00 — James Taylor enters Alex’s life 20:25 — The lovely weekend comes to an end 21:00 — The Bitty Buggy is falling apart 21:55 — James Taylor vs. the commute from hell 22:20 — The windshield wiper starts scraping the glass 23:45 — “Fire and Rain” becomes painfully appropriate 24:35 — Jake impulsively buys a pickle jar bigger than his head 26:00 — The Hannibal Buress pickle-juice method 27:40 — Alex declares the Walk to Mordor competition fraudulent 28:40 — Explaining the 1,700-mile challenge 29:40 — The accusations against Kyle begin 30:55 — Jake’s new phone wipes his Mordor progress 31:45 — Jake discovers the missing miles 32:20 — Mysterious bonus mileage appears 32:55 — “There could have been a double dip” 34:40 — Alex loses faith in the entire competition 35:00 — The doping analogy 35:25 — “Cheaters deserve prison” 36:25 — Broken windshield wipers become a metaphor for Alex’s life 36:50 — Jake vs. Kyle: two rams locked in the grasslands 39:05 — A fantasy matchup decided by less than a point ~40:00 — Jake unveils the new haircut 43:30 — The Italy-inspired Caesar cut 44:00 — Caesar cut vs. Friar Jake vs. Simple Jack 45:45 — Phillies playoff check-in 46:45 — The 50-cent wing happy hour begins 47:45 — Playing cards with wing-covered hands 48:00 — Learning “Fuck the Dealer” 50:15 — Jake admits he has absolutely no poker face 51:15 — A stranger approaches Jake in the bathroom 51:50 — “My ex is here with her new boyfriend…” 52:15 — Jake gives the stranger very clear advice 53:15 — Jake returns to the table looking like he saw a ghost 53:45 — The stranger ignores Jake’s advice ~54:30 — The exes finally start talking 56:15 — Someone starts crying 56:40 — “I was never the same after you” 57:15 — The entire bar is now watching 58:15 — Jake desperately shuffles cards through the drama 59:05 — The check finally arrives 59:45 — “LEAVE HER!

Summary: Football is officially back, but first Jake and Alex have some important business to handle. The guys recap a weekend featuring suspiciously “healthy” Muddy Buddies, frisbee golf, an overly intense pickleball opponent, and Jake’s descent into underwear, vegetables and football during his week home alone with Pippin.Jake’s new phone brings tragedy when nearly 1,600 miles of Fantasy Hike progress disappear, while Patty’s AI dog-sitting video inspires the unfortunately named “Patty Pets Pets.” Alex counters with a chaotic weekend of his own involving work happy hour strategy, an armpit-smelling request, a doomed coffee table, a robotic lawnmower and a Princeton date.But the real innovation comes at work, where Alex reveals his method for warming a chilled Stroopwafel: putting it in his back pocket and “Mother Goosing” it.Finally, football returns with Eagles reactions, fantasy victory laps, early-season panic and some Carson Wentz appreciation.TIMESTAMPS / CHAPTERS00:00 — Hostile Takeovers & Going Yard Begins 01:45 — One-Year-Old Birthday Parties & “Thanks, Neff” 03:45 — The Healthy Muddy Buddy Propaganda 08:35 — Frisbee Golf & Pickleball Rage 13:15 — Big Booty Mixes at the Community Park 17:35 — Jake Finally Gets a New Phone 20:00 — Corrections From the Vegas Episode 24:20 — The Fantasy Hike Disaster: 1,500+ Miles Gone 26:50 — Blue the Dog Becomes an AI Musician 28:45 — Introducing “Patty Pets Pets” 30:25 — Jake's Single Guy Week 34:45 — Alex's Actual Single Guy Weekend 41:05 — Armpit Girl & the Coffee Table Disaster 46:20 — The Robot Lawnmower 49:25 — Alex's Workday Food Routine 51:40 — The Stroopwafel Appears 53:40 — Alex “Mother Gooses” the Stroopwafel 56:00 — Stroop Kid & the Greatest Cartoon Bedroom Ever 1:01:40 — Alex's Princeton Date & The Bent Spoon 1:07:15 — Football Is Back & Fantasy Misery Returns 1:13:35 — Eagles vs. Commanders Breakdown 1:28:15 — Around the NFC East 1:32:05 — Week 1 Fantasy Football Victory Laps 1:43:45 — Goose and Go 1:45:00 — Carson Wentz Appreciation Corner 1:46:40 — Patty Pets Pets Returns & Goodbye#GoingYard #Podcast #ComedyPodcast #Football #NFL #FantasyFootball #PhiladelphiaEagles #Eagles #PhillySports #Stroopwafel #PodcastClipshttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

Episode SummaryEpisode 50! Jake returns from a Vegas bachelor party physically depleted but spiritually fulfilled—and finally answers the question Going Yard listeners have been waiting weeks to hear: Was Carrot Top worth it?Before getting there, Alex recaps a football kickoff party featuring five TVs, backyard competitions, beer helmets, tackling dummies, and increasingly questionable contests.

Jake reveals the full manifesto that convinced 12 grown men to see Carrot Top and delivers his official review.But somehow the night gets even stranger when the groom bets on 14 red—and hits it twice in a row.Plus: fantasy drafts, Fremont Street, fat little piggies, bubble craps, White Castle, and the long road to recovery. Timestamps / Chapters0:00 – NEVER VAMP 0:30 – Going Yard goes corporate 1:05 – Jake somehow survived Vegas 1:45 – Alex attends the Third Annual Football Day 2:45 – Five TVs and full football degeneracy 3:00 – A man gives birth to a football 3:30 – Beer helmets: legitimate technology or always a gag? 5:00 – The Football Day spread 5:45 – The Dad Strength Competition 6:45 – Alex wins without having the dad bod 7:15 – Pushups, football bowling & backyard competitions 8:00 – Best Juke Move 8:35 – The most questionable competition of Football Day 9:30 – Alex has to experience this mostly sober 10:45 – The Vegas Saga begins11:45 – Four hours of sleep before Vegas 12:30 – Welcome to Excalibur 13:30 – The all-inclusive deal that started everything 14:15 – Casey becomes obsessed with the buffet 15:40 – Yardstick drinks immediately enter the equation 16:45 – The Knights of Excalibur 17:30 – The dangerous all-inclusive Italian dinner 18:20 – Night One catches up with Jake 19:15 – The savvy early exit 19:45 – Evaluating the Excalibur buffet 21:10 – Jake's newfound love for honeydew 21:45 – Stadium Swim22:30 – Why the groom is a football sicko 23:30 – Walking through a casino in bathing suits 24:15 – The longest escalator in human history 24:45 – Football Mecca 25:40 – A PITCHER of espresso martini 26:20 – Jake secretly switches to orange juice and water 27:15 – Some members of the group do NOT pace themselves 28:40 – “Bin Laden was part of the CIA” 29:00 – Jake realizes he's way too sober 29:40 – An eight-hour shift at the pool 30:25 – The most important bachelor-party nap of all time 30:50 – IT'S CARROT TOP TIME31:00 – Jake actually convinced everyone 31:30 – The Carrot Top manifesto spreads to Discord 33:00 – Jake reads the complete Carrot Top sales pitch34:25 – “We need a little friction because that's how you make a fire” 35:00 – Why a TERRIBLE show would still be a win 35:50 – Alex reviews Jake's salesmanship 36:30 – Usher never stood a chance 37:00 – Cashing in the sacred buffet tokens 37:45 – Entering the Luxor 38:15 – The warm-up comic 39:15 – What exactly IS a Carrot Top show? 40:10 – How does 61-year-old Carrot Top look?41:45 – Tie-dye, leopard pants and the legendary red hair 42:20 – The Carrot Top hype video 43:10 – Carrot Top begins firing 44:30 – Jake realizes he's responsible for bringing 12 people here 45:15 – The show's extremely sophisticated set list 46:15 – Jake starts sweating 47:00 – The 2003 energy is alive and well 48:15 – Why Carrot Top is basically a band 49:10 – The Vegas hotel-room joke that gets Jake 50:40 – Why live comedy hits differently 51:05 – Carrot Top understands Vegas tourists 52:00 – The encore nobody expected 52:30 – The official bachelor-party Carrot Top reviews53:20 – The group is perfectly divided 53:45 – Jake's original Carrot Top thesis was CORRECT54:20 – Vegas gives everyone $25 in free play 55:00 – Modern slot machines make absolutely no sense 56:00 – The groom puts everything on his birthday number 57:10 – 14 RED58:00 – The casino accidentally overpays him 59:10 – “I gotta go 14 again” 59:40 – 14 RED.

SummaryJake and Alex are one episode away from 50, and football season has officially arrived.Alex starts with the Eagles preseason game that never happened: free tickets, a last-minute meetup with Andrew, brutal stadium traffic, $50 parking, and the eventual decision to simply give up and go home. Meanwhile, Jake’s considerably calmer weekend at a local historic museum uncovers Yardley family history, a 1700s ferry operation, and confirmation of his long-running theory that old taverns were spaced roughly a day’s horse ride apart.Naturally, this reignites Jake’s dream of creating a communal tavern—before a disappointing cheesesteak nearly ruins the afternoon.Then Jake enters full fantasy-football sicko mode, recounting his livestreamed Brilliantly Dumb draft, his legendary rosemary nuts, and a looming thunderstorm. The guys wrap with The Bear, fantasy commissioner Lisa, Green Lantern, Phillies baseball, and Alex revealing his scientifically perfected baseball-nap setup. Timestamps / Chapters0:00 – The Kelce brothers stole Alex's Art of War shtick 0:45 – Running into a Going Yard listener in the wild 2:00 – Dylan recreates the high school senior-trip photo 3:30 – Alex is officially locked in at the gym 4:30 – Labor Day weekend is about to get spicy 5:00 – Surprise Eagles preseason tickets 6:00 – Andrew arrives in full Eagles mode 7:15 – The Eagles trip begins falling apart 8:00 – The worst traffic Alex has ever experienced 8:40 – $50 PARKING FOR PRESEASON?!9:15 – Pulling the ripcord on the Eagles game 10:40 – Jake's equally exciting weekend: local history 11:30 – The Yardleys apparently ran a ferry 12:40 – River ferry or magical fairy? 13:20 – Touring a 1600s cabin 14:15 – Musty, musky, damp AND moist 15:05 – The tavern theory is finally CONFIRMED 16:00 – Jake gains access to the sacred tavern book 16:40 – The 250-year, $1-a-year lease 17:30 – Inside an old-school tavern 18:30 – Jake's tavern dream returns19:45 – Why intergenerational spaces matter 21:00 – Community without screens 22:25 – Jake and Lisa try Steve's Prince of Steaks 23:00 – Oh no.

SummaryJake comes straight from a run and Alex arrives in his trusty “Bitty Buggy” as the brothers kick things off debating which Mario Kart and movie vehicles best represent their cars. From there, they fully embrace their Funcle Era, recounting the decision to attend their five-year-old nephew’s birthday dressed as Minions—including a costumed Wawa run and the crushing realization that the birthday boy wasn’t particularly impressed.Alex recaps another date in Philadelphia, nearly misses a romantic opportunity at a singles event, and may have manifested his future Dalmatian into existence. The brothers then revisit one of their strangest Los Angeles memories: catering a celebrity-filled party featuring John Mayer, John Legend, John Stamos, LL Cool J, Darth Vader, and Rob Lowe thanking Stormtroopers for their service.Finally, Jake channels The Bear and turns a humble honeydew into an absurdly elaborate frozen dessert—proving that sometimes you just have to do the dew. Timestamps0:00 – Jake comes straight from a run 1:30 – Interview vibes & losing your sole 3:00 – The Funcle Era continues 3:30 – Alex's Nissan Juke is a Bitty Buggy 5:00 – Defending the Bitty Buggy 6:00 – Alex's car literally starts falling apart 7:30 – What movie vehicle is your car? 9:00 – Jake's Jeep gets a questionable Jurassic Park comparison 10:45 – The five-year-old Minion birthday party 11:30 – Going to Wawa dressed as Minions 12:20 – Discussing stock portfolios in full Minion costumes 15:15 – The Minions make their grand entrance 16:30 – Children expose us as Minion frauds 17:30 – Alex's birthday-party side quest 18:30 – A five-year-old gets slowly hunted by an elderly dog 19:45 – “Why are you dressed like that?” 21:00 – The chocolate milk legend 21:45 – Alex's blind date at Talula's Garden 22:30 – Is there such a thing as too much fig? 23:45 – Chaotic Singles & watching the Phillies 25:45 – Alex leaves approximately 10 minutes too early 27:00 – Alex vision-boards his dream Philly apartment 28:30 – Manifesting a Dalmatian 29:30 – Alex's completely legitimate firefighter story 31:30 – 50-cent wings & working from the bar 33:15 – Remembering our craziest LA catering job 35:00 – John Mayer, John Legend & John Stamos 36:00 – A coworker has no idea who John Stamos is 37:15 – New Girl comes to life 38:30 – LL Cool J, Prince's band & Stormtroopers 40:00 – Rob Lowe joins the Dark Side41:30 – “Thank you for your service” 42:30 – LL Cool J takes the stage 43:15 – The Hollywood acid trip45:30 – Going analog & the transistor radio 46:45 – Alex's old-school alarm clock 48:30 – The Phillies are rolling 51:00 – Fantasy football season is officially here 52:00 – Jake joins a 16-team guillotine league 54:00 – Preseason injuries create immediate chaos 56:00 – Fantasy football group chats come alive 57:00 – “This reeks of collusion” 58:00 – Alex gets the celebrity entrance into a new league 59:30 – Trying to trade the No. 2 pick 1:01:15 – The art of being a group-chat volume shooter 1:03:00 – Never double-book your fantasy drafts 1:04:30 – Is opening NFL weekend becoming a Boys Bash? 1:05:15 – Jake sells Alex on Silo1:08:00 – The Bear gives Jake secondhand anxiety 1:09:45 – How Jake and Lisa divide cooking duties 1:11:00 – Jake is a jazz chef 1:12:00 – The summer harvest is ending 1:13:30 – The honeydew of all honeydews1:15:30 – Instagram influences Jake's dessert plans 1:16:30 – “You cannot come into the kitchen” 1:17:20 – Elevating the honeydew 1:18:30 – The plan immediately goes wrong 1:19:15 – Pistachios enter the equation 1:20:30 – Jake channels The Bear1:21:30 – The final honeydew presentation 1:22:30 – Alex reviews Jake's culinary journey 1:23:15 – Why honeydew deserves better 1:25:00 – That's how you do the dewhttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryFootball is officially back, which means Going Yard is slowly returning to its roots—but not before Jake and Alex solve late-stage capitalism.The brothers open by imagining a dystopian future where everything in your own home is a microtransaction, from vending-machine refrigerators to a 29-cent bidet experience. After recapping the Phillies’ Field of Dreams game, Jake discovers the emotional toll of the “toll troll,” while Alex arrives at work to find a tiny bird terrorizing his coworkers.Then Jake prepares for yet another bachelor party in Vegas and makes an increasingly passionate case for choosing Carrot Top over Blue Man Group. What starts as a simple show preference becomes a full philosophical argument about happiness, expectations, novelty, and why a terrible Carrot Top performance might actually be the perfect bachelor-party memory.Finally, football returns as the guys break down the Eagles and run their first fantasy football mock draft of the season. Timestamps0:00 – Welcome to the microtransaction dystopia 1:00 – Paying 29 cents to use your own bidet 2:00 – Going Yard's choose-your-own-adventure paywall 3:15 – Weekend recap 4:00 – Phillies Field of Dreams game 6:10 – Schwarbomb into the cornfield 6:45 – Jake's weird Friday-night sleep pattern 10:30 – Jake finally gets E-ZPass 11:00 – Cash-only tolls in 2026?! 12:15 – The Toll Troll 12:50 – Football is officially back 13:40 – An absolutely brutal Eagles preseason game 14:45 – The Eagles' international players 16:00 – Why the Eagles are so damn easy to root for 17:25 – Alex becomes a city guy 18:40 – THERE'S A BIRD IN THE OFFICE20:30 – Pokémon completely derails the bird conversation 21:55 – Grown men are terrified of a tiny bird 23:30 – The bird demands a one-on-one with Alex's boss 25:45 – Wandering around Old City 26:30 – Random people drawing Philadelphia architecture 27:50 – Working in LA vs. tourists enjoying LA 29:40 – Jake has ANOTHER bachelor party 30:00 – The Bachelor Party Group Chat Bingo Card 33:45 – The Vegas plan & the all-important lazy river 35:15 – Carrot Top vs. Blue Man Group36:10 – Alex somehow knows the entire Gallagher/Carrot Top backstory 38:00 – Jake prepares to take the Carrot Top campaign public 40:40 – Jake gets philosophical about happiness 43:00 – Why expectations determine the Vegas show choice 44:20 – The full Carrot Top manifesto begins46:25 – Alex has never seen Jake more alive 48:20 – Is Carrot Top simply a fun hill to die on? 49:15 – Criss Angel enters the conversation 50:45 – Recreating Ocean's Eleven at the Bellagio 52:40 – The Carrot Top orange wave 54:20 – Going Yard officially returns to fantasy football 56:15 – The first mock draft of the season 57:15 – Gibbs vs. Bijan at No. 1 59:45 – What do we do at pick six? 1:01:50 – Why we're stockpiling running backs 1:04:00 – Derrick Henry vs. Chase Brown vs. Kenneth Walker 1:07:20 – Three straight running backs?! 1:10:30 – Searching for our first receiver 1:17:00 – Garrett Wilson gets the call 1:22:30 – Betting on Caleb Williams and Chicago 1:24:00 – Handcuff strategy takes over 1:28:45 – We waited WAY too long at tight end 1:35:40 – The final roster 1:37:20 – What we'd change about the draft 1:40:30 – Football is back and so is Going YardHashtags#GoingYard #GoingYardPodcast #ComedyPodcast #TwinBrothershttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

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.

SummaryAfter months of planning, Jake and Alex finally get to play tour guide as longtime friends Tanner and Aubrey visit Philadelphia for the first time. From Wawa jokes years in the making to boozy history tours, Liberty Bell selfies, Angelo's cheesesteaks, and an unforgettable Michelin-recognized pasta dinner, the brothers break down what makes Philadelphia—and Bucks County—feel like home. Along the way, they reminisce about childhood memories at the family picnic, debate what city they'd most want to give tours in, share stories from New Hope and Lambertville, discover the perfect dirty pasta water martini, and wrap things up with some quick thoughts on another huge week in Philadelphia sports. It's a love letter to their hometown, good friends, and one of the best weekends they've had in a long time. Chapters0:00 – Welcome back & Tanner's Philly visit 2:00 – Boozy history tours & Morgan Wallen fans 3:00 – If we were professional tour guides... 8:00 – The Alaska rafting story 11:00 – Becoming a "city guy" 15:00 – Bar chess & meeting strangers 20:00 – Planning a New Orleans trip 23:00 – Family picnic memories 31:00 – Giving Tanner the Bucks County tour 34:00 – New Hope & Lambertville 39:00 – Angelo's cheesesteaks 42:00 – Liberty Bell & Independence Hall 45:00 – Michelin-recognized pasta dinner 57:00 – Looking back on the perfect weekend 1:00:00 – Phillies & Sixers offseason talk 1:01:00 – Closing thoughts#GoingYard #Philadelphia #NewHopePA #Lambertville #VisitPhilly #Cheesesteak #FoodPodcast #ComedyPodcast #BrotherPodcast #TravelStories #BucksCounty #Podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryAfter last week's power outage, the brothers are finally back with a packed episode. Jake recounts a grooming disaster that accidentally leaves him with a brand-new beard style right before a triple date in Philadelphia, while Alex embraces his inner cowboy at a chaotic singles line dancing event that somehow leads to networking opportunities instead of romance. Along the way, they reminisce about their early days in Los Angeles, landing TV gigs, and why Double Dare 2000 still deserves more respect. The conversation then shifts to adulthood as Jake shares his first experience with a new dentist, debates whether Invisalign is worth it, and wonders if fixing the gaps in his teeth is cosmetic or practical. Finally, the brothers dive headfirst into the biggest sports story of the year: LeBron James joining the Philadelphia 76ers. They break down what the move means for his legacy, why this roster could be one of the most versatile in the NBA, and make an early prediction that Philadelphia could be on the verge of one of the greatest championship runs in the city's history. Chapters / Timestamps0:00 – Gummy updates & fixing last week's power outage 3:30 – Alex's country music conversion 5:00 – Previewing the dentist & The Odyssey7:00 – Fantasy football group chat chaos 8:00 – Triple date in Philadelphia 13:00 – The accidental beard trim 20:00 – Jake's new dentist experience 33:00 – Is Invisalign worth it? 36:30 – LeBron James becomes a Sixer 42:00 – The "LeBron tattoo" legacy analogy 49:00 – Wilt Chamberlain parallels 54:00 – Breaking down the new Sixers roster 1:06:00 – Can Philly win three championships? 1:10:00 – Alex goes line dancing 1:17:00 – Fishtown bars & making new friends 1:20:00 – Wrapping up & saving The Odyssey for next weekhttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

The brothers also debate Shane Gillis' record-breaking stadium comedy show, review Will Ferrell's new golf comedy series Hawk, relive a rain-soaked Phillies tailgate featuring peanuts and decades-old Disney ponchos, and somehow finish the episode with Jake's power going out mid-recording—turning the final minutes into an unexpectedly funny behind-the-scenes look at how the show comes together.Chapters / Timestamps0:00 – Alex's new driving commute & morning routine 3:50 – The infamous "Murphy Ball" disaster 10:00 – Carrot cake, FIFA & Spanish broadcasts 15:30 – Fawny the neighborhood deer returns 18:30 – Pineville Tavern date night 30:00 – Piccolo's market, Cutco knives & cigars 37:30 – Princeton, Hoagie Haven & stormy weather 41:30 – Coworker secretly working from Hawaii? 45:00 – Shane Gillis' stadium comedy show 49:00 – Phillies tailgate: peanuts & ponchos 57:00 – Toy Story 5 and house hunting 1:01:00 – Realtor reverse psychology 1:10:00 – Reviewing Golf (Will Ferrell) 1:16:00 – The great power outage & Alex's solo podcast 1:27:00 – Closing thoughts#GoingYard #ComedyPodcast #Phillies #MLB #Tailgate #Pennsylvania #NewJersey #WillFerrell #ShaneGillis #HouseHunting #BrotherPodcast #FunnyStories #GoingYardPodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryAfter a few busy weeks, the guys are back catching up on everything from new jobs to beach trips. Alex shares the reality of his first few weeks in corporate life, including officially breaking up with SEPTA after multiple train delays and a derailment, while Jake checks in from the Jersey Shore with a virtual beachside recording setup and updates on Pippin's newest cat furniture. The conversation bounces through prison-style home workouts, mini golf, three-scoop ice cream disasters, childhood memories of the infamous "Federal Deficit" sundae, and surprisingly detailed bedtime routines involving magnesium gummies, lavender nasal strips, and the pursuit of perfect sleep. They also recap an unforgettable Fourth of July rooftop party in Philadelphia featuring gourmet hot dogs, Oreo balls, fireworks flying a little too close for comfort, and a dramatic thunderstorm rolling into the city. The episode wraps with Brooklyn brewery adventures, firefighter recruitment games, an unexpected tattoo compliment, and a game of "What Are the Odds?" that may have Jake permanently putting Lisa's name on his foot. Chapters / Timestamps0:00 – Recording from the beach & Alex's new job update 2:00 – The end of Alex's train era 5:00 – Pippin's new scratching post dilemma 8:00 – Prison workouts, push-ups & home fitness 13:00 – Mini golf, three-scoop ice cream & beach trip 15:00 – "Little Rashy" and lactose tolerance debates 18:00 – Magnesium gummies & bedtime routines 22:00 – Lavender gardens and wildflower yards 23:00 – The legendary "Federal Deficit" ice cream sundae 29:00 – Fourth of July rooftop party in Philadelphia 35:00 – Fireworks, thunderstorms & rooftop chaos 39:00 – Oreo balls and gourmet hot dogs 49:00 – Double date at Niko's and Michelin-star aspirations 57:00 – Carrot cake perfection 1:00:00 – Weekend resets and heated stretch classes 1:02:00 – Brooklyn brewery & firefighter recruiting event 1:08:00 – The tattoo compliment 1:11:00 – "What Are the Odds?" tattoo roulette 1:15:00 – Wrapping up & Sixers offseason teaser#GoingYard #ComedyPodcast #FourthOfJuly #Philadelphia #Brooklyn #BeachTrip #MiniGolf #TattooRoulette #OreoBalls #CarrotCake #TrainLife #BrotherPodcast #FunnyPodcast #Storytime #GoingYardPodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryPart 2 picks up right where the Tahoe trip starts to spiral. Jake heads into a 23-person bachelor party split across multiple houses, complete with a custom documentary premiere for the groom, a tippy Jeep ride through the mountains, and a Lake Tahoe boat day fueled by tequila, Creed, and enough personalities to fill three separate reality shows. From there it turns into full bachelor-party anarchy: casino losses, Wildcard and his crypto wallet collection, zombie golf, first-shower-of-the-weekend admissions, and a showdown between an angry Englishman and a drunk cowboy. Meanwhile, Alex gives the update on his first week at the new job and his transformation into a full-on Philadelphia train commuter. Between SEPTA rides, railfan YouTube culture, an ice cream truck soundtrack outside the office all day, and surviving his first corporate happy hour, the second half of the episode becomes the perfect contrast to Jake’s Tahoe survival story. Timestamps / Chapter Ideas0:00 – Back for Part 2 and the return of the Shady Tree Committee 2:00 –  HOA tree war and Jake’s lumberjack solution 11:30 – Sacramento recap and the drive into Tahoe 15:00 – Airport pickup sign 18:00 – Jeep Wrangler duck culture and the tippy mountain ride 24:00 – Bachelor party work Zoom nightmare 27:00 – The 23-person bachelor party setup 34:00 – The custom bachelor party documentary premiere 39:00 – Bruce Springsteen pandering to the Jersey contingent 43:00 – Boat day on Lake Tahoe: Creed, tequila, and wrong dock groups 51:00 – Casino night, ice cream sandwiches, and Wildcard  emerges 58:00 – Crypto wallets, penis coin, and Wildcard's full evolution 1:00:30 – Zombie golf 1:05:00 – Englishman vs. cowboy therapist showdown 1:09:00 – Lisa’s Vegas-to-Sacramento relay and wedding weekend exhaustion 1:13:00 – Jake forgets dress shoes and wears blue Nikes to the wedding 1:17:00 – The Rave Cave gets rejected 1:18:00 – Flight delays, Vegas-Chicago-Philly misery, and red-eye travel hell 1:23:00 – Alex’s first week of work and becoming a train commuter 1:24:30 – Railfans, SEPTA, and train YouTube culture 1:28:00 – The all-day ice cream truck outside the office 1:30:00 – First corporate happy hour and train delays home Hashtags#GoingYard #ComedyPodcast #TahoeBachelorParty #LakeTahoe #ShadyTreeCommittee #BachelorPartyChaos #CryptoGuy #TrainCommute #Philadelphia #SEPTA #BrotherPodcast #TravelChaos #FunnyPodcast #WeddingWeekend #GoingYardPodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryGoing Yard is back after a couple-week hiatus, and the guys have a lot of life to catch up on. Jake recaps a weekend in Easton, Pennsylvania full of rooftop drinks, a sprawling beer garden, a cold plunge in a stream, and a farmer’s market coffee order under the alias “cool guy in a bucket hat.” He also shares why Easton feels like the kind of place where a tiny comedy speakeasy could absolutely thrive. Alex brings the chaos with an all-time soccer bar story from Doylestown during a USA World Cup match. After bonding with a bald stranger over pregame trash talk and pitchers of beer, Alex gets picked up in celebration after the first goal, rubs the guy’s bald head for luck, and leads a “USA!” chant from the stage. When the second goal gets waved off and then reinstated, they finally learn each other’s names. It’s exactly the kind of weirdly wholesome sports-bar moment this podcast lives for. Jake also starts the next travel chapter: a chaotic flight to California that somehow turns into an $800 airline voucher, a luxury airport lounge experience, and the lead-in to a Tahoe bachelor party and wedding doubleheader. The episode closes with the promise of even more stories in part two, including Tahoe, the wedding weekend, and something called the “Shady Tree Committee.” Chapter / Timestamp Ideas0:00 – Dateline intro and podcast return 1:30 – Summer backlog and life updates 3:00 – Jake’s Easton trip begins 6:30 – Dalton the Tugboat Mud Man 12:00 – Easton as a secret comedy city 17:00 – The firefighter handshake tangent 20:00 – Burning deodorant and gentleman swagger 25:00 – Easton beer garden and soccer watch party 32:00 – Cold plunge, farmer’s market, and “cool guy in a bucket hat” 40:00 – Alex’s Doylestown soccer bar story begins 47:00 – Tim picks Alex up after the USA goal 50:00 – “I’m Alex.” “I’m Tim.” 51:00 – Rooftop bar and Aunt Cindy sighting 53:00 – Jake’s $800 airport voucher finesse 57:00 – Capital One lounge, shower, and cocktails 1:07:00 – Sacramento trivia night and setup for Tahoe 1:09:00 – Tease for part two: Tahoe + Shady Tree Committee Hashtags#GoingYard #ComedyPodcast #SoccerBar #WorldCup #EastonPA #Doylestown #TahoeTrip #TravelChaos #BucketHatSummer #PodcastLife #BrotherPodcast #SportsStories #FunnyPodcast #AmericanOutlaws #TriviaNight #BachelorParty #GoingYardPodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

The guys relive bunker meltdowns, Ruben Studdard nostalgia, and the creation of the unofficial Adolis Garcia Fan Club. But the real stars of the episode are the animals. Fawny the baby deer makes a shocking return appearance on the golf course, while Alex encounters Winston, a legendary disc golf dog who rides a one-wheel through the woods with his weed-smoking owner.

Between aggressive French neighbors, George Russell crashing directly in front of their section, and Country Roads uniting an entire karaoke bar, the guys survive pure bachelor party chaos—and somehow come out spiritually refreshed on the other side. Chapters / Timestamps 0:00 – Burnt popcorn philosophy & expiration date debates  2:30 – Jake almost ruins Lisa’s work meeting  5:00 – Montreal bachelor party begins  7:00 – Flight cancellations & airline customer service nightmare  13:00 – Emergency duct-tape roadside car repair  16:00 – Notre Dame Basilica & finally arriving in Montreal  19:00 – Survivor finale chaos before takeoff  23:00 – Airport weed pen disaster & checked bag meltdown  28:00 – Montreal Uber line insanity  34:00 – The angry French neighbor & double noise complaint confusion  41:00 – Habs playoff energy & maple whiskey nights  44:00 – French bakery paradise & Montreal subway adventures  50:00 – First day at the F1 track  57:00 – Race day chaos, crashes & George Russell meltdown  1:05:00 – Karaoke bar takeover begins  1:10:00 – Tenacious D performance fallout  1:17:00 – Country Roads unites the bar  1:28:00 – Martini glass explosion & karaoke bartender  1:30:00 – Steak-and-lobster zombie mode  1:34:00 – Rejected from clubs for “ruining the ratio”  1:35:00 – Ramen recovery & post-trip exhaustion Hashtags#GoingYard #Formula1 #F1 #MontrealGP #ComedyPodcast #BachelorParty #Karaoke #CountryRoads #Montreal #TravelStories #Poutine #GeorgeRussell #LewisHamilton #PodcastLife #BrotherPodcast #FunnyStories #AirlineChaos #BurntPopcorn #CanadianGrandPrix #MontrealNightlifehttps://www.youtube.com/@goingyardley

SummaryThis week on Going Yard, the guys spiral from hats and parfaits into one of the most aggressively suburban episodes yet.
