Stories From the Middle of Nowhere...The Things We Weren't Supposed to Tell

Stories from the Middle of Nowhere is a collection of the true, unbelievable, and occasionally questionable things that happened to us growing up in the rural edges of North Dakota — the things we weren’t supposed to talk about, the things adults pretended not to see, and the things that still make us laugh, cringe, or wonder what exactly was wrong with us.
These are the stories that shaped us: the late night adventures, the small town mysteries, the family chaos, the near disasters, and the moments that only make sense if you grew up in a place where the horizon is wide, the rules are loose, and the adults are… distracted.
Told with humor, honesty, and a cinematic sense of memory, each episode pulls you back into a world where kids roamed free, trouble was always one bad idea away, and every secret felt like it could change everything.
This isn’t nostalgia.
It’s confession.
And it’s long overdue.

ABOUT THE HOSTS

Judy and Donny grew up in the same house, survived the same chaos, and somehow came out with the ability to laugh about it. Their stories are real, their memories are sharp, and their chemistry is the kind that only siblings can pull off — equal parts affection, exasperation, and “do you remember when…?”

Together, they bring these stories back to life with warmth, humor, and the kind of honesty that only comes from telling the truth after all these years.

S1 E12 - Life Skills Not Included

In the final episode of the season, Judy and Donny look back at how they entered adulthood with absolutely no life skills. Paying bills? Nope. Grocery shopping? A disaster. Donny’s first solo shopping trip even turned into an underwear fiasco that still makes him cringe. They talk about the conversations they never had — including the birds and the bees (Judy is still waiting for hers) — and the “child‑friendly” crime explanation that almost got Donny in trouble at school. They dig into why the

S1 E11 - Underage and Unsupervised

From a 13‑year‑old’s makeup‑caked attempt to buy TJ Swann, to Donny aging himself with motor oil, to Judy dodging a police raid by pretending to bus tables, this episode dives into the chaotic, unspoken rite of passage that underage drinking became in small‑town North Dakota. It’s a story about risk, improvisation, and the consequences that usually showed up in the form of our dad — the one authority figure we never managed to outrun.

S1 E10 - Evicted: The Prequel

At seventeen, both Judy and Donny were evicted from their homes for wildly different reasons — one for smoking, one for a hammer and a radiator — sending them into parallel journeys through mice‑infested trailers, chaotic jobs, and the strange freedom of starting adulthood with absolutely nothing. Judy becomes an apartment manager overseeing convicted felons and whackado renters, while Donny heads to Gillette, Wyoming for his first DJ gig, where the men outnumber the women 12 to 1 and the odds a

S1 E9 - Breaking News: Us...Again!

Judy and Donny are back with a collection of stories from a childhood where every minor incident somehow became a headline. In their family, even the most ordinary days had a way of ending up in the newspaper — whether they wanted the attention or not. There’s the time their mom called 911 over a beehive and a reporter showed up with the police. Judy’s first day at work turned into a public spectacle after her car was smashed, her commute was broadcast on the traffic report, and she arrived two

S1 E8 - Donny: A Lifetime of Accidental Mayhem

In this combined episode, Judy and Donny revisit the week that proved Donny should never have been left in charge — and the lifetime of spectacular bad luck that followed him everywhere he went. It starts with a rear‑end collision while driving our mom, escalates when a bicyclist flips over Donny’s hood on the way to pick her up (with a TV news crew filming the whole thing), and ends with a backyard grilling disaster that singed off her eyebrows. But that week was only the beginning. From sneak

S1 E7 - Fast Forward: The Road Gets Weirder

In this Fast Forward episode, Judy and Donny jump ahead to the years when the family’s car chaos didn’t calm down — it evolved into something stranger, darker, and somehow even funnier. Their dad asks Donny to drive a corpse across the country to save money, suddenly can’t see white cars, and relies on their mom to guide him from the passenger seat. Meanwhile, Judy racks up hit‑and‑runs and Donny hits a streak of accidents that prove adulthood didn’t make anything safer. This chapter blends dar
