The Complete Disaster Podcast

Would you pay $500,000 for a converted shack in the middle of nowhere? Would you accept $500,000 to climb a skyscraper with no ropes or nets? If you're a normal person, you answered 'no' to both of these. And you also didn't go hoard bread for this weekend. Because that is not a normal thing to do.

Long-time listeners know who Joe is. He's been a core listener for years. He's also been going through it lately. Surgery is expensive and being barely able to walk sucks. He's got a GoFundMe, if you'd like to chip in.

Jim-bob isn't a great name. Cooter is also not a great name. And when you put them together? Tragedy. Speaking of tragedies, it's going to be -20 real temperature in a few days. Get those furnaces tuned up. Or stay warm in the glow of your own white-hot rage. That's how we do it in Minnesota.

What would you do if you saw a bunch of toddlers on a highway? There are many possibilities, and most of them are bad. Luckily there are still good people out there, as evidenced by the dad who saved a couple of kids on A1A in Florida. What they were doing there is anyone's guess.

You've heard of dying on stage. It's when a comedian doesn't do so well. You've also heard of dying off the stage. Usually it's when an actor or musician parties a bit too hard. Today we focus on the latter, because Josh has never bombed once. No, we can't prove it. But we can let his impressions speak for themselves - literally.

Cruise ships are interesting. They're floating cities. They've got plumbing and electricity, they're fully stocked with food, and you can live on them for some time. But not forever. At some point, they have to dock. And if you want to know what happens when they don't dock, they have documentaries about that sort of thing. To summarize, be thankful for your municipal hookups.

Tom and Kathryn are moving once more. In fact, they already started. Whether they'll be done by Monday is anyone's guess. It's as big of a mystery as to why people who don't need plastic surgery get it anyway.
