My Boys Rewatch: “Mixed Signals” (Episode 2) | Behind the Scenes + Wild Stories
Tuesday, February 10, 2026 • Duration 51:04
Welcome back to Who Needs? — A My Boys Rewatch, with Jamie Kaler (Mike Callahan) and Michael Bunin (Kenny Moratori). In Episode 2, “Mixed Signals,” the guys break down how early My Boys was still finding its voice — from the Sex and the City-style voiceover to the moment the show starts becoming its own thing.
They talk behind-the-scenes reality: shooting the pilot, disappearing for months, then suddenly getting picked up and rushing into production with no writers’ room in place yet. You’ll hear stories about Crowley’s bar, poker nights, improv tags that snuck into takes, and how “dating” used to mean going home to check your email (yes, really).
The episode also turns heartfelt as they remember and toast Pat Finn — a beloved performer, friend, and one of the funniest, kindest people in the room.

We Rewatched the My Boys Pilot After 20 Years… Wow
Season 1 · Episode 1
Tuesday, February 10, 2026 • Duration 51:46
It took 20 years, a streaming resurrection, and the invention of Twitter (which we were once told not to use)—but here we are.
Welcome to Who Needs?, the official My Boys rewatch podcast, where Jamie Kaler and Michael Bunin revisit the pilot episode with zero filters and full memory loss.
In this episode:
The very first table read
Six auditions to play… yourself
Why “do it better” is the most terrifying director’s note
The pre-Twitter era when posting backstage could get you fired
Poker scenes that took 8 hours
Guest stars we somehow survived
And the realization that we were all drunk, younger, and wildly confident
If you loved My Boys, this is the behind-the-scenes stuff you never heard.
If you’ve never seen it—good news: all four seasons are streaming now on Amazon Prime.
We’re rewatching one episode at a time, telling the stories we probably shouldn’t, and bringing on cast, crew, and friends who made the show what it was.
So crack a beer, shuffle the chips, and ask yourself the only question that matters:

The My Boys rewatch is officially into Season 2 — and this one sent Mike Bunin, Jamie Kaler, and Victor Nelli in about 15 different directions.
In this episode of Who Needs, the guys revisit My Boys Season 2, Episode 1, “The Transitioning,” and immediately discover that a few jokes from 2008 hit VERY differently today.
They break down PJ and Bobby’s trip to Italy, debate whether two former hookups can really take a romantic Italian vacation “as friends,” revisit Mike’s Matthew McConaughey impression, and stumble onto one joke that stopped everyone in their tracks.
Then, naturally, the conversation spirals into Gen X humor, dating and “backsliding,” joke stealing in stand-up comedy, Robin Williams, Bill Burr, Christopher Hitchens, Sting and The Police, Billy Corgan, songwriting credits, and why Jamie is apparently capable of arguing either side of absolutely anything.
Somehow, they eventually make it back to the episode.
In this episode:
The My Boys joke that definitely didn’t age well
Why Season 2 feels different nearly 20 years later
PJ, Bobby and the Italy trip
Mike Bunin’s Matthew McConaughey impression
Dating, ghosting and the mysterious “backslide”
How comedy has changed since the 2000s
Comics stealing material
Robin Williams and stolen jokes
Sting, The Police and who really deserves songwriting credit
Jamie Kaler explaining why he’s always right
If you watched My Boys when it originally aired, tell us: what parts of the show still hold up — and what moments could never make it onto TV today?
