S3 E11: "Sharing funny moments in Basic Training"
Monday Apr 08, 2024
Monday Apr 08, 2024
We tried to get my Aunt Carolyn on the phone - but I don't seem to have the proper audio cable for my mixer to get her to be able to hear our audio. For sure, it seems like technology is always getting the better of The 2 Od Farts.
Fear not! We will find a way. In the meantime, sit back, grab something cold to drink (because it's getting warmer) and enjoy our ramblings. Our ramblings of funny stories from Basic Training.
PS
Sorry about the echo from my dad.

Well, getting old sucks. That's for sure. As I said in the episode, when you're younger, life is all about Addition. When you get older, it's all about subtraction. And by GOD we are definitely losing it all. Our hair, our memory, or strength, our figure, our health, you name it. So if you are on the backside of 40, this is probably the podcast for you. Thank you for coming back. If you like us - please follow and subscribe. But more importantly, spread the word! Thanks!

The 2 Old Farts want you to remember those who are suffering. Fron the Texas Smokehouse Creek wildfires up in the panhandle to the Francis Scott Key bridge disaster in Baltimore.

And if you are a veteran and you need care or help with a claim, reach out to us. We can help you get the help you need. Don't suffer in silence. We got your back!

Sunday Mar 17, 2024
Sunday Mar 17, 2024
I almost forgot today was Saint Patrick's Day today. So guess what my dad and I talked about today? You guessed it, St. Patrick's Day!
As usual my dad has a little history lesson. We also delve into our family history/DNA. Yes, we are actually Irish. And a few other places too. Good old fashioned, 100% pure bred mutt! We hope you like it and keep on coming back.
PS I have to translate my father's deep Southern phrases and mispronunciations.

S3 E7 "Who hates daylight savings time?"
Sunday Mar 10, 2024
Sunday Mar 10, 2024
Who doesn't hate daylight savings time? I know I do and so does the better looking of the 2 Old Farts. Frankly we hate it and think it should be abolished? What say you?
In today's episode we talk history, Viet Nam, warfare today, failure to learn from history, whiskey, bourbon, single malt whiskey and other various sundry topics.
We hope you enjoy!

S3 E6: "Be kind plus You never know who you might meet"
Sunday Mar 03, 2024
Sunday Mar 03, 2024
Apologies for missing last week's episode. My father was a bit sick and I was coming off being sick. These things are harder to shake the older you get.
We had a lot to discuss since we didn't record an episode last week. Plus I have been to a lot of concerts these past few weeks with still more to come. Last night at the Pat Green concert, my wife meet the owner of Epic Western, an awesome cocktail in a can company. You should DEFINITELY give them a taste/try. Delicious!
Everything else, you will learn when you download and listen to this week's episode of The 2 Old Farts! Enjoy.

S3 E5 "Recording a Podcast when you have nothing to say"
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Some days you have something to talk about, some days you don't. Today seemed like one of those days. But (in our opinion) it went better than expected and a lot easier than expected.
What are your thoughts? Did we do ok? This podcast is still kind of searching for it's identity and direction. More than just the father/son aspect of it. Maybe we need to go deeper into the relationship. What do you think?

S3 E4: "It's Super Bowl Sunday!"
Sunday Feb 11, 2024
Sunday Feb 11, 2024
It IS Super Bowl 58 Sunday. Need I say more? It's a cornucopia, a buffet if you will, of Super Bowl facts and figures as ONLY my dad can deliver!

S3 E3 "When Parents Say 'We'll See' - We know what that really means"
Sunday Feb 04, 2024
Sunday Feb 04, 2024
Growing up - do you ever remember you're parent's telling you "we'll see" after you asked them for something or to do something" I bet you that when they said it - it meant - NO. Am I wrong?
Good day to everyone. Happy Week Before Superbowl Week! We also have some great news: We are now live-streaming our episodes, as we record them, on Twitch.tv. That's an awesome opportunity to grow our audience and reach a different set of listeners.
Not much to discuss this week other than it's Super Bowl Week. My beloved 49ers against the KC Chiefs! Stay tuned and listen in as my dad and I talk, just a little bit, about my 2 pee-wee football teams that I played for.
We hope you like us, follow us and come back each week.

S3 E2 "Cutting the line, cold butts and bourbon"
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Well, the weather outside was more than frightful - it was downright cold the week before last. So listen up 2 Old Farts fans - because you will hear all about the shenanigans that happened last weekend at the Country and Western show!
We met a lot of great people on the porch at Floores Country Store. It was cold but we had heaters and bourbon to keep us warm. All except for my mom's butt. But - get it - you will have to listen to it all to hear all about it.
Again, we apologize for not being consistent with our podcast and we will endeavor to get better. Please be patient and please stick with us.
