Odd Dad Out

It's International Podcast Day! I decided that to celebrate I would break format and just invite all my boys to hang out with me on the show. Let the trainwreck commence.

For most all of my post-high school life I have been said to be kind of an a**hole. To a degree it's been almost a point of pride. Now that I'm older I'm starting to wonder if it's more "kind of" and less "a**hole."

Bullshit From the News


It's all behind them: 'Butt-chugging' fraternity returns to UT | News | utdailybeacon.com
The Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity at the University of Tennessee is being reinstated after being booted from campus four years ago for the use of "wine enemas." This puts stupid douchebag fratboy antics to a new level. How dumb do you have to be to think that pouring wine into a hose in your butt is a good idea?

Kissing Chickens Can Spread Salmonella, CDC Warns | Huffington Post
For the second time the CDC has issued a warning that kissing your pet chickens can lead to salmonella poisoning. I realize that some people view chickens as pets, but to me they are food. Don't kiss your very very very raw chicken dinner. It will get you sick.

This week was Labor Day in the US. I mention it being in the US because apparently I'm actually more popular overseas than I am at home. Just kidding, I'm not popular anywhere. But anyway, it was Labor day on Monday, a day where we honor the blue collar working man by giving all the white collar guys the day off.

Car rolls into river after spider scares teen driver

An 18 year old girl in Australia watched her car roll into a river after jumping out to swat away a huntsman spider. She was only able to half apply her parking brake before jumping out and saw her car slowly roll down a boat ramp and out of reach. I may not be afraid of spiders (much) but from my understanding of the size of the huntsman, I'd probably end up crashing into the river.


Emergency response triggered at Ohio school after forty students eat one of the world's hottest peppers

A middle school student shared a batch of Bhut Jolokia peppers with his classmates causing the school to call for EMT's after they started to become sick. These were at one time considered the hottest chilies in the world. They are rated with an average heat level of over 1 million Scoville, which is, to say the least, really REALLY hot. In so many words, kids are dumb. Kids will eat anything, and peer pressure is a bitch.

What's the deal 2016!? Stop killing our legends! I know I'm not the first to say it, but this has become the year the legends died. The loss of Gene Wilder this week just pushes that point home.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last week, you've probably heard that, legendary comic actor, Gene Wilder passed away this week. Of course, when an artist of his caliber passes away, the world collectively mourns. I've mentioned before that I am a very sensitive person. I realize that here it may seem like my only emotion is angry smartass. But I really truly have feelings, all of them. Now I'm not gonna sit here and cry in my cornflakes, as the young kids say. For me, especially with comedians, I try to "remember the laughs not the loss."

After weeks of trying to get a new episode recorded, I'm finally back. School is back as well and I've got a bone to pick with the people on the road. This week's "BS From the News" has a woman with psychological issues, a woman committed to a scam, a hungry cop, and a twist ending to a great play in baseball.

This week I have a shameful confession to make. Then I take a moment to geek out about all the new superhero stuff going on. And, in BS From the News we learn why you shouldn't leave your dogs in your car and we meet a noblewoman with an interesting pest problem. Plus I give an update on building my podcast network, and I need your help.

Odd Dad Out News:
I'm starting to make moves towards building up the Odd Dad Out podcast network. Along with ODO and Mom and Dad Cuss, there's also What's Happening With the NewMan that will be part of things once it all kicks off in full.
But, since I can't leave well enough alone, I have one more show that I want to produce that I will need some input to get off the ground. I am intending to produce a podcast about ghost stories. But to do that I need stories. Whether it is your favorite campfire story, a story from your childhood, or maybe something you personally experienced, I wanna hear it. I want to share these stories, and maybe give a new group of people a little fright. If you have a spooky story that you would like to share, email it to [email protected].

It's been a year since I started making this podcast so I started looking back at how much I've grown in the past year. Then I yak about just how dumb political conventions are.

Strip Club to Donate Lap Dance Proceeds to Flood Relief

The Blue Parrot Cabaret in Morgantown, West Virginia is raising money for flood relief in southern W. VA. by donating a portion of the money from lap dances to charity. What better way is there to help those most hurt by the flood damage than to get a lap dance?

Man Leads Police on High Speed Chase Across 2 Counties Because He Was "Bored"

A man in Washington state lead police on a high speed car chase that lead authorities back and forth across 2 counties. After his arrest the man claimed he just did it because he was bored.
I don't know about you, but if I were "bored" I would think a little longer about what to do if "try to outrun a bunch of angry cops" is even an option.

I have learned that work trips are a great way to observe general human stupidity in action. Plus the 400 lb app in the room, we're talking Pokemon Go. And in "BS From the News" we'll learn probably the only thing in the way of poke-world domination, and just how bad one little typo can be.

This week I give an update on what's been going on with me for the past few weeks and share the harrowing tale of my recent family trek back across Texas. In BS From the News, I've got a story about some police trying to return somebody's bag and a very "personal" dress.

(Sorry about the digital hiccups, didn't catch it until playback)

I swear I'm not sick all the time! This week I take the show in a new direction (again) and get back to the comedy foundation this show was intended to have. To that end I have opted to seek out strange news stories to pick on and ridicule for your amusement.
Completely unintentionally, I have fallen into an animal theme this week. I've got courtroom iguanas, bears in marathons, and a killer deer. Of course none of this would be funny if somebody didn't do something dumb. Enjoy!

-X-ray catches man trying to sneak iguana into courtroom
A man in Boulder, Colorado was denied entry to a courtroom when security officials noticed an iguana on the x-ray of his bag.
-Black Bear attacks woman running marathon in New Mexico
A woman in northern New Mexico was attacked by a mother bear while running a marathon through a wildlife preserve.
-Ohio Woman 'Prisoner' in Own Home Due to Deer Attacks
A woman in Ohio has contacted local Fish and Game authorities claiming she is being held prisoner in her own home by a doe that has attacked her while walking her dogs.

Is it just me or are people slowly becoming dumber than the animals we are supposed to be superior to? Whether it is somebody attacked in a zoo exhibit or in a pond in Florida, it all amounts to ignorance and negligence on the part of the human. Animals are being animals. People are supposed to know better. They are not called wild animals for nothing. The inevitable conclusion is that we are slowly de-evolving until the animals take over and we have something akin to a "Babar" or "Planet of the Apes" situation. Or I could just be "poking the bear"
