In this episode of Misadventures with Kiki and Cowboy, we learn two very important truths: 1) Kiki should never be underestimated when she wakes up before 7 a.m., and 2) Cowboy should always be suspicious when she does. Kiki hatched a plan involving coffee, scripts, and a morning radio show contest that could win them a Florida vacation with the Kid Kraddick Morning Show. Cowboy thought it was just another one of Kiki’s “wild ideas” (read: potential chaos generators), but before he could even finish his coffee, she had written a full-blown script and was dragging him to rehearse lines like they were auditioning for Broadway.

The comedy really takes off when they start recording their “top nine reasons” they should join the family vacation. Rehearsals sound less like a polished pitch and more like a sitcom blooper reel—misread lines, debates over whether “six kids in college” sounds believable, and Cowboy realizing he’s basically a co-star in Kiki’s unscripted reality show. By the end, they’ve got multiple takes, sound effects, and the kind of marital banter that proves they’d either be the highlight of the vacation or the reason the radio crew never does this contest again. Either way, listeners win.

Top 5 Takeaways:

1. If Kiki is up before dawn, something is definitely about to happen.

2. Coffee is not a luxury—it’s survival fuel when married to Kiki.

3. Writing a “simple 60-second promo” somehow turns into multiple takes, edits, and existential debates about tuition costs.

4. Cowboy has mastered the art of facepalming as a second language.

5. Their chaos is precisely why they’d make the perfect guests on a family vacation.

The "Misadventures with Kiki and Cowboy" Podcast: A Hilarious Trainwreck of French, Nostalgia, Nose Hairs, and Church Singing

Welcome to the comedy rollercoaster where chaos reigns and sense goes on holiday. In this episode, Kiki and Cowboy embark on a journey through their muddled thoughts, terrible French accents, and completely unnecessary deep dives into ski movies from the '80s.

Act 1: Francophiles in Shambles
Cowboy attempts French with a nasal flair, Kiki dismantles his efforts with wit, and both butcher the language worse than a baguette in a blender. Miscommunication reigns supreme, with Cowboy declaring “Arrêt” (stop) and Kiki interpreting it as “a red.” Throw in a few snooty waiter jokes and voilà—a French vocabulary lesson no one asked for.

Act 2: The Nose Hair Saga
Cowboy recounts the epic tale of plucking a nose hair so long he swears it touched his brain. This prompts Kiki to question his grooming habits, leading to a debate over trimmers and the pain threshold of men of “a certain age.” Cue uncontrollable laughter and Cowboy’s declaration that the hair was a “brain antenna,” possibly explaining his questionable life choices.

Act 3: Ski School or Snooze School?
Cowboy dives into an IMDb black hole, passionately defending the legacy of Better Off Dead while simultaneously researching obscure '80s ski movies (Ski School, Ski Patrol—who knew there were so many?). Kiki tolerates this rabbit hole with sass, questioning why they’re even talking about it while Cowboy insists this knowledge is vital for Christmas trivia.

Act 4: Drinks and Disasters
In a clumsy pre-show setup, Cowboy drops a cable clip into Kiki’s drink, sparking a Steve Martin The Jerk reference. Kiki sarcastically recounts the “grubby finger retrieval attempt,” ensuring Cowboy’s dignity is reduced to ashes.

Conclusion: Two Dollars and Chaos
The duo wraps up by reminiscing about Better Off Dead, quoting “I want my two dollars!” and applauding the paperboy-turned-producer. By this point, the audience is either in stitches or wondering how they stumbled into this fever dream of a podcast.

Moral of the story: Always trim your nose hairs, never let Cowboy handle your drink, and watch out for rogue cable clips. Bon voyage!
