Welcome back to another episode of The Sunday's Coming Podcast — and this is a big one. Season 5 finale. A retrospective on nearly three years of conversations. And the announcement that this is Kaleb Wilcox's final episode as co-host of the show.
For 59 episodes and five seasons, Caleb (with a C) and Kaleb (with a K) have sat across this table from over 50 guests, worked out on-air relationships without a roadmap, and beat the odds on the stat that only 13% of podcasts make it past 50 episodes. This week, they close the season the way they started it: shooting the breeze, telling stories, and making it up as they go.
They dig into the guests, moments, and behind-the-scenes stories that shaped the show — from the Bryce Vaughn "Best Bass Tone on Earth" episode (still the most-listened-to of all time) to the Liquid Death bit with Brian Taylor (most-viewed clip), to the one guest they had to pull entirely from the feed (and later brought back). Plus: which guest has been on the pod the most (surprise — it's a heart guy, not a tech guy), how the format evolved into something neither of them planned, and why in-person recording was worth every logistical headache over Zoom.
Then Kaleb shares the news — he's moving into a new professional chapter and won't be able to co-host going forward. Which means Caleb is going to continue leading the podcast with rotating co-hosts joining the table starting late September / early October.
They talk about:
🎉 Season 5 finale + the "we made it past 50" milestone
📊 The all-time numbers: 59 episodes, 50 guests, 9 solo shows, launched April 29, 2024
🎸 Bryce Vaughn: the best-performing episode of all time ("The Best Bass Tone on Earth")
💧 Liquid Death: the clip that beat every other viral moment
🎬 The one episode that never made it to air (and why Toby came back anyway)
🔥 Which senior-pastor take blew up the comment section
🧠 Mike Goldsworthy: the accidental "resident therapist" of the show
🕊 Andy Crispin, Nick Benoit, Tony — the personal favorites
🌎 The furthest a guest ever flew in (San Diego → this table)
🎤 Why in-person recording ALWAYS wins over Zoom
👋 Kaleb's farewell + what's next for the pod
🆕 "A new normal" — how Caleb's dad's phrase reframes this whole moment
🎯 What Season 6 could look like with rotating co-hosts
🎨 Caleb's daughter wants to be an entrepreneur ("I'm gonna fail, but I'm gonna learn a lot")
🎸 The unreleased album from Kaleb's old emo band "Crime Scene After Party" (later "Running With Gnomes" — you can look them up, it's tragic)
💸 The $10 sitting in a locked TuneCore account that nobody can access
This episode is for the day-one listener who's been here since Ep 1, for the guest who wondered if their conversation mattered (it did), and for anyone in ministry, business, or creative work sitting on an idea they're not sure about — because the whole show started as two guys hitting record with no roadmap and no clue where it would go.
Because Sunday's always coming — and now, more than ever, we're all in this together.
