Pretend To Know

Vacations Near and Far

The guys cover the weirdest topic to date this week. Digital celebrities. Wholly made up people who are signing contracts and earning endorsement deals. Celebrities turning themselves into digital versions so they can star in overseas commercials. And a MASSIVE announcement about Trivia Night. Tune in, subscribe, rate 5 stars, tell your friends!

Digital Celebrities (and a BIG announcement)

As promised, Mike is back in town and we have a fresh new episode for you! The guys dive into what makes a food “super”. Are there really these magical foods out there that are better than others? Or are they just better for the wallets of the people that sell them? Hold on to your pomegranates… we’re going in!

Are Superfoods A Scam?

Our busy travel schedule is your gain! With so many new listeners to the show (and mostly the fact that Mike is out of town all the time now) we decided to put together a show that highlighted some of our favorite moments on the show. Check it out and we will see you next week!

The Best Bits (So Far...)

Pollution is to the earth like dad jokes are to our podcast… everywhere. This week the guys kick around some of the effects of pollution that you don’t often hear about. From making the beaches unsafe to causing a domino effect from one test that could ruin your whole life! Tune in. And hey… if you are reading this far you probably like us… so TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

Pollution: Health, Crime, & Unsafe Beaches

Ever wondered what the top snacks purchased at an airport are? How about the top illegal animal smuggled through? What about Astronauts coming back from the moon? Well... we will teach you how to fake conversation on any of those things this week!

Air Travel: Top Snacks, Smuggled Animals, and The Moon

This week the guys talk go a little cat heavy… on accident. They talk about a programmer who is using AI on his pet doors, Cats who are mayors of real towns, and a ghost blimp. All of that plus What Beer Did You Drink, Hyperthetical question and Kiko’s favorite YouTube video.

Pet Door AI, Ghost Blimps, The Cat Mayors

This week the guys talk about a TON of stuff. First of all did you know people hire screen time consultants? What about electric car emissions? Ever wonder how Joey Chestnut trains for his eating contests? This is YOUR episode!

Screen Time Consultants, Emissions, Joey Chestnut

This week the guys talk about something that happens to all of us, but maybe we didn’t know it existed. Ever wonder how you can make a choice you know might be bad for you, but then you just come up with a reason why it’s ok? Well jump in for that, talk about a turtle named Marty, a Cucumber Song, and why Brice is THE Halal Guy.

Cognitive Dissonance (And Marty the Turtle)

This week is a little loose, but was still a great time. The guys go over what blew their mind (one is way less depressing than the other) and highlight Brice being featured on NPR in Kansas City. More “real” topics next week!

Micheladas and Kool Aid

This week the guys go over a TON of misconceptions that everyone just thinks are true. But they are not. They also have a jumbo sized "blow your mind" segment and "what beer did you drink?". I know what you are thinking and yes.. this is different than the "Old Wive's Tales" episode.

Common Misconceptions

Mike and Kiko read a book and became obsessed with Tesla and Edison. One was one of the most brilliant minds ever and one guy killed elephants and dogs to prove a point. Also this fight could be the reason we have modern law firms. And there was a rich guy in Pittsburgh with a private railroad.

The Current Wars (Tesla & Edison)

This episode is a little all over the place, but after a week off the guys are back! Kiko is a dad now so they discuss that and go through what blew their mind. Also, a HUGE surprise is revealed from podcasts past.

Kiko's a Dad!

The guys decided to extend one segment across the whole show…. aka the guys wanted to talk about beer. So they did. For a long time. Check it out to learn the history of beer, where we are today, and don’t forget what blew our mind this week!

Beer

The guys became obsessed with the Netflix documentary “Behind the Curve” so they did an episode on it! While its mainly about their thoughts on the reasoning behind the new flat earth movement and people like Mark Sargent, the guys do a quick overview on their thoughts on the newest internet craze — the flat earth movement.

Flat Earth?

Each week we take a topic and teach you jusssstt enough to fake your way through a conversation. You may learn something and laugh a little! Then again, you may not.
