Life is Funny

This week, the guys talk about video games. Josh is thinking about Nintendo Switch-ing up his gaming routine, and Evan has some gaming knowledge to impart on the podcast. The guys also reminisce about how much fun it used to be to game with friends and how it was a big part of their hangout routine growing up. Don't worry, they were super cool, obviously. There's also some talk about why you might...

This week, the guys talk a LOT about "The Batman" movie that just came out. The discussion starts with a surprisingly long catch-up and recap, and it transitions into a full-fledged movie podcast about the world's latest, and longest, superhero movie. Batman is a popular character who's been portrayed many times in many ways, so how did this recent iteration do? Did former teen heart throb/vampire...

This week, the guys talk a little bit about a lot of stuff. Evan is taking a breather while back home in Ohio, so it's nice to have some actual freedom to reflect upon even if he hasn't been busy. Josh's big news is once again related to his digital money heist, so listen in to find out how that is going! The guys also talk about how to beat the system of high gas prices by buying electric cars, p...

This week, the guys just get to talking. Josh has some annoying updates about his ongoing problems with digital burglars, but he's got some Better Business Bureau backup on the way. However, FanDuel might have debt-collecting bounty hunters on the prowl to get even more money out of Josh. Evan is sleep deprived and a little all over the place, but he still knows how to skirt the boundaries of the...

This week, the hackers are taking over! Fortunately, they haven't gotten around to taking control of the LIF Podcast or its accounts. Unfortunately, they found a new mark in Josh and stole from him! The experience leads the guys to talk a lot about cybersecurity, hacking, and other related content. Tune in because Evan might slip up and share more personal info than he'd like. There's also MANY Fa...

This week, the guys are staying verwy qwiet... cuz they're hunting habits! After last week's teaser, the guys dive into some conversation about daily habits, especially ones involving phone use. Evan might triple Josh's daily screen time, but is that a bad thing? Who's to say what the best way to use your phone and your free time is? Overall, maybe it's just a personal preference and there's no 'r...

This week, the guys brush off a bad week by talking a surprising amount about personal hygiene. They also rinse off a rough week with some talk about showering habits. While these topics might not seem weird on the surface, they are odd considering they come after a breakdown of what Evan describes as his most emotionally, mentally, and physically draining week in recent memory. Combining frozen p...

This week, the guys talk about some interesting things. Heck, just read the title again and try to guess what this episode is about! The early portion is dominated by a long breakdown of Evan's busy and expensive weekend. After that, Josh gets the conversation going about volunteering and whether our generation is more selfish than older ones. Is volunteering for something you want to do selfish?...

This week, the guys go down rabbit hole after rabbit hole. Fortunately, there's some fun conversations to be found in rabbit holes! Josh and Evan talk about their favorite condiments, the most interesting/unique things they've ever put into their mouths, and the unfortunate impacts of capitalism on the environment. Quite the roller coaster. It's all enjoyable though, and you can even get some tips...

This week, the guys get a little existential and start talking about the future (again). Evan is back in Iowa and is NOT loving it. But he's in the home stretch, so that's both exciting and terrifying! Josh talks about a "rule" saying that the first 33 minutes of 100 minutes should be spent trying different options. But, the minutes are years? Or they aren't? We don't know, math is difficult. The...

This week, the guys talk about birthdays! Both Josh and Evan celebrate birthdays this week, so naturally the guys get to talking about birthday stuff. When is the best time of year for a birthday? Does it matter who sends bday wishes? Has anyone important ever forgotten your birthday? All these questions and more get discussed. The guys also talk about gifts, whether every year is "The Lord's" yea...

This week, the guys talk about some of their plans for 2022. Josh has an impactful word to live by, while Evan has some big changes coming in the second half of the year. However, who the heck knows what the heck is gonna happen?! The guys also talk about where in the world they'd want to go if they could. Spoiler alert, it's probably not Iowa... There's also a Fact of the Week and "sticking it to...

This week, the guys continue their annual tradition of talking about the best things they watched, read, and did over the past year. Both Josh and Evan have a lot of movies to talk about and recommend, and the gems discussed have something for everyone. There's also some series to note, some books that Josh liked, and one fun activity that both guys are glad they've gotten into! There's probably a...

This week, the guys talk about butter! More specifically, why is peanut butter named after butter? Evan asks Josh what his least useful body part is, and the belly button seems to be in the running depending who you ask. There's also some sports betting to discuss, some recap on the last episode, and some generally fun conversations to be had. There's probably a "sticking it to the man" and Fact o...

This week, the guys get WRAPPED up in their music and podcast-listening statistics from 2021. Both Josh and Evan spent a lot of time listening to stuff, but they also spent a lots of time talking while YOU, the listener, did the listening! Tune in to hear the Life is Funny podcast's Spotify Wrapped stats that creators get to see. Also, are these numbers good or bad, something to be proud of, or ju...

This week, the guys talk about some of the dumb "problems" of life. Specifically, Evan has some silly examples of money-related issues and annoyances of society. Is there a dollar amount that you can/should put on going to the bar for a couple minutes to talk to a buddy? The guys also touch on topics like the difficulties of Christmas shopping, sports coaches making too much money, fantasy footbal...

This week, the guys talk about sports betting. Josh has dipped his toes into the big-money waters, but he's had limited success. Evan has yet to dive in, but he's pretty confident in his abilities. Listen to the guys talk about something that they barely know enough about to get themselves in a little bit of trouble, just like most of their conversations! Overall, there are lots of laughs and some...

This week, the guys talk about making plans. Sometimes, making plans is the greatest thing ever! Hanging out with friends, family, coworkers, and whomever else can be a blast. BUT, sometimes making plans is a Herculean task that people just don't want to do or can't do for whatever reason. Not making plans isn't a bad thing, and sometimes people just need to take a mental break. Josh and Evan also...

This week, the guys talk about small talk. Communicating with people is weird, and sometimes it's hard to know whether the way communication and relationships go in today's world is good or bad. Talking about sports helps with the small talk, and it helps the guys fill content on the podcast too. The guys also recap a weekend that saw Josh's puppy problems get a little better and Evan get to socia...

This week, Josh has a front-row seat on the struggle bus as he's learning it's tough to be a dad. Josh is pooped after how much his new four-legged child has been peeing, barking, and being a puppy. Evan tries to bring the energy and help lift Josh's spirits, and things are fun despite an extra-sleepy half of the podcast. The guys talk about puppy life, how to live longer, brushing teeth, murder m...

This week, the guys have a lot of catching up to do. After a one-week hiatus that saw both Josh and Evan in different cities for a week, there are quite a few stories to go over. Listen in to hear about Evan's comedically bad day, Josh visiting a plantation, and more. Before the end of the episode, the guys also talk about the global phenomenon that is "Squid Game." Without giving away spoilers (m...

This week, the guys talk about a lot of little things. Evan doesn't understand people who wear glasses, the guys have different movie-watching strategies, Evan made some (debatably) homemade oatmeal, both guys paid utilities, and more. SUPER exciting (though relatable! stuff). Josh also talks about his idea of starting an AirBnB while Evan is skeptical. The guys wrap things up with a fun idea that...

This week, the guys talk about what it's like trying to be a couple of groupies. While they aren't necessarily talking about trying to follow a famous band around on tour, Josh and Evan discuss how people go about joining new groups and finding new activities. The guys have always been part of groups throughout their lives, but they're learning that it's not that easy as adults. Will Josh join a s...

This week, the guys talk about the strength of their streams. Like most people out there, the guys have some serious streaming going on. What Josh and Evan are talking about, of course, is streaming content. They stream movies, shows, sports, podcasts, music, and more, and sometimes it all gets out of hand. Is streaming more expensive than the ol' cable box? Do people even surf the TV for random t...

This week, the guys talk about Josh's experience of going to a fancy YMCA in Detroit. Well, at least that's how Evan is hearing things. The guys talk about navigating some long work schedules, the uniqueness of esports, fantasy football, sharing pictures, recording podcasts, and maybe a little bit more! There's also a really good Fact of the Week and some fun "sticking it to the man" examples/atte...
