    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. If you’re into comedy podcasts covering current events, absurd headlines, internet culture, and news that sounds like parody but isn’t, this episode delivers.

  2. Lobster Heist | Day Out! | Ep 150

    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.

    Worst Guest Yet | Day Out! | 149

    Ep. 149 – Bull Rides, Mirror Time & Aging Like Fine AI We have Carson Larsen aka  @hdminoose2813  and he kicks off the chaos by explaining why he thought riding a bull with zero experience was a solid idea. Spoiler: it was not. We talk about getting bullied, the power of "mirror time" to reset your mental state, and how to bounce back when life’s throwing elbows. then we veer into AI, aging, and everything in between—including a few deep moments, some questionable life advice, and a lot of oversharing. Subscribe before Carson rides another bull, and drop a comment if you’ve ever had to stare yourself down in the mirror just to survive Monday.

    Dr Pepper Reserves | Day Out! | 148

    Ep. 148 – Burgers, Microplastics & The Male G-Spot Conspiracy This one is unhinged in all the right ways. We ask the question no one wants answered: Are we eating people in our hamburgers? From there, we roll straight into microplastics in your bloodstream, stimulus check nostalgia, irrational fears that live rent-free in our heads, and One Direction’s tragic fall from global domination. And yes—we also go there: finding the male G-spot (no map included), and the devastating news that Dr Pepper is losing its distribution rights. Society is officially on the brink. Subscribe before your burger fights back, and drop a comment if you think Dr Pepper deserves a second chance. Click the link below to explore more!  https://bit.ly/m/Dayout

    Gaslighting AI | Day Out! | 147

    Ep. 147 – We Interview an AI… and It Gaslit Us About Everything In this episode, we sit down with an actual AI, and things go off the rails fast. It gaslights us, redefines reality, and somehow ends up pitching both a heist movie plot and a fully developed throuple dynamic. We don’t know if we were interviewed or interrogated—but either way, we probably need therapy now.

    Halloweenies | Day Out! | 146

    Halloween Special: Mona Lisa Heists, ICE Agents & Apatow Deep Cuts This one’s spooky, sketchy, and a little too real. Our Halloween Special dives into Idaho’s “safe but suspicious” vibe, complete with hot takes on ICE agents and small-town paranoia. Then it’s on to an allegedly robbed museum that might have lost the Mona Lisa (again??), and somehow we end up doing a full Judd Apatow filmography breakdown like it’s a horror franchise. Trick or treat—this one’s got both. Subscribe before the Mona Lisa shows up on eBay, and drop a comment if “Superbad” is still in your top five.

    Hey Dudes | Day Out! | 145

    Ep. 145 – Hey Dudes, Childhood Bullies & Dog-Named Babies w/ Justin Sweat We’re joined by Justin Sweat for a wild mix of throwbacks, hot takes, and slightly too much caffeine. We kick it off with a roast of Hey Dude shoes, then unpack the trauma of childhood bullies—because nothing builds character like getting roasted in 5th grade. Then it’s on to cigars and coffee, aka adult bonding rituals with smoke and jittery vibes. And finally, we dive into the trend of naming kids like dogs—yes, there are toddlers out here named “Diesel” and “Moose,” and we’re not okay. Subscribe before someone names their newborn “Turbo,” and drop a comment with the wildest kid name you’ve ever heard.

    Cat Calls | Day Out! | 144

    This episode is peak Day Out chaos. We’re talking teachers deploying stink spray in classrooms like it’s psychological warfare, and radioactive shrimp that sound more like Marvel villains than seafood. Justin shares what it’s like being catcalled by a dude as a dude, and we dip into a little Candace Owens drama—because it wouldn’t be the internet without it. We also talk 3iatlas, the rapture that didn’t happen (again), and IShowSpeed randomly showing up in Idaho like it was part of the prophecy. And for the grand finale: a full rant on people who back into parking spots like they’re trying out for NASCAR. Subscribe before the shrimp start glowing in your freezer, and drop a comment if you've ever reverse-parked for no reason. Click the link below to explore more! https://bit.ly/m/Dayout
