Needless to Say...

Tragically Hip

Brad is down to one good leg. Craig makes a bold move to steal his friend's wife. Matt mentors a bright young worker. Dave wipes himself with a company-branded shirt. And Fetish Pee John sits in to make sense of it all. To newcomers, this doesn't add up. To regulars, it's another typical week of Needless to Say...

Total Eclipse of the Shart

No matter how hard they fight it, the guys simply can't shake the fact that bathroom issues make up a good ... ahem ... chunk of their free time. So, this week they lean into it. Sure, they also discuss summer movies, great speeches, and even a little bit of "Obi-Wan Kenobi." But make no mistake, this one is pretty gross. And it's pretty damn funny, too.

Terminal Viscosity

It's Dave's birthday! So the other three guys pretended to ignore that meaningless event by discussing anything more interesting. Brad's zero luck Zoom skills? Check. Matt's smoky skank of a customer? Check. Craig's useless U-Haul neighbors? Check. THEN, they roasted him.
Focused, it's not. Funny? Definitely. 

AAA or Chapstick

This week, the guys welcomed their buddy Corey (and welcomed back Raeann) to take a deep dive into nothing at all. Whether it's Craig playing designated driver, Dave getting a designated divorce lawyer, or Matt designating EVERYONE for assignment, this one covers a lot of bases. Then they learn that Corey is better than all of them, in every possible way. 

Creamy Italian

Dave had an existential crisis. Craig mocked a man in peril. Matt needed an exorcist to help his child. And Brad wants to fight his neighbor's chickens. Then they all take a few minutes to fantasize about being replacement rock stars. So, obviously, they named it "Creamy Italian" ...

Granite Boner

The guys are known for their subtlety, which is why they chose this name for the episode. It makes sense, though, since they carved out a conversation about Matt's lack of grace, Dave's lack of motor skills, Brad's lack of decent neighbors, and Craig's lack of self-awareness about his addiction to technology...

JR’s Travel Lane

This week, the guys celebrate Cinco de Mayo and Mother's Day by discussing trash. Trailer trash, TV wife trash, Rhode Island club trash, and adults who treat children like trash. Also, Craig uses a big word, Matt invents a new word, and Brad mispronounces an easy word. This episode has something for everyone... even those who identify as trash.

Blood In, Blood Out

This week, the guys decided to fly without a parachute, tossing aside the outline for a lighthearted discussion of how we bludgeoned our friends with BB guns, logs, rocks, open-field tackles, and homemade zip lines. Also, they realize Craig is making his iPhone dumber, Criss Angel has no place at the NFL Draft, and Brach's shouldn't be making taco-flavored jelly beans. 

Hot Tub, Cold Shoulder

Dave is missing! But if you have an aerial view of Rhode Island, it won't take long to find him happily marinating in tainted chlorine. While he was "bonding with his kids" from the comforts of his new hot tub, Brad, Matt and Craig soldiered on, discussing things like Portuguese stone masonry, overpriced comedy, random drug testing, and synthetic fetish pee. 
Yeah, we may all need a chlorine bath after this one...
 

Wipe Right

For years, the guys have made bathroom humor a part of the show. But they've always tried to be better. This week, they stopped trying. Once again, when they thought the tape stopped rolling, the guys had a side conversation about the worst parts of poop. And it turned out WAY better than what they had planned in the first place. So, lower your expectations, ease into it, and answer nature's call. 

The Legend of Tom

This week, the guys go back to the skull. And it unearthed some stories they may not have been ready to handle. Weird sex, moist jousting, doggy diazepam, and -- ahem -- "questionable" roommates, it's all in the agenda. (Hint: The name of the episode has to do with 3 of the 4 things mentioned above.)

Frostbite Brown

Bold claim -- this is the funniest episode the guys have done in months. From Bruce Willis to Chris Rock to "Everest" to a litany of "what if?" scenarios, nothing is off the table this time around. And to top it off, Dave is now known as "Blachem." So call him that whenever you can. 

Hot Beverages of Color

One week after an episode that's better left in the rear view, the guys look back at events that probably should have come with apologies. Then, a full 48 hours before Will Smith couldn't handle Chris Rock, they revisited one of their favorite topics -- the self-appointed joke police. 
(The alopecia discussion will come soon... that's a promise.)
 

Kid Chucks

For nearly five years, the guys of NTS have claimed "nothing is off limits." And they've occasionally danced around touchy subjects in the name of humor. But this week, they may have finally crossed those lines. In fact, the conversation got so dark, that they had to skip all of the other topics they had planned. It's a short episode, and when you hear the last 20 minutes, you'll know why. Please try not to think less of us... if that's even possible.

A Hard Dave’s Night

The guys close out their episode takeovers with Dave... the show's classiest act. He may not be a felon, or a good husband, or even a passable mammal. But that still puts him light years ahead of the other three. So, for his episode, the guys honor his wishes and get into some introspection and self-awareness. If that's not your thing there's also penis jokes and bad friendship. 

Three Out of Four Ain’t Brad

It's the third week of our episode takeovers, and it's Brad's turn to control the narrative. Except that this is Needless to Say, so the other guys talk a lot more than the man of the hour. Still, they all manage to share their thoughts  on listener emails, "what if?" scenarios, porn, and memory foam road hazards. 

Matt’s Hysteria

Fans of the show's newest member, buckle up, because this week is Matt's turn to run NTS. Which means, in addition to spewing his own bile, Dave rages about dishes, Craig rages about his failing health, while Brad ragingly steals a Jeff Foxworthy joke AND exacts wet vengeance on the soundboard. Because you can't bottle up pure rage, they guys spend nearly 2.5 hours placating Matt's every whim. Long Islanders will love it, and you might, too. 

No Craig to Stand On

After weeks of randomness, the guys turned to Craig for some focus. But considering he has trouble even spelling "outline" the guys managed to decipher a few themes during the noise. Gambling. Gullibility. Christian lies. Personalized movie names. Embroidered pillows. For one week only, it's all on the table, and all from the mind of the mindless.

I Can’t Believe It’s Nut Butter

This week, the guys conclude their trilogy of randomness with more word association, a throwback roundup topic, and some typically weird weeks in review. Translated, this means a discussion of Jehovah's Witnesses, the mafia, Dave Chappelle, and nut butter. Not necessarily in that order.

Straight Talk

Since Matt joined the show, listeners have told us, "Let Matt talk more!" If you're one of them, boy do we have a revealing episode for you. From the "Pam and Tommy" biopic, to Brad's grope-happy doctor, to Dave's aerated underwear, Matt has an awful lot of long, hard revelations to share. 
The guys also introduce a new segment, which Matt takes over completely. Have at it!
