In today's episode, Brian gets to hang out on the couch of the ROCK STAR, Brian Harper!!  Brian performed in the band, Smiling Politely for over a decade and he was kind enough to talk to Brian about his time in music, his life growing up and where life in the bread industry (Sara Lee) has taken him now.  The conversation is casual, interesting and full of tangents, just like a Social Loafer episode should.

 This episode is full of Bar Talk.  ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED.

Today is an especially special episode.  Brian was joined by the crazies from Sandys Tavern, Kevin and Kristin, as well as the superstar of the day, Josh Swaner.   On this episode we have a weird and wild amount of bar-talk that somehow also talks about musicals and adult "kids' books".  It's a no format, have fun and let your...

 This was a doozy of an episode.  The topic was "All Things Boston", in honor of Mike Blanchard of the "All Things Transformers" podcast that he hosts.  However, when you get two Blanchard's on the mic, the road becomes fraught with peril and then the journey begins.  The episode has some twists and turns, and some things Boston were discussed.

Sharks... the mindless hunters of the oceans. The world's perfect killing machine. Devils of the deep blue sea... or are they? Today Brian and Bryan discuss the often misunderstood "Devil Fish" and all the popular films that fuel this paranoia.  Bryan is more than a little obsessed with all things shark related and his knowledge of the topic runs deep.

Good morning, Loafers!!  In today's episode, before we had any idea about what we were doing, how to make a podcast, what to talk about.  We started a conversation that was based on a topic and just hit record.  We have grown by leaps and bounds since September 2022 and you can hear it for yourselves in this conversation how it all began.  This episode is raw, uncut, unfiltered audio with no music, no intro or ou...
