Podcasts about Two Friends

Six segments. Four legendary movie podcasters. Three and a half hours of keeping David Sims away from his family. Welcome to our Ballad of Buster Scruggs episode! How Did This Get Made's Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas join the Two Friends to talk about the Coens' final film together (as of this recording), a grab bag of western vignettes that could have been titled “A Million Ways to Die in the West” if Seth MacFarlane hadn't already claimed it. We're picking our favorite segments, chatting about the “wild west” of Netflix projects back when Scruggs was greenlit, and ranking the Coens' filmography before we cover their solo directorial efforts. Oh, and Jason has a few bones to pick with Griffin and David about a certain section of the True Grit episode.

Step into Episode 185 of ‘On the Delo' as David DeLorenzo welcomes Jason and Jon, the duo behind Arizona Distilling Company, for an unfiltered conversation about turning a wild idea into a thriving craft spirits empire. These high school friends reunited over a mutual friend's wedding in 2010, and what started as "the dumbest effing idea" became a 14-year journey through three facilities, countless challenges, and a mission to shine a light on Arizona's hidden agricultural gold.From Jason's blackjack dealing days to Jon's banking career, discover how they walked away from steady paychecks to chase a passion for local grain-to-bottle spirits. They pull back the curtain on renovating a crumbling 1901 horse stable in Mesa (yes, the first Coors distributor outside Colorado), sourcing Durham wheat from Casa Grande that Italians use for world-class pasta, and creating a brand-new spirits category—American Single Malt Whiskey—for the first time since the 1960s. This is the untold story of Arizona agriculture, entrepreneurial grit, and why downtown Mesa is becoming the East Valley's hottest hospitality destination.If you're a business owner, hospitality professional, or craft spirits enthusiast who values local production, authentic storytelling, and the hustle behind every bottle, this episode delivers real talk, wild distillery stories, and a deep dive into what it takes to build something meaningful from scratch.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:30) Introduction: Episode 185 and Guests from Arizona Distilling(1:31 - 4:10) High School Friends and Origin Story(4:11 - 8:04) From Banking and Blackjack to Distilling(8:05 - 12:15) Tempe vs. Mesa: The Evolution of East Valley Hospitality(12:16 - 15:00) Building Renovation: From 1901 Horse Stable to Modern Distillery(15:01 - 19:27) Arizona Agriculture and Durham Wheat Discovery(19:28 - 23:38) The Process: From Grain to Bottle(23:39 - 28:02) Tours, Storytelling, and Community Engagement(28:03 - 30:49) New Malting Facility and American Single Malt Whiskey(30:50 - 34:42) International Work and Global Whiskey Market(34:43 - 38:40) Mesa Events, Wild Distillery Stories, and Life Balance(38:41 - 42:25) Rapid Fire Questions and Van Halen Stories

Send us a textHi, this week I'm chatting with Amy Joyce and Gayle Weiswasser, co-owners of Wonderland Books in Bethesda, Maryland.What turns a bookstore into a place where people feel part of a community? We asked Wonderland Books co-owners Amy Joyce and Gail Weiswasser, whose Bethesda shop blends sharp curation, joyful whimsy, and real community care—right down to a wall of Polaroids featuring every visiting dog.We trace their unlikely routes into bookselling—Amy from nearly three decades at the Washington Post and Gail from law and corporate communications—and how those skills power everything from lease negotiations to handselling, newsletters, and event strategy. They open up about curating beyond their own tastes by leaning on staff with different genre passions, why a quarter of the store is devoted to children's books, and how representation in kids' publishing shapes what young readers reach for on the shelf.Community is the through line. Hear how a creative Indiegogo campaign funded shelves and inventory while transforming donors into co-creators who curated displays, joined after-hours previews, and saw their book clubs' names on the wall. We dig into school partnerships that put author-visit titles in students' hands, hospital library donations made from damaged returns, and dog adoption events that turn the kids' section into a gentle reading nook—even for a blind pup named Rex.We also get practical about social media that works without a budget: staff-forward videos, playful trends, and a voice that feels human. Amy and Gail share what's selling now—from dystopian classics to big-hearted novels—and offer thoughtful recommendations that build empathy, including Demon Copperhead, Nickel and Dimed, Nomadland, and The Secret Lives of Church Ladies. The philosophy is simple: welcome warmly, never hover, and let curiosity lead. If you love bookstores that feel like a sanctuary and a spark, this conversation will make you want to visit, linger, and read.If this resonated, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend who loves indie bookstores.www.thebookshoppodcast.comWonderland BooksDemon Copperhead, Barbara KingsolverNomadland, Jessica BruderBuckeye, Patrick RyanSome Great Nowhere, Ann PackerThe Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny, Kiren DesaiThe Road to Tender Hearts, Annie HartnettNickel and Dimed, Barbara EhrenreichThe Secret Lives of Church Ladies, Deesha PhilyawMandy Jackson-Beverly - Lunch With An Author Literary SeriesSupport the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

After decades in beauty and brand-building, celebrity colorist Kadi Lee and entrepreneur Myka Harris have created something refreshingly intentional: Highbrow Hippie, a Venice-based salon and lifestyle brand where artistry, wellness, and conscious living intersect.In this warm and unfiltered conversation, Kadi and Myka reflect on the long road from blog to brick-and-mortar, the failed investor partnership that taught them everything, and the intuition-meets-data mindset that guides their business decisions. They share how they built a community long before products, and how that trust became the foundation for a loyal global following.From the quiet luxury of their five-chair atelier to the holistic rituals behind their hair health line, the duo opens up about creating culture, hiring slow and firing fast, and funding a beauty brand on their own terms. They speak candidly about the realities of entrepreneurship as Black women, the exhaustion of the grind, and the unglamorous but necessary balance between creativity and financial fluency.With humor, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, Kadi and Myka remind us that building something enduring isn't about chasing perfection; it's about alignment, resilience, and the courage to keep going when no one else sees the vision yet.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:37] How a Venice salon became a sanctuary where beauty and wellness truly intersect[06:44] The holistic insight that turned hair health into a wellness story, not a vanity one[09:52] Why pairing intuition with data changed everything in their product development process[12:26] The reason community came before product and how that built lifelong brand trust[15:03] What it takes to lead with values and speak truthfully, even when it polarizes people[18:32] How two longtime friends turned complementary strengths into a thriving partnership[20:10] The hidden cost of the grind and what “balance” really looks like for women founders[23:14] Why creatives must master business to sustain their artistry long-term[32:18] How losing the wrong investor opened the door to raising money on their own terms[36:52] The single mindset shift that helps them push through every obstacleUse code MAKERS15 for a discount at www.highbrowhippie.comResources Mentioned:Dream Ventures Accelerator | WebsiteHighbrow Hippie | WebsiteFollow Highbrow Hippie on Instagram.Follow Myka on Instagram and LinkedIn.Follow Kadi on LinkedIn.Follow Nancy Twine:Instagram: @nancytwinewww.nancytwine.comFollow Makers Mindset:Instagram: @makersmindsetspaceTikTok: @themakersmindsetwww.makersmindset.com

It started with a date we all remember for other reasons — June 26, 2009 — the night Anna stumbled onto a secret that would haunt her for years. While borrowing her best friend's laptop, Anna discovered a mysterious folder labeled “Him.” Inside were two documents — personal journal entries describing eerie encounters with a dark figure who appeared at night and whispered through dreams. She brushed it off as fiction… until she met Him herself. It began with a black silhouette between two houses. Then came the suffocating pressure that pinned her down in her own kitchen. And finally — the night at the bonfire. In the dark Oregon woods, Anna found her friend in the arms of a man who wasn't human. The air shimmered, time fractured, and everything went black. When she woke, her friend insisted “He” had only been protecting them — that He cared for her, even loved her. But from what? And at what cost? Years later, Anna still feels Him near — in mirrors, in tree-lines, in the silence before sleep. Some stories don't end. They wait. #RealGhostStories #TrueHaunting #ParanormalMystery #UnseenEntity #PossessionStory #CreepyPastaVibes #OregonHaunting #SupernaturalEncounters #Him #HauntedFriendship #Ghosts #Spirits #Paranormal Love real ghost stories?

When Evangelical Zeal Meets Ancient Christianity: A Conversation Between FriendsWhat happens when two long-time friends—one a passionate evangelical content creator, the other a devout Eastern Orthodox Christian—sit down inside a church filled with ancient icons to talk about faith, history, and what it means to follow Jesus? In this compelling and heartfelt dialogue, David Latting and Ben Langlois (Orthodox Luigi) offer something rare: a conversation marked by both conviction and deep mutual respect.Though they come from very different traditions, David and Ben's friendship sets the tone for an honest, disarming exchange. David opens up about his spiritual journey—how intense theological debates with Muslims drove him to investigate church history, and how walking through ancient cathedrals awakened a hunger for something deeper than modern formulas. In a moment of raw vulnerability, he describes being moved to tears during an Orthodox liturgy, even while remaining rooted in his Protestant community. “I want to break that wall,” he says, referring to the misconceptions that often prevent evangelicals from seriously engaging with Orthodoxy.Ben responds not with defensiveness, but with clarity and grace. He explains Orthodox Christianity's understanding of apostolic succession, the theological meaning of icons as “windows into heaven,” and how salvation is seen not as a one-time event, but a lifelong process of becoming more like Christ. His insights are never presented as a challenge to Protestant faith, but as an invitation to consider the historical richness of the early Church.Together, David and Ben reflect on the hunger many Christians feel today for worship that is Christ-centered, reverent, and historically rooted. They share a mutual concern about the rise of personality-driven church culture and discuss how liturgical structure and ancient rhythms offer spiritual depth that many young believers are longing for.What makes this conversation so meaningful isn't just the exchange of ideas—it's the way both men keep Jesus at the center. They demonstrate how friendship, humility, and shared love for the gospel can bridge even deep theological divides.Whether you're Protestant, Orthodox, or simply curious about the richness of Christian tradition, this conversation invites you to reflect more deeply on your own faith journey.

Send us a textIt finally happened! TV and Hello Nurse officially tied the knot over Memorial Day weekend last week, and EstoBro was so delighted to be there for it. Throughout standing up at the wedding, he crossed paths with another groomsman that he sparked a great connection with: Seany Mags (1:15). When TV heard that one of his New York brethren was making it as a guest on the show, he had to make his slight return and give Mr. Mags an excellent opening gesture. With the ongoing opening to the TV wedding series episodes, EstoBro highlights the first time meeting Mags: taking him to his first New York Mets game in 2016 (9:00). The trio of gentlemen start the show focusing on all things Mets; from the Yankees not getting over Juan Soto leaving for Queens to the ripple effect of the Mets trading away Pete Crow-Armstrong to the Chicago Cubs. With TV back in attendance, he was happy to run a vintage version of the show with Mags and highlight the record-breaking box office weekend for the holiday (28:30). For Memorial Day weekend, Disney's live adaptation of Lilo and Stitch and the final chapter of Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible series were released on the same day. The two movies combined, alongside some other blockbuster smashes, brought in an estimated $330 million; who said going to the movies is dead? Another highlighted circumstance on why EstoBro wants Mags to come on the program is that he shares the same general interest in EDM music (46:20). Their guest even shares his story on how he knows somebody in the business, as they focus on the next major music festival coming up in New York: Governor's Ball. With EstoBro anticipating Bonnaroo in a few weeks, he encourages TV and Mr. Mags they invade this music festival in the foreseeable future as they review the lineup for this year's Governor's BallTheme song made by iamRavedadInteract with the Gents of the podcast on the following social media platforms:X (Formally known as Twitter) YouTube InstagramBlog/websiteJoin the Discord serverSubscribe to the official playlist of the podcast
