Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime (or, you know, the week) with Phil and Shaun as they dare to bring you the most gut-wrenching, brain-boggling weird-news trip yet! The good doctor leads things off this time with a barn-burner of an item about goats gone a-LARPing! Could this role-playing style be the (wait for it!) G.O.A.T.?? Next, Shaun explains just how one scrawny kid from Brazil grew up to…repeatedly inject his muscles with sesame oil? Surely all’s well that ends well with this one…and NONE of it can end well!

BUT FIRST!

Shaun’s Cabinet of the Macabre is back, and our resident lover of all things doom and gloom heads to ancient Meso-America to regale us all with how the Aztecs rang in a new cycle of years in a bloody, fiery spectacle fusing light and dark, life and death, weird and news!

AND! In Three for the Road, somebody done brought spit to a plunger fight, a chess piece causes one heck of a commotion, a horrible case of squatter’s amnesia, and yes…more!

Fetch yourself a battered fedora and your best bullwhip; you’re off to seek fortune and glory with…the WHIPAROUND!
