KISS FM Afternoons with Reed and Eddie

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 12th. Reed comes into the show absolutely starving after basically eating an entire box of Girl Scout cookies for lunch, and the hunger completely takes over the rest of the episode. That leads to a Top 5 debate over casual dining restaurants, where Eddie somehow misses Texas Roadhouse while Reed can barely focus because food sounds too good. The guys also get into Hot Take Tuesday with debates about tomato soup, careers, healthcare, and whether all dogs are actually good dogs. Reed shares the latest TikTok rabbit hole that’s taken over his algorithm involving a personal injury lawyer, Eddie gets put through a rapid-fire trivia game, and the guys relive 90s fads like Pogs, Starter jackets, hacky sacks, and Reebok Pumps. Plus, Mateo pitches his future Taco Tuesday restaurant empire, Reed spirals into conspiracy territory again, and Eddie spends most of the show trying to keep things from completely going off the rails.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 8th. Reed is starting to believe men never really stand a chance on Mother’s Day after the guys react to a viral video telling moms to basically lower expectations before the day even begins. Eddie isn’t sure he buys that logic, but both agree Father’s Day never seems to get the same energy. Plus, Eddie’s very first DoorDash order immediately goes sideways after accidentally double ordering Chinese food and burning through a $50 gift card plus another $40, Reed talks about his emotional attachment to his socks while the guys discuss "weird habits men don’t realize they have", and Reed’s body apparently now shuts down after sitting on the floor building LEGOs. They also get into bigger Chipotle portions, off-brand Girl Scout cookies, aliens potentially abducting Eddie earlier this week, and a Top 5 web browser game that leaves Reed just a little angry by the end.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 7th. Somebody may or may not have 3,400 unread emails… and now IT is threatening to shut everything down. What starts as a simple mandatory security training turns into a full conspiracy theory about spam folders, phishing scams, unread email previews, and why Reed thinks the system is out to get him. Eddie spends most of the show trying to process the chaos while also debating whether we’re living in a simulation, arguing over the Funyons Mandela Effect, questioning why May still feels like winter, and breaking down a movie that somehow only made $309 at the box office. Plus concert stories from seeing Bush in Oshkosh, bottomless appetizer strategy, and a very serious discussion about whether a monkey could do the weather forecast.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 5th. Reed is fully in the Cinco de Mayo spirit while Eddie could not care less, which somehow leads to an entire show debating tacos, Taco Bell, what foods are “gringo or legit,” and whether a Crunchwrap Supreme deserves respect. Reed also discovers a $200 electric salt spoon that shocks your tongue into tasting salt, asks if tossing apple cores count as littering, and starts spiraling about printer ink subscriptions. Plus, Reed and Eddie try to figure out what they’d actually do with four extra hours in the day, roast Met Gala fashion, and realize most of their “hot takes” really weren’t hot at all.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 4th. The guys are fresh off a big weekend in Madison where they officially became back to back award winners. Reed is fully leaning into it while Eddie starts floating ideas like a pizza party and a full list of demands now that they’re “multi award winning broadcasters.” They try to figure out what happens next and if going three in a row is the only option now. Eddie takes a swing at Reed’s Top 5 most rewatched movies, Reed decides he could probably be a better weatherman than actual meteorologists thanks to a study about chimps predicting storms, and they go all in on Star Wars for May the 4th with strong opinions on characters. Plus, Gen Z gets called out for “discovering” things that already exist, the Cash Cube finally wraps up with no $10K winner, and they debate how long a house would survive without mom. It’s confident, chaotic, and exactly what happens when you let award winners talk.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from May 1. It’s the final chance at the KISS FM Cash Cube, and they’re already debating if people will think it’s rigged if someone wins at the last second, while still throwing out their best guesses. Then it takes a turn into a very real question… why can we eat so many deviled eggs, with Reed admitting he crushed six in minutes and Eddie getting dared to bring them to the WBA's this weekend. Plus, Reed struggles through a Top 5 BBQ foods list that he thought would've been easy, they play Kentucky Derby or Kentucky Derpy, discuss how they’ll look at the awards, react to how much money TV stars still make in residuals, question the Great Wall of China, and somehow end up trying to turn Wisconsin into soccer fans before the World Cup.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from April 30th. There’s still a box full of money on the line with only a few chances to crack it, but Reed is already feeling oddly nostalgic about it ending. Reed also admits he trusts AI with basically everything, including winning arguments, which Eddie says is cheating. Things spiral when Eddie hits his breaking point over cold water in the bathroom and suddenly starts “fighting for our rights” and talking about unionizing the station, while Reed tries to keep it a little more strategic. They get into banning weird baby names, why Maverick is ruined, what they’d rename themselves, and call people out for spending $8 on coffee while complaining about gas prices. Plus, an update on the vending machine scandal, things people learned way too late like the dark truth behind “this little piggy,” a very awkward Thank You Thursday moment, and Reed once again bringing up Eddie’s ongoing “gambling problem” after a simple coin flip gets way too serious.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from April 29th. With just a few chances left at the $10K Cash Cube, Eddie wants someone to finally win, while Reed claims he’s done leaning into it… even though he also thinks they might’ve cracked the code with AI. They then discuss the “what if” moment about winning back-to-back awards this weekend and how they’d act the next day, which turns into building out their rider list, including unlimited Bubbler, Costco pizza every day, a Slurpee machine, fresh socks weekly, and full control of the A/C. Somewhere in the chaos, they expose a bag of Funyuns for basically being empty, debate whether facing the shower says something about your brain, try to figure out the perfect taco, and argue over pickle Oreos after Reed surprisingly loves them. Plus, Eddie recaps his kid’s concert experience, and let’s just say… the real problem wasn’t the kids.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from April 28th. Reed is trying to figure out how many chances are left to crack the KISS FM Cash Cube and quickly realizes… math might not be his thing. That somehow turns into a conversation about how weird hands actually are, which may or may not have just been a setup for another terrible dad joke. They get into why pregaming is making a comeback, and Eddie casually floats the idea of breaking a world record for drinking in 24 hours. Then it’s hot takes that get uncomfortable fast, including tipping, HR, and whether closure is even real. Plus, superhero debates, terrible superpowers, and Eddie getting ready for his son’s choir concert.

Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from April 27th. It’s the last week of the Cash Cube and Reed is already struggling with his routine getting thrown off, while Eddie tells him to get over it. Reed claims he’s mastered fashion, sets Eddie up to fail the Top 5 wedding songs, and then things spiral into Crumbl cookie deodorant and why Cool Ranch Dorito deodorant might actually work. They call themselves “idea guys” with Chip Happens, debate why people don’t talk anymore, and Reed goes full conspiracy mode over missing NASA scientists. Plus, Eddie says he’s a hiker now and Reed absolutely refuses to believe it.
