BBQ & BS

Thom and Ron are back after three weeks off with the full rib cook-off recap: almost 250 gallons of sauce, a 180-degree sauce burn, a competition sauce that came out too sweet (ninth overall, but fifth on sauce), brisket costs pushing four grand, and jalapeno cheddar sausages that sold out completely. They talk through a nonstop catering season, losing one of their favorite wedding venues, and mak...

BBQ & BS Ep 78 — After Dark Special Late-night unhinged Wednesday. Pants come off, mics get murdered, and Ron and Thom go full feral on the Hawk Fire road closures that locked North Valleys families and businesses out of their own damn homes while the fire was already north and power was back on. Ron’s “open Virginia Street” video hits 15.5k views. Facebook volunteer fire chiefs and keyboard heroe...

Holy shit, the high desert is on fire, the cameras are watching, and we’re finally getting paid by Pour Caddy. First check just hit — 139 doll hairs and climbing. Conversions are nasty.

We talk about the Idaho In-N-Out shooter who decided a brand-new restaurant needed a body count after one week, the hero who shot back and made the fucker fold, Tesla charge ports getting blamed for murder, and why some talking head needs to eat a bag of dicks.

...Thom and Ron are back after a week of pure chaos. We roast the shit out of that one lonely Spotify commenter “Tay Tay” (the Pickle Princess), talk 12 nights of bombing Iran, Nevada trying to burn itself down again, Sparks going full bankrupt, TDS BBQ’s new spider warehouse, $40 chia-dick pets, and why people would rather stick things up their ass than have a roof. Grab a rack, grab your balls....

Thom & Ron are back dishing raw middle-finger takes. They roast Spotify's greedy metrics that only pay on their platform, the confusing “1.2K” numbers, and wild listener stats from Vietnam. They absolutely cook listener Ben — the pathetic vegetarian hunter who got kicked out of the tribe and now munches kale like a sad soyboy homo. Plus real talk: knowledge is free as fuck with AI & th...

Thom and Ron crawl through the commissary trenches battling drain fly orgies with bleach bombs while roasting the absolute shit out of paper-towel-flushing retards and the legendary beaver dam that forced a toilet pull.

Hello to our BBQ & BS crew — sorry for the radio silence! Long-distance catering gigs had us balls-deep in smoke, sweat, and non-stop hustle last week, so we couldn’t record a fresh episode.

In this week's no-holds-barred pit session, Thom & Ron fire up the grill and dive deep into the chaos that's got the world on edge: Operation Epic Fury — the massive US-Israel strikes hammering Iran's regime, nuclear sites, and military backbone since late February 2026.
