Max Bennett and Lisa Vega are here to guide you through the foggy, head-throbbing misery that is New Year’s Day hangover hell. We’re diving into the most bizarre, borderline insane hangover “cures” from around the world—because if pickle juice, raw eggs, and sheep’s eyeballs can’t save you, what can?

Are these remedies legit lifesavers or just desperate stunts to distract you from your poor choices? With sharp analysis, dark humor, and zero sympathy, we serve up the most unhinged hangover cures ever attempted and rate them on a scale from “just gross” to “should be illegal.”

Note: This project explores the new creative potential unlocked by generative AI, showcasing how a single person, in just two hours, can curate (not create, but curate) a polished podcast series. I recognize the critiques around AI-generated content and the potential for digital clutter but invite you to take a listen on your next walk or drive and see what you think.
