Welcome to Lacquered up, a comedy podcast hosted by three guys who love nothing more than cracking open a cold one and getting their hands dirty with a project. Join JC, Justin, and Gio as they share their ridiculous stories and adventures in building and drinking. From building furniture and home renovations to trying out new breweries and restaurants, these guys have a knack for finding humor in every situation. Whether you're a seasoned woodworker or just enjoy a good laugh, Lacquered Up is sure to entertain. So grab a drink and join in on the fun!
We've got special guest on this week Jay, who flew thousands of miles for literally no other reason than to be on the podcast. He helps us explore proper beer etiquette, what the hell you're supposed to do when you're invited on a boat, and even give us some life lessons along the way.

First Jobs, Worst Jobs, No Jobs
The boys are back to talk about our first jobs and all the weird shit labor laws let you get away with for small businesses in the early 2000s, that time Justin almost got arrested for stealing, and how beach and pool antics have changed as we've gotten old af. Grab a drink, pull up a lawn chair, and listen to three middle age dudes who just refuse to grow up drone on about the weird shit we've lived through.

Being an adult takes a lot of time/sorry we were gone
Listen, alright, being an adult just like takes up a lot of time. Moving to a new house, installing flooring for your burgeoning business, or traveling to new countries to expand your horizons or whatever. It's a long one to make up for missing a couple weeks, we go over all the things we've been up to, review a well beloved beer, and of course talk about fun drinking run ins with the law. Can you guess which of the Lacquered Up Boys love musicals and which one spent the night in a homeless shelter due to some truly spectacular choices?

Body by bud light, side hustles by Lacquered Up
In a surprise to absolutely no one, JC hurt himself this week doing some stuff we all know he's too old to do but isn't that everything nowadays? We're not out playing sports and pickup games, our bodies just can't take it anymore as we could in college. Speaking of the old college days, we all had a little something something on the side right? It might have been your weekend thing, your weeknight thing, might've had to even be out late for it, or get up stupid early but it was WAY worth it. I mean you NEEDED the money! Side hustles are great and some of us still have them, some of us turned them into full flown businesses, and one of us is digging out his old side hustle skills to get himself a fancy chair.
Stay young, stay buzzed, and stay tuned!
