This weeks episode is a candidate for podcast of the year. Racco is joined by Ottawa artist NTHN and his manager Charlean Alain. We cover some weird news stories dug up off the internet, leading off with an entire playground being stolen from a school for kids with autism in Florida (6:09). Also, co-founder of OceanGate, the company who lead the submersible mission to the Titanic last year, now believes he can safely send people to Venus (20:28). To close out the show, Olympians may be having to swim in poop water due to a protest in Paris (42:16).

This week I welcome on two very talented artists from America, Fya Man who is a writer and producer that has worked with Kanye, Jay Z, NLE Choppa and others. Along with Bella Blaq who's an MC from Georgia making waves through not just her bars but also unique marketing strategies. Today we talk about that time Fya Man pranked Kanye while working on Donda. We react to some odd stories we found on the internet, like a Chicago man who is suing 27 women from the Facebook group 'Are We Dating the Same Guy?'. Keeping on the relationships beat, we find a trend going around of women putting nicotine patches on their boyfriends so they'll be addicted to them. Also Trump supporters are now wearing Diapers in support of claims that Donald Trump wears them himself. 0:00 - Intro 0:28 - Thrift Shopping 5:33 - Sleepover with Kanye 6:46 - Pranking Kanye 8:47 - What happens at Girl Sleepovers 10:58 - Shoutout to City Fidelia & Malik Yusef 11:23 - The Music Doesn't Matter 16:31 - Genius TikTok Strategy for Artists 18:59 - Chicago Man Sues Are We Dating the Same Women Facebook Group 29:24 - Girlfriend Uses Nicotine Patches on Boyfriend to Make Him Addicted to Her 46:48 - Diapers for Trump: Real Men Wear Diapers 51:51 - Outro
