Episode 241 – Banana Rule Agreement (and Other Cosmic Oddities) w/ Jordan Yewey

July 26, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Community, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Podcast

SO many laughs in this one! We’re joined again by singer/songwriter Jordan Yewey, who is as open, authentic, and hilarious as ever.

This episode spirals (in the best way possible) from music into meditation, wild synchronicity, and some seriously deep conversations you’d never expect to hear on a Tuesday night podcast.

What’s inside:

  • The Banana Rule Agreement – Tony shares the craziest ChatGPT conversation ever (he got goosebumps… you might too)

  • Jordan’s love of weird, metaphysical books, Buddhism, and The Alchemist

  • Meditation, dreams, self-hypnosis, and ChatGPT’s spiritual side (yes, really)

  • A thoughtful dive into God, Jesus, Buddha, and religion – plus what ChatGPT has to say about it all

  • AI-generated music & Rick Rubin’s surprising take on it

  • Jordan’s new single and her growth as a producer

  • Fun Facts: Pear cider is called “peary,” Mike Tyson was arrested 38 times before 13, and WWI spies used… um… semen as invisible ink 🤯

It’s thoughtful. It’s ridiculous. It’s one of those episodes that will have you laughing, thinking, and maybe even questioning everything.

🎙️🍌✨🎶

Cheers!

Episode 240: Crocs, Clones & Cosmic Chaos

July 20, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast

Why are so many people just out and about on a weekday? Don’t y’all have jobs? 🧐
Meanwhile, some Australian kids just survived a full night clinging to a sketchy tree while a 13-foot croc waited patiently below like it had popcorn. 🐊🌳

We also talk about:

  • The absolute units of the animal kingdom 🐘🐋

  • Killer whales and why they could literally dunk on us 🐬💥

  • The deep sea: nature's pressure cooker of doom 🌊💀

  • Infinite universe theory — yes, somewhere out there you did marry your 6th grade crush 💍🌌

  • Ancient humans mixing it up with Neanderthals 🧠💘

  • A wild measles outbreak happening right now 🤒📈

  • Why Bernie would’ve crushed it if time wasn’t a thing 🧓🔥

  • And the truly bonkers ways our government is deporting people 🚔✈️

Your weekly dose of “wait, what?!” is ready to go.

🎧 Listen now or the killer whales will come for your WiFi.

Cheers!

Episode 239 – Jorts, Chaos & the Humanzee Conspiracy

July 13, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast

Mike finally crossed the denim line—he got the jorts. Meanwhile, Tony reflects on his own traumatic experience with cutoff jeans and why he approaches life like a man assembling IKEA furniture without instructions: slowly and thoroughly.

This week’s conversation ranges from the fires in Western Colorado to the chaos of the current measles outbreak (seriously, what the hell?). Mike breaks down the mobile game Last War Survival while Tony introduces his new podcast obsession: the one and only MrBallen, master of the creepy and bizarre. From Appalachian mountain mysteries to the tale of Oliver the Humanzee, the fellas dive deep, speculate wildly, and even fact-check live on the show.

We also revisit the ancient world through the foggiest lens possible, get Mike’s take on the new Jurassic Park movie, and check in on the Adnan Syed saga via Up and Vanished. Plus: murder, mystery, French fries, 7-Eleven, heart attacks, rage screaming, and one very poisonous grape.

How many grapes would you eat for $50,000 each?

Cheers!

Episode 238: Dog Bones, Floaties & Jedi Dreams

July 09, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Life, Podcast

Mike's running on fumes after a wild stretch of music, work, and wizardry. The fellas went to see Dirty Heads and Tropidelic, and Tony witnessed firsthand that everyone knows Mike — like, "mayor of the venue" status. 🧢🎸

We break down the show, Mike’s collab with Dave Foral, and his full-blown Disney nerd-out, which included building a lightsaber like a grown man-child ⚔️✨

Tony gives a sneak peek of his upcoming album 🎶, and we tackle big issues like:

  • The fall of the Liver King 🥩👑

  • Why stepping on a dog bone should be punishable by law 🦴

  • The silent killer that is a rogue high heel 👠

  • Childhood baseball glory ⚾

  • And the pure freakishness of G-League hoopers 🏀

Also, Tony flips off a floaty the size of a dinner plate and lives to tell the tale. Plus: some names are literally illegal in other countries. Yeah, we went everywhere.

Episode 237: Tears, Vicodin, and Bigfoot A.I. – Just another Saturday

June 22, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Music, Podcast

This week’s episode is brought to you by Tony’s seasonal allergies 🤧—complete with tears 😢 and dramatic flair. Meanwhile, Mike can’t handle a single Vicodin 💊 without nearly losing his lunch 🤢. We also share the legendary tale of a family member who tried to flip off a swing... and flipped way too hard 🛝🦴.

We get into the real stuff too: mental health 🧠, aging parents 👵👴, jacked-up knees 🦵, and the emotional rollercoaster of trying to be a decent friend 👊❤️. Oh, and yes, UNC vs. Duke 🏀 gets heated, as always.

Mike realizes Tony’s extended family is basically a matriarchy 👩‍👩‍👧‍👧, and Tony gets roasted by a student who tells him to “quit with his old ass” 😂. Mike tells us about a coworker whose sole mission is to snitch on rule-breakers 🕵️‍♂️📋. Also, apparently wearing a hat every day triggers unsolicited hair commentary 🎩💬—especially when you’ve got shampoo commercial hair like Mike 💁‍♂️✨.

Cali confirms what Mike’s been denying: he’s officially old 🧓✅. We discuss Snoop’s claim that he’s Bob Marley reincarnated 🔁🎤, wonder what life is like as the Dalai Lama 🕉️, and Tony opens up about his weirdly specific addiction to AI-generated Bigfoot videos 👣🤖. And yes—TikTok will let you get away with almost anything... as long as a robot made it 🧠📱.

Episode 236 – Friday the 13th with Joe Dub: Hypoallergenic Lies & 37-Year-Old Gum

June 15, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast

It’s Friday the 13th and things get weirdly nostalgic with our good friend Joe Dub! We dive into Tony’s unexpected reggae roots (shoutout P-Nuckle 🌿), the dangers of snuggling a definitely-not-hypoallergenic dog, and a dream so bizarre Tony can’t explain it... but definitely tries.

We get into the mind-blowing power of killer whales, the questionable logic behind shark tank diving, and some absolutely wild stats on what’s actually most likely to kill you (spoiler: not what you think).

Also: fermented foods, the magic of vinegar, and Joe Dub blesses us with vintage 1988 dinosaur trading cards — complete with original gum. Naturally, Mike eats the 37-year-old fossilized sugar slab like it’s a fine wine. Crunch level: gravel.

Oh, and by the time this episode drops, Tony’s dropping his first single of the summer! 🎶🔥

Grab your cards, your kombucha, and your irrational fear of sharks — it’s a good one.

Cheers!

Ep. 235: X Marks the Simulation

June 07, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Entertainment, Family, Life, Podcast, Politics, Sports

Tony’s first full day off school? Spent in a music-fueled frenzy until 4AM! Meanwhile, Mike earned a day off and soaked in the Denver Art Museum like a classy gent. 🎨🎧

We talk:

  • Album update: first song done ✅, live shows coming 🎤, and 10 unreleased tracks dropping all summer long ☀️

  • Korean soap operas are WILD right now. Trust us.

  • Pigeon-guided missiles. Yes, that was real. 🐦💣

  • The weird and ancient origins of the symbol “x”

  • Radiation exposure and why you might glow with curiosity

  • Could we ever run out of music? Not if math has anything to say about it 🎶📊

  • Simulation theory: Are we all just Sims with better graphics?

  • Swearing: Every culture does it. Let’s f***ing talk about why.

  • Tony’s debate-watching confession and a Graham Hancock vs. Flint Dibble showdown 🧠💥

  • Elon vs. Trump: Beef of the Billionaires

  • AI musicians… is Tony out of a job soon?

  • That Japanese soldier who never stopped fighting the war. For real.

  • Why maps are lying to us

  • Aerogel. LOOK. IT. UP.

  • And quantum mechanics makes a strong case that… we’re probably in a simulation.

Cheers!

Episode 234: Dominique Gordon: Rockin’ Playlists, Nineties Fades & Finding Your People

June 05, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar

The amazingly talented, down-to-earth Dominique Gordon joins us this week—our second-ever guest in show history! 🙌 Dom does it all: author 📚, poet ✍️, songwriter 🎶, performer 🎤... and now, aspiring high school counselor 🎓 and budding stand-up comic 🎭.

We talked music influences (My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and more 🤘), why being Black and loving rock music still raises eyebrows in some circles 👀, and what it means to find your creative voice—even if it sounds more Bob Dylan than MJ 😅.

Also in the mix:

  • First-ever music purchases 💿 (prepare to cringe 😬)

  • Hi-top fades and 90s hairdos 💈👑

  • Why being the boss kinda sucks sometimes 👔📉

  • Tony’s flashbacks to teaching during COVID 🧼🦠

  • Mike’s existential Taxi Driver rewatch 🚕💭

  • Dom’s leap into education (at the same age Tony made his!) 🧠✨

  • The mystery of who actually gets polled in polls 🤷‍♂️📊

  • Fossil fuels… yikes ⛽😬

  • And yes—flying cars, obviously 🚗💨🛸

This one’s packed with laughs, insights, and that sweet Saturday morning vibe ☕🎧. Let’s gooo!

Cheers!

🎙 Episode 233 — Allergies, AI Girlfriends & the Mandela Mind Melt

May 31, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Community, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast

It’s our first-ever Monday episode (Memorial Day vibes!), and Tony’s already losing a fight to pollen — seriously, someone get this man some local honey. Mike’s gearing up to work the upcoming Dirty Heads triple-head show in Colorado, but we still found time to unpack way too many topics, including:


🌪 Shifting weather patterns & why your joints are better forecasters than the Weather Channel

 🤖 AI girlfriends, including YouTuber Alex Stokes, who built his a robot body (because, of course)

 🍑 STIs on the rise among seniors (whoa, Grandma!)

 🎩 The Mandela Effect — why did we all swear the Monopoly guy had a monocle?! (Ace Ventura was the proof)

 💊 Neuro gum, watermelon, jicama, and other ways we’re convincing ourselves we’re “healthy”

 🐍 What if snakes, spiders, and predators were enormous? Who would animals vote for if they ran elections?

 🏀 And yes… we’re salty. How did Joker not get MVP?!


Plus: Antarctica isn’t what you think, professional iceberg movers are real, and Mike & Tony wonder if they should pivot to being line-standers for cash.

Hit play — we’re bringing the weird this week!


Cheers!

Episode 232: The Box of Tickets: A Journey Through Time (and Lawn Poop)

May 24, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Comedy, Colorado, Conversational, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Podcast

This week, Mike busted out his legendary Box of Tickets — a treasure trove he’s kept nearly his whole life — and took us on a hilarious, nostalgic, and occasionally weird trip through time.

We sift through everything:
🎢 Six Flags Elitch Gardens, 2001 (Mike was 19, Tony was 21 — peak awkwardness)
💾 Remember Y2K panic? Yeah, we went there.
🎶 A concert from just last February popped up — ancient history, obviously.
👻 Ghost stories in old buildings.
🏒 University of Denver hockey games from 1995?!
🎬 Watching Spawn in the theater back in the day.

Oh — and Tony tells the absolutely insane story about the time his roommate invited homeless people inside… and one of them left a surprise on the front lawn. You’ll want to hear this one.

Buckle up for a memory-fueled ride with laughs, stories, and a dash of lawn chaos.

Cheers!

Episode 231: Pickle Juice, Parrots, and Flaming USBs

May 10, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Music, Podcast

It’s that time again—grab a Dr. Pepper, toss in a splash of pickle juice (wait, what?), and settle in for another chaotic ride with Mike and Tony.


Mike kicks things off with a true crime story straight outta Breckenridge: a coworker’s car got robbed at a conference, and someone made off with thousands in museum donations. Oh, and there were no security cameras—because of course there weren’t.


Meanwhile, Tony’s beefing with his third stapler of the school year. Middle schoolers: undefeated.


Tony’s also officially back in the studio recording his new album, so expect some upcoming social media action (and probably at least one video of him singing barefoot on a rug).


We also dive into parrot drama (yes, parrots): one was involved in a murder trial, another made a neighbor call the cops, and Mike reveals his very first parakeet experience.


Plus:

    •    The great gorilla vs. 100 men debate just won’t die

    •    The domestication of cats (and why they’ve never respected you)

    •    Tony’s new science podcast obsession

    •    Zombie apocalypse weaponry

    •    A preserved dinosaur from 10 million years ago

    •    Kids lighting computers on fire with pencils (WHY?!)

    •    And of course, the eternal struggle of teachers just trying to get basic supplies without selling a kidney.


Another unfiltered episode packed with curiosity, chaos, and questionable beverages.


⸻

Cheers!

Episode 230: Murder, Music, and a 43,000-Year-Old Shrub

May 03, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Community, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Music, Podcast

This week, Mike announces his latest side hustle: custom 3D-printed guitar picks—because what every musician needs is a pick made by a guy who loathes geese. Meanwhile, Tony is officially back in the music game with an album dropping this fall and plans to hit the stage again (watch out, Denver!).


We go deep on TikTok drumming prodigies, ancient nightmare fuel like 5-foot scorpions and 42-foot snakes, and the terrifyingly casual way psychopaths and sociopaths roam the world. Also: how many people actually get away with murder? Seems like probably a lot.


Then it’s Gorilla vs. Human—a cultural moment we couldn’t ignore. We each take a side, and no, it’s not the one you’d expect. Plus: a 43,000-year-old shrub in Tanzania that’s still kicking, and a breakdown of the personality differences between Pan troglodytes and Pan paniscus (aka: aggressive war chimps vs peaceful sexual chimps). Trippy stuff!


It’s chaos. It’s curious. It’s The Mike and Tony Show.

Cheers!

m&t


PS

We’ll be trying some new intro music over the next several weeks. Hit us up in the comments if you hear one you like.

Episode 229: The Avery Jacob Frequency

April 26, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Community, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast


It’s Friday night in Colorado, the weather’s going haywire, and everyone’s battling a chest cold (forgive the occasional cough!). But that didn’t stop us from sitting down with the powerful rapper, bassist, songwriter, frontman, teacher, and free thinker—Avery Jacob.


Tony and Avery quickly discover a mutual connection through Denver drum phenom Alex Armstrong—turns out it really is a small world.


In this episode, we dive into deep conversation about creativity, purpose, and the art of teaching the next generation. Avery opens up about his creative process, the key to making timeless music, and what fuels his drive. We also explore the spiritual side of music, staying grounded through life’s chaos, and the value of flexibility in chasing fulfillment.


Then we get into Avery’s thoughts on neonatalism, his fear of snakes, and the great philosophical debate: can you separate the artist from the art? Oh—and the most important question of all (at least to Avery): what’s his favorite cheese? Tune in to find out.


Another episode in the books, and we’re stoked to share it with you. Avery Jacob is a force, and it’s always an honor having him on the show.

Episode 228: Fat Trak - Adorable Tracks and Unreleased Heat

April 19, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Community, Denver, Music, Podcast

On a snowy Friday night following an 84-degree day (only in Denver, right?), we welcomed back fan-favorite guest, producer, beatmaker, and all-around solid dude—Fat Trak! He brought along some seriously adorable music created by his students, plus he blessed us with two exclusive unreleased tracks he finished just the night before.

Tony admits he loves to freestyle to Fat Trak’s beats… so naturally, Fat calls him out to drop a verse on the spot. Did Tony deliver? Well, you’ll have to listen and judge for yourself. Let us know in the comments!

Fat also shares some stories from his recent trip to Japan, where he went digging for records—and explains how those finds are shaping his upcoming release. He opens up about the emotions fueling the project, and then plays a track that left us almost speechless. (C’mon, we’re a podcast… we’ve always got something to say!)

This episode was a ride—heart, humor, and straight-up heat. Fat Trak showed up and showed out, letting us get to know him even better in his second visit to The Mike and Tony Show.

Oh, and we managed to sneak in some listener-submitted Dad jokes, Fun Facts, and a few other surprises too.

Cheers,

Episode 227: Pyramids, Landlines & Paleo Predators

April 16, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Podcast

Tony’s waist-deep in CMAS testing, but it’s a beautiful Saturday morning—so the mics are hot and the nonsense is flowing!

This week: Mike’s getting lean for summer, Tony’s wife is running a full-time renovation empire, and Mike took a little field trip to the History of Colorado Museum. That somehow led us into a deep dive on the joys of having multiple landline phones in the same house in the 1990s.

We also covered the Denver Nuggets’ firing of head coach Michael Malone, the sudden collapse of a 100-year-old, long-preserved Mexican pyramid (thanks, global warming), and had a chilling conversation about an extinct wolf the size of a grizzly bear.

All that craziness, Fun Facts, the Trump Tariffs, and much, much more!

Thanks for listening!

Episode 226: "Rooted in Reality"

April 12, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Community, Conversational, Podcast, Politics

Episode 226: “Rooted in Reality”


In this episode, we sit down with Staff Sargeant Lacy McDonald and Raven for a deep and wide-ranging conversation that touches on everything from food sustainability to the state of education in America. Lacy shares powerful insights from his work with The Big Green Dow and Kimbal Musk, and reflects on the impact he’s had—and continues to have—on the people around him. Raven takes us into her world of homesteading in Humboldt, California, offering a unique perspective on living closer to the earth and questioning the fragility of modern society.


We explore what it means to live without modern luxuries, the importance of knowing where your food comes from, and the glaring lack of Black men in education. Along the way, we confront our own missteps—apologizing for getting duped by misinformation about ancient structures—and talk about the broader issue of how social media can distort the truth. We also touch on recent political headlines, including Trump’s alarming comments about a potential third term, and return to a central theme: the importance of learning and staying grounded in what’s real.


This episode is a thoughtful reminder of the power of intentional living, honest conversation, and critical thinking.

Cheers!

Episode 225: Sneakers, Pyramids, and Psychedelics

March 29, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Life, Podcast

This week, we sat down for a Saturday morning podcast in the middle of spring break—evidenced by Tony almost sleeping through the recording. We talked March Madness, funny college team names, comfortable sneakers, and the mind-blowing discovery of a 2-kilometer-deep structure under the Pyramid of Giza. Naturally, this led us down a rabbit hole of what it all means for human history, leaving us with way more questions than answers. The only thing we do know for sure? Love and compassion is the way!

We also dove into wild weed and mushroom experiences and their possible connection to something bigger. Plus, how a few key differences between Plato and Confucius might explain cultural divides between China and the West. Throw in some dad jokes, insane internet videos, jellyfish, a shoutout to the very real Museum of Failure, Fun Facts, and much more.

Thanks for hanging with two regular dads.

Episode 224: Reggae, Inflation, and a Kangaroo in Colorado

March 23, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Podcast

Mike returns from Reggae Rise Up in Florida with wild stories, including a last-minute tire change that almost derailed the whole trip. We discuss the legendary Dave Foral of Dirty Heads—his art, his music, and his general awesomeness. Then things take a turn: museum glass so invisible it might be a conspiracy, the Department of Education getting deconstructed like a flimsy Ikea shelf, and why no major political figures seem to be scrutinizing the current presidency. Tony drops a shocking story about a beloved ex-student charged with attempted murder, we sing the praises of Khan Academy, and—wait for it—there was a kangaroo on the loose in Colorado?! Plus, crazy animal encounters, inflation rants, and all the usual nonsense.

Good to be back at it friends!

Episode 223 – Gaming Drama, Gym Rats & Telepathic Wonders

March 01, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Podcast

Mike has drama from The Last War Survival Mobile video game affecting his personal life. This sparks a deep dive into the wild world of pay-to-play gamers who drop thousands just to dominate. Meanwhile, Tony is back in the gym, but Mike flexes harder—because apparently, he has three gyms. The guys debate morning vs. evening workouts, the power of coffee motivation, and the benefits of shaking things up with novel exercises.


Also on deck: the mind-blowing Telepathy Tapes podcast, where non-speaking autistic individuals communicate through actual telepathy—no joke, this one is insane. They also explore the true definition of love (spoiler: it’s all about unity), the absurdity of AI-generated nonsense online, and how identity shapes art. Plus, perfect pitch, viral adults in superhero costumes, and—wait for it—people out here smoking mushrooms and ramen?! The world is officially off the rails.


Strap in for another episode of The Mike and Tony Show—packed with laughs, deep thoughts, and the usual ridiculousness!


Cheers!

Episode 222: Elon, Underground Tunnels, and Catching Your Own… You Know

February 28, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Podcast, Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational

This week on The Mike and Tony Show, we kick things off with the daily struggle: waking up late, forgetting everything, and sprinting out the door like your hair's on fire. From there, we dive into Elon Musk’s involvement with the new administration, the speed of the internet (and how it determines your video game dominance), and the dark financial hole that is Roblox. 


We also talk basketball, being the biggest guys in the friend group, and the undeniable truth that short people are way tougher than they look. Then, we salute the legendary Staff Sergeant Lacy McDonald before pondering an age-old mystery: how many cows are in a single hamburger? The answer may disturb you. Speaking of disturbing, we also tackle the weirdest confession ever made on live radio—a guy who has always caught his own poop before it hits the toilet. Yeah, you read that right. Plus, a look at why couples playfully roasting each other is actually healthy.


It’s a wild ride this week—hit play and hang on!


Cheers!
