The Courtney Show

Day two of the monstrous zit on Afton's forehead and Courtney and Brando aren't letting her forget about it. We also learned about hidden talents, shared our Tuesday Tidbits and heard about a wild Netflix lawsuit that we can't stop thinking about. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Leepy's, white squirrels, tater skin talk - we covered a lot of ground for a Monday and it felt good. We bestowed the title of Dummy of the Day to one unlucky soul during People Is Dumb. We learned that the great generational sock war is over in Talkin' Bout The 'Tok. And since it's Monday, we shared our Strong Opinions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Afton thrives in a demerit/gold star environment so Courtney has instituted a new system to track her performance. Spoiler alert: Afton gets several demerits today. We also hear about bombshell information that people found out by accident via DNA test kits. We decided who we would want by our side in a zombie apocalypse. And we took a quiz to determine who is the most St. Louis. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our beloved Chicken Salad Chick has celery in it?!? This can't be true. Courtney and Afton come to The Chick's defense. We take a vodka thief husband to Court's Court, Tim Convy stops by to hang out for a bit and we tell you What's Poppin' this weekend.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

St. Louis icon Joe Buck was our special Who's On The Hotline Guest today and we loved getting to talk to him about all things St. Louis, his new hosting gig for ESPN Jeopardy, Taylor Swift's wedding and his childhood days shopping in the husky section. Plus we had a special edition of Questions For Mom - this time it was Questions For The Mayor And we took the Wheel Of Questions for a spin. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Courtney's algorithm has landed her in a corner of Threads that's all about Tree Law. We weigh in on neighbors cutting down trees - what's right and what's not. It's Tuesday so you know we have Tidbits for you and Talkin' Bout The Tok goes a bit off the rails but we all got some laughs out of it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A thrilling weekend for Courtney included a rock, paper, scissors showdown. How did she do? We take an inside look at her strategy. We also have an update on the elusive Costco Esprit sweatshirt. Plus, we have a tough time choosing a dummy of the day in People Is Dumb, we share our Strong Opinions and hear about big concert mistakes. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Friday so you already know what that means...Lance stopped by for Missed Connections so we made him do his Meramec Caverns voice for us. We also had a Friday edition of What's Poppin' and we covered Animals In The News. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What a day! We started the show with the fire alarms going off and we were forced to evacuate our studio and wait for the fire department to arrive and clear the building. Don't worry - everything is fine! Then we had the ray of sunshine himself, George Wallace, spend some time with us in the studio. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jam. Packed. Show. Today. We had a Loryn Nalic on as our Who's On The Hotline guest - she is a local James Beard Award-Winning chef. We also brought in the wheel for Wheel of Questions, heard Questions For Mom, and our old pal Tim Convy hung out for a bit. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There's a new crustless peanut butter and jelly sandwich hitting the market and the text started flooding in about other sandwiches that hit just as hard as the Uncrustable. Do you agree? We also took Memory Lane back to old days at Six Flags and talked about what's new now that the park has been sold to Enchanted Parks. Elizabeth Gotway from Six Flags joined us to discuss. Plus, Tuesday Tidbits!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

During Strong Opinions, Afton calls on drive-thru patrons of the world to just say "no" to pulling into a parking spot to wait for food. Is this the start of a revolution? Probably. We also talked about our very busy and exciting weekends, tried some delicious chocolatey bread in Food Court and debated the best boy band songs of all time. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Much like Big Brother, you have to expect the unexpected on The Courtney Show. Today we talked about weird autographs on weirder items, we got The Ick with Lance and gave you a bunch of deep teases to look forward to on Monday. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We all know the childhood song about beans, but is it "musical fruit" or "magical fruit?" We settle this debate once and for all. We also hear about Courtney's bra measuring woes, play For Real Or No Deal with names of Lifetime movies and talk about What's Poppin' this weekend in St. Louis.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is it normal to deal with secondhand embarrassment? We weigh in on this week's Wheel Of Questions.

See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Update from yesterday's cliffhanger...Afton does have The Shingles. Lots to unpack with that, of course, but we also share our Tuesday Tidbits, hear Questions For Mom, talk about the words you forget with menopause brain fog and we have to take a trip to Mankato (if you know, you know). See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Courtney's back from her girls golf trip all refreshed and Afton starts the week off with big news - she thinks she has "The Shingles." Is this typical paranoia or a real health issue? It's hard to tell. We also played For Real Or No Deal with shenanigans from Courtney's trip, shared our Strong Opinions and talked about the weird games we used to play in the pool as kids.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Well not just to look at the numbers, of course. Our buddy Tim Convy spent the day with Brando and Afton trying to continue fort holding while Courtney is out. We made Timmy look at the numbers and we also took a tribunal approach to Court's Court and looked at What's Poppin' for 4th of July weekend. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Courtney's vacay continues so we had our friend Bethany from the St. Louis Cardinals stop by and spend a few hours with us. We made her answer the Wheel Of Questions, played For Real Or No Deal and talked about all the cool stuff still to come this summer at Busch Stadium.

Comedian Mychael Anthony, who opened for Dustin Nickerson at Laughs at the Lincoln, joined us for the show today to help fill in while Courtney is on vacation this week. Mychael used to work for TMZ so he had some great celebrity knowledge to share with us. We also shared our Strong Opinions and The Falconer and The Puzzler make an appearance during First Five Notes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A hilarious edition of Questions For Mom inspired the title of this episode of the pod. We also talked to Lance for some Missed Connections, made Courtney continue to work ahead of her upcoming vacation and asked - is "Josh" the male version of "Karen?"See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Afton's convinced she has sepsis (again) after her sunburn took a turn for the worse, Brando's kids are headed to Florida and we clock the exact moment Courtney has checked out ahead of her girls golf trip that starts Saturday and continues all next week.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We had to change more of our background music and it's really annoying and threw us off our game a little, but we powered through. We had some fun with the Wheel Of Questions, talked to Ryan Hamilton as our Who's On The Hotline guest and one of our favorite sponsors, The Carn Barn is back for sweet corn season.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Afton's starting off the day with some gripes - there's a mini bike gang in the neighborhood and an early bird chirping very loudly outside her window. We also shared our Tuesday Tidbits, learned British slang, Tim Convy stopped by and Zane's mustache played First Five Notes. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We learned some Victorian slang words today like gigglemug, coffee sisters and half rats. Feel free to start using these in your everyday conversations.

Since we were outside collecting food for Operation Food Search for the second half of the show, this podcast only includes the portion of the show where we were in the studio. The setup of our outside broadcast prevents us from being able to get the audio from the outside part of the show. Sorry for the inconvenience! Thank you everyone who donated and stopped by!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Courtney was golfing for a good cause - Hawthorne Animal Hospital - this morning so it was up to Brando and Afton to hold down the fort and we think the fort was held down. We settled some heated disputes in Court's Court, heard a long list of Questions For Mom and gave you a rundown of What's Poppin' this weekend, See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Did you know Daniel Descalso - who was on the 2011 St. Louis Cardinals World Series winning team and is currently the Cardinals bench coach - loves making sourdough? He was our Who's On The Hotline special guest and was so fun to talk to. We also did a little Normal Or Nope on the Wheel Of Questions Today and we talked about squishy dumplings and porch geese in Talkin' Bout The Tok.

See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Brando's Strong Opinion was really more of a Normal Or Nope - is it normal to "savor your socks" when you get a new pack? We think not. We also taught you all kinds of Costco tips you may not have known and explained how sticking your tongue out could lower stress.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If someone you were interested in asked you out for a "drinky-poo" would that give you the ick? We actually kind of like it. We brought Lance in for his expert reading of The Ick. We also talked about the Panera Boulder, must-try stuff in the Costco bakery and Brando did a Finally Friday Song, but we're not allowed to podcast that anymore so check our socials!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Brando is living it up in Mexico this week so our good friend Sean O'Brien spent the morning in the studio with us.

We're just going to be upfront with you...there are some things missing from this podcast episode and you'll notice right away. We've had a lot of issues with our episodes being flagged and removed lately so we've been trying to adjust with how our audio files are recorded for the pod and we hit a snag today. Today's show open, The Ick and the show close all feature songs that we can not use on our podcast so those are missing today and we're really sorry! We believe we've fixed the issue for future shows. Consider this that half-day show we've been talking about for years. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What is going on in men's bathrooms? A story about AI coming up with a better configuration for urinals lead to an interesting conversation about the weird set-ups we've seen in public restrooms.

Thanks to our audio getting flagged by a big podcast company, the vibe at the end of the show just wasn't quite right. But that's ok because the rest of the show was fantastic! Started off strong with toenail and testie talk, then Tuesday Tidbits and texts about the foods your parents got when you were going to have a babysitter come over. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
