    #551- Rita Gigante, Anal Artillery, and The Beef Treatment

    How do you find your own voice when you’re raised in a world built on silence? Rita Gigante is the daughter of one of the most powerful mob bosses in history, Vincent Gigante, but her life’s work is about exposure, healing, and light.  As a professional psychic medium and author, she helps people navigate the very things her upbringing tried to hide: the truth. We’re diving into the history of 'The Chin,' the reality of the Genovese legacy, and how she transformed a life of secrets into a mission of healing.  A must listen interview with Rita Gigante.   We chat it up about a man with an interesting item up his bum, we delve into the Epstein files, give some Superbowl predictions, and bring up a classic story of Hunkamania.  Have a listen!

    #550- Eddie Schwartz, Raised Lobes, and MLK Timecop

    Eddie Schwartz is the definition of a "songwriter's songwriter." While you might not recognize his face in a crowd, you have definitely screamed his lyrics at a karaoke bar, in your car, or at a stadium. As the man behind Pat Benatar’s "Hit Me with Your Best Shot," he didn't just write a song; he wrote an anthem for an entire generation.  We chat with Eddie about all things music and here some amazing stories from over 40 years in the music industry.  A great listen.   We also completely go off the rails as usual as Mike feuds with Sydney Sweeney and defends Kanye, Scott must play a game called MLK Timecop, and Mike fails to let to let the audience know what he was doing for an entire episode.  Have a listen!

    #548-Vitomir Maričić, The Compressed Air Gravity Theory, and the 2025 Verbie Awards

    How long could you survive on a single breath? For most of us, the answer is measured in seconds. For Vitomir Maričić, it’s nearly half an hour. In June 2025, Vitomir shattered the Guinness World Record for the longest voluntary breath-hold, staying submerged for a staggering 29 minutes and 3 seconds. But breath-holding is just one facet of this extreme athlete’s life. From performing 240kg squats underwater to walking over 100 meters on the pool floor in a single breath, Vitomir joins us to discuss his insanely fascinating life from freediving, to teaching, to numerous amazing athletic feats.  A fantastic interview.   We also dive in the conspiracy of earth losing gravity on August 12th, Mike debates attending an event where a douchebag with dandruff may be punched, and we celebrate the past year by choosing some of our favorite interviews in this year's Verbie Awards  have a listen!
