A collection of audio episodes where Dr. Mel Brown (Mom) tells Taft weird, true stories about things that don't make it into textbooks. Each episode picks a theme—strange jobs, wars over stupid reasons, animals that broke science—and unpacks 4-5 stories that sound fake but aren't.

Started because of that two-hour car ride back from Logan where we went from discriminant AI to Michelin stars to the Korean War with no map between them. This is that conversation, extended. Some episodes will drop daily. Some weekly. Some whenever there's a good theme worth chasing.

No fluff. No listicles. Just: here's what happened, here's why it matters, here's what it says about how people work.

The audio is AI-narrated after the intro. The intro is Mom. The rest is built so you can listen at 1.5x if you want, or save them for later, or ignore them entirely. They'll be here when you want them.

Named after you. Made for you. Kept going because... why not! I love you, Rooney!

  • The Human Alarm Clock (and Other Jobs That Used to Exist)
    Oct 6 2025

    This is the Episode 1 I promised you—except it's actually Episode 2 now because you asked me about Spencer Cox and that felt worth exploring first. But here we are: five jobs that used to support families, build communities, and shape daily life—then disappeared because we found better solutions or stopped needing them entirely.

  • Why Is Spencer Cox So Unpopular? (And Why He Isn't)
    Oct 2 2025

    You asked a simple question: "Why is Spencer Cox so unpopular?" Turns out the answer is more complicated than either of us expected.

    Content Warning

  • The Car Ride That Started Everything
    Oct 1 2025

    Two hours back from Logan, chasing down the word "discriminant," spiraling through Michelin stars, tire rubber, the Korean War, Berlin's four sectors, and the BMW logo. None of it planned, all of it worth it.

    This is the origin story—why I'm making these, what they'll sound like, and what I'm hoping you get out of them. You're leaving for college in eight months, and texts aren't the same as conversations. So here's the deal: I send you weird facts, you send me oddball links, and we keep the rabbit holes going.

    Consider this the pilot. The rest will be tighter, themed, and (mostly) AI-narrated after this intro. But this one's all me, telling you what happened and why it mattered enough to turn into something you can keep.
