In This Week’s Show, episode 183, we visit Barcelona, where the dogs have no noses, to drink 11-year-old snake-face ale.
Now, grab a beer and help us test the god hypothesis — because, while Monabol (a Philippine god of weaving (Hugo Weaving?)) hasn’t struck us down yet, we are trying his patience!
Shea’s Life Lesson
This week I learned why the anti-vaxxer’s 2-year-old was crying… Midlife crisis…
Jenn’s Actual Lesson
Monabol is only one of many gods of weaving for the Ifugaos people. His father was the god of weaving textiles and his mother was a goddess of weaving baskets. Not a lot of theological imagination in parts of the Philippines.
But before we get to all that, let’s have a beer!

Hot Shots!
Aaron - Surprise, don’t take unregulated-even-in-Mexico “natural cures” for acne and cancer… especially if they’re drugs made from rattlesnake-face. Because fuck your faith in humanity, we live in a world where the CDC has a Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report… Yeah, weekly. A Texas man and a Kansas man are both suffering from a serious case of stupid after eating pills made from dehydrated, ground up, rattlesnake. Luckily one can’t easily be invenomed through consumption of snake face. Unfortunately, one can acquire uber-salmonella and shit one’s self so severely the neighbors call the CDC. For their part, the CDC has warned people that eating snake-fake is fucking stupid and you really, really shouldn’t do it.

Steve - Holy gut-bomb batman. Don Gorske of Wisconsin has the receipts to prove that over the course of 46 years, he has consumed 30,000 big macs. The 64-year-old has broken the world record by eating two of the sandwiches a day, with only a few misses. Despite his crazy diet, his cholesterol is only 140, so he’s my kind of guy. - http://bit.ly/2jMEiQk
Aaron’s Patron Hot Shot - Available now at http://patreon.com/w4w- Professional fear monger and fact ignorer Dave Grossman, America’s favorite professor of “killology,” is spending his old age spewing fear and bullshit in seminars like the NRA’s recent “Sheepdogs! The Bulletproof Mind of the Armed Citizen” which doesn’t give you an adamantium brain, but instead instructs one to bristle with guns at all times to be protected from these damn kids these days, or as he calls us the “Assassination Generation” — also one of his books, because rhyming = smart. Vying for old-man rant of the year, he explains that it’s “the sick movies and the sick TV shows and especially the sick video games around the planet that are creating sick, sick kids.” Because the only thing that stops a bad kid wi...
