Catch-phrases / Recurring jokes

 * "First of all" are Kevin's very first words and this saying recurs throughout the podcast episodes. This would usually indicate a list of items; however there are to date no known instances of "second of all" from Kevin.
 * "Here's the thing" is another way that Kevin starts his runs
 * "Terrific" is frequently used by Kevin to indicate over-the-top positivity that may not be an accurate description of reality
 * Kevin frequently makes noises to imitate things ranging from Foo Fighter's Everlong to Bill Burr's comic delivery
 * Mana has been fired by Kevin on many episodes
 * Vic Henley, comedian and frequent guest on Opie with Jim, also runs a meat truck, according to Kevin
 * Lenny does a great impression of Kevin, which can be heard on several episodes
 * Kevin and Lenny frequently have long robust discussions about podcast monetisation (mana-tisation) on the podcast.
 * Both are keen to work out a way to make the podcast financially viable, but on many decisions, Lenny wants to 'turn left' and Kevin is adamant that they should 'turn right'. Some fans on Twitter seem to believe in a fantasy where all content should be free, which might be a sign of things to come in a post-capitalistic society, but for now, it costs money to live. Kevin has suggested that 'cheap-f**k fans' just go and work at a fast food restaurant for a few hours to be able to donate to the podcast if they love listening to it.
