Text us here! Hersh, it has been a while since we heard from our guest today and let's just go ahead and say, he took a big "W" in the end, but before that happened we had a great discussion with the boys about several wonderful topics including: my stellar parenting skills and speaking before thinking. Our very own Deacon Dustin contributed the song for this week and we couldn't figure out whether we liked the premise or not. When our guest, the former fan Bryce, showed up, he threw in some val...

Text us here! Hersh, we have had a plethora (big word for abuncha) disasters when it comes to the ministry of low expectations but today may have taken the cake (an old proverb that describes what we're saying here today). We recorded 30 mins of the most flawless audio/video we may have ever recorded and wasn't recording at all... It was the same as if we were 4 friends (loose term) talking on the speaker phone to an old friend and none of it was captured... So, we started over but that didn't h...

Text us here! Hershall, all I can say is buckle up for this one... We went longer than normal but there was no good stopping place. The competition was palpable (big word for felt) in studio 18. Speaking of felt, that's exactly what was brought up during a long rant about being insured by our Deacon Dustin... yeah, roofing felt! I think that is the first time tha was been discussed on the trash-cast. We enjoyed a new segment of wrong answers called "Riffin' on the Road" that has promises of gain...

Text us here! Hersh, it was mighty good to hear your voice on the program today. We always enjoy hearing from you but today you came on the show for a specific purpose. We wanted give a wonderful invitation to you and all of the listeners to come to the youth camp that we all take part in... You can see for yourself here: https://www.centralokyc.org/ what we're talking about. This year we decided to add some special Pod'N Me promotions to camp. The details are in this episode and prepare to be w...

Text us here! Hershall, I hope the title doesn't throw you off but we did it... I will let you listen to the program to find out exactly what IT is. I think you will be amazed at what and where we have been. All thanks to our great patrons on Patreon we were able to pull off the surprise of the century. It is a historic day here on Pod'N Me. We are just a few days past our 5th anniversary and we heard a familiar voice today. After getting that NEWs, we had a serious conversation about being desp...

Text us here! Hershall, here we are again for the final day of our campmeeting series for 2025. I have greatly enjoyed having these pastors, Bro. Jon Brock, Bro. Davin Burnett and Bro. Jon Isaacs in studio to talk about how Christ should be reflected in all of our lives and that even goes for every relationship that we enjoy. We continued our discussion in Ephesians on the view that Paul gave us of how we treat one another now that we are in Christ. You can also watch this episode on our YouTube...

Text us here! Hershall, we're back again... Pastors Isaacs, Brock, and Burnett. We discussed Ephesians 4 on the five-fold ministry of the church and the goal of the ministry is to bring us to the body of Christ to a place of Unity, Diversity and Holy living. We had a great, challenging discussion. We have one more day of our camp meeting and that is tomorrow. Once again, you can view this episode for free on our YouTube page. God Bless & we'll be back tomorrow. Enjoy! Support the show Connec...

Text us here! Hershall, it's that time of year again. It is Campmeeting week and we have some repeat guests. Three pastor friends who were here last fall for the pastoral episodes and we've combined that idea with our campmeeting week. Rev. Jon Isaacs, Rev. Jon Brock & Rev. Davin Burnett came here to discuss the need for personal disciplines in the ministry. It really is a conversation that every believer can benefit from. If you'd like to see the video of this recording, check out our YouTu...

Text us here! Hershall, you read it correctly, we are really having an episode of Pod'N Me dedicated to wedding planning... We talked some things weddings today button all. We have to talk about some other stuff in the process but the weeding conversation was for good reason. One of our own, ole Gen Z Boy got a fiancé (big word for espousal), so we felt it necessary to discuss weddings. We even got a video of the episode that you can see for a small fee on our support link (the one in the show d...

Text us here! Hershall, I know that the title seems to not go together at all, but what does go together in this world? Even here on the trash-cast it seems like we can seamlessly make thing flow together... or not. The boys (Songleader Brad, Deacon Dustin, and Gen Z Boy Brooks) suggested that we do another lucrative scheme (two big words in a row) to get more money from the podcast. A carnival was brought up and I will let you find out how that was included in the show. Speaking of lucre, we ha...

Text us here! Hersh, it is a privilege for us to be back with you, as always. We had a reluctance on the show today concerning the topic of antique cars. Then we went down memory lane with our song selection which is where the smoke comes in. We also had a wonderful story about Brooks collecting money from our beloved Deacon. All in all it was a wonderful time here on the trash-cast. Take a listen and if you want to see the video of this episode it is available on our Patreon page (touch that "S...

Text us here! Hershall, we are glad to be back with flying colors (an old adage-big word for old saying) and they guys were hitting on all cylinders (another adage) today. Well, that is all but our beloved Deacon, Dustin Wakley. As you know he has made some personal changes over the last almost 5 years that we have been recording these episodes (in a more shall we type, unsettling direction). He was the one that came out hard against animal rights when it pertains to housing and such and then to...

Text us here! Hershall, we had a wild ride today on the podcast... I said we because I (the boss) joined the show toward the end, fresh off of the ER visit we talked about last week. (We record every two weeks so this week's episode actually happened last week. I know it's crazy huh?) The guys started out with a strictly forbidden song and believe me, if I would've been running the program it would've never happened. That started a downward spiral into horrendous songs and that really never got ...

Text us here! Hershall, I am glad you showed up today even though not all of us could make it to church. We did still have four members of the podcast on the program for today and it was.. well, you'll have to listen to get the details. I (the Poderator) was involved in a vehicle collision as I was on my way home on recording day and the good news is I am doing great but, unfortunately, my vehicle didn't fare so well and the guys talk all about it on the show. Of course, they made it a funny and...

Text us here! Hershall, we have a full episode for you today on this trash heap of a show. I can't even recall what all went on today because it feels like I have been editing my entire face off. (that's because we added video that you can experience if you would like by going to Patreon via the "support the show" link in these very show notes) We covered a bunch of stuff today including some gratitude and frustratitudes. We also had a listener trash Gen Z boy's ability to read and we got some m...

Text us here! Hershall, I certainly hope you are doing well out there. We are always glad to have you tag along and listen to the podcast. Today, we had a somewhat serious discussion to which I seamlessly transitioned to and the boys just absolutely ridiculed me over. We talked about the challenge to prove something without going the route through their heart first. It was an interesting discussion. In the mix of conversation we also talked about the recent debacle I had on our debut video episo...

Text us here! Hershall, Here we are per (little word for as) usual with our weekly meeting on the trash-cast. As you have become accustomed to, we bring you some hard-hitting topics mixed in low-hitting humor. Amongst (editor's question: why do we use this word without the "st" at times?) the topics this week are: cordaroy pants, main character-ing, chair moving projects, and we even through in a few names that we've heard people use for a certain kind of saw (weh-weh saw was my favorite). We al...

Text us here! Hershall, here we go again, ending the program smelling sin, Little known in the list of topics, Would be the chance of terrible optics (big seeing word) For the pastor who endorsed some scents, That complicates our confidence.... I'll leave the poetry for later, Hersh. To sum things up, I had a wreck at the end of the episode, for which I am ashamed. We talked about trusting God even when there are questions without answers. We also had some new topics never before talked about he...

Text us here! Hey Hersh, good to be with you again, friend. Today was a good day and a grace filled episode. We talked about that subject from the beginning (or close) and even talked about it at the end... but in between, things got diverse (big word for all kids of). We gave some advice to some new podcasters that wrote in, we had the subject of vaccines mentioned as well as: booster seats, thank-you cards, putty knives, skin stickers and Forest Frunk (the past tense of a singer that Brooks is...

Text us here! Hershall, Happy Birthday!! We were so glad to hear that you made it to 40. What a privilege it was to finally hear your voice again on Pod'N Me. We talked about some stuff today on the trash-cast. Stuff like, yodeling, Sunday School Reports, and may other various stuffs (plural word for stuff). We found out that Hershall and the Deacon Dustin have something in common that is a tad bit K-9ish... (hint hint) We also met Justin Wakley today. The Deacon gave us an indication that he is...

Text us here! Hershall, it is mighty good to have you here, as always, if you are here? We had another history making day here on the trash-cast. As we promised last week, we shared a new song writte... I mean, produced by Josh Smith as an intro. It will be a major billboard hit I am sure. Gen Z boy got some clarification on what a baker's dozen is and knowing his track record for math you can imagine how difficult it was to convey the concept. I also gave a heartfelt apology to Deacon Dustin ov...

Text us here! Hershall, this is groundbreaking stuff here today on Pod'N Me or as I said in the episode, 'history making,' if you will, and I think you will. I know it has been somewhat of mystery as to what happened to DInk Burbank aka Josh Smith. Well today we found out. He's been absent for months now and we find out that it was for a very good reason. Can we say, a music EP (abbreviation for extended play) is here and it is exclusively for Pod'N Me. You will NOT, and I retype, will NOT be di...

Text us here! Hershall, to say this episode is a train wreck is an absolute meiosis (big word for understatement). Being Valentine's Day week, we started with a love song that has been sung (past tense of sang) in the past on here by Deacon Dustin and your humble correspondent many times. It is based off of a famous Bible story so it is legal to talk about on the podcast, but that is about all that we would classify as legal to discuss. We covered a new song that was recently released by a favor...

Text us here! Hershall, we always like to lead with our miscalculations (big word for mistakes) here on Pod'N Me, so, that is just exactly what I did to start the program. It was a heartfelt sorrowful plea to Bro. Brad. Then we did a re-cap of last week whilst I was at the Minister's Conference and gave some shout-outs during that time as well as allowed the boys to rail upon me some unjust insults but just like the Lord I offer forgiveness for everything that was said and in this instant they k...

Text us here! Hello folks shout out to all of y'all who are out here reading these descriptions! If you haven't already noticed the pastor is MIA this week and I *GEN Z BOY* am having to fill in! On this weeks episode we dive deep into a lot of important topics like gum, sharing saxophones, and much more! Everything should be back to normal next week ,but as for now enjoy this crazy episode! If you would like more of this trash pile go check out our Patreon "Pod'n Z" hopefully you won't be too d...

Text us here! Hersh, we started off with the deacon not being in his chair but we located him in no time. We sure hate that he didn't make it in studio but we were glad to talk to him nonetheless (three words jammed together to make no sense at all inmyopinion). We also had a rather serious discussion on how we deal with things that we can't control. We then heard from the Basement Bargains and found out that there has been a major change at their church. Gen Z Boy filled in for the Deacon on re...

Text us here! Hershall, we are here again for another great controversial episode. It matters not how many times I try to steer this church bus in the right direction, it seems that we always end up on the proverbial white line. I started a HUGE debate by telling something that I was grateful for in our new segment. It was an absolute travesty (big word for distorted) of justice, if you listen to the boys. On our growing list of grievances we added push presents and wedding debt. We ended with a...

Text us here! Hereshall, we are sure glad to be back this week for another episode of Pod'N Me. We covered the topics and things got off track very quick. At the beginning of the trash-cast, the deacon got outed by Gen Z Boy for drinking coffee and what ensued was a description that included toenails and bellybuttons, two topics that haven't been discussed at length (get it, toenail length) here. So, leave it to the boys. I steered us back up toward the proverbial (big word) road and we started ...

Text us here! Hershall, Happy New Year! who knows what this year is going to hold for Pod'N Me. But on this first day of the year, the tension in the studio built from the very first of the episode. I play a song that gave off a couple of different ideas on the person being talked about and we couldn't decide who was on his was... you'll hear. As happens most every week, we had a myriad (big word) of topics discussed from Christmas trips to snow skiing (big word with two eyes👀), to witnessing f...

Text us here! Hershall, for Christmas this year we decided (me decided) to release an old episode of Pod'N Me. It was recorded in the Christmas episodes of 2022. We had you along with our Deacon & Songleader in Studio 4 (our old flag-ship studio) and that was the first year for the voice filters which transformed us into chip-monks. Things were completely out of hand and that started a tradition that has continued for the 3rd Christmas season. We gather at the first of December and record ou...
