This week, we have more “fan” mail, a roaming reporter story, Jason has a list of weird federal laws, Tim breaks down the American Music Awards, Drew discusses the music acts invited to America’s 250th Birthday Celebration, and Patrick has the details on the recent Steroid Olympics. Also, an audition, and our passage from Billy Joel: “He says, Son, can you play me a memory? I'm not really sure how it goes, But it's sad, and it's sweet, and I knew it complete, When I wore a younger man's clothes…”

Settle in dearest Passengers, this is our longest episode yet. This week we have some special musical surprises, a story about being trapped inside your own mind, football recruiting scandals, a memorial to the restaurant on cemetery hill, and some weird medical diagnoses. Later, the guys discuss some fan (hate?) mail and our passage from JJ Grey: "All those simple thoughts all those peaceful dreams, Share the space with a hard worked, hard worked day, But it's the little things, the little things not expectation, That make life worth living, worth living..."

Buckle up, everyone, this one is a doozy. Jason has a list of things he finds rude, Tim gets nostalgic, Andrew has a remote report from the ball field, Drew has a PSA, and Patrick brings some airplane news. And, of course, our passage from George Harrison: " Watch out now, Take care, beware of the thoughts that linger, Winding up inside your head, The hopelessness around you, In the dead of night, Beware of sadness, It can hit you, It can hurt you, Make you sore and what is more, That is not what you are here for..."

This week, the guys put some lyrics behind their new name, talk about a rodeo-themed event that wasn't so country, get an update on aliens from the nation's pastors, and talk some more about the AI apocalypse. Also, the Secretary of War confirms the nation's newest weapon, and this weeks passage from Mark Hoppus: "The past is only the future with the lights on."

The Rotisserie Chicken Act passes the Senate, a Lego heist, Tim's review of Jurassic Park, microplastics, and more! And, our passage from Kurt Vonnegut: "As stupid and vicious as men are, this is a lovely day."

The guys talk some Birmingham area food news and animal facts. Tim starts a movie review segment (next week) and Drew debates aliens vs demons with the Vice President. And, as always, our passage from Herman Melville: "An utterly fearless man is a far more dangerous comrade than a coward."

(Fun fact: the word "comrade" is grammatically weird because it's from the French word "camarade," which was derived from the Spanish word "camarada," meaning "chamber mate." But, let's be real here... it doesn't need the E in 21st Century English.)

The guys have a substitute-Drew this week, Jason gets superstitous, we learn April 15s of the past aren't the happiest of days, and do a deep dive on Trump's new painting. And, of course, our passage from Fyodor Dostoevsky: "Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love."

This week, the guys get to the bottom of the KitKat heist of the century, hear from Victor Glover on the Artemis II mission to the moon, and VERY scientifically discuss magnetometry. Jason has a list of the things he hopes he'll be remembered for, and our passage from Thích Nhất Hạnh: “People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.”
