The boys return with the greatest riff in podcast history. Election Day? Whatever
The full crew is back this week with an incredible but terrible weekend from Tony. The episode closes out with some ghost stories from reddit.
Tony, Aaron, and Dylan talk about the Seul Choix Pointe Lighthouse that's located in Gulliver, MI here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The lighthouse was once known as the most haunted place in Michigan.
After the long lost episode of 99 got deleted back in May, the boys return with the official 100th episode of the podcast. We hope you missed us, we missed you.
This week's episode is like the opening act at a comedy show. It's meant to warm up the crowd for episode 99 with the whole gang. Aaron and Chris catch up after Aaron's bachelor party and wedding. The boys talk gardening, yappin' with their wives, rights of passage, fishing, and more. Welcome back, Failures, the whole gang returns soon!
Today the gang looks at what they want to accomplish this summer, an important restaurant review from Tony, and an upper peninsula sleeper-brewery takes gold!
These guys will put just anything out there, won't they? Eclipse chatter, followed by Dylan's weekend Trout escapades. Caitlin Clark plays basketball, and Nascar legends take a proverbial backseat as owners of racing teams. Catch us at your next hardware store buying a fishing license or a candy bar!
Dylan and Aaron check in for a tight 45 on National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day, with a nod to National DIY day, Taxes, and some Facebook Market finds!
Dylan returns to the midwest in this episode, Aaron is up to his neck in mud at work, and the boys collectively break down bumper sticker culture. What's the most redneck thing you've seen? Two of our failures find some of the answers in this week's redneck "addition".
This week the entire gang is back and ready to stir the pot. They start off with a tortoise on the lamb in Manistique, and move quickly into the guts of this week's episode: How would you categorize the towns of the Upper Peninsula? Things get weird and mildly insulting this week, see where your hometown landed on our list!
This week all 4 failures are back to chat about the worst and best of the western towns in the Upper Peninsula. Trenary gets a shoutout, and what the hell is going on in Dick, Michigan? The hardest sports to play are revealed, the gang relives their 2000's skatewear fashion, and the burning question of the evening: What's a robotics tournament smell like?
This week's episode brings Tony, Dylan, and Aaron through some bachelor party anticipation, the race towards episode 100, and a machete at a bus stop in the cold open. From there, the gang interviews the president of The 31st Trenary Outhouse Classic, an outhouse race in the heart of the U.P. Tony presents a parody of Hardy's "Rednecker" and the boys drill down on Ontonagon's last lifeline.
The cost of deodorant got you down? What was your signature Axe scent in 8th grade? Chris, Dylan and Aaron get to the bottom of some strange topics in episode 91. Fishin' talk, family recipes/traditions, sentimental items, and more in this week's episode.
Aaron and Dylan start off today's episode by reliving some 90's nostalgia: the best era of country music, the cost of fame, Nascar's best years, followed by some local brews with Tony. They round out the episode with more food chatter and for one of the most utilitarian products to come out of the Upper Peninsula: Baroni's.
Aaron and Dylan relax this Wednesday morning with a light and late superb owl recap, what makes a half time show, radio advice, a long shot at the stock market, and sellin' souls for overtime hours and bullsh*t pay.
Groundhog day has come and gone, and a fully loaded cast returns this week with much to discuss. Who's LinkedIn looks as good as Chris's? Trenary Toast and Outhouse Races? Has Arby's fallen from their former glory? Is there a time it's acceptable to NOT pay it forward? Should northern Wisconsin, the entire Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and the upper third of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan combine forces as the 51st state? The gang gets to the bottom of all of this nonsense in Episode 88!
Aaron and Dylan drill down on the Detroit Lions, chat about some old music, National Gorilla Suit Day, vintage cell phones, and more!
This week Dylan and Aaron go head to head. The fishing outlook looks great for 2024 as the boys talk what went well last year, and what they look forward to in the coming season. Michigan DOT snowplow names are mentioned, along with 20 years of getting Baja Blasted. Dylan offers up some not-so-delicious Grog ingredients, and we learn what some Florida men were doing on our birthdays!
On another appetizing episode of "Failure At It's Fattest" hour, Dylan and Aaron begin the night with some discourse about midwest-mom-and-pop burger bars. Are restauranteurs going too far with menu items? Who's dollar is worth more: the guy in the suit at the craft brewery or the Deadhead white guy with the dreads serving that very beer? International Hot & Spicy food day gives the boys a sizzle, with a heated lineup of hot sauces that line refrigerator doors globally. What's Europe got to do with any of it? Hit us up via voicemail (906)-301-0061!
This week Aaron, Chris, and Dylan navigate the muddy waters of discipline to start off the night. They foray into the un-planned winter season in the lower peninsula of Michigan, followed by a question of "When is it okay to wear Cowboy gear?" TSA agents run rampant, and Butt-rock influences the group beyond what they could imagine, all in a laid-back, slow ride, easy listening conversation amongst the best of pals!
