BTLS | 9AM Mon, Jan. 5 - $70K Meltdown, NYC Mayor Shock & Bubba Army Money Talk Jan 05, 2026

Show notes

Bubba kicks off the hour with raw studio banter and a fresh round of Bubba Army fundraising, shouting out PayPal, Venmo, and Cash App while breaking Dan’s balls over a jaw-dropping $70,000 spend that’s still stressing everyone out. The crew pivots into New York politics, tearing into the new mayor’s inauguration, wondering how a city of roughly 8.2–8.3 million people ends up with about a million votes deciding the race, and parsing the oath of office for Zoran Kwame as a symbol of where the city’s headed. They chew on what his win says about the Democratic Party’s tug-of-war between moderates and the far-left, then close by comparing their own donation grind to a PBS-style pledge drive, with a tongue-in-cheek nod to a reported $199,000 haul for PBS News.

BTLS | 8AM Mon, Jan. 5 - "Maduro On Ice"! Jan 05, 2026

Show notes

Bubba and the crew get uncomfortably real as Larry lays out how one brutal slip on the ice left him barely able to walk, with an MRI showing multi-level lumbar damage, a loose disc fragment, spinal stenosis, and nerve root compression from L3 through S1. They talk through his game plan of injections, stretching, traction, and physical therapy to dodge the knife for as long as possible, while everyone reacts to how close he came to total shutdown. The conversation then swings global as the show breaks down reports that Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro has been grabbed by U.S. forces on narco-terrorism and weapons charges, noting how China, Russia, and North Korea backed him while China bought up Venezuelan oil. Bubba’s crew compares the move to the Noriega era, walks through what a federal arraignment and trial could look like, and wonders whether Maduro ends up convicted, flipped, or folded into a historic plea deal.

BTLS | 7AM Mon, Jan. 5 - Pig Roast! Party Vibes! Light The Mandora! Jan 05, 2026

Show notes

Bubba and the crew unload on Dave Chappelle’s latest Netflix special, blasting the heavy political tone and saying the laughs just aren’t there like they used to be. A holiday story about a high-dollar Louis Vuitton gift exposes family tension, jealousy, and how one over-the-top present can wreck the whole gift-exchange vibe. The conversation then shifts to global stakes as they talk through the indictment of a Venezuelan leader on narco-terror, drug trafficking, and weapons charges, teasing a future deep dive into how the U.S. capture went down.

BTLS | 6AM Mon, Jan. 5 - The $7,500 Cream Machine Jan 05, 2026

Show notes

Bubba kicks off the first show of 2026 by admitting the studio’s got a serious fly problem and threatening to fog the whole downstairs while the Bubba Army keeps the lights on. The crew rips into the building’s bunker-grade concrete walls, jokes about bulldozing the place when the lease is up, and daydreams about a big stadium move turning their land into prime real estate. In between the chaos, Bubba hypes new Bubba Army Terry cloth beach/shower towels at a listener-friendly $19.99 and reminds fans that every order helps keep studio payroll rolling. The gang also debates the fate of the legendary “cream machine” bus: sell it for around $7,500, donate it, or gut it and turn it into a stripped-down podcast/video van—while Macho and the tech crew get tapped to make a turnkey rolling studio a reality. To top it off, Bubba throws a plug to Terry at Preferred Auto Service for anyone needing honest car work in Tampa, proving even a fly-infested New Year opener can turn into a full-on Bubba brand business meeting on air.

Bubba The Love Sponge® Grills Erik Holt on the Colorado Small-Town Meltdown. Dec 24, 2025

Show notes

Former fire chief and Iraq veteran Erik Holt sits down with Bubba the Love Sponge® to walk through the chaos that exploded inside a rural Colorado fire district, from backroom disputes and small-town power plays to accusations that someone crossed the line when the 2023 board election rolled around. Holt explains how he went from military deployment to the chief’s office at the Florissant Fire Protection District, then found himself in the middle of bitter internal battles, with surveillance cameras turned into evidence and a community split over who was actually telling the truth.

In this episode, Bubba presses Holt on the pressure surrounding the 2023 district election, what really happened with election watchers and security footage, and how that all collided with the decisions that ended his time as interim chief. Holt also breaks down the criminal inquiry, the public fallout, and the federal lawsuit he filed, Holt v. Florissant Fire Protection District, a case that was ultimately dismissed but left serious questions about free speech, retaliation, and who bore the brunt of small-town politics gone nuclear.

BTLS | The Best of Bubba the Love Sponge® - Bubba’s Twisted Christmas Best Of III. Dec 23, 2025

Show notes

The show fires up with “Snake Wrangling Around the Christmas Tree,” as Bubba and the crew turn a simple holiday bit into a full-on reptile rodeo in the studio, complete with panic, bad decisions, and nonstop laughing. From there, it’s a rapid-fire run of classic Clemisms, highlighting Bubba’s most unforgettable one-liners, verbal trainwrecks, and quotable moments that only the BRN could produce.

A heartfelt message from Rebecca cuts through the chaos, bringing a rare dose of sincerity and behind-the-scenes emotion to the madness. But the sentiment doesn’t last long, because it’s “that time of the month for Bubba,” and the mood swings, meltdowns, and overreactions become their own on-air bit as the crew pokes the bear and pays the price.

If you like your holiday content unfiltered, unpredictable, and dangerously close to going off the rails, this Best Of Bubba The Love Sponge® episode is the perfect wrong-side-of-Christmas listen.
