This week the boys let the dogs out. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem brags about killing her dog which turns out is a little too maga even for maga. Protests on campuses nationwide have the boys (predictable) arguing but (surprisingly) also agreeing. Kevin Spacey asks to be uncanceled so the boys give some hot takes on The Biz.

Thirty minutes of content from two gay best friends.

This week the boys can't extinguish the flame. A man lights himself on fire outside of Trump's trial leading to an argument over who can be defined as crazy. A question for women in the woods leads to a surprising answer and the debunking of a misogynistic myth, while a scientific breakthrough has Casey worried about the future of humanity in general and Tony rooting for the end. Very on brand.

30 minutes with 2 gay hosts.

This week the boys join the ban wagon. Senator Katie Britt's response to the SOTU proves why conservatives should leave acting to the Hollywood nepo-babies. Florida cracks down on spring breakers which is such an abrupt change of identity, it's now illegal to talk about Florida in Florida public schools. Congress votes to ban TikTok, Boeing keeps literally falling apart and the boys are very suspicious of Queen Camilla.

This week the boys get very familiar. This month marks the tenth year the boys have known each other and Tony read the comments section to celebrate. After remembering why they love each other, Casey baits Tony into their favorite shared pastime, a fight.

This week the boys profess their love for each other, in obscure ways. Valentine's Day has the boys dreaming up the perfect gift for the perfect holiday. John Stewart returns to host The Daily Show and states his case against a Biden nomination, leaving liberals unclear of whose side even they are on. Casey maintains there are clear differences between the two American political parties and Tony disagrees which starts a fight that - in the recent past - would have taken a week to mend. In a sign of progress, this fight is mended after only 20 minutes.

This week the boys are floating above it all. A relentless atmospheric river has the boys feeling moist and ready to get physical. A right-wing freak beheads his father for being a government employee yet somehow Casey finds a bright side. A Michigan mother is convicted for her son's school shooting and the boys think it's about time parents pay for their creepy kids' crimes. Republicans fail to impeach DHS Secretary Mayorkas in spectacular fashion and if turning easy wins into losses is their thing then the boys say “keep up the good work!”

This week the boys are mitigating, for once. Nicki and Megan are in a feud and the boys can relate. Texas Gov Greg Abbot stokes a literal civil war stand off which raises the question, who's scared of Arkansas? Republicans push to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkus and the boys think that's a characteristically stupid thing to do.

This week the boys have performance anxiety. Two white gays adopt a black baby on TikTok and it has the boys questioning all performative parenting. Trump's performance at the polls scares the world but Tony and Casey both think he will lose, and argue over why. Barbie is snubbed at the Oscars and Tony explains why caring about that makes you a war criminal.

This week the boys are sick of it. Los Angeles sees a major rise in Covid, RSV, and the flu redefining what it means to be a Hollywood triple threat. The 2024 election cycle begins in Iowa and it's still unclear which candidate has Tony's vote. The boys argue over a generational divide, what constitutes yelling, and if it's possible to catch ADD.

This week the boys aren't quite ready for more in ‘24. Covid is starting the new year off strong and the boys wonder if it's a harbinger of things to come. A Boeing Max-9 plane blows a door mid-flight so the boys talk about why flying does indeed blow. Gypsy Rose Blanchard is out of prison, married, and famous which begs the question, what are Tony and Casey doing wrong?

This week the boys are wrapping it up for the season. A senate aide goes unwrapped in a Senate conference room which leaves the boys wondering if you can really trust your close friends. The Pope gives gay Catholics a holiday present and gays, in true form, try to return it for something better. Tony considers a dangerous tattoo that could get him killed and Casey thinks it could be the gift that keeps giving, comedy-wise. And for the final episode of the year, Tony gives holiday shout-outs to debt defaulters, Casey's problematic brain, and Houthi pirates.

This week the boys are watching other people fight (for once). Republicans move forward with impeaching Biden so Casey dreams up a competition between Hunter and Don Jr that will settle the election for good. A racist tirade in a Disneyland bathroom is caught on film and Tony thinks racists need to take it outside. A woman successfully sues Texas for an abortion but Texas tells her that she doesn't have to go home but she can't stay here.

This week the boys contemplate the end. As their birthday season comes to a close Tony and Casey debate their favorite topic, who will die first. Iconic sex worker Sophie Anderson passes and the boys give her a filthy send-off fit for a queen. George Santos is officially booted from Congress, Kevin McCarthy announces his retirement and Henry Kissinger dies so, all in all, pretty good week for the left.

This week the boys keep the party going. It's Tony's birthday week so he starts to question his literal place in this world. Casey gives Tony a memorable birthday present that doubles as a moral conundrum. George Santos is the gift that keeps giving as he sets his sociopathic sights on his fellow Republicans.

This week the boy is Casey. For his 40th birthday, Casey gets a surprise party and roasted by his friends but the biggest surprise might be what's in his stomach. Tony makes Casey rank his best friends and the results don't turn out in Tony's favor. Donald Trump spoils the party by calling Americans vermin while congressional Republicans act like zoo monkeys, in that they keep throwing sh*t at each other and need to be locked in cages.

This week the boys remain conflicted. Tony visits from Illinois while Casey weekends in Palm Springs and both return rejuvenated. Joe Biden gets a new nickname (along with some scary poll numbers) and the boys discuss why that's a problem for the world. Statewide elections are good for Democrats but the crisis in Gaza continues to worsen for everyone.

This week the boys lighten things up a bit. Casey returns from SF a bit bloodied and Tony is concerned we aren't hearing the full story. Britney releases her memoir leaving Tony with new inspiration for ways to get back at your family. An off-duty pilot on mushrooms terrorizes an airplane leading to a screed against (and a new slogan for) D.A.R.E. and Republicans elect a new, worse Speaker of the House.

This week the boys practice conflict resolution. A week-long feud over a screenshot Casey sent Tony is amicably resolved. Not to be outdone, the crisis in Palestine continues to rage and the boys take some of the lessons learned in their feud to continue their heated disagreement on what needs to be done…amicably. And the Republicans still don't have a Speaker but at least Britney Spears has a book.

This week the boys go at it. Casey gets stung by a bee and Tony, per usual, blames the victim. This minor inconvenience of course doesn't overshadow the war in Palestine so the boys have a somewhat civil argument over context and resolution. Good luck!

This week the boys are itching for a show. Paris suffers through a bed bug infestation and Casey wants to remind people it has nothing to do with his recent trip there while Tony directs shame at the infested. Diane Feinstein dies in office yet still has a better week than former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy and the Golden Bachelor debuts to huge ratings so the boys talk about the benefits of a Boomer dating show for all of America.

This week the boys don't miss a beat. Casey returns from a month in Europe with a thick Spanish tongue and Tony is ready to smack it right out of his mouth. Hollywood is back in business and Tony wonders if it will even be recognizable with the rampant Ozempic use during the strike. Donald Trump illegally buys a gun and the boys fantasize about the best way for him to use it. First show back in a month so it's a long, good one.

This week the boys let other people do the arguing, for once. The GOP primary debate season debuts and the starring cast seems like a bunch of scabs. Hot takes include a grossly incorrect statement about anatomy from Casey while Tony thinks Nikki Haley is the least insane-sounding and therefore least-electable candidate. Vivek Ramaswamy makes his case for being the (second) worst and is set to leapfrog the pack to remain over 50 points behind Trump. Elon Musk wasn't at the debate, presumably because he was stuck in his bathtub gacked out on K (allegedly).

This week the boys pile on. A good ol fashion Alabama melee has liberal America rooting for a folding chair. An off-season election in Ohio is a glimmer of hope for better things to come in 2024…for liberal America. And with islands everywhere on fire, the boys speak for all of liberal America when they say “I told you so.”

This week the boys have a secret word and it's R.I.P. Paul Reubens dies which interestingly gives Tony an excuse to talk about why he is better than most drag queens. In death at least. Tony goes to Vegas and Casey is surprised Tony would put his health at such flagrant risk. Extraterrestrials seem to be fleeing Earth for safety reasons, Doomsday moms keep killing their kids and the boys talk about how excited they are to vote for a guy who is going to die during his second term in the White House.

This week the boys are hot and bothered. Casey makes an offer to start an OnlyFans and Tony wonders what the content might look like. Tony is upset at Pride month and lisps after getting an MRI so Casey wonders if MRIs make you homophobic. The world is hotter than its been in thousands of years, Hollywood continues to be on strike and everything is worse in Texas, even the STIs.

This week the boys are wrapped in plastic and it's fantastic. The Barbie movie hits theaters so the boys reminisce about other iconic moments from their childhoods. Threads reaches 100 million downloads faster than any app in history and it's almost like the world forgets Facebook is the OG Worst. Devastating heat worldwide leads to a geography lesson from Tony while a nuclear threat to California leads Casey to talk metaphysics. Alabama surprises no one with the most racist senator in America but Joe Biden keeps surprising even the most jaded of liberals.

This week the boys party in the USA. Los Angeles fireworks leave the city smoked out and toxic so for one day it's the most American city in the country. Hot dog eating contests, stuck rollercoasters, and skydiving mishaps have the boys asking what's the most American way to die. A little bag of powder found in the White House leads to more questions, like, are the Bidens the coolest first family ever?

This week the boys set the rules. Killer whales expand their maritime attacks and the boys consider that justification to ban all boat cruises. The Supreme Court readies several momentous court decisions and the boys discuss how hard they are going to boof it. Tony finds a way to call Casey racist during an argument over eating dog meat and a Russian mutiny attempt begs the question, how many different ways can you poison one person?

This week the boys get to the depth of things. A submarine trip to the Titanic turns out about as good as a trip on the Titanic and the boys struggle for sympathy. Hunter Biden pleads guilty to a gun charge and the boys wonder what that has to do with his laptop. Crime is down across the country but Tony thinks Casey is murdering the Spanish language.

Weekly show hosted by Tony Soto and Casey Ley

This week the boys don their gay apparel, brought to you by Target. Pride season kicks off nationwide with a classic banger: anti-gay bigotry. Tony wants conservatives to boycott better if they are going to boycott at all while Casey lays out some surprising reasons why June is the worst month to go mass shooting. Robert De Niro and Al Pacino have pregnant young wives so the boys give an extended Pride lesson in baby making.

This week the boys are playing ball. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence get tagged teamed by the Catholic Church and the LA Dodgers and unsurprisingly the Sisters come out on top. Bigots set their target on Target because of queer bathing suits in its Pride section and the boys wonder if anyone out there has anything better to do. Teeny tiny Florida man Ron DeSantis launches his presidential campaign and the awkwardness is palpable.

Another 30 minutes with Tony Soto and Casey Ley.

This week the boys are royally flushed. King Charles the Third is set to be crowned in London and the boys take part in the age-old debate, why do we care? Tony is on the hunt for his own Crown Jewels for a gayer regal affair, while Casey goes to upstate New York to get away from the pageantry of it all. Florida keeps making life worse for queer people so the boys wonder what a two-state solution might look like.

This week the boys come in hot. The new Covid strain is giving people conjunctivitis and the boys talk about the other ways gays can get pink eye. Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News and CNN gets rid of its Don to make it a full-blown Lemon Party. Joe Biden is officially running again and the only Democrats in his way are two rich snake oil salesmen (not named Trump.)

This week the boys get buzzed. It's 420 and Casey decides to celebrate like Tony does every day of the year. Tony switches to instant coffee for a reason that has Casey feeling very paranoid. The boys wonder what Clarence Thomas is smoking if he thinks we don't know he's a crook and a 420 PSA that if you live in America don't knock on a stranger's door.

This week the boys realize nothing really changes. 300 episodes in and Tony is still praising natural disasters that hit red states while Casey is still waiting for karma to hit closer to home. Donald Trump was a crook when the podcast started and now 7 years later he's an indicted crook. Tennessee never gets better, nerds are still releasing government secrets and if you want to end a pregnancy the best bet is still a gun.

This week the boys have seen it all. A Nashville shooting is just like all the others expect with a twist and Tony hates the convenient conservative narrative of a trans shooter while Casey braces for the ensuing backlash against the queer community. Right wing Americans are unclear about what past they want to return to, Tony remembers what it was like trying to be a good little Christian and Casey gives a brief history of buggery.

This week the boys have indictment fever. The feds are coming for both Donald Trump and TikTok and nobody knows the chaos it will reap. Stormy Daniels makes her case for the best porn star in history, Ron Desantis eats pudding weirdly and nobody likes Mike Pence.
