Pizza Psychopaths, Fast Food Power Rankings, & Space Telecoms

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.

Pizza Psychopaths, Fast Food Power Rankings, & Space Telecoms

Summer is rapidly approaching, Gregg Allman is blasting, and Bree is officially questioning the psychological stability of anyone who doesn't have an opinion on pizza crust. From the massive 150% menu surge of Detroit-style industrial square pans to the actual data behind America's regional pizza wars, we break down why your food choices dictate your trustworthiness in society. Plus: a quick look at the best fast-food double cheeseburgers, and how SpaceX wants to buy T-Mobile.

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.

Of Midcentury Libraries, Spy Turtles, and a Knicks Miracle

Grab a warm mug of dark roast and let the rush of the world wash away. Today, Bree celebrates an unbelievable sports milestone before diving into the shifting legacy of corporate giving—asking why today's tech giants give us algorithms instead of the physical libraries of the past. Plus, a nostalgic dive into the bizarre food marketing of the '70s, a look at John Stamos's unexpected internet headlines, and a trip into the strange reality of deep-sea "spy turtles" and recently declassified Pentagon UFO files. Pull up a chair, adjust your headphones, and let's take it slow.

A Little Treat for Your Brain

Grab a warm drink, settle in, and give yourself permission to just be.
