The final episode of 2025 is here and we really wrap up the year with hitting all kinds of topics. We're planning for something special for episode 200, so let us know if you have any fun ideas!

 Here's our Christmas message for you: don't take any of our medical advice, or maybe any of our advice at all. That's our Christmas gift to you...honesty. We talk about the recently redacted Epstein files, live, love and the pursuit of happiness.

 Old men's fashion. Let me say that again - this episode we talk about what we should wear. From snakeskin boots to hawaiian shirts with a suit. Wow...do we need help. Also, online shopping requiring a tip? Never!

 It is more than 5 years since we podcasted in person. This time we are back. That pandemic can't hold us down! Laugh along with us as we catch up on Kelly's latest high end camera purchase and talk about the state of the healthcare system.

 This week's theme music is my original composition, Murderous Biker Escapes to Mexico, and in keeping with that tradition, we discuss our Thanksgiving celebrations as well as Kelly and Danny's time in New York City. What does that have to do with bikers or Murder? ...Listen and find out! Maybe nothing.

 Holidays are upon us and through all the doom and gloom of shopping and political news, there is still a bright spot. The local holiday carnival. Happy Thanksgiving, and remember turkey is cheaper than beef this year!

 Back in action for number 192! We talk about Ozempic face, Obese ICE chases, the dating benefits of mandatory military service and a hot new show that Kelly is going to develop. It's education, it's comedy, it is funky theme music... it's The Cocktale Hour!

 They can't all be winners, right? That's what I tell myself as we skyrocket towards episode 200. I'd say to let us know what you think, but that is rare, isn't it. Let's talk about being censored by the current government for our ideology and how healthcare has become my voting single issue. Good luck out there friend!

 Months, I tell you. That is how long it has been. We are back with disinformation, some funny stuff and more educational commentary than you can shake a stick at. We should be good to go until the FCC shuts us down, so hang in there America!

Summer keeps plugging along and we are talking about Kelly's new car and how John could stop talking about the Epstein files if someone gave him a good healthcare option. Wasn't that something that the orange guy promised a decade ago? Happy Birthday Mick Jagger and please welcome our new sponsor, Clem's Truck Stop at the crossroads of Highway 1 and 16 in Canada. Where all the best lot lizards hang out.

 Happy 249th America, we wish you the best. This week we talk about what makes someone cool based on an article Kelly found online. Danny realizes painfully that he has no style and wonders if it is too late to look like Billy Jack from the 1971 classic. In terms of Hedonistic, Powerful, Extroverted Adventurousness we continue to realize that we are 13 year old boys at heart.

 Admittedly it has been a good few month hiatus, but we are back in action, finding our voice again. Do you want to hear about politics, ICE raids, protests, the loss of the rule of Law in America, how we are headed for a dictatorship....us either. We're going to talk candidly why we've been out of touch since March and get into the really important issues, like blood pressure and Yellow #5. Let's go!

 This is the last episode of the Spring, so we've packed it chock full of extra nonsense. Danny is oddly concerned about the environment, Kelly is ditching his gas stove and John just wants to make a quick buck by exploiting elderly porn stars...what else is new? Oh, we're also looking for a new intern so if you know someone....

 I'm resisting calling this episode the Frequent Jerkers Club or anything else do do with Social Security. Frankly, I don't want to have my passport flagged, although a light detention after a Tesla protest would give me more time to catch up on my reading. This episode posted a week late.

 We're back after a couple of weeks with renewed vigor. Are you tired of political bullshit and the pontificating opinions of Washington insiders worrying about your future? You've come to the right podcast because we only pontificate on how much money Danny could make on OnlyFans if he started a career as ......Speedo Man! Enjoy. Oh, if you want some Cocktale Hour Merch, search Cocktale Hour on the Etsy. I've got some stuff there.

 Another new theme song as we dig into the nuances of acting, Tyler Perry, De Niro and how great Yacht Rock really is. Stay safe and happy out there! If you need a Cocktale Hour t-shirt, check out the Etsy store.

 Today we talked more about AI than politics, thank you Jesus! I made a YouTube video so that you can see the images from the podcast. Either search Cocktale Hour Elephant Dresser, or go here: https://youtu.be/z3dlvquFK10

 Did you say new theme music that really embodies the 13 year olds that inhabit our old skeletons? You got it! We also dig into some political issues and edutainment as always. Enjoy!

 We are safe from the fires in LA so far, but not everyone has been so lucky. It is not Gavin Newsome's fault, and neither was it predicted in Genesis 19:23–29, so if you are not going to say it with love, don't say it.  We will say all the funny stuff, and we didn't even get to roll our out ejaculation notice joke. Rats. By the way, there is a new theme song courtesy of some AI audio generating website. I dig it.

Happy first podcast of 2025! They can't all be bangers, but if you are old and looking at life changes like we are, Kelly's Medicare adventure might be considered informative. Watch out for radicalized vets in 2025, that's my advice.
