  • From Deep-Fried Turkeys to Mustached Horses
    Dec 1 2024

    Ever felt the pressure of crafting the perfect Thanksgiving meal only to witness it transform into a comedy of culinary errors? Join us as we recount our holiday escapades, with Scott's relentless turkey updates keeping Keith awake at all hours. Keith from Toledo jumps in to share his own holiday routine, complete with pre-meal naps, and the chaos of accommodating dietary needs, like sugar-free desserts for diabetic relatives. Amidst the laughter, we recount the infamous deep-frying turkey incident and the gravy volcano that erupted more than just flavors at the dinner table.

    Did you know that sloths can hold their breath longer than dolphins? Or that koalas' fingerprints could potentially put them at the scene of a crime? Let your imagination run wild with us as we explore the quirky side of animals, from sea cucumbers’ bizarre defense tactics to horses sporting mustaches. The term "nurdle" might sound like an alien language, but it's actually a delightful word for a blob of toothpaste, and trust us, it's worth discussing!

    We round out the episode with a whirlwind of bizarre phenomena, starting with the unfortunate saga of Charles Osborne's 68-year-long hiccup marathon. We ponder the hilarity and challenges of living with such a condition, and then pivot to octopuses punching fish and the existence of beefalos. With a dash of whimsy, we engage in playful debates about invisibility, celebrity life swaps, and whether driverless cars are trustworthy. To top it all off, join us in guessing the origins of mysterious audio clips, promising laughter and surprises to keep you thoroughly entertained.

    Thank you for giving us a go, and hope you stick with us as we have some really amazing guest on and hole you have a laugh or two but no more than three.
