Money, money, money, mooonnneeeyyy. Moooonnneeeyyy! Ya know, like the song. Ross and Patrick coming to you post couple’s business meeting so they needed to unpack said business immediately. Not as fun as sex but equally as uncomfortable to talk about. Sounds fun, right?

Have you heard the news? Pod people are getting engaged without actually meeting face to face! They are potentially mating and procreating while in the pods with the assistance of new technology that involves a blue tooth speaker, a ukulele, and goblets of wine. The apocalypse is a upon us and we must act fast. Just kidding! Love Is Blind is a new dating show on Netflix and Ross and Patrick are obsessed. The show is probably contributing to the downfall of society but who cares?! Listen to Ross and Patrick spoil the entire show by unpacking and ridiculing everything about it.

Ross & Patrick had exactly an hour to hang out together this weekend so they recorded this podcast to tell you all about wackin' off together in Puerto Rico. Happy President's Day!

Well they’re back from the tropics and they’re depressed. However, it felt like Christmas morning on Sunday in Brooklyn because after a week apart, they finally reunited with PEGGY! So all is not lost - least not in the Holbertineau house - but the nation is a full blown nightmare. While on their magical vacation in Puerto Rico, Ross and Patrick still kept tabs on the White House of Horrors and the democratic shim sham, and most importantly The Bachelor. Tune in to hear all about the food, the beach, the relaxation, and the tv watching. They missed you!

This episode is all about the Super Bowl and sports! JK, only a little bit. We love you, thanks for listening, we'll be back next week after vacation!!

Perhaps our most taboo topic yet!

This week Ross and Patrick are back to bouncing around from topic to topic. They know you missed that. While they prepare to be parents, they’re willing to dish out all the unsolicited relationship advice you didn’t ask for. Ross is reading about how to be a French parent, while Patrick wants to be the next bachelor. Come along for the bumpy ride all to the tune of the Backstreet Boys. It makes sense if you listen so just do it.

A day late and several dollars short, happy 2020 everybody! We hope all your New Year dreams come true. On this episode we recap a week of revelry in the great state of Maine. It's a silly one- Patrick now does manual labor for work and Ross was kind enough to listen to his self pity for an hour. Enjoy!!

Here's a little short and sweet episode for you guys! Patrick and Ross just got home from P's big show and wanted to do some processing. So much gratitude and appreciation and thankfully not as much second guessing as usual. The pair also chat about the incoming New Year and the outgoing 2019 through the eyes of Barack Obama. Enjoy and thanks for all the listens over the past year!!

Hey y’all! Happy holidays! Ross and Patrick check in and tell you their travel plans for Christmas week even though you didn’t ask. Don’t forget they’re so grateful for you.

Ross, Patrick, and Peggy joined chosen family Eddie and Gregory in Boiceville, NY for the weekend. With a stocked fridge, they tucked themselves away in a cabin surrounded by snow. Patrick and Gregory puzzled while Ross and Eddie definitely did not puzzle. Be teleported away while Ross and Patrick recount their weekend of rest, relaxation, overeating, and Peggy pissing everywhere.

Pregnancy, sonograms, Whitesnake, oh my! What do these things have in common? Absolutely nothing of course. Somehow Patrick and Ross end up talking about 80's hair metal after they’ve subjected you to the literal ins and outs of their first OBGYN appointment. Friends, the fever dream continues. Don’t you want to see how it all plays out?

Luxe is a sex positive, body positive, burlesque performing witch who also happens to run a creative arts program for children. She is a radical lady who’s ready to dish all things taboo. This self-described heathen also happens to be Ross and Patrick’s friend, neighbor, and dear aunt to Peggy. She does it all! Let the sex magic commence!

It’s been two weeks since you’ve heard from Ross and Patrick and they’ve missed you terribly. Don’t worry- everything is ok. They just went on vacation aaaaaannnnndddd got some major life news. So they put a pin in it and now they’re back to overshare and answer all the questions you never asked.

Even though Kelly, Ross, and Patrick have known each other for over a decade, this was definitely the most time they've ever spent together. Prior to recording this episode, Kelly put Peggy through two hours of her dog training paces. She's the dog whisperer of Ross and Patrick’s dreams and is helping them turn their little Peggy right around. Goddess bless this woman. We swear she was not held hostage.

Enjoy this week's episode!

Overview In an informal discussion, participants reminisced about memorable experiences from 2005, including social gatherings and the cultural impact of shows like The Apprentice, particularly focusing on Donald Trump's early public persona. They shared anecdotes from a New Year’s Eve party that blended family friends and comedians, highlighting the unique dynamics of such interactions, particularly with karaoke involved. Topics evolved to parenting, where they discussed appropriate restaurant behavior for children and established a 'two-cry rule' for public settings while suggesting ways to compensate disturbed diners. Conversations continued on living arrangements with parents, weighing the benefits of proximity to family against independence, before transitioning to creative ambitions for the New Year, including goals for a YouTube channel and the challenges of content creation. Action items were identified, including producing more clips for the YouTube channel, posting recorded shows, and considering original documentary projects to enhance viewership.

Cassandra Cushman is an actor. She's a writer. A psychic, a witch, a healer. She's so many things beyond this realm we can’t fit it all in this little paragraph. Take a listen as these three spirits connect on a multitude of levels and maybe life times! Whoa, man... One thing is for sure, Cassandra speaks Ross and Patrick’s language (and Peggy’s language too for that matter). She's a highly attuned witch who is incredibly well versed in astrology with an MFA in acting. The Who Cares pod loves this lady so much that Ross and Patrick invited her to be a recurring part of the program. Don’t you want some astrological check-ins from the freaky witch herself? We knew it! (We read minds now.)

Ross, Patrick, and Peggy went upstate for a family wedding and Patrick’s 20 year high school reunion. Everyone came away from the weekend feeling emotionally hungover from the bittersweet highs and the stress-induced lows. Ross and Patrick balanced having a good time with their respective brands of generalized anxiety while Peggy exhausted herself from love, attention, and gnawing through her crate cover. What they thought would be a fun recap of the weekend turned into a much deeper conversation about love, partnership, and showing up for each other. Don’t you want to hear Ross and Patrick process their feelings more? We knew it!

This week we care about Juno Tempest, a comedian and writer in Brooklyn. Join us for a titillating convo about astrology, sex work, trans issues, and young love in NYC. You can hear more from Juno on her weekly show "Sad Trainee Poetry Hour" on Radio Free Brooklyn every Sunday at 4pm. She's also the host of the Genre Reassignment comedy show at Branded Saloon in Prospect Heights.  

Did you miss Ross and Patrick last week? They felt terrible that they didn’t record an episode for you. (Just tell them you missed them. They’re very sensitive and crave validation). Have no fear, they’re back and they recorded while driving upstate because vehicular multitasking is worth it for their fans. It's you all who keep this empire running. The fans and Jesus. Mostly Jesus actually (Is anyone else watching 'The Family' on Netflix??). Anyway on this episode, R and P talk camping, 12 step programs, cults, and up tight neighbors. Cool, right?

Billy Procida, the "Manwhore" himself, is in the Who Cares podcast studio! He talks to Ross and Patrick about standup, podcasting, sex work, and turning his sex positive slut lifestyle into a career. Billy claims to be extremely problematic but Ross only found minor problems here and there. Overall, this threesome had a lovely in depth conversation about relationships, sex, and societal closed mindedness. The trio also decided they’re doing the lord's work and that the world needs more whores out in the open, especially in this political climate. So tie yourself up, grab your vibrator and have a listen to Billy Procida! Check out Billy's show, "The Manwhore Podcast: A Sex-Positive Quest" here!

When Ross first met Patrick, he was a reality TV producer who used a blackberry constantly and hair product never. (Ross' subsequent fashion and cultural influence on him cannot be understated.) He also had a long term "work husband" by the name of Chuck Thornton with whom Patrick road-dogged across the country to tell the stories of many while eating the garbage of few (when it comes to food, they’re kind of alley cats). Join in as Patrick and Chuck reminisce about their days as collaborators while Ross asks some hard hitting questions and calls them nerds.

Ross and Patrick's main junk food TV show obsession is The Bachelor/Bachelorette franchise and its trash spawn, Bachelor in Paradise. The entire Bachelor brand is based on the myths we were all sold about love and relationships during our Disney-enhanced childhoods. On this episode, the Who Cares hosts discuss the first episode of Bachelor In Paradise, the drama that ensued, and how little do all these hormone-hyped contestants know, they’re all in open relationships and navigating them terribly. With a dog-eared copy of The Ethical Slut in hand, Ross and Patrick read some wise words from this revolutionary polyamory bible to discuss all the mistakes and missteps happening in Paradise.

Lindsay Goldwert is a journalist, podcaster, comedian, author, and all around fascinating human. She joins Ross and Patrick to discuss the exciting release of her first book, Bow Down: Lessons From Dominatrixes on How to Get Everything You Want. Listen as they dive into the taboo territories of sex and money and how empathy and empowerment are not mutually exclusive. Lindsay shares about the alpha females featured in her book and the incredible power of example Dominatrixes can be to women in all walks of life, not just the bedroom. So strap in and strap on because BDSM is a contact sport where you can learn a lot about yourself. Just be open to it, ok?

He's our (self-proclaimed) #1 fan and newly appointed President of the Who Cares Fan Club. This week we welcome back Bro of the show Dave Martineau! He’s 31, he’s single, he’s in therapy, and he’s uncomfortable with his sister’s openness. Dave traveled to NYC for the weekend to bro down with his sis by going to karaoke, the beach, and watching a healthy dose of Xanax television (The Office). He regales Patrick and Ross with insane tales of online dating, and his plans to rescue dogs from negligent women via dating apps. Pop in your head phones, turn up the volume, and get your tinnitus pumping while your hosts give unsolicited advice to their numero uno.

Did you know there’s a sex-positive dating app for singles and couples? Well there is and Ross and Patrick have done lots of swiping left and right. In this episode, they talk about digital dating while married and how doing so after 7 years of monogamy is fuckin' scary! Couples therapy has saved R and P more than once and transparency and negotiation are the keys to their open relationship. This one is so fun they sing a song about a herpes infected eagle! You’re definitely gonna want to add it to your Spotify playlist.

As we were recording this felt like the last podcast of 2024, not the first of 2025. So please pardon our appearance and attitude and general malaise. This one was recorded mainly to keep the streak alive. Ross didn’t want to do it and I barely did either. But we are here and perhaps there’s a nugget of truth or connection that will bring some pleasure into your day? Thanks for listening!! Here’s to a happy and healthy new year.

This week Patrick and Ross catch up after being separated by The Road for four days. Ross experiences shades of single motherhood while Patrick was out performing at various breweries around the northeast trying to make enough money to feed his dog-ter back home. Listen in as the two share their respective adventures and discuss life ahead.

Ross and Patrick summer in Connecticut now. And yes, they prefer their favorite season in verb form. On this episode join them and Peggy for a ride down I-95 as they chat about family dynamics, son-in-law responsibilities, and bangin' in Ross' childhood bedroom. If that still doesn't sound like enough oversharing, don't worry! They’ll also relive the details of last week's challenging couples therapy session.

It's episode 50!! Can you believe it?? It only took this duo 50 episodes to decide what they really care about (or at least what they actually want to talk about): Sex, love, alternative relationships, and everything in between! This week Ross and Patrick reveal more about their foray into ethical non-monogamy and their plans for sexual world domination (Kidding! They only wanna start a sex cult. Or maybe a commune). Does all this sound scary and confusing and like too much information? Then maybe sit this one out. Or does it sound captivating and titillating and like you’ve always had questions about things like this? Then dive into the warm poly embrace of this week's show. XOXO!

Not these two!

This week Patrick and Ross and their third co-host and dog, Peggy, drive southbound on I-95 and talk about all sorts of things. (Well truthfully, Patrick and Ross do most of the talking while Peggy naps in a donut formation in the back seat). Take a listen as The Family Holbertineau mourns the passing of their dear Aunt Sue, discuss father's day, and share their gratitude for the kind feedback about last week's bombshell episode from supportive listeners. Get Pegged ya'll!

On their most revealing episode yet, Ross & Patrick discuss STI's, non-monogamy, and sex in general. If you thought it was impossible for them to be even more transparent, take a listen as Ross shouts her truth from the rooftop while Patrick skittishly divulges his. With this podcast, they hope that by opening up more, they can promote more positive conversation around sexual health and relationships. Open your mind (and maybe your legs) to this week's show!

Well last week they were being voyeurs at the dog park and now their sitting IN the dog park. Ross’ dreams finally came true... she wore Patrick down and got them a dog!!! Welcome Peggy, the adorable mutt to the Holbertineau family. Peggy came into their life as a foster from In Our Hands Rescue and she’s staying in their lives as their doghter. Ross and Patrick talk about how becoming dog owners has already begun to change their lives for the better and the unexpected. Peggy is a precious little girl who makes people smile wherever she goes. What were they supposed to do, not adopt a living breathing stuffed animal?! What are you, insane???

Join Patrick and Ross on a walkabout in their neighborhood of Bushwick, Brooklyn. They grab a coffee, visit the dog park (where they are creepy dog voyeurs), spy on one of their favorite listeners (Hi, Kiersten!), and process the departure of some of their best friends from New York (farewell, Jen & Bay). Oh and Patrick hops a fence to collect $20 he saw with his eagle eyes from across the park. We hope you enjoy this more experimental episode of Who Cares!

It's time to talk about these god damn abortion bans. Predominantly conservative white male legislators across this country are making decisions about female bodies, and the hypocritical snow ball effect knows no bounds. Ross does some research on exactly what these laws mean and where they’re taking place, all while mocking these men and their terrible southern accents. The Who Cares duo hope that by using the small platform they have, they can at least spark conversation and let people know how they can take action. Ross is not interested in being “ofPatrick” and she hopes you feel the same. We’re in this together! Here are some links to a variety of articles and organizations that will keep you informed and tell you how you can make a difference. We love you, keep going! https://www.thecut.com/2019/05/how-to-help-alabama-6-week-abortion-ban-georgia.html https://www.vox.com/2019/5/16/18628002/abortion-ohio-alabama-georgia-law-bill-details https://abortionfunds.org/ http://www.stopabortionbans.org/ https://yellowhammerfund.org/ https://www.aclu.org/

Happy Mother's Day, y’all! This week we take some time to thank all the mamas out there. Mothers can be biological, surrogate, adopted, chosen, or any other way you can think of someone becoming a MOTHER. Ross and Patrick start by celebrating the women who birthed them into existence, Betty Ann and Jane. Listen in as these two moms make guest appearances on this week’s episode as Ross and Patrick make their mother’s day phone calls. Come share in the love! Matriarchy Now!

Take a listen as she explains her love for beauty, makeup, and glamour. And boy bands. And Selena. And RuPaul’s Drag Race. And Motley Crue, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Tupac, and Murder She Wrote, and Columbo. She’s a complicated woman, ok? She’s got taste and opinions and she’s not afraid to tell you all about it. Nef has come to the Who Cares recording studio to spill the T, and throw the shade (when warranted). Enjoy!

Ross and Patrick are recording in bisolation again! Do you wish they had a guest? Well they don’t, so get over it. Separated for a week, they're using this episode to hear about each other’s respective adventures. Patrick was on the road in New England and Ross was hard at work in Bushwick. Join the gruesome twosome in the "studio" and find out how their doing post “Argument” Episode Heard 'Round The World.

This episode starts in the thick of an awkward relationship conversation. A bit of a tiff. Ross and Patrick are cranky and tired and on different emotional pages so they decided to bring the listener with them on this uncomfortable journey of challenging communication. It's an inside peak into the highs and lows of marriage. Sometimes couples have to hash some shit out while they podcast because there’s no time like the present, right? RIGHT?! Also, they were too busy to record any other time, sooooooo... Wanna hear what 8 years of commitment and knowing everything about each other sounds like? Have a listen!
