  • Achievment Day

    Achievment Day
    Jul 23 2024
    In this dynamic episode of Billified: The Bill Moran Podcast, Bill and Kevin welcome guests Matt Reis and Laura for an engaging and wide-ranging conversation. Bill kicks off by discussing his recent illness, which gave him the opportunity to binge-watch Netflix's docuseries "Receivers." He and Matt are particularly impressed by Amon-Ra St. Brown's tenacity and competitiveness, but the standout figure is Amon-Ra's father, John Brown, a former three-time Mr. World Body Building Champion. John’s intense training regimen for his sons, starting at the age of five, makes Bill humorously question his own parenting.

    The discussion takes a personal turn as Bill reveals that his 14-year-old son, Jameson, wants to come live with him—a surprising but welcome decision. Matt advises that Jameson should watch "Receivers" before making his final decision, hinting at a potential shift in Bill’s parenting strategy.

    The episode also delves into current events, featuring a funny AI-generated audio clip of President Biden and a more serious conversation about the "slut shaming" aimed at Vice President Kamala Harris. Bill plays an uncensored clip of Judge Joe Brown making derogatory comments about Harris, prompting a discussion about the unfair double standards women face in politics. Laura provides insightful commentary on the issue, pointing out similar incidents involving male politicians.

    Shifting gears, Bill and Laura discuss the recent Rochester Pride Parade, which drew over 20,000 attendees. Bill advocates for people being their authentic selves but argues that people should identify with their accomplishments rather than chosen pronouns. He proposes celebrating achievements instead of birthdays, believing that real self-esteem is built through accomplishments.

    The conversation takes a lighter turn as they debate whether 80% of men cheat at their bachelor parties, a claim made by a stripper. While the guys are skeptical, Laura admits she didn't trust herself at her bachelorette party but did trust her "lame" ex-husband. Bill humorously suggests Laura write her ex-husband's dating profile, to which she responds that it would perfectly describe his new wife.

    The episode wraps up with a fun game of "Theme That Tune" and a discussion about the "lame" movies Bill and Matt watch when they’re not trying to be manly by watching "Receivers." Enjoy a mix of humor, heartfelt moments, and thoughtful discussions on Achievement Day!
