The Complete Disaster Podcast

Nobody likes it when a child goes missing. Luckily, they're starting to do something about that, apparently. At least in Florida, anyway. Not quite as tragic as a missing child but still unpleasant is worrying about what's for dinner. Is there one meal kit to rule them all? We discuss. We also remind our audience that if you want to make a 20% commission on all cash collected by advertisers you find for our show, you should contact us, because we're hiring.

Topics:

Trafficked children do in fact exist

Operation Statewide Shield is finding missing children

Which meal kits are the best?

YouTube, and how to keep your kids away from it

You've probably heard that radio was a much wilder place back in the 80s and 90s. Pretty much every story you've heard is true. What you haven't heard is a news station that doesn't try to sway your opinion. Not unless you know Japanese, I suppose.

Topics:

Divisiveness in the news

The history of Minnesota radio

State Fair stories

Drug testing stories

Are you accustomed to luxury? You know, running water, a bed, that sort of thing? You may want to check out Dollyfest. It's sure to have all your 19th century needs met, at the very least. For those of you who are more "bag in a bucket" types, try dispersed camping. After all, what's indoor plumbing really done for anyone?

Dispersed camping

Dollyfest in Nashville and London

Why Howard Stern is down to once a week

If you've ever felt helpless, like your age is holding you back, just think of Dale "Grey Beard" Sanders, who hiked nearly 2,200 miles at the age of 91 in under a year. No, your age is not holding you back. Your genetics on the other hand might be.

Topics:

Terry's cabin at the headwaters

Grey Beard becomes the oldest person to hike the Appalachian trail

The Tilt-A-Whirl is 100 years old

Rhode Island squid spill

Alex goes dispersed camping

We couldn't find a guest for this show. At least, not until about ten minutes prior. Ephraim swooped in to save the day with very short notice. It's a good thing, too, because we had plenty to talk about. Podcasts, working with your family, south Florida, and even how ghosts and aliens fit into various religious sects all come up.

You can listen to Ephraim's podcast at https://www.cometogether-podcast.com/!

The latest victim of the grim reaper's sprint is Peter Cullen, most famously the voice of Optimus Prime and Eeyore. Will this never end? We're not sure, which is why we give advice to aging celebrities on today's show. Definitely avoid drugs and ladders, at the very least.

Topics:

Kristyn takes a Thriller class

Peter Cullen dies at 85

The age of the celebrity is coming to an end

Minibike crash in Brooklyn Park

The ubiquity of TBIs

DWTS cast spoilers

Today's show is a double header. First you get hairstyling and grooming tips, then we talk about Coyote vs. Acme for nearly a half an hour. It's a movie that apparently almost never got off the ground until some relatively unknown distribution company swooped in and bought the rights. According to Tim, it's a very good thing they did.

Topics:

Eyebrows and hair

Dogs

Coyote vs. Acme

Whether Link should talk in the upcoming Zelda movie

Andy and Alex helm the podcast today, joined on mic by Sage and Fawn. The result? Mostly news, a bit of singing, and learning about a new book series.

Topics:

Cookies made from plastic

Komatsu the cat

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed finally getting a trial 27 years later

I Survived books

Alex and Dan go see Toto

Yacht Rock

Thriller

Dick moved from Winnipeg to Edina when he was 9, graduated high school there in 1987, spent some of his young adulthood listening to Tom, then jet setted across America on multiple radio stations for a while. He now lives in New Zealand where he writes a million books. Well, 21, but that's still basically a million.

His latest book, The Facilite Con, has been reduced to 99 cents for a very limited time only - as in, probably a day or two. Check out his website, https://www.dickwybrow.com/, for more information!

Topics:

Growing up in Minnesota

The radio business

Writing books for a living

Christine started modeling at 11. 30 years later, she started a long series of aggressive treatments for breast cancer. She later noticed that so many stories about breast cancer, whether fiction or otherwise, tend to end in tragedy. Things have come a long way, and Christine herself is proof. It's time to start telling the stories of triumph.

You can find Christine's book, Walk Beside Me, as well as her other ventures at https://christinehandy.com/.
