No Hugging, No Learning

Listen for free

No Hugging, No Learning is the show about one thing...watching Always Sunny for the first time. We originally watched through Seinfeld and then Curb Your Enthusiasm and finished both series, so we moved on to what many call the "spiritual successor" of Seinfeld. After sitting down and watching every episode, hosts Tim Murphy and Ted Hallowell will talk about what bits still work, what worked back then, and things that are so cringe that they probably should never have been part of the show...at least from a modern day viewpoint. New episodes of No Hugging, No Learning drop every Sunday.

  • The Gang Gets Stuck in the Woods (S6E11)

    The Gang Gets Stuck in the Woods (S6E11)
    Aug 23 2026

    "Things go awry as the Gang travels to Atlantic City for a charity benefit. While Frank, Dee and Mac try to survive in the woods, Dennis and Charlie hitch a ride to the city and have the night of their lives."
    -Original Air Date: 12/2/2010-

    This week we're talking about The Gang Gets Stuck in the Woods, more detail into just how shady of a guy Dennis is, how to stretch your stomach for competitive eating, Tom Sizemore being such a good actor that it makes us think of Wayne's World 2 and running out of excuses for why Dennis still has a flip phone.
