 RiaW 2.38 - Smackdown #TheRocktober | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:05:20

One thing we've never actually done for #TheRocktober is watch The Rock wrestling. We watched a documentary about it, but this year we're actually watching a whole episode, specifically the 2019 debut of Friday Night Smackdown on Fox. We have a great array of wrestling experience from much to absolutely none. Featuring  - Amber Preston (@PrestonParty) - Jamie Carbone (@ThiccSonic)

 RiaW 2.37 - Hobbs & Shaw (2019) #TheRocktober | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:06:46

Probably our favorite crazyballs franchise on this show is Fast & Furious. We've watched a bunch of them. And just because Hobbs & Shaw doesn't feature the whole families, it's still nice to spend a day with the cousins. The Rock and Jason Statham are punchy and quippy and care about their families, and while it isn't the best thing we've ever seen, it's not a bad couple of hours. Featuring Alex, Ezra, and special guests Chris Smith (@cwaltersmith) and Tanya Smith (@TheTanyeBest)

 RiaW 2.36 - GI Joe Retaliation (2013) #TheRocktober | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:12:26

The most rockerful time of year is upon us again, The Rocktober! And we're shooting it off with a real sad whimper. Look, The Rock mostly appears in low quality movies. But even for him, this one's a stinker.

 RiaW 2.35 - Back To School (1986) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:00:18

Autumn has fallen upon us and that means one thing: The Rocktober! Okay, but before that it's time to go back to school. We watched the 80s one-liner fiesta starring Rodney Dangerfield. And no disrespect but it's not that funny. Like a lot of stuff from the 80s it's racist, homophobic, body-negative and of course really really sexist. Featuring: Alex, Anthony, and Phoebe Bottoms (@phoebebottoms)

 RiaW 2.34 - Hawaii #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:04:43

Aloha! It's the official end of the #SummerOfFun. We ate lollies, caught a baseball game, hung out at the mall, and lots more. For our final episode of the summer, we talked to comedian and writer for Full Frontal w/ Samantha Bee, Mohanad Elshieky, about his recent trip to Hawaii. Thank you to everybody who's contributed votes, suggestions, feedback, and more for our summer. I hope everybody had fun in the sun and got laid in the shade. Never change. Aloha!

 RiaW 2.33 - Australian Lollies #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:10:32

Earlier this year we did a whole episode about candy from our childhood. Inspired by that, our Australian fanbase Rhiannon offered to send us over 3kg of candy and snacks from the earth's nether regions. So we sat down with Jordan Casner (@jordancasner on all paltforms) on a Tuesday morning and consumed that candy. These are the results.

 RiaW 2.32 - Water Balloon Fights #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:20:11

We caught one of our last remaining sunny days and used it for the violent childhood classic, the water balloon fight. Anthony and I embarked on a woodland balloon rumble, surrounded by his extended family. It was a blast! But that's not all! Ezra had a separate water balloon fight with his whole family, so we chat with him and his five-year-old son about their splashy adventure.

 RiaW 2.31 - Baseball Game #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 23:35

I was traveling for comedy in LA this week so I took the opportunity to fulfill another Meat Buddy request and go to a baseball game! Bri (@bripruett) and I recorded a live mini-episode while watching the New York Yankees taking on the Los Angeles Dodgers. It's kindof a weird one so let us know what you think and of course, no refunds!

 RiaW 2.30 - Drive-in Movies #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:12:36

It's our first ever sponsored Summer of Fun episode. Meat Buddy TJ asked us to take in a movie car-style. Anthony and I went to the pop-up drive-in in Portland and watched Little Shop of Horrors while Ezra... did his best. Sponsor TJ does a web show where he reviews movies along with his whole family. It's really charming. Watch a review below and throw them a subscribe. They really want to get to 100 subs, so please help them out. http://bit.ly/moviefamily

 RiaW 2.29 - Dave and Busters #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:09:46

One of the most popular suggestions for the Summer Of Fun was Chuck E Cheese, but we couldn't go there because we didn't have a kid and it seemed weird to borrow one. So we went for a slightly more upscale adventure turning money into worthless tickets: Dave & Busters. Will it hold up? Or will we be beaten down by all the giant iPhone games? On this episode Alex Falcone (@alex_falcone) Anthony Lopez Andrew Sleighter (@andrewsleighter) Kirsten Kuppenbender (@kupptastic)

 RiaW 2.28 - Summer Beverages #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:20:59

Nothing is more important to power your summer of fun than staying hydrated. So we went back through all our favorite nostalgic beverages, mostly red sugar water, to see how they held up. And then we pitted them against each other to determine the official beverage of summer. The answer won't surprise you at all! On This Episode Alex Falcone (@alex_falcone) Anthony Lopez Ezra Fox Sarah Hatheway (@sarahhatheway)

 RiaW 2.2 – Public Pools #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:05:11

What’s more summer than the smell of chlorine and falling asleep in the car while your wet suit ruins the upholstery? But hanging out at the pool feels decidedly more creepy without a kid present. Does it hold up for adults? Find out! Featuring Alex Falcone Anthony Lopez Elena C. Hayden (@elenasabetch on Insta) Tiffany McGuire (@tiffanynogood on Twitter)

 RiaW 2.26 - Laser Tag #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 57:57

Another classic of my teenage years was laser tag. I spent many a party with a wrist band on going game-after-game at Qzar in Reno. But will it hold up for adults? And can we beat the local kids? Find out!

 RiaW 2.25 - Pinball #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:35:10

I spent a lot of time in arcades as a kid, but I was never much for crises of time or the dancing revolutions. I loved the clanging physicality of pinball. But in a world with a million games to play, does it hold up? We brought in nationally ranked tournament pinball player, founding member of Chicago's fabled squad Extra Ballsy, and longtime guest Nick Delehanty to talk about the silver ball.

 RiaW 2.24 - Miniature Golf #SummerOfFun | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:13:22

We can all agree that full sized golf is lame. It's a giant business meeting ruining a perfectly good public park. But miniature golf is brilliant, it's got tiny windmills and minimal walking. At least that's what I thought as a kid. But has my opinion changed now that I'm all growed up? Find out!
