{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Surely we can’t be Serious","slug":"mrogers18","podcastDescription":"

A podcast where real life takes a back seat to laughs, stories, and the kind of conversations you’d normally only hear at the end of a long night with friends.

Hosted by Mitch Rogers, Jim Podratsky, and Joey Brown — with producer Mike Carroll keeping the wheels on — the show proudly avoids politics, religion, and anything overly serious. Instead, the crew dives into pop culture, music, sports, nostalgia, random debates, and whatever else sparks a good time.

It’s lighthearted, unpredictable, and built on the simple idea that sometimes the best conversations are the ones that don’t matter at all.
