⭐ EPISODE 4 — The Thanksgiving Special

McKain and Mason celebrate Thanksgiving with discussions of favorite holiday foods, fall weather, and the unexpected importance of ear muffs. They revisit last week’s Daniel playoff game with paint-up leader Bo Shoemake, whose optimism remains strong despite the final score. This week’s Athlete of the Week, Will Swan, shares bold ambitions for the basketball season—including his personal mission to take exclusively half-court shots. Miss Google returns with another monotone, delightfully unhelpful weather segment, followed by a rundown of crops currently in season. The episode closes with a spirited ranking of school-year breaks and a surprisingly serious PSA about Thanksgiving-week identity theft.

Hosts: McCain, MasonGuests: Bo Shoemake, Will Swan, Miss Guogle

⭐ EPISODE 3 — The Fortune Cookie

Evan and Jet bring a food-filled episode featuring Fall Fest previews, Crumbl Cookies, and the rise of TikTok mini pancakes. McCain joins them for a live fortune-cookie ASMR tasting and shares his fortune, lucky numbers, and Mandarin pronunciation. This week’s Athlete of the Week, Michaela Reed, reflects on her volleyball season, followed by an interview with Ms. Rushing, founder of the Daniel Chili Cookoff. Cross-country runner Lily Kutilek discusses region results and the potential threat—or non-threat—of snow. The episode ends with an existentially vague weather forecast from Miss Googlé and the familiar farewell: Stay classy, Daniel.

⭐ EPISODE 2 — The Halloween Episode

Mason and McKain return with a spooky special exploring Halloween traditions—from the legend of Stingy Jack to the origins of carved turnips. They highlight the best trick-or-treating spots in Clemson before turning to weekly announcements and a distinctly philosophical weather report from Miss Google. This week’s Athlete of the Week, Bobby, shares his unconventional cross-country “strategies,” followed by a surprise call from a Kansas-based stock-market enthusiast whose advice is questionable at best. The episode concludes with Halloween spirit and the signature reminder to stay classy, Daniel.

⭐ EPISODE 1 — The Pilot

In the premiere episode of Roarcast, Bobby and Jet introduce the official student-run podcast of Daniel High School. They break down the lunch menu for the week—including the shocking absence of Friday pizza—and share their plans for new recurring segments. The show also features swimmer Bo Shoemake, voted Athlete of the Week, who delivers a confidently exaggerated retelling of his performances at state. The episode wraps up with cold-weather fashion advice, early-season humor, and the debut of the now-classic sign-off: Stay classy, Daniel.
