The Coffee Incident

This week’s episode gets unexpectedly cut short thanks to a full blown Rennie coffee attack. Thoughts and prayers to the chair that took the hit. It did not deserve that.

Before the caffeine chaos, we get into why overly serious people always seem so miserable, and how word inventors have been quietly setting some of us up for failure for years. Because why is lisp impossible to say if you have one, and dyslexic basically impossible to spell if you’re dyslexic? At some point that had to be intentional.

We also have a very thorough and slightly chaotic discussion trying to identify all the members of NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys, which turns out to be harder than expected when you actually have to name them instead of just vibing to the songs.

Somewhere along the way we spiral into talking about the absolute nerve kids have these days, and somehow end up discussing the existence of a Harry Potter and Teletubbies fan fiction, which was not on the agenda but absolutely deserved the airtime.

It’s chaotic, slightly educational against our will, and unfortunately ends with a very caffeinated crime scene.

If you enjoy tangents, boy band nostalgia, questioning the logic of the English language, and learning things you definitely didn’t expect to learn today, this one’s for you. Follow along so you don’t miss the next spiral
