  • Honorary Doctorate: Emptying Husband's Pockets

    Honorary Doctorate: Emptying Husband's Pockets
    May 5 2026
    On the Brant Hansen Show, even an ordinary Tuesday can turn into “graduation day.” In classic Brant fashion, honorary doctorates are being handing out to listeners whose everyday skills deserve a spotlight.

    For this episode, for example, we have:



    • Maria Esposito Weed earned her PhD for the heroic act of rescuing ink pens from her husband’s shirt pockets before laundry disasters strike




    • Kelly Ara received her doctorate for an unwavering commitment to completing customer experience surveys.

  • Honorary Doctorate: Spoiling Baby Goats

    Honorary Doctorate: Spoiling Baby Goats
    May 5 2026
    On the Brant Hansen Show, even an ordinary Tuesday can turn into “graduation day.” In classic Brant fashion, honorary doctorates are being handing out to listeners whose everyday skills deserve a spotlight.

    This episode’s standout scholar?
    A listener requesting a doctorate in spoiling baby goats — a field so niche that Brant briefly misheard it as “spoiling baby ghosts,” which, honestly, would’ve raised even more questions. But misunderstanding aside, the committee (which is just Brant and Sherri laughing) agreed she has absolutely earned her honorary status, tears over sold goats and all.

  • Honorary Doctorate: Bulletin Layouts

    Honorary Doctorate: Bulletin Layouts
    May 5 2026
    Brant and Sherri’s beloved “institution of higher learning” — the ever‑improvised Brant Hanson Show State University Tech, A&M — is back in session, and the honorary doctorates are rolling out faster than they can update the clip‑art certificates.

    Listeners have been flooding the phone lines to nominate themselves, and this week’s graduating class is a masterpiece:
    • Heidi Hackney earns her degree in church‑bulletin layout excellence
    • Janae Wilson is honored for her unsolicited but enthusiastic driving coaching
    • Jen Malone receives a well‑deserved doctorate for surviving her first homeschool graduate.


    It’s academia… but with way more laughter and significantly fewer accreditation standards.

  • Honorary Doctorate: Veggie Tales

    Honorary Doctorate: Veggie Tales
    May 5 2026
    Graduation season always brings big feelings, and Brant & Sherri are fully prepared to cry over nieces, nephews, and probably anyone wearing a cap and gown.

    In the spirit of all this emotion, they’ve officially declared their show a “doctorate‑granting institution,” where the standards are low, the degrees are imaginary, and the only requirement is that you’re awesome at something — anything.

    Listeners were invited to call in and claim their honorary expertise, which is exactly what Evan did.

    Fresh off his real college graduation, he requested a doctorate in Veggie Tales, proudly declaring himself the top scholar in his friend group.

    Brant immediately granted it, reacting with the kind of heartfelt enthusiasm usually reserved for actual diplomas, proving once again that this is the most supportive fake university on the planet.

  • Honorary Doctorate: Delayed Argument

    Honorary Doctorate: Delayed Argument
    May 5 2026
    Graduation season has officially arrived at the most prestigious, loosely organized, completely imaginary institution in the nation: The Brant Hansen Show State University Tech Institute, Inc. A&M.

    In true “willy‑nilly university” fashion, Brant and Sherri are once again handing out honorary doctorates with all the pomp of a real ceremony… plus clip art.

    This week’s distinguished “graduates” include Carolyn Torrella, honored for her remarkable ability to think of the perfect comeback days after an argument, and Shelly Grindy, who earned a double doctorate for both moving half a ton of base rock in a day and locating a black cat in the dark like a superhero.

  • Brant's Take on Aesop's Fable of the Lion with the Thorn in it's Paw

    Brant's Take on Aesop's Fable of the Lion with the Thorn in it's Paw
    Apr 24 2026
    You think you remember Aesop’s fable—sweet boy, injured lion, mutual gratitude. But in this version, the lion doesn’t just remember the kindness… he comes back years later wearing a tailored suit, carrying a briefcase, and offering pro bono legal services because that thorn “really opened doors.”

    It’s the kind of peculiar twist that makes you wonder why more classic stories don’t end with surprise courtroom representation.
