This week, Darwin and Cat switch gears with a personal update that’s equal parts awkward, heartfelt, and hilarious. Cat recounts the bizarrely polite story of losing something dear—and what, exactly, she stuffed in her bra on the way out—while Darwin drops a bombshell about his next big life and career move. This episode is packed with unexpected turns, nostalgic callbacks, a celebrity medical horror story, and a sneak peek at where the show is headed next season. Hint—it’s sailing straight into more comedy and chaos, with no life raft in sight.

In this episode, Darwin and Cat mourn the slow, cringeworthy death of commercial radio—once a cultural cornerstone, now a relic of corporate bloat, fake “local” flavor, and DJs with more ego than insight. With their signature comedy and real-life stories (including Cat driving into a Mexican parade and Darwin’s traumatizing encounter with Aqua-Net), they peel back the curtain on how the industry sold its soul. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Darwin and Cat share bold ideas for what radio could be, if anyone had the guts to try something new. This episode is for anyone who’s ever yelled at their car stereo and thought, ‘Holy hell – radio blows!’

On this episode, Darwin and Cat celebrate their 25th show with their first AMA: Ask. Us. Anything. From behind-the-scenes broadcast disasters and childhood confessions to surprising musical pasts, reality TV fame, and one unforgettable sports mix-up—no topic was off-limits. Darwin recounts the chaos of keeping WEQX live during a power outage, Cat shares her deathrock days as drummer of the Super Heroines, and together they open up about their enduring friendship, office mischief, and the lessons they’d take into a do-over of their old morning show. This episode is part confessional, part roast, and 100% Darwin and Cat.

Everyone’s had a boss—some great, some… not so much. In this episode, Darwin and Cat share quick stories about their own lineup of bosses before welcoming their very first guest: former boss Dan Austin. Together, they dive into EQX lore, uncover what management really thought about Darwin and Cat during their time at Albany Broadcasting, and much more.

Like most people, Darwin and Cat have had their fair share of Coworkers from Hell—and in this two-part episode, they're all making an appearance.

In Part Two, meet the omnipresent pest who flashed her lady bits, the beloved coworker we lost, one rare gem who wasn't from hell, and a non-radio colleague who will make you think twice before ever trusting a Frosty again.

Like most people, Darwin and Cat have had their fair share of coworkers from hell—and in this two-part episode, they’re all making an appearance.

In Part One, meet the infamous colleague with questionable hygiene, the Jesus Freak, the oddly specific “Black Jewish NASCAR fan,” the know-it-all who impulsively bought a gas station, and the "third wheel" we were SURE was decades older than he actually was.

But wait—there’s more! Tune in next week, where we dive even deeper into the dredges of workplace humanity with Co-workers from Hell, Part Two.

On this week’s episode, the duo dives deep into their nerdy radio roots. From Cat’s wild teenage adventures hanging out at KROQ with Rodney on the Roq and the Poorman – including a truly bizarre Ric Ocasek story – to Darwin’s obsession with distant AM stations and his college radio days with his first on-air partner – this episode is a love letter to the magic of radio. Along the way, they revisit the golden age of Casey Kasem countdowns, the rise of WEQX, and a surreal night involving Chris Barron (Spin Doctors), Rob Dickinson (Catherine Wheel), and Mike Doughty (Soul Coughing). It’s a story of fandom, questionable decisions, weird coincidences, and how two awkward kids with a love of radio ended up behind the mic together.

In their early days at WZMR, Darwin and Cat made the rookie mistake of accepting low salaries without negotiating for more. From a disastrous first meeting with inedible food to an awkward attempt at shaming management into a raise with a game called, “Who Makes More?” — the duo shares their frustrations with the station's undervaluation of their work. Hear about a bizarre meeting that included foot-related topics, triple coupons, a seven million dollar check, and the weirdest meeting notes ever.
