Just me with JUST THE ESSENTIALS! This episode is just me kinda breaking down how some clubs work out here and just general comedy. It’s all still new and confusing to me so I use this podcast now to unload all my half baked thoughts. Enjoy

Mateus goes California 13.09.2021

Sup duuudes?! This episode is JUST me! Just how it started. Just The Essentials lives on. I’ve had a wild trip out here and recorded this episode from my deflated air mattress so it’s pretty fun to listen to. I’m alone and still find a way to bitch moan and complain

The LAST episode of JTE as YOU know it 03.09.2021

This is the MOTHER of all episodes! The last episode I record with Jeff Lidala, Dusty Estepp and James Godwin. ALSO, the roasters who are on the roast of ME(Lukas Mateus) are ALLLLLL featured on this episode! You got Tucker Lappi, Brandon Gerber, Shaena, Halima Abshir, Ty Moore and of course Henry Allen! It was a lot of fun and wild, so buckle up for this one.

Johnny Collins the new host 27.08.2021

This is a cringe worthy episode to say the least.. I’m moving out of Ohio so I’ve kinda lost any reason to care. Life is short and we all die, so whatevs! Johnny Collins is a good friend and funny comic here in Columbus and starting after I leave, your new host for the open mic at The Shrunkenhead bar in Columbus! I talk a lot of shit on this episode so I guess this is the part where I say “bye”.....
