  • Ep 275 Rep. Cindy Ledbetter on Surviving Poverty, Psychiatry, & Fixing Politics

    Send us Fan Mail

    Meet Cindy Ledbetter: a high school dropout who overcame extreme poverty and personal tragedy to become an Indiana State Representative and a psychiatric nurse practitioner. In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, we uncover the reality of local politics, the mental health crisis, and what it actually takes to create legislative change.

    Representative Cindy Ledbetter sits down with Brian, Thomas, and Corey to share her incredible journey from living with no running water in the Allegheny Mountains to serving in the Indiana State House. She pulls back the curtain on how lobbying money dictates healthcare laws, specifically how medical associations block bills that would increase mental health access. She also breaks down the ongoing debates surrounding data centers in Southern Indiana, explaining the nuances of closed-loop water systems and infrastructure costs. Furthermore, she addresses the frustrations surrounding CenterPoint Energy and Duke Energy, explaining why local rates are so high and detailing her fight to lower utility bills through consumer choice legislation like House Bill 1276. This episode is a masterclass for anyone frustrated with the political system and wanting to understand the real-world intersection of mental health, state legislation, and community action.

    If you have ever felt like public officials are disconnected from everyday struggles, Cindy’s story is a refreshing reality check. She explains exactly why utility monopolies exist, how the medical lobby controls mental healthcare efficiency, and the undeniable power of citizen organization. By the end of this episode, you will understand exactly why your vote in local primaries is the most powerful tool you have to fight back, as only 14 percent of the public currently turns out to vote in Indiana primaries.

    Are AI robot teachers the future of education, or a massive mistake? In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, we tackle the wild backlash against an AI robot teacher in New York and dive deep into the Boonville data center controversy heating up in Indiana.

    Brian, Thomas, and Cory return for another unfiltered episode covering everything from bizarre local news to international medieval combat. The crew debates the intense pushback against proposed data centers in Boonville and Warrick County, weighing the promises of economic growth and digital infrastructure against severe noise, power, and environmental concerns. Plus, we explore the brutal world of Armored Mixed Martial Arts (AMMA), discuss controversies surrounding public health officials pleading the fifth, and examine the rising use of Flock safety cameras in our neighborhoods. Whether you are a local Indiana resident or just here for the crazy news, this episode brings the comedic grit you expect.

    As technology rapidly expands into our backyards—from Flock cameras tracking license plates to massive data centers straining local power grids—it is more important than ever to question the infrastructure being built around us.

In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, local stand-up comedians Jason Bell and Nich Bass stop by the studio to discuss taking over the Evansville comedy scene with their new venture, Comedy Underground.


    Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm  sit down with the comedy duo to talk about the gritty reality of starting in stand-up comedy. The guys share hilarious and incredibly dark stories from their pasts, exploring how trauma can become a comedian's greatest asset on stage. Jason opens up about his unconventional upbringing living in the basement of an escort service, and how he turned his family's dark history of suicide and tragic accidents into a successful stand-up routine. Nich shares the story of his first time performing at Damsel's after years of privately writing jokes in a notebook.


    The group also reacts to this week's "Death of the Week," a bizarre hammer throw accident at a Colorado track meet. Later, they complain about difficult open mic crowds and explain why they launched their new monthly show in the basement of the Clover Club. If you are interested in the mechanics of writing jokes, handling a tough room, or just want to hear the unvarnished truth about grinding in a local comedy market, this episode delivers.


    This episode provides a raw, unfiltered look into the reality of the local comedy grind.

    Send us Fan Mail

    What actually happens to the human body during a rapid decompression event? Today, we explore the grim reality of the 1983 Byford Dolphin accident, widely considered the worst diving disaster in history, before diving into some of the most bizarre news stories of the week.

    In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, Brian and Corey kick things off without Tom to deliver a brutal "Death of the Week" focused on the Byford Dolphin rapid decompression incident in the North Sea. After Tom finally arrives with a wild story about a neighborhood fireworks dispute, the crew shifts gears to discuss a bizarre lineup of weekly news. We cover the capture of a fugitive alligator named Erwin in Indiana, a record-breaking solo ocean row from California to Hawaii by a female athlete, and the strange economy of selling street trash from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding. Finally, we explore a strange balloon-walking world record and uncover the pub-argument origins of the Guinness Book of World Records.

     This episode balances dark historical facts with the absolute absurdity of modern pop culture and local news. Viewers will learn the terrifying physics behind deep-sea saturation diving accidents, while also gaining a humorous perspective on just how strange human behavior can be—from hoarding celebrity trash to setting bizarre world records.

    Send us Fan Mail

    This conversation bridges the gap between highly technical AI development and grounded, existential philosophy. It offers viewers a sobering but realistic look at how artificial intelligence is fundamentally rewiring our economy, job markets, and daily lives, while also providing a message of hope and purpose through faith and creativity.
     
     Is artificial intelligence paving the way for economic collapse, or is it the ultimate tool for human creativity? In this episode of The Days Grimm Podcast, Christopher McElhin returns to discuss building AI autonomous agents, the reality of the future of AI and the economy, and his debut book.

    Join Brian, Thomas, and Corey as they welcome back Christopher McElhin to the studio. After a year of intense research and development, Christopher and Thomas have launched Anomalous Enterprise, a suite of AI tools designed to automate business tasks and predict economic trends. The guys dive deep into the potential dangers of artificial general intelligence (AGI), the reality of inflation, and the death of the traditional American dream. To cap it off, Christopher breaks down the deeply personal journey of writing his new book, Rediscovering Imago Dei, using AI as an organizational tool to explore the intersection of physics, philosophy, and Christian theology.

  • Comedy Cache 016: Kosher Pig Hearts, Waffle House Fights & Mini Cows

    Send us Fan Mail

    Comedian Paul Bragin is back in the studio for his lucky-number-seven appearance, and the wheels come off almost immediately. This week on The Days Grimm Podcast, Brian, Thomas, and producer Corey turn a simple "deaths of the month" check-in into a no-topic-is-safe deep dive that somehow connects a horse-racing legend, a paramount principle of Jewish law, and a dictator's 1987 plan to breed cows the size of dogs. If you like your comedy podcast unscripted, unfiltered, and wildly off the rails, you found the right episode.

    From there it only escalates: the crew debates whether a pig heart transplant counts as kosher (turns out there's a real answer), digs into the melanin-peptide tanning trend and the surprising cancer research behind it, and settles into a heated greatest-director argument over Christopher Nolan's upcoming Odyssey. You'll get the real backstory of how Henry Ford "borrowed" the assembly line from Toyota, a field guide to Amish Rumspringa, and a passionate case for why Waffle House needs to come to Evansville — fights and all.

    Recorded in the Days Grimm studio in Evansville, Indiana, this episode closes with Paul's report from his longest-ever clean stand-up set, a tour through the chaos of the Evansville Watch local-news feed, and a stack of local plugs you'll actually want to hit. Grab a Four Roses (hopefully one day a sponsor), subscribe, and settle in.

  • Ep 268 Where Do Common Sayings Actually Come From?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Ever said "bite the bullet" or "the whole nine yards" and wondered where those phrases actually came from? In this episode, the guys dig into the origins of common phrases and sayings, separating the real history from the folk-etymology myths almost everyone repeats.

    This is part history lesson, part comedy chaos. The crew works through dozens of everyday idioms, busts the popular "obvious" explanations that turn out to be wrong, and then fast-forwards to the modern slang taking over in 2026. If you love language, trivia, and unfiltered conversation, this one's for you. (Heads up: explicit language throughout.)

    Along the way you'll find out why "saved by the bell" has nothing to do with being buried alive, how "caught red handed" traces back to 15th-century Scottish law, and the surprising claim that "the whole nine yards" may have been born right here in Southern Indiana. The second half shifts gears into Gen Z and Gen Alpha slang, breaking down terms like "delulu," "cooked," "beige flag," and a few that are far less printable.

     If you've got a weird phrase or saying you want the guys to dig into, drop it in the comments. Hit subscribe so you don't miss the next episode, and share this one with the friend who uses these phrases wrong every single day.
