The After Party

Big Party is fired up because Nebraska made a coaching change, Molly is trying to understand how anyone can drive in total silence like a serial killer with errands, and the two get into why podcasts have become the new go-to for commutes, car rides, and avoiding 22 radio station changes before you even hit the Casey’s.

They also talk holiday gift ideas that are more about experiences than more junk for the closet, including candle pouring at Good Life Candle & Craft. Molly shares Declan’s big theater debut, complete with a German accent, slicked-back hair, a vill...

Big Party accidentally listed Sweet Wylene’s size 6 wedding shoes as a size 14. One shopper’s message caught the mistake—and somehow turned his resale side hustle into a personal shopping service.

On this After Party, Big Party and Molly also get into the cruise ship story that sounds like a retirement nightmare, Molly’s seafood restaurant days, and the lobster conversation that takes a very unexpected turn.

Plus: grocery shopping every single day, Instagram recipes you can’t stop thinking about, and Big Party’s $2 experiment to find out whether he actually likes pad Thai.

...

Big Party and Molly kick things off with some Halloween “Did You Know” facts, including why people used to carve turnips instead of pumpkins, how bats got tied to Halloween, why “blind as a bat” is apparently a 400-year-old misunderstanding, and the deeply unsettling idea of eating an apple in a dark room to see your future husband in the mirror. Absolutely not, thank you.

Then we get into the real Halloween horror story: getting invited to a friend’s house party where you have to bring your own drinks, wear a costume, bring a gag gift, AND pay fi...

New episode is out now, and we’re getting into the stuff that makes you stare at the ceiling and question your whole setup.

Big Party and Molly talk about the Sunday Scaries, why they’re showing up earlier and earlier, and how the word “should” can basically turn into a cinder block around your neck. Molly’s captaining the work week ship, Big Party is somehow living free of the scaries, and honestly, good for him but also rude.

Then we get into some wild “Did You Know” stats: one in six adults in relationships...

we’re getting spooky, sentimental, and mildly nauseous.

Big Party and Molly kick things off with the scariest Halloween news of all: candy is apparently made of gold now. Molly still hasn’t decorated because she’s being held hostage by a lack of Scotch tape, while Big Party shows up in a tank top that immediately gets compared to weak-arm Rob Lowe. So, off to a strong and deeply upsetting start.

Then we get into listener messages, ranch and ketchup dipping sauce, picky eaters, Declan’s questionable sandwich choices, and whether Big Party ever eats a s...

Somehow we start with Salisbury steak and end up investigating Big Party’s underground food empire.

Big Party reveals his freezer is basically a Midwest doomsday bunker full of ground beef, brisket, dinosaur ribs, gluten-free bagels, and 130 imported croissants from Spain. Why? Because Wileen found a gluten-free, dairy-free croissant that actually tastes like a real croissant, and Big Party did what any reasonable husband with an LLC would do: ordered enough to feed a small banquet hall.

Meanwhile, Molly is fighting the siren call of bread, judging expensive Chicago sandwich rolls, and explaining why bringing go...

New episode is out now, and we’re starting with the important stuff: **are you supposed to put hard taco shells in the oven or are we all just out here eating crunchy cardboard wrong?**

Big Party and Molly get into taco night rules, the proper way to keep a hard shell taco from exploding all over your plate, and why Costco needs to stop playing games with Molly’s beloved enchilada bake. Seriously, how does Costco not “have the stuff”? You’re COSTCO.

Then we hit some **No Dumb Questions**, including why adults always say “we sh...

New episode is out now, and somehow we went from cat whiskers and blue jay feathers to AI dating app catfishing, which feels about right.

Big Party and Molly dig into the creepy new story about dating apps using thousands of AI personas to keep people chatting, spending money, and possibly falling in love with a robot named “Kayla” who will absolutely never meet you for coffee.

Then we get into the real issues: missing socks, feral kid laundry piles, whether safety-pinning socks together is genius or unhinged, and how many alarms makes you a psyc...

**New episode is out now!**

Big Party and Molly are back with another beautifully unhinged ride through memories, fashion choices, documentaries, and TV shows that are actively trying to ruin our week.

Big Party shares a surprisingly emotional birthday gift from his stepmom: a German stein his dad brought back from Germany, packed with old matchbooks from places that don’t even exist anymore — including one from the Playboy Club. Yep, there was a Playboy Club. Yes, there were bunny ears. And yes, we have questions.

Then Dave hits us with a **No Dumb...

New episode is out now, party crashers.

Big Party went to the doctor and got the classic Midwest wellness warning: maybe pump the brakes on the waffle fries. Naturally, this turns into a full investigation on whether potatoes count as vegetables, how many waffle fries is “one serving,” and why Smarty Pants absolutely should not be trusted to build a waffle fry meal plan.

Molly tries to bring reason to the table, which goes about as well as you’d expect.

We also get into the real-life stress Olympics: lying in bed wondering if the...

New episode is out now, Party Crashers.

This week on **The Big Party Show**, Big Party and Molly cover the important stuff: flies that somehow break into sealed rooms, moths hiding in bird seed, Big Party getting an absolutely ridiculous biscuit named after him, and why pork tenderloin sandwiches are basically a Midwestern love language.

They also get into **The Bear finale**, **The Long Walk**, Ryan Murphy shows, Walmart having actual DJs, terrifying robot dogs, missing Tupperware lids, lonely socks, and the grocery cart test that might expose who you really are as a person.<...

This episode of **The Big Party Show After Party with Big Party and Molly** is all over the place in the best possible way.

We kick things off with the first week of school chaos, because nothing says “back to routine” like doing all the work just to immediately hit a long weekend. Then Molly introduces the idea of **mystery vacations**, where a company books your trip and tells you where you’re going right before you leave. Sounds exciting… unless Big Party starts running the company and suddenly your surprise getaway is a tour of a water sa...

On this episode of **The Big Party Show After Party**, Big Party and Molly are covering the important issues America refuses to handle responsibly: giant Dunkin’ coffee buckets, TSA’s weird banned items list, travel toasters, thrift store wigs, and when leftovers officially become fair game.

Molly has serious questions about who needs a full sandcastle bucket of coffee in their cup holder, while Big Party dives into TSA reminders that include bowling balls, cast iron skillets, foam toy swords, Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones, and snow globes that have crossed the liquid line. Somehow this turns into lith...

Big Party and Molly are back with a fresh round of **No Dumb Questions**, and somehow it starts with trying to hum while holding your nose and ends with a full investigation into America’s junk drawer of old phone chargers.

This episode covers a lot of important ground, including Big Party hunting all over town for gluten-free churro chips, walking out of stores empty-handed and feeling suspicious, Molly calling out his “we survived with one candle” winter storm story, and the debut of Big Party’s new favorite segment: **Did You Know?**

Send your **No Dumb Questions...

Big Party and Molly are back with the kind of episode that starts with handwritten letters and somehow ends with dog food toppers, because of course it does.

This week, Molly gives an update on the handwritten letter campaign with Enclosed in Omaha, Big Party reminds everyone to hit up **bigpartyshow.com**, and then things take a hard left into the latest lettuce recall situation that has everybody side-eyeing salad like it owes them money.

From there, Big Party makes the case for eating kiwi with the skin on — yes, the fuzzy little sweater stays — whil...

Big Party and Molly are back in the home studio for an after party that somehow covers everything from backyard pools and oversized podcast tables to dog farts so powerful they deserve their own zip code.

Big Party explains why he may start bringing his own fork to Costco and Sam’s Club for the samples, which Molly immediately files under “absolutely mortifying.” They also get into pet people, cat dads, taking 400 pictures of your animal every year, and why dogs in Chicago winters are basically a lifestyle commitment.

Then it’s off to sunset photos...

It’s the After Party, and Big Party is learning a lot today — mostly that white shorts are a dangerous lifestyle choice and Tide sticks might actually be witchcraft.

Big Party tells Molly about the terrifying moment Wileen spotted a mystery brown stain on his white shorts, which somehow leads to Molly explaining “stand pants” — the pants you wear when you know sitting down is absolutely not part of the plan.

Then we get into the real adult thrills: Tide sticks, OxiClean, metal straw danger stories, homemade skinny iced chai lattes, barista oat milk, frothers, and the em...

Big Party and Molly are back with another round of **No Dumb Questions**, and somehow we go from crying over **Project Hail Mary** to debating whether Jason Momoa is the kind of guy you’d want to fish with, drink with, or silently admire from a respectful distance.

This episode covers it all: **The Housemaid**, airplane movie edits, Avatar avoidance, celebrity hangout rankings, and the very real Midwestern problem of saying “we should get going” and then standing in the kitchen for another 47 minutes.

Plus, we get into the joy of having the house completely to you...

Chick-fil-A finally got knocked off the top spot, and honestly? Nobody saw Jersey Mike’s coming in with the chair.

Big Party and Molly break down the new quick service restaurant rankings, from Little Caesars somehow winning over Chicago kids, to Culver’s being a weekly household staple, to Taco Bell not making the list at all—which feels illegal in at least seven Midwestern counties.

Then things get dangerous: discount wings, the Wingstop thigh era, Portillo’s, Vienna Beef hot dog factory lunches, office birthday bagels, two-day-old churros, and A2 dairy possibly changing lives for peop...

It’s the After Party, baby, and this one starts with Big Party explaining the absolute worst relationship advice he ever got: “just tell her she’s acting like…” Yeah. You can guess how that went. Molly immediately turns it into a public service announcement for anyone who enjoys being alive.

Then we roll into No Dumb Questions with a listener asking if we believe in ghosts. Big Party believes in ghosts but does NOT believe in the little ghost-hunting box shows. Molly thinks haunted bars might just be really good marketing, which honestly… fair.

Somehow that...

Welcome back to **The Big Party Show After Party**, where somehow a **Flag Day card** turns into a full-blown discussion about handwriting, listener mail, fishing bait, vacation prices, and whether Big Party knows how to ask another human being a question.

Big Party kicks things off with a very official piece of mail from his sister in California, because nothing says “family bonding” like a **Woot Woot Happy Flag Day** card. That inspires Molly to float a new idea: sending handwritten notes and little treats to Party Crashers. Yes, real mail. Not a bill. Not a political flye...

Would you use a coupon on a first date? Be honest. Because Molly says that’s going straight to the group chat.

Then things take a hard left into the wild new teen tanning trend, “tanfluencers,” tanning beds making a comeback, sunscreen expiration dates, and why smelling like banana sunscreen at the beach might not...

This episode? We officially leveled up.

The Party Crashers sent in their “No Dumb Questions,” and we may have taken it way too seriously… because it now has a theme song.

Expect relatable stories, questionable fashion decisions, and a reminder that most of us are just guessing anyway.

When does patience turn into straight-up delusion?

Then it flips to family life — how kids actually see their parents (even when you think they don’t), and how those dy...

The central theme of today's discourse revolves around the notion that none of us arrived at this juncture in our lives with the intention of maintaining an upright posture; rather, we find ourselves more comfortably situated on the floor. This episode unfolds within the context of "The After Party," where we engage in candid oversharing, positioning our revelations as a form of therapeutic entertainment. We delve into various personal anecdotes, including the intricacies of culinary gatherings and the challenges of adhering to dietary limitations, all while maintaining a serious tone that eschews levity. The dialogue further explores the complexities...
