    Work Stress | Day Out! | 151

    Episode 151 of the Day Out Podcast breaks down another round of headlines that feel fake, chaotic, and way too real. Officials say a “small geyser” of unpleasant water is flowing into the Potomac River, but somehow the drinking supply is “totally fine.” We also talk about a new claim suggesting workplace stress might be reshaping people’s identities in unexpected ways. Things get darker overseas as workers from Bangladesh thought they were heading to Russia for jobs, only to end up on the front lines of the Ukraine conflict. Nature also makes a statement when a massive animal goes on a multi-day rampage, leaving destruction across several villages. Back in the U.S., reports surface of a Pokémon card loot box machine being installed inside the Pentagon, raising serious questions about national security priorities. Japan responds to record-breaking wildlife encounters by deploying pepper-spray-equipped drones, because apparently that’s where we are now. We also cover a Prior Lake woman arrested with a bag literally labeled “Definitely not a bag full of drugs,” proving satire is alive and well. And we wrap things up with an Olympic snowboarder getting caught doing something very much off the podium.

    Lobster Heist | Day Out! | Ep 150

    Ep. 150 – Lobster Heist, McRib Truth Bombs & Pentagon Pizza Signals This episode is pure internet meets the absurd. We dive into the most chaotic headlines and theories you didn’t know you needed: McDonald’s McRib Class Action Lawsuit People are suing McDonald’s claiming its iconic McRib sandwich doesn’t actually contain pork rib meat—despite the name and rib-shaped patty suggesting otherwise. The suit alleges the sandwich is made from a mix of restructured pork cuts like shoulder, heart, tripe, and stomach, designed to mimic ribs and mislead customers. McDonald’s denies the claims, insisting the McRib is made with 100% pork and that its labeling isn’t deceptive. People.com Then we take a hard left into the deep end: Anonymous Crypto Gambler Wins Big After Venezuelan Operation Some mystery bettor turned a huge profit on a prediction market by correctly forecasting the capture of Nicolás Maduro—raising eyebrows about timing and possible insider vibes. Pentagon Pizza Surge = Political Forecasting? We explore the theory that a spike in pizza orders near the Pentagon might have been the real early signal of the Venezuela operation—because apparently pizza delivery is more trustworthy than the evening news. Stop Sending Butt Plugs to Bahrain Yes, this is a real-ish headline. We unpack what’s going on with weird international mail drama and why someone had to say it. Toronto Sex Store & the U.S. Department of War Letters We cover bizarre correspondence between a sex shop and a U.S. agency (reported as the “Department of War” in the memo somebody definitely photocopied too hard), and how drones found a dog on a turnpike in the most random rescue tale imaginable. Germany Losing Its Freshwater Surfing Spots Climate change is hitting Europe’s weirdest hobby: freshwater surfing. Spots that once had perfect waves are fading fast. The 450M Lobster Heist And yeah, we round it out with the 450 million lobster theft story—because if you're gonna quit reality, you might as well go full seafood heist.
