This week, something has gone wrong with Meagan's brain and it's NOT a worm! It has something to do with finding an Amish dog named Kevin online, becoming hypnotized by his tiny bear face, then entering a fugue state and traveling to his location in Lancaster, PA with $850 in cash and the backing of literally dozens of listeners to purchase him. Is this an ethical way to acquire a dog? No. Was Kevin worth it? 100000%.

Then, Lindy -- a connoisseur of oceanic news -- brings an aquatic story of great significance from one of our Nation's most trustworthy journalistic sources: Instagram reels. This story has everything: an air guitar contest, one or two chill brewskis at most, a man overboard, a creature of some kind, and a stick. Lindy and Meagan ponder what they'd do under similar harrowing circumstances, then rank sticks from worst to best.
