Episode 101: What Do You Think of THIS Train Wreck??

             Oh, hi there, Citizen; didn’t see you there! I was just listening to the latest Whiparound episode. It’s just CHOCK full of the best, weirdest news this side of the podosphere(tm)!

Details, you say? Ok!

            Things kick off in this enhanced format with PHIL bringing some strange headlines from last week to Shaun’s attention, whereupon the boys try to see if they can parse what the heck these bizarre headers are really about.

            Next up, Shaun’s Cabinet of the Macabre flies open anew, with a macabreaversary commemorating the deadliest mass transit wreck in New York history! Get all the gory details and Phil’s choice bewildered reactions right here!

            Then it’s time for the return of SCIENCE!...It Still Matters, Dammit, and this time around the good doctor is helping scientists search for the perfect face...to slap on our future robot overlords! Take a ride into the uncanny valley with us and maybe YOU could be staring down the last vestiges of humanity’s crumbling resistance one day!

            Huh? Well of COURSE there’s a game! Real or Bullsh*t is BACK with an all-new Edition, ya’ll!

            And! In Three for the Road, nonchalant droid cops refuse to enforce the laws of mere mortals, a dopey fraudster fails to make change for a MILLION dollars, and more, always more!

            Saddle up, pardner! We’s off to rustle up some WHIPAROUND!
