Episode #9 - Always Sunny, WHAM Warning Signs, & Corporate Defecation Etiquette

Episode #11 - You're Not Invited to the Cookout

This week on Frank & Hem, Hem uses his One Minute Rant to give some overdue recognition to the volunteer umpires keeping youth sports alive. The guys then break down some uniquely "guy" characteristics and debate whether certain traits are enough to get your invitation to the cookout revoked. Later, Frank and Hem take a trip down memory lane and discuss things that used to be absolutely awesome... but somehow kind of suck now. From changing traditions to modern conveniences that aren't so convenient, nothing is safe. Plus, listener shout-outs, questions, and the usual Midwest nonsense you've come to expect.

Episode #10 - Frank and Hem Do America

This week on Frank & Hem, the guys fire up a full blown Memorial Day episode packed with nostalgia, arguments, and pure American energy. Frank and Hem break down the absolute BEST and WORST parts of Memorial Day weekend — from backyard cookouts and less than ideal weather conditions, to lake season and mosquito hatches, and of course, the unofficial start of "guy grilling season." Frank then delivers this week's One Minute Rant aimed directly at streaming services and the absolute disaster live sports viewing has become. Four apps, nine passwords, buffering screens, blackout restrictions… what happened to just flipping channels like civilized people? The guys also riff on the greatest patriotic songs of all time and finish the episode with a list of real and fictional people who truly embody America. Grab a brat, crack a beer, and celebrate Memorial Day weekend with Frank & Hem.

Episode #9 - Always Sunny, WHAM Warning Signs, & Corporate Defecation Etiquette

This week on Frank and Hem, Hem kicks things off with a passionate defense of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia as the superior sitcom over The Office — and Frank may need a bird law defense attorney. The guys also shout out listeners, answer fan questions, and dive headfirst into some absolutely necessary societal debates: * Is leaving weights on gym machines a selfish act or no? * What's the proper etiquette for corporate bathroom "situations"? * Which movie quotes have permanently become part of our daily vocabulary? * George Michael and Wham! were there signs.......? Mike then somehow lands the plane by ending the episode on a positive, reflective note… like a zenned-up mob boss who just finished a self-help audiobook. Another chaotic, ridiculous, and strangely relatable episode from your favorite Midwest dads.

Episode #8 - Keep Your Head On A Swivel

This week on Frank & Hem, the guys kick off a brand new weekly segment: Frank & Hem – One Minute Rant. Frank opens the show with a completely reasonable and definitely-not-threatening letter to a school bus bully… let's just say the kid should probably keep his head on a swivel. The guys also dive into the little things that make men secretly judge other men, break down the absolute WORST sounds you can hear in your house, and somehow turn smoke detector chirps, mystery crashes, and "Dad… I threw up" into comedy gold. To close things out, Hem shares his latest bizarre infatuation, and honestly… we're a little concerned. Midwest sarcasm, dad energy, questionable opinions, and weekly nonsense — just the way you like it.

Episode #7 - One YouTube Video Away From Ruining Your Night

This week on Frank & Hem, we go deep into the internet trenches as we break down our favorite YouTube rabbit holes—the kind that start with one innocent video and somehow end three hours later with you watching grainy footage about abandoned malls or ranking backup quarterbacks from 2007. We also unveil our personal Mount Rushmore of Dad Moves—the universal behaviors that every dad eventually develops whether they want to or not. Then it's time for another blind ranking challenge as Hem takes on fast food chains, and let's just say… his #1 choice may divide the audience. We wrap things up by discussing the minor conspiracies we're slowly starting to believe. Nothing too crazy… but enough to make you raise an eyebrow and say, "Okay… hear me out." As always, strong opinions, questionable logic, and absolutely zero research. Welcome back to Frank & Hem. Reach out to the guys at FrankandHemPod@gmail.com [FrankandHemPod@gmail.com] and the guys will bring up your suggestions on the show!
