This episode has absolutely no business flowing as well as it does... but somehow it does.
Casey, Damien and Tommy jump on a remote recording after Casey's injury, and what starts as a quick sports recap quickly turns into one of the most entertaining episodes of the season.
From controversial boxing stoppages and WWE rumors to World Cup predictions, Taylor Swift's wedding, fake lawsuits, and why Casey is apparently trying to sue concrete... absolutely nothing is off limits.
This episode includes:
š„ The latest boxing news, controversial knockouts and upcoming Louisiana fight cards
ā½ USA's World Cup run, Belgium preview, World Cup hot takes and why soccer fans may never forgive us
šŖ WWE rumors including Seamus, Sami Zayn, Brock Lesnar, Danhausen and everything happening in professional wrestling
š NBA offseason chaos, blockbuster trades and what it means for the Pelicans
š Casey's injury update and Tommy's completely serious legal advice on who to sue
š¤ Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce and one of the most random celebrity conversations we've ever had
šŗšø Fourth of July stories, European heat waves, America's obsession with free chips and salsa, and about 37 other topics we somehow managed to squeeze into one episode.
If you like sports, wrestling, boxing, sarcastic humor, and three friends arguing about things they're probably way too confident about... this one's for you.
šļø Group Chat Podcast ā Sports, laughs, terrible takes, and just enough facts to keep us out of trouble. (Usually.)

Group Chat Podcast ā Season 2, Episode 5
This week, the Group Chat crew welcomes a very special guest to the studio: Mitch Orgeron, the Parish President of Lafourche Parish.
In one of the biggest episodes in GCP history, Mitch sits down with Casey, Damien, Nick, and Tommy for an open and honest conversation about the future of Lafourche Parish. We break down the upcoming millage renewals, hurricane preparedness, recreation projects, public health services, drainage, tax reform, and what happens if the proposed renewals fail.
Plus:
- The story behind election night and becoming Parish President
- Major projects coming to South Lafourche and beyond
- The future of recreation facilities and boat launches
- Listener questions from across the parish
- Why transparency matters in local government
Of course, it wouldn't be Group Chat without a little chaos. Before the President arrives, the boys debate NBA Finals predictions, soccer, vacations, youth sports, and somehow manage to work in Freezer Burn and Halloween cancellation jokes.
Whether you're voting in the upcoming election, interested in local politics, or just want to hear an informative conversation with one of the parish's leaders, this is an episode you don't want to miss.
Stream live, join the conversation, and welcome the Parish President to the Group Chat. šļøš„

The boys are back... well, half the boys.
With Nick and Tommy missing in action, Casey and Damien take the wheel for a two-man edition of the Group Chat Podcast, which somehow goes exactly as you'd expect.
The guys dive into the South Lafourche softball coaching drama, discuss why Facebook comment sections should probably require a license, debate tax reform despite admitting they're wildly unqualified, and wonder if Grand Isle town meetings are secretly performance art.
Along the way they tackle:
š Flash TDC League updates
š„ The coaching carousel nobody asked for
š£ Blue Boot Bombs taking over Louisiana sports
š Golden Meadow's new basketball court
š James Harden slander
š¤ Coach O's return to LSU
š± Facebook drama correspondents (applications now being accepted)
š Broadcasting live from Kyle's wedding
šØ And approximately 47 other topics
It's an hour of sports, community talk, questionable opinions, and enough rabbit trails to make a GPS quit.
No script. No plan. No Nick. No Tommy. Just Casey and Damien trying to keep the train on the tracks.

Segment: āWhat Would You Rather?ā (aka Psychological Warfare)
Welcome back to the most unserious serious debate on the internet.
This week, the Group Chat takes a simple game and turns it into a full-blown argument that somehow includes:
- questionable life choices
- unnecessary confidence
- and at least one person defending something they absolutely should not be defending
š The question sounds easy⦠until itās not:
Would you rather deal with love bugs that bite like gnats⦠OR have love bug season last 12 months a year?
Yeah⦠exactly.
What starts as a harmless āwould you ratherā quickly spirals into:
š people changing their answers mid-sentence
š someone getting irrationally angry about bugs
š and a debate that lasts WAY longer than it should
No facts. No research. Just vibes, bad takes, and elite-level arguing.
š§ If youāve ever yelled at your friends over something completely pointless⦠this segment is for you.
š Drop your answer in the comments (and be ready to get roasted for it)

šø Group Chat Podcast (S2, E3) ā Mount Rushmore: Best Dad Rock Band of All Time
This one got LOUD⦠and slightly aggressive š
The boys dive headfirst into the ultimate Dad Rock debate, where logic goes out the window and nostalgia takes over. It starts off simple⦠until one pick sparks a full-blown barroom flashback:
š» A legendary story about āBig Steveā ā the OG concert menace who would crush 1,000 beers and DEMAND AC/DC no matter who was on stage. Play it? Youāre legends. Donāt? Youāre TRASH. Simple.
From there, it turns into a heated debate of hit-after-hit bands, including a passionate defense of Foreigner as the most underrated killers in classic rock history.
š¤ Is AC/DC the undisputed king of dad rock?
š¤ Is Foreigner actually the sneaky #1 pick?
š¤ And which bands are getting WAY too much credit??
No rules. No structure. Just grown men yelling about bands their dads played in the truck.
š Drop your Mount Rushmore of Dad Rock in the comments and be ready to defend it.

Welcome back to Not Mottās Mailbagā¦
aka āWe asked AI for questions and immediately regretted it.ā
Powered by pure chaos (and ChatGPT), this segment starts off innocent⦠and then goes completely off the rails.
𤯠WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT
- Would you want to know the exact date you die⦠or just live in blissful ignorance?
- What age officially makes you āoldā (and why everyone over 40 is catching strays)
- Would you rather:
- Stop brushing your teeth š¬
- OR stop wiping your ass š¤¢
- Cajun uncles vs high school coaches trash talk debate
- The most overrated Louisiana festivals (we said what we said)
- Why outsiders absolutely ruin crawfish culture
- And somehow⦠we debated whether a nutria could beat 50 crawfish
šØ THEN IT GOT WEIRD⦠FAST
Because this is where things spiraled:
- āIf aliens landed in Lafourche⦠what confuses them first?ā
- āWhat would you change rain into?ā (someone said tacos⦠terrible idea)
- āWould you be late forever or early forever?ā (anxiety kicked in)
AND THENā¦
We somehow ended up in:
š The most insane hypothetical legal case ever
š A full debate about Siamese twins, marriage, and custody
š And a conversation that probably gets us banned in 3 countries
Ā
š BOTTOM LINE
This segment has:
ā Zero structure
ā Questionable morals
ā Life decisions you should NOT follow
ā And at least 3 moments where we shouldāve stopped talking
But didnāt.
š§ WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH
If you like:
- Random debates
- Dark humor
- Louisiana chaos
- And friends arguing like idiots
This is your episode.

The Group Chat Podcast is BACK⦠and this episode went completely off the rails.
We start with the NFL Draft and immediately realize the Saints are building a hospital roster instead of a football team. If your WR1 and WR2 need matching hospital beds⦠is it even a rebuild anymore??
Then we jump into the NBA playoffs where:
- OKC is apparently unbeatable
- The Knicks are doing Knicks things
- And somehow weāve all watched a total of 6 minutes combined
So yeah⦠expert analysis as always.
BUT THENā¦
We get into Bayou Brawling weekend and things escalate FAST:
- A guy fought with no teeth and no mouthpiece (yes, seriously)
- A main event ended in a DQ that nobody understands
- Fans nearly caused a full-on riot
- And the night ended with police escorts and ādonāt leave the roomā warnings
Just your normal Friday/Saturday in Louisiana.
Ohāand somewhere in the middle of all this:
- We debated Saved by the Bell trivia like it mattered
- Argued about pizza sauce
- And questioned if the Pelicans should just⦠move cities
š§ SEGMENTS IN THIS EPISODE
- Saints draft reactions (aka medical evaluations)
- NBA playoff frauds & contenders
- Bayou Brawling recap + Zane Marks controversy
- Mount Rushmore + What Would You Rather
- Random chaos that somehow makes sense
š§ BOTTOM LINE
This episode has:
ā Bad takes
ā Great takes
ā Fights
ā Almost fights
ā And zero structure
Just how GCP likes it.

The Group Chat Podcast is BACK and completely off the rails in Episode 2. No script, no plan⦠just vibes and chaos.
Casey and Damien hold it down with a full Down The Bayou sports rundown, breaking down All-Region teams, coaching shakeups, and why the talent around here is just built different. If you love local hoops talk⦠youāre getting it. If you donāt⦠youāre still getting it.
Then things take a turn.
Freezer Burnt joins the show 24 HOURS before fight night and proceeds to:
- Call out his opponent
- Guarantee a win (respectfully disrespectfully)
- Break down his ā4-piece comboā like itās a Popeyes special
- Confirm that half of Lockport is pulling up
We also get into:
- LSU panic season (for no reason as usual)
- Wrestling takes that may or may not be accurate
- Random ChatGPT questions that spiral the show into nonsense
- And somehow⦠Burger King sponsorship opportunities
At some point, we go from serious sports talk⦠to debating life, fighting, and why some people probably shouldnāt be allowed near a boxing ring.
Moral of the episode:
If you came for structure⦠youāre in the wrong place.
If you came for laughs, local takes, and pure Group Chat energy⦠welcome home.
