ep 50 – Nicotine in the Redwoods

Detective Billy Armi finds Dave Michaels hanging upside down from a redwood branch, calmly negotiating zoning laws with a pinecone — and that's before the Bigfoot subcommittee enters the conversation. What follows is less an investigation and more a caffeinated unraveling of woodland reality, complete with stimulant-induced enlightenment, vibrating primates, apologetic trees, and a dominant male Bigfoot who becomes aggressively managerial after swallowing chewing tobacco, the can, and possibly Tuesday.

This is Episode 50 at its most absurd: geometry collapses, raccoons file paperwork, coffee is weaponized mid-air, and the redwoods evaluate everyone for accreditation. If you've ever wondered what happens when nicotine, espresso, and forest hierarchy collide under foggy Santa Cruz skies — this is the completely unhinged answer.
