From uncovering the "bear necessities" of safety advice gone hilariously wrong to debating whether Stephen King is a secret assassin, this episode serves up a hearty mix of logic and lunacy. Dive into tales of celebrity deaths, wild conspiracies, and the humor of debating with a lawyer who knows his punchlines as well as his legal lines. Whether you're a conspiracy buff or just need a good laugh, Seth's anecdotes promise to keep you entertained.ABOUT OUR GUESTSeth Lawrence comes from a loving family in Orem, Utah.

  • S4E8 Was Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival a Blood Sacrifice

    S4E8 Was Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival a Blood Sacrifice
    Nov 21 2024
    In this laugh-out-loud podcast episode, listeners are whisked away on a whimsical adventure through the vibrant world of music festivals and society's most amusing misunderstandings. From the legendary mud-filled Woodstock escapades to the gloriously chaotic disaster known as the Fyre Festival, the hosts hilariously dissect the cultural significance and share side-splitting tales tied to these infamous events. They dive into the peculiar customs of the Chung Chow Bun Festival in Hong Kong, where people apparently compete to see who can pile up the most buns—because who wouldn't want to be crowned the Bun King? They also explore the absurdity of celebrity conspiracy theories, poking fun at the idea that Travis Scott and Taylor Swift might actually be lizard people from outer space. The episode doesn't shy away from poking fun at the excessive use of satanic imagery in music, examining its shock factor and unraveling society's bizarre misconceptions about Satanism. Spoiler alert: The Satanic Temple is actually more about kindness and less about, well, goat sacrifices. Through a blend of humor, music history, and mind-bending discussions, this episode offers a light-hearted yet hilariously insightful look at pop culture and the quirkiest nooks of societal beliefs.Please note that Dwayne Perkins wasn’t able to join us and we asked guest Jonesy to fill in for the month.ABOUT OUR GUEST HOST Jonesy is a standup comedian and actor and has been on Gotham and Drunk History.

  • S4E7 Where did the vanishing hotel go with Jonesy

    S4E7 Where did the vanishing hotel go with Jonesy
    Oct 17 2024
    Hosts Dwayne Perkins, Koji Steven Sakai, and Cat Alvardo, along with guest Jonesy, embark on a riotous romp through the wacky world of time travel. Imagine redoing that awkward middle school dance or sneaking a peek at Cleopatra’s skincare routine! From pondering personal do-overs and witnessing history's bloopers to unraveling mysterious time slips and debating whether the Mandela Effect is just a fancy term for collective forgetfulness, this episode is a laugh-a-minute journey. You'll chuckle at the story of two couples who accidentally checked into an antiquated French hotel and thought they'd time-traveled because there were no croissants for breakfast. Plus, the hilarious idea of using time travel to corner the market on ancient Roman sandals or bet on dodo races is sure to tickle your funny bone. With humor and cheeky insights, this episode is a delightful rollercoaster through history’s greatest mysteries and blunders.
