    Jan 7 2026
    #318. Happy New Year! We’re back after a fun OR relaxing holiday break with our families, and we catch up on what made this holiday season special for us. Are you glad to see 2025 end? Does a new year feel like a new start to you? Do you make resolutions? Let us know via the LinkTree below as we share some of our thoughts heading into 2026. After the break we discuss streaming including Stranger Things and the potential (or not) of longevity for the brand. Also on tap is a little on sports and some ok and fine movies such as Not Just a Goof, Regretting You, Goodbye June, and The Best You Can. We hope you enjoy! Until next time, be kind to each other.

    From the Middle - Christmas Sensations, Customer Service, and Classroom Sharks
    Dec 18 2025
    #317. Christmas is about a week out and we’re so ready and living in the moment. Our kids are winding down school and Kory and his wife are looking to invest in the cookie business. White elephants are alive and well and the laundromat is looking better than ever! There’s a lot to love. And then there’s the delivery companies and the customer service of online retailers who perhaps shouldn’t be in the business. Oh What Fun. But at least our streaming discussion is right on time. We’ve said it once, we’ll say it again, Hawkeye is a Christmas movie and you should watch it among your seasonal rotation. Do that, report back to us via the LinkTree, and until next time, be jolly to each other.

    #316. If Martha Stewarting your own yogurt isn’t for you, just give us like three minutes and we’ll dive into a magical conversation led by Dillon and his recent family trip to Disney. From tear-inducing moments with his daughter to Dillon finding his own youth at Galaxy’s Edge, we experience the joy with him. I dare you to try listening without smiling to yourself as the heat gets turned up in your heart cockles. Also, a Florida man is driving an interesting billboard for his two different businesses and more than Dillon’s heart cockles were warmed at a rest area’s men’s room. Expel your lungs, sit in front of your most comforting air purifier, and enjoy this episode! Thank you, Dillon for sharing some core memories with all of us. Speaking of Disney, did any of you catch Funday Night Football? Monster’s Inc. took over a broadcast of some NFL action and we share our thoughts! Share yours via the LinkTree below, and until next time, be kind to each other.

    #315. Now that the youngster is on vacation, Kory and Kendall can talk about backs, shoulders, and knees acting up. AI can’t yet give us newer versions of ourselves, but it sure can give new life to old music! Or perhaps you prefer good old fashioned creativity, such as Kory’s kid’s well-crafted Christmas lists. Sometimes all your child wants is a hug, and if you only knew the joy that would follow, you’d act on it sooner, like the actors in TV and film should. Speaking of wanting things sooner, we hate that getting “parked” at the drive-thru makes the company look good while taking more of your time. Black Friday isn’t Black Friday anymore, Ohio State wins (finally), Formula 1 is heating up at the right time, Frankenstein is good, and Stranger Things is trying a new marketing tactic. There’s a lot of moving parts, so keep up and chime in via the LinkTree! Until next time, be kind to each other.

    #314. Wanna hear what three middle class guys sound like when they’re bird watching? How about if Kory is still alive after running a 5k? Or what happens when a guy known to avoid confrontation finds himself challenged by drive-thru workers and inconsiderate spectators? Then listen to this episode! We share some more thoughts on fast food etiquette as well as get into some streaming with special guest Greg Oden. Part of that sentence was click-bait. But what’s not click-bait is Something’s Burning with Bert Kreischer, Squid Game: The Challenge, and Redemption. How do you handle people who get in your way? What are you watching? How many birds do you have? Let us know via the LinkTree below. Until next time, be kind to each other.

    From the Middle - Climate Control, Careless Cars, and Considered Canter

    #313. How warm to you keep your house this time of year? November in Ohio brings two things: some freezing cold temps making you worry about whether or not you disconnected your garden hoses, and a lack of guarantee that you’re finished mowing for the year. With that comes the somewhat contentious question of who gets to control the thermostat in the house and car. We talk about that. Perhaps being more comfortable in your car helps you deal with inconsiderate drivers. But you know us better than that. Also, Kory, who would always rather drive than run, is going to try a 5k this weekend with zero preparation. Thoughts and prayers are appreciated. Tune in next week to find out how that went! Until next time, be kind to each other.

    #312. Happy HalloWEEN!! Between the way we emphasize particular words and acknowledge a punnily named fudge factory, the first half of this episode would be likely to get us kicked out of 3rd grade. Thankfully we’re adults and can do whatever we want; even if that means blowing off plans because we just don’t like having plans. But how do you do that tactfully? And when is it too late to ask someone their name? After discussing our spooky festivities, we dust off the “Answers From the Middle” segment! Follow it up with some exciting baseball talk and a giant fumble of a football game, and you have a wonderful little Autumn episode to go with your spiced cider. Do you have any burning questions for us? Send them our way! The LinkTree is below. Until next time, be kind to each other.
