episode Taco Bell Crickets, Naked Car Washes & Canoe Chases artwork

Taco Bell Crickets, Naked Car Washes & Canoe Chases

This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, things somehow spiral from fast food frustration to full public humiliation. Brad breaks down the story of a man so angry at Taco Bell over his order that he returned later and released live crickets into the restaurant like he was starting the apocalypse over missing sauce packets. Then things get painfully awkward when a man accidentally rolls completely naked into a public car wash after trusting tinted windows way too much. And finally, Brad reacts to a criminal genius who tried escaping police… in a canoe. Not a speedboat. Not a jet ski. A canoe. Leading to one of the slowest and dumbest getaway attempts imaginable while police casually watched from shore. Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about Taco Bell revenge, Subaru stereotypes, men treating cars like apartments, awkward public nudity, and why no criminal should ever trust a paddle-powered escape plan. It’s another chaotic episode full of real stories that somehow sound completely made up.

episode Gender Reveals, Gators & Facebook Criminals artwork

Gender Reveals, Gators & Facebook Criminals

On this episode of This Can’t Be Real with Brad, Brad dives into three stories that somehow prove common sense is officially on life support. First, a gender reveal party turns into a full-blown wildfire after a couple uses pyrotechnics to announce their baby, leading to firefighters, helicopters, and enough chaos to make Spencer Pratt furious. Then things get even stranger when a man loses his emotional support alligator inside a hotel, forcing confused guests and terrified employees into the most stressful continental breakfast experience imaginable. And finally, Brad reacts to a criminal mastermind who steals a bicycle… only to list it on Facebook Marketplace and accidentally try selling it back to the original owner. Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about modern gender reveals, Holiday Inn survival tactics, emotional support animals getting completely out of hand, and why criminals should probably stop using Facebook Marketplace like it’s Shark Tank. It’s another episode full of unbelievable real stories, savage commentary, and the kind of chaos that makes you nervous to leave your house.

episode Funerals, Parrots & Ceiling Crashes artwork

Funerals, Parrots & Ceiling Crashes

This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, things somehow get even more chaotic as Brad reacts to a funeral turning into a full-blown family inheritance battle before grandma was even buried. Relatives are fighting over recliners, air fryers, and casserole dishes while Uncle Randy nearly throws hands in the parking lot beside the hearse. Then Brad dives into the story of a cheating husband whose own pet parrot exposed his affair by repeatedly yelling another woman’s name around the house like a feathery FBI informant. The bird becomes the ultimate snitch, turning a tropical pet into relationship-ending evidence. And finally, Brad breaks down the story of a criminal trying to hide from police in a restaurant ceiling… only to crash through the tiles into the women’s restroom like WWE’s Undertaker making an entrance nobody asked for. Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about Southern funerals, Tyler Perry movie energy, parrots living forever, raccoon-level hiding spots, and why no criminal plan should involve ceiling tiles above a toilet.

episode Lake Crashes, Cake Smashes & Lockouts artwork

Lake Crashes, Cake Smashes & Lockouts

This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, humanity once again proves we are absolutely not ready for adulthood. Brad breaks down the story of a man who trusted his GPS so much that he drove his car straight into a lake while his wife sat there questioning every life decision that led to that moment. Then things get even messier when a wedding reception turns into full-on WrestleMania after an argument escalates into flying cake, screaming relatives, and Uncle Randy apparently wearing buttercream like a crown. And finally, Brad reacts to a criminal mastermind who successfully broke into a store… only to accidentally lock himself inside and basically turn his robbery into an overnight stay next to the beef jerky aisle. Along the way, Brad rants about Apple Maps, old-school paper maps, drunk wedding uncles, Scooby-Doo villains, and why technology should never completely replace common sense. In the end, the “most bonkers” award goes to the GPS guy — because trusting a screen over literal water is next-level terrifying.

episode Half Apps and Felonies artwork

Half Apps and Felonies

This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, the world somehow gets even dumber. Brad breaks down the story of a man who missed his flight and decided the logical next step was crawling through the airport luggage conveyor system like a rejected Mission Impossible stuntman wearing Crocs. Then things somehow get worse when a guy fakes a marriage proposal at a restaurant just to avoid paying for half-apps and a burger, emotionally traumatizing an entire Chili’s staff in the process. And finally, Brad reacts to a man who walked into a police station — voluntarily — to complain that the drugs he bought weren’t good enough. Yes. He essentially treated law enforcement like customer service and wanted a refund on illegal substances. Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about Crocs, Applebee’s half-apps, bad relationship decisions, fake romance operations, and why criminals should maybe stop involving police in their customer complaints. In the end, one story earns the “most bonkers” crown: the fake proposal guy, aka the only man in history to turn emotional manipulation into a dinner coupon strategy

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
