Get ready for a laugh-out-loud episode as Josh and Sydney navigate the hilarious chaos of their sports worlds colliding! Josh has developed a recent (healthy) obsession with the Utah Jazz, while Sydney has suffered through being a life-long fan of the Texas Rangers. Listen to her thoughts on Texas winning their first ever World Series title, as well as Josh's experience watching professional baseball for the first time. What about Josh's life as a fan in the middle of a heavy franchise rebuild? We cover that too! Most importantly, we discuss how these teams have made a positive impact in our relationship.

We're going to the Eras Tour!!! And Josh doesn't know a single Taylor Swift song. Obviously that has to change, so we're listening through Taylor's entire discography one album at a time! In this episode we covered her self-titled debut album from 2006. Listen to hear what are thoughts were, and if Josh is still willing to listen to any more of T-Swift's music after this haha.    Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich.

This episode isn't a swing and a miss! You're sure to find this one a home run! The hosts didn't strike out on this topic. Please tell me you're going to edit this a little bit. These are all real suggestions from Sydney for the episode description. I think it goes without saying that her puns need some work before they're of the TFP quality our listeners have come to expect. Anyway! We watched and reviewed the 1992 sports/comedy flick, A Leauge of Their Own, one of Sydney's favorite movies and one that Josh had never seen before.

When hinges creak in doorless chambers, and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls; whenever candle lights flicker, where the air is deathly still; that is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight!    In this episode, we discuss Syd's first experiences going through spooky haunted houses.

Today we find out the truth about true crime. What is it? Why is it? Etcetera etcetera. Sydney, CJ, and Laurel have all been avid listeners of true crime podcasts for years, but Josh has been too scared to even touch the genre (It's a genre, right?). Give this episode a listen and you'll hear all about their attempts to inundate Josh with the truest crimest podcasts. Don't worry, there are still plenty of laughs.  **CONTENT WARNINGS: assault, abduction, death, homicide, suicide, violence against children and minorities, and graphic descriptions of severe injuries.**   Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   CJ - Instagram: @_cj_schmid CJ - Twitter: @_cj_schmid   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

This week we're talking about how the government uses tornados made of sharks to control us. You better hope and prey you brought your barstool. Sydney loves the 2013 film Sharknado, but Josh would advise you to think twice before sinking your teeth into it. Either way, this episode is overflowing with killer jokes. You've got no-fin to lose by listening! Plus, doctors say it'd definitely be benefishial for your health. That is, if you don't get tired of Sydney's sharkasm first. By the way, what's a shark's favorite Bob Dylan song? Mako You Feel My Love! What Hogwarts house do sharks belong to? Gryffindorsal! If filling the episode description with jawsome puns is a crime, consider us gill-ty as charged.    Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

In this episode of TFP, we tackle Hollywood's trend of remaking remakes. We also discuss why Rick O'Connell is a slightly less problematic male character than Bruce Wayne. Apparently, this is the first Brendan Fraser movie Syd has ever seen? That doesn't seem right. Let us know your recommendations so we can fix that. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this episode! It's mostly about the 1999 film, The Mummy. But we may or may not get sidetracked along the way.    Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

Better hurry and listen to this episode before you get Vecna'd. You'll be cracking up either way (haha get it?). Sydney convinced Josh to binge through the first three seasons of Stranger Things in the fall of 2020 in exchange for accompanying him through a haunted house. She still hasn't kept her end of the deal so... tell her to get cracking!

The first time Sydney tried an energy drink was during the summer when she and Josh were engaged. Two years later and she can't get enough. In this TFP episode, we discuss our go-to, catch-all problem solver: caffeine. Though neither of us has ever tasted coffee, we sure do give Starbucks customers a run for their money. Do you think America runs on Dunkin'? Think again. America runs on Mountain Dew and Red Bull. Also, Sydney and I were definitely sitting 5 yards apart. Don't let her tell you otherwise.    Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

Syd and Josh's shenanigans are about to come at you in leaps and rebounds. If you're still sitting on defense, just remember a pitcher is worth a thousand words. In this episode, we attempt to explain the wins and outs of professional sports. We also extensively elaborate on our lack of journaling ability, so to be honest listening will Shaquille two birds with one stone. Hope you're not hating these sports puns, because there's more where that game from.   Tap to watch the Tyler Allgeier football play that will make you swoon.   Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

In this episode, we are joined by Guacamollie of Ry!t Media fame to discuss the 2009 blockbuster, Avatar. It was Sydney's first time watching it! Be sure to listen to see what she thinks about it! As well as learn how to build a bridge out of newspapers? Oh and also the relativistic effects of traveling close to the speed of light.

Well listeners, we at least tried to talk about this movie in the episode. Josh recently watched You Again (the 2010 film with a 19% critic score and 43% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes) for the first time while both of us were home sick all week with Covid. Sydney's family has seen the movie countless times, and her little sister, Livy, has been dying to come on the podcast for quite a while now so we thought there's no better time than this episode to invite her to guest on the show. Was it a bad idea to try to record a podcast with two Hansen sisters in the same room at 3 in the morning? Definitely. Did we do it anyway? Well, let's just say this episode wouldn't exist if we didn't. So you're welcome, dear listener. But also, we're very sorry.    Thanks for Participating is created and hosted by Josh and Sydney Rich   Josh - Instagram: @josh_is_rich Sydney - Instagram: @dipyourchicken   Thanks for Participating - Instagram: @tfp_pod Thanks for Participating - Twitter: @tfp_show Follow on Tiktok as well, maybe?   BRAND NEW MERCH STORE!!!!!

In this episode, we discuss Sydney's first-ever experience watching Indiana Jones, her irrational fear of roller coasters, how to defeat children in coloring contests, as well as Josh's deeply rooted, though facetious, abhorrence of video games.

This episode is our first revisit of a topic previously discussed in an earlier episode of Thanks for Participating. Since we recorded our last episode about concerts in early 2021, there have been several more that we've been to together, including the Hella Mega Tour with Weezer, Fallout Boy, and Green Day. We thought it would be fun to make a part 2 in order to cover these further developments. Plus, Sydney joined an Indie rock band this year and we couldn't not talk about that.

Is there any better way to celebrate "May the 4th be with you" than by listening to this TFP bonus episode right this very second? Probably, yeah. That doesn't mean I wouldn't be super happy if you chose to listen to this podcast instead though. Ry!t (famously the creator/host of podcasts such as Sorta Star Wars, Granny Shiftin', and Dad Reads Books) helped me kick Sydney off the show in order to attempt to talk about a very special secret Star Wars topic. It might have something to do with... Ewoks? But then again we might not have actually said anything about Ewoks or their low-budget Caravan of Courage sequel from the '80s. I guess you'll just have to listen to our conversation to find out for yourself. This episode is also full of laughs, games, and a pinch of terrible creative writing.
