If you've ever wondered what gets pitched for a major radio show but doesn't ever make it on air... now you'll know! Erica and Jon are just "two goobs on a mic" who also happen to produce for On Air With Ryan Seacrest, and here they're talking about all their "great" ideas that didn't quite make the…
Simultaneously one of the most fun episodes, and one of the most sad episodes. Sad mostly for Erica, let's face it. But also a little for Jon. We love you all so much!
Your favorite duo is baaaack! For a minute anyway. Erica has some MAJOR life updates to share, and recaps her birthday extravaganza. Then she and Jon discuss how manifestation has truly changed their lives. AND, we have the update on the future of this podcast that so many of you have been asking for.
Your favorite besties are BACK!!! (for the time being) Checking in as we are on our way to a weekend in Seattle for Seattle Cocktail week and we have updates on Erica's bug problem, Jon's snowboarding and what the future looks like for us!
It's a new year, but it's the same Erica and Jon back at it and annoying each other on the podcast! This week, the duo looks back at what they hoped for going into 2021 and look ahead and 2022 - including some BIG goals. Jon also calls Erica out for her self destructive behavior... and vice versa. Just like usual! Happy 2022, everyone!!
It's been a BIG and BUSY week for the Almost On Air duo from the Spider-Man release, to Chargers games and lots of radio activities. BUT Jon has something he has been keeping from all of us that he discusses this week, plus should he get more into accessorizing? Erica has a test for Jon regarding Christmas movies and the pair considers what life would be life if they lived next door to each other... MERRY CHRISTMAS to all who celebrate!
We kick this week off with an LOL moment between Jon and "Erica"... and then Jon makes a BOLD statement that sends Erica into a fully-blown tizzy, and it *might* make your blood boil. But he does justify himself... kind of. Plus, Erica reveals she is back on the dating apps and we start to wonder - are we ALL the "weird one" on dating apps? Happy weekend!!
Happy FRIDAY everyone!!! First things first: we all have a price, right...? Because Erica has been getting some reaaal strange DM's and she and Jon discuss just exactly what their price would be to be a sugar baby. Plus, Jon has a bone to pick with his Spotify Wrapped, we discuss his newfound love of weddings (but marriages are still iffy) and the duo are heading off to Jingle Ball tonight!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO OUR PODCAST FAMILY!! We are so thankful for each and every one of you... and we apologize in advance for this episode being completely scatterbrained. Hope you all have an amazing holiday weekend and sending all our gratitude and love your way! XO, Almost on Air

PLUS, do we have an idea of which album Taylor will release next?! Join us for a VERY Swift hour, and hit us up on social with all your theories as well.
Erica and Jon have a LOT to debate this week and it all starts with the art of a spray tan. And let's just say, it isn't Erica who got one this time. The duo also dives into what kind of band Jon would be in if he was in one, singles day 2021, Applebees and... should we all just choose to settle? Keep your eyes peeled for a special RED re-release episode this weekend, too!!
Another week here at Almost On Air and we're breaking down the important things like - how hot is Pete Davidson REALLY? Is it time to decorate for the holidays? And did you benefit from the isolation of the pandemic? Erica also helps Jon brainstorm ideas for his birthday party, the pair discuss their highest values and Jon could be getting a new trophy soon!
It's a whirlwind episode this week ranging from a scary experience Erica had over the weekend all the way to how change is hard and if we have experienced imposter syndrome.

Happy Sunday from your fav podcasters who absolutely did the episode way later than usual. Jon and Erica quite literally get in a fight right here on air today, but we also recap the MOST AMAZING SHOW from this weekend, share something you SHOULD do in the mornings, and talk about how perspectives on certain life events change as you get older. Sorry for the late episode - happy Sunday Funday!

We're sharing Erica and Jon's best moments over the years, debate if we're still co-workers, play TRUTH OR DRINK with your submissions, and dissect our feelings on that viral #couchguy. We love you all so much for being here and we can't wait for the NEXT 2 years.
There have been some massive changes for Jon and Erica this week, and as always, the duo keeps it as real as it gets. There are ups, downs, and everything in between in this episode, but grab that bottle of champagne because we DO all have something to celebrate together!!! The pair also cover weddings, speeches, and... the saxophone? We'll be back next week for our TWO YEAR anniversary - we love you all a whole freakin' lot! Thanks for being on this ride with us.

Plus, is it ever OK to have someone on your "back burner"?
This is a WHIRLWIND of an episode, let me tell ya. We talk what makes a successful 'The Bachelor' audition video, chat about Simone Biles' decision to pull out of the Olympics, and get deep into a conversation about mental health. Erica nearly cries while we cover work/life balance, and thennnn we share a hack about men with hairy chests and Jon gets a little too personal.
Someone is having a bad day on the Almost on Air podcast today - so we're turning that day around! We talk about bad wine, the lies our parents told us as kids and Erica has something important to tell Jon. Plus, Jon is starting a new challenge at his gym, we have brand new words on dictionary.com and for the men out there: how many close friends do you REALLY have?!
Somehow, the two of us haven't killed each other in the recording of ONE. HUNDRED. EPISODES of Almost On Air!!! But mannn does Erica come close in this one.

Another Friday and we're BACK from our road trip! This week someone asks the other if they would be their emergency contact, we talk about dying (wtf) and Erica is genuinely so annoyed with Jon. Over toxic traits. GEAR UP FOR THIS ONE because you *will* have an opinion!
Ever wondered what we sound like when broadcasting from a literal public park while its cold, windy and maybe even drizzling outside? No? Us either. But now we all know! Today we talk Erica's bad driving, spirit animals and debate the power of vulnerability and confidence (and are they kind of the same?) Our road trip ends tomorrow and we've had SO MUCH FUN doing this with you all following along!!
The Almost On Air Road Trip continues - this time coming to you from a not *technically* great lake (and yes we fight about this). We recap our time in Napa, Jon makes a revelation, and we share the MOST Napa thing to ever happen in the history of Napa. Maybe. Plus, men's underwear and the key to being a successful wingman/woman.
It's the first stop on the Almost On Air road trip! Today Jon and Erica are stopping in Napa with the one and only - Jake the producer!

We're spending the long weekend together with friends and are podcasting in person together for the first time in over a year and it feels SO GOOD!! Jon has a crazy road trip story, has a surprise for Erica, we debate how short men's shorts should be (again) and other things we... probably shouldn't talk about here. HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!
Another Friday, and another great debate between Jon and Erica. This week, the duo is tackling whether using Snapchat as a form of communication with someone you're dating is garbage or elite. Then, Jon fills Erica in on a viral date story (that he hopes to recreate), Erica FINALLY shares what has pissed her off for weeks, and Jon has us thinking about death. Just another week here at Almost On Air!!
Jon and Erica both know they should not be ones giving health and wellness advice... but the mother/daughter duo from the podcast 'This is Biohacking' actually ARE equipped to do so. This week they join Almost On Air to talk about the COVID vaccine side effects, 24 hour fasting, the stars on Jon's bedroom ceiling, how dating has changed over the years and so much more.

Plus, we get deep while talking about how things change as we get older, aaaaand it wouldn't be an episode of Almost On Air without some FREE BEER!!!

Our friends Ricki and Jake from the 20-Somethings Doing Nothing join us for what may be our MOST. FUN. EPISODE. YET!! We talk everything from Jake's hate for group chats, to Ricki and Erica being VERY different in middle school, to Jon's house running out of toilet paper... All that PLUS: can guys and girls *really* be just friends? And the two teams of podcasters put their smarts to the test in a very stressful game for the girls!
Jon and Erica are at it again... and by "it" I mean fighting. This time it's over what the color dandelion is, and we need YOUR help to decide. This week we're also diving into the Peter Pan Syndrome, talking about what actually makes you an adult, and trying to simply live más. Plus, Kitten of the Week returns!!
It's WINE NIGHT!!!! Last minute, Jon and Erica decided "heck it! let's have a wine night" - and spoiler alert, Jon likes wine more than he thought he would. We really open up on this episode while playing truth or drink (and share way more truths than drinks) and rank things like which of our coworkers we like the most, the creepiest things in Jon's room and Taylor Swift songs. Plus, we get to the bottom of why our ice tastes bad!?
