  • 100 Episodes, a Lot of Laughs, and Why Wyatt Matters More Than Ever | Ep. 100 | Wyatt Matters
    Sep 27 2026

    It started with eight words: “I want you to start a radio show.” One hundred episodes later, Steve Wyatt brings the whole crew together to look back at the ridiculous moments, unforgettable conversations, and friendships that turned a radio experiment into Wyatt Matters.

    Bruce, Todd, Kimberlee, John, Garrett, and Maribeth join Steve to revisit some of the show’s funniest moments and reveal what they’ve come to appreciate about each other along the way. Then Steve reflects on a time when people told him his ministry was finished, and why a live microphone became his unexpected second chance to keep doing what matters.

  • Poop Concrete, an IKEA Nightmare, and What to Do When God Has You on Hold | Ep. 101 | Wyatt Matt
    Oct 4 2026

    Yes, scientists are turning human waste into concrete, and apparently it can make the finished product even stronger. Meanwhile, an Ohio couple spends their entire kitchen budget at IKEA only to discover that their new kitchen has arrived in 210 separate packages and they're the installation crew.

    Those stories about doing it yourself lead into a much harder question: What do you do when you've done everything you know to do and nothing changes? Steve examines disappointment, doubt, deferred hope, and our instinct to keep wrestling with problems we cannot control.

  • Ozempic Divorces, Adult Children Going No-Contact, and When Good Turns Bad | Ep. 102 | Wyatt Matters
    Oct 11 2026

    A weight-loss breakthrough is supposed to improve your life, but what happens when it also changes your marriage? Steve and the crew examine the unexpected relationship fallout associated with dramatic weight loss before tackling an increasingly familiar family dilemma: adult children who decide their parents no longer have a place in their lives.

    From changing appearances to broken family relationships, the conversation asks whether we're confusing what feels good with what actually is good. Steve turns to Micah 6:8 and other biblical examples to explore why doing what's right, showing mercy, and walking humbly may matter more than winning an argument or getting everything we want.

  • BEST OF: Big Gulps, Bigger Houses & the Happiness Trap | Ep. 98 | Wyatt Matters
    Sep 13 2026

    This week on Wyatt Matters, we’re revisiting one of our favorite conversations about something almost everyone is chasing: happiness.

    It starts with thousands of European World Cup visitors getting their first real taste of America—and discovering that everything really is bigger here. Free refills. Giant portions. Costco samples. Ice-cold air conditioning. What could possibly go wrong?

    Apparently: heartburn, summer colds, and a few unexpected pounds.

    Then the crew turns to a wealthy couple living in a 9,000-square-foot mansion who become convinced that one more luxury addition will finally make their home—and their lives—complete. Instead, the project becomes an expensive disaster that costs them far more than money.

    Both stories point toward the same question:

    Why do we keep believing that just a little more will finally make us happy?

    King Solomon had wealth, pleasure, success, possessions, influence, and virtually every opportunity available to a man of his time. Yet after pursuing all of it, Ecclesiastes records his conclusion: everything pursued “under the sun” apart from God ultimately fails to satisfy.

    It’s a funny conversation with a serious reminder: more isn’t necessarily better—and happiness makes a terrible finish line.

  • The Worst Cars Ever, a Chicken Crime Spree, and How to Go Over the Bar | Ep. 99 | Wyatt Matters
    Sep 20 2026

    From cars that barely start to engines that literally fall onto the pavement, Steve, John, Kimberlee, and Bruce swap stories about vehicles that tested more than their patience. Then three chickens have an exceptionally bad Labor Day, including one taken from a Florida deli and another load of frozen birds stolen from a truck while both vehicles are moving.

    The ridiculous stories give way to a much bigger question: What do you do when you believe God can help, but you still feel stuck? Steve lays out a practical approach to active faith built around acknowledging God’s power, acting on what you believe, and taking the step you’ve been afraid to take.

  • A Birthday Invite Disaster, 1,000 Strangers Eating Apples, and The Atheist Who Pretended God Was Real | Ep. 97 | Wyatt Matters
    Sep 6 2026

    One accidental click sends a child’s birthday invitation to everyone in her mom’s phone, including coworkers, exes, former students, and people she probably never wanted to see again. Meanwhile, another invitation asking strangers to simply “eat an apple with me” somehow draws around a thousand people together for five minutes of what its organizer calls “silly joy.”

    Then Steve introduces Brian Guan, a former atheist who sets out to test faith in an unusual way: live for 30 days as though God actually exists. What begins as an experiment in pretending starts producing changes Brian struggles to explain.

  • A Wheelchair Backflip, Perez Hilton’s Crisis, and When the Impossible Gets Real | Ep. 96 | Wyatt Matters
    Aug 30 2026

    A teenager loses both legs and becomes an elite climber. Another man performs backflips in a wheelchair, while a golfer fights all the way to the Supreme Court for the chance to keep competing. Their stories challenge what we assume is possible when life hands someone an enormous mountain.

    But some mountains are internal. Steve and the crew discuss Perez Hilton’s recent crisis, his reported turn toward faith after nearly dying from sepsis, and the complicated intersection of mental health, shame, online culture, and spiritual struggle.

  • A Porta-Potty Disaster, a 38-Pound Cat, and What to Do When You’re Completely Stuck | Ep. 95 | Wyatt Matters
    Aug 23 2026

    This week starts with people getting stuck in places they definitely shouldn’t be, including one Mountain Dew fan’s disastrous trip into a porta potty and an enormous cat whose great escape doesn’t go according to plan. It’s funny until the conversation turns to the kinds of situations where getting unstuck isn’t nearly so simple.

    Steve shares how loss, cancer, kidney failure, and the death of his daughter shaped what he has learned about facing seemingly impossible circumstances. The cast gets personal about their own mountains and discusses perspective, joy, honesty, resilience, and trusting God when you simply don’t know what to do.
