What happens when two friends hit the road without a crucial RV feature? Join Scott Hawkins and Andrew Gaer as they recount their whimsical road trip escapades, which led them from Walmart parking lots to less-than-glamorous motels. From crafting a ridiculous song about a "pooper tank" explosion to dreaming up a stage musical with Lin-Manuel Miranda or AI, our tales are guaranteed to amuse. We'll share how our knack for funny tunes just might outshine our attempts at romantic songwriting, with plenty of laughs along the way.

Venturing further, we chat about the surprising satisfaction found in being average—like mastering wakeboarding just enough to impress those who haven’t tried it. Society's obsession with comparing ourselves to the best often undermines our unique skills, and we discuss how recognizing our strengths can lead to fulfillment. And of course, our journey wouldn't be complete without a stop in San Antonio, where we reflect on the Alamo's storied past and soak up the enchanting charm of the Riverwalk. Get ready for an episode full of unexpected twists and thoughtful reflections.
