    Big Corn

    Have you ever tried running a podcast without a producer? It's like juggling flaming swords while riding a unicycle! Join us as we embark on this chaotic journey, blending humor with critical insights about the American dream and political aspirations. We spin a satirical web involving conspiracy theories, political funding, and exaggerated ties with Russia and QAnon, all while sidestepping clichés. Our conversation takes a serious turn as we tackle the geopolitical tensions between the US and Russia, with a particular focus on military support to Ukraine. We balance humor with depth, inviting you to laugh while thinking critically about the world. Our chat then takes a detour into the sometimes precarious world of digestive health—think of it as a candid bathroom confessional. Sharing personal anecdotes about Crohn's disease and IBS, we question the reliability of modern medicine while pondering if environmental factors are the true culprits behind our ailments. With a blend of humor and skepticism, we explore the absurdity of medical diagnoses and the role of pharmaceutical companies. This light-hearted examination of health theories is sure to resonate with anyone who's ever faced the unpredictability of their own body and questioned widely accepted health facts. As we round out our episode, we tackle a delightful mix of everyday mishaps, comedy, and cultural observations. From tech glitches causing personal photo tragedies to humorous critiques of "big corn" infiltrating our products, we highlight the absurdities of modern life. We also reflect on cultural experiences through stories of military potlucks and holiday traditions, debunking stereotypes with laughter and insight. Tune in for a thought-provoking and entertaining episode that underscores the importance of humor and curiosity in understanding the complexities of the world around us.

We start with laughs over mythical creatures and our own controversial conversations but soon find ourselves deep in raw honesty. Josh shares the emotional turmoil of losing his father while wrestling with their complicated relationship. Parenthood isn't left out either, as we recount the hilarity and frustration of Josh’s son missing his first college class. Get ready for bizarre encounters and misadventures galore! From an unexpected bat infestation that led to hiring an eccentric removal expert, to the wild times running the Whitson Comedy Lounge, it’s a mix of chaos and joy. Hear about Dan’s wedding, featuring a near medical emergency and wardrobe controversies that add a flavor of unpredictability. We tackle the ever-relevant topic of a healthier lifestyle, discussing the pitfalls of stress-induced eating habits and the moral dilemmas of our dietary choices—all laced with humor and candid anecdotes. Finally, we broaden our scope with fascinating discussions on historical dietary habits, the health hazards of microplastics, and the unsettling rise in cancer among men. Reflecting on the Aurora shooting brings out our aversion to crowded spaces and certain movies, but we lighten up with Sarah Watson’s expert take on horror films. The episode wraps up with some sage advice on comedy club etiquette, the ethics of tipping, and the importance of genuine connections, all while savoring a unique gin-based cocktail. Dive in for a blend of humor, honesty, and camaraderie that promises to entertain from start to finish.
