Send us a text What if your backyard held forgotten pieces of American history? Today’s guest is Nicholas Pupera, a lifelong bottle digger and archaeologist from Gonzales, Louisiana who has spent over two decades unearthing relics buried beneath Louisiana soil. What began as a childhood passion has evolved into a mission to preserve the past before development buries it forever. Nick joins us to offer a glimpse into the fascinating world of archaeology, where old outhouses and water wells become unexpected treasure troves. He shares what these artifacts reveal about everyday lives long gone, and why that matters. Along the way, he reflects on hard-earned lessons, including a key takeaway: don’t let greed ruin the joy. For Nick, it’s never been about profit, it’s about saving history and keeping the lost stories of the past alive. Here’s what we discuss in this episode: 🗺️ Using maps and trust to find dig sites in New Orleans 🦷 How he found 18th-century dentures 💡 The ethics and etiquette of archaeology 🧭 Why “one man’s trash” reveals so much more than we think Injured?

Send us a text What began as a marriage of harmony and bliss between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk has spectacularly unraveled on social media in recent weeks. But is this just a viral feud, or something more strategic? In this episode, David and Brad dive into the bizarre, headline-grabbing spat and explore whether behind the chaos and memes lies a calculated move. Could this be misdirection, a distraction, or even a business deal in disguise? The speculation runs deep as they follow the money, question the motives, and consider what’s really at play between two of the world’s most powerful figures. With Tesla stock taking a massive hit, is Musk playing 4D chess with public opinion? Is Trump distracting from bigger goals? The guys unpack the timing, the financial consequences, and the potential long-game both figures might be playing. What starts as digital drama could just be the setup for a powerful handshake behind closed doors. Here’s what we discuss in this episode: 💥 The social media feud that shook the internet 📉 How Tesla’s stock crash may have triggered the drama 🔁 Is Trump helping Musk… by hating him? 💼 Business deal or public breakdown? 🕵️♂️ Brad’s Conspiracy Theories Injured?

Send us a text Let’s talk about one of the wildest stories to hit New Orleans in years. In this episode, David reunites with co-host Brad to dissect the recent escape of 10 inmates from the Orleans Parish prison, a situation that’s part true crime, part systemic failure, and part dark comedy. They dive into how the escape happened (spoiler: through a bathroom wall and across I-10) and why it took over seven hours to even notice the prisoners were missing. What does this say about the staffing, technology, and leadership failures inside the jail? There’s a lot to weigh in on because there’s been a lot of political finger-pointing that’s followed. Here’s what we discuss in this episode: 🚨 10 prisoners escaped, here’s how they pulled it off 📹 900 cameras, but no one was watching? ⏰ 7.5 hours before anyone noticed 💰 The Costs of a Manhunt ⚖️ A scathing critique of local leadership Injured?

With over 30 million employees affected, the implications are vast for both employers and workers. Join us for an in-depth discussion on the legal, business, and philosophical perspectives of noncompetes, including the potential constitutional challenges and what this means for the future of employment contracts.

Send us a text In today's rapidly evolving media landscape, the way we consume news is undergoing a significant transformation. Gone are the days when traditional media outlets like CNN and Fox News were the primary sources of information. Now, social media influencers are stepping into the spotlight, reshaping how we receive and perceive news.

Drawing on recent findings from Pew Research, they reflect on the growing trend of Americans turning to social media influencers for news, particularly among younger generations. With 20% of adults and a staggering 37% of those under 30 getting their news from these influencers, the question arises: What does this mean for traditional media? Is this shift a reflection of a growing distrust in legacy news outlets, or is it simply a natural progression in the digital age?

Send us a text A recent study revealed that many Gen Z graduates are unprepared for job interviews, struggling with eye contact, appropriate dress, and even bringing parents to interviews. These behaviors are causing employers to hesitate in hiring younger candidates. So what’s to blame? Brad and David discuss how social media, particularly platforms like TikTok, has impacted Gen Z's social skills and mental health, earning them the label the ‘loneliest generation.’ The spread of misinformation on social media has also affected our ability to think critically in many scenarios, which is something that we also feel strongly about. We also want to talk about ways to help our children avoid these common pitfalls and social challenges facing many Gen Z young adults. The big hurdle that many parents face is trying to limit social media usage but it’s essential for getting more accustomed to face-to-face interactions, which is very important for improving long-term social abilities.
