Bloodline Banter

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week we’re joined by none other than our favorite comedian in the whole world, Mr. Hugh Howser, who shows up dressed like the head of the PTO and immediately takes the whole episode off the rails. We start with how nobody in this room loved Halloween as a kid, and then it gets worse (better?) from there. Riley takes us through sleeping in his grandma’s sewing...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! It’s episode 40, which is apparently a whole pregnancy’s worth of us running our mouths, and this week we’re doing it with tequila shots at an 8:30 a.m. charity breakfast, a spontaneous road trip to Georgia, and a Christmas tree already up on the kitchen counter. We kick things off with why we’d rather scrub our baseboards with a toothbrush than step foot in a hau...

Welcome back to another episode of Bloodline Banter! This week, we have a familiar face back in the studio! By popular demand, Skylar Oxford is joining us again, and you already know things are about to get out of hand! We’re recapping our trip to New York City, seeing ourselves on a Times Square billboard, and why we might not be cut out for big-city living. Between a questionable Uber driver, so...

Welcome back to another episode of Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re catching y’all up on everything happening in our lives as we settle into our new places, get back into our routines, and embrace a fresh new chapter! We’re talking about everything from our sleep schedules and the little things that come with moving to friendships, everyday experiences, and all the random thoughts that have been...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re in the middle of moving, barely packed, throwing half our apartments away, and somehow still making time to run out mouth about everything else going on in our lives. We start with our hatred for Halloween and why we’d take a fall festival, apple cider, and a hayride over haunted houses and giant skeletons any day. Then we’re still trying to proce...

Welcome back to another episode of Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re asking the questions nobody else seems concerned about — like what NBC is doing studying our fridges, why people are dressing up as wildlife and wandering around fields, and who exactly decided how Social Security numbers and phone numbers get picked. Naturally, that sends us down a rabbit hole involving Dollar General and the r...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, Riley and Landon are back with a whole lot of opinions, very little patience, and absolutely no plans to mind their own business. From engagements that last longer than the actual marriage to unspoken prayer requests that are really just an invitation to gossip, the cousins have a few things they need to get off their chests.   Riley relives the trauma...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re coming in hot after scrapping an entire episode, and apparently that was all it took for us to completely lose the plot. We start with Landon preparing for a potential trip to jail over a forgotten ticket—mugshot merch, wanted posters, and a bail-out plan already in the works—only to find out the whole crisis could be solved with $200. From there,...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, the one and only Danae Hays is joining us, and buckle the hell up because this one goes everywhere Danae takes us back to her small-town Alabama roots, tells us how the legendary Sharon Jean came to life, and explains why her girlfriend Jen is still trying to make sense of Southern phrases like “used to could” and “tumped it over.” We get into growing u...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, our best friend Kiersten joins us for an episode that goes completely off the rails — and casually drops the news that she’s leaving Nashville and moving back to Texas. Before we can properly mourn the friendship, we have bigger problems to address: apparently she doesn’t like sweet tea, cornbread, collard greens OR chicken casserole, so naturally her e...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where absolutely nothing was planned and somehow everything became a topic. This week, we’re bouncing from why the Smoky Mountains are basically Vegas for Baptists and the absolute robbery happening at the gas pump, to childhood reading logs, school lunches, cartoons, fast-food burger rankings, and why nobody has 35 minutes to caramelize an onion.   We also get in...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re running on no sleep after spending nearly 24 hours at the hospital waiting on Landon’s sister to have her baby—and somehow eating our way through half of Chattanooga in the process. We recap the chaos of the waiting room, the birth, and everything that happened during one very long day. Then we get into grandparents feeding squirrels biscuits, peo...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we’re all over the place in the best way possible. We kick things off with Riley’s completely unhinged dream involving Canada, a Ferris wheel, some famous friends, and somehow our old high school guidance counselor before taking a trip down memory lane to talk about what we were actually like in high school—and the advice we’d give anyone having to surv...

If your family has ever claimed they could heal burns, predict babies, or cure warts... this episode is for you. Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week we're swapping some of the wildest Southern family stories we've ever heard including our cousin, who could actually talk the fire out of a burn, our Granny that could rub warts away, and the old pencil-on-a-string trick that somehow always se...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where our life advice is free for a reason and our luck on the interstate is somehow even cheaper. This week we're talking about the piece of metal that flew off a semi and absolutely destroyed Landon's car, why an ordinary drive turned into an interstate demolition derby, and whether moving to Franklin might actually be worth the headache. We also recap our trip...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where this week includes waking up four separate times just to eat, willingly paying $200 to have our chest hair ripped out, and making the case that an egg in ramen is one of the greatest culinary inventions of all time. Food completely takes over this episode as we rank the ultimate Southern breakfast and dinner, debate the meals that raised us, and somehow spen...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where this week we're covering everything from why the internet thinks Landon secretly got married to whether Texas deserves to be called part of the South. We kick things off by catching up after a few days apart, talking sleep scores, Botox appointments, spending habits that may or may not be getting out of hand, and why planning a vacation sounds a whole lot ea...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where this week we’re sweating like rotisserie chickens, arguing that Dolly Parton may have outdone Buc-ee’s, and trying to solve the mystery of why someone’s charcoal-coated ground beef landed on Riley’s apartment windowsill. We spiral into Southern heat that’ll make you question your deodorant, Landon’s solo beach trip complete with shark sightings and fake IDs,...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter, where this week we somehow manage to turn a conversation about sleep scores into a full-blown debate over vodka, Chick-fil-A, and what we think Heaven's menu looks like. We kick things off comparing our Oura sleep scores before diving into our drinks of choice, why dirty martinis taste like salad dressing, and whether vodka sodas are actually enjoyable or just pun...

This episode starts with our sleep scores and somehow spirals into childhood illnesses, public school memories, and why Southern people can turn a double-wide into a luxury estate with enough porch additions and Home Depot lumber. We also relive some of our finest moments, including getting kicked out of Lowe's after making announcements over the intercom, debating whether private school kids are...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we're catching up after another weekend on the road and discussing the realities of traveling across the South, from long-haul road trips and festival crowds to the point where you finally decide you're too old to spend fourteen hours in a vehicle. We recap our time at Rock the Country, share some of the more interesting characters we encountered along...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter! This week, we're joined by the one and only Abby Lee Miller, and from the moment she sits down, the conversation goes completely off the rails. Abby gives us a major life update, talks about what she's been up to since television, shares her thoughts on some of her former dancers, and opens up about recent health developments. We also dive into the realities of li...

Welcome back to another chaotic episode of Bloodline Banter, where this week starts with questionable sleep scores, Landon sleeping like a Victorian corpse, and a valet company that somehow managed to turn a routine parking job into a blown tire and a full-blown customer service nightmare. Naturally, this spirals into a rant about apartment parking, Tesla surveillance footage, and the growing susp...

Welcome back to another chaotic episode of Bloodline Banter, where this week somehow turns into a full discussion about raw Mexican restaurant chicken, the downfall of Pizza Hut, impossible gym membership cancellations, fake résumés, DoorDash drivers refusing to come upstairs, and why every small town only has pizza and Mexican food. We also debate croutons, church potlucks, Krispy Kreme runs in P...

Welcome back to Bloodline Banter where this week we start off talking about Family Feud and somehow end up debating horse farms, marathon running, organ donation, and why root beer tastes like something that should never have been approved for human consumption. This episode is completely all over the place in the best way possible. We get into sleep scores, gym goals, Cherry Coke addictions, soci...
