The Twaddling Along Podcast

We tell campfire stories…Twaddling Along Style. What does that mean? Well, we ramble on for far too long, make up convoluted stories, have to edit out large blocks of video, and in general just twaddle about for an hour. Hooray for us. Also, Aesop ain’t got anything on our fables.

We’re back after a 2-week, 2-day absence (my fault). This week, we delve deeply into the spy world… the animal spy world that is. Are Pigeons bugging you? Well, they might actually be bugging your phone lines. Are Squirrels secretly traveling to D.C. with audio equipment? Will a Polish Bear ever get the rank of sergeant? All that and more on this week’s Twaddling Along Podcast.

My tummy hurts … I was going to get to it … I don’t see it … you do it so much better than me. This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast we throw every husband under the bus spectacularly. I mean, there is no going back gentleman, its time to pack it up and accept that we all deserve to be on the couch for a few days. To all you women out there putting up with us, we’re sorry.

You wake up and find yourself trapped in your own body. The room is quite, but you have the unsettling feeling that you may not be alone. You desperately look around for help only to find a shadow lurking in your doorway. You can only make out one thing on it, its anime convention style hat. That’s right Twaddling Afficionados, the trio delves deeply into the truly spooky and somewhat unsettling lore of the shadow people. We delve into esoteric teachings of the Hebrews, the fascinating world of the Jinn, and the modern day tales that are sure to keep you up in the night. But don’t worry, we also venture into the possibility that it could happen to you. Did I say don’t worry. What I meant to say is PANIC! All that and more on this week’s Twaddling Along!

Behold the majesty of the Lady Columbia with her mountain’s of majesty hued in purple, her laden soil of green, and some idiot trying to survive going over a waterfall. That’s right, peeps and pals alike, this week the Twaddling Along Trio tackles the thunderous all-American (minus the Canadian side) Niagara Falls. We talk about the survivors, those not so fortunate, the future and the past of the mighty and majestic sight. Also, Danny has kidney stones, Jake tells jokes, and Josh’s love letter to Canada is unpatriotic. All that and more.

You find yourself in a sunny field, surrounded by falling leaves of a nearby tree. You allow yourself to see all your problems fall like the leaves. Then…The Twaddling Along Trio comes in and RUIN EVERYTHING. That’s right listeners, today we are diving and delving into the world of ooohmmms and lotus positions as we talk about meditation. Do you meditate? Do you want to meditate? Well, find a YouTube video because heaven (or nirvana) knows we don’t know how to find our inner peace.

Raise your banners boys, its time to get spooky AND historical. On this week’s Twaddling Along Podcast Jake takes us back to the Revolutionary War to talk about the spooks, sprites, ghosts and ghoulies. Of course, we start off by Josh telling us a story about jabbing Danny in a dream and laughing, and we just devolve from there.

Once upon a time, in a land much like our own, people came together and created something great, marvelous, and epic. It was meant to showcase a country on the rise and the grit of a people determined to rise from literal ashes. And then, it burned again. Today we’re talking about the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago, and it’s a fun one. Cracker Jack, Aunt Jemima, refrigeration, serial killers, political assassination… my goodness, could we ask for more? Join the trio of Twaddlers to find out.

It starts by counting your steps to the bathroom, and ends with you ramming your car into a slower driver because you know best. This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, we talk about that internal scoreboard that you set up for yourself every day. Are you racing against yourself to get out the door? Are you secretly writing the best emails in the office? Are you competing with your brothers wordlessly every day? Two truths and a lie for this podcast all. Plus, check out our new and amazing portraits from Jake.

No…You are not dreaming. We are back after a whirlwind of a vacation down in Florida. Do we talk about the record crowds, the arctic winds, the disease and suffering we went through? Maybe for like a minute. But for the rest of the time we ignore our own story and focus completely on the worldwide myth of giants. Are they fallen angels? Are they just mutants of nature? Can Josh find a way to say poop a dozen times. Find out on today’s Twaddling Along Podcast.

It's that time of year when you start making goals for yourself. Well…The Twaddling Along Trio is also thinking about how to better ourselves, too. We thought we’d try our hand at running a marathon, until we came across this absolutely crazy story on how a marathon can go REAL bad. Join us as we delve into a past that includes rat poison, stolen peaches, drunk Cubans, cutoff shorts, cheating, lying, and more at the 1904 Olympic marathon. This is a fun one.

Happy New Years Twaddlers! This week, on a very special episode of Twaddling Along, we decide to give unsolicited advice about marriage. What’s our credentials? We don’t have any, so take everything with more than one grain of salt. In this episode you will find that Jake hates dishes, Josh chokes on hair, and Danny is hoping he’s not sleeping in the dog house. Its a fun one.

Happy Auld Lang Syne and welcome to 2026 fellow Twaddlers! On this year ending episode, the boys delve into the rather spooky, sometimes terrifying tales of time slips. What would you do if you were shot backwards (or forwards) in time. As a side activity for this week’s episode, see if you can see how many time slips you can hear on the episode, because we had to edit out LOTS of coughing.

Merry Christmas everyone. Twaddling along the Victorian Era again as we chat about the astounding author, Charles Dickens. Really, we just wanted an excuse to quote different Christmas Carols. Also, Josh over emphasizes, Jake mocks Alec Guiness, and Danny has a cold. So jump on, tune in, and have a wonderful holiday season.

Twaddlers, Waddlers and those inbetween, welcome to a very optimistic episode of Twaddling Along. This week we discuss Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. We start from the ground up. Are you fed, clothed, comforted, loved and feeling a little transcended. Want to know how to get there? Well, don’t ask us. We just hope that we can be a part of your journey to self-fulfillment and enlightenment. Or, just let us make you laugh a little, think a little, and never have to worry if we are subject matter experts.

Utah…People working together…Utah…What a spooky place to be. We are back home today at the Twaddling Along Podcast as we delve even further into the spooks of Utah. Today, Jake takes on the helm and freaks us all out with tales of Hwy 666, abandoned schools, cults, women in white, and all sorts of spooky nonsense. All the while, Josh and Danny hide under the covers, not out of fear, but because we are tired.

Avast Ye Matey’s and welcome aboard another sea-worthy adventures from you trio of buccaneers. Today we take sail on the topic of pirates. Also, I refuse to do any other nautical puns. Instead, why don’t you take a listen as we explore the connection to pirates and Goliath, Atlantis, Peter Ustinov, and pretty lady’s hats. All that and much, much more twaddling, all for your earholes. Take a listen Matey’s.

This week on the Twaddling Along Show we tackle the feast and feasting together. Why do we have feasts, fiestas, fetes, and all manner of reasons to get together and eat? Are we not the anti-social animal we make ourselves out to be? The boys go deep on this one as they explore the psychology behind the feast. Plus, Josh doesn’t scream at a spider.

Twaddling Along climbs Mt. Everest in search of the legendary monster, the Yeti. What is a Yeti? Frightening mythological beast? Lost orangutan? A convenient corporation known for well-made coolers and tumblers? There really is only one way to find out. Also, Josh sees multiple spiders during the episode, we introduce sound effects, and our deep abiding love for Wilford Brimley comes out.

It's the beginning of the week of Halloween, and we know what you really want…a lecture on history! The Twaddling Along Trio tackles this trick-or-treating holiday with an in-depth look at why we do what we do on Halloween. From carved rutabagas, plots to assassinate King James I, ancient feasts that worried about witches, and modern-day capitalism, we discuss it all with our usual flair.

Happy Halloween…now how does that make you feel? The Twaddling trio takes on the deep psychoanalysis of the spooky season on today’s episode. Is there more Frankenstein in Freud? More Jekyll in Dr. Jung? More Skinwalker in Skinner? More Chupacabra in…..Chomsky? Alright, that’s enough of that. Take a listen to find out the wacky way that the brain works around Halloween, and how watching a scary movie may be…relaxing?

Do things go bump in the night? Do objects mysteriously move? Do you have a deep mistrust in the youth of today? Then you may have a Poltergeist. The Twaddling Trio tackle this spooky tale today as we delve into the fantastical and phantasmical world of the “rumbling ghost”. Will Danny scream? Will Josh cry? Will Jake find something else to do? Find out on this week’s episode.

Today on the Twaddling Along podcast, we dive into the life of Her Majesty, Queen Victoria. This enigmatic ruler, whose name remains one of Britain’s most beloved, certainly had a colorful past. From her disdain for babies and obsession with her husband to her nitpicky parenting style and notably short stature, one can only imagine the beheadings we’d face if this episode had aired 150 years ago. Also, Jake bemoans the loss of a major organ, Danny bemoans the burden of living independently, and Josh bemoans moaning in general. This is what happens when we take two weeks off, people! Welcome Back!!!

350ish days have passed in this mad-mad world of twaddling, and on this week’s episode, we are going to talk all about it. You know those clip shows from the 90’s? Its that, but in audio form. You thought we could twaddle about history, the paranormal and the human mind? You ain’t seen nothing yet. Thank you for sticking around with us this year, and we hope to have you as a listener for a long time yet to come.

The Twaddlers are sticking close to home as we venture into the fun and fascinating tale of the Bear Lake Monster. This Utah original (if you don’t count literally every other lake monster out there) has all the makings of a fascinating tale. Intrigue, suspense, lampoon, and even a family connection the Twaddling Along Trio. Listen as we ruin Jake’s favorite place in the world.

Lightening, Thunder, and Freedom! That’s what's on deck for this week’s Twaddling Along Podcast. We jump right in with an hour of nothing but Franklin. Benjamin Franklin, the entrepreneur, polymath, and genius, went on to influence every aspect of the beginning of the United States of America. We tackle the often good, sometimes bad, flawed genius that shaped not only generations, but centuries of American history. In the meantime, we also talk about misconceptions of time, the invention of bifocals, and Danny’s budding middle-aged interest in history. All that and more.

We are soooooo tired. Seriously, doesn’t everyone want to go to bed and stay there? This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, we explain how you can. Well, more like we try to justify why we have bad sleep hygiene. We also discuss why you may not be sleeping, sleep apnea, sleep paralysis, eating honey before bed, and much more. Don’t forget to stay all the way to the end so that you can see just how tired we really were. Also, COVID was weird….right?

Are we alone in the Universe? Are we a reflection of the greater cosmos? Do we fear the darkness knowing that within the realm of the stars lies a deep enemy, unfathomable for mere mortals to comprehend? These are questions we completely ignore in the first of our chats about that all too exciting subject…Aliens. We definitely twaddle on this one.

What better way to start off your week than with a bit of discussion on a topic that is timely, newsworthy, and altogether serious? That’s right, the lads of the twaddle are taking on Mountain Men. We explore the origins of the beaver pelt “extravaganza” and the remarkable, heroic, and sometimes unsettling history of the Mountain Men. Also, Jim Bridger was an influencer; the Mountain Men Rendezvous were the predecessors of Burning Man; and Jake’s deep skepticism of history is finally revealed—all that and more on today’s episode.

Have you ever feared that your butt would fall off if your belly button comes unwound? Have you fretted about peanut butter? Are you scared of the numbers 3,7,53, and 186? We want to let you know that you are not alone. The Twaddling Along Podcast is here for you on this week’s podcast. We took on the common phobias, now we tackle the strange ones — the really strange ones.

There are subjects, and then there are SUBJECTS. This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, we tackle an oft-recommended topic: the majestic and tremendous trotters of Bigfoot. We presumptuously call this Part 1, wholly due to the fact that such a huge subject matter deserves more than one part. Also, because Jake opened a thesaurus and has more big words he’d like to try. Tune in as we wade into this huge (dare I say Yeti-sized) topic.

We are back with a whole new Twaddling Along Podcast. This week, the boys get dolled up as they dive headfirst into a discussion about cosmetics, makeup, and other such beauty products. Don’t miss out on Josh having a breakdown while trying to explain ancient Japanese beauty standards, Jake obsessing about prehistoric lead poisoning, and Danny admitting to using concealer. All that and more.

"Twaddle" is defined as foolish, trivial, or idle talk. We thought we understood the term ( I mean, look at our name), but it pales in comparison to the bleak and macabre universe of reality television. Join the boys as they explore the genre, from its unexpected historical roots in Nazi Germany, to its modern, ever-changing commentary (or lack thereof) on our culture. After all, when it comes to "twaddling along," does anything do it better than reality TV? Yes. We do. Take that, Jeff Probst.

That’s right Twaddlers, we are back with another episode all about the spookiness of Filipino folklore. From smoking men in trees to crying demon babies, we tackle a whole new host of spooks, sprites, and a few spirits. Will Jake finally admit that he believes in the supernatural? Will Josh just stop causing headaches for the editor? Will Danny forget to release this for 24 hours? All this and more on this weeks episode (sorry about the late upload all).

This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, we make wild predictions and try to get rich ladies to pay us money… no wait…that was the person we are talking about. We tackle the topic of Nostradamus. Was he a seer, prognosticator, and all seeing eye of the current world, or is it a bunch of hogwash? Danny takes a hard and cynical stance on Nostradamus even though he picked the topic. Jake tries to bring levity and giggles a lot. And Josh…well…he prognosticates with the best of them. Also, AI writes about Sylvester Stallone. All that and more on today’s episode.

Brush up your table manners this week on the Twaddling Along Podcast as your meandering trio takes on the hoity-toity world of manners, etiquette, and social norms. Do you set the table right? Do you refrain from showing the bottom of your feet to others? Most importantly, do you remain absolutely silent in the Ming Dynasty royal courts? If not, why not brush up on our own version of finishing schools? Please and Thankyou.

A touch of death, a cloak of black and…Billy and Mandy? This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, the boys tackle Death himself (or herself) as they explore the spooky history of the Grim Reaper. Many have wondered how to deal with death…well…the boys have the answer. It may include disrobing and screaming at the top of your lungs.

Did you hear that?! Its the Twaddling Along Brothers, back with another superfluous clamor on the subject of the Great Emu War. In this episode, Josh makes up words. Danny is short, fat and proud of that, and Jake hates his own topic choice. All the while, the lads meander here and there on topics ranging from Star Trek, to post-World War I munitions. Join us for ALL the fun.

This week on the wildly popular Twaddling About Podcast, the heroes of destiny take on superstitions and the psychology behind them. Can Jake find solace in knocking on wood and breaking his mothers back? Will Danny come to a sudden and stark realization that he may have undiagnosed OCD. Will Josh find a new group to offend…cat lovers. Find out more on this week’s episode.

The boys tackle the ever-intriguing Skinwalker Ranch in the Uintah Basin this week on the Twaddling Along Podcasts. While almost getting to the point, Danny reminisces about the 90s, Josh finds a new phobia, and Jake mixes up Chuck Jones cartoons with traumatizing events. All in a day’s work for this troublesome trio.

This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, the boys bring in an exceptionally special guest to tackle one of history’s great mysteries—the secrets of the pyramids. Enter Ken McBride, the charismatic and wise patriarch of the Twaddling crew, armed with his own unique take on the history, culture, and downright creepiness of these ancient wonders. But can Ken withstand the chaos his sons inevitably bring to the table? Will Jake land on a new catchphrase? Can Danny untangle the mysteries of Cher before next week’s episode? And will Josh manage to offend yet another unsuspecting group of people? The answers lie within this week’s Twaddling Along Podcast. Don’t miss it—you’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you might even groan (but in the best way).

This week on The Twaddling Along Podcast, the gents take on a harmonious (or discorded) note as they delve into the world of music and how it affects the mind. Will Danny make more effort in future podcasts? Will Jake find the perfect soundtrack to his life? Will Josh….do…..Josh things? Find out this week.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day ye lads and lasses. There is no better way to celebrate the high and holy St. Patrick’s day then listening to us twaddle along about leprechauns and do stereotypical Irish accents. We delve deep into the folklore surrounding the little green (or maybe red) dressed fairies, all the while veering off course. Take a listen. Éirinn go Brách from us three.

The Gentleman of Twaddle present an episode wholly dedicated to Stonewall Jackson, his brilliance, his oddity, and his death. What will come of this episode, who knows? We twaddle along just like always. Also, we forgot to start the podcast for 6 minutes. Hey…Your not paying for this! Listen now.

Today the boys explore the human condition, immediately revealing their condition as “needs improvement”. With a topic like drive and procrastination, who could blame them. Danny desperately tries to hold an adult conversation, while Josh offends even more people. And Jake…well…he has an acid flashback to drivers ed. All that and more on Twaddling Along.

This week on The Twaddling Along Podcast, the boys dive into local Utah legends about haunted places. Danny, the believer; Jake, the non-believer; and Josh, the meh-believer, try to figure out what is happening in the beehive state, all the while rambling off-topic about presidents, early Utah industrialists, and more. Are you scared?

Love is in the air this week on the Twaddling Along Podcast. The Boys tackle the history of Valentine’s Day…or at least try to. Josh quickly gets distracted by the word naked, Danny finds himself waxing poetic about fertility rituals, and Jake names cockroaches. That and much more on today’s episode.

The Twaddling Along chaps tackle their most controversial topic yet as they explore the question, “What is happiness?” The blundering trio quickly swing off topic with talks of sumo’s, saunas, and pushing old people off cliffs. Will Josh get hemorrhoids? Will Danny ever know if he had a stroke? Will the AARP ever lift Jake’s restraining order? Find out as you find a little happiness this week.

Welcome back to Twaddling Along. This week on the Twaddling Along Podcast, the boys delve deeply into the near universal belief in shape-shifters and skin changers. Danny starts off strong with a deep analysis of comparative anthropology and mythology, but quickly loses focus. Josh finds another thing to worry about. Jake admits that he fears only one thing……man. In-between it all the boys get up to there usual off-topic shenanigans.

This week on Twaddling Along, we talk about the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH.
