It's St. Patrick's Day and The Shenanigan Nation is prepping for a long overdue vacation to Negril, Jamaica! 

This week we hear all about Jeff's ability to pack light and make sure his suitcase is under the weight limit for the voyage to the Carribean. Cristin takes a minute to vent about Jeff's shortcomings when it comes to chipping in and helping plan for their vacation. 

Once the conversation changes to why they enjoy Jamaica as much as they do Cristin confesses that she has been getting some requests from a few of their friends from their favorite island. The stress to plan a perfect trip is real and Cristin nearly has a stomach issue while she is cleansing her inner demons before she arrives at her tropical paradise!

It's going to be a kid free week full of sunshine, sand and cocktail dreams but first your favorite husband and wife duo need to make it to the airport in one piece!

It's a new week and that means it's been seven days of bullsh*t that Cristin and Jeff have to vent about! This week Cristin poses a major question to Jeff and the listeners.... when should a kid get a cell phone and when should their parents no longer be allowed to operate one? 

Gabbie had one hell of a morning riding on the school bus when the thing breaks down on the side of the road. All of her classmates that were ten years old and much younger jumped on their phones to text their parents about how nervous they were, except Gabbie! Cristin and Jeff have not allowed her to have a phone yet and this situation brought up a great discussion topic on when is the right time to give your child a phone.

On the other end of this debate Cristin brings up how the Gram Cracker is getting more and more dangerous carrying her cell phone around which brings our hosts to the next dilemma, when should a person no longer be allowed to use one????

 

It's a new week and another all new episode with The Shenanigan Nation! This week Jeff and Cristin welcome two of New England's young guns in the cornhole scene, Chase Mitchell and Mr. Twisted himself, Derek Fraioli into the studio for a recap of Wicked Cornhole's biggest event of the year. 

Jeff and Cristin needed to bring their son Chase to Massachusetts for Turf War 5 mainly because he is too young to get his hotel room on his own. Little did they know what SHENANIGANS would ensue during their weekend trip to the cornhole promise lands. It was a whole new world for our hosts because they only know cornhole as a game to play when BBQ's and pool parties are going down. 

Mr. Twisted helps get Cristin and Jeff up to speed on the rules of the game in the highly competitive world of high stakes cornhole in a tournament setting and recap a run in between a certain cornhole-dink that couldn't handle losing with Jeff as he was gettin' twisted and hyping up the crowd after an over the line conspiracy during yes.... you guessed it, a cornhole pre-party!

The drinks were flowing at the rise of dawn and the teams from up state Maine could learn a thing or two about finding the hole with a little help from Cristin and her new cornhole board design. After all if the shoes don't fit you really aren't gonna hit! With 4-baggers and flannels all over Jeff and Cristin couldn't wait to get in the studio to fill everyone in on the weekend they lost their cornhole virginity. Their first time will always be a special memory and now it will live on forever!

  

It's an absolute agenda free episode where Cristin and Jeff go over the week full of shenanigans that they had dealing with their family and the business! This week starts off absolutely on fire...... no really, we thought it was on fire......

Episode 6 starts off with Cristin filling Jeff in on the trouble Brady got in at school when one of his friends was dying of thirst and Brady was just trying to help a kid out. Jeff has apologies to issue to the locals after he realizes no one wants to talk to him anymore in public and once the episode gets rolling things once again go off the rails!

Cristin bounces some great marketing ideas off of Jeff that she's held down under for a while and totally talks Jeff into a glass of her forbidden fruit. Amazon trucks nearly take Jeff and Brady off of the road after an afternoon of going to the gym and working out with Brady's favorite gym rat not once..... but twice.

Jeff fills Cristin in on his day after he went to meet The Tax Nazi for the first time to handle their yearly taxes, all while Cristin was allegedly home sick and definitely wasn't at the nail salon. 

This week The Shenanigan Nation gives us their in-depth review on how the new season of The Bachelor not only confused Cristin and Jeff but also made them think about relationships. 

It's an all new season of The Bachelor and another weird 20-something year old man is on the hunt for love! What better way to compare your relationship than by weighing it up against a guy that thinks doing a few ab crunches is going to seal the deal before he meets 35 single women that want to marry him before he even knows there's maple syrup and party busses involved?

After an extremely candid review of the new season gets wrapped up, Cristin and Jeff go deep into the up's and down's of a long term relationship and marriage. Things are never going to be like they were in the honeymoon phase of dating but with The Shenanigan Nation's "semi-professional" advise you just might be able to rekindle your love life and get things between you and your significant other back on track!

Keeping up with the pressures of doing what is socially expected can be challenging to say the least and The Shenanigan Nation has a thing or two to say about it! 

This week Cristin and Jeff go all in on their opinions of what people expect of all of us in day-to-day life. Jeff starts the show completely pissed off about the simple expected pleasantries of the phrase "Hi, how are you." because no one really wants to truly hear his answer. 

Once Jeff calms down and gets his emotions in check Cristin and Jeff jump into social media expectations and discuss how a simple Facebook happy birthday wish can send people into an absolute tail spin.... well at least Jeff thinks so.

In the third segment of the show Cristin goes over specific actions and phrases that everyone does in public and no one ever realizes how rude they are really being by doing so. Let's just say Jeff completely failed the test and had to admit he does most of them on a daily basis except walking on the wrong side of the aisle in the store because only a**holes do that. 

In between all of the meltdowns and shenanigans Cristin and Jeff throw a few tongue twisters into the mix and Cristin becomes a podcasting editing nightmare making all sorts of noise and Jeff couldn't take it anymore.

The shenanigans just won't stop this week on the show! 

It's mid-term week for the kids and Cristin gets Jeff up to speed on all of the projects and studying their boys need to get done that they all waited until the last minute for. Somehow the show takes an unscheduled turn, and we all get to hear the discovery Jeff has about his boy's hair care regiments. 

Jeff and Cristin go over the perils of finding Brady a hair stylist that he feels comfortable with and come to the realization that lollipops and Sponge Bob are needed ASAP.

Once Cristin gets the show back on track her and Jeff finally discuss the all-new show on ABC, The Parent Test. After raising six kids and somehow making a blended family work our hosts have a thing or two to say about what they watched! 

Cristin shares her views on what parenting styles the show highlights and where her and Jeff fit into the categories. Jeff has a bone to pick with the producers because he feels he and Cristin were snubbed and should have won the whole damn thing!

This week we get caught up on how Cristin and Jeff's week went, and we learn that even though Cristin is feeling a little under the weather she's ready to record another show and possibly start a new phone sex side-hustle thanks to Jimmy Fallon and the rest of the SNL cast from when the show was actually funny.

Jeff gets Cristin up to speed on his experiences at Dunkins when he was forced to use the mobile app to order his coffee before work which caused him to have an epic meltdown and come to the realization that change is bad and high schoolers in pajama pants slowing down his mornings everyday are even worse than he thought.

Once the fiasco gets resolved our hosts dive deep into the new "on-demand" lifestyle that America has come to embrace.... Jeff included. We hear about an intoxicated evening when Jeff couldn't control himself using Door Dash and caused a turf war in their neighborhood just to get a crunch wrap supreme when Cristin was expecting a Big Mac.  

This episode goes off the rails faster than you can brew a cup of joe and will have you spitting your mocha latte out before you can say the name Miguel!
