The Mass Hysteria Podcast

Try listening to this while doing aerobics with a slice of bologna in each sneaker. A small wormhole will open to a parallel universe where the world is ruled by echidnas and communication is achieved primarily by writing messages in mashed potatoes on each other’s foreheads. Or maybe I shouldn’t have eaten that fungus.

Another podcast where political views are entered in for no apparent reason other than narcissism. A good idea for a podcast turned lame. The irony being that a podcast called Mass Hysteria is hosted by two people who engage in political mass hysteria. Pass.

My uncle Earl recommended this show to me. He was blind drunk at the time and covered in fish guts, but that’s irrelevant. He knows I only listen to shows on leatherwork, interpretive dance, or artesanal Venezuelan beaver cheese, so this was a stretch for me. I’m glad someone forced me out of my comfort zone though. These episodes have been very enlightening and have nearly cured my eczema. Just be sure to wait at least 20 after listening before you go in swimming.

When Connor was forcibly deported from Belize over 2 years ago after the much televised “Goat/Trampoline Incident” many were convinced he would spend the rest of his life in an institution. But here he is, carefully monitored by his handler Devon, who herself is barely hanging on by a thread. If you think the idea of stories of the weird and criminal told by actual weird criminals sounds compelling, then you’ve found your show.
