    The Olympics. An international competition as old as time... according to the Greeks. But it could do with a bit of a facelift, yeah? Well that's just what the boys are here to do!

    This week, Liam and Finn discuss how they'll bring back the former glory of the Olympics by dissing breakdancing, organizing questionable sports, and... jellybeans??? How deliciously devious!

    SPAAACE!!! It's so vast. So remarkable. So... spacious... But have you ever considered that our solar system could be categorized... as a meal???

    Join the daring dudes of dumbness as they attempt to understand what makes our universe a buffet, get a little too invested in Uranus, pitch fights between abominations of the imagination, and throw their brilliant film ideas at the masses of Hollywood.

  • Liam and Finn Fix America
    Jul 4 2026

    In this unusually patriotic episode, Liam and Finn set out to fix a problem gripping our country... what people are referred to in each state!

    Join the brothers in red, white, and blue as they poke fun at the USA's naming system, explain the medicinal wonders of barbecue sauce, and barely even know what Virginia is for.
