In Episode 194 of Brutal, Bizarre, and Boozy, we cover the Budd Dwyer press conference, one of the most shocking moments ever aired on live television, and the Counterclockwise Experiment, a controversial study on aging and mindset. Deklan dives into the 1987 case of Pennsylvania treasurer Budd Dwyer, while Jane explores psychologist Ellen Langer’s groundbreaking research on whether perception can influence physical aging.

We also drink the Senator Jack cocktail.
