Welcome to What the Actual Drake, the podcast where Ashley and Greg Drake try to make sense of adulthood in real time — with zero filters, questionable decisions, and a whole lot of laughter. From marriage and parenting to personal growth, petty arguments, and the everyday curveballs that keep life interesting, nothing is off‑limits, and everything is fair game.
This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s the messy, honest, hilarious version of life that usually stays behind closed doors — except the Drakes hit record. If you’ve ever wondered whether everyone else is just winging it too, the answer is yes… and these two are living proof.
Pull up a chair, pour a drink, and join the chaos. It’s about to get Drake‑level real.
🎙️ WHAT THE ACTUAL DRAKE: We Have No Idea What This Episode Is About We came in with a plan. We had topics. We had intentions. And then, as usual, we talked about literally EVERYTHING. 😂 We kicked things off with weird news and the topics of the week before spiraling into TV, movies, world records, and technology. Greg showed off his new iPhone Duo, because apparently we’re at the age where new technology is exciting enough to become an entire podcast segment. 📱 Then we took a hard left into full-blown millennial nostalgia. We’re talking childhood memories, questionable trends, and the age-old debate that will apparently haunt our generation forever: WHAT COLOR WAS YOUR MATH FOLDER?! 📚 If you know, you know. If you don’t, we have questions. We wrapped things up with sports and a look back at the anniversary of the original iPod.. a tiny piece of technology that changed how we listened to music and permanently altered our ability to function without headphones. 🎧 From breaking news to childhood trauma disguised as nostalgia, this episode has a little bit of everything and absolutely no ability to stay on topic. Come for the news. Stay for the nonsense. Leave wondering why you suddenly remember your middle school Trapper Keeper. 😂 Listen now, and tell us: WHAT COLOR WAS YOUR MATH FOLDER?! #WhatTheActualDrake #MillennialNostalgia #PodcastLife #90sKids #2000sNostalgia #SportsAndShenanigans

We Bought POGs. Because Adulthood Is Going Great.
🏈⚾🏒 Football, hockey, White House drama, and a full-blown POGs comeback? Welcome to What the Actual Drake.
This week, we covered college football, the World Series, and Minnesota hockey before diving into the real-life thrill of gas station fuel rewards. Because nothing says adulthood like getting excited about saving a few cents at the pump. 😂
We also unpacked the latest current events, including the drama surrounding the White House press secretary, before taking a hard left into the past with a good old-fashioned millennial throwback: POGs. And because we have adult money and questionable impulse control, we went ahead and bought an entire collection. Who needs retirement savings when you can relive your childhood?
Of course, we couldn’t stay away from college football for long. We circled back to Archie Manning and the Texas Longhorns to rant about the latest disappointment, because apparently, we’re not done being emotionally invested in college athletes who have no idea we exist.
Sports takes, political drama, nostalgia-fueled spending, and the kind of tangents that make you wonder how we got here in the first place.
It’s another episode of What the Actual Drake. We meant to have a normal conversation, but… well, you know how that goes. 🎙️

Football, True Crime & Greg’s Terrible Calendar.
College football, NFL chaos, questionable Vikings QB decisions, and a full-blown debate about whether time is a social construct. You know… a normal episode. 😂
This week, we talked about college ball from the weekend, upcoming NFL games, and whatever the hell the Vikings are doing with their quarterbacks. Then things took a darker turn as we dove into the Christa Pike case and the death penalty.
From there, Greg decided to challenge the very fabric of existence by arguing that time is NOT a social construct and that a 13th month with 28 days in every month would somehow be a good idea. Ash thinks this is boring as fuck. Greg remains committed to his terrible calendar.
And because apparently that wasn’t enough chaos, we ended up taking a full nostalgic trip down Millennial Memory Lane — Pokémon, movies, Millennial trends, toys, and all the random crap that defined our childhoods. Butterfinger BBs? HitClips? Absolutely. If it made us say, “OH MY GOD, I remember those,” it made the cut.
Basically: football, true crime, existential arguments, bad calendar proposals, and aggressively Millennial nostalgia.
Come hang out with us for another episode of What the Actual Drake. 😂
