Luke “The Onion Bagel Knight” Burbank and Andrew “Tamuel Smarley” Walsh break down the Battle of Winterfell — the good, the bad, and the stuff that nobody could actually see. 

Andrew has some bad news about his weekly garbage pickup, but he says he’s going to be okay. He and Luke also talk about how the Monkees inspired one of Luke’s favorite Del The Funky Homosapien songs, and how getting fired 9 years ago might have saved Luke’s life. 

Australia is dropping poisonous sausages from airplanes to curb its feral cat problem. That checks a lot of TBTL boxes, story-wise. Plus, Luke is preparing for his dangerous jobs in the outback by getting chased by dogs in Texas. And Andrew saw Avengers: Endgame this weekend, but he’s not going to spoil ANYTHING. 

TBTL Friendo Nora McInerny joins Luke and Andrew in their attic studio at APM to talk about her new book, her new TED talk, and all the other amazing things she’s been up to. They also discuss the worst haircut ever used to advertise a SuperCuts.

Luke and Andrew share the details of their romantic date along the banks of the swollen Mississippi River last night. Plus, a local news station uses a lot of bad jokes to report on the dangerous turkey situation in St. Paul, validating Luke’s experiences and annoying Andrew with bad journalism.

Luke and Andrew reflect on their RAN HAM bowling party last night, the rising Mississippi River, their friend Jason Newman, and a person they wish was their friend — the singer Lizzo.

Luke and Andrew have very different takes on Season 8 Episode 2 “A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms,” and things get tense. However, on the positive side, they do seem to be zeroing in on who Jon Snow is, so that’s at least something.

Luke and Andrew check-in from St. Paul, where they just survived a near-disaster in the Studio P right before the show. Plus, Luke learns he might have ornithophobia, and Andrew is ready to ask a local haberdasher if TBTL can please broadcast from his shop.

Luke and Andrew make it to the APM Mother Ship just in time to have 35 meetings, which has them feeling stressed. Meanwhile, Luke has a near run-in with a kindly pizza delivery person, and Andrew might have found a way to get over being a nervous flyer.

Andrew might have started a fight between two strangers last night, while Luke finds himself in the middle of his own donnybrook online. Plus we have some Music For Your Weekend! 

Luke sat next to a self-styled Donald Trump impersonator on his trip from Cleveland to Portland, putting his Skyjinx survival instincts to the test. Plus, Luke and Andrew discover a new terrifying creature to be afraid of in the Australian outback.

Andrew and Luke discuss their favorite food-related Bible stories. Andrew also helps Luke prep for his trip to Cleveland, and Luke talks about the time he almost ditched a dinner party that he DEFINITELY shouldn’t ditch.

A Song Of Ice And Spoilers returns for the final season of Game of Thrones! Luke and Andrew discuss the season premiere and ask the important questions every hardcore fan wants to know, like what is a White Walker and who is Jon Snow? 

It’s the day after Tax Day, and Luke is trying to declare Andrew as one of his dependents. They also discuss the life and death of one of the last Yangtze softshell turtles on Earth, and why Duluth, Minnesota, is about to become the coolest place to live, both literally and figuratively.

Luke’s outdoor misadventures continued this weekend, almost leading to a Drama In Real Life situation. Plus, TV networks have admitted to piping bird sounds into golf broadcasts. And Andrew reveals a fascinating fact about airplane tires that is not true.

Luke and Andrew go through the pile of letters they’ve received from listeners regarding their questionable trip through the Australian Outback.

The first-ever photos of a black hole 54 million light years away put Luke and Andrew in a philosophical mood. And the details about how the photo was captured leave the boys dazzled indeed.
