Melanie Avalon and Scott Emmens take you on a hilarious, head-scratching tour of the strangest laws still technically on the books in the United States. From pickles that must bounce in Connecticut to a bathtub-banishing donkey in Arizona, this episode is a legal labyrinth of bizarre bureaucracy and outdated oddities. Whether it’s illegal couch décor, surprise pizzas, or outlawed seaweed collecting under the moonlight, these real (and ridiculous) laws will have you laughing, gasping, and wondering how on earth some of them ever came to be. (Is your dog’s tail 46 inches long? Asking for a friend in Alaska.)
