You guys know Nick Falco? Wouldn't it be so cool to be his personal assistant

DEATHWISH

this episode was alright, i was stuck in the middle from bad or good but i think the topic of religion for me is irrelevant in my lifestyle

Dakota Arvin

I’m an idiot I feel shame but I’m a beast

I just recently got the premium podcast for a Christmas gift I was listening to this episode on my bike while it was snowing on my bike to get Taco Bell I ate shit and I’m dumb but I ate my crunch wrap in the middle of the road so that was cool I felt like a gremlin

Jonny

Its starting to become really hard to be a guy whos quitting smoking and a listener of this podcast, that said its really funny

Jakob Boyd

I against I - JMT, Jus Allah’s part

Mia Christensen

Really great episode!

Gabe

Wasn’t expecting to have jam flashbacks to NA and hear the serenity prayer

ryan baker

I think Nick has a fair point in finding prayer to a higher power damaging, and I agree if you’re only looking for answers. As someone who does pray to a higher power. (in my case the Christian God) I pray to appreciate what I have but also to find guidance. I don’t think spirituality is inherently about getting answers but discovering oneself and finding those answers through informed decisions. As a Christian i don’t ignore all opinions that don’t come from the Bible, I weigh what I can find and see how it impacts and affects me.

Daniel Weems

I like how the more the ep went on the more they treated this as friends getting time to talk than them talking semi towards the audience

Daniel Evans

awesome ep. i think the immorality of gambling stems from the lust and greed for more money.

I got jumpscared when Ludwig sounded like he wanted an island of Smash players to make their own nation. I thought thats what he was setting up for. That island would be the most dangerous island for children since Epstein Island.

Colton Trussell

Usually leaving mormonism means leaving every community and social norm you thought existed. It’s interesting to live inside the “limbo stage” right after mormonism between transitioning to other communities - especially being an INFJ on the MBTI personality test(*).

Respect to bro. I can't pretend like I know how Mormonism works beyond the basis, but in my brain space I assume it's hard to leave Mormonism. Big ups for having the courage to do so, and find your own path. Not everyone can do that so good shit.

Dustin.my.i

This was by far my favorite ep. I grew up very Christian, but left Christianity in highschool. Even though it's been a few years I still sometimes struggle with feeling like I made a mistake. Something about nicks similar past was very validating in a way, and helped me feel a little more secure in my decision. Mainly because he left Christianity, and he's doing fine (presumably) so I should be able to accomplish a similar state of fine. Leaving Christianity can be really hard, and once you finally escape, it's still hard to feel right in your decision especially when everyone around you believes so strongly. I'm not saying this episode cured me, but it helped a little, and that's nice. ʕ⁠·⁠ᴥ⁠·⁠ʔ

I was raised Mormon and ended up agnostic to the degree of practically atheist. I completely agree with Nick and how community seems to be the one true positive to religion. Also I believe the word that describes the idea that was bounced around multiple times in this episode is “introspection” as it correlates to meditation. Long time fan, I look forward to seeing other meaningful/thoughtful topics like these in future episodes. Have a wonderful day

Love to see this

G-SUS

This was just some freaky Friday advice show situation and I loved it

Sean Walsh

Loved this power hour

Sean Walsh

We do not care

Matthew Alvaro

A note on the loaning. Charging interest was originally the sin of ursury. The guy taking the loan is a victim and is not sinning themselves. That's actually how Jewish banks came to be a common institution because Christians would poor money into that as a work around since they couldn't charge the interest. Then the church just moved the goalposts and said it's only "predatory" loans. A little interest is actually totally chill with God now.

SquirtleSquady

I actually liked how deep you two got into your spirituality/religion thoughts before cracking a joke and moving on

Matthew Alvaro

Hearing Lud stammer and sound so unsure when he said the bars he just came up with was so funny.

Mike Fitzgerald

I love how when Slime and Aiden have a power hour they talk about shit like making lud cum by tickling his prostate but when you get these two in a room together they start debating the ethics and purpose of prayer

TToutsa

I think aiden owes summoningsalt an apology

Abiyyu Avicena Ismunandar

I think what Poki meant was he met Nick at Mogul Money Live

Dillon Hoffpauir

What’s good poo farts

Aaron May

Nick got pretty dumb on this Ep

sam

And you paid to listen to it lol

bomk

Damn this ep got kinda deep. But yeah I think it's better if the kid is dead bc if he's alive you both have to live with the knowledge that you've seen it and that's just a weird scenario that nobody really wants to talk about, but if he's dead then you can just push it down and forget about it yk.

Snapdragon Sweetgum

Nick slay mother

bear

i thought the vibes were going to be off and weird this episode but it’s half an hour in and i’m enthralled

Rey Fisher

I think that tax thing was changed when trump was in office. Cause I think Hasan mentioned it one time but I could be making this all up

g d

how is that funny

Jared Loyd

Think it was aotp- seven. Could be wrong

Sam F

you didnt understand that segment

Alex May

Never mind I was so wrong it’s I against I by Jedi mind tricks

Alex May

Nick that verse is from desperados by Canibus

Bryan Ramirez

The last half of the episode was so comfortable. Love the deep conversations

Bryan Ramirez

Yeah the contrast between the last power hour and this one is insane

Chris Hall

Never been more excited for a premo

William Hargrove

Seinfeld reference ohemgee

Ashton Nave

What the fuck kinda episode

lowpolymoose

I think gambling is a moral wrong because it’s inherently wasteful, there’s no net positive overall compared to the other things you could spend your money on. Just looking at this episode, it was funny to hear nick say that he feels like any time spent on a hobby could instead be spent on doing something to better yourself, but didn’t see the side of gambling that seems way more wasteful than having a hobby. Overall it was a great episode and it was great to hear conversations over spirituality and otherwise deepness!

Bradley

This was not "funny" but was one of my favorite eps of all time, and I have run through the gauntlet 3 times now. Get deep more, ily guys.

Bradley

Stfu

Johl

Damn this episode really fueled both my curiosity and distaste of Mormons. What a weird group of fellas.

D. Dedert

I have a few hard rules I keep myself to. Idc if I get flamed, but I have a tattoo that says word is bond and I just have always said that it’ll fall off if I lie on a word is bond promise. I’ve just fully spent my time convincing myself and others this was the case so I fully believe it and never test it.

Brad Hamby

Just Ludwig and Nick was kinda fire

Jacob Tower

Was partially trolling but gawd damn 30 minutes of arguing semantics was brutal lmao

den

shud ub man

discocoyote

L take

kub

you're smoking weed, and dick and balls (the weed is bunk)

EPIC GAMER

That's insane to say 💀 just stay quiet bro

Jacob Tower

Damn the two worst members of the yard this podcast was hard to listen to

BrandoBobando

That's what I'm saying

Tony Misterly

The amount ludwig was wrong about MMA at 2:00 was painful

Chad Pridgeon

Nick cooks gambling isn't that bad

Will Douglas

Really glad Lud called out Hasan on his accents. As a Brit it's nearly offensive how bad they are

Connor

Absolutely did not expect a spiritual discussion on this ep lmao. I'm here for it tho

npoma

Paddy isn't the Belt holder, but it's true that Goggins doesn't belong nowhere near the corner of an MMA fighter, his advise was shit

Jesse Willson

I actually really enjoyed the deeper conversation this episode. Probably one of my favorite Patreon eps so far!

McKendric

yeah

Nathan

These two on power hour make me feel like I’m being perpetually gaslit.

Jaxon U

I think what makes the Yarbd special is that we can get a power hour between any 2 hosts and it's heat every single time

!!

The comment about the birth of Aphrodite is almost completely wrong. Aphrodite was created from the foam from the genitals of Uranus when Cronus threw him into the sea. Way before Posiden considering Cronus is Posiden's father.
