Episode 281: Ft. Noah Garcia - Denim Tailoring, Engagement First Impressions, and Prank Calls

About this episode

Nathan and Tim discuss Noah's engagement, denim tailoring experiences, and childhood prank calls.

In this episode, Nathan and Tim take their first-ever official phone call professionally recorded on the podcast—and it’s for a very special reason. Nathan’s brother, Noah, calls in with some big news: he’s engaged! While Noah keeps most of the details under wraps for now, the call gives the hosts their first impressions of the engagement and kicks off the conversation in a memorable way. Outside of the call, Nathan shares the surprisingly fascinating experience of watching his wife Sophia get her jeans tailored in Los Angeles. Then Tim takes things in a completely different direction with a story from his childhood: the formative years of doing prank calls long before AI.
