Podcast Overview

Welcome to 2 Day Rental, the podcast where two geeky dads, Cory and Steve, dig through the dusty shelves of pop culture—past and present. From VHS-era classics to streaming hits, toy aisles to trailer drops, we talk movies, TV, games, and the glorious chaos of parenting through it all. Expect opinions, nostalgia, late-night debates, and questionable takes—served fresh like a Friday night rental and returned late every time. No interviews. No experts. Just two guys figuring it out, one rewind at a time.
