The After Show But Later

This week Daniel and El Cucuy catch you up on this past week.

Rich Davis has become known at school as the guy from Have Kids, They Said, a smutty and unapologetic podcast. This has led to side-eyes and long stares, but Rich seems to embrace the attention. Some believe he promotes the show more than necessary, despite its explicit content being unsuitable for a school environment. Sirius XM pushes Have Kids harder than Rich’s other projects, likely because people crave unfiltered content. Rich is at his most raw and authentic on this show, blending personal stories with his edgy humor. His message? Growth comes from discomfort, and kids need to learn resilience—no more participation trophies!

Covino and Rich (CNR) aren’t as explicit as they used to be, especially compared to their earlier content or their Patreon shows. Rich seems more image-conscious now, possibly due to parallels with Fox Sports or a desire to maintain a polished brand. While older CNR episodes felt more raw and unfiltered, their current Patreon content feels toned down. However, Rich’s other show, Have Kids, They Said, remains edgier despite being free. The shift may stem from repeated conversations or adapting to a broader audience, but fans note the change in energy and style compared to their early days.

Elon Musk jokes, stadium etiquette, and social media quirks collide in this lively discussion. The hosts humorously debate Elon’s hair plugs and achievements, before diving into stadium do’s and don’ts: respect the home team, keep your jersey subtle, and act like a polite guest to avoid trouble. They shift to social media, questioning the trend of creating pages for pets and possessions. While one admits to making a page for their dog, they later felt it was unnecessary, pondering if others truly care about such posts. It's a mix of humor, reflection, and relatable musings about modern culture.

People follow trends and share quirky things like car pages for fun. Lisa says if it makes you happy, go for it, and I agree. We also reminisced about growing up, frying everything from spam to tortillas because it was cheap and practical. Funny how food connects us—like George Lopez's jokes about frying. I even made my mom’s green salsa for the first time; it was so easy and delicious. Growing up, my family made do with affordable staples like beans, potatoes, and bologna, adapting to make ends meet. Creativity was key, and those memories stick with me.

Hawaii treasures Spam, using it in various dishes. Inspired, I got creative with it—fry it right, and it’s nostalgic, cheap, and delicious. It’s comfort food like baloney, Sloppy Joes, or Hamburger Helper. Speaking of comfort, I love Jiffy Corn Muffins with KFC honey packets for a Marie Callender’s vibe. Add chili sauce, and life’s complete. Groceries remind me: balance healthy snacks with indulgence. Random thought—famous people like Helen Keller (blind and deaf) inspire reflection. Pop culture? Bow Wow grew up, Fat Joe stayed “Joe.” Names evolve, just like tastes and trends. It’s all about staying true to roots while adapting.

Let us know if you're getting our Patreon notifications! Some people aren't, and we're trying to fix it. For example, Lewis wasn’t getting ours, though he sees others like Yannis Pappas. That’s why we sent messages on Instagram—not to stalk you, but to check in with regulars. If you’re missing notifications, please tell us. We appreciate your support!
