Introducing...The Drained Battery Society

Introducing...The Drained Battery Society
Season 1
  • Show Notes
  • Chapters

Welcome to The Drained Battery Society—the comedy podcast for people who are barely charged and fully opinionated.

In this debut episode, host Peter Conway introduces the Society and dives headfirst into the strange realities of modern adulthood. Why does food feel like a rental agreement? When did suspenders become a legitimate fashion choice? Why is working from home so much better than pretending fluorescent lights build character? And why does your back insist on holding committee meetings before you'll move a couch?

Also this week:

  • The very first Drained Battery Society Universal Truths
  • A salute to the completely unnecessary invention of Dr. Pepper Tic Tacs
  • Fake sponsors you'll wish were real
  • A recharge recommendation featuring Bad Monkey on Apple TV+
  • An invitation to tell us what's draining your battery each week

If you're over 50, exhausted by modern life, suspicious of new products, and increasingly aware that your body has become middle management... you've found your people.

Welcome to the Society. Keep your battery between 20% and 80%, keep your expectations low... and get off Peter's lawn.

Drained Battery Society.

I know...you haven't listened yet. But seriously, try this episode out, and if you like it, leave a review, or you can use the share button over the episode card to send to a friend or two who can't get off the couch without making a noise. Maybe it'll give them 30 minutes to decide whether they REALLY want to get up at all. 

New episodes every Tuesday, and you can find us wherever you get podcasts.

Drained Battery Society

Drained Battery Society podcast is for people who remember life before passwords, QR-code menus and being asked to download an app just to park the car. It's a field guide to modern adulthood for anyone who's accumulated a little wisdom, a few aches and pains, and plenty of opinions. Hosted by Peter Conway, each episode examines work, relationships, modern life and the thousand small indignities nobody warned us about—along with fake sponsors, questionable product spotlights, questionable advice, listener email, Universal Truths, and the occasional recommendation that's actually useful. There's probably more, but we need a nap and our hands hurt.

Drained Battery Society. Barely charged. Fully opinionated.
