Two Towns Over

It only took us two months, but we are finally finishing out Black History Month deep dive into the Black Panthers. This week, we focus on the less militant side of the organization and its focus on the women of the group.

Things get a little scatological today. What started as the intro to part 2 of the Black Panthers turned into a horror story from Josh about his infected appendix. So we just decided to have an intermission and let him tell his tale. Part 3 of the Black Panthers will release next Monday.

This week, we dive back into the history of the most popular black power group, The Black Panther Party. This week we discuss the spread of the party from Oakland to the rest of the country.

We are on time this week for once. This week we begin our series on the Black Panther Party. Not the one you through for the movie, but the actual Socialist movement. This week, we look at some of the factors that led their leaders to start the movement to protect their people. Also, we discuss Josh's medical issues, which due to the power of multi episode bi-weekly recordings, we will not reveal until next week's episode.

Things get a little confusing here, so follow me. This episode was recorded yesterday as we hurriedly did a second episode so Josh could decided to go to the hospital. So when you hear us talking about next week, disregard, because next week will be two weeks as it will be part one of a new series. There will be a campfire story next week. All that to say, this week we dive back into the What if Book to see what would happen if the world stopped turning, but the atmosphere didn't. And we look at what the last artificial light would be if humans disappeared.

IT's time to return to our homeland for our yearly look at the insanity of Florida: America's Australia. From a kid's restaurant mascot being arrested in front of customers to another famous mascot being stolen and sold on Facebook Marketplace, it's crazy just how crazy Florida can be.

This week, we look at some of the greatest hoaxes ever foisted on the cryptozoology community. From the famous "Surgeon's photo" of the Loch Ness Monster to the Fiji Mermaid, we discuss how far people will go to make a buck off of other people's need to believe in something magical. We also display what it's like being a non One Piece fan when surrounded by people who love the show.

In the mid 1980's an event occurred that changed over the counter medicine forever: multiple people in the Chicago area died suddenly after taking the pain relief medication Tylenol. What investigators found would shock the world, multiple capsules filled with potassium cyanide. This event would lead to the safety protocols we have all become familiar with when buying medicine in the stores.

Due to the winter storm and a bout of COVID, we could not record. So, for one time only, we are opening the doors to bonus content. In this episode, Josh gave Rubin and Don a rather benign friendship tests of sorts. How well do Don and Rubin know Josh? Tune in to this bonus episode available to everyone for one time only.

People with coulrophobia might want to bow out this week. This week we look at the great clown invasion of 2016. A bizarre event that involved people dressing up as clowns all over the country and just... standing there.
