Deadmau5 gave Coachella attendees more than they bargained for when the Canadian DJ delivered a performance that quickly went viral—not for his signature electronic beats, but for repeatedly falling over his equipment while visibly intoxicated. The 44-year-old producer (real name Joel Thomas Zimmerman) later took to social media with refreshing candor, joking that while he remembered nothing of the night, at least he "didn't have a cig," calling it a personal victory amid the chaos.

Meanwhile, Tiger King's Joe Exotic has found love in the most unexpected place—prison. The incarcerated zookeeper tied the knot with Jorge Flores Maldonado, a fellow inmate serving time for immigration issues. Complete with tuxedos and matching white boutonnieres, the ceremony marks a new chapter for Exotic, who proudly shared photos of their union online. Maldonado has already stated he's willing to follow his new husband to Mexico if they're both released, adding another twist to Exotic's already colorful life story.

The digital era continues creating disturbing new challenges as teenagers employ AI "nudify" apps to generate fake nude images of classmates. These applications, which received over 200 million visits in just six months, create realistic-looking nudes from simple headshots, causing psychological harm to victims. We also explore the strange case of a Polish woman claiming to be Madeline McCann who's now facing stalking charges for harassing the missing girl's family. Between paranormal investigators passing to the other side and disturbing true crime cases, this episode examines how technology and human behavior continue to intersect in unexpected—and sometimes troubling—ways.
