Our Music “Palates” Are More Sophisticated Than Yours Oct 27, 2022

Show notes

Another week and another episode of The Lunchroom is here! We debate what’s worse to reference in everyday conversation, using the “R” word or the haphazard joking use of taking your own life.

This week’s segment of who has the worse ailment or sickness brought to you by WebMD reveals all the kids of the Lunchroom crew are sick and we will all eventually be sick because of it. Kevin details his latest bout with death where he had a really high fever or he might have just worn his coat to bed that night like he did in the podcast room.

Jon’s back from being an adult that doesn’t have any kids in Walt Disney World. Everyone makes fun of him for his weird love of Disney.

We talk a little bit of sports including the Knicks, Dikembe Mutombo, and the Yankees. Everyone shares their comic and baseball card collections. The debate turns to the comparison of music and sports and which fans are worse.

More dog talk as Jesse’s dog is terrorizing the neighborhood, Kevin’s dog is eating its own poop, and we discuss the sanity of owners who dress up their dog.

We ponder if Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper got it on during filming of “Star Is Born”.

Kevin asks Kurt how far he would go to satisfy our fans on Patreon. Jesse had a meeting at a plantation so he dressed up in a turtleneck and a pair of loafers.

The topic turns to the coming winter and reminiscing about shoveling snow over the years. Kevin’s corner house requires a huge snow blower to get the job done. Finally, we do beer math and eat chocolate meatballs!

We Love Our Moms But... Oct 20, 2022

Show notes

We are back with another installment of The Lunchroom podcast. On this week's show the crew recount childhood memories of being bullied by their peers and their moms. Kevin and Jesse both remember the moment they realized they had anger issues.

We discuss the types of tough guys you might meet on the drunk train home from the city late on a Friday night. Speaking of the city, if you've been to NYC lately you are aware it's not the nicest place to visit and why would any homeless person choose to not be homeless in a warmer weather city?

The guys bring in the much talked about Viola Media employee Megan and we reestablish she's not Jesse's assistant. The first ever female voice you've ever heard here on The Lunchroom.

Plus get your weekly update on the potential for a nuclear war courtesy of Kevin Herrera of Only Raising Kings and the happenings of Kanye West courtesy of Jesse Viola of Viola Media.

The Medieval Art of Business & Bankruptcy Oct 14, 2022

Show notes

Kevin shares an awkward moment where his kid gets sick in the hardware store and he wasn’t sure what the proper reaction should be.

Jesse goes to the cardiologist and the results are… he needs more tests to rule out his athletic heart. He’s still freaking out. We discus having blood taken and everyone shares their blood types.

Jon talks about the time he got on a yellow school bus and a fake nurse stuck a needle in his arm to help get over a hangover.

Kevin and Jesse do homework with their kids. We call bullshit on high school math and the rest of the bullshit subjects they make you take that have nothing to do with anything you’ll use in real life. So we decide to fix the education system.

Jesse shares how he learned from the baddest mofo in the planet, his dad, how to be successful in business. Kevin shares his vulnerability over making the full time leap into being a comedian and creating more content.

More Kanye West talk as the creative director of Supreme speaks out about Ye using Virgil Abloh’s name as of recent to further his own fashion agenda. We look back on the OJ Simpson case and remember how outrageous of a time it was.

Kurt gets schooled on the art of bottle service and trendy nightclubs.

And finally, instagram models exposed. See ya next week!
