Episode 18 - Warped Tour, Fireworks & TOP 5 Welcome to Walmart Intros

Send us a text

Remember that perfect summer day when you and your friends did something totally reckless but incredibly fun? That's exactly the nostalgic energy we tap into on our latest podcast episode. 

We kick things off with Eric's adventures at Warped Tour, the legendary music festival that packed 80-100 bands into parking lots across America for the bargain price of $40. Picture this: Multiple stages featuring names like Fallout Boy, My Chemical Romance, The Offspring, and Avenged Sevenfold while dirt bikers and BMX riders performed tricks between sets. Eric shares his misadventures, including getting pegged in the head with a full bottle of Cherry Coke during My Chemical Romance and watching his friend Danny pass out from heat exhaustion—only to discover the sweet perks of the medical tent (free chips, ice packs, and a reclining chair with fans).

Then Greg takes us to his childhood summers in Missouri, where he and his cousins would wage miniature wars with GI Joe action figures. Unlike the tame fireworks available in Michigan (just "Fizzies and Sparklers"), Missouri offered serious pyrotechnics perfect for blowing apart action figures in spectacular fashion. These backyard battles highlight that special brand of destructive creativity that defined childhood before the digital age took over.

The hardest laughs come when we dive into our "Top Five Best/Worst Walmart Greeter Introductions." From inappropriately personal revelations to brutally specific customer observations, we imagine the most outrageous things a greeter could say before "Welcome to Walmart." These range from hilariously uncomfortable ("I once ate three vaginas at the same time. Welcome to Walmart") to painfully specific ("Slim-Fast aisle 70. We put it in the back so your ass has to walk there. Welcome to Walmart").
