05/13/25 • 118 min
Get ready for a wild ride on this episode of Boomer Bunker as John Jamingo and Duchess tackle everything from parenting fails to political outrage—plus plenty of laughs and unscripted rants in between. John shares his hilarious (and sometimes embarrassing) voice memos, and we kick things off with stories of Mother’s Day chaos, the perils of live streaming, and why voice notes aren’t always as helpful as you think.
The duo dives into hot headlines: politicians staging a full-blown insurrection at a New Jersey ICE facility, the latest Democratic drama, and the media’s awkward handling of President Biden’s public appearances. Duchess and John break down viral videos, including buffalos launching tourists sky-high, the internet’s obsession with baby mamas, and the "Random Man in Atlanta" saga. There’s a no-holds-barred discussion on race, “black fatigue,” and how communities react to their controversies, all delivered with unfiltered honesty.
You’ll hear sharp commentary on school board shenanigans, social media meltdowns, and that uniquely Boomer take on the world that keeps listeners coming back. The show doesn’t shy away from touchy subjects; instead, John and Duchess cut through the noise, challenge each other, and occasionally disagree—making for authentic, engaging banter. Throw in listener interactions, AI prank segments, and side-splitting sound effects, and you’ve got a fast-paced, irreverent episode that’s equal parts insight and entertainment. Whether you love culture wars or want to escape with genuine laughs, Boomer Bunker’s got you covered.

Previous Episode
Lighter the Sand the Nicer the People | Episode 317
John Jamingo and Duchess are at it again, bringing the hot takes, hilarious banter, and no-holds-barred commentary you expect. The show starts with John lamenting George Pickens’ move from the Steelers to the Cowboys—there’s even a custom AI-generated song about the heartbreak (which is honestly worth the listen on its own). Duchess is right there with her signature sass, reluctantly getting drawn into the “Go Birds” chant and calling out the ongoing Steelers rebuild.
But things heat up when the crew dives into the controversy around Shiloh Hendrix and the viral Piers Morgan segment. John and Duchess break down the TV chaos, exploring issues around free speech, race, and what gets bleeped on-air. There’s a deep dive into uncomfortable territory, but they keep it engaging and challenging, never shying away from calling out hypocrisy—on all sides.
Then, it’s onto sports and pop culture, from Shedeur Sanders’ NFL career and “black privilege” debates to wild conspiracy theories about underground cities and aliens (with AI sidekick Grok chiming in for the deep cuts). The laughter never stops, especially when the hosts get distracted by crazy TikToks, viral clips, and plenty of Jersey-style ribbing.
You don't want to miss this one if you love spicy debates, uncensored opinions, and that “just hanging out with smart, sarcastic friends” vibe.

Next Episode
Need a Spa Day? | Episode 319
This episode opens with John Jamingo and the Duchess joking about the show’s return after a brief hiatus and openly discussing a recent behind-the-scenes conflict with another podcaster, referring to him only as “GRR” to avoid further drama. The hosts dive into their dynamic “open podcast marriage” and Duchess’s guest appearance on a Steelers podcast. This leads to a playful debate comparing regional convenience store chains Wawa and Sheetz. They compare sandwich quality and coffee and discuss Sheetz’s drive-thru as a game-changer. Tim Hortons and Dunkin’ Donuts also get critiqued, primarily for coffee quality and declining standards.
The discussion shifts to current events with news commentary: a man dies after roughhousing kangaroos, a high-profile New Jersey massage parlor gets busted, and the bizarre story of a podcaster’s marital woes and swinging gone awry is broken down in detail. John and Duchess react to recent viral clips parodying “Fat Land” and “White Nigga Season” theme parks and discuss the Diddy trial’s shocking sex abuse revelations, drawing parallels to broader celebrity scandals.
They analyze Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s appearance on Capitol Hill, emphasizing his combative exchanges with Congress over CDC funding, fluoride in water, food dyes, and vaccine policies. Political bias, fair trials, and recent high-profile legal cases are debated, with a Tim Pool “gotcha” interview highlighted. The episode wraps with shoutouts to podcast friends, stories of odd travel foods, and humorous personal anecdotes, with John struggling through persistent chest pains and technical glitches. The hosts’ banter is lively, irreverent, and packed with jokes and cultural commentary.
