Welcome back fellow nutters, "I've got a good Brain Man!"
In this packed episode of the show, we explore a wide range of topics — from the philosophical to the absurd. We discuss the importance of boredom, rethinking substance abuse through the lens of public health (with a nod to Portugal’s progressive approach), and question the ethics of profiting from healthcare.
We also take a fresh jab at Swedish bureaucracy, examine troubling content from a Chinese crocodile farm making the rounds on YouTube, and reflect on the curious global rise of K-pop through Eddie’s ever-growing bemusement.
Plus: uncanny cultural similarities between Italians and the Irish, small-town funeral customs, more stories from the recent New Zealand–Australia tour, and an unexpected call-in from the one and only Donatello “Booboo Dolls” Boogenhagen, with some musical surprises thrown in for good measure.
This episode is the result of two weeks of independent effort — handcrafted, self-produced, and full of heart. No big teams. No shortcuts. No Jamie Rogan. Just raw graft and real conversation.
