Deric can be bought.
We return to our side piece, Bartaco, where Deric outs himself as a frontrunner whose allegiances are firmly for sale. We also discuss: • Is Jerry Seinfeld a dick?• Should one make art for the masses?• Sam’s fashion issues.• The assumption of the tip. And more.
-
I’m Sorry, Steph
The gang is back in full force at Fire on the Mountain, and discusses low T, long runs, and the dumbest little league naming system of all time. Plus, Sam makes an impassioned appeal to a close friend of the show, Stephanie (or Steph, to her friends (which Sam, thus far, is not)).
-
Sushi With the Swanson Boys
Deric takes his kids to sushi for the first EVER Sam AND Jer free podcast. As a result: our best yet. Happy birthday, Dane.
-
We somehow made it to 100 episodes.
Inexplicably and—to be honest—somewhat miraculously, we have reached our 100th episode. We celebrate at old trusty, Fire on the Mountain Highlands, and discuss the proper way to parent other adults, how Deric “almost” got in a huge fight that he definitely would have won, and accidentally...
-
Stay Until the End for Lively WNBA Discussion
The gentlemen meet at Fire on the Mountain south to discuss a wide array of topics, but the most notable is the WNBA, which happens at the end of the podcast. Please stay for it.
-
Adult ASMR Content
Returning to Bartaco in the highlands, the men discuss the nexus of ASMR and adult content. Also: retiring Jer from the podcast, investment strategies, and the weirdest things we do.
-
Putting the Gentlemen in “Gentlemen’s Club”
The guys discuss their worst moments at strip clubs. There’s more, but that’s most of it.
-
Why Are You Weird?
Jer gets pulled into an adult khaki meeting, so Deric and Sam sit down and grumble about him and also try to get to the bottom of a timeless topic: what makes weird people weird?
-
We Are Here to Sell You
The guys eat tacos and talk shady sales techniques, ornery contractors, the ideal body type for playoff basketball, and why Sam’s tacos are taking so long.
-
18????
How many wings is too many? How would you react if your fellow diner ordered 18 wings for himself? What is the proper way to discuss Iowa’s Caitlin Clark? Can comedians be rich and famous AND funny? These and other questions are discussed on this quarter’s episode of Lunch with Jer.
-
Muchausen by Proxy
Sam leaves the guys high and dry. Typical. Deric and Jer muse about Friends nostalgia, David Coverdale’s hog, and why 25 is the best age.
-
Men’s Skincare Routines
We are back at Bartaco! The guys debate the best fast food restaurant, when it’s acceptable to call a team “we,” and Deric’s new men’s skincare routine (and what the other guys think about it). Also: Mexico is no longer cheap, and why it’s best to just stay home.
-
What makes a bad firefighter?
We come to you once again from Fire on the Mountain, and are joined by our friend and firefighter calendar model, Chad. We discuss his history posing for the calendar, plus what makes a person bad at firefighting. Also: male strippers, the Great Clips experience, the shadow self, and why Drake...
-
Lunch Without Jer
Jer bailed on us today so once again the supporting cast will have to carry this one. We discuss whether Reno, NV is a viable city, when it’s acceptable to buy a drink for another man’s wife, and whether being an average musician—a la Taylor Swift—is actually better than being good.
-
Proud
The guys celebrate pride month by overeating tacos (Sam had 6), and discussing the value of parades in general. Deric receives an award, and Jer tries to give Sam more work. And for the first time ever, they discuss the options of a doctor who is NOT from the Netherlands. Join in on the fun!
-
Finally Admitting That Sam Was Right About Everything
I believe the episode title says it all.
-
Nondenominational Holiday Special
We’re back at Bartaco! Hell yes. We talk about Jeremy’s beard, Deric’s affinity for bad haircuts (and inability to feel worthy of love), why soccer scoring is actually the same as every other sport’s scoring, the current state of kids names, Deric’s burrito smuggling habits, and which things we...
-
Tipping on iPads
In this episode, we try to determine which NFL franchise is the all-around shittiest, which college town is the all-around best, the appropriate thing to do when they swing that iPad around and ask for a tip, whether “good silverware” is necessary, and what to do about Deric’s short couch…
more -
Kamala’s Legs
We’re back at Bartaco, where the food and hospitality are always on point. Deric brought new equipment, so we’re still working out the kinks, and thus Sam is extremely loud this episode. Also, that’s just how he is. Deric theorizes that Kamala Harris has nice legs. Jer searches for a job, and...
-
Don’t Email My Wife
We’re back at Fire on the Mountain—one wife joins, another declines, a third was wildly unavailable. We discuss the MyPillow guy, hunting famous lions, and how many bites a dog is allowed before it is put down. Join us! Dutch doctor!
-
The 1890s Ironman
We are back at Fire on the Mountain in the Highlands, and boy do we have an episode for you. Deric has been required to wear old-timey race gear at his next Ironman. We discuss the best place to sit at a baseball game, and the Swiss scientist makes his usual appearance.
-
Taco Time
We switch up the location and stop by Bartaco in LoHi for some delicious tacos and margs. And somewhat delicious conversation. We discuss why Sam doesn’t have life insurance, how long it will take our wives to start dating after we die, whether vinyl is worth the time, and the best/worst fast…
more -
We’re Back
Happy Easter, loyal listeners. After 5 months of scheduling conflicts, vaccine-misinformation-related squabbles, and lawsuits, we have made our glorious return. We discuss the Broncos obtaining another quarterback they did not earn, Deric and Sam’s booze-fueled dinner, and Jer’s prestigious…
more -
Hollywood, Bitches
DAN steps in for Sam & Jer! Deric and LWJ’s main pinch hitter travel to the City of Angels and squeeze in a podcast between stuffing their faces with chicken sandwiches. They discuss things you used to enjoy when you were a kid that you still enjoy, fake best man speeches, and staying in hotels …...
-
Coffee With Jer
Deric and Jer take a road trip to Berkeley, CA, and do a podcast over coffee. Beyond that, I (Sam) have no idea what they talk about. I’m on maternity leave and completely checked out. Honestly, I’m posting this four or five days after they recorded it because I completely forgot. The guys are...
-
Parent of the Year
To start the episode, Deric inadvertently (or so he says) introduces his 12-year-old son to pornography. Luckily, this podcast doesn’t have the reach to alert child protective services. The rest of the show predictably struggles without Sam (he’s writing this). My god, these two with the masks…
more -
An Evening in Golden
Jeremy is again absent for this podcast (second time in three episodes, for those keeping track. We’re not keeping track or anything, but maybe you are). So Sam and Deric do “dinner without Jer” on a Saturday night in Golden, Colorado, as they wait to enter the Adam Carolla standup show. They…
more -
Sam Outs Himself As QAnon
In this episode of the Lunch With Jer Podcast, Sam inadvertently outs himself as a member of a far-right fringe group. Well…not exactly. But kind of. Let’s just say that 35 seconds into the podcast, there’s a revelation so shocking that we spend most of the episode trying to come to terms with…
more -
Betrayal in the Highlands
Jer throws the podcast into flux by bailing last second. Sam and Deric scramble to cope, and manage to produce this episode of Lunch Without Jer. Topics discussed are Valentine’s candy, Deric’s V-Day tomfoolery, and Jeremy’s job-related fire drill and subsequent betrayal. Also football.
-
We’ve Nearly Survived the Pandemic
Right? Almost? Or like, we’re halfway there at least? Allow us to discuss. Everyone’s busy, but we also find time to engage in a little locker room talk, and try to figure out why some backup quarterbacks play a lot better than others. There’s a chance Joe Biden is mentioned. Remember that guy?...
-
Why Is No One Talking About Masks?
On this episode, we hit on a subject no one seems to be discussing: masks. We also discuss the NFL team formerly known as the Redskins and why people are the way they are. Our best yet!
-
The Triumphant Return
Finally, we emerge from full-blown quarantine (none of us have gone anywhere, at all) and return to the same restaurant we last visited on March 11: Fire on the Mountain, south-side. It’s good to sit down and eat wings again. We discuss the state of the world, lay out the exact plan on how to …...
-
Breakfast with Jer
We come to humbly with another quarantine-cast, on this, Cinco de Mayo 2020. Topics include whether or not Donald is a good communicator, what will cure the COVID, and who makes the best taco bowls (hint: it’s Trump Tower Grill). Also, Jer freezes almost immediately. Join us and soldier on.
-
Quarantine-cast
Today we check in from the comfort of our own homes, pandemic style! Deric set up a Zoom. We discuss current events, pop culture, and lost jobs. Also, we get through the entire 4/20 episode without mentioning weed once. Where else in the podcast world will you get THAT? Check the episode below…
more -
South Side, Bitches
We descend upon Fire on the Mountain SOUTH (there’s a new location) and sample the delights while trying not to get the COVID. Then we spend most of the episode desperately trying to coax out Deric’s elusive airport story.
-
The Equipment Broke
Well, the gear broke but our captain Deric still found a way to deliver this podcast to you. Finally, an update on why it’s been so long since we’ve done a podcast and what is the true meaning of life.
-
Getting Weird in Venice Beach
Another football road trip has brought us (well, two of us) to a much warmer yet equally weird climate: Venice Beach, California. We eat nachos, drink beer, and discuss the human scenery.
-
Sam’s Revenge
In an unprecedented move, we release our second episode within a week. Sam returns to wrestle (metaphorically, not physically…he’d lose) the coveted “second chair” away from Jer, and another two-man podcast ensues. Topics include rectal exams, etc.
-
We’re Back
Live from the Pacific Northwest…we are back.
-
Service Hogs
Sam strong-arms the guys into going back to Fire on the Mountain, and everyone has to pay for lunch. The crew discusses the word “hog,” service dogs, weird baby names, airport etiquette, the “Lunch with Jer” effect, and much more.

Sam is on paternity leave after the birth of his first child, yet the boys press forth. We come to you from GQue Barbecue once again and discuss the pertinent issues of the day.

-
The Funeral Procession
Back at Fire on the Mountain, we talk funeral processions slowing you down, the weirdest delay you’ve ever had in travel, and the proper way to tell someone about your vacation. Plus, Jer pays up on the quarterback bet!
-
We Welcome Doug & Almost Die
On this episode, we welcome friend of the podcast and long-time external contributor Doug Ruth to the show in person. We compare the 1980s to the present day and try to determine which era is better, recap Dead & Company weekend in Boulder, and discuss people who don’t camp. PLUS, we each eat one...
-
An Actual Episode
The technical difficulties have been fixed, and we give you a full, entire recorded episode. The wings are hot, the drinks are cold, and this week we discuss: Sam’s video game confession. Jer’s son’s graduation. Deric’s weird guys at the gym. The Lunch With Jer Revolving Quarterback Bet, starring...
-
Fire the Technical Director
Today we have a whopping eight-minute podcast due to frequent and drastic technical failures while recording. Please listen anyway and we promise to do better next time. Topics includes: The Great Lunch With Jer Cookout Video games (maybe) Ipads (Did that make it in?) Richard Sherman being a dick...
-
The First Podcast of 2018
The boys meet up again to eat wings and discuss how they can support Sam’s mental well-being in the new year. Plus, they clean out the idea box of outdated topics, and talk road rage and (probably) the Mormon faith.
