In this episode, we unpack the bizarre case of a man who legally registered a potato as a firearm suppressor with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. We explore how changes to the National Firearms Act registration process made this possible, what it says about regulatory boundaries, and why this seemingly absurd stunt — complete with the serial number “TATE001” — raises serious questions about how broad the definition of a silencer really is. Along the way we dive into the politics, the paperwork, and the cultural reaction to one of the strangest regulatory stories in recent memory.
