Ever feel like you’ve got 37 tabs open in your brain at once? Same.

The Open Tabs Podcast is Billy and Joe talking through whatever’s currently running in the background of millennial life — tech overload, nostalgia, culture shifts, ADHD spirals, convenience culture, dad jokes, and the occasional deep dive into something completely unexpected.

Every episode opens with the tabs we can’t stop thinking about… and closes with the ones we’re finally ready to let go.

No script. No pretending. Just real conversations that go wherever they want.

  • RIP Blockbuster, MySpace, Ringtones? | Open Tabs Ep. 7
    Mar 31 2026

    Welcome back to The Open Tabs Podcast! 🎙️

    In Episode 7, Joe and Billy go full nostalgia mode — from Blockbuster nights and MySpace pages to dial-up internet, ringtones, and phone books.

    They also kick things off with a surprisingly wholesome (and funny) conversation about police departments crushing social media, before diving into Facebook Marketplace chaos, MRE survival food, and the weird things that have quietly disappeared from everyday life.

    If you grew up in the late 90s / early 2000s… this one hits hard.

  • Chuck Norris Isn’t Who You Think… (Plus AI Is Taking Over) | Open Tabs Podcast Ep. 6
    Mar 24 2026

    Chuck Norris is more than a meme… and this conversation proves it.

    In this episode of The Open Tabs Podcast, we start with the legend himself—Chuck Norris—and unpack the real story behind the jokes. From martial arts mastery to character, discipline, and faith, we explore what made him truly iconic.

    But then things take a turn…

    We shift into the rise of artificial intelligence—and how it’s already impacting real life:

    • Using AI for mental health support
    • The surprising benefits (and risks) of talking to AI
    • Driverless cars taking over Atlanta
    • AI replacing jobs—including Uber drivers
    • Drone deliveries and what the future might look like

    This episode goes from funny… to thoughtful… to slightly terrifying.

    And somewhere along the way, we ask:
    👉 Are we becoming more advanced… or more dependent?
