Just when you thought we were done covering Covid, we’re back with a little lighter spin. The NBA is getting ready to host a made-for-TV party of millionaires at none other than Disney World! And if you think that sounds ridiculous, wait till you hear some of the rules the players have to follow!

Holy smokes, what a week – what a year. Things have been a bit crazy to say the least – the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis has set a shock wave through the Minneapolis area, the country, and the world. No article this week, the guys just talk about what’s going on. Hope everyone…

What’s up listeners?! Sorry we’re a little lat on this one – I went out of town and rather than trust the other guys to do all this, I decided to forget about it and panic for 4.5 days until I returned. Sorry for the inconvenience! This episode, we talk about this article from ESPN…

We’re all guilty of checking our most recent Facebook post or Instagram picture to see who’s “liked” it. We all check emails too often.

What’s up everyone?! Sorry again for the late episode. Crazy week + Mitch’s audio was a mess. I did what I could with what I had, but alas, it sounds like crap for a few minutes in the middle here. Let us know what you think of everything EXCEPT the audio quality on this one!!…

WE’RE NOT A WEEK LATE, YOU’RE A WEEK EARLY! OK, no, you’re right. This ep is a week late, we’re really sorry for the delay. It’s impossible for us to point the blame at any single one of us, so we won’t even try. Don’t believe me? Too bad. This week we talk about recycling!…

Just kidding everybody, no more lukewarming for us. This week, in the absence of Mitch, we discuss the new Minnesota driving laws about slow-poking and hands-free cell phones. If your state or country doesn’t have these laws, I bet they will soon – so tune in, and send us your thoughts! Thanks for listening everyone!!

That’s right folks, I guess this turned into a two-parter. We got some great listener feedback about the topic of the last episode, and Mitch wanted his chance to try and clear things up and make a few more points. Perek and Chad argue with each other, themselves, and Mitch again too. Great fun!! Thanks…

What’s up listeners ?! Again with the delay. And again because of Perek. So sorry for making you wait! This ep we talk about “lukewarmers” based on an article Mitch brought us from here.

What would you do if the concept of time didn’t exist? Would you play soccer at 3am? In the town of Sommarøy in Norway, a town that experiences nearly 24 hours of sunlight during this time of year, some inhabitants are arguing for a “time free zone.” Mow your lawn in the middle of the…

What’s up listeners? Are you like us? Did you watch Game of Thrones? Well…what the heck are you going to watch now?!?! This episode we very casually discuss what we think might be a good next option. Word to the wise, just don’t listen to Perek, his suggestions are usually not great… Thanks for listening!…

Wait, what? I know. We all thought the same. What business do we have even considering talking about this. But Mitch heard a really great Econ Talk podcast about this, and it was a book that Geo’s wife had just purchased. It all lined up so nicely. So we gave it a go. We hope…

Moooooooooove over beef. There’s a new kid in town. Maybe. This episode the Guys talk about artificial beef (which incidentally was also Mitch’s nickname in college). The main question coming out of this show is – “Is it any good?!”. Well, we’ll know soon enough! The challenge this episode is to go buy some and…

What is…What’s up listeners? I guess I didn’t need to phrase that in the form of a question. Anyways, this episode we talk about this new dude shaking it up on Jeopardy.

Ahoy there listeners!  ARRRRR you ready for another episode?!  This week we talk about an article from Science Daily that we had mixed experiences with.  The article is about piracy of online content and how the economics show win-win-win type situations for content producers, distributers, and consumers.  We all either seemed to want more in this…

No, not a WEIRD child!  This week we talk about WIRED children.  Screen time.  Cyber-bullying.  Online etiquette.  That sort of thing.  A recent NPR article we read seemed to be a nice change of pace from the typical “don’t let your kids spend too much time with a screen” post we are all seeing.  Right,…
