This week, the guys unveil their long-awaited list of the best things they've watched/read/played/ate/etc. over the first six months of 2024. Josh and Evan have some great stuff to recommend, but what will the guys think of each other's picks? Are there any overlap picks that made both lists? How about some surprise entries and some interesting cat…

This week, the guys are getting back to a topic from last week after getting together over the weekend. Evan recently got something that has made life easier, so it led to a discussion about what things the guys, or people in general, can buy to make things a little better. That said, does easier always equal better? Maybe with things like doing di…

This week, the guys talk about things that make their life easier and things that make their life harder, or at least more embarrassing. Specifically, Evan made a purchase that has made his life better, but he also made an embarrassing blunder, the likes of which he's never done, that could haunt him forever. The guys don't get to dive into their t…

This week, the guys open up about clothes, specifically their clothing choices, preferences, and thoughts. According to Evan, Josh had a bit of a 'dad' look on their Zoom call, but Josh described his style as "Southern preppy," whatever that means. Listen in to hear how many times the guys re-wear clothes before they get too funky, how their day-to…

This week, the guys talk about planning things after some proposed plans have yet to be put in place. Evan has had a little trouble making plans recently, and one of those plans involves hanging with Josh. Fortunately, they're able to hash things out, and ultimately, planning is easier if you just go for it. The guys also talk about how friendship …

This week, for just the second time in the history of the LIF podcast, a voice other than Josh and Evan joins the airwaves. A very special guest starts the episode with a fun story about some camping shenanigans involving two long-time listeners, a compromising position, and a storm. The guys have a few thoughts on how they would've handled the sam…

This week, both Josh and Evan had some frustrations to deal with. Evan had to deal with some annoying insurance runaround while also enduring one of the worst movie-going experiences he can remember. Does a theater full of coughing people, noisy kids, and spilled drinks mixed with a mediocre movie add up to a good time? Maybe it's part of the reaso…

This week, Evan has some tales to tell! After notching some "worst ever" holidays over the last couple of years, his bad luck might have finally struck Mother's Day. Listen in to discover what cat and car-based madness might've messed up the day and how things are going. We bet you'll never guess what two unfortunate things Evan had in the trunk of…

This week, the guys make their 265th remake of the first episode of the podcast because their big-money producers won't let them veer off of the money-making formula. Or at least that's one way to think of these episodes, especially after Evan has been noticing more and more remakes, reboots, and sequels of movies. Can original content break throug…

This week, the guys start off by talking about pickleball, a pastime taken up by both Josh and Evan, along with the rest of the world. Josh might be so into pickleball that he's considering becoming an official retailer, while Evan is pretty confident in his ability to hang with the best of them on the court. Along with their possible pickleball co…

This week, the guys talk a lot about buying things on eBay and Facebook Marketplace. The conversation stems some from purchases that Evan has been making, but Josh is joining in on the fun, too! What is it like to lose out on a bidding war at the last second? Is Mercari taking too much of your money? Will the guys ever sell anything on these platfo…

This week, the guys have a lot to talk about after a busy week off! The highlight and main reason of/for the break is that Josh got to check a significant thing off of his bucket list: attending the Masters. The guys talk through what the experience was like, including breaking down stats from their insane merch store, attendance/viewership numbers…

This week, Evan had a little too much alone time on his hands during a storm that was projected to be pretty bad. He spent his time prepping for a tornado that never came, packing up nearly everything of value in his apartment and moving it to the basement. The guys talk about what things made the cut, whether that was a good idea, and how they mig…

This week, the guys talk about how Josh has been stepping it up lately. His goal has been to hit 10,000 steps a day, and so far, he's stuck to it for almost a month! Is it reasonable to have something like that in your life, or are there better things to do with your time? The guys share their thoughts on the concept and what other doors it might o…

This week, the guys discuss their history with surprise parties. After Evan just attended what could have been his first one, they consider whether they'd rather be the surpriser or the suprisee and what a surprise party should be. With the guys recording during Josh's lunch break, the guys also talk about working hours, especially during a busy we…

This week, the guys are back in their usual places! Evan made it back from the land down under, Florida, and he has some fun things to recap. He spent some time bounding along the beach finding dead stuff before checking out other nature places for live things. His travels back included a nifty, never-before-seen travel move, for Evan, at least, bu…

This week, Evan is recording from Florida! So, please pardon any background noise from alligators and hurricanes; he's just trying to get by out here. The new location and what he's been up to are worth discussing, but his travel travesties take top billing! How long was he delayed? Did he have to walk to his Airbnb? How many "She-Hulk" episodes di…

This week, the guys talk a lot about food. Whether it's a bushel of burritos, a weekday for wine, a tale of lobster, or the history of a heifer, the guys have plenty of tasty things to discuss. Do you care to know what your dinner's life was like or whether your burger had a name? How about staring down the next thing you're gonna take a bite out o…

This week, the guys have lived two very different lives since last recording. One of them has had a crazy work schedule while being stuck alone with no heat, while the other one has been galavanting it up, hanging with homies, and drinking alcohol. Care to guess which one is which? Josh gives some bourbon breakdown before the boys get extra bougie …

This week, the guys are once again joined by a jingly, chaotic, and distracting guest who's ultimately just a big wiener. Diving into a few different topics, Josh and Evan discuss why people want to get Evan to do things like drink coffee or bourbon. Is there a general sense that people want to get others to be like them, or does it depend on the s…

This week, the guys are warming up to their warm weather while getting weird messages from the walls. Evan went full Tomb Raider and dug into the walls while eating at a restaurant, and low and behold, he found something! Find out what it was, what Josh would've done in the situation, and whether you should start searching for treasure. After discu…

This week, the guys take a bite out of a big topic: fast food! Evan, like usual, has been coming up with innovative "sticking it to the man" methods and is excited to share them with others. However, his time might be running short, given the rising bean prices! Josh gives his two cents about his fast food preferences and more, and the guys have pl…

This week, Evan is coming in hot and sad at the same time after Amazon has been screwing him over. He had a horrible customer service experience just seconds before this episode, so it's time to air some grievances! Will Jeff Bezos make things right and send him and others approximately $534, or will Amazon keep bouncing Evan between calls and coun…

This week, the guys kick off the second quarter of the Life is Funny podcast with some fun conversations and stories. Both Josh and Evan have a very first-world problem of not getting birthday cards in the mail, and the postal service is also giving the guys a couple of other hiccups. Speaking of hiccups, Evan has been on an up-and-down rollercoast…

This week, the guys celebrate being one-fourth of the way to 1,000 podcast episodes! Even though they're only a quarter of the way to 1k, being over five years in is a pretty cool feat. Evan has some fun 'would you rather?' questions that revolve around the podcast, and both Josh and Evan have some fun discussions and opinions. For example, who wou…

This week, the guys ring in the new year by talking about the holiday season. After missing a week of recording between Christmas and New Year's, they have quite a bit to discuss. Both Josh and Evan are fortunate to have multiple places to visit during the holidays, but that makes for a busy time that could probably be a little more streamlined and…

This week, the guys continue their tradition of letting you know some of the best things they've watched, listened to, played, done, and more this year! After breaking down their first halves back in the summer, Josh and Evan both have some exciting additions over the second half of 2023. Before reviewing the things you need to check out, the guys …

This week, the guys have a ton to talk about after an extended gap between recordings. Evan had a jam-packed week+, and he's been excited to share the happs with Josh and you all! Spotify and others released the yearly 'Wrapped'/recap, and while Evan is a "baddie" who sails on a Young Gravy boat, LIF listeners are a special group that gets stats of…

This week, the guys have plenty to talk about after an eventful Thanksgiving week. Evan was fortunate to avoid a repeat of his worst-ever Thanksgiving from a couple of years ago, but Josh had a holiday to forget, thanks to a Covid contraction. While discussing present-day health and safety, they reminisce about past accidents. Driving can pose its …

This week, Evan had a hilarious mishap that resulted in him getting severely stuck by 'The Man.' Well, hilarious to Josh, at least! Listen in to help yourself avoid the same sticky fate. The guys also talk about how to make the best of Evan's mistake, working out for the first time in forever, some updates to the podcast, and more. Stay tuned for s…

This week, the guys get a head start on the Thanksgiving conversations. Maybe they're just trying to fight back against the early onset of the Christmas season, or maybe Evan has put a little too much thought into what a well-done wiener dog would taste like. Who knows! What's for sure is that some fun conversations pop up, including some facts abo…

This week, the guys are back after one of their longest breaks in a while! Josh galavanted across the country, while Evan had to stick it to the man and compile puns during the week off. The guys start getting back into the groove by talking about Portland and the surrounding Oregon area, but they start getting into some hard-hitting topics when th…

This week, the guys get caught up after they both had busy weekends. Josh headed west to the Windy City, while Evan took a quick trip home and worked some more. Josh's week was fun and eventful, and it produced a couple of stories like another rousing bourbon lottery and an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction. After breaking down the fun times and exp…

This week, the guys embrace the October/fall/spooky time of year. Evan ate SIX different kinds of pie in one day and has gotten into Friday the 13th form by watching scary movies and shows. However, Josh isn't all aboard the horror train, and he's talking about cream pies that nobody(?) knows about. So, should October be Spooky Season, or is it all…

This week, the guys devote some big time to small talk. Josh and Evan dive right in, discussing things little white lies, exaggerated stories, annoying phrases, name dropping, workplace interactions, and more! Find out if they've been blowing smoke for 240 episodes, or if they know a thing or two about little conversation. The guys also eventually …

This week, the guys talk about the impact of dairy on their lives. Both Josh and Evan grew up guzzling milk without many consequences, but is the dairy-heavy diet coming back to bite one or both of them in the butt (figuratively and literally)? Find out who feels betrayed by ice cream, including Wendy's nasty new pumpkin spice Frosty. The guys also…

This week, the guys get a little rowdy and raunchy as they talk about not half-assing the podcast. In fact, they think they do a good job of whole-assing the podcast, and hope you agree! Whether it's recording a podcast, attending a Bachelor watch party, leaving a movie theater, or anything else, there's always a bit to commit to. Josh and Evan als…

This week, the guys are running behind in more ways than one as they're recording a few days and a few minutes late. Josh opens with some talk about bourbon hunting and baseball watching, including experiencing one of the rowdiest, most obnoxious fans he's ever seen. Then, Evan has to come clean about even MORE shoe purchases, including a story abo…

This week, the guys talk about what it would be like to get the zoomies as a humie, aka a human. What would the workplace look like? Would you rather everyone get the zoomies at once, or have it be totally random? Josh and Evan are here to answer the tough questions. The guys also talk about working out at work and elsewhere, whether to commit to a…

This week, the guys talk about all sorts of things that are mostly first-world problems. Evan had to make an old-school wire transfer to get his bank to give him his money, and it led to talks about whether digital money is the best option. Additionally, Josh explains "Girl Math" and how cash might not be down and out just yet. The guys also discus…

This week, the guys are getting a smidge sentimental about siblings. Well, at least Evan is after a fantastic weekend of hanging out with his little sister, and it just so happened that Josh hung out with his little brother at the same time. So, what's the big deal? Doesn't everyone have a good relationship with their siblings? The guys talk about …

This week, Evan is thrilled to share some tremendous thrifting treasures. The stars aligned after accidentally ending up at Goodwill at the start of a 50% off sale, and, four trips later, he wound up with some amazing finds. From some old Yugioh cards to some shoes and clothes, all the way to a pricey pantomiming parrot, Evan is all aboard the thri…

This week, the guys are having a hard time as work, life, and more has them always turned on. It's hard when you're getting turned on at work, dinner, outings with friends, and who knows where else, so they've gotta talk it out to figure out how to relieve the load and avoid having a bad experience rub off on other aspects of life. Evan knows he's …

This week, the guys bust out their Masters debating skills after Josh's luck prevailed for the first time in the exclusive Masters ticket lottery. It could very well be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Josh, and is something he's been waiting years for, so needless to say he's pumped. But, that gets Evan thinking about what big things Josh woul…

This week, the guys have a whole lot to recap after missing a week of recording. Since the last episode, Evan has travelled to a different country and started a job, a "pro" wrestling experience might open a new door for the podcast, and the best week of the year, Shark Week, has come and gone! Would Evan recommend Niagara Falls? Are the guys being…

This week, the guys talk extensively about an idea that Evan heard about from a YouTube video: living (very) close to your friends. Given that Josh and Evan are about as close as can be, and were over the weekend, would they be down to live five minutes away from each other and other homies? Or are there too many pitfalls that could ruin things? Se…

This week, Josh and Evan have a lot of catching up to do after an extended break between episodes. Josh's favorite holiday exploded onto the scene since last recording, but Independence Day didn't go how either of the guys thought it would. Between Evan's delayed fireworks and Josh's dog's early explosions, it wasn't the greatest of 4th's. But, Eva…

This week, the guys dive head first into all sorts of things as they get ready for Josh's favorite holiday: The 4th of July! Before they celebrate America's birthday, they got up to some fun things over the weekend. Josh went all over the place, including to see Evan's favorite female country singer, while Evan made a profitable, one-of-a-kind thri…

This week, Evan bought a LOT of avocados! With yet another epic "sticking it to the man" move, he'll be eating guacamole every day for the foreseeable future. In other news, Josh might start building his first house soon, and Evan took a trip back to Bloomington. While eating a progressive lunch, a question came up about what things you could do a …

This week, after a false start to the recording, the guys continue their tradition of reviewing their favorite content. The first half of 2023 hasn't necessarily produced as many bangers as years past, but there are still plenty of good things that both Josh and Evan have watched, read, played, etc. Did Josh already watch his favorite thing of the …
