The Bucket Boys Podcast
Welcome to The Bucket Boys Podcast with Gunnar Cain and Zak Rector.
Two friends.
One bucket.
Zero preparation.
Each week, we pull a completely random topic submitted by listeners and let it spiral. From unhinged news stories to everyday chaos, nothing is off-limits once it comes out of the bucket.
No scripts.
No guardrails.
Just stand-up instincts, real-life perspective, and chemistry that goes off the rails fast.
New full episodes weekly.
Pure randomness.
What’s in the bucket this week?
