A podcast about everyday things.
The boys talk about the best books they (Keaton) have been reading- kid spies, political dragons, should kids have phones, and who gave us the weekend? Rate and share!
The boys look back on an eventful summer- swords, sorcery, and vacation. And check out our new venture, a father & son TWITCH CHANNEL featuring swords, sorcery, family squabbles, and tv theme songs.
Keaton and Matt are back with a drum-tight, focused discussion of Iceland, travel, and related matters. We shout out birthday girl Aunt Noo, tour guide extraordinaire Björn, and Icelandic pop star and friend of a friend ZÖE. This episode is dedicated to all of Keaton's crushes.
Matt and Keaton return with an off-the-cuff episode. We talk about the new recording situation and the chaos of Keaton's fifth grade year. Keaton recommends the Aru Shah series of books (link), which leads to a deeply uninformed discussion of the deities of Hinduism. We end with a shout out to Ramsey and Heather at If You're Listening, whereupon we appeared a few weeks ago to unpack the Disney film Encanto (link).
Matt and Keaton give an update on the pre-Season 3 hiatus- Matt's been trying to scrounge up recording gear, everybody got covid (all a-ok thankfully), Matt joined a cult and Keaton drank a beer.
In our SEASON 2 FINALE, Matt and Keaton talk about the value of good friends, the frustration of having people move in and out of your life, and soft-pitch a bunch of changes we should make for Season 2.
Hey happy holidays to you and yours. Matt and Keaton are dropping a special episode all about Christmas. Also: a careful tribute to all non-Christmas-celebrating cultures, the limits of family togetherness, Christmas Tree Debate II, venn diagram construction, dolphin burgers, and the amazing musical The Waterman. Halloween: has it been overcommercialized? minor tw: suicide
Keaton and Matt talk Star Wars, West Side Story, Lego Short Round, and an eerie connection between the actor who plays Han Solo and the actor who plays Indiana Jones.
Matt & Keaton talk about their favorite national parks and adjacent topics: the Yellowstone Supercaldera, stupid things to do in geothermal formations, snow day policy in the Brooklyn school system, and Matt's old podcast Obstructed View, still available on all finer podcast platforms.
The boys talk about Keaton's passion for D&D. Satan worship, hibachi, Christmas tree ethics, and Keaton's tough guy rep at school.
Matt and Keaton dive into the world of mythology- the tendrils of Greek mythology that touch the modern world, a brief and incorrect recap of how they named the days of the week, and the good old days when Jesus had curly hair. EDITORIAL NOTE: At one point, Keaton refers to Jason, leader of the Argonauts and great-grandson of Hermes, when he obviously intended to name Odysseus, Homeric hero and king of Ithaca. We regret the error.
Keaton and Matt pay tribute to Keaton's favorite TV show, Bob's Burgers. They go overtime name-checking all the best characters but also save some time to talk turkey with the Ecuadorian government.
Keaton and Matt got problems, man. They talk about the difficulties of family life in 2021, determine whether or not Matt is a good father, and let the COVID-19 vaccine off the hook for the fact that they can both see sounds.
Matt and Keaton get lit and talk about the best kid's book series and how parents don't have time to model good reading habits. We also give a lot of free publicity to a puzzle game that Matt plays with on his phone too much.
Keaton and Matt take a world tour of the globe's most impressive landmarks- giant buildings, pyramids, ideal retirement spots. Old Faithful - fact or fiction?
Matt and Keaton bid a happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate, and talk food, family, and the ambitious blogger who convinced some president or other to make it a national holiday.
Keaton and Matt take on the global sports spectacle- odd events, host cities, and a very brief foray into the racial politics of Cool Runnings.
Keaton and Matt look back on the evening- costume naysayers, candy tier list. Should parents dress up? You be the judge.
Matt and Keaton record a live tour episode (they were hiding in a parking lot across from their house) about how, weirdly, it's Matt's wife's birthday and also Keaton's mom's birthday.
Keaton and Matt talk about trying to live life over video chat. Keaton silently yearns to read the new Rick Riordan book, which we had purchased just before we recorded.
Keaton and Matt talk about family food and local culture.
Allow Keaton & Matt to reintroduce themselves and talk a bit about life and the new format of the show.
