The DLP Agenda (Formerly The Rob and Joe Show)

The Peake Boys

Robby is asked to be more flexible during Rob and Joe's involvement with the unprecedented NFL season and its ever-changing schedule. "Landlord" Dave invites Joe to meet a fan who also happens to be an old high school classmate and Rob joins them. When Joe dines with Gramps at his favorite restaurant, he discovers something he never fully realized about his father. The Jenkins knew the identity of the young punks in their neighborhood based on Joe's description last week. Joe is desperately trying to re-home Aunt Mom's cat, but Gramps keeps sabotaging his efforts. Katie and Joe offered to help some friends who own a venue do a comedy show, but instead these people bypassed the Robinson's. Joe inserts his foot in his mouth again after mishearing a word over the phone while discussing business. Joe does not like to be told a lie, so you'd better not let him catch you in one. While visiting West Virginia, Joe learns of both a salad and a dog breed he'd never heard of. Robby's on another mission targeting a company, and of course there is a long email sent to bolster his cause.

Following their first Purple Power Hour on 98 Rock, Rob and Joe evaluate the inaugural effort.

Not a Real Question

Once again Rob and Joe brave a barrage of question from the chat room about the murder mystery, hand soap, the quarantine, some hypotheticals, updates on previously covered topics and 98 Rock personnel. Super Bowl picks are submitted from the usual cadre plus some additional guest prognosticators. Jeremy updated his song following Joe's complaints.

Secret Recipe

Robby is urging more listeners to become Patreon subscribers and Rob has a brainstorm to give them another incentive. Rob has a crush on an actress who vaguely resembles Katie. Jeremy, grateful for getting some play on the show, still seems completely confused. Joe is back on Twitter and something he posted there rubbed his wife the wrong way. Joe gives a brief review of the new "Bill and Ted" sequel. Joe also has a report on Scott Apple after touching base with him just a few days earlier.

Pop Star

The Woodworth brother's are prolific musicians, but Joe feels one of them consistently falls short. Joe also admits that he's gotten way behind on listening to their podcast Quality Time. Rob and Joe participated in a 98 Rock morning show "happy hour" Zoom call, and while they were pleased with the final product apparently not everyone was. A contingent of DLP representatives travels to Mahoning Township in Pennsylvania for a drive-in movie and the adventure of a lifetime. Erik debuts the single from his upcoming album as promised three weeks ago when Gramps provided his voice for the song live on the show. Joe is not a fan of pranks where the perpetrator is not around to see the result. The likelihood has decreased dramatically that the murder mystery scheduled in just two weeks will actually happen now, and Rob and Joe express their outrage.

Mr. America

Two very special guests join the show in Joe's absence. Erik Woodworth is participating remotely because his wife would not allow him to go to Joe and Katie's home. When Rob arrived there earlier, he was stunned by what he found before even entering. Gramps lends his voice to the newest murder mystery and a musical project Erik has in the works. Justin invites several friends to be part of a read-through for a new script by an up-and-coming screenwriter. Rob's Drybar comedy special may not be available until one year from the time he recorded it. Erik has suggestions to troll Joe on his own show. This leads to a discussion about Cameo and one celebrity friend of Rob's who is raking in big numbers on the personalized message service. Erik hoped to hear one of Gramps' stories directly from the man himself, and he is not disappointed.

Go Communism!

Appropriately the show begins with a follow-up on Joe's health status.
