The Life of an Average Joe ft Brandon Novara: Recent Episodes
Brandon Novara
This is a look into the life of an average Joe. Stories of what someone who isn’t famous goes through on a daily basis. Just because you are not a celebrity doesn’t mean you don’t have stories to tell and adventures to share
Best man, maid of honor or just a guest, how many people have been to a wedding or been involved in the wedding process and wonder why? Like what if you don’t even talk to the people that got married anymore? This weeks episode is kinda a wedding crashing show.
Summer is here and it’s time to remember what we did back when things were easier or at least different. How do we just do nothing and enjoy it? Why the plans?
Movies are in trouble on all fronts. Over budgeted unoriginal ideas both on the streaming platforms and from Hollywood. So what happens next?
The final episode had to be a long overdue email episode. I was loaded with some great comments and questions from all of you. Thank you as always.
Sometimes you just wake and already know how bad of a day you are going to have. What about bad week? Or weeks? How is that when these days come, everyone knows it and makes it tougher.

After four cancellations with my special guest, I decided to trash the show and do a random episode with random stories and thoughts.
The eclipse was a really cool and among feeling. Kinda creepy and strange but, very cool. It reminded me of another time when a weird creepy feeling came over. Still not sure what happened exactly.
Well you knew I had to talk about Diddy. I mean after all these years, his time is up . No way he gets out of this one
This week I was joined by two of my friends Joe and Jacob and we might have been drinking and talking about driving or I should say accidents we have been in. Not the bad ones or at least not ones in which someone got hurt. Just the weird wild stories that we have experienced
This past week I had a conversation with a buddy who was going through something, then another buddy and then my son had a bad day. It got me thinking about how sometimes we don't own our feelings and give them time to work themselves out. We just bury them or hide them.
Ok it started with the whole time change but, I couldn't stop there. Can we address the fact that TikTok is on the chopping block once again? Do you know what that means if the app is banned?
Marvel has had a rocky road as of late. Movies that don't work, actor changes and shows with delays. However, with a few small wins...they can be back. Those wins could be closer than you think.
In 2003 55 million people were in the dark and nobody knew why? No power, phones down and more. I was there and yeah it was wild
Ever have your car stolen? What about in daylight? Have you ever had to tell your pregnant wife? Well take it from me...it's not a good time
Late episode this week was a hectic mess but, I had to talk about something I noticed with couples, people and on social media.
Growing I got into some fights, even as an adult I have seen and been involved in some fights. These days, it's different. People don't fight the same and kids done either. So, how do we teach that fighting is something we don't do but should be ready for?
This week was an interesting one with a phone call that took me down a massive road and thought process. It's amazing to think that everyday someone is going through something bigger than what you are.
We just got a lot of new as far Star Wars heading back to the theaters and more shows on Disney+. So what's coming and should you be excited?
Parenting is hard no doubt but, why have so many parents got lazy and allow their kids to run the show? I see it everyday and it feels like it is getting worse.
It's moving day so time to call the friends and get this done. Nobody expects moving day to be great but, nobody expects a crazy car chase with two ex girlfriend's and losing mattress.
Writing a letter has changed over the years. However, the real true emotion that goes into the words on paper can never go away. That's what this episode is, an open letter to my son.

The 90's were different and so is Gen X. This week I go to the club but, the teen club. That's right, a club just for teenagers who can't drink. What could go wrong?
I ran into an old friend and man his story about getting fired had me not only puzzled but, digging back into some of my crazy stories from my jobs over the years.
Cinema has changed over the years along with Hollywood. With streaming services snatching up everything they can and movie theaters raising prices, is it ever going to change? Or go back to the good days?
Giants, The Marvels, WW3 and more. Yeah this open discussion is all over the place but figured it was a great follow up to last weeks show.
So men are supposed to be quiet, work, suck it up and don't worry. Seems easy enough but, what about all the times it just too much. The times the battery can't be charged and you don't want to charge it if you could?
The final podcast of spooky season. Sick at this end so I kept it short and sweet. Taking a look at some of the popular costumes this year and some of the old school days.
Haunted houses are a part of Halloween and the whole season. Not the real ones but ones that we all go and visit. Long lines for a 20-30 minute jump scare. But I can tell you from not only working in one, that I have seen some wild things.
It's time for a bonus episode and that's thanks to one of the best Star Wars series I have seen...Ahsoka. If you haven't seen it, move on. If you have, let's deep dive into the show, the future and Star Wars.
This week I am diving into what to watch this spooky season. From slashers to fun family scares. I got you covered so listen if you dare.
Kicking off spooky season with a trip to the one of the most haunted places in the country. Waverley Hills Sanatorium has a history of agony, death and sadness. It also has a history of ghost, creatures and the unexplained. Perfect place to go on a date.
This week I had an interesting conversation with a great friend and human being. The conversation was about the hot topic of transgenders in sports, the Hollywood trend and more.
The club scene has its own set of stories and moments that I won't forget. However, the rave scene is the one that changed me and the world I was in. Unknown locations, all night dancing, early mornings and more.
Random day to drop a podcast but it's a random episode. From the Amazon rain forest to alligators in Texas. Just a random show with some random topics for a random day
Aliens, assassins, zombie viruses and lizard people. Just some topics our lovely country talks about on a daily basis. Bust out the tin foil because it's time to talk conspiracies.
After I dropped my son off at school I stopped at a new coffee shop to relax for a few. I witness a break up and it got me thinking about the times I was dumped and the times I had to end it all. Is there ever a good way to do it? We know there is a wrong way but is it ever right?
Apple orchards, road trips, board games and late night campfire talks. Simple and yet some of the best moments I ever had. In a complicated world, you need those simple things to not only ground you but to make you see the world better.
We meet so many people in life and some will have a last impression on us, even if we feel like we lost them or can't save them. Over the years I have felt like I lost people that I tried so hard to "fix" or "save."
It was a 106 and yet Steve from "The Notes McGoats" podcast flew down to Texas to hang with me as we made our way to the House of Blues for the Killer Mike show. What could possibly go wrong? Here is the podcast to tell you.
It's the end of the season so that means it's time to talk emails, answer questions and announce some guests and upcoming shows.
The writers and actors strike is going to change the landscape of cinema. However for two major franchises, they have had issues long before. How will the MCU react to this and what is the WB/DC thinking?
Dating sucks and sometimes you find the right one but, more often than not..you don't. Sometimes you find one who is in a cult and trying to get you to be part of the "family."
Looking back at some of the cities that I have spent some serious time in and thinking about the ones I would go back to. From great food to great music, some cities have it all.
It's the 4th of July and typically a great time for summer movies. However this year the theaters are still losing money and Hollywood isn't doing so great either. This week it's movies with a little fireworks.
Oh man well it’s hot in Texas so people should stay inside and just zone out to this episode. Summer is a time for lounging by the pool, going on road trips and sneaking out of a bar because a drunk biker gang is in the bar and might kill you if you are found. Yup..that’s the summer I am talking about.
If you have seen the news at all over the last few months you have seen or heard about UFO sightings seen video releases and heard a whistleblower spew his thoughts. Well now it’s time to hear my thoughts and my own encounters with what could be the the extraterrestrial
Across The Spiderverse was not only a great film but it was groundbreaking n story writing and character development. This week we go back and look at key moments, favorite characters and more.
Look I am just going to say it, tipping has gotten out of control. Yes I believe in tipping, I have worked in the service industry most my life so trust me when I say I tip. However, it is now being forced down our throats and it’s hurting employees and employers.
We have all fallen in love, some of us more than once. Marriage, family, and kids all show is different degrees of love. However, what happens when your love is gone when it comes to relationships? What if you spent it?
Season 13 kicks off with some Marvel and Guardians of the Galaxy talk. From where the MCU is heading to how GOTG is the best Marvel trilogy out there and what James Gunn brings to the table.
The final episode of season 12 ends with an e-mail dive. Every season I ready emails, comments, reviews and more from you guys. Some good, some bad and some just make zero sense but, I love it anyways.
This week it’s a little bit of a free form show. I am looking at things that shock me about society, people and life. From the ocean to what I saw on my road trip.
It's that time of year again to talk about Star Wars. From future projects to our favorite moments over the years
Who has a side hustle? Or did? Isn’t it funny how we work so hard yet we need side hustles just to make it? What happens when those hustles dry up or you the opportunities are know more? This week I had a little rant and or fun story I thought would be good for a quick show.
Toxic masculinity is real no doubt but, why are we not looking at the other side. Toxic feminism? Oh you think Im reaching? Check this episode out
Bringing back Steve & Brandon from “The Notes McGoats Podcast” to discuss a lot. We did have some technical difficulties in the beginning with crazy sound issues but overall it came out good as it went on. Don’t miss our deep discussion as we look at the world and the rest of life.
We always struggle trying to find the balance in life. With work, bills, family, kids and more, how can you find it? Today I’m talking about the search for the work,life,balance.
With the seasons changing and warm weather creeping into our life, it’s time to go and take a look at some of the local breweries around the area. Our favs to visit and to drink at. This week I was joined by “Tex” a local craft beer girl ready to talk and drink.
With all the issues going on in the world today, our government has shifted attention to banning one ( if not thee) most popular social media apps. I mean let’s really look at why this happening not what we are being fed.
Parenting is tough and yes parents need breaks but, not at the cost of your children. Why do people think that the world needs to just allow you to do what you want? Why are you using kids as a scapegoat?
This week I was joined my Jessie Elsenpeter host of “I Have The Talking Stick.” It was nice warm morning in Minnesota only 25 while here in Texas it’s in the sixties. This week we looked at relationships, marriage, friendships and more. The complicated art of the work life balance and the struggle of taking time to work on your own self
In the tradition of Cocaine Bear it’s time for a drug laced episode. I mean in a sense anyways. Let’s just say it involves a power outage, duct tape and OutKast.
This week I am answering all your questions from emails, DMs, comments and texts. The good the bad and the random
Well I made some changes and this week I needed to go back to and talk about the Grammys but more importantly the direction the world is going.

This week I was joined but the super talented Sophia Annello. We talked about her music, old music, the future and what she has in store for 2023.
Most of us have that one story of a magical party that was the greatest moment of your life. Or a story about how much you drank and who was with you. These days I get tired just thinking about my old adventures but, this party was one for the books.
Cell phones, tablets, laptops and social media. Today we are always available and have more ways to reach someone than we can count. But, what about the good days of staying up all night on the phone and talking? Sitting by a fire and having a heart to heart in person? Has the modern world forgotten how to really communicate?
This week I am joined by Nick Luck to discuss his most recently published book, future projects as well as the release of my first book. Look if James Cameron can take 13 years to make a sequel, I can take a couple myself.
The fist episode of the new year and the new season is about an interesting thing we do as people. A few phone calls got me thinking about why we feel the need to hash out things or talk about things from the past? What good can come from it?
Over the year we have had some amazing movies, series, shows cartoons and more come out. We have also had some serious bombs and misses. On the final show of 2022, I give you the highlights and low points of pop culture
This is probably one of my most important episodes. I needed to get out the message and speak on suicide as we are losing so many and need to be better as a society.
It’s time to dive into the emails. All questions, comments and more. From marriage, The Walking Dead and of course Hip-Hop.
This week I was thinking about time and how it truly is a master of so many things. It can pass us by and be our enemy or it can be a reminder of what we need to do
Part 2 of the hip hop series looks at my favorites and the greats of all time. I also read some of your favorites and who you think are the great ones
12 years, 11 seasons 172 episodes and multiple spinoffs. The Walking Dead ended this past Sunday but the world is not done with some of the characters that we have grown to love or hate. On todays show I look back at the series to discuss my favorite moments, least favorite characters and more.
Part 1: This week it’s time to talk about hip hop. The state of the genre, the most overrated artists ( in my mind) and of course who I consider to be the best. The music has changed but the greats haven’t.
Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO MAX and so many more are at our disposal yet, we still want more. More of what? Increasing rates? Same choices? On this weeks show I am taking a look at the streaming wars and how it’s causing a resurgence of physical media
Quick trip to Vegas and thought I would do a live. Man this city has changed and not for the better
We always chase the big high, or big win. We look for the big promotion at work but don’t enjoy the journey. We can’t go on vacation but miss the little trips we take. This week it’s all about the little things in life.
It wouldn’t be Halloween without some scary local haunts. This takes me to the famous GoatMan’sbridge in Denton TX to see exactly what the fuss is about. Is this a true haunt ? Can I even make it there? Tune in to find out
It’s Halloween season and what would October be without scary movies. Each year I try to watch as many horror movies or shows that I can. It’s a mix of old and new and some just beyond anything I could imagine. So what I am I watching this year? Listen and find out
Halloween and the fall always makes me think of back home. The cool air and smell in the air, football and haunted houses. But what happens when you go into a real haunted house? Not once…but three times or four or more?
This was a great interview and perfect to kick off October. Ken created these amazing characters and has graced the covers of Image comics and more. We could have talked for hours and hopefully he will be back soon.
Meeting people is not hard, meeting people to date isn’t either. You can meet someone anywhere but the question is…should you? I mean some places seem like a bad idea but is it?
