Puddy’s Podcast

The mouse in my ceiling is still active and has now officially entered the stream as a recurring guest star. On the bright side, I finally got back into voice acting again. On the less bright side: cruise ship hantavirus outbreak. This feels like three separate save files got corrupted together.

This episode runs through a wild mix of headlines and hot takes—from a shocking incident at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner to Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson breakup drama. There’s a quick WrestleMania recap, some real-life “mouse in the house” stress, and a funny realization about having a very specific type. We also touch on Game of Thrones’ 15th anniversary confusion and wrap up with thoughts on the latest Ticketmaster ruling.

This week I recap my much needed night out from the second row, plenty of leg room, and Megan Thee Stallion making her Broadway debut and stealing the show. From there, it’s the reality check: $30 hot dogs and water, $50 drinks, and then I vent a little (okay, a lot) about my latest pet peeves. We tap into the WNBA Draft and wrap with some “wait, this is actually smart” news: Chicago’s library hookup for students and a wild new way to turn trash into clean energy. Great night, questionable prices, and a few thoughts you didn’t ask for.

I talk about the Artemis landing and pretend I fully understand space, then get real about a situation where I was definitely being manipulated, some character development, I guess. I also dive in about how uncomforable buying certain items can be, and catch on some life updates. Such as, Broadway here I come, liver cleanse is rejected, and Crypto ups and downs.

This week I open up about the unexpected guilt of moving on and how it might be holding me back from actually putting myself out there. I also get into what “self-care” really means, my first confusing dive into crypto, and questioning some questionable Instagram purchases. Then end with a quick look at NASA’s Artemis II mission and what it means for the future of space travel.

This episode reflects on a 25th high school reunion invite and how social media has reshaped connection, blending nostalgia with a heavy, emotional week marked by missed plans, medication struggles, and everyday frustrations. Through it all, there’s an honest look at loneliness, guilt, and finding unexpected support—even in unlikely places—balanced by hopeful stories, including a breakthrough turning plastic waste into Parkinson’s treatment and how Tommy Tutone’s iconic song helped inspire a cancer support helpline, reminding us that meaning can show up where we least expect it.

In this episode, I talk about surviving workplace layoffs and somehow becoming the new payroll guy because I’m the only one who knows how to use a computer. Plus, how I need to start looking for Broadway tickets because Megan Thee Stallion is making her debut, latest cooking updates, break down this year’s Academy Awards and why they’re actually called the Oscars.

It’s my birthday—and apparently Mercury is in retrograde, which may or may not explain the chaos. I’m unpacking what that actually means, spiraling (a little) about the possibility of war with Iran, and sharing wild strategy tips from a Monopoly world champion. Plus, how do you even sign up for that? Astrology, anxiety, and Boardwalk in one birthday episode.

This week, I unpack getting diagnosed with depression — and the fun plot twist where my doctor keeps disappearing like it’s a medical soap opera. I also discuss my ongoing battle with learning Spanish (my brain said “no hablo functioning”) and go down a hopeful little rabbit hole about a possible cure for colds and coughs. It’s honest, a bit chaotic, and proof that healing — and rolling your R’s — is a journey.

This week I’m breaking down the Super Bowl esperience from the food, to the commercials, the halftime show (yes, I have thoughts), and the lost bets that had me yelling at the TV. I also talk about how I survived Valentine’s Day with my dignity mostly intact, and we take a minute to show love to Brad Arnold of 3 Doors Down and James Van Der Beek from Dawson's Creek. It’s laughs, frustration, and a little heart all in one episode.

In this episode, I unpack the controversy swirling around Bad Bunny, jump into my latest attempt at discovering my cooking talents, and discuss the shocking story involving Savannah Guthrie’s mom that’s been making headlines. Pop culture, personal chaos, and serious news — all in one conversation.

I absolutely hate the snow, endured yet another round of car chaos, marveled at a guy who somehow hit a hole-in-one with one arm, and took a moment to honor the incomparable Catherine O’Hara. Snow sucks, cars fail, miracles happen and Moira Rose, Let’s talk.

In this episode, we have our first returning guest host. Together we share our personal thoughts on religion, questioning how true it feels to us and why some belief systems have faded over time. From there, the conversation naturally shifts to the political and civil unrest in the country, as we reflect on how belief, power, and uncertainty intersect in the world around us.

This episode is all about good news and good vibes. We’re shining a light on stories that inspire hope, from the Walk for Peace to animals making their way off endangered lists, and the people of Gander showing just how powerful kindness can be. It’s a feel-good conversation about what’s possible when individuals—and entire communities—step up and lead with heart.

In this episode, there’s absolutely no plan—and that’s the plan. My first guest host of the year actualy joins me in studio and we just let the conversation go wherever it wants, bouncing from sports debates and questionable hot takes to the latest news stories that caught the nation's attention this week. Along the way, we dive into new passion projects, big ideas, small wins, and the nervousness that comes with trying something new. It’s part catch-up, part therapy session, and part what the hell is going on, all wrapped up in an unfiltered, yet fun conversation.

In this episode, I recap my New Year’s Eve shenanigans, celebrate winning my fantasy football league (yes, I’m still bragging), and then shift gears to talk about the chaos unfolding in Venezuela. This episode is part recap, part victory lap, and part real-world check-in. Welcome to the new year!

2025 was a lot! I’m looking back on the moments that shaped me, the lessons that helped me level up, and all the personal wins and loses. Along the way, I touch on some of the big stories that defined 2025 and how they reminded us of resilience, change, and possibility. Also, look back on those we have lost this year and the legacies they leave behind. A honest recap of where I’ve been, what I’ve learned, and how 2025 will stick with me. Here's to 2026!

After a quick recap of my week, I then get into the unfortunate and tragic death of Ron Reiner, Trump’s grossly insensitve reaction, and Trump’s attempt to rebrand the Kennedy Center as another flex of power over American culture. Although he is terrible, I hope you have a Merry Christmas!

In this episode, we get part two of my conversation with Green Man. Together we break down the life lessons wrestling taught us, reminisce about our favorite John Cena moments, and I tell the story of traveling into the city just to get absolutely jobbed by a cancelled event. Hustle, loyalty, respect… and disappointment.

In this episode, Green Man joins the show and together we talk about the moments when friends transform into the family we rely on most. We share stories about our fathers. Their strengths, their flaws, and the lasting impact they’ve had on our lives. We close with a deep conversation on forgiveness, and how choosing to forgive can free us, strengthen our relationships, and reshape our personal journeys. It’s a warm, reflective discussion about connection, growth, and healing.

In this episode, I recap my Thanksgiving and how I am still full. Then I cover the wild story of a woman found alive in a coffin, proving naps can go very wrong. I wrap it up with animal therapy, because nothing fixes emotional chaos like cuddling a turkey apparently. Sign me up!

This week’s episode kicks off with a recap of my week. It started out at a fancy birthday dinner and ended and a fancy dinner for work. In between the delcicous food, I dive into the headline that had everyone online talking: the absolutely surreal Trump–Mamdani meeting at the White House. What happened, why it might have broken reality, and my very unqualified hot takes on the whole spectacal! I'm so full.

This week I’m catching you up on what’s been going on in my life from my voice analysis, to my new arch enemy, and everything in between. I’m also chatting about the latest updates on the Epstein documents that dropped recently: what’s actually been released, what’s still fuzzy, and why they should release everything. 

In this heartfelt episode, we delve into the poignant themes of grief and loss, sparked by the recent passing of a beloved family dog and the tragic suicide of Marshawn Kneeland.

What a week in wrestling!  AEW and Warner Brothers agreed on a new TV deal.  Is this a right move or could they have gotten more?  Cody teased a big surprise for Bad Blood that could have massive title implications.  What could it be and any chance it doesn't involve The Rock?  Carmelo and Andrade go to a seventh match, what's the payoff going to be?  Are we going to get another heel turn from Kevin Owens?  Is CM Punk & Drew McIntyre the rivalry of the year?  Was Giulia losing to Roxanne the right move?  Is Shane McMahon coming to AEW?  How massive will that be for the business and what role should be have behind the scenes, if any?

After that great video, does this mean that Roman be the one to ultimately dethrone Cody?  Now that he finally won a singles championship, we ask, why is Jey Uso so over with the fans?  Should they turn Bron Breakker face?  Stephanie Vaquer declared that she is next, but is it too soon to put her in the title picture?  There has been several Alexa Bliss teases lately, but she is not coming back anytime soon, so why start so early?  Should she pair up with the Wyatt Sicks?  Darby compared WWE to Taylor Swift & AEW to Slayer, is this a fair assessment?  MVP made his debut and made some bold statements, which leaves us asking if Swerve better off with MVP?

After years of battling, can Cody Rhodes & Roman Reigns co-exist on the same team?  With all these months in the making, what can we expect from this Punk & Drew pay off?  Is this the  beginning of the end for the New Day?  What does a match again Randy Orton do for the very young career of Je'Von Evans?  Who should be the first to win the long rumored women's mid card championship?

It was announced that Raw will be going to back to two hours until they move to Netflix.  Is this the right move and should they stay two hours after January?  PWI released their annual top 500, did they get it right with their top ten this year?  With the rumors of the Hurt Business becoming Elite, can they be a big deal or will they get lost in the shuffle of that already loaded roster?  Jey Uso became the number one contender for the IC title, will he finally get his hands on a singles championship?  Did the Bloodline actually look better without Solo?  With Darby not getting his title shot at Grand Slam, does it make sense for Danielson to face off against Nigel McGuiness?

We are back and just in time.  Sami appears to be the next challenger for Gunther.  He is the right choice to be the next opponent or could this story have waited a bit longer?  After her debut, Guilia is already challenging for the NXT Women's Championship.

Should CM Punk v Drew McIntyre main event SummerSlam?  After a surprising debut, can Kamille duplicate her success in NWA over in AEW?  Finally, what are the chances of WWE & AEW working together in the future?

On this week's episode we ask, when it's all said and done, will John Cena go down as the GOAT?  After her recent appearance in AEW, how shocking was it to see Stephanie Vaquer sign with WWE?  Where does Alexa Bliss fit in with the current roster?  How important is the storyline between Mariah May and Toni Storm for AEW Women's Division?  With the return of Mami, how screwed is Dom?  Everyone believes, but do we believe that Joe Hendry will be a World Champion by year's end?

This week we talk about the debut of Jacob Fatu and will he be a game changer for the Bloodline?  Uncle Howdy talks to Bo Dallas, was this the most important promo in his career?  With a fatal four way announced for Heat Wave, is Trick Williams in danger of losing his NXT Championship?  Does AEW have the best women's division in all of wrestling?
