The Elder MillennialOct 6, 2026 · 31 minThis week I get into millennials getting older, AI stealing comedians’ jokes, why live comedy might actually become more important, my weird obsession with birds, why pigeons deserve veteran benefits, and why I don’t trust Goldendoodles.

Seven Minutes In Evan: The Worm GuySep 30, 2026 · 44 minThere comes an age where doing the worm stops being impressive and starts becoming a medical decision.This week on Seven Minutes In Evan, we get into growing up as “the worm guy,” why the 2010s were basically society’s teenage years, and how 2000s love songs from Akon, Nelly and company convinced an entire generation of boys they were heartbroken before they’d even had a girlfriend.From there, things somehow turn into dating, relationships, the savior complex, OnlyFans, porn culture, how much money it would take to embarrass yourself on the internet forever, having kids, and realizing some of the music you loved growing up hits very differently when you’re a grown man. 🎤 Come see me live, watch clips, listen to thepodcast, and find everything here: https://beacons.ai/evanlopez 📲 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamevanlopez 📺 Watch full episodes & comedy clips: https://www.youtube.com/@EvanLopez 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1law6HzyxvgV1NMXmt70n2 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/seven-minutes-in-evan/id1494001499 😂 Interested in booking a comedy show for yourcompany, private event, or venue? https://topflightcomedy.com/PlayPlay Seven Minutes In Evan: The Worm Guy

Pigeons, Pedro Pascal & ParentingSep 18, 2026 · 1 hr 12 minEvan and Daylen accidentally turn a normal podcast into a deep investigation of pigeons, parenting, Pedro Pascal, Taylor Swift, Rocky, door-to-door solicitors, and the horrifying realization that you eventually become the dad yelling at people to slow down in the neighborhood. We get into why pigeons are legitimately incredible, the weird world of celebrity obsession, bombing horribly when you first start stand-up, raising kids without immediately handing them an iPad, and all the tiny things nobody tells you about becoming a dad. 🎤 Come see me live, watch clips, listen to thepodcast, and find everything here: https://beacons.ai/evanlopez 📲 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamevanlopez 📺 Watch full episodes & comedy clips: https://www.youtube.com/@EvanLopez 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1law6HzyxvgV1NMXmt70n2 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/seven-minutes-in-evan/id1494001499 😂 Interested in booking a comedy show for yourcompany, private event, or venue? https://topflightcomedy.com/PlayPlay Pigeons, Pedro Pascal & Parenting

Welcome to the birdyverseSep 2, 2026 · 45 minThe bird videos have officially taken on a life of their own, so this week I’m answering some of the questions people have been asking: Where did the birds come from? Do I actually know anything about birds? Am I worried I’m going to get pigeonholed as the bird guy? And what happens when I eventually run out of birds? But before we get there, naturally I somehow end up talking about AI girlfriends, why horror movies have gotten way too intense, having to fight a home intruder in your underwear, ghosts, spirituality, the afterlife, neighborhood apps, and why people who explore haunted houses have absolutely lost their minds.PlayPlay Welcome to the birdyverse

Becoming a real "Texan” with Dean StanfieldApr 21, 2026 · 1 hr 17 minI sat down with comedian Dean Stanfield and we went deep into Texas culture, what it actually means to be a “real Texan,” relationships that make no sense, and why dating as a comedian is basically a full-time psychological experiment. Dean gets real about trying to become a better partner, why musicians are his weakness, and the chaos of balancing comedy, love, and life. We also get into wild stories—from bull riding arenas in backyards to one of the most unexpectedly emotional dog stories you’ll hear on a comedy podcast. It’s funny, it’s unfiltered, and it somehow turns into a full-on plan to build Dean his own dating show. If you like stand-up storytelling, real conversations, and slightly unhinged Austin comedy energy… this one’s for you.

This episode goes everywhere—in the best way. We start with getting called out by listeners (fair), drift into Disneyland chaos and grown men obsessed with Lilo & Stitch, then somehow land in the weird world of influencer boxing and whether Mike Tyson might accidentally kill someone on a “friendly” card. From there it gets real: OnlyFans deals, how social media can quietly tank your reach, and why the internet is basically one long Black Mirror episode. Then we close it out debating whether becoming a reindeer furry during the holidays might actually fix society.

This week on Seven Minutes in Evan, I officially entered my mid-30s villain arc: caring about my community, arguing about fences, and almost getting nominated as HOA president against my will.

What AI will evolve into - Part 2Feb 6, 2026 · 7 minPart two of the AI spiral — and this is where it gets weirder. In this episode, I keep pulling on the thread from part one: if AI keeps evolving, does it eventually crave human emotion? Does it want to be human? Or do we end up in a symbiotic relationship where AI optimizes our bodies, our health, and our limits… while something else about us quietly atrophies? I go from alternate timelines of technology (messenger pigeons vs smartphones), to symbiotic AI fixing our bone density in real time, to humans evolving into something closer to mushrooms, sonar creatures, or telepathic weirdos drifting through space. This one turns into a conversation about instincts, discipline, self-integrity, and what happens when we outsource too much of our awareness. If AI ever does take over, and we end up in a Skynet situation, it might honestly be on us — because we saw it coming and kept building the bonfire next to the gas factory anyway.PlayPlay What AI will evolve into - Part 2
What AI will become in the future sadlyFeb 5, 2026 · 7 minThis episode jumps from big, existential AI questions to the dumbest human uses of technology, Skynet paranoia, Jungle Book references, and somehow lands in a tiny hardware store where there’s a cat on the counter — and suddenly I’m emotionally invested in buying one screw just to support that cat’s lifestyle. It’s part tech anxiety, part observational rant, part “what if AI gets bored and becomes obsessed with entertainment like the rest of us?” Listen until the end if you want to hear how AI might develop jealousy, fear, and self-awareness… and how that’s probably our fault.

From hurricanes in Puerto Rico, to wildfires in California, to Texas having one salt truck and vibes — I’ve somehow lived through all of it.There’s generators, propane math, prepping turning into paranoia, renter’s insurance refusing to help when you actually need it, and the moment you realize protecting your family turns your house into Fort Lopez.Quick hit.

Austin Is Basically Jurassic Park NowDec 9, 2025 · 20 minToday’s Tuesday edition of Seven Minutes in Evan spirals beautifully out of control — from wholesome dad joy to Austin street chaos to horses being unwilling first responders. Evan talks about watching his daughter see a Christmas tree for the first time, creepy old men at breakfast complimenting families, his wife’s surprise jab power, and why Austin sometimes feels like “Jurassic Park but with fentanyl.” Then: the rabbit hole of police horses, special-needs kids getting VIP horse moments, what parrots may or may not repeat, and the absolutely insane P. Diddy documentary (plus the producer he knows with a wild Diddy story). Evan breaks down why baby oil might be what finally brings down a rap mogul.

The Giggle Of GodDec 3, 2025 · 34 min“Jesus is coming” signs, brain rot, and the Giggle of God — yeah, we’re starting there. In this one, I’m ranting about religious childhood trauma in the funniest way I know how — youth pastors whispering “Lord, come inside all of us,” yard signs that say “Jesus is coming,” and how wearing a cross is basically spiritual incognito mode plus a VPN for your sins. Observational humor meets absolute blasphemous brain rot. Then I accidentally invent my new alter ego: “God’s Giggler.” I paint this whole scene of me backstage at an Austin comedy club with a tiny cigar, lightning in the ceiling, a kid in a Peaky Blinders hat holding a bucket, and me declaring, “God’s feeling funny tonight.” This is pure stand-up storytelling energy from an Austin comedian who’s maybe taken pre-workout for his imagination. From there we slide hard into funny dad podcast mode: first-year parenting as a full-blown stress test. Baby breath-holding, fevers, rashes, thinking “Welp, guess my baby’s dead now” every 10 minutes, and realizing other parents were right when they said, “You are not busy until you have kids.” If you like parenting humor that’s way too honest, you’re home. I talk about how having a kid nuked my ability to waste time on dumb arguments, turned my 2-hour gym sessions into 45-minute efficiency missions, and forced me to kill a bunch of ego just to survive. Less stewing in drama, more doing reps — in the garage and in life. We also get into screen addiction and babies: my daughter going full Gollum over the phone, why we basically had to break up with FaceTime, and my fantasy of going full flip-phone while still needing Venmo, maps, banking, Amazon, and to run an entire career as a new comedian in 2025. It ends kinda wholesome: how the holidays hit different now, why small-kid years are this fleeting magical window, and how I’m trying to stop living for “the next thing” and actually enjoy the mess I’m in. If you like relatable comedy, funny life stories, and listening to an Austin comedian overthink fatherhood in real time, this is it.

From battling zombie hordes under the freeway to confessing his love for Lime scooters, it’s a ride through downtown chaos, comedy grind talk, and a surprising moment of sincerity about ego, jealousy, and finding joy in other people’s wins.

Then I spiral into a rant about comedians flying to Saudi Arabia, jiu jitsu guys comparing themselves to sea creatures, and a Krav Maga class that taught me how to beat up imaginary pigeon feeders. 🎭 Live shows every Friday 6PM at East Austin Comedy Club📍Follow me on Instagram: @iamevanlopezPlayPlay Life Below Zero Lifestyle

In this enthralling episode, Evan delves into the enigmatic world of O.J. Simpson—a man who sprinted from American hero to the heart of scandal.
