'Tis the season. Cuffing season, that is. What is it about that time period between Thanksgiving and New Years that makes people want to get locked in? How do you avoid getting trapped?

Recurring guests Joc'quese Casel and Gerry Squirewell answer those questions with me, plus much more.
In Part 2 of a two-part episode, we also get into the value of having friends that are girls, keeping it real when it comes time to meet the parents, and surviving a long-distance relationship. Tune in and listen to the finale of another strong episode of "The Mike Silva Show".
“Yeah, I’m all about them pics boy... What do you think about that chico?”
S1E8a: The Three Man Holiday Pod with Joc and Gerry
Do you remember the awesome feeling of a great new video game... On Super Nintendo? Are there truly any good Christmas movies, or just a bunch of generic family channel flicks?

In Part 1 of a two-part episode, we also get into holiday traditions and how commercialized each and every holiday has become. Why the hell is there a "National Cookie Day"? I have no clue either. Tune in and listen to an entertaining entry of the podcast.
“I guess you could say Tails was like a plant, right? It had no sex...?”
S1E7: Joc Casel On Culture, Social Media, and Famous Firsts
Longtime friend and the frequently mentioned Joc'quese Casel drops in.
We talk about cultural differences based on geography, the pros and cons of moving around a lot and being the "new kid" growing up, and social media today vs. yesterday and what it's become.

We also go over how we met and talk about some of life's milestones, like our first ticket (for "trespassing" at our old high school), first apartment (or home away from home), and our first strip club encounter (worth the listen).
Another topic mentioned was our failed attempts at launching a rap duo: Team Ego. Check out Joc's terrible intro video, along with mine.
