MLM’s, MMA, & Raisin Bran w James Pt 1 | Scattered Banter Ep. 16
On this episode of the podcast, we talk to Thomas’ really good friend James, whom he’s known since high school. This one was so good we had to break it up into two parts. In the first half, he shares stories of his high school days and the hardships of making weight in wrestling. We talk about how Thomas changed his life with a shady business deal which almost resulted in them buying matching Lambos, and then wrap up part one with his thoughts on UFC fighters and how they’re horrible at their job and how it motivated him to get off the couch and step into the octagon.

Trivia, Handmaids Tail, & Hall Passes - Pt.2 | Scattered Banter Ep. 14
Picking up where we left off from part one of our episode with Kelly, we start this one with a trivia face-off between Kelly and Thomas. Nerdy topics include Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, and how well do you know your friend. The convo jumps to the Handmaid’s tail and how likely we are to live in this type of world, which seems utterly nuts. Next, we pick on Thomas and talk about how we organized a dress like Thomas Day and his plans to re-enact the scene from Jerry Maguire when he gets fired. Last but not least, we played a fun game of comparing whose on each other’s hall pass list, which led to plenty of laughs.

Adventures w Kelly, NPH, & Chad GPT - Pt.1 | Scattered Banter Ep. 13
These episodes keep getting better and better and this time we’ve got a very special guest. Our very good friend, the one who shall be named, it’s Kelly! It was such a good time, we had to break it into two episodes. Kelly shares how she met and simultaneously scared the hell out of Neil Patrick Harris. We take on unanswerable questions from Chat GPT and uncover yet another animal Thomas hates, the llama. We talk about Rocky 4 and do our best to convince Kelly that it’s a must see, because come on, it’s a masterpiece. But maybe it’s just a guy thing.

In this episode we get into a very wide range of topics and start off talking about spiders and how they don’t seem to understand that they’re not allowed to be upstairs. Next up, we talk about a very popular online topic, how do you have friends and significant others stored in your phone. Do you use their nickname or do you always use their real name? Do you do both? Who the hell is Jim? How about adding a custom ringtone? We answer all of these questions and then we finally talk about butt stuff. Probably not what you’re thinking though.

Not Funny A-A-Ron & then Books | Scattered Banter Ep. 11
We start off this episode with Thomas being late to the podcast that’s recorded in the easiest place for him to get to then about my serious confusion as to why he doesn’t think the substitute teacher skit by Key & Peele is funny. It starts getting way off-topic and then we jump into some of our favorite and life-changing books. The Graveyard Book, Richest Man in Babylon, Extreme Ownership, Never Split the Difference, Crucial Conversations, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Ender’s Game, and Ready Player One. That’s a hell of a mouthful!

Storming Castles & Not Cliff Diving | Scattered Banter Ep. 10
Arend and Thomas share details from their recent trips to Toronto, Canada and Lanai, Hawaii and all the fun in between. Thomas made a new bff who cooked him a romantic dinner then went scuba diving for mermaids. Arend did shots of maple syrup in Canada, snuck into some of the closed areas at Casa Loma, and had an unforgettable experience switching seats on the plane with a women and her baby. As a side note, this episode was recorded just before the fires that took place in Maui, which made it crazy to hear about the fires as I was editing this episode. Our hearts and donations have since gone out to the victims and those impacted and we encourage our small handful of listeners to do the same.
