Hour 4: The Bartender at the Police Academy | 01-09-26

Lionel invites listeners into an "underground cult" of guilty pleasures, dissecting everything from bad 1960s puppet shows to the viral lunacy of "Karens" and "sovereign citizens" getting arrested on YouTube. It is a high-energy "Ventilation Friday" session where Lionel explores the bizarre intersection of police bodycam footage, courtroom drama involving unbelievable evidence tapes, and the hypnotic world of unintentional ASMR. Whether he is debating the logic of people who claim they are "traveling" rather than "driving" or recounting his days as a prosecutor, Lionel provides a witty, cynical, and unfiltered look at the "day room" of society.
