  Smoothies & Prostate Finger Talk w/ Chris Distefano & Yannis Pappas

  Aug 20, 202625 min

  Carl’s off playing Food Network star, so Opie ditches Manhattan for a sweaty Brooklyn stroll with Chris Distefano… and immediately runs into Yannis. What follows is pure chaos: $8 smoothie flirting, American-flag purity tests, limp-dick philosophy, haunted Long Island death houses, sage-vs-ghosts debates, and a pilgrimage to an actual mobbed-up barber shop while everyone’s dripping sweat and questioning their ancestry. History Hyenas energy, zero chill. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/opie-carl--6679362/support .

  Opie visits Chris Distefano’s & the Edible Stroke Scare

  Aug 15, 202652 min

  Opie survives 2.5 hours of traffic hell, nearly pees in a Gatorade bottle, and storms Chris Distefano’s brand-new (completely empty, aggressively gray) Bay Ridge apartment. Cue the classic Islanders edible meltdown story, a smoothie-shop flirt mission, a judge-roasting speeding-ticket lie, fire-escape paranoia, and a neighborhood stroll that somehow involves Chinese soup, Revolutionary War graves, and Yannis. Pure chaos. Pure Bay Ridge. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/opie-carl--6679362/support .
