    PGA Pro Mark Wilson + The Mom Who Put an End to New Math

    PGA Tour winner Mark Wilson goes inside Augusta National to reveal what the Masters course is REALLY like — and KB drops one of his funniest Life Coach segments yet on a disastrous $220 date gone wrong. On Day 120 of KB's unemployment journey, this Masters Week special delivers an exclusive sit-down with five-time PGA Tour champion and SiriusXM golf analyst Mark Wilson, who breaks down Augusta National's notorious greens, the elevation surprises, Magnolia Lane emotions, and whether Scottie Scheffler is truly the Tiger Woods of this era. KB kicks things off with a hilarious tribute to the lost glory of metal spikes on asphalt — a nostalgia trip every golfer over 40 will feel in their soul. Then it's National Zoo Day, which somehow leads to an absolutely brilliant bit about why you can never lose an Amish kid at the Milwaukee County Zoo. Trust us, it tracks. Then KB goes full Life Coach mode on a TikToker named Squash whose date ordered $220 surf and turf with caviar, ate exactly three bites, pushed the plate away, and then lost her mind when he asked for a box. KB's verdict? Cheap at twice the price. Back to golf — Mark Wilson debates LIV vs. PGA Tour, the rise of the TGL indoor golf league, the greatest shots in Masters history (Bubba Watson's hook gets the nod), and who he's picking to slip on the green jacket this year: Xander Schauffele. KB closes with a bombshell: he just landed his dream retirement job as a starter at Erin Hills — home of five USGA championships. Not bad for an unemployed guy.

    Did the Unabomber Predict the Future? His Manifesto vs. Modern Society

    Did a domestic terrorist accidentally predict the future? On this April Fool's Day edition of KB's Unemployed Show, KB digs into the surprising — and unsettling — accuracy of Ted Kaczynski's 1995 manifesto, Industrial Society and Its Future. Spoiler: this is not a joke. After watching Netflix's Mindhunter, KB was inspired to actually read the Unabomber's manifesto — and found himself floored by how much of it maps onto today's society. Political correctness, over-socialization, social division, government dependency, and the erosion of the family unit — Kaczynski wrote about all of it decades before it became daily headlines. KB reads key excerpts and lets you decide what to make of it. KB makes it crystal clear: he does not condone, advocate, or sympathize with anything Ted Kaczynski did. This is a discussion of ideas — not the man. Also on today's show: the Artemis II moon mission launches (and why aren't more people talking about it?), Tiger Woods steps back citing health and family, Pizza Hut Canada drops a hot dog stuffed crust that puts America to shame, and KB investigates "Meaties" — a ground beef breakfast cereal that might be the greatest April Fool's hoax ever pulled off. ⏱ Chapters & Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to the April Fool's Edition01:22 – Show Overview: Artemis Moon Launch & the Unabomber Manifesto02:45 – History of April Fool's Day: Ancient Rome to France to Scotland06:00 – Legendary April Fool's Hoaxes: Erupting Volcanoes, BBC Spaghetti & Pi Recalculation10:48 – Meaties: Ground Beef Breakfast Cereal — Genius Hoax or Real Product?15:44 – Artemis II Moon Mission Launch: First Human Spaceflight Beyond Earth's Orbit Since 197219:30 – Tiger Woods Steps Away: DWI, Pain Meds & Seeking Treatment22:43 – Pizza Hut Canada's Hot Dog Stuffed Crust: Why Didn't America Think of This?25:50 – Intro to the Unabomber Manifesto: Why KB Read It & How He Used It in Class29:10 – Reading the Manifesto: Kaczynski on Technology, Societal Disruption & Political Correctness33:34 – Feelings of Inferiority & Over-Socialization: What Kaczynski Got Right42:45 – Protests, Power, and the Drive for Hostility44:35 – Over-Socialization: Shame, Guilt & the University Culture52:00 – Government vs. Family Loyalty: KB's Two-Word Swap That Changes Everything55:00 – Scientists, the Hydrogen Bomb & Edward Teller: Are Experts Really Motivated by Humanity?57:10 – Final Thoughts: Separate the Message from the Messenger01:01:00 – Kenneth's Quote of the Day & Closing Thoughts
