In this episode of the Big Bad Broadcast, we dive into a variety of topics, starting with a light-hearted banter about my co-host John’s sleepy demeanor. We discuss some strange occurrences at John's house, including mysterious orbs captured on his security camera, leading to a conversation about the existence of spirits and the nature of energy, referencing Einstein's famous quote.

We then shift gears to a humorous reading from "The Onion's Book of Known Knowledge," where we explore absurd definitions and jokes, including a funny take on sunflowers and surfing. The conversation flows into our childhood memories, including collecting insects and the mischief we got into, like John's infamous bee bomb incident.

Next, we welcome our super fan, Pam Bornstein, from Florida, who shares her love for the show and her experiences living in the Sunshine State. We discuss the weather, the differences between Florida and New York, and the evolution of education and career paths in today's world, especially with the rise of AI.

As we continue, we touch on the recent passing of notable figures like Hulk Hogan and Malcolm Jamal Warner, reminiscing about their contributions to entertainment and the impact of wrestling culture. We also delve into the absurdities of current political events, particularly surrounding Trump, and the ongoing discussions about drug prices and healthcare.

Throughout the episode, we maintain a light-hearted tone, filled with laughter and camaraderie, while also addressing serious topics. We encourage our listeners to engage with us, share their thoughts, and even join us on the show. Overall, it’s a fun and engaging episode that blends humor, nostalgia, and current events, making for an entertaining listen. Thanks, The BBB.
