Merry Crimbas y'all. On today's episode of The Broken Anchor Podcast, the boys talk about their Christmas weekends and all the goodies they got. They'll also get into Urban Meyer and all the coaching rumors that are currently going around with him and pretty much every single vacancy out there. Ed Sheeran dropped a new song and Ben is NOT A FAN, for some reason.
Would you rathers include: would you rather use eyedrops made of vinegar or sandpaper for toilet paper, and would you rather have Chinese handcuffs or your shoes tied together for a full year?
Shower thoughts got a little sappy at the end because it's the end of the year and we look back on how 2020 made us all a little better.

Ep. 31: Old Man Larry and Mike McMahon, The Death and Resurrection of Notre Dame Football, and Rudolph's Nose Makes You Lose Weight
Happy Monday, people. AWESOME episode coming through for you guys today. Had the chance to talk to two of our greatest and weirdest brains in the BA Family, Mike McMahon and Old Man Larry, about the college football playoff, the fact that Rudy was a fraud, and Mike's collection of 1200 movies.
We'll then get into Joe's reaction from Saturday's debacle of a game between Notre Dame and Clemson, and Ben freaks out over Charlie Woods and his breakout round with his dad (Tiger) watching.
Would You Rathers include fighting a round against Mike Tyson or having Mike Tyson's lisp forever, and having rudolph's nose or elf's ears for the rest of your life.
Shower thoughts: shells are just fraudulent rocks, if you think about it.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
The Third Floor Report W/ Ian, Jake, and Gabe, Humanity Isn't Ready for the Aliens, and Who Invented Cheese?
DOOZIE of an episode on tap for today, people. We had the boys from the Third Floor Report come on to tell us about their new podcast that they're bringing into the Broken Anchor world. We also got into the story about the aliens and humans having a Galactic Federation on Mars, and Joe might respect the aliens now...
The would you rather segment is also back with a couple of WILD questions asked by the Mainstays. Would you rather lick someone's bare toe or their bare armpit after a workout, and would you rather never have to sleep again or never have to go to the bathroom again?
We then finished up with some shower thoughts on how/why cheese was invented.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 29: Some Company News, Would You Rathers, Shower Thoughts, and The Mullets vs. The Mormons
Alright guys we're trying something new for this one, and I think this is how we'll format the show going forward because it was so much fun. We kicked it off with some company news and our newest additions to the BA Family. We then got into some sports talk with Anthony Davis and LeBron, THE Ohio State University, and the Mullets vs. the Mormons game. Then the new stuff came in.
We asked you guys to send us some Would You Rather questions, and you DID NOT disappoint! We went through our favorites from throughout the week, and we finished up with some shower thoughts, which went completely off the rails. Oh well.

Ep. 25: Dom's Last Episode, Asians Don't Have Sandwiches, And Our Thoughts On The Election
Yes, you read that correctly. Dom is sadly leaving the podcast for now, so we decided to talk about that head-on and remember some of his best moments he had with us. We're absolutely going to miss him, as I'm sure you guys will, too. We'll also get into the election and how polarized the country has become, which is a pretty serious discussion, but a great one we're all really proud of and happy we had.
AND THEN, we get back into the usual tone of the podcast when we come to the realization that the Asian population doesn't really eat sandwiches for some reason. Think about it.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Aliens Don't Want The Smoke, Are Ghosts Actually Real, Underrated Holidays, and Slept-On Halloween Candy
All-time episode coming through today guys. So it starts off pretty solid with everyone giving their thoughts on Halloween and how whoppers might be the most slept-on halloween candy in the game. Then we get into a time where Ben and Dom went into Olive Garden and ate a whole meal in costumes not on Halloween. Then Joe drops a take that Aliens have been here, they've seen humans, and they are afraid of us. I'll let you guys listen to the rest so I don't spoil it. Probably my favorite episode we've had so far. Enjoy. Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep 23: Gabb Goudy, Dom is Sharpening Butter Knives, Joe is Milking Apples, and Ben is Back From the Dead
Happy Monday, everybody! We had Gabb Goudy on the show today, and we got to talk all about the city of Cleveland, the Browns finally being good at football, and so much more. Awesome conversation with her! We'll also get into apple butter and why it even exists, Dom's new knife-sharpening thing he of course got on Amazon, and the fact that Ben has resurrected himself in a big way.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 22: Ben is Dead, Our Thoughts On The Bachelorette, Does Deep Dish Pizza Count as Pizza, and Joe's About to Get His Face Burned Off
Happy Monday guys. So Dom found something on Amazon that only he would be nuts enough to buy. We also get into Chicago and if deep dish pizza really is pizza. Definitely could get contentious. Other topics include Joe spending a weekend at the honky tonks in Nashville, the actual rules of sharks and minnows, and why tabloids STINK.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 21: The Bidet Needs to Come to America, Does Fruit Belong on Dessert, and We Have MORE Company News

Rushmore of Music in our generation, and we have some more company news to get into!!!!!
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 20: That Time Joe Got Robbed At Gunpoint, Ben Solved a Burglary Ring, Joe Rogan's Getting Censored, and Our Thoughts on Debates
Quite the hum-dinger of an episode today, people. We have a pretty cool announcement to make about the company, Joe tells the story of that time he got robbed at gunpoint at Subway, Ben solved a burglary ring, we had some debate talk, and Joe Rogan is going through cancel culture but not really. Awesome episode.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 19: Paul Fritschner, Manny Pacquiao is all the way back, and everyone in the NFL is injured
What an episode, guys. Our good friend Paul Fritschner joined the pod today to help get us (and by us we of course mean just Dom) back on board with baseball, in addition to talking about the birth of the "absolutely exquisite...delightful!" clip and how he got into broadcasting as a kid. We had a great conversation with him that starts right around the 7:30 mark.
Ben and Dom also had to catch Joe up on what happened this past week because he's been a little out of the loop because the fiance was in town. As it turns out, the entire NFL is injured, you can apparently bet on marble races, Vicadin Limoncello is fighting again, Manny Pacquiao is fighting Conor McGregor, and the Reds are in the playoffs for the first time in seven years.
Let's go have the best week of all time.
Ep. 18: Dom might have Covid, Negative Comments Hurt Our Feelings, and Lakers in 4
Happy Make It Happen Monday, beautiful people. It's time for you to go have the best week of all time, and what better way is there to do that than to get it started with The Broken Anchor?

I know we say this every episode, but this one might be our best yet. We talked about a little more how the Roll Blob boys are going to be a part of us going forward and what they can bring to the table. We also need to settle whether Dom can give us the secret word from last week's podcast, we need to determine when Ben is doing the Blazin' Challenge from BDubs because he lost the Lakers-Blazers bet, and since Joe does not have to drink his own pee, Dom made him bet on something else.
We'll also get into the new Cobra Kai show on Netflix and the beautiful artform of Disney Channel Original Movies.
Let's go have the best show of all time.
Ep. 15: Captain Xavier, The Ohio Cup is FINALLY Happening, and RIP Chadwick Boseman
Ohhhh we got a big one today, people. Captain Xavier himself, the man who continuously electrifies the Twitter world with Xavier Basketball content, came and hung out with us to talk about the wide world of college basketball amid this pandemic we have going on. Had a lot of great discussion with him, so we're really excited for you to hear it.
We also took a little time at the end to talk about the passing of the King of Wakanda, Mr. Chadwick Boseman. The man meant so much to the film industry as a whole, so we took a second to pay our respects to an all time great.
