For some reason, 66 episodes in, we're just not doing r/showerthoughts. But you know what, because r/showerthoughts is such a damn goldmine of beautiful brain nuggets, it also probably won't be the last time we do r/showerthoughts either. If you're an Internet novice, and unfamiliar with a shower thought, it's basically that tiny momentary epiphany that wanders into your brain when you're doing something mindless and banal like taking a shower, doing the dishes, or boiling noodles. Sometimes these thoughts are unmistakably profound. Sometimes they're funny. Sometimes they're extremely strange. Either way, they're super good for reading and discussing over a podcast. Also, the crew discovers the glorious strangeness of Hammacher Schlemmer, our new sponsor. Sorry TrueSwords, you've been temporarily bumped.
