A professional podcaster would've waited until the rain stopped before recording this episode but that is not the situation in life we are in at the moment.

Alas, I ramble about the stuff to do before leaving Florida in a couple months, lament today's beach day being ruined by the rain, take that viral Voicecel test, and wonder what that guy who won the $2B Powerball a few months ago is doing with his money now...

I took the last 3 months to build up unbridled hatred towards the world and this show is the catharsis where we let it all out together. Haterade goes all around including towards radio fans, normies, social media, zoomers, fat people, Twitch "gamer" ads and streamers, plus other stuff I'm sure I forgot about.

This one was also recorded at near 2 AM and what is now 502 days *alcohol free. That doesn't change what you can take away from some of these reflections though.

Is addiction even real and if so, how can you identify the "real" addiction?

Plus, I rant about zoomer attention spans and why they're either hyper smart or braindead insects (there's no in-between).

Also in there somewhere:

- Dealing with a springtime flea apocalypse and exterminating them all

- Reflecting on my "career path" (if you could even call it that).

- Leaning into what I'm good at (clown) vs what I want to be (real radio host)

- Who this show is even for and why I'm doing it.

I recorded this at 2 AM on Mother's Day because of the scathing shouting match I had with mine today that made me question my whole relationship with her.

In the second half (skip to it if you're not in the mood for dark Mother's Day shit), I wanted to have some fun, so I ramble a bit (analyze?) about some of the shows I'm watching like Succession, Rabbit/Hole, Ted Lasso.

Plus, why I may have changed my mind about that dumb internet reality show Fishtank where they lock stupid influencers in a house just to watch them.

Also sprinkled in there:

- How I got introduced to the side of Twitter that changed my life

- The difference between knowing something and understanding it

- A new approach to podcasting by staying anonymous for this run.
