🎧 Episode Summary:
In this hilarious (and wildly relatable) episode of The Radke Show, Melissa and David lay down the law on what they are absolutely not doing this summer — or possibly ever again. From refusing to go on picnics to waging war on tucked shirts, they share their growing list of summer non-negotiables. Spoiler: water parks did not make the cut.
You’ll hear about Rocco’s continued unemployment saga, why David might end up frying chicken at McDonald’s, and the $1,000 breakfast bill that nearly caused a dad to spit out his Disney mimosa. Melissa also debuts her viral “Summer Absolutely Nots” video, and let’s just say: bras, parades, and potlucks are officially cancelled.
Stick around for a ridiculous game segment that David ruins by being too dang clever.
