Description

Grab your coffee and a piece of chocolate, because host Bree is taking you on a wild ride through the delightfully absurd corners of history, tech, and the internet. In today’s episode, we kick things off with a brief, beautiful musical intermission featuring Sjowgren’s "Cool Over Kind" before diving headfirst into the great late-night debate. Is David Letterman truly the GOAT, or does Johnny Carson still hold the crown? Bree breaks down the subjective nature of late-night comedy and reminisces about the golden era of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (circa 2000). Then, it's time for your Weekly Dose of Historical Delirium, featuring a 19th-century British village that went to war with a flock of tax-evading storks. Plus, Bree tackles the ultimate waking nightmare: being forced to retake AP Chemistry in your late 30s. To wrap things up, we look at the chaos of the modern world—from the lawless wasteland of Facebook Marketplace (who is buying slightly used pizza?!), to a Swedish coffee shop AI that blew its entire budget on thousands of tomatoes, to the tech billionaires trying to sell us on a bleak, dystopian future of drinking recycled sweat on Mars. It’s a chaotic world, but at least we have an atmosphere. Tune in!

Capt. Lou Albano Commercials & the Star Trek Holodeck

On this Sunday, June 21st episode, Bree is hanging out and diving into a little bit of everything. We start with a nostalgic trip down memory lane to Mahopac, NY, tracking down hilarious vintage commercials and hotlines from hometown wrestling legend Captain Lou Albano. Then, we've got a fresh music recommendation with the track "Good2B" by Norwalk's own jam band, Goose, before diving into the latest pop culture and tech headlines. We're talking about Rosie O’Donnell stepping up to guest-host Jimmy Kimmel Live, a Bavarian startup trying to make sustainable "chocolate" out of sunflower seeds (but can it really beat real cacao?), and a mind-blowing holographic breakthrough from UCLA that is bringing us one step closer to a real-life Star Trek Holodeck. Pull up a chair and kick off the summer with us!

Cat Filters, Ham Radio, and the Wildest Marathon in History

It turns out the internet didn't invent weirdos—it just gave them a screen. This week, we dive headfirst into the delightfully bizarre subculture of late-night ham radio operators, where the airwaves of the 75-Meter Band feel like an unmoderated 1970s Reddit forum broadcasted out of a garage. We also break down a DIY audio disaster involving cat water fountain filters, trace the unexpected wartime roots of Electro-Voice microphones, and recap the legendary chaos of the 1904 Olympic Marathon (featuring stray dogs, rotten apples, and literal rat poison). Plus, we close with a sober look at the current headlines, tracking Ukraine's massive drone strikes on Moscow's energy infrastructure and the brutal realities of Russian intelligence tactics.

Cockatoos, Groceries, & Uncle Jesse

Grab your favorite beverage, adjust your blanket situation (unless you're driving, please don't), and get ready to be non-aggressively pampered. Today, Bree breaks down her latest grocery haul—including a highly anticipated $6 bar of Tony's Chocolonely—and dissects why her Discord friend thinks she has "smart cockatoo meets loyal black lab" energy. Plus, we check in on the John Stamos takeover of her newsfeed, review the premiere of 100 Cooks, and ask the ultimate question: Has the Dubai Chocolate trend gone too far now that Pepsi has turned it into a soda? We wrap it all up with a nostalgic trip down memory lane looking at the bizarre sweet snacks of the 1970s and the childhood treats that were quietly banned. Drink some water, pet a cat, and stay cozy.
