Episodes

It was Rhode Island Comic-Con weekend, and the Official True Story Bro podcast was in town to celebrate. YES, they discussed the event, but not even close to the way you'd expect. So put aside any thoughts about celebrities, comic books, and autograp...

After a Halloween episode full of creative energy, the guys chose a lower-key approach this time around. But that doesn't stop them from diving deep into topics like high school "decades weeks," sexism at car dealerships, dangerous vehicles, and our ...

As autumn sets in throughout the region, only three things are certain: Leaves will turn, temperatures will drop, and the NTS guys will read their original horror comedy movie scripts on the air. In the fourth year of this growing tradition, these fi...

FORE! No, this episode isn't about golf. But the guys do manage to spend a lot of time discussing people who have skin in the game. They also spend a few minutes circumcising the reputations of some local businesses and discussing why the guys on the...

This week, the guys (and longtime buddy John) cover the usual array of randomness, ranging from Breaking Bad to false advertising in men's rooms to long-time careers in tree work. If you had expectations for this week's episode, throw them right in t...

For any other show, this week's episode would have been over before it started. But the NTS Four were more than up for something a little left of disgusting. From toenails to hemorrhoids to group bathroom visits to ... well, you'll just have to liste...

This week, the guys turned an empty outline into an episode Ric Flair would approve of (even if Christians won't). So, sit back and enjoy two hours of jet flying, limo riding, kiss stealing, dwarf pissing, career gambling, sneaker creasing, Jesus jok...

Staring down the barrel of a hurricane, Matt still found his way to Studio D, with the infamous Derrick in tow. This turned a typical Friday into an unreal night of discussing work rage, parenting, embarrassing songs, Guatemalan fried chicken, the Ne...

Craig, Dave, and Matt are back from their annual trip to Maine... just in time to honor the memory of Patrick Swayze. They do this by letting Brad do his week for five minutes, then diving into their unbathed weekend of drinking, fishing, drinking, a...

Not a lot of podcasts offer you two-hour discussions of chapped lips, Chinese restaurants, gross food, paper straws, the "stinky pinky," AND the best side characters in TV and movies. But then again, NTS isn't just any podcast. Light up, drink up, an...

Coming off the heels of a weird episode in Craig's backyard, the guys reconvened in Dave's luxury garage to get back on track. The result? Discussions of Underoos, shark parties, water park patrons, nipple tattoos, earwax, and Guns & Roses. It's ...

After five days of rest and relaxation, Dave is back... and absolutely nothing changed. This week, the guys sat around a pool, were devastated by mosquitos, and had life-changing discussions about bland chicken, undercooked seafood, restroom karaoke,...

What happens when Dave takes a week off? Chaos, that's what. This happened, via discussions of comedian Joe List, QAnon customers, upright farting vs. seated farting, Lizzo's bananas, Marvel movies, and other things that are bothering them. Dave can'...

The guys are still recovering from their week-long, 300th episode hangover, so they were understandably a little low-key. But that didn't stop them from hitting the skull to cover all the usual suspects -- work, love, life, laughter, tree truck restr...

After 2,190 days, 52,560 hours, 171,853 beers, and 1.26 million poorly rolled cigarettes, Needless to Say is turning 300! This humble little podcast -- which no one believed would last -- celebrates more than six years of unwavering immaturity, occas...

Right before their monumental 300th episode (and still recovering from Craig's party) the guys got together for a relaxed night discussing sun-baked crab, oblong nipples, actors who would play them in a movie, and the growing local legend of the Lady...

This week, there's no time for clever writing. Just know that this episode contains discussions of death row meals, dollar store drug paraphernalia, songs for movie soundtracks, non-vegan raccoons, adolescent male concerns, and the guys' new favorite...

This week, the guys dive deep into the recent Titanic submersible news, handling it with all the grace and decorum you've come to expect. Also, Dave has a nighttime emission, Matt gets hood-cred permission, Brad continues to lose his inhibition, and ...

The NTS guys are overdue for a normal episode. Unfortunately, this isn't it. A week after being violated by cheap furniture, the guys reconvene to discuss an all-new listener question -- this time about tipping for takeout. Also, they get to Brad's r...

This week, the guys had an unexpected fire lit under them. But instead of sitting and taking a pounding, they pushed back, leaned into the pressure, and ultimately stood together in the end. They discussed the unexpected rise of Matt Rife, unsung her...

For the first time in weeks, all four guys are back at the table... just in time to discuss their medical conditions. Matt visited the dentist. Brad adhered to medicine labels. Dave explained rickets to new listeners. And Craig hit on his chiropracto...

The guys decided to take some time off and enjoy the long weekend. But that doesn't mean there isn't stuff to share. This week, they present the second half of their amazing conversation with Vietnam veteran, retired policeman, and -- perhaps most im...

On the back of cold medicine bottles is a warning -- "Do not take if you consume three or more alcoholic beverages per day." Brad didn't listen. So, on a night when Dave was already missing, Brad mixed his IPA with some FDA, let Craig and Matt do the...

A lot of NTS episodes require a detailed explanation. This isn't one of them. Instead, for nearly 2.5 hours, the guys discuss the following items at length: The smells of a mid-week metal concert. Dave's adventures in airport restrooms. Craig's famil...
