It's Ben a Week
This week, I’m going solo—no guests, just me, my unfiltered thoughts, and a whole lot to say. We’re talking about the most reckless dog owners (yeah, the ones who throw their dogs in the back of trucks like cargo—what the actual hell?), the chaos of running a podcast, and my ongoing koi pond nightmare. Spoiler: it’s still leaking. I also dive into imposter syndrome, podcast stats that blew my mind, and why this show is already in the top 10% of podcasts (what?!). Plus, a PSA to stop DMing me about how your grandpa’s dog “never jumped out” of a moving truck. News flash: until they do. Hit play, leave a review (good or bad, I can take it), and let’s get into it. 👉 Subscribe, rate, and review on Apple, Spotify, YouTube—wherever you listen. It actually helps. Follow @itsbenaweek on Instagram , TikTok , and YouTube for more chaos. #ItsBenAWeek #PodcastLife #DogOwnersDoBetter #KoiPondDisasters…

What was supposed to be a relaxing getaway quickly turned into a week of sex, drugs, blood, and an unexpected airport shakedown. We dive into: Getting detained at customs and scammed out of $500 over podcast equipment The steam room situation that had us questioning everyone’s vacation intentions A near-death dinner disaster featuring sparklers, broken tables, and a woman literally flying through the air Smuggling stolen restaurant decor (allegedly) and making a dramatic escape The hard truth about cruise ship tourists invading our luxury resort But that’s not all—this week also features a special interview with my mom , where we get into: What I was really like as a kid (she does not hold back) The proudest and most questionable moments of my life Her take on my chaos and whether she actually listens to the podcast The one thing I do now that still drives her insane From unexpected encounters to full-blown chaos, this episode is equal parts insane, hilarious, and a little incriminating.
