We Have Fun is a twice weekly podcast hosted by longtime friends Doug McGlynn and Kevin Cross. Join us as we dish out a hot take or two, pick some fun hills to die on, and try to navigate this world- getting crazier by the day.
Look, we cut out like a half an hour of this episode and it's still long. We tried. There are, unfortunately, some audio issues with popping and fizzle, both technical terms, that Alan claims is “our fault” but we don't pay him for criticism. Hell, we don't pay him at all. Rest assured, anything wrong with this podcast is like 99% the Scribes fault. Anyway, we cover some good distance in this one from portmanteaus to cigar bars on Valentine's Day.
In this episode The Fellas: erroneously implicate Chris Tucker in the Epstein Client List scandal, so they're sorry about that Chris, discuss the lost Buddy Cop genre, the real world hell of Reply All email chains, driving etiquette in the southwest of the northeast, discuss Jake Johnson and what the hell he's been up to. Also Kevin takes chances on his love life and asks some feedback of the Babies. It's a wild ride.
A pretty local episode, but we wouldn't put it up if we thought everyone else would hate it. Pretty classic “The Fellas just say actors names for an hour” pod. Talking some ancient lit and historical fiction, too. Really covering some ground.
The Fellas are back, and firing on every single cylinder. Talking the good ol days of social media, before everything was memes, nothing was taken seriously, and everything was bad. Also talking a lot of TV and cinemas for the babies of old. Get in there!
It only feels right to admit that the opening bit goes on way too long, but the Fellas get into a good music talk, and the Babies always like the good music talks. Real meeting of minds there, some BTS discussion. Behind the scenes, not the Kpop band. Or maybe...haha no...but...
Well, better late than never. The Fellas are back in town, and truly haven't missed a beat. A little dated, but there's fun stuff in there. We missed you as much OR GREATER THAN as much you missed us. Get in there, babies. Have a time.
The Fellas talk their July 4th, and some very wholesome (cute, frankly) nerd talk, as well as giving some pod updates that you won't want to miss. Get in there, Babes.
The Fellas retread some old lines, talk a little about the utter state of TV, some reading quick hits, and really some of the dumbest conversations you'll continue to ever hear.
The Fellas get right after it after a great little giggle fit. Start off real strong with submersible talk, then moving eventually into Goosebumpstalk, and then they reminisce on the perhaps the greatest summer of their lives. Really, this pod is just a lot of talking. Fair warning.
The Fellas engage in some of the dumbest conversations you've ever heard- you know what we're doing here. Juice talk, some Pan-Penn banter, the night Doug and Kevin should've died, revisiting old animated movies, the soothsaying tendencies of The Fellas, and we go WAYY back with some IMDB searches.
The Fellas take a little stroll down social media memory lane and discuss the great lengths they used to go to annoy one another. Also, first official episode of Pride 2023. Feels like every year it gets more important. Get on in there, babies! Support your not-straight friends! Kiss your buddies! Just kidding. Unless….
The Fellas discover a new Baby market, talk a little Mark Twain, and Kevin tells a story on the art of the wingman and what happens when it goes terribly wrong. Get in there!
"Tough start, but The Fellas rally and go on to have a great show!" -- Just one high profile critic's review. The Fellas talk tough on global happenings and then Kevin has another story about harshed vibes and how a night can really turn on its head. We're starting to see a trend(!!). Lots of good stuff in this one, so get in there.
The Fellas discuss local nightlife as well as posit a new birthday tradition.
A LOT of ground to cover. The Fellas want to care so much, but SOCIETY keeps getting in the way. Also, Moana- still divisive? The Rock- is he his own problem? Also, a trip down memory lane vis a vis the toys we played with and the memories we created alone. Get in there!
Just dudes talking about good feelings and rallying for each other. Don't get too settled, The Fellas also talk about which cereal they think is the horniest for an unsettling amount of time. Sports talk mixed with a little Rock Talk (just naming bands for awhile. Men, amirite?) and then really bringing it home by somehow mixing everything into a cohesive last thought. Get on in there, babies.
The Fellas play some interesting mind games, plot some puzzling posits, and just go absolutely rabid on the Joker. Again.
Honestly not sure who's more mad- The Fellas or The Babies
A little live music talk, a lot of Yinzer homage, some toothpaste talk, and as always, the best part is the last 15 minutes.
The Fellas get to the bottom of what the show really needs, as well as discovering Atlantis and TV shows that had surprising longevity. All the standard stuff you've come to expect.
(Very John Wick voice) Oh yeah, I'm thinking we're back. BABIES. Change happens to all of us, but that doesn't mean we have to talk about it clearly. What's important is that your favorite, dumbest podcast is back and we aim to be more of both of those things going forward, and this episode is a great example of that. Love you, mean it, babes. It's great to be in your ears again.
Food poisoning, venture capitalism, and some good old fashioned Oscar talk. Supposing The Fellas are back? Supposing they ever left.
Velma, Dry January, and mostly BTS conversation. The chillcast of all chillcasts. Settle in to this one, grab a nice glass of Spanish dry red wine, and relax to the dulcet tones of The Fellas arguing and then falling in love over and over again.
The Fellas plan their future, both for the pod and their personal lives. But mostly the pod. Really throwing everything at the wall here.
The Fellas finally finish playing We're Not Really Strangers, and welcome in the new era of WHF.
Let us set the scene: You're at home, in your apartment or townhouse, eavesdropping on your allegedly heterosexual wall neighbors. That's the audio version of this episode. Video up soon, or if this is far in the past, it's ok the YouTube. Check it out.
The Fellas ask an important question for the first time, and then play the hit card game “We're Not Really Strangers”. It gets emotional. Live, Laugh, Love!
The Fellas are back after the thanksgiving break and they're back to their vintage selves. Great pod for the movie heads, great pod for the babies in general.
The long-awaited return, and we basically discuss a topic everyone can agree with! Dive on in there, statistically you have to agree with one of us!
The Fellas do their best to distract themselves from the Midterms, and that's basically the crux of the episode. They do some talking about parenthood from the important perspective of unwed men. A little discussion on masculinity in the modern age, and some good old fashioned passion talk with some moral scruples thrown in. Good times! Stay safe!
Halloween episode(!), and the Fellas are up to their knees in unpleasant news (mostly untimely celebrity deaths, RIP). Some very very stupid discussion about wood paneling and fire halls, and then on to the REAL topic at hand: spooky scary movies. Rank'em, review'em, stick'em in a stew. Happy Halloween to all who celebrate!
The Fellas take their time getting there, but eventually discuss Scooby Do, marriage trends, bad DJs ruining the night, growing up in the last era of “classic childhoods” and talk a little bit of Halloween, as the day draws near.
Probably the last Reddit story for a little while, but boy is it one. Tough to live up to the last episode but we do our best.
The Fellas dive into the dumbest story of all time.
A little fashion fellas, a little conspiracy fellas, and maybe the most exciting introduction to the pod since Missed Connections
The Fellas attempt to sit down and do a podcast in the smoldering rubble of a long weekend. Because they're idiots. Lots of subtle, underhanded goodness in this one, Babies.
Welcome to season 5, babies! The Fellas play a little name association game that spins wildly out of control, talk a little concert talk, talk a little movie talk, and then as usual, peel back the veil a little bit on the business. It feels like it's gonna be a good season.
The Fellas revisit a horror movie of the highest camp, some pretty stupid music talk, and Doug just picks a ton of fights. Alan comes in with an All Time WFH moment. Don't miss it.
The Fellas dig into the BTS, talk about some sketchy situations they've found themselves in, and do a LOT of laughing. This is a feel good hit for the whole family, babies.
The Fellas talk monster trucks without any level of expertise, while watching the X-Games and remembering how every single member of Rocket Power was high all the time.
Show, don't tell! In this FTV episode, The Fellas review another cult hit “Bronson” starring a young Tom Hardy as Charlie Bronson. The Englishman. Not the American actor. You gotta know that or you're going to be very confused. Anyway, The Fellas lay the groundwork for a LOT of jokes and inside bits, including the title of this very podcast. It's actually pretty cool to hear it happen organically, but what do I know. I'm just a scribe chained to a radiator. If this is your first episode, you may want to start from the beginning or you're probably very confused again.
Another good'un from the Way Back Machine as The Fellas navigate this hysterically busy Summer. Here, we've got a review for the classic Sam Rockwell film Moon. Take note of the very careful word usage, the meticulous thought process that The Fellas exhibit and just take a moment to reflect that at some point, we weren't saying things the second they popped into our heads. I'm sure we'll discuss the meta of these episodes on a future episode, so get in on the discussion now. As always, shoutout our brother, lover, and legal counselor Colin for mixing some, mastering some, and generally just tolerating the Fellas when we were, sadly, our weirdest and most edgy. Love ya, babies. Stay safe out there.
The Fellas are BACK. We're talking topical Pittsburgh degeneracy, and things you probably shouldn't be TOO good at it. It's a pretty well-disciplined episode. We know, we're shocked too.
The Fellas are taking you back this episode, to a time when they had focus, worse equipment, recording etiquette, and barely a bed time at all. Turns out, Kevin has really always been loud, and Douglas has always been a snarky lil pup. If you haven't seen Kung Fury, this episode is twice as long and the Fellas think about the plot twice as much as the director himself. Take a load off and listen to the dulcet tones of the Fellas dropping knowledge and low hanging jokes.
Pride month finale! The Fellas taking on the Supreme Court and the morally bankrupt. Spoiler: we support a women's right to choose whatever the hell she wants to do with her body. Of course we talk about Paris Hilton and her ilk, and Kevin's Horrible Movie Marathon.
The Fellas are still alive post-vacation and a Covid get. We're staying in a safe space and talking about childhood cartoons and how strange they truly truly were. The Fellas may also be trying out for The Squid Game Game. Talk us out of it.
The Fellas unfurl evidence against Big Suits, detailing the plight of the hirsute and any/all who just want to be svelt in public. Plus: Doug and Kevin catch up after SOMEONE got C*vid and derailed this multimillion dollar operation for a week. Unthinkable. Most importantly, happy Pride Month to everyone who chooses to celebrate. We're happy you're around and we all live at the same time. Honestly, chances were slim and that's what makes it special.

Hey hey go to OdysseusClothingCompany.com and use THEFELLAS at checkout. 15% off. Easiest thing of all time. Prop up the economy and look hella good doing it. Like Wreck-Gar in the classic 1987 animated Tranformers movie, the Fellas talk a little TV, discuss the idea of all historical god figures existing simultaneously, and coincidentally, Kevin finds himself in the closest thing to church since his college days. Remember this is a comedy pod. It's not that deep, babes.
We have to protect Goldblum at all costs. Lots of good Pittsburgh talk, some sports talk, a little bit of fashionfellas- you know, all the reasons you tolerate us. Oh, and something very specials happens towards the end, so you'll want to listen all the way through.
