Yay, Dude! A Hey Dude Rewatch Podcast

We're off this week to recover from our trip to Portland where we got to hang out IRL!! And this seemed like the perfect time to replay our very first episode, which we recorded together in a hotel room in Portland almost exactly one year ago today. I'm so glad Jess decided to go from her originally planned spot as a one-episode guest host to a full-fledged co-host, and that it has staye...

Jake's not just a little stitous. He's SUPERstitious. The whole ranch is in a tizzy when Brain Busters comes to town, but can trivia master Jake withstand the pressure of all these broken mirrors and spilled salt shakers? Prost, Graham Yost, on another banger episode. Also, for once T gets to teach Jess something interesting!  Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudec...

Melody's friend from home, Amy, shows up at the ranch and is luckily issued a Bar None polo just in time to help out while Brad does triple axles with her horse. But it turns out, old friends aren't the same as ranch friends, and Melody feels like the two have grown apart.  Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.com

He's here! Jake (Jonathan Galkin) makes his debut on the Bar None Ranch, along with his trusty tubs. T and Jess welcome the new kid on the block as well as discuss important topics like ramadas, pump-up shoes, and going to the post office. Plus, we've got some major ideas about what Joe Torres could be up to.  Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.com

It's the episode we've all been dreading. Come and have a cry with us as Ted leaves for summer school. But before he says goodbye, he finally scores a date with Brad. Jess tells us where David Lascher ran off to for a season and a half, and we also speculate on the plot of a Hey Dude reboot. Joe Torres, if you're listening, you'd get top billing! Let's make it happen! Many...

We got a taste of a Tedless episode this week. The teens did a great job, but we were missing that impish little sparkle. Instead, Melody single white females Brad as she tries to get a real jerk of a guy to fall in love with her. Teresa tries out a new segment, which is terrible, but Jess also brings that sweet etymology corral content, so it balances out.  Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast...

We're back with season 3!! Prost, Graham Yost on another solid episode. This one is all about those teens to open the season. Find out what happens when Ted (our time with him is short) is left in charge of the Bar None. It goes perfectly, obviously. No bodies of water or antics of any kind involved! Just joking! Also hear about cool kindergarten activities and what kind of karma comes your w...

You read that right. We'll be back next Wednesday with season 3! If you like this show, make sure to share it with others. And we love those ratings and reviews! So get ready to join us back at the Bar None Ranch every Wednesday for more fun deep dives (deep dives?) into everyone's favorite 90s teen dude ranch sitcom, Hey Dude. In the meantime, stay out of those ding-dang troughs!  Music...

We're still a couple of weeks out from Season 3 of Yay Dude, but enjoy this clip show from our first five episodes in the meantime! We started recording this show almost a year ago, and I wish it could go on forever. As we're nearing the halfway point of Hey Dude, let's take a look back at all the trough incidents, the Joe Torres speculation, the Etymology Corrals, and the silly mem...

Can you believe we've actually watched two whole seasons of this show? What a wild ride. Not as wild as what happens at the Bar None, a supposedly functioning business, when some space guys show up. Nothing a few jingle bells won't solve though. To all the aliens listening to this one in space, you're welcome. Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.co...

Mr. Ernst doesn't feel like a real cowboy, so he's ready to sell the ranch and build a mall in the middle of the desert. Can the teens change his mind? Nope, they can't, and that's the end of Hey Dude. Just kidding! Find out how Teresa learned the word penultimate, as this is the PENULTIMATE of season 2 if you can believe it! Also, if you know anyone with a horse, Jess would li...

What happens when a hot babe dumps her little sister off on Ted to babysit? Well wouldn't ya know it, she goes missing. At least the rest of the ranch is having fun writing postcards and answering questions from threatening boys. Jess takes us to Etymology Corral and we also help Ted name his old lizard.  Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.com

A couple of teens can't keep their cool when THE Bobby Rogers comes to the ranch to learn how to ride a horse. Jess and T discuss celebrity encounters, the hottest shows and movies, and reasons why you shouldn't get back on a horse.   Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.com

What can't Danny do? He can help your corn grow really tall. He can lead you on the best horseback ride of your life. There should be a third thing here, but I guess it's just the two, because things take a turn when his horse gets the sniffles. Other questions arise for Jess and T, like what was your favorite Oliver Sacks-based movie as a kid? And what kind of belt buckle would you like...

Ted's gonna be rich! That is, if he and his pals can follow the clues he found in a giant pile of trash that's in plain sight of the guests. This week we make some humble apologies and posit that Joe Torres is off finding treasure with Nicholas Cage, and we're sure he plans to keep that booty to himself. Also hear from my very favorite and most special guest.  Follow us on social me...

Everyone is in a tizzy when Ted's teacher visits the ranch. I mean, I'm sure there were hundreds of other dude ranches she could have visited on her summer off, but who doesn't want to go to the singular ranch where one of your students works? It's also a great opportunity for Buddy to get a new mom. We're SUPER excited to have a guestpert this week, my friend and educator...

This is a big one, folks! Chances are, this is the episode of Hey Dude you most remember. This week we discuss the slam dunkiest of all slam dunk episodes--prost Graham Yost, again! Find out why Ted is wearing so many jackets and not his ranch-issued sleep apparel. Will Melody stab Ted to death after hunting an apple? Is Cassie going to haunt us from the great beyond? Are you the a-hole who would...

Prost, Graham Yost! We've got another slam dunkerooskie this week! Find out what happens when a mysterious fellow in a safari fedora crash lands at the Bar None.

Things get heated between friends in this one when some big disagreements erupt on the ranch. Or something. Take a trip to Etymology Corral and hear about our biggest pet peeves. Is that a cicada in our pants or did Jess just forget to turn her mic around? Listen and find out! Follow us on social media! @yaydudecast on Instagram yaydudecast@gmail.com

What better draw to the Bar None Ranch than getting to take pictures of a teen's salad because she is maybe going to compete in a regional swim meet in a few weeks? Ted sees dollar signs when a man in black shorts uses his stopwatch to decide that Melody is a future Olympic champion. If only she can stick with Mr. Ernst's intensive training plan, that is. We also get Jaerod's hot ta...

What's the most fun thing you can do with ONE HUNDRED BIG ONES? If you said buy hats or pillows, you're incorrect. Find out what the gang at the Bar None Ranch does when a mysterious guest leaves a big tip for a couple of staffers. We also take a trip to the etymology corral, watch Brad and Melody paint a canoe with washable paint,  and talk about some other stuff too probably.  Follow u...

We're back at the Bar None Ranch! Can you believe that in this one Ted is being a jerk? He and Melody can't keep their ding dang mouths shut and go spouting off Brad's and Danny's most embarrassing secrets.
