Been Trying To Meet You

TWO WEEKS IN A ROW?!!??! Can we keep this up? Do you want us to? Also we have sub-par video. We will continue to toy with the video part.. but here it is. Toby is a criminal. We have proof. Feel free to turn him into the authorities.

Ah, the humble beginnings of Been Trying to Meet You , where it was just Robb and Toby, a microphone, and absolutely no plan. In this throwback episode, the dynamic duo makes their triumphant-ish return after a mysterious hiatus they refuse to apologize for. What’s on the docket? Batman. Probably. Maybe. Also, Robb had a birthday, and you’d think Toby would have remembered… but did he? This is an...

Welcome to Season 2 of Been Trying to Meet You! Honestly, we’re just as surprised as you are that we made it this far. In this episode, Toby and Robb catch up on everything we missed over the last six months (spoiler: a lot). From half-baked plans to awkward reflections, we think we’ve got a strategy to actually keep this podcast going. Will it work? Eh, stay tuned to find out. This episode is equ...

Throwing it back to April 24, 2023—before Jim joined the crew, before video, and before we knew what we were doing (do we now?). In this episode, Toby and Robb return from their self-imposed quarantine with some very important discussions about… well, things you may or may not find interesting. Oh, and Toby boldly declares, “Covid is officially over.” Hot take? Definitely. Accurate? Who knows. It’...

In this early BTtMY gem, Robb and Toby are joined by Russ, who’s finally escaped Tennessee for some in-person chaos. They totally nailed this recording with zero issues—because obviously, they’re podcasting professionals (wink). With a title like “Yoga Pants Are a Privilege, Not a Right,” you know this episode dives into hot takes, questionable humor, and plenty of moments that’ll make you laugh,...

In this throwback episode of BTtMY titled “What’s Happening in Utah?” from February 19, 2023, Toby calls in from Moab with the worst internet connection imaginable. What did we talk about? Honestly, we’re not sure either—but the Super Bowl gets a mention, Toby gripes about calorie counting, and somehow space aliens factor into why this episode is shorter than usual. For new listeners, this is clas...

It finally happened— OMG WE FINALLY WENT TO RED LOBSTER! In this unforgettable episode from December 22, 2022, Toby officially becomes a man as we bask in the glory of Cheddar Bay Biscuits and seafood dreams. It was everything we hoped for and more (yes, there was dipping sauce). Oh, and we probably talk about Avatar at some point. Honestly, this episode is 90% buttery carbs, 10% everything else....

In Red Lobster and the Tale of Rodger the Elephant (December 10, 2022), Toby and Robb return from a brief hiatus to catch up and bring the chaos. From holiday vibes to random tangents, including the mysterious and completely ridiculous story of Rodger the Elephant, this episode is the perfect blend of “what are we even doing?” and “okay, this is fun.” Celebrate the holidays, enjoy some laughs, and...

In City Flags, Wal-Mart, and Dick Wolf (September 1, 2022), Ed Mejia joins the chaos to defend the great state of Nebraska. Spoiler: Nebraska has multiple Targets, so it’s already doing better than Kansas. The crew dives deep into the wonder of Runzas (and why they are not midwest hot pockets) while lightly roasting Kansas and sprinkling in random tangents about city flags, Wal-Mart, and Dick Wolf...

In Baseball: Abridged (August 23, 2022), Chris Johnson drops by for a home run of an episode filled with baseball, baseball cards, toys, and, of course, food. It’s everything you’ve come to expect from us: a mix of nostalgia, snacks, and wildly off-topic tangents that somehow make perfect sense. Whether you’re a baseball fanatic, a collector, or just hungry for laughs, this episode hits all the ba...

In Bo Jackson (June 29, 2022), Toby makes his triumphant return from the dead (or, you know, his hiatus). The crew dives back into the legend of Beverly—because once isn’t enough—and tackles a series of questions they absolutely don’t have answers for. This episode is classic BTtMY: chaotic, weirdly relaxing, and perfect for sipping a soda while hanging out. Grab a drink, press play, and enjoy the...

In That Creep Can Roll (May 26, 2022), we take the podcast on location to a bowling alley for a truly legendary episode—featuring the first-ever appearance of Jim! The crew dives into The Batman (because obviously), and Jim cements his place in podcast history by casually dropping his personal recipe for sawmill gravy. It’s bowling, Batman, and biscuits in one unforgettable episode. If you’re new...

In The Apology Tour (May 12, 2022), Toby and Robb return from a very important short break (sorry!) to tackle the pressing issues of the day: special edition sodas and why The State is the best sketch comedy show of all time. It’s classic early BTtMY —equal parts random tangents, nostalgic debates, and unapologetic chaos. If you’re new to the show, this is a perfect slice of the nonsense that star...

In The R.I.P. Episode (March 19, 2022), Russ Attitude makes his grand debut on the podcast, bringing his unique energy to a conversation that’s mostly about snacks—because priorities. Along the way, the crew dives into wrestling, corned beef, and other wildly unrelated tangents, as is tradition. It’s a deliciously chaotic episode where snacks reign supreme, wrestling moves are debated, and corned...

In This is The Beginning (March 4, 2022), Robb and Toby launch Been Trying to Meet You with absolutely no idea what they’re doing—and it shows. From random tangents to chaotic ramblings, this first episode is a perfect introduction to the nonsense you didn’t know you needed. It’s awkward, funny, and filled with the kind of “stupid stuff” they promise to get better at (eventually). Start here to wi...
