What happens when two Midwestern podcasters venture to opposite corners of the world? A hilarious comparison of travel misadventures that proves no matter how different the destination, suffering makes for great storytelling.

Fresh from their journeys, Eric and Brad reconnect to swap tales of their vastly different trips. Eric's adventure to Phoenix, Arizona to visit his friend Jacko and attend U-Fest (featuring A Day to Remember) seems simple enough until you factor in his 12-year flying hiatus, the desert heat he describes as "the sun being personally mad at all my pores," and an unforgettably creepy Uber driver named "Cool Rich." Meanwhile, Brad's business trip to India involves a 40-hour journey, language barriers that left him stranded at the airport for hours, accommodations comparable to "a jail cell," and a forced pilgrimage to 108 nearly identical temples in 102-degree heat.

Through their parallel stories, unexpected commonalities emerge—the punishing heat, transportation disasters, and the universal feeling of being a fish out of water. The episode peaks with a sidesplitting countdown of the "Top Five Worst Things to Bring Through TSA Security," featuring scenarios so absurd they'll forever change how you view airport security lines.

Beyond the laughs, there's something deeply relatable about these travel tales. Whether navigating foreign languages in Hyderabad or trying to maintain composure in an Arizona Uber while high as a kite, both hosts capture that universal vulnerability of being away from home—and the stories we earn through our discomfort.

Join us for an episode that travels from rock concerts to religious statues, from dispensary visits to diplomatic tensions, all while proving that sometimes the best souvenirs are the stories you'll be telling for years to come.

Ever found yourself locked in a staring contest with a giant raccoon while smoking on your porch? That's exactly what happened to Eric in this laugh-out-loud summer-themed episode. As humidity hangs in the evening air, Eric recounts his unexpected wildlife encounter with a massive raccoon that keeps returning to his smoking spot — leading to speculation about whether the creature might be enjoying a contact high and fantasies about a very unusual friendship involving Doritos and cartoons.

The summer vibes continue as both hosts share their most catastrophic cookout stories. Brad confesses to nearly poisoning all his friends with severely undercooked burgers at a lakehouse party ("I almost killed all my friends and didn't mean to"), while Eric recalls witnessing a company owner destroy perfectly good salmon by operating a smoker so hot the paint peeled off — yet somehow still serving raw food. These cautionary tales serve as hilarious warnings for your upcoming summer gatherings.

The highlight comes when Eric and Brad break down their definitive ranking of the "Worst Things to Bring to a Cookout." From the painfully accurate "acoustic guitar no one knows how to play" to the darkly hilarious "Jeffrey Dahmer with homemade burgers," their list combines everyday annoyances with absurdist humor that will have you nodding in agreement one minute and crying with laughter the next. Other notable mentions include bringing a six-month-old Christmas fruitcake, showing up with an empty propane tank, and arriving with to-go boxes to pack leftovers before you've even participated.

Between summer memories of fishing trips, scientific approaches to backyard fire pits, and upcoming concert plans, this episode captures the essence of summer friendship and the stories that bond us together.
