Cancelled; A Villain Origin Story 06/26/2024

Cancelled; A Villain Origin Story We took an episode down... can you guess which one? Kc toys with quitting the podcast. Who is responsible for hurt? Do we need to sign NDAs with people to be connected to them? Could millennials and no rules days for kids solve all of the world's issues? How many psychics do you need to accept being ghosted?

Fuck the Birds; A Bloody Banking Story 06/18/2024

Fuck the Birds; A Bloody Banking Story What started as a feud with the trees, has turned into hatred for birds. KC searches for the cause of her drama in nature as the pidgeons reign poop from up above. Perhaps a person could have a trans identity on things other than gender. Maybe if Jon identified as a bird, KC could have group therapy with him so she could work through her problems. Nick sometimes wishes he weren't talking about so many things that could get him cancelled. KC did go to New Orleans. It was muggy. She ran her banking operation. Fuck the birds. Send your dreams in! , we guarantee that your dream will be read on the next show we record! /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/31799367

Forgiveness; A Hobosexual Story 05/02/2024

Forgiveness; A Hobosexual Story The trio is back with another trip to the Dream Bucket. Is KC going to pee her pants in a session, or find the love of her life while a vet fixes her shelves? It turns out Nick knows how to use a gun. It is likely what he needs to protect the TV that he has to make sure they can't take away his access to his movie collection. Jon can't remember if he forgot to forgive or needed to forgive himself for forgetting, but we can all agree that the Hobosexual was not worth peeing your pants for. Will KC finish her dissertation? Should she write it about dating apps and what they say about the health of relationships in the present day? If she finishes, her professor says she will be in the 7% who do. It's not the 1%, but it's damn close. Send your errant thoughts, shower thoughts, random wonderings about life in the Dream Bucket at so we can riff off your ideas. Thanks for listening! /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/31065228

How do different generations approach emotions and expression? How do we guide or not guide the youth through the transition from boyhood to manhood? The group discusses their various experiences with the process, and what they wish for in their surroundings. Another authentic, genuine, and thoughtful discussion amongst friends who share in community; the Dream Bucket does what it does. /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/30334818

Space Death; A Drunk Burial Story 03/06/2024

Space Death; A Drunk Burial Story Hi again. We've done it again and are excited to share! Please E-mail us at . Send us your dreams aka shower thoughts for us to pull out of the bucket at the end of each episode. For this episode, I've asked Chat GPT to make a description...here it is! It's not really very accurate...but that's something that comes with AI, political candidates, corporate financial statements, all that stuff. In this uproarious episode of "Bucked Dreams," Kc, Nick, and Jon embark on a hilariously chaotic exploration of space burial—under the influence. Amidst laughter and questionable decisions, they delve into the absurdity of unconventional burial practices, from rocketing ashes into orbit to, yes, even the bizarre realm of drunk pooping and poop drinking (don't ask). As they navigate the fine line between existential ponderings and bodily functions, join them for an unforgettable journey through the cosmos of conversation. From dying alone to social planning gone awry, this episode guarantees laughs, gasps, and perhaps a bit of introspection—all with a side of intergalactic absurdity. Tune in, but be warned: it's a wild ride from start to finish! Thanks Chad...I could've said it better myself, but not at this hour of the evening. The future! To space, where Nick can be lain (don't worry, on last report he is not dead yet)! /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/30250758

The subjects will start in the area of family and community life, and, like the Dream Bucket, bounce around to whatever comes up. Our first guest is a dear friend Alec Rogers with his daughter Aniyla. We discussed kids sports, the park board, and being involved in our kids' schools. We won't say much more about what came up, but at the end, Aniyla gave it a boringness rating of 6 out of 10...well maybe 7 she said. Perhaps it's not geared for the 2nd grade crowd, but you might enjoy it! /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/29962353

Life Path; A New Year's Abortion Story We're back in 2024! On a cruise, seeking engagement, only to find that Casablanca isn't as romantic as we had hoped.

Ms. Poopy; A Skechers Parts Story 10/25/2023

Ms. Poopy; A Skechers Parts Story Why wouldn't Skechers wear a shirt that fits to the date? How do we help the children know not to call people "Poopy?" Also, does anyone know about Internal Family Systems? With now two fully licensed therapists (congrats KC) on the show, the group dives into the "all parts are welcome" approach to self-analysis. But what is so funny about poop anyway? E-mail us at . Like really. I mean, it's been 6 months. Just test it out. Just say, "hi, I'm here, is this real."

Follow the Black People; A Cultural Appropriation Story 07/25/2023

Follow the Black People; A Cultural Appropriation Story The gang explores if a Daishiki is really breathable. Jon fails to protect KC from a bonnet blunder. KC calls out entitled rich lady at the Sushi shop. This episode dives into culture, appropriation, and Nick's listening to Oxy Cotton until he crashed his car. Perhaps he'd have been helped out by better Cultural Appropriation Insurance coverage. At least in Minnesota it's no fault. Valium could've helped that bash. Doo do doo do doo do do doo. /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/27549237

Take Me On a Date; A Beyonce Shit Story What does it mean when a guy refuses to take you on a date? Is it as bad as when you are accused of being a bully after leading the bridesmaids through a shit-show? Does Beyonce have wierd poops too? Can you really judge a person by the quality of their poop? KC may be accused of being too rigid by her ex-boyfriend, but that doesn't mean she didn't get a massage in Turks and Caicos. Jon, KC, and Nick take on life's challenges with humor and depth for another round of the Dream Bucket.

Jon Don't Need No Heaven; A Wendy's Story 04/27/2023

Jon Don't Need No Heaven; A Wendy's Story This episode jumps through a number of topics that, in writing this synopsis, I'm struggling to weave together tactfully. Instead, I'm going to write a really long sentence. Here we go. KC finishes her first Ramadan fast, Jon disagrees with Islam about the time of the sunrise, KC shares a harrowing tale of how almost failing her fast with Wendy's leads her to be there for a loved one as he bleeds from several gunshot wounds, the hosts bicker about Heaven and Hell, Jon threatens violence on a theoretical version of God, KC struggles with cat hair, gets kicked out of her Master's program, and her brother accidentally shares some intimate moments with her via his butt's ability to answer phones for him at inopportune times. Think you can make sense of it? Tune in. Think you can't? Tune in anway. Got a dream? A random thought that you'd like to hear bantered about by people who excel in random? E-mail us at .

Tobias; A Love-Bomb Story 04/21/2023

Tobias; A Love-Bomb Story The Dream Bucket has been kicked around, taken a mild pause, yet it's coming back at you for a 2nd season...which starts...now. KC's trashy dating life has had time to stew, even boil over since last we recorded. We're going to learn about a man named Tobias, and what it means to Love-Bomb (a form of psychological or emotional abuse that involves a person going above and beyond for you in an effort to manipulate you into a relationship with them). Sounds oddly a lot like parenting thinks Jon-Dad as he types this. Anyway, got a random thought? A ponderance? A dream? E-mail us at . KC says that we don't accept negative feedback, though the Board is yet to vote on that. On this episode the crew tackles the dreams of cheating on people and being able to choose your own family. Perhaps next time we'll tackle if it's possible to cheat on your family. /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/26609640

Loving the Drama; Bitches Get Tired 11/09/2022

Loving the Drama; Bitches Get Tired KC and Jon explore getting caught in drama, being drawn into drama, and stepping outside the drama. KC has been accused of "liking drama." Is it true? When Alex the Aryan from Facebook tried to sell/scam us into our first marketing product, KC slammed the door in his face several times. Meanwhile, Jon sympathized with him and suggests we exercise caution as Alex said he "is a real person and has a big team." This leads to a discussion of our pain body attracting us to drama and keeping us from healing. Jon uses cucumbers and tomatoes to tell the salad story of a drama he is working through personally. And please, don't be like KC's mom, like us on Facebook. If that's too hard, send us an E-mail at . E-mail us a dream and we'll put it in the bucket for the next episode. A dream could be any wild idea, wish, hope, or bizzare question that will spark some wonder. Bring on the dreams. /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/24951213

Jailbatin', Demons, and Other Birth Control Measures 10/26/2022

Jailbatin', Demons, and Other Birth Control Measures The little podcast that maybe can is levelling up with a new E-mail address (). We have close to 3,000 downloads, and we don't know how it's happening. KC levels up to elevated luxury in the mountains that makes her question the genetic authenticity of people who live in the mountains. Jon, aka Daddy Darko, finds Dr. Who too dark for his children while KC accuses them of being "strung out on Paw Patrol." Jon's parenting stories seem to encourage birth control and sex education, but that won't deter KC from casting a wide net and catching some fish she doesn't think belong in the lake. /episode/index/show/0ae20b47-5204-4b88-ba13-c16909cc6ae0/id/24803403
