Guys of a Certain Age

29/08/2025

It’s family reunion season, or so it seems. Jay has been to one in the last month, missed another, and is heading to a third. Robbie went north for the annual Coblentz-Con reuniting a baker’s dozen brothers. Perhaps one day all three Guys will have a reunion and be able to record together 2 week...

This week, the Guys take a long overdue return to the worlds of Dungeons and Dragons-not the recent movie or the old cartoon from the 80s, but the legendary role-playing game. With Jay out, Robbie and Art are joined by Art's older son, Will, to talk about the history and variants of the phenomenon t...

There’s no way around this descriptor: this episode is Fantastic. But be-Four The Guys get to The Thing they came to talk about, there are notable Geeks of the Week to mention. Jay heard about a Hamilton cast member who’s been there from day one, and hopes the same will happen to him in this pod...

It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here! The first major film in the DCG (DC Gunn-iverse, for those not caught up on the latest lingo, like Jay) hit theaters and Superman is back. The Guys had high expectations and some were met. Others, maybe not so much. But they agree that major steps - esp...

Though we couldn't gather the entire podcast staff, Robbie and Art still managed to produce an episode that should strike a chord with music-loving listeners. Following Robbie's recent visit to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and the iconic FAME Recording Studios, the two Guys take note of the incredible am...

First, there were the Untouchables. Then the Incredibles. Later came the Expendables: 1, 2, 3 and 4. (Apparently Stallone can’t be involved in something without multiple sequels.) Dare we say the GOCA-bles? Probably not. Let’s move on to the Regrettables and quit while we’re behind. This week ...

It’s a race to the finish in today’s episode. Only six more Regrettable Superheroes left in the book before Jay will have to create another segment, only a few more degrees before Mississippi weather hits 100 (that’s temperature AND humidity), and a challenge to see who’s seen the most auto ...

After a brief-ish primer on barbecue styles in North Carolina and beyond, Jay dives into even more food talk in his Geek of the Week, with another movie-focused restaurant that is actually reachable from GOCA headquarters. Robbie talks about a remake of a childhood favorite TV show and the placement...

The World waited in great anticipation for Season 2 of one of the greatest series in the Star Wars Universe. Andor finally came back. Andor kicked Empire bottoms. The World is abundantly satisfied, especially now that The Guys are finally together in trio form to share their thoughts, and/or their f...

It’s the mostly annual outdoor cooking episode, an early summer tradition that usually occurs when Art is absent from the studio (though not from the heart.) This year, however, Jay and Robbie are joined by Chef Mark Coblentz, who happens to be Robbie’s actual offspring and is known throughout t...

With Jay Reed out, Robbie and Art launch another rant session. Inspired by the latest Dr. Who season, especially the finale, the two Guys discuss series and movies that didn't seem to know or respect their audiences. No franchise is safe from their ire. (Except of course, their own podcast!) This we...
