FLASHBACK FRIDAY: The Steve and Kyle Podcast, 6/1/21

·1 hr 13 min·5 clips
Steve unveils his dream to build a tiny house, while Kyle calls it the dumbest idea he's ever had.
The episode begins with Steve and Kyle discussing their podcast tags, humorously noting Bobcat and bourbon as frequent topics. They transition to Steve's cultural gaps, including never seeing The Dark Knight, which leads to a broader conversation about overrated franchises like Star Wars and the Beatles. Steve then recounts his recent 40th birthday celebration, including a weekend getaway without his daughter, staying in a tiny house in Northern Michigan. He describes the anxiety of leaving his toddler and the relaxation of the trip. This segues into Steve's long-term plan to buy land and build a tiny house, with Kyle repeatedly criticizing the idea as foolish. They explore tiny house kits online, debating options and costs. Later, Kyle surprises Steve with a birthday gift: a Cameo video from Bill Allen, who played Crew Jones in the 1986 BMX film Rad. Steve is thrilled, and they discuss Bill Allen's career and net worth. The episode concludes with plans for future topics, including a potential interview with Melissa Vaughn and updates on Steve's tiny house aspirations. Throughout, the hosts maintain a casual, irreverent tone with frequent digressions and inside jokes.
