After an unscheduled, an unofficial break, the boys are back to check in with the entire Internet. Brett and Andy continue to document their scholastic journey, and blossoming friendship, that leaves Chad out of the loop. Also, Andy and Chad ra

The guys dive into politically correct terminology in society. The “person first” mentality is front and centre as Chad shares a story from Teacher’s College, and the boys just shake their heads.
Bret misses an episode because he’s “under the weather” (or just afraid of getting smack-talked by our guest). Special guest Kevin Davidson joins us to reflect on his 20 year friendship with Andy, as well as his personal challenges with his he
The boys connect about Father’s Day, Awkward family moments at the beach, and Bret losing an inflatable trampoline at the cottage. Trampolines are overrated anyway, right?

Chad is away for the week, so Sam Loaker subs in to talk baseball, and cheating at it. Also, Bret is back in the gym and trying to get his legs to work (What?!) and Andy has to use the accessible bathroom in the dark.
