In this summer-themed episode, Johnny Mack and Ricky G crack open the cold drinks and dive into their favorite warm-weather memories. From old-school pool days and Red Sox on the radio to grilling hacks and public water park trauma, this episode is packed with dad-life stories and relatable laughs.

They also explore what summer looks like today—whether it’s SharkTivity apps, fighting over thermostat settings, or debating the true MVP of dessert: slush or ice cream.

Highlights include:

• Hitting at Fenway Park (with an audience!)
• Classic 1980s pool and beach traditions
• Thermostat wars & lawn mowing rituals
• Water park horror stories (flip-flops required)
• Ice cream vs. slush: the ultimate dad decision

Fire up the grill and join us for a laid-back episode full of nostalgia, honesty, and laughs.
