I start the episode riding high off a homemade sandwich and the confidence only Martin’s BBQ chips can give a man. From there, I immediately make a series of adult financial decisions I should not be allowed to make. I lock down a signed Jake Paul Pop Century card, talk myself into wearing it as a necklace, and openly admit I need my phone taken away before Facebook Marketplace and TikTok live sales ruin my life. This is what happens when you give someone adult money and internet access.Then we get into the storm. The storm of the century. The storm with a PR team. Winter Storm Fern. According to the internet, Pennsylvania is getting anywhere from one inch to ninety eight inches of snow, trees are exploding in Canada, and grocery stores are out of everything except Dasani. I break down the panic, the fake urgency, and the group hysteria while delivering the only six winter survival tips you will ever need. These tips are foolproof, medically questionable, and absolutely not approved by anyone with credentials.From there, we spiral into Soulja Boy’s fashion empire, influencer politicians, and the idea of Farrah Abraham becoming the mayor of Texas. I question who is buying Soulja Boy shoes with his face on them, wonder how much money it would take to ruin my public reputation with a full outfit, and seriously consider a future where podcasts replace government. None of this feels fake anymore and that part is concerning.I wrap things up with a rapid fire run through Mission Impossible logic, why the mission is always possible, why the bad guy is usually HR, and why face masks solve every problem. I also shout out the return of Recap and Record with Los, where we are breaking down HBO’s The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms every week. New episodes. New chaos. Same energy.Hit play. Hit subscribe. Post your snow pictures.Episode 220 is live.

Season 6 is here. New year, new me, new pod. Let me be clear. Nothing changed. Same chaos. Same button. Same “what are we doing?” energy. Appreciate the 2,249-ish of you who keep showing up. If you haven’t yet, hit subscribe, hit like, and ring the bell so you get the quack ding whenever I drop an episode, clip, short, or whatever we’re calling content in 2026.We kick off Episode 219 with the New Year’s trip recap. Megs and I dipped out to Myrtle Beach for the reset. Quick flight. Good food. All you can eat crab legs. Then I get into my favorite Myrtle Beach activity, Dirty Don’s oyster shooter flights. Old Bay rim, oyster in hand, vodka in the glass, chew three times, no more, then send it. If you’re ever down there, go do it. Tell them Levi sent you. Let Dirty Don know Daddy brought you.Then we talk about Elon Musk’s Grok and the internet doing what the internet does. People are using Grok like a public “edit button” on other people’s photos. “Uncrop this.” “Remove this.” “Put her in this.” You get the idea. I tested it privately with Megs and with myself, for research, and the results were way too realistic. Which leads to the real conversation. AI has legit business value, I use it daily, but the moment it turns into public, weaponized creep behavior, the arguments against it start sounding strong.After that, we hit the student loan mess. Wage garnishment is back on the table, and millions of people are in default. I break down what this looks like in real life. People choose rent, groceries, and basic survival over sending hundreds of dollars a month to a loan from when their frontal lobe was still loading. I go on a full spiral about how the system pushes people into “pay it off if you’re the 1%” or “join the military” as the only way out, and how insane it is to treat lifelong debt like a normal rite of passage.Then we get into the Venezuela situation and the “we’re running your country now” energy. I talk through the oil angle, the absurd press conference quotes, the action movie vibes, and the fact that we’re living in a timeline where the mission gets described like a film trailer. I also connect it to the Fire Fest universe, because of course I do. If you thought we were done weaponizing bad ideas, welcome to 2026.I pivot into something practical for local business owners. Going live is the cheat code. I talk about real examples like Amici’s Pizza and Connor’s hot dog cart pulling insane local traction by streaming consistently. If you run a storefront business and you need people to walk in and hand you money, stop treating your phone like the enemy. Put it on a tripod, throw on a mic, go live during your hours, talk to the chat between customers, and build local momentum. Then I give my favorite pro tip. Block people you know. Your audience isn’t your high school class.We wrap with two more heavy hitters. Trisha Paytas saying she wants to run for Congress, and me realizing that if that’s the bar, I might have a shot too. Then we close on the Pennsylvania grave robbery story that had everyone texting me. A guy allegedly stole over 100 sets of human remains and had them in his basement and storage unit. Skulls, bones, torsos, the whole nightmare. I break down the details, the local connections, the alleged selling angle, and how posting evidence on social media is the dumbest crime strategy imaginable.Season 6 is underway. It’s already unhinged. More episodes, more podcasts, more studio builds, more chaos.Watch the episode. Then go to wawdpod.com to catch the latest uploads and the newest Season 6 drops.

Episode 218 finds me recording the podcast home alone the day after Christmas because Megs is stuck on Long Island thanks to an ice storm, which leaves me, my dog, four vodka shots, and a microphone to unpack everything wrong with adulthood, holidays, politics, the internet, and money. I talk about why I am officially done opening gifts forever, why grown adults do not need Funko Pops or graphic tees, and why the only acceptable Christmas loopholes involve cash or household gifts Megs opens for both of us. I explain how family gatherings improve dramatically when you time edibles correctly, how the stress drops, the noise fades, and life feels manageable again. From there I break down Nicki Minaj taking a massive paycheck to headline Turning Point USA, flipping on years of public positions, praising politicians her audience opposes, ignoring the fact she cannot vote, and why the entire event felt calculated, uncomfortable, and hollow. I react to Joe Budden’s response, the internet fallout, and why this move damaged trust across culture and fandom. I then roast the AI Christmas photo trend, the sparkly romper epidemic, bad prompts, lazy re-renders, and why most people do not resemble their AI alter ego despite pretending otherwise. I shut down the viral environmental panic posts about AI destroying the planet, explain why the water usage claims are misleading, and point out industries quietly doing far more damage while everyone yells at computers. I close by breaking down Logan Paul’s Liquid Marketplace mess, the fractional ownership of the PSA 10 Pikachu Illustrator card, how money flowed in, payouts never landed, accountability disappeared, and why this situation looks like CryptoZoo with better branding and the same outcome. This episode is a full post-Christmas spiral covering family, money, internet delusion, celebrity hypocrisy, and why none of this should surprise anyone anymore.**********Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

UNDER THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS - OUT NOW: https://wawdpod.com/lights-spotifyhttps://wawdpod.com/lights-apple-----Episode 217 is here. I start this one the only responsible way. By unboxing a Sheetz package and trying on six or seven different Sheetz shirts like I am getting paid in MTO coupons. I asked for “one of each,” and Sheetz said, “Bet. Hold my street taco.” So now I own enough shirts to dress an entire grand opening line in Camp Hill.We also need to talk about the Camp Hill Sheetz grand opening chaos. Fifty to a hundred people outside. Cars wrapped around the block. Ribbon cut. Holiday vibes. My next ask is simple. Put me on the schedule as the DJ for these openings. One day. One location. I bring the energy. I bring the bits. I wear an unreasonable amount of Sheetz merch and act like a functioning adult.Then we hit the news spiral. TGI Fridays went viral because a server walked a toddler around the restaurant, and corporate rewarded her with a $500 check after flying people out to do a filmed presentation. So of course the internet did the real bonus and a GoFundMe started cooking. After that, I pitch the only gift idea men want. A Godzilla costume and a cardboard city to destroy. Also, if you want the ultimate holiday hack, give your boss a Christmas card. You want to keep your job, go write “thanks for paying me” on a $3 card and live another day.We finish strong with media and politics chaos. Netflix is still trying to collect podcasts like Infinity Stones. Melania has a movie trailer and a production company, because why not. Trump announces big moves, including marijuana rescheduling talk, and then drops the Patriot Games, aka Hunger Games: Home Edition. It’s a lot. So yes, I close the episode the same way I opened it. Confused. Laughing. Wearing a Sheetz shirt.Also, stream my Christmas song “Under the Christmas Lights” right now. Put it on repeat. You know what to do.**********Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

ALL NEW CHRISTMAS SONG OUT NOW!!!SPOTIFY:https://wawdpod.com/lights-spotifyAPPLE MUSIC:https://wawdpod.com/lights-appleYOUTUBE MUSIC: https://wawdpod.com/lights-yt--Episode 216 is here. I am back. Holiday chaos is fading and the volume is up. Thirteen days until Christmas and somehow Alex Jones from 2017 sounds like he saw the group chat early. AI, hive minds, Epstein, tech elites. I play the clip. I react. I ask the only question that matters. What are we doing?Then I pivot. Hard. This turns into a full 2026 lock in speech. No fluff. No excuses. Post every day. Sell the junk. Cut the noise. Block the distractions. Break the habits that failed you. If this year was a mess, flip it. If this year was fine, push harder. Blinders on. Build something. Feed your family. Keep moving.After that, the news spiral hits. Netflix drops an $83 billion move on Warner Brothers. Paramount fires back with $108 billion. Breakup fees. HBO futures. Game of Thrones season nine bait. Streaming price hikes. Movie theaters on life support. Golden Globes add podcasts and somehow I get nominated before Joe Rogan. Jelly Roll cries on Rogan. Billy McFarland runs Phoenix Festival on an island with no power. Candace Owens and Erica Kirk go to war. Trump launches a gold card for rich people. Cruises keep proving my point. Then I end the show with my new Christmas song.Topics I hit. • Alex Jones predicting AI years early. • Why 2026 needs discipline and output. • Netflix vs Warner Brothers vs Paramount. • Streaming killing theaters. • Golden Globes podcast drama. • Joe Rogan and Jelly Roll moment. • Billy McFarland and Phoenix Festival chaos. • Candace Owens vs Turning Point fallout. • Trump gold and platinum cards. • Why cruises are a hard no. • My new holiday single.My 2025 Christmas song “Under the Christmas Lights” is out now on every platform. Stream it. Share it. Play it loud. Merry Christmas. What are we doing?

This week on the What Are We Doing podcast, I hit record after missing a week and walk straight into chaos. Holidays, weddings, jet setting, whatever. We made it. Episode 215 is here whether the world is ready or not. I start the show by giving thanks to the only man who deserves it, Joe Exotic, and hoping he gets that presidential pardon he keeps talking about. After that, the madness ramps up fast.Soulja Boy is back with another tech empire that exists only in his mind. He is now saying someone offered him one hundred million for a handheld emulator that screams AliExpress from a mile away. He also says it has sixty four gigs of RAM. It does not. I break it all down and explain why Soulja Boy, if you are reading this, call me. We would print money together.Then we look at the White House’s new marketing strategy where they steal Sabrina Carpenter songs to soundtrack ICE raid videos. Sabrina responds. The White House responds. Everyone loses. I offer the White House an easy solution. Use this podcast instead. Leave the pop stars alone. What are we doing.Next up, Epstein news. More photos. More videos. More questions. His island looks worse than my resort in Cabo. There is a dental chair. I pitch the idea of installing a dentistry at my actual resort. It makes more sense than whatever Epstein was doing.Kate Beckinsale shows up on Jimmy Kimmel with a story about her daughter’s boyfriend laying eggs. Jimmy eats it up. I try to figure out if this is proof Hollywood has fully melted or if Kate got bamboozled by the easiest prank in world history.We talk about raccoons breaking into liquor stores, getting blackout drunk, and passing out in the bathroom. I also explain that humans are accidentally domesticating raccoons because we keep telling them they are cute. At this rate, my wife is going to smuggle one home from Mexico.Then Miley Cyrus gets engaged to a drummer named Max. I salute her. I also salute her best era, the 23 era. Say what you want. That look was elite.Joe Rogan enters the chat. He is sponsored by Perplexity now. He cannot go a single conversation without Jamie or AI saving him from Facebook misinformation. He also says Jesus might return as AI. So I use ChatGPT to generate a whole sermon and explain why pastors might want to polish their resumes.Finally, we hit the gambling problem taking over America. Kaushi.com lets you bet on anything. You can bet on the second coming of Jesus. You can bet on weather. You can bet on elections. CNN is now partnered with them. This is where we are. We are turning news into a casino and calling it progress.This episode is packed. Soulja Boy tech. Sabrina Carpenter vs the White House. Epstein’s low budget island. Celebrities laying eggs. Drunk raccoons. Joe Rogan predicting robot Jesus. CNN turning into DraftKings. It is all here.Hit subscribe. Hit like. Hit the hype button if you find it. New Tone Tailors podcast is live.

I think I am building the greatest cardboard empire in Central Pennsylvania. What are we doing?I also break down my new beef with Sheets. Everyone online is getting purple limited edition shirts.

In this special episode of the What Are We Doing Podcast, I break down one of the most unsettling stories to come out of Lancaster County in years. The name Field of Screams is known across Pennsylvania as a Halloween staple, but a recent Spotlight PA investigation exposed a much darker story behind the haunted hayrides and fake blood. What was once considered a seasonal thrill ride is now at the center of serious allegations involving years of misconduct, ignored complaints, and failures in leadership that left teenage volunteers unprotected.According to multiple reports and interviews, more than a dozen current and former volunteers described a pattern of harassment, inappropriate contact, and manipulation by adult staff and supervisors dating as far back as 2006. One of the key voices in the investigation, Danica Gabrielson, shared her experience working under then-manager Mike King, who she says crossed boundaries while she was still a minor. She describes how attention and trust turned into control and abuse of power. Other volunteers claim they went to the owners, Jim and Gene Schopf, only to see the same people remain in charge, season after season.The story doesn’t stop there. A follow-up investigation revealed that Christopher Roarball, a man previously convicted of indecent exposure, was allowed to volunteer alongside minors between 2022 and 2024. The company claimed their background checks didn’t flag his conviction because they only searched the past seven years, even though Pennsylvania law allows checks to go further. Legal experts have already said that’s not a valid excuse, and former volunteers say this proves how little oversight exists behind the scenes at the attraction. While Field of Screams continues to deny wrongdoing, insisting no criminal allegations have been filed, the evidence and firsthand accounts tell a very different story.In this episode, I go through the full timeline, the official responses, and the ongoing concerns about how these attractions are managed. The goal isn’t to sensationalize a tragedy or stir outrage, but to ask why so many people knew and did nothing. The Field of Screams brand has always been about fear for fun—but the reality here is much worse. This Halloween, before you buy a ticket or step onto that hayride, ask yourself who you’re supporting. Because the scariest part of Field of Screams isn’t inside the haunted house. It’s what’s been happening outside of it for years.**********Original SpotlightPA Article: https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2025/06/field-of-screams-harassment-teenagers-volunteers/Haunted Attraction Let Convicted Offender Volunteer with Minors:https://lancasteronline.com/news/local/popular-pa-haunted-attraction-allowed-man-convicted-of-exposing-himself-to-children-to-volunteer-alongside/article_f7650ab3-969a-442f-b5c6-9bc20aede1d1.htmlUpper Leacock Fire Chief resigns:https://lancasteronline.com/news/local/upper-leacock-fire-chief-resigns-replacement-unclear/article_d1823938-ee06-11ee-b360-6790dab51d12.html**********Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

It’s Halloween, and I’ve officially hit rock bottom—dressed head to toe as a Chili’s mozzarella stick. Nobody, and I mean nobody, wanted to complete the costume with me. My wife said no. My dog ran away. So here I am, half a mozzarella stick, full of regret, wearing my Radical Rita shirt, still begging Chili’s to acknowledge my existence. What are we doing?This week’s episode kicks off inside the “Chili’s Mozzarella Stick Studios” where I give a full breakdown of spooky stories that somehow got real. First up, Ghost Adventures star Aaron Goodwin finds out mid-episode that his wife was arrested for hiring a hitman to kill him. That’s right—she literally tried to turn him into one of the ghosts he’s been chasing for 46 seasons. From ghost hunting to murder-for-hire, this story has everything. Netflix true crime, prison pen pals, and a reminder to maybe double-check your spouse’s DMs.Then, we head down to Mississippi where the chaos continues. A tractor trailer overturned on I-59, releasing a pack of lab monkeys across the highway. Yes, real monkeys. The kind that make you question whether the apocalypse already started and nobody told us. Officials say they aren’t infected with anything, but if you see one in your backyard—maybe don’t try to pet it. Meanwhile, in Texas, a Spirit Halloween shopper lost control of their pet monkey inside the store. It’s diapered, it’s swinging from the rafters, it’s dodging animatronics. Folks, leave your monkeys at home.But it wouldn’t be a true Halloween episode without a trip into the darkness of global corruption. Over in the UK, Prince Andrew has officially been stripped of his royal titles after his Epstein connections resurfaced. He’s no longer a prince, no longer royal, and now going by “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.” Imagine being demoted so hard you lose your last name. Buckingham Palace called it “necessary.” Translation: “You embarrassed us on an international level.” What are we doing?And while the world burns, our own government’s been shut down for a month. SNAP benefits are about to expire. Forty-two million Americans could lose access to food because politicians would rather argue about who gets credit than actually fix the problem. Banks are running dry, liquidity is disappearing, and nobody’s doing their job. Welcome to America, the scariest haunted house of them all.To wrap it up, we talk about Neo, the $20,000 humanoid robot from 1X that supposedly makes your life easier. Except it doesn’t. It can barely open a fridge. The company says it’s AI-powered, but the demo reveals a guy in another room wearing a VR headset controlling it manually. We’re buying expensive robots that can’t even fetch water. What are we doing?It’s chaos from top to bottom—haunted marriages, royal meltdowns, escaped monkeys, government breakdowns, and robots pretending to be smart. Happy Halloween, folks. Stay safe, tip your servers, and for the love of mozzarella sticks, hit that subscribe button before the Chili’s PR team ghosts me too.

This week marks episode 211 of the What Are We Doing Podcast, and I’ve officially hit the “too busy to breathe” point. I’m on a 12-day nonstop run of weddings, events, podcasts, and marketing chaos, all while trying to remember to eat something other than leftover mac and cheese. October? No days off. What are we doing?This episode kicks off with a PSA to brides, grooms, and anyone who plans to serve food to a crowd: hire Mission Barbecue. Forget the “mom-and-pop” caterers who promise love in every bite but deliver cold broccoli and chaos. Forget the fancy chefs who run out of oven space. You want food that tastes good, shows up on time, and doesn’t need a miracle to stay warm? Mission Barbecue. That’s it. End of debate.Then I move into the part of the weekend where my friend Kaisa got married. I DJ’d the wedding as my gift, and in return, her husband Paul gifted me a 1999 graded 8.5 holographic Gengar Pokémon card. We looked it up. Thirty thousand dollars. Thirty thousand. I cried in my car. You try keeping a straight face when someone hands you a $30k ghost Pokémon as a thank-you. What are we doing?After that came a trunk-or-treat event for local preschools, hundreds of kids, and a K-Pop Demon Hunter dance party. Because apparently, I don’t know how to say no to anything in October.But before we can even think about Halloween, it’s time for the annual Thanksgiving Meal Olympics. Aldi, Walmart, Costco, Giant, and Honey Baked Ham are all fighting for your turkey money. Aldi wants $40 to feed ten people. Costco says $199 for eight. Walmart undercuts them all with $38, but you have to cook everything yourself. Giant’s claiming $20 but only if you’ve spent $400 already. And then there’s Honey Baked Ham, where you pay for peace, quality, and not having to bake anything. Two minutes in the oven. Done. Best ham or turkey of your life. What are we doing?From there, we head straight into politics. Donald Trump has pardoned Binance CEO CZ after a $4 billion fraud settlement—right after CZ’s company invested $2 billion in Trump’s family crypto business, “World Liberty Financial.” Totally a coincidence, right? The man literally said money laundering isn’t a crime. Then he tore down the East Wing of the White House to build a $350 million ballroom. Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, and half the Fortune 500 are helping pay for it. And when people asked about the construction, the White House released a slideshow including Clinton’s scandal, Obama’s “terrorist visitors,” and Hunter Biden’s cocaine bag as part of “historical context.” What are we doing?And if that circus wasn’t enough, the New York City mayoral debate turned into an SNL sketch. Candidates argued over parades. One said all parades matter. Another said he’s too busy to attend. Someone asked if they’d create new parades. A third guy looked like he was being held hostage. Absolute chaos.We wrap the episode with the $20 million diamond heist at the Louvre. Some say it’s real. Others think it’s PR for “Now You See Me 3.” Either way, it’s proof that someone in Paris didn’t spring for $30 Wi-Fi cameras. If they want those diamonds back, they better call Nicolas Cage. What are we doing?Episode 211 is pure madness from start to finish: bad caterers, rare Pokémon, Trump’s crypto pardons, Thanksgiving hacks, a mayoral debate about parades, and a diamond heist conspiracy.So before you go—hit the like button.

We start with McDonald’s Monopoly, the one national event that manages to unite the country every fall. My son’s eating nuggets like they’re gold coins, I’m entering codes like a madman, and somehow the “major prizes” are already gone a week in. Somebody’s winning RVs, TVs, and million-dollar prizes while I’m sitting here collecting free hash browns and McChickens. But hey, at least there’s a secret way to play for free that McDonald’s doesn’t want you to know about.Then we move into the lawsuit of the week: Smucker’s vs. Trader Joe’s. Yep. Smucker’s is suing Trader Joe’s over Uncrustables. They say the “crustless peanut butter and jelly sandwich” design was stolen. We’re at the point in America where billion-dollar corporations are beefing over who owns the circle sandwich. You can’t make this up.Next up, the government shutdown. We’re weeks deep and no one cares. Nobody’s getting paid, food banks are feeding federal workers, and the TSA is either missing or working for free. I say keep it shut down. If we hit 60 days, turn the White House into a Spirit Halloween.But that’s not all. Donald Trump somehow found the time to:• Broker “peace” in the Middle East.• Send $20 billion to bail out Argentina’s collapsing economy.• Announce he’s building his own Arc de Trump because why not?Meanwhile, the rest of the country is drowning in family diners and new Sheetz gas stations. Every failed business in central Pennsylvania turns into a breakfast spot. Friendly’s? Now a diner. Hookah bar? Diner. Chinese restaurant? Diner. We have so many diners the eggs are forming a union.We wrap up with OpenAI’s new partnership with Walmart (the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard) and their latest feature that finally gives men what they’ve always wanted: intimacy mode. Yep, ChatGPT’s getting spicy. For twenty bucks a month you get a girlfriend who listens, compliments you, and doesn’t ask where you were last night.This episode is chaos from top to bottom—Monopoly scams, sandwich wars, government meltdowns, Trump buying Argentina, and AI turning romantic.Welcome to America, folks. What are we doing?Watch the full episode now, hit Like, Subscribe, and ring the bell so you don’t miss next week’s meltdown.

Episode 209 of the What Are We Doing Podcast is pure chaos wrapped in brilliance. I’m talking glittery margaritas, fake grilled steak nuggets, Taylor Swift lies, and Post Malone losing control of Broadway—all in one episode.This week kicks off with me breaking down the $20 “Gold Dust Rita” from Dave & Buster’s. It’s a drink that costs more than a bottle of Tito’s and comes with a literal glitter bomb. I explain why it’s not just overpriced—it’s a metaphor for your money dissolving in front of your eyes. Then we dive into Arby’s latest experiment: Steak Nuggets. Yeah, you heard me. Steak. Nuggets. I go over how Arby’s is now pretending to “grill” meat in a building that doesn’t even have a grill and why their new TikTok heroes, “The Arby’s Boys,” might be the best thing on the internet right now.Then, I reveal how Sheetz officially slid into my DMs after I called their chili cheese dogs the best in the game. They offered me another free shirt, but I’m shooting higher. I want the Sheetz Halloween costume. I offer to wear it for weeks if they send one. I’m one DM away from being the face of Sheetz Nation.We also talk about Taylor Swift’s Life of a Showgirl release week. She broke Adele’s record, but I break down how the interviews have turned into one long Travis Kelce fan club meeting. Fallon finally asked her why she turned down the Super Bowl, and her answer? “I’m in love with a guy who plays football.” Sure, Tay. That’s strike one.Then there’s Post Malone, who finally remembered he owns a bar in Nashville and decided to throw a surprise concert and pay everyone’s tab. Naturally, 400,000 people showed up. It was less “grand opening” and more “mini-Coachella with free beer.”Finally, we wrap up with the trailer for HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, the new Game of Thrones prequel. I break down why it looks awesome but also kind of pointless, because we already know none of the main characters can die. It’s like watching Star Wars prequels—you already know the ending.And because this is the What Are We Doing podcast, we end with Donald Trump claiming he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for “ending the conflict in Gaza.” Spoiler alert: he didn’t win.This episode has everything—drunk parking lot hacks, fast-food conspiracies, celebrity nonsense, and international comedy politics.Watch, laugh, and for the love of God, hit the Hype button on YouTube.

Episode 208 of the What Are We Doing podcast is pure chaos in the best way. I kicked things off, reminding everyone that yes, it’s October. I said it about 47 times because apparently, I can’t believe calendars exist. Then I dove right into the big releases of the week: Soulja Boy dropping his third album of 2025, Swag 7, and Taylor Swift’s new album The Life of a Showgirl. I gave both their flowers, but let’s be real, Taylor hijacked the whole cultural moment. From her track Wood (we all know who that’s about) to the Jonas Brothers and Jackson 5 “inspirations,” Swifties are eating while Soulja Boy’s somewhere trying to sell us crank dat NFTs.Then we hit the halftime show drama. Everyone thought Taylor was locked for the Super Bowl. She teased it, the NFL hinted at it, and we all gaslit ourselves into believing she was confirmed. Turns out, it’s Bad Bunny. And I’m here for it. The boomers are going to lose their minds when they realize the biggest artist in the world only sings in Spanish. This is the Super Bowl, not a Lynyrd Skynyrd reunion. Sit down, dad.After that, I took aim at Tai Lopez. Remember the guy in his garage with the Lamborghini and the books? Yeah, he’s being dragged by the SEC for running a $112 million Ponzi scheme. Turns out “Here in my garage” was code for “Here in my court hearing.” If you invested in RadioShack crypto, that’s on you, babes.We also talked about my son’s new obsession with AI-generated YouTube slop. He’s six years old, and instead of watching Paw Patrol, he’s glued to a video about a capybara setting off a fire alarm and then saving the company. Parents, stop gatekeeping iPads. Give your kids the tech. They’re already building Google Doc chatrooms in school. You can’t fight it.Then we checked in on Lil Wayne, who may or may not be releasing another rock album if this unreleased track is any indication. Spoiler: it’s bad. Maybe it’s time Weezy hangs up the guitar. Or maybe Los from 280 Plus can convince me otherwise.And finally, the cherry on top: I got the best YouTube comment of the year. Shout out to Joshua Bradshaw for telling me to nap in traffic. Your hate fuels this machine, my friend.This episode is stacked with Swifties, Soulja Boy, scammers, Super Bowl conspiracies, Bad Bunny truth bombs, AI capybaras, and Lil Wayne midlife crises. You already know what to do. Hit like, hit subscribe, leave a comment, then go get your kid an iPad before they fall behind on learning what sigma means.

Episode 207 of the What are We Doing Podcast is here and it’s a loaded one. Iron Hill Brewery shut down every single location overnight, blindsiding customers, employees, and anyone left holding a gift card. One of the East Coast’s staple brewpubs is gone, and I share my own run-ins with Iron Hill and why it feels like every shuttered restaurant around here eventually turns into a family diner serving $12 pancakes.From there, we jump into Trump’s latest attempt at medical science. The president stood on stage with Dr. Oz and RFK Jr. and told the country that pregnant women taking Tylenol are the cause of autism. Zero evidence. No studies. Nothing but bad improv and mispronounced words. Tylenol’s maker, doctors, and decades of research all came back swinging, but the fact that this nonsense even made it into an official announcement is wild.And then TikTok. After years of deadlines and extensions, Trump signed the order to “save TikTok” by letting Oracle and a group of American investors lease the algorithm from ByteDance for $14 billion. On paper it keeps TikTok alive in the US, but let’s be honest — how long before the algorithm turns into Facebook’s endless stream of ads, political fluff, and AI sludge? I break down why this might be the beginning of the end for TikTok as we know it.On top of that, the Department of Homeland Security is busy making Pokémon-themed ICE raid videos, Jimmy Kimmel somehow turned his suspension into the biggest ratings jump of his career, Jimmy Fallon is quietly stacking his defenses with Taylor Swift appearances and spin-off shows, Meta’s new AI glasses can’t even walk you through a brownie recipe, and it’s officially Fat Bear Week. I’ve got money on Bear 909 and if he loses, I’m done.This is the What are We Doing Podcast. Episode 207 is chaos from start to finish, and that’s exactly how we like it.
