Needless to Say...

Recently, the guys got some criticism saying the show is "losing direction." They heard it's "unfocused," and "way too into discussing meaningless jobs." They even heard that they're "not nearly as interesting as [they] think." To that, the guys responded with an episode that applies laser focus to two primary subjects -- losing control of their fluids and smelling Colin Jost's manhood. If that is...

This was a special one. In just under 80 minutes, the guys covered insect falconry, a kid's first fight, family barbecues, and teenage cultural appropriation. At least that's what Craig, Dave, and Matt told Brad, since he was too wrecked to even remember recording this thing. Who knows? It might just be the best episode they've ever done. --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #...

Let's just cut to the chase: The episode title doesn't make sense. The AI-made episode image doesn't make sense. The continual mention of Brad's wife's (perfectly normal) hand size doesn't make sense. No, Needless to Say has NEVER been about making sense. And, after 339 episodes, it's certainly not going to start now. So, buckle up for another 90 minutes of cancel-worthy comedy. --- #comedypodcast...

It's been a rough few weeks around the NTS offices, so the guys took some well-deserved time off. But they're back in force, to discuss Rolling Stone's take on music, our take on religion, and generic bagged cereal. It's like they never left! The episode name? Well, see if you can figure it out... --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #handstuff www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www...

This is a handy dandy episode -- hand over fist, one of their best. In just a few hours, the gents cover hand size, manual stimulation, more hand stuff, and then some stuff about hands and jobs. Oh sure, they also mention bison, Pamplona, teacher beatings, and tire swings. But yeah, it's mostly hand stuff. And somehow, that's more than enough... -- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkh...

Every now and then the guys of NTS do something completely different. Something way left of center. Something truly unique. Well, this wasn't one of those weeks. But the guys DO cover some new ground. Brad's kid is flipping off teachers. Craig's pre-party condoms are now on store shelves. Matt revels in playoff basketball. And Dave doesn't know how to play "Two Truths and a Lie." Also, jokes about...

Remember that time when NTS listeners said, "HEY! You guys should make an episode that covers little people and conjoined twin marriages?" Well, folks, your long wait is over. There are no other words needed to describe this one.  --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #abbyandbrittany www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com  

This week, the guys recorded a day later than usual, but that was so Brad and Craig could share their adventures from a trip to Boston to see comedian Chad Daniels. Naturally, they encountered overpriced drinks, loud audience members, and one weird Thai restaurant bar. (But they'll always have those cheeseburgers.) Matt and Dave? Well, Dave realized he never wants a dog, and Matt realized he's pre...

It's Episode 333, which means Needless to Say is halfway to hell. And after the first 20 or so minutes of this episode, you'll see why. The guys have always been equal-opportunity offenders, but this might take the prize. Then, just to calm the waters, they decide to let artificial intelligence choose some skull topics, and let appropriating intelligence choose a few more. --- #ricomedy #darkcomed...

After an unplanned week off, the guys reconvened to catch up on the biggest headline of the week, Craig's onstage standup debut. Yeah, they covered a few other topics, like Matt smoking tires, Brad smoking plants, and Dave smoking his plumbing. But Craig never let them veer too far from his amazingly bright spotlight.  -- #ricomedy #standupcomedy #ricomedyconnection #ripodcast #comedypodcast #humo...

This week, the guys are down a man, but they replaced him with a well-trained Yeti. That's right, John is back, helping to take Brad's place for a week. And both of his lines are phenomenal -- trust us. Along the way, they cover their usual array of nonsense about family, farts, fellow coworkers, and much more.  --- #podernfamily #ripodcast #funnypodcast #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #darkhumor #tr...

After two weeks in Ancient Rome, the guys fast-forwarded a few hundred years to talk about gross, juvenile things. For 20 minutes. Right at the beginning of the episode. Before they even had a chance to say hello. Dave turtle-headed this plan and saw it through, all the way to his end. Other things come up, for sure. But with an episode title like this, is it even worth mentioning those topics? Ju...

The guys are back to form this week, finishing their comprehensive discussion of the EPIC "Private Gladiator" series. But, before they get to that, they discuss sick and/or dead pets, weak pant seams, HR best practices, and Craig's ongoing journey to stand-up comedy dominance. --- #privategladiator #foreignerotica #ricomedy #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkcomedy www.needlesstosaypo...

This week, the guys all had stuff to discuss, but all cobblestone roads led right back to ... well ... adult cinema. It turns out Matt likes a little bit of history in his visual biology. And, after 30 minutes debating the issue, the rest of the guys agreed. They also talk about work protocol, rabid raccoons, and Volvo ownership. But make no mistake, this one's all about Roman smut and films with...

After a week off because the guys battled pinkeye, COVID, arthritis, and vaginitis, they reconvened to discuss topics related to the DMV, AAA, and several entities in Washington, DC. They also recap their Sevendust concert, including the merits of introducing children to the metal lifestyle. And yes, you'll get to hear about "Pam." --- #podernfamily #sevendust #staticx #dope #metal #comedypodcast...

The guys enhance their hang this week when their buddy Dakota sits in. Even though he only says 11 words, Dakota definitely brought out the best in the guys, discussing beards, camping, white shoes, and family. Then they play the most disgusting "Would You Rather..." ever recorded. How bad? Let's just say we learn a lot about the guys' views on hygiene.  ---- #funnypodcast #humorpodcast #comedypod...

You know what the NTS guys don't discuss enough? Wrestling. You know what they discuss too much? Dumps. You know when the magic happens? When wrestling and dumps occupy the same headlines. On a day when Vince McMahon was revealed to be the person we always knew he was, the guys got together to discuss Dave's latest bathroom extravaganza, and how it tied into one of the most disgusting headlines of...

Recently, the NTS guys received a review from a listener who described the show as "a great hang." This episode fits that description to the letter. Some nights, these guys get hyper-focused. Other nights, they go where the conversation leads them. It's not easy to go from stories of winter tree work to middle-aged birthdays, to chewing cud, to Jane Seymour. But they do it so effortlessly, it's li...

Praise be, NTS! Lord knows the guys didn't need to do another episode of religious jokes, but that didn't stop them from getting touched by God this week. Matt had his revelation in line to buy milk. Craig continued his journey into Episcopal bliss. Dave saw the light while explaining humping to a six-year-old. And Brad discussed his coworker, which turned into a stroke of genius. Set your speaker...

They took a few weeks off, but the craptastic four are back from the holiday break to waste your mental bandwidth. This time around, we learn about Craig's new church, trashy elves on shelves, celebrity encounters, and another amazing story from the archives of the legendary Uncle Ray. It's like they never left... -- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #cringecomedy #podernfamily...

Another year gone. Another spin around the sun. Another collection of our favorite segments. If you're new to the show, consider this a great starting point. If you're not, it's still a good sampler platter of what we did for the last 52 weeks. Jesus-themed chain restaurants, Dave's murder chairs, computer lab nudes, frat house planned parenthood, and much more -- this was the year that was for Ne...

After Craig's birthday episode -- which you'll hear soon enough -- it was time to dust off a few NTS Christmas traditions. After a recap of the surprise 50th birthday, the guys (and gal) read a second collaborative holiday story and break out the buzzers for another round of NTS Jeopardy. The secret clues for this episode? NyQuil, the Matrix, and Craig's inability to say, "What is...?" -- #comedyp...

This week, Brad took the night off, leaving Matt, Craig, and Dave to fend for themselves. So, after doing three amazing segments before hitting "record" the guys managed to discuss overly observational children, High Karate, Spotify Unwrapped, Deadspin, and much more. A lot of listeners might think Brad wants this episode to suck... and they'd be right. But the guys shut that right down.  -- #high...

It was the day after Thanksgiving, so what were the guys thankful for? Family, friends, peanut butter pie, TikTok designers, colonoscopies, corn digestion, House MD, Munchausen's Syndrome, and ruining Santa Claus for children. Happy holidays, all. --- #thanksgiving2023 #christmas2023 #holidays2023 #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #housemd #podernfamily www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.nt...

This week, the guys give thanks for a lot of things -- Matt's love of Creed's poetry, Dave's college pornography, Brad's nasal entropy, and Craig's looming colonoscopy. It's a love letter to the '90s -- when Brad and Dave were in college, Matt was 10, and Craig was... well... 90.  --- #thanksgivingpodcast #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #holidaypodcast #givethanks #creed #dialupinternet...
