-
Matt Damon is Tim Duncan
We talk The Odyssey and Matt Damon is the Tim Duncan of Hollywood. We also break down why Obsession is really just what happens when you date a woman who actually likes you, and debate which era of hip-hop was truly the toughest. Movies, relationships, rap beef and goats. A perfectly normal…

more -
Save The Bears, Let Spirit Fail
This one goes off the rails immediately. We ask the real question: if Spirit Airlines disappears tomorrow… does anyone actually care? Or is this one of those rare moments where society just collectively shrugs and says, “yeah… that tracks.” Then we get into the wildly uncomfortable (but very…
more -
Bout That Life
This episode is WILD 😂 We’re talking about a principal in Oklahoma who said “nah, not today” and tackled a would-be school shooter, an NYPD officer who really threw an Igloo cooler at a suspect (and yeah… it gets messy), and somehow the Pope and Trump are going at it… because of course they are....
-
Mojitos, Messiahs and Misinformation
Yeah… this one goes off the rails fast. We get into the whole Jake Paul situation and how people pick and choose what they’re mad about (shocking, I know). Then somehow we end up asking: if Jesus showed up today… are we canceling him too? Because history kinda says… yeah. After that it’s straight...

Yeah, Okay

Right to Bear Nubs
This episode is chaos. A quadriplegic cornhole player shoots his friend, Sweden wants to make sex a sport, men are staying virgins longer than ever… and we ask: did we completely ruin coaching by going soft?

more -
ICE Fishing
This week gets strange fast. Minnesota is making headlines for what people are calling “ice fishing” — and no, it has nothing to do with frozen lakes. NBA All-Star Game keeps feeling less like an event and more like something nobody really wants to play. The Epstein files continue surfacing more...
-
Pateria
Bad Bunny owned the halftime stage, the competing show tried to steal it, and the Super Bowl reminded us it’s as much theater as it is football. We rewind the wild history of halftime performances, react to a boxer literally losing his hair mid-fight, and talk about the Winter Olympics turning...
-
National Title
First all Spanish AOTY Grammy and Superbowl performance, Bad Bunny's run continues, we think we're the main character in everyone's movie and, Superbowl predictions.
-
Fun Facts
Minneapolis man is killed by ICE. Why exploring other planets is more delusion than destiny. Belichick gets left out of the Hall of Fame, and a mayor keeps dodging assassination attempts. Reality’s stranger than satire, so we drink and discuss.
-
Great White
Watching Rocky with our kids, turns out Rocky isn’t just an underdog — he’s wildly inappropriate, a little slow, and somehow still the hero. We talk about the Druski controversy and his mega-church pastor skits, which are hilarious mostly because he didn’t exaggerate anything. He didn’t write...
-

-
I Stole That Sh*t
Venezuela, OnlyFans baptisms, and women proposing to men. Nothing makes sense anymore — so we talk about it.
-
The Reckoning
This episode connects dots we probably weren’t supposed to. Diddy, MTV, and an era built on influence, access, and silence. Dave Chappelle’s new special lands in that same space — funny, uncomfortable, and impossible to separate from the moment we’re in. We close by asking our AI what it would do...
-

-
Cleared For Takeoff
This episode has everything: the cousin walk making its return, Thanksgiving family drama that proves blood is thicker than therapy, a once-in-a-lifetime animal encounter that still doesn’t feel real, and a first for one of our sons that most people will never experience. Memories were made....
-
Angel Reese
This episode is pure unhinged energy. A professor decides academia isn’t enough and throws hands with a student, NFL players are out here getting spit on like it’s a new defensive scheme, and fans are trash-talking pro athletes as if cardio and talent are optional. We also get into Denmark…
more -
No Habla
The government shut down, which at this point is basically America’s version of a seasonal sale. Dog cloning — because apparently when people said “man’s best friend,” some folks took it way too literally. Then we break down a Halloween Horror Nights trip that was scary for all the wrong reasons,...
-
Dick
We’re back with a triple feature nobody asked for. First: Dick Cheney dies, leaving behind a legacy so controversial it might get banned in certain school districts. Then we talk about the recent wave of deaths at Walt Disney World — because nothing says “family vacation” like wondering if Space...
-
Chuletas Again

Paper Towels

-
Save Isabella
🎙️ This week on The Carbon Footprint: The Saudis are buying EA — because nothing says “wholesome gaming” like funding your killstreaks with oil money and human rights violations. Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl — finally, a halftime show where half the crowd gets pregnant and the other half gets...
-
Alright, Show Me
This week on The Carbon Footprint: Bad Bunny’s Amazon stream —less concert, more mass pregnancy event. Nine months from now, maternity wards are gonna look like a merch line. Tylenol “causes autism” — which means the Amish either broke the system… or never stood a chance. Americans are having…
more -
Don't Spit On Me
🎙️ This week on The Carbon Footprint: The assassination of Charlie Kirk — political violence just went prime-time. Football players spitting on each other — because that's the only completion some of them will get this season. Canelo vs. Crawford — did this change this era's GOAT?
-
Secret Life of Pets
🎙️ This week on The Carbon Footprint: Cardi B back in court — and the trial sounds wilder than her Instagram Live. Druski goes full gringo Florida ditches vaccine mandates because, well… Florida is gonna Florida. And a zoo casually asking for your pets, but not for what you think it is... Just...
-
Cracker Strikes Back
🎙️ This week on The Carbon Footprint: Lil Nas X: at this point, he’s either the gay Antichrist or just the best troll since 50 Cent bought Ja Rule’s front row tickets. Cracker Barrel’s logo “controversy” — people are shocked it might actually mean crackers in a barrel. Next up: finding out…
more -
Barriers to Entry
🎙️ This week on The Carbon Footprint: A Florida county paying for everyone’s college. Yep, the same state where bath salts and alligator wrestling make the news daily… somehow nailed education better than the feds. Tyson Bagent signs with the Bears and reacts like he just won a scratch-off, not…
more -
Just Do Drugs
🎤 This week on The Carbon Footprint, corporate HR hits a new low—and it's probably missionary? It was at a Coldplay concert so, proof that “Yellow” wasn’t the only thing going down that night. 🍎 A special needs teacher with some, um, special needs 💨 Hunter Biden’s ongoing love affair—with…
more -
Black Hole
On this week’s episode of The Carbon Footprint, we explore the impact of everything from crime stats to card games to cosmic infidelity. Two mayors somehow reduced homicide rates in cities that were basically real-life Call of Duty maps. The Epstein files? Turns out the explosive reveal landed…
more -
Othello
This week, we plunge headfirst into the moral void—starting with Cristiano Ronaldo, who just inked another Saudi contract big enough to make oil executives blush and human rights quietly weep. Then we introduce the world’s most jealous woman, a walking red flag with night vision goggles and a…
more -
Gay Adjacent
We’re blowing out the candles for the U.S. Army’s birthday (don’t worry, it’s weaponized frosting), then diving into why America might actually have too many people working. Wild, right? Also on deck: ⚖️ Diddy’s courtroom drama—plot twist: it’s somehow still messier than his parties 🚫 Trump...
-
19 Crimes
AI is raising our kids, someone bottled a celebrity's bathwater into soap, and Diddy’s trial is pure madness. We connect the dots between tech, filth, and felony—with dark jokes and zero filters. Listener discretion? Highly advised.
-
Where's the Red Button
We’re curing baldness (you’re welcome, LeBron), breaking down the NBA Finals like we have courtside seats and PhDs in talking trash, and diving deep into Walmart’s wild compensation plans — because nothing says “late-stage capitalism” like getting a bonus for not crying in the break room. We also...
-
King Diddler
This week on The Carbon Footprint, we tackle the big stuff — like the new Pope (or is he just rebranded?), a 911 operator who’s had enough of your emergencies, and Warren Buffett finally deciding to retire (just in time for the market to crash, probably). Oh, and we get real about the struggle of...
