    Episode 71: Runaway
    Feb 11 2026
    This week turns into a long, winding debate about adulthood, responsibility, and the very real urge to disappear for a few days without explaining yourself. We talk surviving ice storms, power grid scare emails, snow that refuses to melt, and learning way too much about all-wheel drive versus four-wheel drive. From homemade marshmallow experiments and birthday gifts gone right to childhood dream jobs, restaurant fantasies, bagel debates, and whether cats or dogs are actually smarter, the bucket pulls us through nostalgia, petty arguments, and surprisingly honest moments. We wrap it all up by normalizing the idea that every adult deserves one fully sanctioned “runaway week” every few years.

    Episode 70: Tangled
    Feb 4 2026
    This week goes completely off the rails as we bounce between nostalgia regrets, physical media we should’ve never gotten rid of, and the strange comfort of owning things you don’t actually use. We spiral into ride anxiety, theme park logic, why some attractions feel riskier than advertised, and how adulthood turns fun into a series of internal negotiations. Along the way we unpack car trouble paranoia, sibling interruptions, voice-to-text chaos, everyday annoyances that snowball into full conversations, and the realization that most problems start small and get worse when you talk about them too long. Nonstop detours and a lot of confident opinions about things that truly don’t matter. Classic Bucket Boys.

    Episode 69: Receipts
    Jan 28 2026
    This week spirals out of a simple inconvenience and turns into a full breakdown of modern life. We get into rental car confusion, mileage anxiety, customer service limbo, and the quiet rage of being told to “just check back later.” From gas station etiquette and receipt judgment to pizza arguments, tired jokes everyone thinks they invented, and phrases that should’ve been retired years ago, we unpack how small interactions somehow carry way too much emotional weight. Petty frustrations, accidental lessons, and a lot of thinking about things that truly don’t matter. Classic Bucket Boys.
