Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Bad and Sad: Daniel’s Homeowner Maintenance Checklist | Ep. 306
Daniel and Soren spiral from a question about fatherly virtue into the unglamorous rituals of homeownership: cleaning dishwasher filters, testing fire extinguishers, inspecting crawlspaces, and worrying about phantom basement leaks. Daniel confesses to following a Redditor’s “psychotic” home maintenance spreadsheet, while Soren admits he’s never once tested a smoke detector. Along the way they cover the delicate art of writing jokes for Last Week Tonight, a formative childhood fire incident, and the existential dread of discovering a wasp nest the size (but not shape) of a dog.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Soren And Daniel, Co-Parenting | Ep. 305
Daniel's going to be a dad, and as you can guess he's being very normal about the whole thing, which means Soren gets to be the wise elder dispensing hard-earned advice about nap discipline, phantom drowning babies, and the forbidden art of sleeping anywhere.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Comedy Washing | Ep. 304
Daniel and Soren wade into the Riyadh Comedy Festival mess: who showed up, who stayed home, and how much moral flexibility three million dollars buys. Then a hard pivot to domestic policy (when to wash a dish and when to call it art) before wrapping up with wasp warfare and the case for seeing what everyone on the internet actually looks like.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Did Hollywood Call? | Ep. 302
Daniel talks through the post-Emmy afterglow that never arrived: a clean cut to Kimmel, a week of headlines, and then absolutely no industry knock at the door—no agents, no meetings, not even a polite threat. Soren matches him with his own long relationship to being un-represented on a very represented show. Plus the private logic of phones and closets: color-gradient app grids, folders labeled “Who Cares,” bottom-row dock politics, and the eternal “useful” pile. Finally, a full throated endorsement for Writing Things Down.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Seven Emmys in a One-Bedroom | Ep. 301
Forgive us if this is getting predictable, but Daniel's back from another Emmys weekend in Los Angeles — his seventh award, but the first time he’s actually given the speech. He and Soren talk through the stress of timing jokes against Nate Bargatze’s running bit, how John Oliver beat him to the shortest-speech gag, and what it feels like to have too many trophies in a small apartment. Plus detours into plane movies (Mickey 17 and, controversially, Oblivion), fake dicks in White Lotus, and why some celebrities are simply more naked than others.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Six Degrees of... Giovanni Ribisi? | Quick Question Ep. 300
Daniel and Soren celebrate their 300th episode by not celebrating at all. Instead, they try to find a modern equivalent for the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game. Their journey of naming working actors takes them on a wild ride of channel numbers, 90s baseball players, and the secret lives of character actors. The question is, can they come up with a new game without getting sidetracked by more lists of names?

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Can We Survive NFL Training Camp? | Ep. 299
Soren and Daniel spiral from NFL training camp envy to the existential dread of improv comedy. Along the way: childhood coaches who never found the magic words, the dream of living in dorms again, why “maximum capacity” should be on a tombstone, and recurring nightmares about being forced onto  @dropout  Game Changer.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Swamp Boys of New Jersey | Episode 298
Soren and Daniel once again find themselves in the middle of a podcast about home maintenance, as Daniel reckons with sabotaging his own washer and almost taking credit for fixing it. He also tries to make sense of driveway contractors who negotiate against themselves. Soren, meanwhile, explains efflorescence, revisits the joys of attics and crawl spaces, and describes the particular misery of hauling out a possum that’s been dead too long. Stay damp out there, folks.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Voice Acting for Animation + Post-Hollywood Businesses (Definitely Not Scams) | Ep. 297
Daniel and Soren split their time between two topics: voice acting for animation, where Soren takes us behind the scenes of American Dad for some interesting observations about talent and skill, and then a titular Quick Question from titular Daniel about starting franchise businesses. The first half covers everything from Homer Simpson’s changing sound to Seth MacFarlane’s least favorite voice to why impressions can’t replace original delivery. The second half imagines what kind of franchises they’d bring to their own towns — from Daniel’s deliberately short-term fitness studio to Soren’s dream of importing Tucson’s beloved Beyond Bread to Los Angeles.

Pickleball for Powerful Podcasters | Ep. 296
Email the show at qqwithsorenanddaniel@gmail.com, DM us on instagram, or leave a comment on YouTube to let us know where in the world you’d like to see the guys perform.

Soren and Daniel cover a lot of ground this week: from Saw lore and the long overdue *Muppets Saw* starring Michael Caine, to Daniel’s glowing review of *Freakier Friday* (“movies are back”). They weigh in on the dubious “Most Powerful Podcasters” list, take swings at chicken cacciatore and oysters, and get into Daniel’s shocking breakup with ketchup. Also on the menu: raw-dogged hash browns, the defense of meatloaf, and why pickleball might just be an MLM for rich people.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
In Self-Defense of Full House | Ep. 293
The guys talk about Soren's weapon issue for as long as Daniel can muster, before they "cut. it. out!" and  transition very normally to a celebration of the 90's sitcom Full House: catchphrases, effort level, what a rewatch is revealing to Daniel about how TV has changed, and why writers should play a little bit of sports.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Who Invented the Cougar Room? | Ep. 292
Daniel and Soren reunite after a long break you didn’t notice to talk about movies best half-watched on airplanes, why Michael Clayton still rules, and what it means to “gang up” on a punchline. They get deep into terminology of their respective writers’ rooms—Bone Pile, Cougar, TK, Alt Sim But Diff—and debate whether their podcast is normie or alien. Plus: Jason Statham as Buster Keaton, Kelsey Grammer’s punctuation tyranny, and the existential horror of watching young people react to you saying “skibidi toilet.”

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Hand Stuff on the Drama Bus | Episode. 291
Soren and Daniel embark on a deeply nostalgic journey through their adolescence in an exhaustive attempt at defining, once and for all, what “hooking up” actually means. They talk about the flawed yet ubiquitous baseball bases metaphor, accidentally lying about doin’ it on a roller coaster, and why “going down” is a linguistic life vest. Plus, Daniel learns too late what counts as “talking” and Soren remembers a potentially problematic doctor.

Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
Building a Better Birthday Party | Ep. 290
Daniel asks Soren what his dream children’s birthday party would look like—and is horrified by the answer. They discuss the grim realities of modern parenting etiquette: napkins that disintegrate on contact, unguarded bathroom doors, and the impossibility of feeding both adults and children. Plus: Spider-Man party flirting, a Chuck E. Cheese beatdown, and why kids no longer open presents in front of each other.

The Fall That Kills You | Quick Question Ep. 289
Daniel was adjacent to a situation at a Pete Davidson show that leads the guys to a conversation about bystander instincts, invisible heroism, and what it means to be posed in your seat. Plus, cremation fraud, why cemeteries are dumb, and why people who rescue you never want to talk about it.
