1691 D&S: Doug Actually Brought Topics? Feb 13, 2026

Show notes

I gotta admit, they do have a talent. If you call talking for 90 minutes about absolutely nothing a "talent." They really are like the Seinfeld of podcasting, a show about nothing.

1687 D&S: Hear All About Geography Around the World! Jan 30, 2026

Show notes

I want to make sure everyone reads that title correctly. I didn't say "learn" about geography because what Doug and Strickland talk about shows more of their lack of geographic knowledge, not a dearth of it. Nobody ever said they were experts! Least of all them.

1685 D&S: Jacks of All Trades, Masters of None Jan 23, 2026

Show notes

So today they talk about movies, reverse mortgages, regular mortgages, IRAs, Annuities, pellet smokers, Amazon, and guitars. How can they talk for so long about things they know almost nothing about? I guess if our current US president can do it, Doug and Strickland can too. And these guys probably know more about Greenland than Trump. At least they can find it on a map.

Damn, Doug actually came with some topics today! I can't say they were actually good ones, but they were topics. Death and Taxes? Not much originality about that.
