In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Matt sits down with longtime friend Matthew Ferrell—host of the podcast Matt Ferrell's Still Standing. The two reflect on nearly 20 years of friendship and dig into some heavy but important topics: substance abuse and recovery, the mission behind Matthew’s podcast, and the devastating loss of his brother Levi to suicide.

They also talk about what it means to be fathers, artists, and aging skateboarders trying to stay grounded and creative in a world that never stops shifting. It’s a conversation about resilience, honesty, and the strength it takes to keep moving forward.

This episode is a reminder that even in the hardest moments, you're not alone—and you can still stand.

In this hilarious and unfiltered 20th episode of Good Times, Noodle Salad, hosts Matt and Paige cover everything from guilty pleasure TV shows to emotional furniture pickups.

They also get into cilantro allergies, their love-hate relationship with Kings of Leon, and why they can't stop watching Teen Mom and other reality TV shows. Whether you're here for the laughs, the chaos, or the couch-lifting heroics—this episode delivers.

Big episode, big changes! After 18 episodes of shoutouts and stories, Paige—Matt’s fiancée and longtime behind-the-scenes MVP—joins Good Times, Noodle Salad as the brand-new cohost! We talk about what it’s like remodeling our new place together, how many things we’ve actually checked off our vision board, and the wild world of idioms.

We also say a bittersweet goodbye to Chris as a full-time host. He’s stepping back from the mic, but don’t worry—he’s not gone forever and may be popping in as a guest down the road.

Oh, and we settle an important cultural debate: Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell is trash. We said what we said.

New era, same nonsense. Let’s get into it.

In Episode 18 of Good Times Noodle Salad, we dive into a mix of personal reflections and random life moments. We talk about the nature of hyper fixation—how certain interests or goals can sometimes take over our lives and the challenges that come with it. Then, we get into handling the haters on Instagram, especially when it comes to weight loss and body image, offering our own strategies for dealing with online negativity.

We also talk about the exciting (and stressful) process of buying a house, and the highs and lows of that whole experience. Plus, we break down Mike Israetel’s content and his impact on the fitness world, and how it shapes the way we approach our own training and health.

Lastly, we wrap up the episode by sending off our good friend Cam, who’s heading off to the Air Force. We’re keeping it light though, because after recording, we’re heading out to party with Cam and send him off in style!
