Episode #15 – Top 5 Female Actors

This week, the guys tackle a very subjective list: their Top 5 Female Actors of all time. Along the way, things go exactly as you’d expect…

Patrick casually drops the fact that he once got hit by a car while out for a run, Paul shares an unforgettable (and slightly chaotic) canoe experience involving his wife, and Ryan tells a wild story about how his brother somehow ended up meeting a very famous actress.

Generational gaps quickly show themselves when Patrick and Paul start naming iconic actresses from the 80s—leaving Ryan and Zach completely confused and questioning their life choices. While appearances do come up (let’s be honest), the focus stays where it should: on talent, performances, and what makes these women truly great actors.

As always, expect laughs, stories that go off the rails, and plenty of debate over who belongs on the list—and who was criminally left off.

🎙️ Top 5 Female Actors — press play and let us know where we got it right… and very wrong.

Episode #14 – Top 5 Male Actors

Before the list even begins, Zach and Patrick dive into a theory that sparks immediate debate: why is it so much easier for guys to rank and agree on their favorite male actors than female actors? What follows is a surprisingly thoughtful (and occasionally ridiculous) discussion that includes plenty of talk about handsome dudes and undeniable screen presence.

After a lot of back-and-forth, passionate arguments, and a few reluctant concessions, the group somehow manages to come together on a final Top 5. It wasn’t easy, and not everyone walked away happy—but that’s kind of the point.

Somewhere in the middle of the debate, the guys also officially set a date to watch Shutter Island together—because apparently ranking great actors naturally turns into a group movie night commitment.

Expect strong opinions, minor defeats, major respect for great performances, and the kind of debate that makes you pause the episode just to argue with us out loud.

🎙️ Top 5 Male Actors — agree, disagree, and tell us who we absolutely missed.

Episode 13: Top 5 Department Stores

We had way too much fun with this one—and yes, we already know… we’re going to get roasted. This list is missing some obvious department stores, includes a few that most people would absolutely deny count as department stores, and somehow still makes perfect sense to us. We leaned into it anyway.

Ryan and Patrick went all in on the thrill of saving big money at… you guessed it, while Paul and Zach brought their own unique flavor and curveballs to the conversation. Definitions were stretched, rules were bent, and laughs were nonstop.

This episode is full of nostalgia, hot takes, questionable logic, and the kind of harmless chaos that makes for a great Top 5 debate. It’s lighthearted, ridiculous in the best way, and—if we’re being honest—our moms would be very proud of this one.

Episode 12 – Top 5 New Year’s Resolutions

New year, new goals… and a whole lot of honesty.

Don't worry, we laughed a ton, too.

In this episode, we break down our Top 5 New Year’s Resolutions, and it turns out not all of them are lighthearted. PK brings a more serious and sentimental take, Zach shares some powerful goals around health (his own and others’), Ryan keeps us laughing along the way, and Paul lands on a resolution that feels simple—but is anything but.

This one surprised us. There were laughs, quiet moments, and some real reflection.

We genuinely loved recording it, and we hope it gives you something to think about as you head into the new year.

Episode 11 – Top 5 Condiments

This week, the guys dive into the sauciest episode yet — literally. Ryan unveils his undying love for anything creamy (no shock there), PK pledges allegiance to all things tomato- and vinegar-based like he’s running for office on the Ketchup & Pickles Party platform, and Zach enters a full-blown monologue about Kickin’ Ranch that honestly might qualify as a dramatic performance. Meanwhile, Paul delivers the most surprisingly thoughtful condiment list in podcast history — leave it to him to turn sauce into a science.

From heated debates to questionable pairings, this episode proves that condiments say way more about a person than they probably should.

Come for the laughs, stay for the strong condiment opinions you never asked for but absolutely need.

Episode 10 – Top 5 Childhood Trouble Moments (Things You Got in Trouble for as a Kid)

In this episode, the guys take a trip down memory lane and unpack the very on-brand ways they each got in trouble growing up — and shocker, it turns out none of them have changed all that much.

Paul admits he talked way too much (no surprise to anyone) and had a knack for breaking things. PK confesses he was constantly too loud… and once cheated on a Chemistry test. Yikes. Ryan fully embraced his identity as the class clown — which somehow is still his job description today. And Zach? Let’s just say there was some reckless driving, maybe a fight or two… probably best not to mess with him.

As the stories unfold, a theme becomes hilariously clear: every single one of these guys got in trouble for being disruptive — the same energy that makes them who they are today.

Lots of laughs, a little nostalgia, and plenty of “that explains everything” moments.

Episode 9 – Top 5 Superpowers

In this week’s “interesting things” recap, the boys go way off the rails right out of the gate. Paul gives an absurdly passionate update about his brand-new toaster (far more than anyone asked for), Zach talks about quality time with his good boy Goose, Ryan casually breaks the news that THERE’S A NEW POPE, and Patrick shares his first-ever Facebook Marketplace experience—which is exactly as chaotic as you’d imagine.

Then we dive into our Top 5 Superpowers, where a shocking group realization emerges: all superpowers are really just… manipulation. Manipulating time, nature, space, matter, or people. And that’s kind of insane when you think about it.

From PK wanting to read minds and teleport, to Ryan’s obsession with super speed, to Zach’s craving for total all-knowingness, to Paul trying to sneak “love” in as a legitimate superpower (???)—we cover it all. Plenty of laughs, a few surprisingly deep moments, and a lot of “what would you actually DO with that power?” existential spirals.

It’s ridiculous. It’s thoughtful. It’s us. Tune in, nerd out, and let us know what superpower you’d pick.

Episode: 8 - Top 5 Bad Habits

This week, the guys get uncomfortably honest—and way too relatable—as we break down our Top 5 Bad Habits. PK admits he still can’t stop biting his nails. Ryan confesses he refuses to put his laundry away… and also has a habit of farting in public (yes, really). Paul defends his obsession with keeping his desk spotless. And Zach realizes most of his bad habits tie back to his health—and an unhealthy amount of caffeine.

Somehow, we all agree on one thing: social media and doom-scrolling is destroying us, and none of us can put our phones down.

We also wander into some, uh… “less than appropriate” avenues, especially when our “interesting things” segment derails into hilarious stories.

A chaotic, honest, laugh-til-you-snort episode—join us!
