In this latest tale from the strange-but-true world of Odd News we look at the dark side of coffee. If you've ever taken your laptop to a coffee shop to get some work done, you know the drill – by a cup, work a bit, then be on your way. But what happens when someone decides they like the vibe by the espresso machine a bit too much? We'll tell you about a peculiar new phenomenon in South Korea that has a major coffee chain scrambling to implement new rules. Find out what it takes to be a "cagongjok," and why a simple trip for a latte might turn into an all-day affair.
And to celebrate the 20th anniversary of comedy4cast, we're unlocking the vault for another classic clip. Take a trip back to August 2005 and listen in on a conversation with a noted futurist. His job? To predict the next big thing in technology. What's his brilliant, earth-shattering prediction? Did it come true? Listen now to find out the groundbreaking answers.
So, pour yourself a large one (or don't, and listen to the show instead), and check out this latest episode of comedy4cast, "It's Coffee Break Time."
