    In this episode of the Big Bad Broadcast, John and Mike dive into a variety of topics ranging from politics to personal anecdotes. We kick off the show with a light-hearted jab at each other, particularly focusing on John’s sometimes rude demeanor.

    We express our gratitude to our friends in the entertainment industry, including Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling and Tommy Chong, and share some humorous insights about the current political landscape, particularly regarding Trump and his views on education. The conversation shifts to our own educational experiences, with Mike recounting his journey through community college and John sharing stories about his children’s college experiences, including the surprising rise of the University of Northern Florida.

    As we reminisce about our youth, we reflect on the pressures of high school sports and the rigorous schedules that young athletes face. Mike shares a funny story about his son’s football experience, while John reflects on his own college days, filled with mischief and a lack of focus.

    The episode takes a personal turn as I share my recent vacation to the Dominican Republic, where I encountered both the beauty of the resort and the chaos of a family-friendly atmosphere. We laugh about the absurdity of seeing 300-pound women in thongs and the challenges of enjoying a vacation amidst rowdy crowds.

    We also discuss the importance of family connections, particularly through sports, and how our experiences with our fathers have shaped our relationships with our own children. The episode wraps up with a discussion about the ups and downs of dental visits and the quirks of life, all while maintaining our signature humor and camaraderie.

  • The Big Bad Broadcast - J. L. Cauvin
    May 23 2025

    In this episode of the Big Bad Broadcast, we had the incredible opportunity to host President Donald Trump, who called in from his new jet gifted by the country of Qbert. The conversation was lively and filled with humor as we discussed everything from supplements and health fads to the absurdity of haunted dolls on eBay.

    Mike Griefer kicked off the episode with a rant about the ineffectiveness of various supplements, leading to a humorous exchange about health and wellness. Trump chimed in with his characteristic bravado, claiming he could take on a gorilla in a fight and sharing his thoughts on the state of American politics.

    We also touched on the topic of his sons, with Trump humorously lamenting Don Jr.'s sensitivity regarding his ex-wife's new relationship with Tiger Woods. The discussion then shifted to Trump's plans for reopening Alcatraz, which he whimsically renamed Alcatrump, and his views on the founding fathers and the Constitution, highlighting the sarcasm he perceives in historical documents.

    As the episode progressed, we welcomed Senator Cory Booker, who engaged in a spirited debate with John about the current political climate and the challenges facing the country. The episode concluded with comedian J.L. Covan, who shared his experiences performing in Trump-supporting venues and how he managed to connect with audiences despite their differing political views.

    Overall, this episode was a blend of comedy, political commentary, and lighthearted banter, showcasing the unique dynamic of our guests and the unpredictable nature of our discussions. Thank you for tuning in, and we hope you enjoyed this wild ride!
