Set Hike!

Do you want the good news or bad news first?...The Good news: the crew acquire yet another World-famous guest like they’re building a sports-chaos Avengers roster, this time calling Ryan Winchester after his mathematically absurd two-hole-in-one round at Rolling Green — immediately christened "The Double Winchester." Ryan calmly explains the miracle while the hosts try to process it thro...

Turtle arrives dressed like the founding father of Knicks anxiety in a pair of extra-medium Knickerbockers, and the boys immediately turn the NBA playoffs into a celebrity loyalty investigation involving Spike Lee, Ozempic Joe, courtside beer hazards, and the unsung battlefield heroism of NBA mop guys. The episode then somehow becomes a Supreme Court case on horse rights, where Dr. TAT defends Spu...

The boys begin Episode 26 by mourning the completely real and definitely-not-made-up departure of AJ Brown to New England, triggering a full-scale Philadelphia sports grief spiral before somehow landing an interview with legendary children's author Jerry Pallotta. What follows is 30 minutes of animal warfare, gorilla propaganda, killer whale facts, and the revelation that a king cobra might b...

The 25th inaugural episode of Set Hike celebrates a quarter-century of podcasting the only way this show knows how: by starting with dead goldfish, betta-fish gang warfare, and a heated debate over what a group of Krimpets should be called. The crew then spirals through Memorial Day guilt, PGA Championship chaos, Rory McIlroy's apparent war on patriotic hecklers, robot referees with legal rig...

Stat Boy makes his triumphant return to the podcast after disappearing into a secret statistics convention and immediately helps break down the emotional war crimes committed against Philadelphia sports fans, somehow pivoting from the death of “The Process” into a full-blown atomic physics lecture involving Joel Embiid as a proton and Tobias Harris as a neutron who “does nothing.” Then, in a shock...

The boys attempt to survive a full episode without Stat Boy and immediately replace him with a morally questionable AI called “StatGPT,” a machine apparently powered by deforestation, fake confidence, and Gary Busey filmography analysis. What begins as Eagles draft talk quickly devolves into an emergency summit on the Mount Rushmore of “successful ugly actors,” where Willem Dafoe, Steve Buscemi, D...

The boys return after a “lost” draft-night recording that may or may not belong in the Hall of Fame, immediately diving headfirst into a chaotic Eagles draft debate featuring windshield-smashing metaphors, citrus-based wide receivers, and a 300-pound Nigerian combine superhero who might actually be built in a lab. Just when it feels like a football podcast, Panda Dan hijacks the show and transform...

The three caballeros return for the 21st inaugural episode (which is either mathematically impossible or spiritually accurate) and immediately dive into the true hard-hitting topic: how long new car smell survives Taco Bell and human existence? What follows is a chaotic blend of volatile organic compounds (aka VOCs), Dr. Jimmy John’s bread gut confessions, and a Masters betting flex that somehow t...

The boys accidentally become an international sensation, most notably in Southeast Asia, and immediately respond by discussing… Tunisia ladder war crimes, the backside of the moon being "mid," and whether aliens would respect Steve Buscemi. Somewhere between Call of Duty diplomacy, Nutella in space, and picking Dustin Hoffman as Earth's ambassador, this episode spirals into a philos...

Three grown men treat altar serving like a Division I pipeline, complete with depth charts, incense specialists, and funeral NIL deals—before pivoting seamlessly into breaking down the Artemis launch like it’s the Super Bowl of rockets. Dr. TAT celebrates the birth of a new mandatory listener (huge for the podcast’s long-term rebuild), while Stat Boy simultaneously proposes forced podcast consumpt...

This episode starts as a sports podcast and quickly devolves into a philosophical debate about pizza grease ratios, whether brown is a wearable lifestyle, and if Joe Burrow is being groomed by Jessica Alba (jury still out). Slayer makes her long-awaited in-person debut and immediately destabilizes the bracket economy by picking Texas like a chaos agent. Meanwhile, Stat Boy questions reality (Lehig...

The boys return from their self-imposed podcast Rumspringa to discover that Pizza Odyssey has collapsed, Eagles free agency has detonated, and Maxx Crosby may have been the victim of the most suspicious medical exam since a Baltimore DMV vision test. Along the way they rank childhood cereals like it’s the NFL Draft, debate the morality of the Ravens organization, invent the TJ Maxx Defensive Line,...

This week the boys celebrate the 16th inaugural episode by reliving driver’s test trauma, debating whether A.J. Brown needs an Amish-style sabbatical, and officially declaring themselves an international podcast empire (Australia AND Spain, baby). There’s a flaming Nissan Pathfinder near Egg Harbor, a DMV instructor who may have stormed Iwo Jima, and a spirited argument over whether the Eagles win...

The 15th inaugural episode of Set Hike returns from the dead after last week’s “Hindenburg audio disaster,” and immediately pivots into skiing morality debates, Super Mario metaphysics, Bryce Harper existentialism, Colombian stem cell tourism, and whether Clearwater Beach is the Delco of Florida (it is). Dr. TAT diagnoses Lindsey Vonn mid-sentence, Panda Dan provides an unsolicited Phillies touris...

The Set Hike crew celebrates February (objectively the best month because it’s shorter), debates the legitimacy of Groundhog Day whistle pigs, and spends an alarming amount of time litigating sandwich law, condiment ethics, and whether jelly + fluff is a felony. What starts as Puppy Bowl analysis spirals into Ivy League mascot combat, Super Bowl MVP voter conspiracies, Olympic torch security conce...

February opens with a groundhog identity crisis, spirals into the Eagles’ coaching staff being Thanos-snapped, and somehow lands on ferrets as sentient socks and Puppy Bowl scouting reports. The hosts mourn the loss of Stoutland like a fallen general, canonize Sean Mannion as both savior and mystery, and declare Santa Clara a fraudulent city built on bad vibes and worse geography. Along the way, t...

What begins as a harmless weather complaint session immediately derails into an unregulated Arnold Schwarzenegger Impression Olympics, before somehow evolving into a deeply unserious investigation of the exact copper value of Olympic bronze medals—naturally raising the question of whether Jim Bob Cooter (a man, a mystery, and possibly a Junior Bacon Cheeseburger) should be the next offensive coord...

The Set Hike crew reconvenes after the Eagles’ season ends in emotional violence, immediately assigning blame to French cologne, Australian meat pies, Travis Fulgham, coordinated stadium signage, and a single missed extra point that altered the space-time continuum. What follows is a grief spiral disguised as football analysis, featuring Star Wars analogies, scorpion folklore, Rob Reiner sightings...

What starts as an Eagles playoff preview immediately devolves into apologies about Taye Diggs, shaving routines, and the shocking revelation that Vic Fangio motivates his defense with actual meatballs. Between backup QB sacrifice rituals, animal-versus-people Super Bowl math, and an all-time meat-filled food tangent, the gang lands on one undeniable truth: if the Eagles are going to win it all, we...

The Eagles win in Buffalo, which should bring joy, peace, and playoff confidence—but instead sparks yelling, superstition, and a full investigation into the importance of long snappers. The defense is elite, the offense disappears on cue, Charley Hughlett may be a swamp-born terminator, weather is ranked via wed/bed/kill, and the Diggs family tree is legally avoided. A victory, a breakdown, and wh...

Festivus arrives early as the Set Hike! crew celebrates the Eagles clinching the NFC East by arguing about Pro Bowls, economics, Christmas movies, Midwest accents, and whether watching a game “hard enough” affects the outcome. Computer Scott returns for another Make-A-Wish–caliber appearance, Stat Boy deploys an irresponsible number of monitors, and Josh Johnson is officially declared one of the T...

The Eagles absolutely erase the Raiders, and the Set Hike! crew celebrates by spiraling into a wide-ranging discussion that somehow connects fourth-down analytics, Tanner McKee trade value, and the unspoken rules of elevator behavior. Along the way, Dr. TAT, Panda Dan, and Stat Boy explore why elite quarterbacks hate losing more than they love winning, why joy can still be violent, and why anyone...

This episode is an emotional roller coaster disguised as a football podcast, as the crew attempts to unpack Jalen Hurts’ never-before-seen “Turnover Centipede,” a three-stage catastrophe so strange it needed its own scientific classification. While diagnosing the Eagles’ offensive identity crisis and debating whether Kevin Patullo is actually Mad-Eye Moody in a visor, the guys also detour into a f...

In this episode of Set Hike , the crew unravels a bizarre week in Eagles football, from the Black Friday meltdown to the rising legend of Tanner McKee and the alleged Kirk Herbstreit curse haunting the schedule. What begins as game analysis quickly spirals into McGurk’s sweater lore, Pokémon scouting reports, Full House family therapy analogies, and an existential debate about whether the team nee...

In this Thanksgiving-week episode, the crew breaks down the Eagles’ brutal loss to Dallas, debates what’s really wrong with the offense, and spirals beautifully into chaos involving weather patterns, cartoon bears, biomechanics, and celestial bodies. Along the way, Stat Boy delivers his most unhinged “statistics” yet, Turtle derails the show via Jellystone Park, and a mystery listener from Boardma...
