What do Pokémon trading cards, porn stars, and $45 million have in common? Apparently, a lot—according to the internet.

This week, Keith Malinak dives into a viral net worth hoax, Japan’s strangest economy, and the unexpected healing power of red light therapy. Plus, Rebecca Mistereggen joins remotely fresh off maternity leave, bringing an epic scar story you’ll never un-hear.

Expect:

✅ Pokémon cards used like currency

✅ A gecko that destroyed Keith’s house

✅ Space vs. Ocean: Which is scarier?

✅ AI love stories, magnesium side effects, Monster can redesigns

✅ And a Black Mirror-level social twist that might hit too close to home

Bizarre, bold, and beyond hilarious—this Friday Happy Hour hits from every angle.
