  • Herm's House Podcast - Season 4 | Episode 2 - She Lied in Church. He Watched Football.
    Oct 16 2026
    We’re back in the new studio, and this week Herm actually followed the show notes in order. (Kristin would like it noted that this is a first — and that he still managed to skip Herm’s Football Minute.)Herm’s been training for the Hero Walk and his body has filed a formal complaint: everything is fine… except from the neck down. Between the four-mile training walk, three innings as a Diamondback that somehow hurt for four days, and Kristin’s knee blowing up to the size of a grapefruit after a 30-minute walk, the Hermosillo athletic department is not doing great.Then it’s Sweet Sixteen time. Herm and Kristin were the Ninos — the godparents — for their goddaughter Bella, which is how Herm ended up playing Lumière from Beauty and the Beast in the court dance, singing out loud and twirling around the room with candlesticks made from Cricut vinyl rolls. (Not paper towel rolls. The vinyl rolls are sturdier. Words are hard.) His flame fell off, he blew out his own candle, and all four boys — three teenagers and a seven-year-old in full suits — had to be kept serious in church. It did not go well. Somewhere in that empty church, on a wooden pew, a fart echoed… and by the end of rehearsal, even the priest was asking about the football score.Speaking of football: the playoff game got moved UP two weeks. The Vail Vikings now face the #1 seed in the entire town this Saturday, October 17, they’ll be missing one of their biggest players, and they’ve been practicing almost every day. A true underdog story. Disney, call us.We also learn how fantasy football ruined Kristin’s ability to enjoy football — she let ChatGPT draft her team, she’s 1-4, and there IS a punishment for whoever finishes last — and Herm tells the story of the very first rule of dating him: you have to like his teams. House divided is not an option. There’s photo evidence from their first big trip to prove it.Plus: the fall break that will not end (week THREE?!), the urgent team meeting that definitely could have been a text, and the countdown to the event gauntlet — Kristin’s Florida conference, their FIRST EVER cruise (during hurricane season… while Kristin is reading a shipwreck book… because of course she is), Thanksgiving, and Senior Day.And one last Hero Walk plug before we go: Saturday, November 7, 8:00 AM at The Station Pub & Grill in Marana. Herm is walking all 11 miles with a speaker strapped to his vest playing his music, so bring your own headphones if George Strait isn’t your thing. Kristin will be driving behind him. Beeping. Details are in the episode — and in the link in our bio.New studio. Same notes (mostly). Same chaos.

  • Herm's House Podcast - Season 4 | Episode 1 - We Survived September
    Oct 9 2026
    We’re back! After an unplanned break, a brand-new studio, and a month that genuinely tried to take us out, Herm and Kristin are back behind the mics — recording for the first time at PHP Studios.Between full-time jobs, coaching, kids, and a September that somehow felt like an entire year, life has been pure chaos. But we survived September… barely.Herm kicks things off with Herm’s Football Minute, and it’s a wild one. The Vail Vikings had already turned in their helmets and planned the end-of-season party when every single team they needed to lose actually lost during the bye week — and just like that, the Vikings backed into the playoffs as the #16 seed. Their reward? A first-round matchup with the only undefeated team in the entire league. The helmets have been handed back out, practice is back on, and Gordy has no say in the matter.Then Herm shares what might be the greatest work weekend of his life. Through his job at Waste Management — an MLB partner — Herm got selected for a baseball fantasy camp and spent the day as an Arizona Diamondback: full uniform, his own #13 jersey (Gordy’s number), his own walk-up song, the actual voice of the Diamondbacks announcing his name, and the biggest fan section in the park. And yes… the very first ball hit his way? He dropped it. In front of everyone. Right after Gordy warned him, “You better do good.” (He caught the next two. Redemption matters.)That story turns into one of our favorite life lessons: just ask the question. The worst that can happen is they say no — and it’s the same philosophy that once landed us a tour of Michael Jackson’s house.From there, we get into what it’s like being married to your complete opposite: people recharge Herm, people drain Kristin, and September drained her completely. Which leads to one of our realest conversations yet — neither of us needs the other. We have our own money, our own lives, our own everything… and we still pick each other every day. Plus, the official Herm’s House fight rule: don’t touch me, don’t look at me, but don’t you dare leave.And to close it out, it’s finally official: the inaugural Herm’s House Hero Walk is happening Saturday, November 7. Herm is walking all 11 miles (in a weight vest, because of course he is) to honor our veterans, starting and ending at The Station Pub & Grill and benefiting Hero Breakfast. Walk the whole thing, meet us at a stop, or just come cheer — all the details are in this episode.New studio. New season. Same chaos.

  • First Flags, Fuzzy Memories, & Fart Smiles
    Aug 25 2026
    This week on Herm’s House, we came prepared with absolutely no notes… so naturally, things went exactly as expected.Herm kicks things off with a very special edition of Herm’s Football Minute after Gordy finally accomplishes something they’ve been working toward for years—pulling his first flag in a game! Between the Vail Vikings getting their first win of the season and Herm nearly jumping out of his shoes celebrating, it was a pretty big football weekend.From there, the conversation takes a sharp left turn into childhood memories.Herm and Kristin start comparing how far back they can actually remember, which somehow leads to broken ankles, Christmas Segas, snakes, preschool naps, fire drills, being bullied over drawings, Sesame Street Live, recorders, Three Blind Mice, Hot Cross Buns, and the realization that siblings can remember the exact same childhood completely differently.They also wonder which moments their own kids will carry with them forever—and how seemingly tiny experiences can shape the way we see ourselves years later.And because this is Herm’s House, a meaningful conversation about childhood, memory, and different life paths eventually turns into alternate timelines, military jobs, forgotten movie quotes, mysterious noises, and the discovery that Herm apparently has a very recognizable “fart smile.”No notes. No plan. Just another completely normal conversation inside Herm’s House.💡 In This EpisodeGordy finally pulls his first flagThe Vail Vikings get their first win of the seasonHerm’s Football Minute returnsCelebrating the little victories in youth sportsA busy weekend that somehow felt “quiet”Game Night and the Colonel Sanders mysteryHow far back can you actually remember?Herm’s earliest childhood memoriesBroken ankles, snakes, and Christmas SegasKristin dropping out of preschoolFire drills and childhood sensory memoriesGetting bullied over childhood drawingsGlasses, nicknames, and things that stick with youHow siblings can remember the same childhood differentlyWondering what memories our own kids will keepAlternate timelines and what jobs we might have chosenWhy Kristin thinks she could have been an aircraft maintainerThree Blind Mice, Hot Cross Buns, and recorder nostalgiaRandom childhood songs we somehow still rememberHerm’s allergies trying to take him outFerris Bueller quotes gone wrongThe newly discovered “fart smile”⚡ Episode Highlights“He pulled a flag!”“I almost jumped out of my shoes.”“I dropped out of preschool.”“What memories are actually going to shape him?”“We lived the same childhood and remember it completely differently.”“Life moves pretty fast.”“You had the fart smile.”🎙️ Chapters00:00 – Knee Injuries & Starting the Show02:30 – Herm’s Football Minute03:00 – Gordy Pulls His First Flag04:00 – The Vikings Get Their First Win05:00 – Our Apparently “Quiet” Weekend07:00 – Game Night & Colonel Sanders09:00 – How Far Back Can You Remember?10:00 – Broken Ankles & Childhood Stories12:00 – Christmas Sega Memories15:00 – Snakes, Siblings & Early Memories18:30 – Kristin Drops Out of Preschool20:00 – Fire Drills & Sensory Memories26:00 – Childhood Bullying & Things That Stick29:00 – Sesame Street Live & Family Memories30:30 – How Siblings Remember Childhood Differently33:00 – Recorders, Three Blind Mice & Hot Cross Buns35:30 – Allergies & Random Texas Talk37:00 – No Notes, No Problem38:00 – Ferris Bueller & The Fart Smile40:00 – Wrapping Up🎤 Sound Bites“He pulled a flag!”“I dropped out of preschool.”“Bye-bye, Ernie.”“What memories are actually going to shape him?”“We lived the same life and remember it differently.”“You had the fart smile.”“Life moves pretty fast.”🔑 KeywordsHerm’s House Podcast, family podcast, parenting podcast, marriage podcast, childhood memories, funny childhood stories, youth football, flag football, football parents, football coach, parenting memories, sibling memories, childhood trauma, nostalgia, millennial nostalgia, preschool memories, funny couple podcast, veteran family, military family, family stories, parenting humor, comedy podcast, Tucson podcast, Arizona podcast🤝 THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORSANCHOR FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS GROUP, LLC🌐 www.anchorfinancialsolutionsgroup.com📍 2544 E. 10th Street, Tucson, AZ 85716📞 520-620-5320Thank you for supporting Herm’s House Podcast and helping us continue sharing the laughs, memories, family stories, and everyday chaos happening inside Herm’s House.📌 Support the ShowIf this episode brought back some childhood memories of your own:⭐ Leave us a review👍 Like the episode💬 Tell us in the comments:What is the EARLIEST memory you can remember?And for the very important follow-up question…Do you have a fart smile? 💨😂Follow @HermsHousePodcast and subscribe wherever you listen so you don’t miss the next episode.Support the show
