What do a clump of goldfish, a ruined wedding cake, and toe-stained Birkenstocks have in common? They all made it into our February highlight reel. This month was unhinged in the best way. From morally questionable decisions to overpriced Facebook Marketplace chaos, we pulled together the best moments from February’s episodes.

301: Funny Business Is Changing But Not How We Tip

We suited up. We reminisced. We raw-dogged it… with no socks. From episode 1 to 300, it’s been Bud Light Orange, bacon suits, and best friend chaos the whole way through.

It’s a full-blown celebration of 300 consecutive episodes, reliving our favorite bits, failed quizzes, cursed boxes, and our most viral moments (yes, the bacon suit makes a return).

300: No Regrets, Just 300 Weeks of Beautiful Chaos

“6-7” made the dictionary, then got banished. Make it make sense. We’re back with Lake Superior State University’s annual list of words we should all stop saying, and this year’s entries are massive. Literally. Also, Matt nearly coughs out a rib, Mike becomes an Excel wizard, and we both realize “gifted” might be the worst verb of the decade.

299: The 2026 Banished Words List: “6-7” Just Got 86’d 

What’s up there?! From light bulbs to rubber gaskets, the ER saw it all in 2024 and we’re here to react, cringe, and try to understand. Plus, Matt cries at Stranger Things, Mike’s CPAP won’t travel, and a surprise pool table was not what it seemed.

298: What’s Up There?! The ER’s Strangest Year-End Report

The internet was loud, confusing, and absolutely exhausting in 2025, and we processed it with zero brain cells. From Jet2holidays to Group 7 chaos, this episode is our unfiltered wrap-up of the TikTok trends and pop culture moments we barely understood as we recap the weirdest internet trends, reflect on the year that was, and hand out our last Cheers To You before ringing in 2026.

297: Wrapping 2025 with TikTok, Pop Culture, and Zero Brain Cells

Snow is falling, the flu is spreading, and the Belschnickel is crawling across your roof with four cows and four steers. Mike breaks out a Pennsylvania Dutch Night Before Christmas, Matt fights sickness armed with a vintage shovel, and someone’s deodorant routine is hanging by a very thin thread.

296: Flu Season, Snow Shovels, and the Belschnickel

Santa’s got a new Christmas banger and we’re fully obsessed. Mike’s back from his honeymoon with stingray stories, surprise tequila, and a mongoose sighting. Matt’s mad about college football rankings, but at least a TikTok helped an 88-year-old retire with $1.7 million. Chaos, karaoke, and Caribbean vibes await.

295: Santa’s New Jam Is Wild (And We’re Obsessed)

Have you ever laughed so hard you questioned your life choices? Matt might have. Mike swears he didn’t. This week we dive into a chaotic round of “Never Have I Ever” that derails into moral dilemmas, matching honeymoon outfits, and drive-thru small talk that goes completely off the rails.

Which Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon are you holding on to? Matt went full Super Saiyan over Goku, flirted with Mario, and still somehow ended up swinging into Spider-Man’s arms. Someone also walked away with a cup of pure Dunkin’ cream with no coffee in sight.Plus, we’re giving thanks in the most chaotic way possible with another round of “Cheers to You,” where quarter zips and postal workers finally get the appreciation they deserve.00:00 Intro04:48 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon bracket showdown24:07 Person of the Week24:54 Cheers To You!38:58 Advice and Outro
