The Gentile Life Podcast

Life during quarantine has been a little crazy. Add two kids the ages of 3 and 16 months, and it gets even more interesting! I look like a hobo because I haven't cut my hair or my beard. I have the dad bod PLUS covid 15. It's been an interesting 4 months in the Gentile household! I discuss all of that and how my oldest is learning to have her own thoughts and sentences. 

George Floyd lost his life when a cop pinned him down on his neck with his knee. In the video you can hear him say, I can't breathe multiple times. This story has taken over the country and it's sad/sickening to see that this continues to happen to black people in this country. I share my feelings on the matter and how justice needs to be served here. #justiceforgeorgefloyd 

The Office is one of the greatest shows to have been made! With everyone being cooped up in their homes, it is being watched like crazy! So it only makes senses to discuss it on the show! Of course I can't do this alone, so I included a few friends to join in on the call to discuss The Office!

I miss sports, specifically baseball! I love watching baseball and the Houston Astros have been my team since I was 5 years old! I wanted to talk Astros baseball so I decided to bring on my friends Erica and Mario to talk about our love of baseball and the Astros! 

The 1st one was so nice I decided to it twice! I bring on my good buddy Justin Lair aka J. Lair, to discuss what he is doing during this quarantine situation. We have known each other for a very long time, and he reminds me how I forgot how long I have known him. We take a stroll down memory lane and have some fun catching up! 

We are all in this crazy situation together! So why not bring on some friends and talk more about it? Everyone is going through something different so I wanted to get some friends stories of what they are going through right now. We have been friends since high school! We talk about being quarantined with our kids, memories from high school and so much more!

We have made it to 10 episodes! I had a different topic I wanted to share for my 10th episode but with the craziness happening in the world, I decided to speak on it. I share my experience of the panic of people and how dumb they are acting at stores. I also discuss the one thing I wanted from the store that people looked at me like I was crazy! I also discuss how common sense has left this world and how people are being very selfish at the moment.

Valentine's Day! The day of looooove! Well it's also a day that some people love to celebrate and they go all out! I am not that person. Never have and never will. Luckily my wife feels the same way. This year we had an unconventional Valentine's Day celebration and I talk about it and the fun we had!

The Gentile house hold is going through a storm! A shit storm that is! That's right we are in the world of potty training our almost 3 year old! It has been an interesting experience that is for sure! I've heard stories from friends and even my own mother on how it goes. I discuss our attempts, and mainly failures, of trying to potty train our daughter! 

The passing of Kobe Bryant shook the sports world and the whole world in general. For someone that is not a Lakers fan and was not a big fan of Kobe Bryant, the basketball player, this hit me harder than I thought it would. I just share my feelings on hearing the passing of him and the others on that helicopter. 

Do you know someone that hogs the bed? Are you that person that hogs the bed? I discuss sleep habits and I"m joined by my 1st guest of the show! My wife Megan joins me to discuss sleep habits in bed! We have very fun banter so this one will is a great one to listen too! Warning-This episode has foul language :)

Ok we all do this! Sing in the shower or the car. When that certain song comes on, you will lose it and just sing at the top of your lungs! I discuss this and how everyone does it, the songs or artists that make people lose their minds as well! Take a listen and relive how you jam out in the car!

The world of dating has change dramatically over the years. Now is all about dating on line.

Friday nights, this was the place to be!! Blockbuster changed how you would rent movies. It was an experience like no other! I talk about how much fun it was going and how I was on the other side of it when I worked there. You want to talk about the big difference! Whew! 

If you ask any parent, they will say they love their kids unconditionally. While that is true, we as parents love our kids more than anything, there are times they are little assholes! Now both of my kids are under 3, so they don't know they are being that way. I discuss the love of my little girls but also how sometimes I just think, man you are being a little asshole right now! Of course I mean that in the most loving way possible!

New Years! Always a fun time and sometimes can be too much fun. I'm reliving one of my New Years Eve parties when I was in my 20's. Also reliving the whole Y2K epidemic from 1999. Things have changed A LOT since then as I am now 38 and don't party like I used too. Check it out!
