In Ep. 22 of The Hump! Podcast, Brent & Chad Talk About … Marriage
But before they get in trouble talking about marriage, Brent and Chad …
- Share a few toasts while downing some of Bur Oak’s Hoppen-Daz Mochaccino Porter. So good.
- Their toasts of the week include …
- Ep. 21 guest and KC craft beer influencer Alana Gwinner of Eleven Three KC. Also … thanks to the listeners who jumped in with Chad to donate a Hot Wheels to Alana in her quest to help a five-year-old boy in Nebraska who’d lost all of his during the recent floods.
- Our producer Grant for his video work about Kim Davis, executive director of Amethyst Place
- The month of April (see below)
- What we’re up to …
- April was so AWESOME … Brent, in particular, didn’t want it to end
- Brent scored close to a cool grand, winning The Charlie Hustle NCAA Tournament bracket
- Chad hit his share of shows, including Alice Merton at The RecordBar
- Both sound Avengers: End Game. Brent “enjoyed” it a second time at the new B&B Theater 4D Screen. It was cool, but getting your ass kicked for a three-hour movie was a bit much
- Game of Thrones! We talk Game of Thrones! Game of Thrones!
- An Open Belly Podcast Event at Parlor in the Crossroads
- Brent’s first visit to EJs Urban Eatery
- Stowers Institute’s Big Ideas Event. Paleontology has never been so cool.
- Startland News Live podcast
- Trying new breweries Transport and Servaes
- Helping KCYA bring Destination Imagination to KC, the largest conference in the city since 2008. Doling out tickets to Tony Award Winning Star of Hamilton Renee Elise Goldsberry September event with the Kansas City Symphony.
- Oh … and a little thing called Easter with family (facepalm).
- Brent tried to enjoy the Tap Tour 3 Release Party, but buddy Hunter was more interested in chatting with Channel 5 about Tyreek Hill (Oh boy!).
This Week’s Topic — Marriage … Or Is It … Mawage?
The fellas discuss marriage at their own risk. (Brent is pretty certain this episode will be dissected many different ways over the coming weeks — more so perhaps than even season eight of Game of Thrones.) Still, they trudge onward. Very much at risk of getting something horribly wrong. One only needs to listen to this week’s Triple D.
How Fellas Think About Marriage
Brent and Chad quiz each other on different aspects of married life:
- They discuss how they each met their respective spouses. Was Chad’s fate all along to marry his wife? And Brent had to make amends with a friend before he was even allowed to speak with his bride to be.
- What do they each find important in their marriage? Laughter. Sure. Communication. Every bit as critical. (Does bickering count?)
- You need that laughter once you have kids. The fellas chat how kids changed the dynamics of their relationship with their wives?
- Hope no one from the family listens to this show. Brent and Chad react to the adage, “when you marry … you marry the family.”
- Surprises. They chat things they didn’t expect out of their marriage. Mostly good. But surprising nonetheless.
- And … they consider the future, talking about how their marriages have changed over the years as well as things they look forward to with their respective spouses.
- If you’re looking for any discussion of sex, that will have to wait until Brent and Chad bring a KC-area relationship coach on as a guest.
And This Episode’s Game of “Triple D” …
To close out The Hump! Podcast … Brent and Chad play a quick round of Triple D.
What’s Triple D?
They throw out a scenario … and discuss whether it’s a DICK, DOUCHE or DUMBASS move …
This week’s Triple D move — What do you call someone who asks you to do something — is never pleased with it — so they redo it anyway?
We discuss and debate on the show, but feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments (keep it clean folks, as they reserve the right to delete any personal attacks or defamatory information).
You Can Catch The Hump! Live
You can watch Brent and Chad LIVE 7 p.m. CST most Wednesdays on Facebook (and sometimes Instagram — when it works).
They’ll publish the replays on Facebook and places where good audio can be found (see below platforms — and not saying they’re good, but they’ll slum along greatness).
