Bad day at work episodes are some of my favourite. Sometimes you put out a brochure with a typo. Sometimes you ding the bosses car. Very rarely do you accidentally destroy a $30 million nuclear missile.

On this episode: you’ll learn the history of human violence from Paleolithic shoving to nuclear annihilation; I’ll teach you how to sneak into a top secret missile silo; and there is a disaster in this episode – but unlike most – this one uses the phrase “blown skinless”.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 11 minutes where we discussed how frighteningly close we’ve come to accidental Armageddon and the one man who saved all of humanity; why the government spends $10,000 on a hammer; you’d learn how you can buy your own nuclear missile silo; and you’d hear the story of the fastest manmade object of all time which actually predates the Sputnik launch.

As far as bad day at work episodes go, this one has it all. Bad conditions, bad hours, bad moral, leaking poisons, radiation exposure, and a never-ending, sneaking suspicion, that no matter what, you’re probably going to die at work. We’ve never had a work-related episode where if everything goes to plan, everybody dies. Everyone alive at the time spent most days waiting for what seemed like the inevitable apocalypse to come, but some how it didn’t. And by the time you’re finished this episode, you’re going to believe as I do, that us all still being here and alive is a complete fluke.


Celebrity guests include the first proto-human to have their face eaten off by a porcupine; mockery of a bad Halloween costume and former President Richard Mulhouse Nixon; the entire Ocean’s Eleven heist team except it’s only actually you, and a very quick cameo from The Little Dutch Boy, who again did nothing, because he wasn’t real.
