I'll Get You!

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/23

This week’s guest has been relocated… to our studio. For his protection (and maybe yours), he’s entered our Witness Protection Program. We’re hiding his face, his name, and possibly even his dignity. Protecting the innocent — or maybe, the not so innocent — while revealing everything else.

War Games

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/16

The energy and laughter really picked up steam in Part 2, "War Games", with Jim and Pete as we re-live some of the stupidest and hilarious moments of our lives. Regrettable?...well, maybe, but all too often it's the stupid that shapes us! Come join us on this week's Dysfunctional Dialogue for an inside look at the molding of three lives.

The Tie That Binds

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/09

The doors open. The surreal is now real. And somewhere between absurdity and enlightenment… we find ourselves laughing in the madness. This week, please join my sister Erin and I on Dysfunctional Dialogue: “The Tie That Binds”. Two siblings, two choices, too much fun.

Camp Chaos

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/11/02

This week, Brian Smith and I relive the chaos and stupidity — from canoe football to campfire explosions, run-ins with the law, and a storm that nearly turned our camping trip into a rescue mission. It’s an action-comedy movie we somehow survived… mostly through luck, laughter, and highly questionable decision-making.

No Brakes!

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/10/26

They say you can’t go back — but this week, we did ... as my brother Jim, his best friend Pete, and I took a wild ride back to the glory days — when freedom came with no brakes. We’re talking high school adventures, neighborhood legends, and the infamous blue van that definitely had no business being on the road.

The Dream Stealer

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/10/19

This week on Dysfunctional Dialogue, my guest, Erin McParland, lives halfway between dreamland and doodle — where reality is hand-drawn and logic wears bright colors. She tells us how her beautiful, hysterical, cartoon-filled mind turned a dandelion wish into a hostage situation — and somewhere out there, someone’s still waiting for their dandelion miracle. Welcome to “The Dream Stealer”.

Surprise!

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/10/12

This week’s episode wasn’t planned — but neither were most of our best stories. My longtime friend and college roommate, Brian Smith, surprised me with a visit, so naturally, we hit record. We then turned decades of questionable decisions and late-night mischief into a podcast episode. The laughs are very real. The regret… mostly manageable.

Jersey Justice

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/10/05

This week, on Dysfunctional Dialogue, I’m joined by Vince August who’s seen both sides of judgment — literally. A former judge turned comedian, he talks about balancing the bench and the mic, and how “dying on stage” is the least dangerous thing compared to the things we did as kids.You may know Vince from some of his television guest appearances such as on #Gutfeld, his stand-up act or when he’s warming up the audience for #TheDailyShow. He’s not just a stand-up comedian, he’s a stand-up guy. I had

Can I Stay?

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/09/28

Step inside, press a button, and prepare for the impossible… two siblings face the ultimate test of imagination as they step into an elevator where every floor leads to the impossible. Do you step into the childhood bedroom frozen in time? Or claim the deserted beach as your kingdom? Will you embrace the puppies… or climb into the dream treehouse? And when the doors open to an unthinkable choice - what do you do?

Cheese Please

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/09/21

Forget body spray - this week, we sample a new line of fictional sprays: Knowledge-in-a-Can, Extra Luck Mist, and the always-handy Instant Healing Fog. Warning: side effects may include overthinking and uncontrollable laughter. Our only problem? Deciding which magical can to crack open first. Come join my daughter Melissa McParland and I on this week’s Dysfunctional Dialogue.

Deterioration

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/09/14

For some reason, the more we drank, the more silly things became. Who would’ve guessed? Come join Steve Macaluso and I for a weekend mid-day drink-fest and enjoy the spectacle as things deteriorate along the way.

Plant the Seed

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/09/07

Some podcasts explore philosophy. Ours explores what happens when everyday activities sound suspiciously like pillow talk. This week is proof that if you listen closely enough, the entire world is one big innuendo. Yoga, gardening, painting, pool toys—no hobby is safe. Spoiler: it gets weird fast. Enjoy, again, with guests Debbie McParland and Steve Macaluso!

Wet & Foamy

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/08/31

Have you ever mistaken things said at the dentist or gym for things happening in the bedroom? Well, we sure hope not. But if you do, this episode might shine a light on that and more. Join me with great friend Steve Macaluso and my beautiful wife Debbie as we get downright silly with innuendos and more.

Don't Fall Down

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/08/24

Friendship isn’t built on compliments—it’s built on brutal honesty, absurd jokes, and taking shots at each other. We’ve got all three covered this week as we laugh, roast, and we remind each other of fun and embarrassing moments. After all, that’s what friends are for. Join me for some fun with my wife Debbie and my good friend Bill Schories.

A New Record

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/08/17

My wonderful wife Debbie and longtime friend Bill Schories join me for a ride that starts with production disasters, slides into college flashbacks, and ends up in a game of innuendo-filled one-liners. This week’s episode is proof that the detours are where the real fun lives.

My Future Wife

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/08/10

Pulling back the curtain and rewinding to the embarrassing and mischievous events of our youth including the time my romantic gesture got confiscated, a school ‘break-in’ was rewarded with academic improvements, and The Kiss with a Twist. Oh … and apparently, our marriage is now just a job! Please join my wife and I on “My Future Wife”, as we rip off the bandage on some awkward moments, discuss a fool-proof way to quit smoking and rehash some fun times beginning way back in 7th grade.

Laugh & Death

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/08/03

We’ve made peace with the fact that life is ridiculous — and death might be, too. This week, we swap stories of our low-budget childhood, dabble with the supernatural, and discover that a drunken Ouija board is less a portal to the other side and more a comedy prop. You are invited to lean in close, turn down the lights, and follow a conversation that wanders between the ludicrous and the mysteries of the afterlife. You’ll laugh. You’ll shiver. And when it’s over… you just might look over your

Smart or Stupid

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/07/27

Some questions don’t need answers and others should be avoided entirely. Of course…that didn’t stop us! Come join me with my sister Erin, as we take a wonderfully immature and hilarious stroll down the hypothetical hallway.

The Lone Sane Man

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/07/20

Warning: Opinions May Not Be Vetted. In this week’s episode of Dysfunctional Dialogue, meet Jacob Carriero, “The Lone Sane Man”, who has proven that confidence often outruns reality. Come enjoy the person who boldly mistook wild guesses for gospel truth with the confidence of a child and the certainty of a prophet. You may know him… but not by his real name. This exceptional young man doesn’t just think outside the box - he sometimes denies the box even exists. All Hail the logically illogical

The Re-pocalypse

Dysfunctional Dialogue ·

2025/07/13

In a world where common sense took a backseat… two kids armed with nothing but a cardboard box, a questionable mattress, and a dream, dared to defy gravity – and basic safety.This week, we dive headfirst (sometimes literally) into our reckless youth and also tackle some unsettling “would you rathers” – like choosing between a frayed bungee cord or a parachute full of holes, and whether you'd rather record the world with your eyes or your ears… forever.It’s ridiculous. It’s reckless. It’s a great
