    Good to Goon

    We dig into the recent release of Epstein files and a searchable site that lets you read the emails and records for yourself. Also on the show: a study reframing "gooning," bizarre reports of ski jumpers allegedly injecting hyaluronic acid, listener comments, and an "Am I the A*****e" about having a different dad. Expect uncensored takes, wild stories, and shoutouts to subscribers.

    Planet of the Cows

    This episode of West of Kowhere covers a Minneapolis shooting involving federal immigration officers and a licensed gun owner, the Justice Department’s decision to reduce funding for child sex-trafficking programs, and the continued withholding of Epstein files. We also discuss lighter and stranger stories: a cow using a broom as a tool, a Chinese app that checks if users are alive, the odd case of a parolee attaching his ankle monitor to a dog, a study on music tastes and infidelity, and a listener-submitted AITA about equal chores.

    Virtual Birthday

    This episode covers ICE activity in Minneapolis and the shooting of Renée Good, the local fallout including resignations, and broader reactions. We also discuss reports that Venezuelan oil funds moved to Qatar and the Pentagon’s plan to integrate an AI chatbot into classified systems. Plus: bizarre crime stories (a woman arrested with a bag labeled "definitely not a bag full of drugs," and a physician assistant who tried to bribe police and was later found with cocaine), an "Am I the A*****e?" about cussing at a Costco line-cutter, listener comments, and the hosts' usual banter.

    Team America: World Police

    This episode of West of Knowhere digs into the week’s biggest headlines: the U.S. operation in Venezuela and questions about fentanyl and oil, state crackdowns on SNAP purchases and the food-stamp debate, and the rise of AI-generated content that makes the internet untrustworthy. Along the way the hosts riff on pop culture, controversial viral moments, a parenting 'Am I the A*****e' dilemma about choosing a daughter’s game over a funeral, and thank listeners and supporters. Expect blunt takes, dark humor, and off-the-cuff rants.
