Episode 17: Non-Toxic Masculinity

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 18:27:43 GMT

On a very special episode... no guest this week but we get some "bro time" in on this one. It's a deep dive into gratitude, mindfulness of our time here and navigating our current world. It may not be our funniest episode but it's a good conversation.

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 07:44:16 GMT

Episode 13: Laughs with Lola with Guest Carrie Foster

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 19:12:59 GMT

Carrie Foster sits down with the gang to talk about graphic design, costumes and burlesque. Yep, it's that kind of an episode so get comfortable (and maybe a little uncomfortable.) It's a slightly NSFW episode but a VERY fun conversation! You're welcome.

Episode 12: Louisville to La La Land with Guest Wayne Shepherd

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 04:35:12 GMT

The gang pulls back the curtain to talk about the magic behind movies and television in a fun and informative conversation with visual effects supervisor, Wayne Shepherd. It's also a timely discussion about current events. But don't worry. We still act like idiots so it's a normal episode.

Fri, 06 Jun 2025 13:22:21 GMT

The gang is in a new studio (for now) as they chat with fellow creator Tevan Morton about what it means to be a creative, the future of using AI and the collective love of movies. The nerd level escalates in this one while somehow also feeling like a grown-up conversation... almost.

Episode 9: Love is in the Air

Tue, 25 Feb 2025 15:00:08 GMT

Monkeys, skunks and love. The gang somehow makes them all connect as they discuss Valentine's Day, movies and recent current events. No guest on this one but it's just as entertaining as a Bob Seger cover band. It'll all make sense. Trust us.

Episode 8: What Had Happened Was... Bonus Episode with Guest Ryan McArdle-Jaimes

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 16:15:10 GMT

Nobody's perfect. We had some technical difficulties with our last episode and had to cut some things out from the video. But our egos wouldn't let that recording go to waste so enjoy a little extra time with us and our guest, Ryan McArdle-Jaimes.

Wed, 25 Dec 2024 20:02:42 GMT

Episode 4: September Fools with Guest Jaclyn Mullin

Thu, 26 Sep 2024 22:15:32 GMT

We finally dilute the stupid - by adding our first guest! Jaclyn Mullin stops by to dive headfirst into the silly. We talk work/family balance, music festivals and strong job interview skills. We also bring to closure an April Fool’s joke that’s been ongoing since April 2022!

Episode 3: Rick Vs. Deer

Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:29:00 GMT

Again, lots of topics covered in this one - the emerging EV (electric vehicles) industry and KY-based battery manufacturing, watching the Olympics and Rick’s alter ego, The Deerhunter, was uncovered. We also had a To Catch A Kyle segment update, and the gang gets educated on the new use of a classic term, “raw dogging”.

Thu, 22 Aug 2024 14:02:25 GMT
