  • # 19 - New House, New Cohost, New Era of GTNS
    Apr 5 2025

    Big episode, big changes! After 18 episodes of shoutouts and stories, Paige—Matt’s fiancée and longtime behind-the-scenes MVP—joins Good Times, Noodle Salad as the brand-new cohost! We talk about what it’s like remodeling our new place together, how many things we’ve actually checked off our vision board, and the wild world of idioms.

    We also say a bittersweet goodbye to Chris as a full-time host. He’s stepping back from the mic, but don’t worry—he’s not gone forever and may be popping in as a guest down the road.

    Oh, and we settle an important cultural debate: Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell is trash. We said what we said.

    New era, same nonsense. Let’s get into it.

  • # 18 - Hyper Fixation, Haters, and Sending Cam Off
    Mar 23 2025

    In Episode 18 of Good Times Noodle Salad, we dive into a mix of personal reflections and random life moments. We talk about the nature of hyper fixation—how certain interests or goals can sometimes take over our lives and the challenges that come with it. Then, we get into handling the haters on Instagram, especially when it comes to weight loss and body image, offering our own strategies for dealing with online negativity.

    We also talk about the exciting (and stressful) process of buying a house, and the highs and lows of that whole experience. Plus, we break down Mike Israetel’s content and his impact on the fitness world, and how it shapes the way we approach our own training and health.

    Lastly, we wrap up the episode by sending off our good friend Cam, who’s heading off to the Air Force. We’re keeping it light though, because after recording, we’re heading out to party with Cam and send him off in style!

    Join us for another fun and real episode with your favorite noodle heads!

  • #17 – New Theme Song, Same Emotionally Impaired Hosts
    Mar 16 2025


    Good Times, Noodle Salad just got a fresh coat of paint—well, at least a new theme song! In this episode, Matt and Chris dive into their ongoing weight loss journeys, including Matt’s progress on Ozempic and their lifelong struggles with food, fitness, and motivation. They also unpack what it means to be "emotionally impaired," sharing their experiences navigating life, work, and relationships with a sometimes-broken compass.

    The guys also take a detour into the world of home shopping—because nothing says responsible decision-making like impulse-buying big-ticket items. Plus, a conversation about the power of great friends and why having the right people around can make all the difference.

    It’s real, it’s raw, and as always, it’s a good time.

    In this episode of Good Times, Noodle Salad, brothers Chris and Matt Smith serve up a hilarious mix of childhood nostalgia and healthy goals. The duo reminisces about their glory days of prank calling as kids, swapping stories of innocent (and not-so-innocent) mischief.

    And of course, Law and Order: SVU makes its regular cameo—anytime one of the brothers accidentally taps the mic boom, it’s time for an impromptu performance of the iconic theme song. It's a fun, chaotic tribute to the show that keeps them laughing.

    On top of all that, they kick off their new weight loss challenge for February, aiming to lose 25 pounds each by sticking to a diet and walking 10,000 steps a day. Can they hit their goals, or will life’s distractions (and maybe a few more SVU sing-alongs) derail their progress?

    Tune in for the laughs, the theme song, and all the shenanigans as Chris and Matt tackle February with a side of humor and determination!
