Another FUN episode! This week we delve into various conspiracy theories surrounding Katy Perry's trip to space on a Blue Origin rocket. The hosts, despite their initial skepticism, explore the event with a blend of seriousness and humor.

They discuss the potential motivations behind Katy Perry's space travel, suggesting it could be a strategic move for Jeff Bezos to improve his public image and portray himself as a feminist for sending women to space. One prominent theory revolves around the idea that the flight was staged, citing the alleged lack of re-entry burn marks on the rocket and supposed inconsistencies in promotional photos. Some even suggest that the astronauts were mannequins.

The hosts also touch upon the controversy surrounding a previous space mission where astronauts were temporarily stranded, highlighting a supposed "tremendous blow" to the scientific community. Their most outlandish theory is that Katy Perry's trip was orchestrated to distract from a perceived "woefully ugly" female astronaut from that previous mission, preventing the public from associating space with unattractiveness.

Other tangents include discussions about Jeff Bezos' alleged evil nature and his supposed construction of a massive clock, the varying perceptions of Africa and its custom license plates, and a bizarre incident involving a school student with a clock that was mistaken for a bomb. They also touch on the casting choices in James Bond films and the portrayal of Black characters in media.

Towards the end, the hosts pivot to Katy Perry's specific contribution to the space trip: a quote about bringing "glam" to space and putting the "ass" in astronaut. This leads to a humorous discussion about her persona and a surprising revelation about a cheap Katy Perry doll being released after the trip.

The episode concludes with a lighthearted look at random facts and a brief discussion about the absurdity of the various conspiracy theories. The hosts encourage listeners to engage with them on social media and promise future episodes filled with equally insightful and humorous content.

IT SA GOOD EP! Enjoy!
