The Brothers Raskin
Alvin! Simon! Theodore! The Brothers Raskin dive into a wild mix of family lore and cultural chaos, from surviving “the most dangerous house in the family” to debating baccarat strategy and the novel‑turned‑film Ballad of a Small Player. They bounce from James Talarico shout‑outs to Twins‑hat fashion choices to an unexpectedly deep riff on Alvin and the Chipmunks. Super Bowl 60 takes center stage as the brothers lock in their predictions with equal parts confidence and profanity. And in true Raskin fashion, they close by weighing Bad Bunny vs. Kid Rock and wondering just how bad...

Brother Patrick’s on assignment, but Brother Ben’s not flying solo. This week on The Brothers Raskin, Ben welcomes two all-star guests: his sister Tee Raskin and his wife Erin. Ben and Tee rewind to their high school hijinks—stealing Mom’s car, decorating a Rose Bowl float for the Kiwanis, and road-tripping across the desert to Tempe, Arizona to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Bonus: Pearl Jam opened for Nirvana. Double bonus: typewriter talk. Did they get busted? Tune in to find out. Be a mensch—rate, review, and tell a friend. Brother Patrick returns next week.

Ben and Patrick dive into the wonderfully chaotic world of actors‑turned‑musicians, celebrating the brave souls who swapped call sheets for chord charts. They bounce between legends, curiosities, and “wait… they recorded an album?” surprises with the enthusiasm of two brothers discovering a forgotten box of CDs in the garage. By the end, they’ve built a joyful mixtape of Hollywood’s most unexpected musical detours, all delivered with their signature sibling banter and good‑natured disbelief. Be cool to each other. Donate to charities and get some exercise.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas from the Brothers Raskin. Brother Patrick was away being naughty when special guest, and friend of the show, Erin Norris stepped in to fill his very pointy shoes. Erin is a cinephile and lover of the silly season, making her the perfect guest to select a Mt. Rushmore of Christmas movies. From the absurd to the sublime and all points in-between, Erin selects her top four Xmas movies from a massive list of 25. It’s a three Egg Nog Alert kinda show and you’re not going to want to miss it. Help out animals in need this winter at . We know you have extra cash....

The Brothers Raskin Podcast, presented by Texaco. Fun show. Lots of laughs. Chatting about the American Revolution, “Ambulance,” Gerald Butler, Nicholas Cage, “One Battle After Another,’ and why we ain’t talking about “Eddington.” No fundraising. Just listen for free. Give the Brothers a review. Obviously 5-Stars. Be cool to each other. Enjoy ever sandwich.

Brother Patrick is on assignment (vacation) and the show needed a big gun to fill his shoes. And there are no bigger shoes than Kevin Winters Morriss. Kevin, or K-Mo, used to be Brother Ben’s boss back at the Salt Lake Tribune. He actually paid Ben to do podcasts—crazy! K-Mo drops knowledge on road trip etiquette, Robert Caro, and why you should always stop in Ohio to check out 19 president of these United States, Rutherford B. Hayes.
The fella chat about racial inequality in public infrastructure, why good BBQ is important, and stay away from the smoked turkey. They rank side dishes and basically dish about the state of the world over the course of an hour. It’s a like déjà vu all over again if you ever listened to Trib Sports Radio.
