In this episode, we talk about our mission to become the best hosts in the neighborhood... if only anxiety would stop crashing the party lol. We dive into the Unclaimed Baggage 2025 report, a fascinating and kinda unhinged roundup of the bizarre (yet nunu nana) items people leave behind in lost luggage. Zach covers the story of a man who tracked down his own stolen truck and is now changing careers to become a private detective. Plus, we discuss David Archuleta being a PG-13 hottie, and Beyoncé’s stunning music. You know you're homework, go listen with lyrics pulled up... why are you still reading this? We're gonna go have a gin martini with Sammich. Well Zachariah is. Jonathan will pout.Want BONUS CONTENT?

About Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathan Carson
Hey Happy Campers! Camp Counselors is a good natured podcast hosted by your favorite fake camp counselors Zachariah and Jonathan. Here at Camp Shady Birch we love the great outdoors in theory, but we’d rather spend our time making friendship bracelets, spreading camper gossip, keeping our heads in the clouds, and avoiding archery. We know we would make great camp counselors minus the fact that we know nothing about camping. So grab your sunscreen and bug spray because things are about to get campy.
