Title: How We Lost All of Our Money (We're Broke...)
Release Date: December 29, 2025
Hosts: Zane & Heath
Guest(s): Matt, Unidentified Male Guest
Episode Overview
This episode revolves around the anticipation of Heath’s baby (still waiting for his debut!), funny and relatable pre-parenthood anxieties, sidetracked deep dives into wild news stories, and the crew’s musings on everything from new animation styles to quirky McDonald’s facts.
