• Ep. 53 - We're taking it back to George W. - NOT that ONE, George Washington!
    Nov 28 2024

    Fourscore and who-knows years ago, we had an election this year. Father/Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koegler (who almost always have the dirty side down) are figuring it all out on this episode.

    Right before Steve puts his phone on airplane mode (finally), the discussion slithers into Trump territory. The recent election results are announced with a resounding red wave that handed Mr. Trump full control of the government, setting the stage for some bold moves.

    Opinions fly high as the conversation dissects the Democratic Party's failures and Trump's peculiar cabinet picks. There's even mention of Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's controversial commission. We wrap up with some humorous skepticism about the ambitious plans to turn back the government clock to George Washington's time. Intriguing, bewildering, and just a tad off-the-hip, this episode has it all!

    Strap in for a rollercoaster ride through the landscape of legislative lunacy, as they discuss marijuana and abortion laws, immigration shenanigans, and Trump's wild game of cabinet Sudoku.

  • Ep. 50 - The Zipper Merge and The Podcast Turned 50!
    Nov 7 2024

    Have you ever heard of the Zipper Merge? AND more importantly, do you care to hear about it now?

    In this jam-packed episode (HALFWAY through our season - you could drop us a rating or an email), our Father & Son hosts Steve and Jeff Koegler navigate through a series of seemingly mundane but highly relatable life challenges.

    A hilarious tangent on concert etiquette and traveling woes erupts, particularly focusing on the absurdity of TSA regulations and people's general behavior in airports. The main event, however, is an intense and witty debate over the 'zipper merge' traffic rule, bringing about slippery thoughts on driving etiquette and road rage.

    Jeff and Steve wrap it up with reflections on grocery shopping and the nutty nature of modern travel, all while weaving in the recurring theme of following the rules—or creatively bending them in the Koegler-fashion.

    Oct 31 2024

    CHECK YOUR PHONES AT THE DOOR! We're on a Father/Son adventure! Jeff and Steve were third row for Dave Chappelle in Savannah, Georgia. The venue only got a star or two, but the comedian got HIGH marks, for sure.

    Welcome to Casual Chats in a Parallel Universe - and another giddy glimpse into a day-in-the-life with our favorite Father & Son hosts.

    While Dave presented his equal-opportunity humor, Steve's hearing aids were working harder than anyone else in the room.

    Oct 24 2024

    Welcome to another therapy sess --- or I mean "casual chat" between Father & Son. Steve and Jeff Koegler are once again diving into the way-back machine and setting the main controls for a fun, little place called "Jeff's Childhood".

    Jeff is taking off the guardrails, unscrewing the training wheels, and dusting off the fake I.D.'s. We're in a grocery store parking lot and a crowd is forming.

    Jeff describes this time like this: "It was super dangerous and super stupid". If that doesn't make you listen...check your pulse!
