Nigel and Alvin along side their special guest host Linda, discuss topics that they want to get off their chest and try and convince the others that what they have to say is valid. From the usual marvel, to the becoming usual Spirit Airlines, the group just want to be heard whether you agree or not.

On this episode Nigel tries to convince Alvin that Spirit Airlines isn't has bad as Alvin thinks it is. The fellas talk about a little bit of their irrational fears (butterflies).

Season Finale: Roommate Stories 09.04.2023

Short stories of some wild/funny roommate situations. I know we've all had the one roommate that was either crazy, late on rent, messy, or had no boundaries. How did you deal? Did you say you'd never have another roommate again? I wanna know. In the meantime, listen to these stories.

Rapid Rants: Shameful History 26.02.2023

People in this country will go through hell and high water to defend the worse parts of history that this country has. But the moment truth comes from a different perspective, then and only then does it become a problem. Oh! And don't ever tell black folks how to feel about the history of oppression in this country!

Episode 12: Why as a Man..... 21.01.2023

Me and my good friend Nigel have had enough of the impossible standards that it takes to be a man. Whomever set the difficulty level for men to "Hall of Fame" see me at the front door, #EnoughisEnough!

Episode 11: My Top 5 Favorite Animals 08.01.2023

I love animals, like I will watch a National Geographic about the most random ones!

Episode 10: The Streets Ain't Fun 06.11.2022

It's not fun out there no more in the single life streets! I don't care what y'all say. Women and Men are asking for the damn near impossible!

Episode 9: Disney Hates Parents 08.10.2022

Have y'all ever noticed the big difference between Disney parental figures and Pixar parental figures? Or how Disney parental figures just don't exist?! Listen to my theory on this episode

I guess you wonder where I've been?! Well I'm back and coming at you with more stupid rants! stay tuned!!

"The Lost Episode" 07.07.2022

It's been a while. But I recorded this episode back in May and never released it, and I don't know why. It needed to be released, these things needed to be said. I remember when I started this podcast I wanted to talk about some issues that were controversial. I know I always say I don't like to get political but... oh what the hell, I'm pissed off. Let's rant!!!

Episode 7: The First Villains 02.04.2022

Why is the world like this?! Who is the blame?! Bring them to me!! On this episode we explore the first villains of society, yes the people that are responsible for the reason you pay bills. 

Episode 6: Villains in the Family 19.03.2022

We all have them, but how do we deal with them? What do we say to them when they are acting out and acting like children???

Episode 5: Look Maybe Batman is the Villain 05.03.2022

Okay I didn't mean to rip on Batman like I did this episode but it worked out in the long run. I don't think Bruce Wayne realized that he may have been causing more bad than good. 

Episode 4: Top 5 Movie Villains 19.02.2022

Let's have a little fun with this episode. Listen to my top 5 movie Villains, read that again. MY TOP 5. You an disagree all you want with it. Hit me up if you do. OH! Who was I talking to at the end just now?

Episode 3: Why I think we need BHM 12.02.2022

Let's be honest, black history month is fantastic and very necessary. But there are still people that think we no longer need it, EVEN THOUGH WE STILL HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN!!! On this episode listen to me mindlessly rant about why I think we need BHM!

Episode 2: Lying to Protect 29.01.2022

We've all been there. At the receiving end of a lie that made us look at someone totally differently. But did you ever stop to think that there was a reason for that lie? Sometimes people lie to protect, you can't deny it. But how far is too far? Where's is the line? Is it possible to move on and trust that person again?

Episode 1: pushing oPinions 22.01.2022

Welcome back!!! The first episode of the new season is all about what happens when you give an opinion, and the world doesn't quite like what you said. Guess what.. suck it up! New soundtrack produced by Earl Hondo!!!

Season Finale (Regular): Top 10 Most Toxic Type of People 04.12.2021

It's here y'all! The season 1 finale, and in this episode I am talking about the most toxic type of people I've come across in my life. *Trigger Warning* If you fall into one of these, well maybe you should take a long hard look in the mirror before you come and approach me with any type of conversation.

Episode 14: Men Just Want to Have Fun 20.11.2021

Why is it so wrong that men enjoy playing video games and watching anime or superhero movies? Do we not deserve any happiness outside of a woman's affection?! Or do y'all just want us to be unhappy. They are other things that men aren't "supposed" to do either and we'll be talking about them on this episode!

Episode 13: A Stripper Won't Comfort You After a Break-up 13.11.2021

In this episode I talk about the nonsense we do after a break-up, or at least the nonsense I've experienced after a break up lol. 

Episode 12: Arrest Scooby-Doo and the Gang 06.11.2021

On this episode I dive into old cartoons, my hot take on some of the best ones and why we "shouldn't have been watch them". I'm just playing, y'all can watch whatever you like.
