Welcome To The Suburbs

Listeners tell us Welcome to the Suburbs is as polished and funny as a good morning radio show. We’ll take it.

Hosted by longtime friends Andy and Greg, Welcome to the Suburbs finds the humor in everyday life—the things we all see, experience, and think about, but don’t always stop long enough to notice.

Funny observations lead to unexpected conversations that rarely end up where they started. From marriage, parenting, and getting older to travel, technology, neighbors, and the increasingly strange world around us, nothing is off limits if there’s something funny to be found.

With professional audio, original comedy, and episodes that don’t overstay their welcome, Welcome to the Suburbs is the perfect podcast for listening while you’re running around in your car, heading to work, walking the dog, or wondering how your life got this complicated.

Funny observations. Unexpected conversations. A genuinely good time.

Welcome to the Suburbs.

Shout out to Boardman, Oregon!
Andy helps Greg find the humor in caring for his mom as she slips further into dementia. How she gets lost in her shirt as she puts it on, thinks the stairs in her home lead to a secret passage, and her sudden love for the 70’s band Foreigner leave the guys with tears of laughter.

Andy has a portfolio of signs to remind himself that the soldering iron is on or the back gate is open. His Alzheimer’s starter kit. He also relates that audio engineering is 10% technology and 90% psychology as they laugh about awkward moments in the studio.
