Chaos, Gummies, and New Podcast Toys

Mike and Tom kick off another hilarious episode by unveiling their shiny new toy - a Zoom PodTrack P8 mixer that promises to make their ridiculous conversations sound crystal clear. "The stupid shit we say will sound much better," they joke, perfectly capturing the essence of their unfiltered approach to podcasting.
Between sips of cold beer, the duo embarks on another "research" session with Crispy Blunt Minis, setting the perfect tone for their wide-ranging conversation. Their candid political musings feel like eavesdropping on two friends at a bar rather than a scripted discussion, touching on border security policies and media double standards without taking themselves too seriously.
The podcast hits its comedic stride when they share a collection of absurd 911 calls and the dispatchers' brilliant responses. From someone reporting a "suspicious package" (which turns out to be their Amazon delivery) to callers complaining about bad haircuts, these stories showcase the hosts' ability to find humor in everyday absurdity. Their genuine laughter throughout this segment is infectious, pulling listeners into their world of lighthearted banter.
The appearance of recurring characters Pip and Squeak adds another layer of entertainment, with ongoing jokes about Squeak's mysterious encounters with a squirrel and the promise of Troy picking him up by helicopter for the next episode. These running gags create a sense of community for regular listeners while remaining accessible to newcomers.
As they wrap up, Mike and Tom preview their upcoming musical segment on forgotten songs from their youth and remind listeners about their website where voicemails can be left. Their casual sign-off perfectly captures why fans keep coming back – for the unpretentious, genuine connection they've created that feels less like a produced show and more like hanging out with old friends.
