In another Mezcal fueled adventure, Nicki and Devon take on tipping, 24-hour diners, and share stories from their pasts. Basically it's an episode of 2 Friends on a Couch. Bonus point go to our heroes though because they tie up a loose end left after their St. Patrick's Day episode, when Nicki tells a story from when she was #VeryHarryPotter. Keeping with the theme of children's books Devon finally finds the words to express his love of Judy Blume. In the end it's realized that they don't have a...

We celebrate St. Patrick's Day by acting #Goofy and generally #MakingAnIdiom of ourselves. The struggle to define what exactly the show is continues when Nicki makes a statement about it being a series of digressions. French literature and stream of consciousness win the day, well that and getting drunk on Irish whiskey... In fact getting drink on Irish Whiskey definitely wins the day.

Although our hosts are definitely not #RosettaStoned while recording this episode, they do have some fun with language. #Clenched. This isn't a #DressRehearsal. #Clenched. They discuss the underlying philosophy of their everyday interactions and it boils down to spreading the sunshine. Which Devon thinks sounds dirty. #Bazinga! In conclusion, #clenched.

Taking it to the streets like an odd couple of AM radio hosts... Nicki and Devon discuss the weather, Deadpool (No Spoilers), the ratings system, Fifty Shades of Grey (Huge Spoilers), and Hugh Jackman. In addition they discuss the merit of having a go to baker, the validity of gender revelation cakes, and play a thrilling round of the movie game they still haven't given a name to yet.

Nicki and Devon revisit some past topics and procedures before putting the #Kibosh on all of that #MetaPodcasting after rolling the dice. Devon starts a flame war with the IT guys at his new job and Nicki presents her opinions on the Novice Effect. We'd elaborate, but it would be much better if you listened to find out what any and all of that means! As an added tidbit Devon does explain the meaning of life so we've got that going for us... Which is nice!

Nicki and Devon welcome a very special guest to the couch for their 40th episode. Then perhaps even more exciting (not even close) for the first time they play their own movie trivia game... and the results are spectacular. So whether you like surprises, trivia, or theme songs from the 90's there is something for everyone

Nicki and Devon chew the fat, one of them LITERALLY, regarding #SexualFetish and we're #SorryNotSorry to #JustinAndFriend that this all bloopers all the time episode mostly features the duo reiterating some points from earlier episodes, discussing the "Board with Friends" Ghostbuster's episode that featured the podfather himself (that's... that's Devon), and as a result we geek the fuck out about our favorite franchise! Also as an added disclaimer, we may spoil the 2015 remake of Point Break...A...

Nicki is back from Virginia and we start by honoring the passing of Alan Rickman (we're pretty sure we aren't responsible), David Bowie (sorry), and Lemmy (#RoadCrew). For the first time in maybe forever we actually talk about something we teased in a prior episode when Devon forces Nicki to tell the Bad Influence story and we learn there are sometimes when the salutation #MakeGoodDecisions isn't as cute as it sounds. Plus Devon finally tells us his favorite quote from the first "Teenage Mutant ...

A new studio means its time for a #Throwback where we just talk until Mike comes home from work. In that time we are able to cover the various Power Ranger ripoffs from the nineties, how #Loquacious Walter is, Nicki tells us about her plans to go and #ChaseThatBaby, and the origin of the latest hashtag sweeping the nation #ObnoxiousForDevon. Most importantly Nicki tells everybody how she pulled one over on Devon in order to throw him a surprise birthday party including all available minions from...

Chipotle, Noro Virus, E. Coli, Monty Python. Not such a great start to an episode, but then we get onto movies and start discussing the actors from Avengers and Thor and make our own movie game that really pulls our fat out of the fire. The best part is the fact that the episode is only 19 minutes long so you only have to deal with the slower stuff about food-borne illnesses for like 7 of them!

We finally get long time friend of the show Sejohn Serowik on the couch and the results are even greater than anyone could have imaged. Not only do we say #Sexy and #Falcon so many times that they lose all meaning, we eventually redeem both by combining the two to create #SexyFalcon. The only reason we talk about Falcons so damn much isn't because both Nicki and Sejohn's college mascots were falcons, but because Sejohn even after 3+ hours of discussion the night before still has more to say abou...

In our first TRULY Holiday themed episode, we invite back Dayle Decker and attempted to do an episode where we talk all about Christmas and Chanukah for our Christian and Jewish fans. We sort of succeed by naming a bunch of Adam Sandler movies, but eventually we run out of steam and just tell stories about when we met celebrities. Which was more than likely inspired by the seance we hold early on to speak directly to Dwayne Johnson. Still we have family altogether laughing and singing and having...

How do Transformers reproduce? We don't know either! Something about Protoforms, maybe. We also discuss lots of films and casting choices and their influence on society, How do YOU feel about a #BlondeBond? Nicki hates it when you clap at the end of a film screening. Just. Stop. It. Also, she tells YET another story in which she almost gets into a knife fight. Oh,and Devon says some stuff too. Have a listen!

In the very special "episode" brought to you by the letter A and the number Q we get up off the couch and the whole proceedings occur with us on our feet, Mike makes a silent appearance playing #MassEffect and Devon reveals to Nicki that he's already played and beaten it before. Nicki speaks about the immunity strengthening properties of Elderberry Syrup and all Devon can think about is how Elderberries make him think of #DongNuggets. Which is sort of appropriate because the reason she is standi...

In this #Meta episode, we revisit some old themes, such as our mutual disdain for Star Wars, the prayer closet in the #WarRoomMovie and Devon #SqueesWithGlee. Nicki does a bit of #PearlClutching over #Vaping, especially in movie theaters. Devon admits to being a #ButtonPusher, and we introduce a new hashtag SO FUNNY that we give it a moment of silence. What is it, you ask? You'll have to listen to find out!

Welcome to the thirtieth episode of 2 Friends on a Couch! Featuring guest Zach "Galifianakis" Dyer. As teased on last week's episode the three of us went to a Podcast MeetUp group and had quite the adventure. Which is good, because if we didn't then who knows what we might have had to talk about. Zach and Devon go deep down the Petro-Rabbit Hole in a discussion about all things Transformers. While Nicki calls shenanigans on Devon's claim from last episode that the bible is just NOW being adapted...

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. Today is a day to be with your families so we don't have a new episode. Instead Devon, Nicki, and guest Zach "Galifianakis" Dyer decided to take Two minutes to share what we they're thankful for. Of course since this is 2 Friends on a Couch those Two minutes grew into Seven. Luckily we were able to quell the growth of the infection, via amputation. Plus we added a little surprise. So listen well, enjoy your meals, and love your families whether they be the ones you ...

It's a short and sweet summation of our evening on tonight's episode of 2 Friends. We tease the next episode topics of our Podcast metope experience and Devon finally sharing his Tyrese Gibson story

a.k.a "I would eat the penis" What both parties expected to be a civil conversation quickly degenerates into a bashing of the new James Bond film the likes of which has never been heard before! in that time though we learn about Nicki's humanitarian work regarding the #CuspOfMaturity, Devon's actual factual no pants and cheesesteak adventures, and somehow both troll the sort of ginger cashier who we bought our tickets from at last night's screening. The only #DameShame is that Mike only brought ...

In the first episode of our second season, Nicki realizes that sex sells and she makes a mildly indecent proposal. #GiveYourPants Devon decides he wants to #FuckGuyFieri (not really) and we grieve for people of the world who are #AllergicToChocolate. Devon waxes wistfully about his old theater days until Nicki puts the #Kaibash on it and they introduce an entirely new podcast-- #BoardWithFriends! Wow, kinda buried the lead on this synopsis....

We celebrate our 25th episode by going back to the original format we used way back in our first (sadly lost) episode. For those unfamiliar that was back when Nicki and I would sit on the couch and just shoot the shit until Mike came home. Poor Time and Spatial knowledge caused us to be caught off guard and left us with our shortest, drunkest episode yet. Luckily we were able to send what we had to Will so he could pad out the length with an intro. Man, now that I'm talking about it I'm kind of ...

The topics are vast and varied on tonight's episode. We disparage #DoubleDenim, although it can be #Endearing.We talk about cars, sandwiches, Cheers vs. Wings based on a variety of metrics... yeah, Devon is #ThatGuy. We say #HiDayle, since her recent coming of age inspired or was tangentially related to many of the night's proceedings. Devon unveils his plan to record a road trip podcast with our intro friend Will. HOWEVER, someone *ahem* left the equipment behind in Chattanooga, which Nicki is ...
Oct 02, 2015•57 min
On tonight's episode Devon and Nicki speak in hushed, reverent voices on such varied topics as the Boy Scouts of America, Doug Loves Movies and even our old favorite "Bloodsport" gets a mention--all in the soothing vocal styling of a public radio broadcast. Enjoy!

Episode 22: The Search For More Money. Just kidding, that Spaceballs reference doesn't actually have anything to do with today's episode. We rate and review things as submitted to us by longtime sister and listener, Dayle Decker. Scissors and their many "applications" get reviewed. And we not-so-humbly encourage *you* to rate and review *us* on iTunes. Reach out listeners! We want to hear from you!

The title pretty much says it all... but just in case you need more of a reason to listen. Meet Up, Middle School, Mommies, and Mooport Creamery all feature heavily. Its a #Cadre of Alliterative FUN!

We feature Mike as the guest on our 20th episode of Friends on a Couch... with some concessions. Mike decides to treat it as though it is an episode of his favorite podcast-- 3 Friends and a Movie, Daylight edition. We learn of Nicki's desire to learn Klingon (#TargPlease) and Devon invents the phrase #NescarBeloboe. We decide that the Recess/Lilo & Stitch crossover really WHOMPed, and for every 1 good crossover, there are 5 bad ones. #Simpsorama #GodWILLing #BloodyMary won't #CutThePower on...

Zach Not-Really-Galifinakis from the cell phone store rounds out our guest series on tonight's installment from the Couch. We #LevelUp our #PottyHumor with a #RimShot joke that just won't go away and discuss the #SeaOfPink which isn't what you think it is, you perv. We #ShamWow the audience with our #BehindTheScenes take on Hasbro's film franchises and Zach's #BeenLoebed. Oh, and lots of Dr. Who references.

His Majesty of the Magocracy of Eeeeeee graces us belatedly with his presence in this guest episode of Friends on a Couch. We explain our strange foreign ways to him via #hashtags and he regales us with tales from Eeeeeee. Return guest Katy acts as Ambassador and helps to bridge the cultural gap.

With our second special guest Katy, we harmonize over our three-way mutual love of karaoke.We coin the term #Grumperjack (no relation to the term #Grumper, coined in a previous episode) and bid adieu #GoodbyeQualudes. #Greta gets mention in Katy's old LiveJournal, and we hear dramatic readings from both Katy and @DisneyDevon. We learn about Nicki's #PunchOnSite list and fondly wish #HappyBirthdayCynthia. Who's Cynthia? Have a listen to find out!

In this special guest episode, we finally discover the true meaning of Yellow House. Our guest Dayle is completely #Bambooyah-ed by Zook. We get to #KnowYourMonuments, and some of them taste like pennies... We make a #Reference, but not to #Texas. Devon tries to sell Dayle & Nicki on #Zombabies, #PatentPending, but the ladies are skeptical. It all culminates with the #WrapAroundReachAround. We hope you enjoy!
