Treeforts and Mixtapes

De: Bret Nelson and Josh Brence
  • Resumen

  • A fun and lively conversation between two guys that grew up across 4 decades through the analog phase of walk-talkie technology, climbing trees, playing outside, collecting trading cards and really cool action figure toys to today where they like to hang 10 on the wave of technology; now both are parents who now get to see the world through the eyes of our kids and love to reminisce about glory days of the world we grew up in… Hosted by Ausha.

  • #52 Feeling Old, Falling Apart, and the Virtual Work Trap
    Mar 15 2025

    The knees crack, the back aches, and suddenly, we’re stretching before playing ball like we’re in the NBA Finals. Is this what aging feels like? Today, we tackle the brutal reality of feeling old before we’re ready—debating the odds of inevitable back surgery and the struggle of staying active without falling apart. But here’s the real question: Has virtual work actually replaced face-to-face business interactions, or are we just pretending Zoom calls get the job done? Can you really build relationships, close deals, and read the room when the room is just a bunch of floating heads on a screen? Tune in for some laughs, some groans, and maybe some unsolicited stretching advice.

  • #51 MovieFone, Phone Books, and Life Before WiFi—How Did We Even Function?
    Mar 15 2025

    Josh just got an actual phone book in the mail… which means they still exist?! That got us thinking—how did we function before everything was on demand? From calling MovieFone to check movie times (without seeing trailers), flipping through giant yellow books just to find a pizza place, and actually figuring out how to build or fix stuff without YouTube, we survived an era where patience wasn’t optional.

    Plus, the lost art of developing pictures (and praying they turned out), building dangerous bike ramps with zero engineering knowledge, and the million-dollar question: Why are we in such a hurry now? Buckle up for a nostalgic trip to a time when life was slower, dumber, and somehow… better?

  • #50 Night Owls, Morning Gym Bros, and Gen X Love Languages
    Mar 15 2025

    Are you a morning lark who loves hitting the gym at 5 AM, or a night owl who thrives in the dark and resents society’s obsession with early risers? Today, we debate the war between morning people and night people, the guilt of not being a morning gym person, and whether anyone actually enjoys waking up before the sun.

    And since it’s Valentine’s Day, let’s talk love languages—not the ones from the book, but the real Gen X/Millennial love languages: Sarcasm, sharing passwords, and making fun of you in public but defending you to the death in private. Are we actually more romantic than we give ourselves credit for? Or did we just grow up in a time where “I taped your favorite show for you” was peak love? Tune in for some laughs, some debates, and maybe a little unsolicited Valentine’s Day advice.
