In a world full of social divide, does anyone really need another comedy podcast starring four guys in a garage? According to Craig, Brad, Matt and Dave, yes ... yes they do. So, if you were into Opie and Anthony when they got along, Howard Stern when he wasn’t star-humping, or Ron Bennington when he still had a Fez, Needless to Say might be exactly what you’re looking for.

    We met these "gentleman" at Rhode Island Comic Con 2024. They were hilarious so in 2025 we had to go back! We were able to get sit with them and record an episode. It was the most fun I've had in years. These guys are phenomenal and we recommend to EVERYONE!!!

  • All of them are funny as hell and I’m always looking forward to the next one everyone is funny in their own way except Brad. Love hearing about Craig’s disgusting asshole and pissing all over Dave’s bathroom floor. Matt looks like every other millennial douche with a mustache but he’s the best part most episodes. Then there’s just Brad.
