When there's no room left in hell, the dead will podcast!

What The Fuck Is Wrong With America?: Part III - Snake Oil Salesmen

Step right up and witness the magnificent medicinal miracle of Hocus Pocus Lack Of Focus' revitalising podcast! Put some ardor in your larder with our energizing, moisturizing... tantalizing, romanticizing, surprising, "her-prising," revitalizing shite talk! That's right, this week Oisin takes Dani and Justy on an investigation of that grand American tradition: lying to people.

Along the way, expect Elon Musk (naturally), Korean skincare, Sepp Blatter, nicotine pouches, and genuinely relevant Simpsons quotes. Content warning: from 32:44 to 37:35, we discuss details about the online rape academy which was in the news recently as well as the Giséle Pelicot case, in case anyone wants to skip.

Was it hypothermia? Military tests? Avalanche? Abominable snowmen? Abominable snowmen from space? Badgers? A time-travelling Dani looking for content? You’ll have to listen and find out. Expect a lot of injury descriptions (naturally, it’s a Dani episode) and mispronunciations of Russian names.
