It’s Episode 333, which means Needless to Say is halfway to hell. And after the first 20 or so minutes of this episode, you’ll see why. The guys have always been equal-opportunity offenders, but this might take the prize. Then, just to calm the waters, they decide to let artificial intelligence choose some skull topics, and let appropriating intelligence choose a few more.

After an unplanned week off, the guys reconvened to catch up on the biggest headline of the week, Craig’s onstage standup debut. Yeah, they covered a few other topics, like Matt smoking tires, Brad smoking plants, and Dave smoking his plumbing. But Craig never let them veer too far from his amazingly bright spotlight.

This week, the guys are down a man, but they replaced him with a well-trained Yeti. That’s right, John is back, helping to take Brad’s place for a week. And both of his lines are phenomenal -- trust us. Along the way, they cover their usual array of nonsense about family, farts, fellow coworkers, and much more.

After two weeks in Ancient Rome, the guys fast-forwarded a few hundred years to talk about gross, juvenile things. For 20 minutes. Right at the beginning of the episode. Before they even had a chance to say hello.

The guys are back to form this week, finishing their comprehensive discussion of the EPIC ”Private Gladiator” series. But, before they get to that, they discuss sick and/or dead pets, weak pant seams, HR best practices, and Craig’s ongoing journey to stand-up comedy dominance.

This week, the guys all had stuff to discuss, but all cobblestone roads led right back to ... well ... adult cinema. It turns out Matt likes a little bit of history in his visual biology. And, after 30 minutes debating the issue, the rest of the guys agreed.

After a week off because the guys battled pinkeye, COVID, arthritis, and vaginitis, they reconvened to discuss topics related to the DMV, AAA, and several entities in Washington, DC. They also recap their Sevendust concert, and the merits of introducing children to the metal lifestyle. And yes, you’ll get to hear about ”Pam.”

The guys enhance their hang this week when their buddy Dakota sits in. Even though he only says 11 words, Dakota definitely brought out the best in the guys, discussing beards, camping, white shoes, and family. Then they play the most disgusting ”Would You Rather...” ever recorded. How bad? Let’s just say we learn a lot about the guys’ views on hygiene.

You know what the NTS guys don’t discuss enough? Wrestling. You know what they discuss too much? Dumps. You know when the magic happens? When wrestling and dumps occupy the same headlines. On a day when Vince McMahon was revealed to be the person we always knew he was, the guys got together to discuss Dave’s latest bathroom extravaganza, and how it tied into one of the most disgusting headlines of the week.

Recently, the NTS guys received a review from a listener who described the show as ”a great hang.” This episode fits that description to the letter. Some nights, these guys get hyper-focused. Other nights, they go where the conversation leads them. It’s not easy to go from stories of winter tree work to middle-aged birthdays, to chewing cud, to Jane Seymour. But they do it so effortlessly, it’s like there was no outline at all.

Praise be, NTS! Lord knows the guys didn’t need to do another episode of religious jokes, but that didn’t stop them from getting touched by God this week. Matt had his revelation in line to buy milk. Craig continued his journey into Episcopal bliss. Dave saw the light while explaining humping to a six-year-old. And Brad discussed his coworker, which turned into a stroke of genius.

The craptastic four are back from the holiday break to waste your mental bandwidth. This time around, we learn about Craig’s new church, trashy elves on shelves, celebrity encounters, and another amazing story from the archives of the legendary Uncle Ray.

If you’re new to the show, consider this a great starting point. If you’re not, it’s still a good sampler platter for the year that was. Jesus-themed chain restaurants, Dave’s murder chairs, computer lab nudes, frat house planned parenthood, and much more -- this was the year that was for Needless to Say.

After Craig’s birthday episode -- which you’ll hear soon enough -- it was time to dust off a few NTS Christmas traditions. After a recap of the surprise 50th birthday, the guys (and gal) read a second collaborative holiday story and break out the buzzers for another round of NTS Jeopardy.

This week, Brad took the night off, leaving Matt, Craig, and Dave to fend for themselves. So, after doing three amazing segments before hitting ”record” the guys managed to discuss overly observational children, High Karate, Spotify Unwrapped, and much more.

It was the day after Thanksgiving, so what were the guys thankful for? Family, friends, peanut butter pie, TikTok designers, colonoscopies, corn digestion, House MD, Munchausen’s Syndrome, and ruining Santa Claus for children. Happy holidays, all.

This week, the guys give thanks for a lot of things -- Matt’s love of Creed’s poetry, Dave’s college pornography, Brad’s nasal entropy, and Craig’s looming colonoscopy. It’s a love letter to the ’90s.

This week, the guys were still recovering from their visit with the Official True Story Bro podcast, but that didn’t stop them from the usual business. Craig finally gets to discuss RI Comic-Con, Dave deals with his new identity, Matt targets one solitary customer, and Brad sits on the sidelines, sniping when appropriate.

It was Rhode Island Comic-Con weekend, and the Official True Story Bro podcast was in town to celebrate. YES, they discussed the event, but not even close to the way you’d expect. So put aside any thoughts about celebrities, comic books, and autographs, and make room for a loud, noisy, hysterical, and entirely one-sided dating episode you won’t forget. (Especially if you know Dave.)

After a Halloween episode full of creative energy, the guys chose a lower-key approach this time around. But that doesn’t stop them from diving deep into topics like high school ”decades weeks,” sexism at car dealerships, dangerous vehicles, and our weekend as the internet’s foremost authorities on male body parts.

As autumn sets in throughout the region, only three things are certain: Leaves will turn, temperatures will drop, and the NTS guys will read their original horror comedy movie scripts on the air.

FORE! No, this episode isn’t about golf. But the guys do manage to spend a lot of time discussing people who have skin in the game. They also spend a few minutes circumcising the reputations of some local businesses and discussing why the guys on the show need to cover their ugly faces with turtlenecks.

This week, the guys (and longtime buddy John) cover the usual array of randomness, ranging from Breaking Bad to false advertising in men’s rooms to long-time careers in tree work. If you had expectations for this week’s episode, throw them right in the Rio Grande.

This week, the NTS Four were more than up for something a little left of disgusting. From toenails to hemorrhoids to group bathroom visits to ... well, you’ll just have to listen for the rest. But if you’ve ever gone to a frat party or bobbed for apples, consider this your morning-after episode.

This week, the guys turned an empty outline into an episode Ric Flair would approve of (even if Christians won’t). So, sit back and enjoy two hours of jet flying, limo riding, kiss stealing, dwarf pissing, career gambling, sneaker creasing, Jesus joking, and gross sex shaming. WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
