Jack Selby and David Hart bring their brand of irrelevant irreverence through music, sound effects, and sports and rap references. (Artwork courtesy Gozie Okoro, @starving_arts)

Back like Jordan, wearin' the 4-5, David and Jack reunite in-person from the crown jewel of the Mid-Ohio Valley! David talks about his impressions of Parkersburg, before they talk about where Kanye West went wrong in his presidential bid, cooking chickens in Yellowstone's scalding hot water, the good news regarding COVID-19 vaccines, and the first Underemployed babies!

Fresh off the heels of a Lakers championship victory, Jack talks about how it temporarily lifted him out of his depression and served as a reminder of why sports are great. He and David also talk about the decision by Kevin Cash to take out Blake Snell in Game 6 of the World Series, venomous Virginia caterpillars, getting arrested for rapping about unemployment fraud, fans at sports games, David's stupid voice, the lost concept of time, and tell the infamous story of them going down to JMU for Halloween in 2014 and losing their car!

Gozie Okoro rejoins Jack and David to wrap-up the OutKast bracket. Will "Vibrate" continue its Cinderella run, and can "Gasoline Dreams" continue its concurrent ugly step-sister run? Can anyone stop the juggernaut that is "B.O.B."? Will Jack be able to prevent David from slandering Barry Bonds? How much music can be played before the show gets a cease-and-desist order? Find out the answers to (most of) these and more!

"Hey Ya!" and "Ms. Jackson" may be misguided wedding songs, but can they advance past the first round? Can a song where Andre 3000 talks about "jerkin' his jimmy" really be considered fine art? Will Jack's dislike of "Gasoline Dreams" impact its run? All of these questions and so many more will be answered in part one of a two-part tournament bracket to determine the best OutKast song, featuring acclaimed writer/kinda sorta friend of Jack, Gozie Okoro. All 64 songs will be analyzed, sampled, and judged, for your listening pleasure! Plus they end the episode by remembering the late Chadwick Boseman.

In a collection of material from the original recording of Episode 41, David talks about the fall of the Detroit Red Wings and lack of success for Canadian NHL teams, confusing soccer terminology, Jack talks about the temporary ineptitude of the Nats' grounds crew, the possibility of J.R. Smith fighting an animatronic Disney World figure, and Gardner Minshew being your dad.

There's some dorks in this house! David and Jack return, explaining why they've been dropping less frequently, but feeling rejuvenated by the return of sports. They discuss...
NHL (4:05-9:43) Including what's been wrong with the Washington Capitals.
Champions League (9:45-15:04) Including How David feels about the new 5-subs rule
MLB (15:05-20:02) Including Jack questioning why there can't be a Home Run Derby this year, and a World Series prediction from David we guarantee you've never heard before.
NBA (20:03-26:56) Including Jack lamenting J.R. Smith becoming a Laker.
And then they wrap it up by discussing what they would rename the Washington NFL franchise, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson saving the XFL with his handsome, manly arms.

It's been a hot minute, but (probably) worth the wait! Jack and David are joined by the former's dear friend and coworker, TV's Brittany Morgan (the Tiger Queen herself). They talk to her about how she took after her dad, the... inspiring(?) talk he gave her at 12, figuring out what she wanted to do in life, the journey all three took to graduating college, her overcoming fear and self-doubt when she first became a journalist, training to be a wrestler, how she's doing without baseball, and how her friendship with Jack came to fruition over the years. Oh, and they talk about that time he asked her on a date with the elegance and grace of a newborn giraffe trying to stand up.

Once again crowdsourcing for content, it's the fourth Q&A episode of Underemployed! Jack and David catch up on life a bit before getting to the questions (around the 11:10 mark of the episode), which include THAT question about Carole Baskin, Tom Brady leaving the Patriots, mean questions about Jack, worst dates, music people would be surprised they like, how the two have maintained their friendship for so long, and so much more. Plus a bonus bit sees Jack fantasize about cloning Mannie Fresh!

With the Coronavirus having grounded the world to a halt, Jack and David lament the loss of the Mascot Melee Bracket, but have a backup plan in mind. They do a mini-bracket of the greatest American sports moments, including a Barry Bonds civil war, a patriot vs. a 98 year old nun, telling Hitler to shove it, Charles Barkley's views on Angola, and not realizing until halfway through the episode that they forgot to include the Miracle on Ice. All this and more in what we hope will be a fun distraction!

Cowboy Jack and Old Man David take the world by storm, a grizzly battles a cyclone, being punished by The Lord, a whole lot of Shaq references, and plenty more! To celebrate the two year anniversary of Underemployed, David and Jack take a look back at each of the episodes over the past year for YOU PEOPLE, including the guests that range from a platonic friend, to an infectiously positive fitness trainer, a ferocious native of Richmond, and a bonafide YouTube celebrity! Plus they receive well-wishes, or at least wishes of SOME variety, plus the return of the Supercut of the funniest lines at the end.
