Kicking Butts and Smoking Chickens: ODO 232
It's been a busy couple weeks and you know I've gotta tell you about it. First off, the boys had a taekwondo tournament a few weeks ago. And, despite not coming home with nearly as many medals as some other recent tournaments, we were more proud of them all than probably any other tournament day...

I'm A Giant Bread Making Nerd: ODO 231
Not much going on this week besides me spending way more time than usual baking bread and watching nerdy TV. In my defense, the baking is my wife's fault. She asked me to make bread. The nerd bit is totally on me. I started watching Star Trek: Picard. In the news, we're going to court for some...

Plasma Delays, Surprise Drugs, and Revisiting Night Court: ODO 230
Lots of rambling to start off this time. I can't help it. I just have to tell you everything I've been up to since the last time I talked to you. A little bit about how my kidney problem affected my plasma donations. Some garden talk. A bit about grinding up brisket for hamburger. Ya know, my…

Pain, Pain, More Pain, and Some Gardening Too: ODO 229
It's been a while so this one is EXTRA LONG! I recently got my spring garden planted. This is my most intentional and, from an output perspective, ambitious planting yet. I got sidelined hard by a couple of kidney stones. And last but definitely not least, I address the two major family losses…

Christmas Cooking and Snappy Spending: ODO 227
Hope you’re having a pleasant holiday season. It’s been crazy busy around here as usual. We had a well executed, albeit tiring, Christmas, even if I did have a slight miscalculation in cooking Christmas dinner. We’ve been watching some new stuff over the holidays. And the US government is not…

Busy Days, Bad Coke, and Black Adam: ODO 226
I'm all over the place this week. But what's new about that? I'm finally doing our garage renovations. I'm scrambling to make french toast. I'm Live taste testing a Dreamworld Coca Cola. And I'm reviewing "Black Adam." Of course there's also a very packed "Bullshit From The News," with more…

Stupid Is As Stupid Does: ODO 225
After surviving NAPODPOMO, I’m trying to get back into the swing of doing more of the regular segments. In the news I have a battle for who can be the biggest dumbass.

Intro To NAPODPOMO 2022
I've been out for a while and I'm using national podcast post month to try and jump back into the podcast. Full transparency, I'm doing all of these raw straight to my phone with no editing or post production and improvised music cues. The plan is to just do a quick in and out story every day to...

Snowballing From Monsoons to Letterkenny and Back Again: ODO 224
The snowball that is my train of thought is all over the place this week. Why is it I keep starting off by talking about the weather?

Monsoons, Medals, and Old House Memories: ODO 223

Is Anybody There? : ODO 222
It's been 5 months since I've been able to sit down behind the mic. So naturally I ramble on about all of the why's. Then get into a mini rant about comedy, I graze over a few things that have happened in the last few months, and I challenge YOU to keep me to my word to be back again next week to...
-
Working With My Hands: ODO 221
This week inadvertently became all about working with my hands. From fixing up my late father-in-law's truck, to working in the garden, to my many years of cooking, and even to some degree podcast editing I come to realize that I really just like working with my hands. If you want to buy some…

Another ER Trip and An Unfortunate Paranormal Activity: ODO 217
When it rains it pours. Barely 2 days after getting home from the hospital from our last adventure, I had to rush our dog to the emergency vet, not once but twice in two days. I also offer my less than stellar thoughts on "Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin" on Paramount+. Leave me a voicemail…

One Long Trip To The Hospital: ODO 216
No news this week. Just telling the long complicated story of how my son broke his arm this week and the days long process of getting him patched up. From a tumble in taekwondo class, to visiting two separate emergency rooms, to finally needing surgery to get everything put back together, it was…

Lost In The Woods: ODO 215
Another week of sounding different, but this time I think it's from my new allergy meds. And in typical "me" style, I have a really long meandering story about our latest camping trip, getting lost hiking multiple times, and being sick that technically does relate to that first point. Speaking of...
-
Too Much Talk About Genitals: ODO 214
This week is a weird one. I'm not gonna lie. After some health talk, I get into our recent TV habits, including the new Hulu series "Only Murders In The Building." I give a brief garden update, and a heads up on our upcoming fall camping trip. Then the news takes an unexpected turn into the world...

Singin' In The Car Voice: ODO 213
