Shenanigans Episode 88: There's No Spooning in Shenanigans

Happy Bobby Bonilla Day! Yes, the day we recorded this was that infamous baseball holiday, which we will still be able to observe for the next seven years, or really as long as the Mets continue to be a (barely) functioning team. We talk nice about Gronk, worried for his health as various news outlets are claiming he's wasting away. Vinnie went to his very first concert, and there is an update on meth squirrel. Apparently, there is a men's cuddling group in Pennsylvania and a woman now eats air to stay healthy. Meanwhile, there is nothing strange happening at the Denver Airport. You saw nothing. You heard nothing.

Cast: Craig, Walden, Rich, and Vinnie

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 7: Man Caves & Escape Routes

In our newest Dads episode, we talk about man caves and some of the things we do or where we go when we need a little break from all the action. Of course, with Howie, we go a little off the rails, but we stick fairly close to the topic at hand. Sometimes, the man cave is less of a space and more of a hobby for us. 

Cast: Craig, Howie, Bobby

Shenanigans Episode 87: What a Meth of Squirrels

We started off this show a little political. Well, maybe more than just a little. Craig tells us about the drone that was hovering over his backyard at dinner. Good Omens is getting some awesome, free publicity from the very people trying to stop its production. We're back in Rancho Cucamonga for some interesting police news. There are a lot of animals. Animals. Animals. And please don't flush your goldfish. And we're still NSFW.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 6: School's Out Summer Vacation

Summer vacation is here. As we post this, the littlest of Craig and Bobby's kids are celebrating the last day of the school year. The older kids have been done since Friday, and so have all of Howie's. So, what do you do now that they're all home for the summer? Sleepovers and summer camps seem to be the highlights for most of the kids. What plans do you have for your kids while they're off for the summer? And we discuss the release of Toy Story 4. Just a little and no spoilers.

Shenanigans Episode 86: And Boy Are His Arms Tired

Vinnie explains Whattaburger to us Northerners and what we're missing, but we remind him of our own local burger joint. Vinnie also seems to have a bathroom beer holder. We make fun of soccer players, and have major pop culture fails without Howie here to assist. We also discuss 4 year old drivers making let turns onto 4-lane highways. And when it comes to Canada Watch, hilarity ensues.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 5: Dad & Mom Taxi Service, Inc

This week we talk about carting our kids all over the place for their activities, whether they be dance, extracurricular school activities, or theater. We talk about this from our points of view, but please don't think that our wives aren't the most important cog in this whole taxi service. They definitely are. We also talk about board games and card games we play with the family. Howie's daughter sneaks in every once in awhile during this episode, and Bobby and Craig teach Howie about sun tea.

Shenanigans Episode 85: And That's Why We Have Warning Labels

It's Father's Day weekend and we talk a little about that before bringing up the 25th anniversary of the slowest car chase in television history. Sure Justin Bieber wants to fight Tom Cruise for publicity. Craig just wants to hit him for bad grammar. Be careful how you use hairdryers at the pool. Just a reminder, there is no day called "night." And we still want to work on the Frozen Margarita Challenge.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 4: Happy Father's Day

This week were supposed to talk about our dads, and we do get there. However, Howie takes us off on a tangent that consumes a big part of the show. We do talk a little about our dads, and our own lives as dads. And we talk about grilling and whether we've peaked as cool dads. Cargo shorts are not uncool, by the way. Happy Father's Day!

Cast: Craig, Howie, Bobby

Shenanigans Episode 84: The Shenanigans Frozen Margarita Challenge

We were down to a trio this week as both Rich and Howie bailed on us. We talk about the shocking loss on Jeopardy as it happened just before we started recording, and continued on about gambling. Craig has an anti-drug sentiment, and we discuss a little urban exploring. The first part of the show is very interesting before the NSFW segment kicks in. We talk about celebrity cheese and MDMA perfume. And there are special bathing shorts for men this summer. Very special indeed.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 3: Becoming Parents & Sibling Rivalry

This week's episode was supposed to be our stories about finding out our spouses were pregnant and our reactions, as well as the birth of our first child (or children in Craig's case). Instead, we start off completely off the rails and talk about being the oldest and sibling rivalry. We move on to budgeting for a family, hand me downs, and our first apartments. Then we get to talking about our original topic. It's all in good fun.
