Episode 251: Sand Fleas, Smart Crows & Acid No-Hitters

October 25, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Dating, Denver, Life, Music, Podcast

Tony survives a horrendous weed trip and swears off the stuff for good 😵💨, while Mike returns from Mexico with legs that look like they lost a war with a sand flea army 🦟😂. He’s still somehow the life of the party — and already planning his retirement south of the border 🇲🇽.

The guys also dive into some wild headlines:
🐦 Crows hold grudges and might be as smart as your 7-year-old.
📺 MTV finally signs off after 44 years — RIP to music videos.
⚾️ Dock Ellis once pitched a perfect game on LSD (no-hitter on a high).
👶 A shocking update on Tupac’s “Brenda’s Got a Baby” — the real baby was found through Ancestry.com after decades.

This one’s got everything: pain, redemption, science, baseball, and poetic justice — basically “The Mike & Tony Show” in a nutshell.

Cheers!

Episode 248: Reggae Roots, Weed Clouds, and Potato Murders

September 27, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Conversational, Denver, Family, Life, Music, Podcast

Saturday morning vibes and the podcast table is BACK, baby. The studio feels right again.

We kick things off with a reggae report: John Brown’s Body + Giant Walking Robots = one of the best shows we’ve seen in ages. The openers were solid for a young band, but when the headliners hit the stage? Thirty years of experience slapped you right in the face. So rootsy, so groovy, and one of the best bass players Tony has ever heard. Meanwhile, the weed was next-level nuclear. Mike and Tony were absolutely barbecued. About 40% of the patio was passing joints around like candy, and only one person had a cigarette. Times have changed.

Of course, guns came up again—cue the internet comment section meltdown. But the real bombshell? Tony’s new album finally has a release date: November 7th. After three cover/name changes, Huckleberry Surprise is locked in stone. He explains what it’s like recording brand-new songs versus ones you’ve played for years. Possible live release party? Maybe solo acoustic with some guest artists. Stay tuned.

Tony also resurrected his “doomed” Facebook page after nearly a year of hacker hell, thanks to one random phone prompt that actually worked. Miracles exist.

We round things out with:

Tony’s traumatic paper route story (toxin exposure is real, people).
A horrifying tale of an entire family wiped out by… potatoes?!
And astronauts, who apparently live inside a time warp.

It’s a weird one, folks. Pour some coffee, spark one if that’s your lane, and buckle up.

Cheers!

Episode 247: From Football Fields to Front Yards

September 21, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Podcast

It’s a Sunday morning pod — mark that one on your bingo card! This week Mike and Tony kick things off with Bears vs. Cowboys (house divided, anyone?) before spiraling into everything from fantasy football to why Curry haters need to relax. We question the sanity of planting grass in the first place, wonder how the FCC is still a thing, and ask why Jimmy Kimmel is suddenly everywhere.

Other detours include:

AI videos and the friend who can’t tell they’re fake 🤖
Tony battling Colorado hills on a regular bike while his wife zooms past on an e-bike 🚴‍♂️⚡
Urban sprawl, Vegas in the desert, and whether the plains will all be gone someday 🌆
Reggae’s deep love of artwork 🎨🎶
The teachers who shaped us (both the worst and the secretly awesome ones) 🍎
Mike’s epic 97 sleep score and the secret behind it 😴

It’s classic Mike & Tony: football, philosophy, and just enough nonsense to get you through your Sunday.

Cheers!

Episode 220 - From Beater Cars to Big Questions

February 01, 2025 by Mike & Tony Pearce & Dollar in Colorado, Comedy, Community, Conversational, Denver, Entertainment, Life, Podcast

Mike is back in the studio! This week, we take a nostalgic ride down memory lane, reflecting on The Mike and Tony Show’s humble beginnings—from recording in a basement that looked like a crime scene to our now-finished studio. We catch up on some wild stories, like past guest Francisco Espinoza tearing his bicep and waiting two days to see a doctor (ouch!).

We also dive into the glory days of driving total junkers—Mike’s infamous little blue hatchback 323, a car that was given to him for free and then stolen three times, plus the terrifying car crash he somehow walked away from. Tony shares his teenage driving fail, sliding into an intersection and stalling out. Good times!

But it’s not all laughs—we get into the phases of parenthood, how life changes as your kids grow, and ponder some deep stuff: why are so many powerful people into dark, twisted things? What’s the nature of existence? How do planets bloom with life? And how many forms of life could exist out there in the infinite universe?

It’s a wild ride of stories, laughs, and big questions—don’t miss it!

Cheers!
