·40 min·3 clips
A 15-year-old requests a birthday shout-out with a fish sandwich, fart, and Coach Ted's advice for hockey tryouts.
The episode opens with listener emails, starting with a birthday request for a 15-year-old fan who wants a fish sandwich, fart, and motivational advice from Coach Ted for hockey tryouts. Another email shares a humorous first date story involving a dog sled ride under the Aurora, where dogs fling poop due to their salmon diet, ruining the romantic evening. The hosts then transition to discussing Tinder's survey on top first date cocktails, ranking drinks like old-fashioneds, whiskey sours, and margaritas, with personal anecdotes about dating etiquette. A news segment follows, covering Mike Hogg's illness, talking robot guide dogs for the visually impaired, and a fossil misidentified as an octopus. The Merriam-Webster word of the day is 'decry,' and there's a story about a man building immunity by being bitten by snakes 200 times. The hosts critique AI-generated news and its impact on journalism. Later, they list the 10 most underrated junk snack foods from Medium.com, including Walker's crisps, Quaker chewy granola bars, and Andy Capp's Hot Fries, with debates on flavors and personal preferences. The episode ends with a toast to Austin Keeter and a segment where CNN accidentally airs a memorial for Michael J. Fox, who is still alive, prompting humorous reactions.
