The Mostly Occasionally Show

I'm sure y'all remember Scott Rogowsky, the iconic “Quiz Daddy” from the HQ Trivia phenomenon back in 2017-2018. Turns out, he’s also a massive Phish fan, just like me. After Phish's 2025 spring tour on the West Coast, Scott penned an incredibly thoughtful and introspective essay on his Substack about his personal journey with the band. It really stuck out to me because it goes way...

G-Eazy's new album, "Helium," just dropped—his first in four years and easily his most personal yet. Remember peak G-Eazy? A decade ago, he soundtracked your messiest breakups, late-night Uber rides, and Sunday Scaries brunches. Now at 35, after a whirlwind of fame, loss, and reinvention, the Bay Area rapper is diving deep and opening up. On today's Mostly Occasionally, G-Eazy...

This week on Mostly Occasionally , I catch up with wildlife biologist, TV host, and certified madman Forrest Galante.  You might know Forrest Galante from his many Discovery Channel and Animal Planet shows, starting with Naked and Afraid back in 2013, where people survive in the jungle with no clothes. Since then, he’s built a career chasing lost species, hosting Extinct or Alive , and turning the...

I caught up with action icon Dolph Lundgren to talk about his new vodka brand Hard Cut —how it started, why it’s stronger and smoother than most, and why it feels a little bit James Bond with a splash of Rat Pack. We also get into the legacy of Ivan Drago, his real-life battle with cancer, and what it’s like to parachute off the Eiffel Tower during a Bond shoot in the pre-VFX era. Dolph was though...

Beer and the Grateful Dead—two of my favorite things, and today’s episode is a dream. I’m joined by Sam Calagione, founder of Dogfish Head Craft Brewing , and David Lemieux, longtime Grateful Dead Archivist & Historian, to talk about their epic new collab: Dogfish Head Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale. With 2025 marking the Grateful Dead’s 60th anniversary, Dogfish Head is celebrating with a natio...

Frankie Muniz is the legendary star of Malcolm in the Middle and Agent Cody Banks. He’s also a full-fledged NASCAR driver in the NASCAR Truck Series living out his ultimate dream. In this episode of Mostly Occasionally, BroBible’s Brandon Wenerd sits down with Frankie to talk about his lifelong passion for racing, the insane hot lap they shared at the Las Vegas F1 track in a Ford Mustang Darkhorse...

I’m so excited to welcome my pal, food-TV legend Adam Richman (of Man vs. Food fame), to The Mostly Occasionally Show. We had a fun, wide-ranging chat about food, pop culture, and Pennsylvania’s massive impact on American snack food. As someone who grew up in Central Pennsylvania’s snack-food belt eating UTZ, Nibbles with Gibbles, and Middleswarth Potato Chips, this was such a treat. Crazy enough,...

Ever catch a Phish or Grateful Dead song sneaking into the bumper music during an NFL or college football game on Fox Sports? That's the TV magic of Jake Jolly—Los Angeles-based Fox Sports broadcast producer and jam band aficionado. Full name Jake Jolivette, he’s the mastermind behind blending Widespread Panic, The Disco Biscuits, Moe, and other jam band staples into Fox Sport's music pa...

I drove out to Vegas last week for the second annual Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, and let me tell you—it completely rocked. Watching Max Verstappen lock in his fourth championship on the neon-lit streets of Sin City? Pure F1 spectacle. This is a jam-packed episode of the Mostly Occasionally Show , recapping the weekend in my own peculiar way. The racing was incredible, but as with all these eve...

The theme of this episode is finding balance.  When you live an intentional, high-octane life juggling career demands, it’s essential to recalibrate before the burnout sets in. It’s not just a nice-to-have—it’s a necessity for your mental and physical health. Because no matter how fun your job or life may seem, too much of a good thing can still wipe you out. I know that feeling all too well. For...

I’m excited to introduce you to Brett Haman, one of the newest members of our team at BroBible. Brett is BroBible's social media manager, with over 2.2 million followers on his personal bhamtheman TikTok account.   In this episode, he explains how he got millions of TikTok followers doing "a bunch of stupid stuff." Over the past year, Brett has totally transformed our social media s...

I’m pumped to bring you a conversation with one of baseball's most unforgettable figures—Randy Johnson. For those of us who grew up in the ’80s and ’90s, he’s The Big Unit , the 6'10" powerhouse who ruled the mound for 22 seasons. How can you forget that towering presence dominating for the Expos, Mariners, Astros, D-backs, Yankees, and Giants? These days, Randy’s channeling that le...

On this episode of The Mostly Occasionally Show , I sit down with 90-year-old Pat Boone, a legend whose career shaped the landscape of music and pop culture. With nearly 50 million records sold, 38 Top 40 hits, and friendships with icons like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan, Pat’s stories span decades of cultural history.  We talk about his early days with Elvis, the controversy around his covers of L...

Jason Fitz has lived between two worlds—first as a child prodigy violinist, then as a football analyst. He’s a Juilliard-trained musician who played Carnegie Hall at just 10 years old. After dominating the music scene as the fiddle player and musical director for The Band Perry (remember their smash hit “If I Die Young”?) and playing on records that sold over 40 million units for artists like Tim...

Zedd is back, and this time, he's on a mission to find his Telos . It’s a fancy ancient Greek word for your life's aim or ultimate purpose. The Stoics believed that discovering one’s Telos was the key to living a fulfilled and virtuous life—a philosophy that Zedd seems to embrace as he channels this ancient wisdom into his music. Nearly a decade after his last album, the Grammy-winning p...

Twenty years ago, a little show about four guys navigating the highs and lows of Hollywood hit TV screens and changed the game forever. Entourage wasn't just a TV show; it was a cultural phenomenon, a love letter to friendship, ambition, and the often absurd world of showbiz. If you're of a certain age, like me, I'm sure you'll never forget the classic HBO noise (officially cal...
