Blk & Blu is back with an all new episode, featuring Tom Spooner and Josh Lannon of Warriors Heart!
Before the episode kicks off, the three share their collaborative effort with Frontline Healing Foundation, and the new Hope campaign.
The timing of this episode was intentional, as Kyle, Tom, and Josh wanted to get this out before the holidays. They discuss what it's like to struggle with addiction, how the holidays are a tough time for warriors, and what they believe is the solution.
Next up, they dive into the founding of Warriors Heart, detailing what sets it apart from other rehabilitation programs, what alcohol does for some people, and how helping others is their greatest passion.
To wrap, Kyle, Tom, and Josh share their thoughts on building community, being vulnerable with one another, and how it opens the door to true healing. Let's get into it.

The two discuss work ethic, lessons learned along the way as business owners, and working in a service capacity.

The Blk & Blu Podcast is back, and so is a fan favorite! Chris Fettes joined us again on the show to drop more wisdom, faith, and general goodness.
After reaching inner peace, the guys kicked things off by discussing drama, projecting, and venting. From there, it's all gratitude, breathwork, and how they spend their downtime. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Chris isn't big into the whole fantasy football thing.
Next up, Kyle does a deep dive on the three enemies, Chris gives his perspective on the evolution of Blu Bearing, and they discuss how telling the truth (even when it's inconvenient) might just be the thing that saves us all.
To wrap, the guys talk art (shoutout Megan Valentine), toss some zyns, and nerd out over watches. Let's get into it.

In this very special episode, the crew kicks things off with an unsolicited ASMR review of Be Free Craft Cafe's pastries and ice cream...because everyone loves a sweet treat. Chris and Kyle discuss the nostalgia behind ice cream, while Blake tries his best not to go into a sugar coma. They also share the origin story of their friendship, and how it's clearly fate that these two met.
The guys talk about their walk in faith, what it's like to share their testimonies to the world, and how to build a business from scratch. If there's anything you can take away from this episode, it's show up for your friends and trust the process. Let's get ready to crumble.

Happy 4th of July, and welcome back to another episode of the Blk & Blu podcast! In today's episode, Blake and Kyle kick things with a birthday beatdown, because according to Blake, Kyle should be in a nursing home by now. Next, Kyle shares how he's gearing up for another trip to Texas, where he'll attend the Frontline Healing Foundation gala and an actual rodeo. Yes, boots will be worn.
Blake spills the beans on his recent guest spot on the Blurry Creatures podcast, plus the travel trauma that comes with flying next to Nicole. He also reveals his current obsession: owning a pet falcon. Naturally, Kyle counters by flexing an old photo of himself holding America's freedom mascot...a real bald eagle. Speaking of animals, Blake recaps a wild vet trip with King George, who clearly eats like one. Spoiler: he's fine, but the x-rays paint quite the picture.
To close it out, the guys fuel their competitive fire with plans for a Blu Bearing Olympics, reveal the name of their very first podcast guest, and break down the ultimate Dad shoe lineup. This one's loaded...let's get into it.

Next up, the guys breakdown their most recent competition (we’ll let you decide who won) and Blake shares some photos of his newest friends. There’s a whole lot of horsing around in this episode…bad joke my bad.
To wrap up, they talk about tipsy Airbnb superhosts, pianos that play themselves (spooky) and their infamous dump pouch diet. This episode is a good one, let’s get into it.Sponsors:

The Blk & Blu Podcast is back with an all new episode! This week, things commence with a discussion on Kyle's upcoming back surgery, and Blake's recent video shoot for Patreon. It get real, real quick, as Blake shares his struggles with being punished in his relationship...I'm not going to elaborate anymore on that.
Like clockwork, the guys roll into the traditional Zyn toss (too close for comfort here) and talk best friend things, like Blake's tattoos and Kyle's inability to grow a beard. Blakeypoo shares how he cringes at curse words now, and Blu Bear recites (or attempts to recite) the Ranger Creed. You can take the man out of the Army, but you can't take the Army out of the man.
To wrap it all up, they discuss the upcoming season of The Chosen, share some ghost stories, and of course, a pirate fact of the day. By they talk, I mean Blake. The last 20+ minutes is just Blake rambling. 100% Blake. You're welcome. Let's get into it.

Next up, Kyle shares his most recent man vs wild experience and they give their take on the "100 Men vs 1 Gorilla" debate. That silverback doesn't stand a chance.
To wrap, Blake tells what might be the most West Virginia story of all time, discuss testosterone therapy, and recap the NFL draft with Jax Ulbrich's $350,000 mistake. If that sounds like a good time, then buckle up (looking at you Blake) and press play...let's get into it.

If you were a lucky winner, expect a DM from @blkblupodcast to coordinate shipping. Speaking of, Kyle shares one of his favorite commercial campaigns of all time- shoutout to the KMart (1962-2024) marketing team. They deserved better.
Next up, we’re getting weird as Blake relives his childhood encounters with the oddest folks in West Virginia, the Whittaker family. Shoutout Lil Timmy. From there, they talk about old video games, bad haircuts (debatable) and Blake’s beard routine.
In the end, this wouldn’t be a Blk & Blu episode if Blake didn’t black out, Kyle didn’t ring the bell, and they both tried some questionable accents…safe to say this episode has it all. The guys wrap by discussing Blake’s son’s newest business venture, unboxing gifts from supporters (you’ll love this) and hinting at future guests & merch. Well, what are you waiting for?

Welcome back to the Blk & Blu Podcast! In this week’s episode, Blake and Kyle kick things off by acknowledging all the work they do to run the show…it has nothing to do with Starship Commander- whose identity remains to be revealed. Next up, the guys unpack their routine morning FaceTime, and how Blake continues to have a lying problem. To ease the tension, Blake presents Kyle with a new gift from one of our gracious supporters…so you all can thank Mike for bringing back a very *special* item.
After a long week of solo-parenting, Kyle shares some newfound perspective on what it takes to keep an orderly house, and Blake addresses his concerns with NC weather. They get into their recent trip to Virginia Beach, who could run a faster 40, and why Blake hems his short-shorts. Yes, you read that correctly. To wrap up, Blakeypoo and Blu Bear talk about linking up with the guys at GBRS, checking out the Be Free Craft Cafe, and how ecstatic BB3 was to finally meet his hero (it rhymes with “TJ” Quickly). As them West Virginian’s would say, this episodes a hoot…let’s get into it.

Welcome back to another episode of the Blk & Blu Podcast! In this week's episode, the guys kick things off with a good old fashioned intervention. Blake seems to have a "problem" with seatbelts (and getting to work on time) so Kyle sets some new boundaries. To make him feel better, Kyle presents Blake with a gift from a listener...shoutout David!
Next up, the guys get patriotic while reacting to the Canada vs USA hockey game and talk about their home defense course, because nothing screams 'Merica like beating Canadians and protecting your home...*insert bald eagle screech here*
To wrap things up, Kyle shares how his past weekend went- which consisted of IV therapy, Christian comedy shows, and a lot of note-taking... all the things you learn to appreciate as you approach your mid-40's. We hope you enjoy the banter in this one, but if you don't, Blake is already blaming Apple for it. Let's get into it.

We are BACK baby! We are back…with an all new episode of the Blk & Blu Podcast! In this week’s episode, the guys recap their trip to Shot Show in Sin City…aka Las Vegas. Knowing these two, it didn’t go how you’d expect. In fact, Blake returned deathly ill with the “China virus”, leaving Kyle (and Starship Commander) no choice but to mask-up.
To kick off the episode, Kyle shares some insight on the Safariland x Unit Solutions livestream they did and how he spent his 20th year wedding anniversary. In true Blk & Blu fashion, Blake is the bearer of bad news (see what I did there) and informs Kyle that the courthouse where he got married is now a jail…how romantic! The guys then discuss the flight to Vegas, and how security at the hotel was more difficult than the airport. Of course, they break down the Gundies, recount meeting some heroes, and even talk about pedicures. Yeah, that happened. There’s quite a lot to unpack in this episode (not Nicole’s suitcase though) so slap that play button and let’s get into it.

Welcome back to the Blk & Blu Podcast, the internet's top source for pirate knowledge and soft-bullying! This week, Blake and Kyle kick things off by finally addressing the million dollar question...what bracelets are they wearing? They then discuss Blake's tendency to use Urban Dictionary, and how it might be his downfall. Speaking of downfalls, the guys finally agree it's time to cut Starship Commander some slack...well, maybe not but a guy can dream, right??
In preparation for Shot Show, Kyle recounts some memories from the past, and Blake shares his hopes for this trip...hopefully he doesn't get stranded in a snow storm like his last outing. This episode dives deep into the milestones of life, as Blake talks Christmas traditions, and Kyle shares the bittersweet realization that his kids are all grown up...Blake would say the same but his neighbor's yard might argue otherwise- you'll see what I mean later. To wrap up, the guys talk therapy, Chris Fettes, and of course end with some more pirate facts. Whether you're here for laughs or a little life wisdom, this episode has it all. Let's get into it.

Welcome back to the Blk & Blu Podcast, the show where Blake & Kyle clipfarm for an hour and some change! In this week’s episode, the guys kick things off by finally putting an end to the bell situation…whether or not it was an appropriate response is for you all to decide. Blake tries, and fails, to show some love to his wife, and the guys talk about their respective Christmas dinners- let’s just say Blake will be joining the Morgans this year. It wouldn’t be a Blk & Blu episode without Blake sharing yet another horror story about his Airbnb (there’s a common denominator here) or his love for pirates…we’re talking mutinies, pirate divers, the whole shabang.
Naturally, the conversation derails as the guys talk about the upcoming Gundies, and how Blake feels robbed of his shot at Most Dapper…maybe he should wear the Santa suit more often. For those of you hoping to claim the “$100 Nickname & Slap” contest, a brave student has already secured the victory…you can still call him Blakeypoo though. In case you’re here for education purposes, Kyle dives into Mark Zuckerberg's recent Meta policy updates, the Canadian Prime Minister’s resignation, and a little geography pop quiz- that bridge to Alaska won’t build itself. Mix in a couple inappropriate jokes here and there, and this episode feels like 8th grade recess all over again. You won’t leave this episode any smarter, but you’ll definitely be entertained. Let’s get into it.
