In this episode of The Mack & G Show, we celebrate a major milestone—our 21st episode! That officially puts us in the top 1% of podcasts (at least according to statistics). To mark the occasion, we dive into the latest streaming hits, including Running Point, White Lotus, Zero Day, and more. Plus, we debate whether getting a full-body health scan is genius or just a way to stress yourself out.
But the real fun? We unveil the ultimate “Uncool Dad” list—habits that dads think are cool but… absolutely are not. Are you guilty of any?
Highlights Include:
• Best & worst new streaming shows • The truth about full-body health scans • The “Uncool Dad” list—what NOT to do • Ricky G’s Dual Lingo struggles • A sneak peek at upcoming shows we’re excited for
Whether you’re looking for your next binge-worthy show or just trying to avoid embarrassing dad habits, this episode has something for you. Let’s dive in!
