Everything But The Cats

Today, the boys are joined by their friend (and the mind behind their intro music) Adam Ward! Per his request, they are going to debate their way through the best movies chosen by you! Or at least by Gage's friends. This episode is to determine, once and for all, or at least until we do this again with more prep time, what the official best movie of all time is according to Everything But the...

This week, Gage and DJ continue to work their way through Until Unity. Join them as they discuss Chapter 1: It's What the Trinity Wants and the implications of unity in relationship with our nature (being made in the image of God), and the nature of God Himself (as a triune God existing in perfect unity eternally). If you would like to follow along, please get a copy of the book and join us, w...

This week, DJ has a cold, and the boys are joined, yet again, by their friend Nathan Hurley. Nathan is a founding member and the lead singer and a guitarist for Fox Royale.

Welcome to our first attempt at a book club where we will be diving into Until Unity by Francis Chan. For this series, we will take a look at the book chapter by chapter every other week (interspersed with our usual content), discussing the chapter, finding some application to our own lives, and discussing the study guide. If you would like to follow along, please get yourself a copy of the book a...

Today is not DJ's birthday, but it might as well be (go wish him a happy birthday by the way). Join us as DJ and Gage go through the developmental stages of babies...or at least how big they are on average at each week of pregnancy. Have any questions? Did we get something wrong? Leave it in the comments below! Thank you for hanging out and stay lovely! Thank you to our friends for our music Adam...

Thank you to our friends for our music Adam Ward Jared Scrowther If you have any feline needs, or love someone who does, check out our friends Orange Cat Always Or https://...

It's that time of year again, our dear friends. Santa is coming to town soon, so its time to deck those halls, jingle those bells, and fa those la la la's. But the most difficult part of Christmas remains, how do we shop for the people in our lives? Well, you could think ahead and get gifts based on their personality, wants, and needs. Or, and I would recommend this option, you could just listen t...

Happy (almost) Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones! As is our custom, we will spend this time of thankfulness looking back on the year as it has happened to each of us and some of our most memorable moments. We talk about movies, books, biggest laughs, and dumbest cries. Not to mention the big changes we have both experienced this year. And we might also have a special guest for the end of thi...

We don't typically talk about anything pop-culture, but today we have decided to dive in because we were joined by a friend who specializes in it. Take some time with us to get to know Thomas from the Joy Schtick Show (and others), and to hear some movies and tv shows that we find to be underrated. If you have any of your own that you'd like to share, please leave them in the comments below! Find...

In the Baby Archives, Gage and DJ take turns teaching each other about moments in history, areas of study, or whatever else has tickled their fancy on that given day. This week, DJ teaches Gage about two more airplane disasters (maybe even leading to a name change) in STENDEC and Flight 19. Have you heard these stories? Do you hold the keys to the mysteries? If so, please leave them in the comment...

The threat of a world war has seemed to loom overhead ever since the end of the first one. This was still true in 1976, and what might have been the tipping point to the beginning of a third world war was nothing more than a poplar tree. Dive into the story of Operation Paul Bunyan as Gage teaches DJ in another installment of our Baby Archives. Thank you to our friends for our music Adam Ward : Ja...

Gage continues to lead our fearless crew (DJ, Andrew, and Garrett) through their adventure at Leif's Harbor. Did they actually rescue Jimmy? Will Frankie open his donut shop?

Please check out our friends Adam Ward and Jared Scrowther. If you have an...

Some people grow up hearing scary stories on the playgrounds, from grandparents, or at the local soda fountain. DJ, however, heard his fair share of scary stories at home from his mother. This week, as we continue to celebrate spooky month, DJ recounts some of the more terrifying tales that his mom shared with him. If you have any favorites, share them in the comments below! For all your feline ne...

If you have any questions, suggestions, or would like to join us for any reason, email us at nocatspod@gmail.com Th...

It is not uncommon for a movie to open or advertise with the line "based on a true story." Many times, the referenced story is far from what the movie portrays, but sometimes it is much closer to reality than you may believe. This week, Gage and DJ take a look at three movies and the true stories that inspired them. If you have a favorite movie based on a true story, share it below in th...

Ah, the great outdoors. How great is it to take a weekend trip with your friends to just enjoy all the beauty that there is in nature? Well, for Gage and DJ, that wasn't their primary concern. Survival was. Join us this week as we recount the harrowing (not really) tale of how we almost died on our canoe trip (we were probably pretty safe). If you have any similar stories, share them below in...
