We’re so happy you’re tuning in yet again to the world’s smartest podcast, featuring the world’s most incredible singer. This episode starts off with a heated debate between the cuties: is Arielle a good singer or a great singer? Unfortunately, Matt once again is being a bit too honest here, leaving Arielle’s dreams potentially crushed. Let us know how you think Arielle’s “American Idol” audition went. Is it too little, too late for this budding vocalist? The co-hosts also discuss how Arielle wo...

The cuties asked their followers for questions to answer on the pod, and once again, the Riled Uppers did not disappoint. We’re getting into everything from tramp stamps to mental health to wake-up songs to mini sandwiches. But first, Matt shares one of the drunk stories submitted after last week’s episode, and it leads to a very important question: why do drunk people just love getting naked? There is lots of motorboating involved in our first drunk story submission and it will make you want to...

Welcome back to the #1 educational podcast in the world! Today we learn what Lilikoi is. Basically, it’s an ingredient in a Lilikoi mule, a cocktail that Arielle had two too many of resulting in the cuties podcasting from bed. The hosts catch up on this season of Love Island, analyze the differences between girls and guys dressing rooms (Matt does NOT hang out in the girls dressing room, FYI), and discuss the best and worst kinds of drunks. Please send us all your drunkest stories for us to pote...

This episode takes a lot of turns. We start out by analyzing Matt’s recent farting activity, get real deep about anxiety, discuss what it means to be “ugly hot” versus “hot ugly,” and then circle right back around to farts. It’s a real rollercoaster over here, Riled Uppers. The hosts also go off on a tangent about just how much they love Tito’s Vodka, and you better believe Tito’s owes us some money over here or at least free vodka for life because this was not sponsored content. Or was it? You’...

Hey, Matt’s mom, if you’re listening to this podcast episode... don’t. Matt and Arielle do not want you to hear what they hypothetically plan on doing with various celebrities so you’re going to want to exit that podcast app stat. Don’t get us wrong – the cuties are still fully engaged and doing well, but isn’t it fun sometimes to picture what would happen if Brad Pitt slid into the DMs? In other news, Matt and Arielle are planning what they’re most excited to do in their future (lots of lasagna...

Today we’re riled about Snow White, lighthouses, the word atrocious, valet responsibility, nicknames, aliens, and Emo’s Not Dead coffee.
