The fact of the matter is, as we get older, we get worse at making friends. It's a common problem and yet no one ever likes talking about it. Whether it's awkward conversations or off-the-wall hot takes, we're here to give our thoughts on the matter. We hope you'll come alongside us and who knows, maybe find something interesting along the way.
The guys get back in the mix and immediately do what they do best: spiral into jokes, weird questions, and a story that should have been simple but turned into a week-long meat project.
They talk Thanksgiving and the reality of showing up to family stuff with kids, unpack the idea of figuring out “your role” in different rooms, and then the episode takes a hard left into snack sticks, eBay parts, Walmart runs, and the kind of “we have everything we need, but we have nothing we need” frustration that makes you want to become a vegetarian for five minutes.

Episode 51 | Why Reconnecting Feels Awkward
This one starts tired, honest, and a little unmotivated — and somehow turns into one of those conversations that sneaks up on you. The guys recap a weekend full of family time, aquariums, zoo trips, hunting mishaps, dryer repairs, bourbon finds, and a borderline-aggressive raccoon problem. Along the way, they stumble into a much deeper question: how do you actually reconnect with people you care about when life keeps getting busier?
From busted dryer belts and frozen band-aids to missed texts, “I miss you” messages, and the pressure we put on ourselves to be better friends, this episode is about intentionality — not perfection. It’s funny, reflective, and very real, with the kind of tangents that only happen when you’re talking with people who genuinely know each other.
Quiet moments, loud stories, and a reminder that sometimes the hardest part of friendship is simply reaching back out.

Episode 50 | The Onion
In this 50th-episode special, the guys are finally together in person — fire pit crackling, marshmallows out, and absolute chaos from the jump. The conversation drifts into what this podcast has become: a place to show up, be honest, and stay connected.
Chandler shares the origins of the podcast — the nervousness, the dreaming, and the intention behind asking “How was your weekend?” in a world where nobody slows down long enough to answer it honestly. Kyle and Justin talk through the evolution of their friendship, the onion analogy, and the funny truth that setting up the microphones often becomes the excuse to actually sit, breathe, and hang out.
It’s reflective, funny, warm, and very Episode 50 energy — a celebration of friendship, intentionality, and doing something meaningful together, even if it takes 15 minutes just to get through the intro.
