In Episode 63, Nick and Miranda kick things off by debating the art of watching TV week-to-week like it’s 2005 again. They rant about never-ending movie universes, question whether aging out of kids’ birthday parties is actually that tragic, and unpack two AITA stories featuring some seriously questionable siblings (okay fine… one’s technically an in-law).

Not alone at least because teamwork makes the dream work 😉Miranda shares two AITA stories - the first is a bit of a callback to the discussion on sharing files with coworkers, and the second incited a much bigger conversation than either host imagined. So you tell us - Would you cancel a friend trip to help your spouse move into your new home?

In this episode of The Rant Files, Nick kicks off the episode with a discussion about work/life balance. Together, they rant about sharing OneNote and Excel files - Surprise to absolutely no one, it's a big NO! Nick shares two AITA stories - one involving a gym altercation between a man and a woman that likes to film herself, and another about a 17 year-old girl questioning if she should resume speaking to her mother. Then they debate whether being invited to try new foods is really that bad. At the end, Nick wraps things up with a feel-good story about 18 dogs that were rescued!

Tune in to listen to the family drama that was posted on Reddit!#amitheasshole #aitareddit #redditstories #comedypodcast #familydrama #sharedinterests

They debate whether store loyalty programs are really that bad (Hint: Miranda signs up for literally all of them). Nick wraps things up with a feel-good story about a high school mechanics class that donates refurbished cars to single mothers! #aita #podcast #comedypodcast #estranged #loyaltyprograms

In Episode 58 of The Rant Files, Nick and Miranda rant about minimalism and RV living. Miranda shares a listener submission for AITA - What do you have to tell your fellow listener about her situation? They debate whether moving on from popular shows, leaving online reviews, and letting hobbies die are maybe not that bad. Then Miranda rounds out the episode with an AITA story from Reddit from a man who questions whether he's the AH after telling his in-laws that they'll NEVER live with him and his wife after they abandoned them in their time of need. #minimalism #rvliving #aia #listenersubmission #hobbies #reviews

In Episode 57 of The Rant Files, Nick and Miranda rant about family vloggers and influencers that include their children in content. Miranda rants (and we mean, RANTS) about movie reboots and remakes. Nick introduces an AITA story from a woman questioning if she's the AH for skipping out on her own surprise birthday party. Together, they debate whether seemingly never ending TV shows, gas station food, and making TikTok videos are really that bad. Then, Nick wraps up the episode with a story about a woman in the UK who won a mansion! Lucky lady! #influencers #nostalgia #moviereboots #aita #podcast

In Episode 56 of Rants on the Rocks, Miranda announces that January's documentary episode is finally here!

In this week’s episode of The Rant Files, Nick and Miranda rant about the dry winter and discuss the love/hate feeling about being night owls. They debate whether planning & sitting down to set up your goals is not that bad. This week's AITA story focuses on a man who asks if he's the AH for leaving his phone on do not disturb and telling his wife not to call him.
