A classic from the lost first season of BOYS. It was a year ago to the day that BOYS all piled into the WienMobile and drove out to best dang casual dining spot on God's Green Earth, Applebee's. It had been rumored that millennials were destroying these types of establishments and we just wanted to see what the fuss was all about. Marvel as Mike complains about the sun. How peppery is too peppery for Wien? Will there be a Charli XCX song playing faintly in the background? You're going to have to listen to find out.
We dig into the vault for this episode of BOYS. Mike alongside a clearly inebriated Joe get together in the famous NO-zone to discuss all sorts of conspiracies. Can Stevie Wonder see?

Joe and Mike sit down with Mike's roommate Jon. Roommate Jon is a medium energy white guy which makes him perfect for the medium of podcasting.

We take you all the way back to the beginning of 2020 to when Kobe Bryant dying was the absolute worst thing you could ever imagine happening. The tension in the air is palpable and the sounds of American Football's "Never Meant" drive Wien over the edge in a way we have never witnessed before.

The BOYS are drinking wine by the river and cutting up with all the strangest people you could ever imagine. We talk about our bodies and mothers while the chocolate brown sky was illuminated by heat lightning. This was the first episode we did with Wien and we are glad it wasn't the last.
