Episode 297: Cuttlefish, Aliens, and Abandoned Alaska
This week, we literally start with a bang (thanks to a loud-ass mortar firework that nearly gave us a heart attack and forced a total restart). Once our pulses settled, we dove into the important questions. Like, why is Veterans Day a middle-of-the-week holiday? Tony genuinely thought that setup died in the 90s.
We also tackle:
The Death of Customer Service: Why retail workers look desperate, while Costco stays stubbornly, beautifully old-school.
Tony’s iPad Era: It has evolved. He is making art now. Please respect his sanity.
Fall Vibes & Facial Swelling: It finally looks like autumn, which means Tony’s allergies are flaring and Mike’s dog’s face randomly blew up as well. (Pro-tip from the vet: four Benadryl fixes everything. Yes. Four.).
The Election: A historical blue wave, and why Trump's dog-whistling is the only thing keeping what's left of MAGA together.
Spooky Science: The abandoned, beast-infested town in Alaska where the mailman still had to work, why cuttlefish are absolutely alien, and why tf spelunkers willingly wedge themselves into caves narrower than an airplane seat!
Grab a beverage, pop in your headphones, and let's get into it.
Cheers!
