Seven Minutes In Evan

I said it was Seven Minutes in Evan… so I finally did a real seven-minute episode.This one’s about surviving the Texas freeze, realizing my life is basically a soft cosplay of Life Below Zero, and how natural disasters hit different when you’re no longer a single idiot with a laptop and zero responsibilities. From hurricanes in Puerto Rico, to wildfires in California, to Texas having one salt truck and vibes — I’ve somehow lived through all of it.There’s generators, propane math, prepping turning into paranoia, renter’s insurance refusing to help when you actually need it, and the moment you realize protecting your family turns your house into Fort Lopez.Quick hit. One topic. In and out.Let me know if this format works — or if you hate it.Come see me do stand-up in Austin and beyond.

Today’s Tuesday edition of Seven Minutes in Evan spirals beautifully out of control — from wholesome dad joy to Austin street chaos to horses being unwilling first responders. Evan talks about watching his daughter see a Christmas tree for the first time, creepy old men at breakfast complimenting families, his wife’s surprise jab power, and why Austin sometimes feels like “Jurassic Park but with fentanyl.”Then: the rabbit hole of police horses, special-needs kids getting VIP horse moments, what parrots may or may not repeat, and the absolutely insane P. Diddy documentary (plus the producer he knows with a wild Diddy story). Evan breaks down why baby oil might be what finally brings down a rap mogul.If you love Austin comedy, funny dad podcasts, chaotic storytelling, relatable parenting humor, or unhinged observational comedy — this episode is your church.Follow for more chaos, come see me every Friday at East Austin Comedy Club, and rate the pod unless you're a hater.#AustinComedy #FunnyPodcast #DadLife

Ever wonder what happens when your camera battery decides the length of your podcast? Welcome to fate-driven broadcasting.In this episode, Evan dives into the weird mental gymnastics of performing for tight crowds (“I’m gonna loosen you up inside”), the unhinged brilliance of Liam Neeson’s movie contract (“Taken with Wolves”), and the underground economy of Austin’s copper-hunting homeless vampires. From battling zombie hordes under the freeway to confessing his love for Lime scooters, it’s a ride through downtown chaos, comedy grind talk, and a surprising moment of sincerity about ego, jealousy, and finding joy in other people’s wins.It’s funny, chaotic, oddly motivating — and 100% Austin.Follow for more chaos, come see a show in Austin, or rate the pod unless you’re a hater.#AustinComedy #FunnyPodcast #StandupStorytelling

Comedian Evan Lopez drags podcast producer Diego Gonzales back to the mic for some good ol fashion good will hunting for brainrot. They debate whether “partner” makes you sound progressive, pretentious or both—and why Gen-Alpha slang keeps changing the rules; swap childhood wrestling memories—jorts, stunners, the Royal Rumble pop—and ponder CM Punk’s eternal straight-edge gimmick; but all leading to the big question. Does Wendy Williams have soul?.. Half.

In this episode, he breaks down what “baby brain” really feels like, how mushroom supplements are helping him stay sharp (not that kind), and why watching Taken hits differently now. He takes a detour into the Snow White remake controversy and questions why fantasy fiction still gets a bad rap.From defending magic and sci-fi to recounting his first-ever audience walkout—an Irish woman who didn’t appreciate being called “grandma”—Evan keeps it real. He shares how becoming a parent has forced more focus, less fluff, and made him double down on chasing his goals without the guilt.There’s also a Q&A from listeners, thoughts on building better reading habits, and real advice for comics thinking about moving to Austin in 2025. Spoiler: it's not all green lights.Hit play, send in your questions, and catch Evan live on stage every Friday at East Austin Comedy Club and monthly at Comedy & Caviar at the Fairmont.
