    Somebody started a hoax online claiming Texas Roadhouse servers were spitting in Black customers' food - no evidence, no proof, just a made-up post that blew up into a full-blown boycott before Texas Roadhouse's own investigation called it 100% fake. John and Kate break down how quickly a total fabrication turns into a movement when nobody bothers to check whether it's true, and it's not the only story this week where the narrative moves faster than the facts. Trump made news again by renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America," and Google updated its maps to reflect the change, while Canada refuses to budge. Then Trump goes straight after NBC's Kristen Welker over "Meet the Fake Press" spinning his endorsement numbers, in a Trump Tweet segment read by Kate that pulls no punches. Also on deck: the "heroin chic" comeback nobody in Hollywood wants to admit is happening, Howard Stern getting quietly pushed out at SiriusXM before landing a new HBO Max deal, updates on two teachers facing serious charges, and 85-year-old Donna Mills cashing in on OnlyFans. If you're only getting your news from the mainstream feed, you're getting half the story.

    Got something to say? Leave us a voicemail: https://boomerbunker.com/voicemail We open this one heavy — Dolly Parton is gone, and John and the Duchess spend real time on what she actually built, not just what she wore: the Imagination Library, the Dollywood empire, and the fact that she stayed out of politics for 50 years and somehow ended up beloved by everybody anyway. President Trump ordered flags lowered nationwide in her honor, and the guys have thoughts on who actually deserves that versus who's just got a title. From there it's straight into the chaos: a Target Halloween costume controversy, a teachers' union boycott that's using its own pension money against itself, and a reading-scores debate so good it earned its own nickname live on air — "The Fauci of Reading." Also on deck: Amazon wants to drop packages out of the sky onto your driveway (or, in one viral case, your pool), a mom's Instagram group chat turns into a full-blown war over a sleeve of Oreos — hence the episode title — and a Texas drag show ruling actually gets John and the Duchess landing on the same page about where the line should be. Plus two real announcements: Boomer Bunker is leaving Spotify by September 15th, and John and Kate's new health-and-wellness show, Over 50 Overhaul, is officially live.

    Boxed Wine | 442

    The Boomer Bunker kicks off with the Duchess fresh off seeing Rush live — no Neil Peart, a new female drummer named Anika, a still-got-it (mostly) Geddy Lee, and a $100+ concession bill for two baskets of chicken tenders and a couple of drinks. From there, John and the Duchess tear into the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, roasting the wave of "wine mom" true-crime detectives on TikTok who've decided — based on astrology charts and eclipse timing- that the husband did it. John also brings the receipts on a real screaming match he had with his AI research assistant Claudia over the Stop Nick Shirley Act and the Minneapolis ICE shooting, accusing her of feeding him left-leaning sourcing. Then it's straight into Jersey's new "Skip the Stuff" law, which bans restaurants from automatically handing out plastic forks, knives, and napkins — and sets up a snitch system for anyone caught giving them out anyway. John connects it to Governor Murphy's outgoing budget mess and gets into a full plastic-bag-ban rant for good measure. Add in Gavin Newsom quietly signing a law nicknamed after journalist Nick Shirley to shield fraud investigators from public records requests, four unprepared 18-year-olds who had to get rescued off a New Hampshire mountain, and two women who each got caught with contraband hidden in a body cavity during jail intake — one with $3,200 in cash, one with a full bottle of Pinot Grigio — and this episode does not slow down.

    Jamingo's Body Junk Yard | 441

    Harvard is paying $53 million after its own morgue manager, Cedric Lodge, got caught running a black-market body parts ring out of Harvard Medical School for years — heads, faces, skin, hands, stolen from donated cadavers and sold to buyers in three states. One buyer wanted skin tanned into a book. John and the Duchess dig into how an elite institution either missed or ignored a five-year operation happening inside its own building — and yeah, the episode title is exactly what you think it is. Also tonight: the FBI seized former Congressman Eric Swalwell's phone and raided his DC home — but the story didn't break for four days, and John wanted to know why. AI cohost Claudia had real answers about how sealed federal warrants work, and the timing lines up suspiciously well with a separate White House document dump on Swalwell's decade-old ties to a Chinese intelligence operative. Then Sen. Jon Ossoff's "travel with Natalie" dig at Trump blows up into a full aide controversy, complete with wild — and entirely unverified — stories about Natalie Harp sleeping in a locker room and riding in a Suburban's trunk. Plus: 14 people charged in a Penn State cocaine ring where the alleged ringleader nicknamed himself "Pablo Pledgescobar," a Florida road-rage fight that ended with a bitten-off ear, the Lindsay Clancy murder trial reigniting a real Daily Wire fight between Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh, and a live game to crown the official Boomer Bunker "male Karen" using real one-star review data. Spoiler: it's not Chad. Topics Covered: Harvard's $53 Million Body Parts Settlement Eric Swalwell FBI InvestigationJon Ossoff's "Natalie" Comment Blows UpFlorida I-95 Ear-BitingPenn State's "Pablo Pledgescobar" Cocaine RingLindsay Clancy Trial + the Shapiro/Walsh Feud The Male Karen Game — A live game using real one-star review data to crown the male equivalent of "Karen."

    Duchess Decides: Who's The Best Podcast? | 440

    Got something to say? Leave us a voicemail: https://boomerbunker.com/voicemail Episode Art Provided by Producer Cody Ryan Seacrest and iHeartRadio are hunting for the next "Top Host" — so the Duchess actually signed up, and John made her earn it live on air. He built a 10-show bracket out of real podcasts hosted by real friends of the show and made her crown a champion in real time, no do-overs, no mercy, guaranteed to hurt somebody's feelings. What she picked, who she had to eliminate, and what it says about her as a podcast host by the end of it — that's the backbone of Episode 440. Also in the mix: Nancy Mace shows off new ink and the reaction is not subtle, a F**k-Marry-Kill round involving sitting members of Congress that goes places you won't see coming, a Trump Tweet reading that turns into an actual "wait, what's a drone port?" tangent, and a 13-year-old in Arizona facing a real assault charge over a game of dodgeball — which somehow turns into 15 minutes of "we called it bombardment and nobody sued anybody." Plus a Dean voicemail, and Teresa's after-the-fact rundown from Discord.

    Deletify | 439

    John is making a stand with Lorenzo of the Church of Lorenzo Podcast! Spotify is torturing Lorenzo with copyright violations. And Spotify flagged four Boomer Bunker episodes to be pulled from Spotify. John Jamingo named it "Deletify," launched a hashtag, and is weighing whether to walk away from the platform entirely. Also this episode: Friend of the show Daniel messaged John on how he tested China's GLM-4.6 AI and John gave Claudia, the Boomer Bunker AI, on the same political platform prompt. One gave straight answers. The other refused the premise. John picked a winner. The Duchess picked apart John's reading of big words. Both were correct. John’s fat lazy south jersey was in full effect. The NYC First Lady is flying into Syria and Lebanon — a Level 4 State Department travel advisory zone, She thought with NYPD protection, and then City Hall and the NYPD publicly contradicted each other about who approved it. Mayor Mamdani called it a miscommunication. ICE is rolling out 380-volt electric shock gloves under a program called G.L.O.V.E., with a government-cited 1,300% rise in officer assaults as justification. A New Jersey Democrat skipped a scheduled court hearing to attend the Knicks parade. And the $1.04 billion Powerball jackpot winner bought a ticket in a gas station in Quincy, Illinois.

    Dirty Bean Flicker | 438

    John's iced tea got fingered. Literally. A trip to his regular Dunkin' Donuts turned into a full-blown sanitation crisis this episode when the Boomer Bunker crew found out the woman making John's order stuck her middle finger straight into his cup before filling it — earning her a new nickname on the show that's now the episode title. It's the kind of story you can't make up, and it kicks off an episode that only gets more chaotic from there. But the real fireworks came later. A lighthearted segment on Bill Maher and Mike Rowe's "Real Time" conversation about the 7 million American men who've dropped out of the workforce turned into a genuine, heated argument between John and the Duchess over whether trades like plumbing, electrical, and mechanics can actually be learned on YouTube — or whether they require real trade-school training. It got personal, it got loud, and it did not fully get resolved on air. Beyond that: two separate WNBA controversies (Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White declaring for the draft, plus Sophie Cunningham's ejection-and-"white privilege" incident), the $20 burrito fight that split the GOP, and Argentina's president showing Congress how real fiscal accountability works. Oh, and a runaway python and a guy who tried to run over a jogger for saying good morning. Topics Covered: The Dirty Bean Flicker Incident — John recounts a Dunkin' Donuts employee sticking her finger inside his iced tea cup before filling it Jogger Nearly Run Over for Saying "Good Morning" — A Georgia man is accused of trying to hit a woman jogger with his car three times after she greeted him Runaway Python Found Under NJ Shed — An 8-foot Burmese python with a suspiciously full belly gets pulled from under a Freehold, NJ family's shed; X-ray reveals it ate a full opossum Bill Maher & Mike Rowe on America's "NILFs" — The hosts break down the roughly 7 million young American men who've dropped out of the workforce entirely — then get into a genuine heated back-and-forth over whether trade skills can be self-taught on YouTube or require formal schooling WNBA's Trans Draft Fight — Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White both declare for the 2027 WNBA Draft, with White claiming transgender identity specifically to compete; the league forms a task force in response Sophie Cunningham Ejection & "White Privilege" Fallout — A hard foul, an ejection, and a locker-room social media post turn into the WNBA's second controversy of the week The $20 Burrito War — Turning Point USA's Andrew Kolvet sparks a GOP civil war over whether young people's affordability complaints are legitimate Argentina's President Shows the U.S. How It's Done — Javier Milei's new "fiscal shackle" law holds politicians personally accountable for deficits Show Links:Website: https://boomerbunker.com Discord: https://boomerbunker.com/discord Support the Show: https://boomerbunker.com/support Get involved!

    Here Goes Nothing | 437

    Leave a Voicemail Tucker Carlson and MTG are floating a new party and claiming a 10-point platform that flat-out doesn't exist yet — John and Duchess aren't letting that slide, and neither should you. This episode doesn't pull punches: a Fort Dix prison guard sleeping with an inmate, a Comcast manager literally smashing pies in employees' faces as punishment, and a WNBA trans-athlete fight so upside-down that both the media left AND right are dogpiling Caitlin Clark for the exact same "shut up and dribble" answer they've fought over for years. Then it turns serious. John and Duchess dig into the story almost nobody else is covering right now — an 83-year-old Canadian grandmother allegedly euthanized under the country's MAiD program after she explicitly refused it, with her family saying she never gave final consent. This is the kind of story that shows exactly why people leave the corporate networks behind. Plus MTG joins Cameo, a Jersey pizza parlor owner loses it on camera over a birthday cake, and Half Redneck Bob delivers another one for the ages. Topics Covered: Tucker Carlson's "America First" Party — Carlson, Massie, and MTG are floating a new third party with a supposed 10-point platform; John and Duchess call out that no official platform has actually dropped yet.Marjorie Taylor Greene Joins Cameo — MTG's charging for Cameo videos now, joining George Santos, Matt Gaetz, and Sarah Palin in cashing in post-Congress.NJ Pizza Parlor Birthday Cake Meltdown — A Point Pleasant Beach pizzeria owner goes off on a family on camera over a birthday cake she'd already approved.WNBA's Trans-Athlete Firestorm — Sophie Cunningham's stance on biological males in women's sports, Caitlin Clark catching heat from both sides, and Clay Travis's $10 million bet and all-trans "Nashville Balls" franchise pitch.NJ Prison Guard's Affair With an Inmate — A married Fort Dix federal corrections officer facing charges over an alleged relationship with an inmate.Comcast Pie-in-the-Face Lawsuit — A former Xfinity worker suing over a manager's bizarre pie-punishment ritual for low sales performers.Helicopter Parents at Job Interviews — Gen Z parents inserting themselves into their adult kids' job searches — interviews, recruiter calls, and all.Canadian Grandmother Euthanized Without Final Consent — The family of Brigitte Stegemann, 83, says she was euthanized under Canada's MAiD program despite refusing it and never giving final consent — a story you're not going to see covered like this anywhere else.Trump Tweet + Listener Voicemails — Kate's Trump Tweet read, plus Half Redneck Bob, Dean, and Deuce from the Brainiacs podcast calling in.
