The fifth episode of RUSHMORE, a list podcast that covers a cornucopia of topics! Your hosts are Micaiah Albert and Josh Gallegos, two friends who have a passion for conversation. This week the boys went biblical! We choose our favorite biblical figures (excluding the obvious, Christ our Lord and Savior), and do our best to do all these amazing people justice. We also get more serious and sober than we have been in the past when discussing our life verses... and honestly we think this may be our best and most valuable conversation yet! Please enjoy!

*EDITOR'S NOTE: Unfortunately, my (Josh's) audio file was recorded incorrectly from the get-go, which led to some poor audio for me (Josh). I profusely apologize, I did my best to salvage what could be salvaged. 

The sixth episode of RUSHMORE, a list podcast that covers a cornucopia of topics! Your hosts are Micaiah Albert and Josh Gallegos, two friends who have a passion for conversation. This week we tackle a topic we are deeply passionate about - superhero movies! In fact, the boys are so passionate that we ended up spending nearly 50 minutes on our honorable mentions alone (which we compensate for by cutting the second segment). We also talk about Josh being Micaiah's thorn in the flesh, and this episode includes some of the highs of excitement and some of the controversy of differing opinions. All that to say, it is truly a mighty episode! Please enjoy!

The seventh episode of RUSHMORE, a list podcast that covers a cornucopia of topics! Your hosts are Micaiah Albert and Josh Gallegos, two friends who have a passion for conversation. On this episode we spend a good amount of time catching up since we went our separate ways a month ago, then jump into discussion on the slightly lighter topic of animals. And turns out we absolutely love animals (I mean, who doesn't?) We also give a couple of stories about run-ins we've had with animals in the past. Please to enjoy!

The eighth episode of RUSHMORE, a list podcast that covers a cornucopia of topics! Your hosts are Micaiah Albert and Josh Gallegos, two friends who have a passion for conversation. First off, apologies for the now-late upload! We recorded this episode while the entire country was still reeling from the attempted assassination on Donald Trump, which by the time of this upload has ALREADY faded in the public mind. Due to technical issues and visiting family, this episode is going up much later than intended. That being said, we were inspired by the indomitable figure of Donald Trump, so we changed gears from a previous planned list to instead our top figures in U.S. history (or top American citizens is another way of thinking about it). We have some really great discussion around the picks and around HOW to pick, and we finish the episode by recounting our experiences hearing about the attempt on Trump's life. It is a longer episode but a really great one! Hope you enjoy!

The ninth episode of RUSHMORE, a list podcast that covers a cornucopia of topics! Your hosts are Micaiah Albert and Josh Gallegos, two friends who have a passion for conversation. In a first (and hopefully not the last!), the guys have a guest host! This week, our friend and colleague Aaron Blanchard has joined to teach us a thing or two about ancient history and its battles. We also talk the value of studying such a subject, and all in all it turned into a fabulous conversation! Enjoy!
