Ep. 125: Treat Yo Self — In Beverly Hills!

Listen to “Treat Yo Self — In Beverly Hills!” on Spreaker.

As Leslie and Ron are teaming up against Gryzzl, they learn Dennis Feinstein has bought JJ’s Diner. Uh-oh. Will they make a difference before Feinstein releases “The Hounds” on them?

Meanwhile, Tom and Donna are enjoying Treat Yourself 2017 — in Beverly Hills! And it just might encourage Tom to finally ask out Lucy. Just go for it, you wimp!

Plus, can you name all the singers from Lady Marmalade? We’re sure trying to. And we’re chatting times we’ve spun out while driving, revisiting our outlandish Super Bowl picks, and reminiscing over the time U2’s album came on all Apple products. Simpler times, you know?

Speaking of simpler times, do you check a bag when you travel? It’s a classic debate.

By the way, here’s the 2Gether video we chat about:

Ep. 124: Biden the Rails

Listen to “Biden the Rails” on Spreaker.

Gryzzl is using data mining to get inside people’s heads and provide them with all the information they would ever find useful. Huh, sounds vaguely familiar, doesn’t it?

Anyway, this is a fantastic episode with just about every character showing their best characteristics. Leslie and Ben try to find a way to overtake Gryzzl, and they’re starting to get some help from their old crew. Ron cracks a funny joke about vegetables. Johnny Karate makes another appearance. Craig lists a lot of things he likes. The community is on Leslie’s side during a town hall. That’s super chill!

Plus, Sean shares his go-to McDonald’s order (both while sober and drunk), we break down some classic wine bottle designs, the best and worst movie premieres we’ve ever been to, and the beauty of exploring the world through the window of an Amtrak train.

We also recorded this before the Super Bowl, so you can hear some wildly incorrect predictions, such as which quarterback will throw a touchdown pass to himself and what color Gatorade will be poured on the winning coach.

Ep. 122: It’s F*cking Milk

Listen to “It's F*cking Milk” on Spreaker.

Leslie and Ron are each holding press conferences to promote their bids for land. Ron, Tom, and Donna have Anabel Porter from Bloosh, and Leslie has…a descendant of William Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United States. What a standoff!

Meanwhile, Terry has become a notary—“No, Terry!”—and is delighting in every minute of it. Ben has to continually get things signed, and Andy and April try to figure out what the latter is good at so she can turn it into her career.

Plus, putting Texas Roadhouse butter onto things besides their rolls, the Harlem Shake, spoiling movies with twist endings before they happen, and Sean has a grudge from five years ago that still grinds his gears.

Ep. 108: Peas Be Kind to Others

Parks n Wrecked Podcast Logo

Listen to “Peas Be Kind to Others” on Spreaker.

Hope you’re not too chard-headed this episode because we’re going to the farmers market! There’s an UNCOMFORTABLE amount of chard, including in shot form. Leslie and Ben are in the midst of a government spat with each other, all of Ron’s music is in a rectangle, and Donna and Tom host a whine and cheese club. Peas be kind to others, y’all.

Meanwhile, Andy and April introduce us to the magic of Johnny Karate, and Chris irritates Ann with how on top of everything he is.

Plus, mnemonic devices to remember directions, using huge headphones to block out people from talking or singing, and there’s drama in the Sean and Haleigh’s bowling league.

Finally, Sean had the bright idea to record this episode during a Cowboys game, and his team decided to get themselves down 20-0 while we were recording. But on the plus side, they ended up winning, so Sean got much happier than he was during this episode!

Ep. 84: This is Garbage

Parks n Wrecked Logo - A podcast about Parks and Rec

Listen to “This is Garbage” on Spreaker.

We may be social distancing, but we’re not letting that get us down! And perhaps it’s fitting that the world is knee-deep in garbage, because we’re covering the episode “Women in Garbage” today. Sean is far away and sounds a bit like he’s in a well, but we’re doing our best with what we can, people.

For some reason, Ron once again has to play babysitter for his girlfriend, Diane, Warrior Princess. She can’t seem to find adequate care for her children! Luckily, Ron’s got Ann on his side, and she’s terrible at watching kids, too. Meanwhile, Leslie and April are picking up garbage to show they’re just as proficient as men when it comes to tackling sanitation needs. Oh, and Andy and Ben are trying to teach Tom how to play basketball. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t go well.

Plus, frustration with the government, dumb people that blatantly ignore useful rules, and we provide some activities you can do while practicing social distancing. And Haleigh gets SUPER heated during her Top 5. Take a listen!
