The Fairview Social Podcast

In this episode, Tim welcomes his sister in law Trinity to the podcast for her first official appearance (after a “vaulted” Christmas recording). Trinity talks about staying in Tennessee since October while she gets ready to head back to Texas — including the stress of locking in an apartment and planning the big road trip move with Mom and Dawn. From there, the conversation turns into classic Fai...

In this final episode of “The Time When Things Got Bad… But Then It Got Better” series, Tim reflects on how mission trips to Haiti changed his worldview, then shifts into the burnout he experienced from being deeply involved in church life. He shares how losing a home in foreclosure reshaped his perspective, how his family rebuilt their lives through renting and later buying again, and how longtim...

In this episode, Tim sits down with Rusty for the final chapter of the Chester Boom series , looking back on the band’s music, live shows, and the reality of chasing success as a working adult. They talk about songwriting (and how most songs share the same building blocks), highlight favorite venues and memories from the Chester Boom days, and reflect on what it was like promoting music before soc...

In the first episode of 2026, Tim and Mike kick off the new year with a wide-ranging, thoughtful conversation about recovery, restlessness, identity, and wanting more out of life. Mike shares how foot surgery has already improved his quality of life, while Tim reflects on burnout, self-inflicted stress, and the difficulty of slowing down after years of grinding. The episode moves between lighthear...

In this laid-back episode, Tim and Daniel catch up over a Saturday-morning podcast, talking through parenting milestones, holiday traditions, and the weird realization that they’re now the adults in the room. They start with lighthearted stories about kids’ basketball games, sleepovers, and Elf on the Shelf — including how children are starting to question whether their parents are just “too lazy”...

This episode begins as a thrown-together recording: Joseph showed up, Nikki was invited last minute, Eric was kidnapped from his house, and Mike (fresh out of surgery) ignores all their calls. From there, the group dives into their usual blend of humor, storytelling, and family honesty. They debate podcast “intro music etiquette,” complain about listeners who complain, and talk about doing a futur...

Episode #51 In this episode, Tim and Joseph settle into one of their most personal and nostalgic conversations yet. They start by discussing their revived tradition of frying turkeys — something their dad used to do — and the logistical comedy of delivering foil-wrapped “fried butterball basketballs” to the whole family. The episode quickly turns into a memory spiral: childhood pets, the infamous...

Episode #50 In this laid-back, funny episode, Tim and Mike open by admitting they lack basic “survival skills” — neither can hunt, gut a deer, or live off the land. That launches a stream of self-deprecating jokes about what they would do if society collapsed: rely on fishing, commentary, or just eating each other. From there, they drift into what becomes the core of the episode: their obsession w...

In this Thanksgiving episode, Tim looks back on the holiday traditions that shaped him. Triggered by the recent passing of his grandfather Gene, he revisits his childhood routines — first Thanksgiving dinner at his grandmother Gran’s tidy home in Donelson, then a chaotic second meal at Unile's house in Antioch, where the air was thick with cigarette smoke, laughter, and arguments about dressi...

Recorded shortly after Gene Hollis’s final arrangements were planned, this episode captures Tim, his brother Joseph, and his wife Katlin trying to process a difficult week with humor and realism. They open with a toast of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked in Gene’s honor, recalling how he was flirting with nurses even on his final day. The trio recounts their uncomfortable — and hilarious — experience...

Tim and his Nikki sit down after an emotional week to process the death of Tim’s grandfather, Gene Hollis. The episode begins with casual hot-tub banter, then shifts into reflections on family loss, care, and closure. They recall Gene’s final hours, his humor until the very end, and the long line of family members they’ve personally watched pass away. The discussion moves toward how the couple sup...

Tim welcomes his son Eli and niece Jenna to The Fairview Social Podcast for their first-ever appearance. What starts with jokes about a can of SpaghettiOs (from a viral TikTok comment) turns into a family catch-up filled with wild stories — like Eli’s 140-mph speeding ticket that landed him briefly in jail, Jenna’s multiple foot surgeries after a car crash, and how both of them keep getting caught...

Tim reunites with his friends Zach and Mike for a relaxed, funny conversation that moves between personal stories, work banter, and creative ideas. They joke about calling Joseph mid-show and fantasize about buying a small plane to fly from Tim's backyard, discuss AI tools used in business proposals, and swap ideas for landscaping, fire pits, and DIY projects. There’s talk about COVID-era mem...

In this episode, Tim hosts Joseph and Eric for a relaxed and often hilarious chat over Woodford Reserve Double Oaked whiskey. The trio kicks off by toasting Gene, a family member now in hospice, and then spiral into jokes about podcast intros, YouTube culture, and “smacking the like button.” Eric shares his success running Goblin Con, a local paranormal convention, and the group reminisces about g...
