In this week’s show, episode 129, we’re back from seeing our witch-doctor at ReasonCon 2017 to wrap up our curse-free journey through America’s plan B!
Now, grab a beer and help us test the god hypothesis — because, while Crock E Dile, the Wrathful Studios god of crock-o-shit headlines, hasn’t struck us down… this episode… we are trying his patience!
Shea’s Life Lesson
You shouldn’t actually drink like a fish in the south - people fry fish there, just like my brain, my brain on southern booze….
Jenn’s Actual Lesson
Did you that, somewhat surprisingly, 48% of citizens in North Carolina identify as religious? The Southern Baptist Convention is by far the biggest slice of the godly pie.

We also got another German lesson from German Dennis!
That’s a dangerous business you’ve got there Dennis, trusting Shea…
I’m glad you like each week’s cover art! We’ve used it as message space a few times in the past but it doesn’t really serve a purpose beyond its being one more place for me sneak in a laugh or something.
The artwork each week is usually inspired by some element of the show as I create it along with the show notes post-edit. It also helps us keep the archives on the site interesting with cool cover flow animation and such, which is I suppose — if anything — the real reason we started to do that. Enjoy this week’s - it’s colorful
Before we get to ReasonCon, thanks to a follow-up PSA from Candace (who happens to be a mortician):
Regarding last week’s story on ‘smoking wet’ or joints dipped in PCP, also known as ‘embalming fluid’, but not TECHNICALLY embalming fluid: “I wanted to clarify in case anyone really stupid is listening - embalming fluid should not be smoked. It’s sometimes used as a carrier to dissolve PCP in, and PCP is sometimes referred to as “embalming fluid” even when it hasn’t been mixed, but formaldehyde is a gas and will dissipate from the embalming fluid as it dries in op...
