    Ep 26: My Smoker Turned Into a ROCKET + Chinese Hackers in the Grid?!

    A garage-sale smoker turned into an upside-down rocket… and that's not even the craziest thing this week. 🔥 Chris and Jake are hungover from Halloween and talking grease fires, punting Santa, whether military bases could survive 90 days, Chinese hackers already inside the grid, the Brewers finally winning it all, and a 60-yard kick from a kicker who never smiles. Then it's the BS Detector game and the Ass Paddler 3000. What's the worst cooking fire YOU'VE ever started?
