Sep 30, 2019

Jerry went broke working in Reno, Jesus critiques modern gangsters, Christian explains sleepovers, and a heated debate erupts about movie remakes with all-women casts.

Getting paid upfront was NOT a good idea for Jerry's week in Reno. He gambled his entire paycheck back to the casino. The guys break down Vegas for Jesus, who is SHOCKED by the amount of money they say you need.

All the Wannabes remember getting kicked out of their school bands. They get serious for a second and talk about being bullied.

Jerry and Jesus were never allowed to have sleepovers, so Christian reveals what happens and why they're great.

Then: Ghostbusters, Ocean's 8, and now, maybe, a female James Bond? The guys share their unfiltered thoughts about gender-swapped remakes, and an argument ensues.

Finally, the most heartfelt shout-out to the #1 podcast listener of all time: RIP Rickster. You will be missed. This one's for you.

Sep 23, 2019

The guys remember high school club life with their pimped-out rides and paisa mustaches! Plus, a review of the Popeye's chicken sandwich, and Jesus balls out.

Jerry's high school Zephyr was a chick magnet. This leads to talk of neon lights, spinning rims, thumping stereos, and all the ways dumbass high schoolers tried to make their shitty cars look dope.

Christian is a Groupon ho, and he wants everyone to be on the McDonald's app.

Jesus reveals he is a chicken professional, and the Wannabes go deep on Popeye's vs. Chick-fil-A vs. El Pollo Loco vs. KFC vs. Church's. The only discussion you'll ever need on the topic.

Then, Jerry again says what we're all thinking: Should you want your daughter to be super ugly or super hot? Christian struggles as a dad with jealousy he hasn't felt since high school.

And finally, Jesus threatens to piss in Jerry's face over pickup basketball, while Jerry demands Jesus own up to blowing a voiceover audition. Also, RIP Kevin Hart.

Jerry is hung up on "the one that got away," and the lovely Krystle Zaragoza chimes in with advice on whether or not Jerry is being played. Dayyyyum.

Finally, everybody's got opinions on how long to date with no sex, before a brand new PREGUNTAS SEGMENT showcases a steamy story of forbidden love straight out of Jerry's favorite porno. Bow-chicka-bow-wow.

The guys talk going viral with All Def veteran (and Jesus' editing crush) Cris Sosa, who also tells the story of his ex-stepmom's failed plot to kill his dad.

Cris (@cristinososa on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook) has been blowing up online, so the Wannabes go deep on their philosophies for the influencer economy. What's the best way to shoot your shot with the baddies - DMs, comments, stories, or let 'em come to you?

Then, Jesus introduces the Jerry G IT'S NOT MY WEEKEND Drinking Game, and Jerry reflects on how little TV means in today’s entertainment world. That reminds Christian of the time Jesus bootlegged his own CD. And Cris tells the story of how he BDE'd himself right into a job with Kevin Hart.

Finally, the epic story of how Cris' dad faked his own death to entrap his murderous wife. You must must must listen.

Jesus gets in the middle of another basket-brawl, Jerry G brings his talents to elementary school, and the guys debate the merits of dating each others' exes.

Jesus is wearing a cowboy hat, and it might be the biggest controversy ever on the show. Jerry has discovered the horrifying world of children’s YouTube. “Baby Shark” is cool though.

Jerry booked a 100% clean comedy set, and Jesus tears it apart.

The guys remember a childhood friend who starred in the Shaq movie KAZAAM!, then had to go back to living a normal life. They remember if they wanted to be famous Netflix stars growing up.
