Connect More

The Connect More crew

This 2026 Signal Award-winning podcast features four pals who’ve known each other for decades, swapping stories of shared experiences, new adventures, and recurring nightmares. Connect More is a Gen X variety show about the things that connect us: music, family, work, friendship, food, sports, politics, pop culture, and the stories that remind us where we came from. Every episode mixes humor, honest conversation, good-natured ribbing, and the occasional spirited debate. Consider this your reminder to ‘connect more’ with your circle of friends. Pull up a chair! New episodes weekly!
