Your hosts Gina & Gary are back with another jam-packed episode — and this week we’re asking: are these people just jerks… or full-on devils at work?

We kick things off with wild headlines: radioactive Walmart shrimp 🍤☢️, zombie squirrels and rabbits 🐿️🧟, and Merriam-Webster officially adding “skibidi” to the dictionary 🤯📖. Plus Rare Beauty’s scratch-and-sniff billboards 👃✨, Marc Maron calling out the bro-pod comedy scene 🎤🔥, and why ghost culture 👻 is thriving just in time for spooky season.

Then it’s time for our devilish workplace tales:

😈 Stories this week include:

• The office jokester who just won’t quit with nicknames 🙄😂

• A nervous grad sneaking absinthe before a job interview 🍾😳

• A “helpful” coworker who fat-shames a colleague 🚫🥴

• A vet tech meltdown over dog poop duty 🐕💩

• And one employee who simply can’t handle a Transformers superfan 🤖

  
  

✨ Distractions of the week: Pokémon card grading 🎴, updating résumés 💼, and family visits...

🔥 Buckle up — we’ve got laughs, rants, and plenty of side-eye as we decide who’s an a-hole… and who’s truly the devil.
