We kick off this episode by not kicking butt at all, as technical difficulties try to take us down and one of us recovers from a week-long cold. Erin tells us about her local Oktoberfest, a story that involves parking in a farm field , a dreaded shuttle bus full of drunk people , and a confusing "cashless" system that requires you to blindly buy tickets to purchase anything. We check in on Dan's very questionable marathon training, which involves no socks , a straw hat , and a unique fueling strategy. In a case of "mom and dad are fighting" , we break down the lawsuit between Strava and Garmin over features like heat maps and segments. We also touch on the Phillies in the playoffs , a clever "tush push" fake out from the Eagles , and a potential match fixing scandal shaking up the NFL. Things get even more obscure as we uncover the high stakes world of competitive parallel parking and a cheating scandal that has rocked the World Stone Skipping Championships. Erin also recounts a trip to the tourist packed town of Jim Thorpe that ends with trespassing to see a bald eagle. We discuss the catharsis of a "scream club" in Chicago , and debate the merits of suing corporations over moldy cookies. Finally, we share a rant about misleading survivalist videos , learn the shocking singular form of "pierogi" , and end on a wholesome note with a video of an elderly woman becoming the main character at a block party.
