Brandon and Sarah look at weird - and mostly discontinued - Olympic events throughout the years. We’re talking Tug of War, Poodle Trimming, and yes, even Solo Synchronized Swimming.

Brandon and Sarah share their awe and admiration for the Englishman, Joby Pool, who stole a truck full of Cadbury Creme Eggs and almost got away with it. We just wish he’d picked a different candy. I mean, seriously. Those things are nasty.
Brandon and Sarah talk about two, count ‘em, TWO! recent stories of elderly people being erroneously declared dead by their care facilities and sent to funeral homes before the mistakes were discovered. And how the heck does a kid order $1,000 of food on Grubhub before his parents figure out the pile of takeout on their front porch is not from a charitable neighbor?!
Brandon and Sarah advise against the abuse of food service staff while marveling that the recently poisoned Taco Bell patron in Colorado is still alive after rat poison mysteriously made its way into his burrito.
And holy crap, it's our 100th episode! That's about all the celebrating we're gonna do.
Brandon and Sarah rave about Episode 1 of “The Last of Us,” the new series on HBO, adapted from one of the most awesome videogames ever. If you aren’t a fan of the game or show before you listen, we hope you will be by the end!
Brandon and Sarah have fun with some weird Reddit prompts, Brandon almost quits the podcast, and they find out that Brandon would [kind of] love Sarah even if she turned into a worm.
Brandon and Sarah mock an online article giving stupid marital advice, and provide their own [possibly flawed] advice about how to keep a relationship crème fraîche and out of divorce court.
Brandon and Sarah finish off the spoopy movie season by reviewing “IT” Chapters 1 and 2 and “It Follows.” One has clowns, one has bewbs, both have scares.
*SPOILERS!!
Brandon and Sarah watched “Hereditary,” and it was possibly the most tense experience they’ve ever had. Listen to them process, process, process, and relive the horrifying experience together.
*SPOILERS!!
Brandon and Sarah speculate whether the late, great Alan Rickman (aka Professor Snape aka Hans Gruber) would have really wanted his diaries published, and how it affects those left behind. Is it just a money grab? Will we ever know for sure?
Brandon and Sarah finish their list of weird presidents. This time, the list includes lucky carnations, inauguration speeches turned deadly, presidential fat shaming, possum eating, and unhealthy obsessions with pets, to name just a few. What an unexpectedly wild ride it’s been!
