Great news! BJ has finally - FINALLY - taken delivery of his new car. If you've been following the show, you know the long and winding road he's been on to get his shiny new wheels. Well, it's finally done. Not exactly as planned - nowhere near as planned, to be honest - but at least the drama is over.

Also this week, Bill discovers and immediately falls in love with WalMart Home Delivery. One of those things - like a backup camera in a car - that you didn't know you needed until you got it... and now you can't live without it.

Lastly, Bill and his partner are now a singe-car family. Bill is considering an electric bike to get him too and from pickleball, when his partner Mary is working. Stay tuned!

House news for Bill.... Car news for BJ. First, Bill shared news about settling into his new house and office setup. The good news... all the unpacking is pretty much done. Of course there's still organizing, but so far, so good.

Meanwhile, BJ recounted attending a Trace Atkins concert at SeaWorld and discussed upcoming medical appointments requiring a brief "vacation" stay in Tampa.

But .. sparks flew as BJ talked about his super-frustrating experience with a car dealership where his ordered Hyundai IONIQ 5 was double-sold! Is that even a thing? Needless to say, BJ is "considering other options" in the car market these days.

On the show this week, Bill talked about using Ai to find the info he needed to make something work on his "smart" TV. Apparently, the TV was too smart for Bill (or - hopefully -the other way around.)

This was also the first week that Bill did the show "live and direct" from his new office in his new house! Exciting times, for sure. But for now, there's a lot (a LOT!) of organizing and putting-away of all his and his partner's stuff.

Happy Days! The show got a brand-new 5-star review from a long-time (radio) listener who had recently discovered the podcast. The episode concluded with BJ sharing updates about his health concerns and his delayed car delivery, which was supposed to have been delivered over a month ago.

In this episode of the BJ and Bill podcast, the boys talk about places to live, moving, and all that comes with that "challenging" process. Bill is moving to a new house - yes, a real house, not an apartment - and all that goes with it.

BJ mentioned a potential radio broadcasting opportunity, though no deal had been finalized yet, so he was cagey about the details. Stay tuned!

There was more about electric vs. gas cars, insurance issues for both, and more.

For those who lived in and around Fort Myers and Cape Coral "back in the day," there was no way you didn't know what the Shell Factory was, right? Well, it's the end of the line for the iconic SW Florida tourist "attraction."

This week, BJ and Bill talk about the ongoing demolition of the historic Shell Factory in North Fort Myers. This leads to a bigger discussion of all the big changes that continue in the area... traffic headaches, the rebuild of Fort Myers Beach and more.

BJ shared his success as a "digital creator" on Facebook, revealing he earned $57.22 over five months from monetized posts, and discussed his recent heart transplant anniversary post which went viral with over 1,000 likes.

Will he or won't he? Get the new car, that is. On this week's show, BJ shared his experience with a potential car purchase and a conversation with ChatGPT about a possible discount. It's more of an upgrade, really. His lease is up, and it's time for the next set of wheels.

Sadness in Gainesville, Bill's current home. The Gator men's basketball team is out of March Madness, after suffering a very disapointing loss in the tournament.

Fun stuff from BJ and his daughter, after the daughter and her partner met a real, live celebrity at Sea World... and they even had dinner with them!

Other random notes: Stuff about dogs, buying furniture, really, really old history from Fort Myers, and Bill getting ready to move to a new house in Gainesville.

It doesn't happen often, but it did this past week! BJ and Bill were excited and grateful to read a real, live email sent to the show! It was from another fellow podcaster, too. Shoutout to Rick Peterson of the "Always Wondered" show, also on our parent netork, The Podcast Playground.

Plenty of news this week. Bill and his partner are moving to a new, very OG house in the Gainesville area. For you architecure fans, it's a style called "Mid-Century Modern," and that means the middle of LAST century, the 1950's. Very cool.

The boys also talked about the Oscars a bit, and did some deep-memory dives about the last time they saw a real movie in a real theater. Been a minute, for sure!

Also, a bit of sad news... the "funeral" last weekend for BJ's daughters' pet - a bearded lizard! He's gone on to a better place, we're sure.
