Host Matt Trump returns from a break (a Fourth of July in the Arizona pines, plus a whirlwind Gart conference) with a story about his old physics-grad-school friend Jacques, a laid-back Frenchman who claimed he wouldn't visit America until "the orange dude" is gone. Matt assumed the worst, then discovered he'd read the whole thing wrong, and admits the episode title is technically a lie. What follows is a warm, rambling, genuinely funny meditation on friendship across political lines, the awkwardness of being outed as a Trump supporter to people you've known for forty years, and one very ambitious email in which Matt attempts to explain who he thinks Trump really is. Expect motorcycles, the game of Go, World Cup racial dynamics, a JFK teaser, and a closing detour into Operation Paperclip and the City of London. Charming, unhurried, and a little bit conspiratorial.

What happens in the final moments before death? For generations, people who survived near-death experiences have described the same astonishing phenomenon: a vivid, panoramic replay of their lives—complete with forgotten memories, emotional revelations, and even the feelings of the people they affected along the way. This week, The Box of Oddities explores the science behind "life flashing before your eyes," including a remarkable brain study that captured activity in a dying human brain and raised new questions about consciousness, memory, and what may happen in the seconds after the heart stops beating. Then, Kat dives into the chilling true story of John George Haigh, better known as the Acid Bath Murderer. Charming, intelligent, and utterly ruthless, Haigh believed he had discovered the perfect crime by dissolving his victims in barrels of sulfuric acid. What followed was a shocking spree of fraud, deception, murder, and one of Britain's most notorious criminal investigations. From near-death mysteries to acid-filled barrels, life reviews to serial killers, this episode wanders into some very strange territory—and we wouldn't have it any other way. #BoxOfOddities #NearDeathExperience #LifeFlashingBeforeYourEyes #Consciousness #BrainScience #JohnGeorgeHaigh #AcidBathMurderer #TrueCrimePodcast #WeirdHistory #DarkHistory #MysteriesOfDeath #StrangeButTrue Learn more about your ad choices.

Andrew Sean Greer is one of those writers who wrote a book that is so uncommonly GOOD that everything after it pales in comparison. Less--with its propulsive plot, its sneaky narrator and its incredible twist--continues to be an enormous favorite of mine. VILLA COCO might stand in the shadow of that earlier work, but so much is working well here. Especially if you're someone who starts it and feels it lag, this lecture is for you. It picks up!

Charming, intelligent and obsessed with quoting scripture, the man became known as Bible John after condemning adultery and reciting passages from the Bible to his final victim.Despite one of the biggest manhunts in Scottish history, and decades of speculation linking suspects including serial killer Peter Tobin, the case remains unsolved.

Episode Description This week on the Bit Improv Comedy Network, Billy and Gail head south — spiritually, geographically, and possibly medically — with Mike Roth of The Villages, Florida, who gives them a guided tour of America's most aggressively recreational retirement wonderland. Mike walks us through The Villages' astonishing scale, its golf cart culture, its town squares, nightly dancing, festivals, clubs, rumors, loofah lore, pickleball intensity, and the particular magic of a community where everyone has a hobby, a schedule, and apparently a transportation-based signaling system. From there, the BIT Crew takes one polite civic interview and lovingly drives it straight into a flaming roundabout of podcast-town chaos: The Villages Podcast Network, loofah codes, armed festival discourse, senior self-discovery, competitive pickleball escalation, and a Shooters vs. Pickleball championship that probably violates at least three HOA guidelines. Charming at first. Then sun-drenched. Then deeply unsupervised. Apologies The BIT Comedy Network apologizes to Mike Roth, the residents of The Villages, Florida, golf cart commuters, golf cart passengers, golf cart mechanics, anyone with a loofah attached to anything, people who know what the loofahs mean, people who insist the loofahs mean nothing, pickleball players, pickleball referees, the Shooters Club, Strawberry Festival attendees, town square dancers, low-priced alcoholic beverage vendors, coming-of-age seniors, alternative sexuality educators, upside-down pineapple enthusiasts, Central Park, trailer parks, retirement communities, HOA boards, Florida tourism officials, anyone named Lucky Luke, anyone who brought a gun to a fruit-based festival, and all listeners who thought "retirement" meant things would calm down.

I'm sharing 5 places across the country that are absolutely worth the detour. These aren't your typical Golden Circle stops. These are the kinds of places that make people say: “Wait… THIS was in Iceland?!” If you're planning a trip and want to go beyond the basics, this list is for you. Table of Contents How to Reach These Places (Car & Camper Van Tips) Látrabjarg (Westfjords) Seyðisfjörður (East Iceland) Hveradalir (Highlands) Plan Your Trip with My Iceland Map Westman Islands / Vestmannaeyjar (South Iceland) Siglufjörður (North Iceland) Sample Route Using These 5 Detours Random Fact of the Episode Icelandic Word of the Episode How to Reach These Places (And Save on Your Rental) Let's be real for a second. To visit places like these, especially the Westfjords, Highlands, and North Iceland, you'll need your own vehicle. Public transport won't get you to most of these locations, and guided tours often don't go this far off the beaten path. That's where having the right rental car or camper van makes all the difference. I personally use and recommend: Go Car Rental Iceland Go Campers I've partnered with them for years because: They have a wide variety of vehicles (from small cars to fully equipped campers) Their customer service is amazing And they make it easy to travel around Iceland confidently How to Save + Get Free Extras When you use my link:gorentals.is/allthingsiceland You'll automatically get: 7% off your rental Plus some really helpful extras Here's exactly what to do: For Go Car Rental: Click the link and enter your travel dates The 7% discount is automatically applied When you get to “Insurance & Extras” Select 4G WiFiYou'll see the price does not increase, it stays the same For Go Campers: Click the same link and choose your camper The 7% discount is automatically applied Under the “Sleeping” section Select a sleeping bag Again, the price stays the same It's one of those little things that makes a big difference when you're traveling around Iceland. 1. Látrabjarg (Westfjords) If you're craving something remote, raw, and wildly beautiful, this is it. Látrabjarg is the westernmost point of Iceland, and is known for its dramatic sea cliffs and incredible birdlife. Why Látrabjarg worth the detour: One of the best places in Iceland to see puffins up close Massive cliffs stretching for kilometers A true “edge of the world” feeling Important tips: The road can be rough, so take it slow Best visited in summer (June–mid August for puffins) Not recommended in winter, late fall or early spring. You can use a 2wd to get here but a 4×4 makes the trip easier and smoother. This is exactly the type of destination where having the right vehicle matters. 2. Seyðisfjörður (East Iceland) This town feels like stepping into a completely different side of Iceland. The drive into Seyðisfjörður alone is unforgettable. The winding road down a mountain pass into a peaceful fjord surrounded by waterfalls is incredible. What makes Seyðisfjörður special: Eclectic, artistic vibe The iconic

Tired of words in your podcast? Not enough mimes? Have we got the episode for you. Charming guest Annie Farwell joins us for our most descriptive improvised musical yet, complete with corporate clowns, mermaid minxes, objectional object work, and more. You're trapped in a box - with Charm Scene! Annie Farwell is a Chicago-based writer and performer, known for breaking in improv scenes and dancing whenever possible. She's Midwest as hell. To celebrate St. Paddy's a couple weeks ago, she drank a frozen Irish coffee before taking a stroll in 65 degree weather and had to go home due to heat exhaustion. Her family is her rock, as she's the proud auntie to three little rascals and the annoying little sister to two patient, much smarter sisters. Last year, Annie made her parents be the monologists in her self-produced improv show called Loveseat, where her parents told the story of how they met and how her mom is really good at basketball. You can catch her on Voila! The Improvised Musical (at various locations) or catch her in Marquee at the iO Theater! Cast: Lily Ludwig, Austin Packard, Annie Farwell Music Director: Sam Scheidler Drums: Chris Ditton Charm Scene is performed entirely by humans in sunny Chicago, IL.

This week on the Bit Improv Comedy Network, Billy and Gail kick things off with Mayor Joe of Farmington, Michigan, whose generosity and good humor are on full display as he shares the city's history, its Quaker roots, its famously welcoming small-town vibe, its abundance of coffee houses, and the distinctive character that makes Farmington feel like its own little world — before graciously allowing the BIT Crew to do what they do best: lovingly satirize it all. From there, things spiral beautifully into a full-on podcast-town fever dream, where civic pride, local personalities, and unchecked microphone access turn community spirit into pure comic chaos.

  The LRC (Lezak Recurring Cycle) was invented by well-known meteorologist Gary Lezak. It revolves around a proven theory that starting in early October, once the sun sets at the north pole and that area goes into darkness, a new "cycle" starts to develop. How it works:  Patterns begin to emerge each fall as the jet stream begins to move south, from its minimum in late summer.  When this happens, a pattern begins to develop from the unique temperature differences in the Artic. Anchor troughs and anchor ridges develop and shape how the jet stream flows.   Gary's Global Predictor app is a, cloud-based tool powered by Weather 20/20's LRC model that provides long-range weather forecasts up to 6 months in advance for any location worldwide. Designed for planning weddings, travel, and events, it offers daily temperature highs/lows, rain/snow probabilities, and interactive map features.

WATCH THE EPISODE HEREIn this EpisodeHighlights & “Must-Listen” Moments* 0:04 — Another chaotic start: David accidentally goes live 10 minutes early, Amy drops off before we've even begun, and Domenica Marchetti is sitting patiently waiting while the hosts sort themselves out. Welcome to live television, folks, take two.* 5:47 — Big news: SiriusXM signed us!: David announces that SiriusXM has reached out, signed a $2.1 million contract, and created an entire channel called “Culinistas” for them. Amy plays it beautifully straight — until someone notices it's April 1st. David: “Do you realize SiriusXM has no idea who we are? I bought it!” April Fools. Amy: 1, David: 1.* 9:39 — Amy's food week: Providence, Rhode Island food festival: Amy attended a celebration of Providence's dining scene — a city that, like Portland, Maine, punches way above its weight in food culture. She toured Johnson & Wales College of Culinary Arts, did a panel with food writer elyse major, and came away wanting to move there immediately.* 11:41 — This week's bread bake: the Levain: Amy's sourdough rhythm continues — this week a classic nearly-all-white sourdough with a touch of rye flour. A Levain. Beautiful and tangy.* 11:53 — Amy's Passover Seder prep: Amy is getting her brisket going and making chicken stock for matzo ball soup. Her Seder menu also includes crispy glazed sweet potatoes (mandolined, stood up like hassleback, glazed with brown sugar and butter) and roasted asparagus with Parmesan.* 13:02 — David's food week: Portuguese Flourless Almond Cake disaster: David attempted his Portuguese almond flourless cake — a recipe he hadn't made in 25 years — for Passover at Fred and Ginger's house. He forgot the butter. Alan had to drive to the gas station to buy eggs. ADHD: 1, David: 0. He went to an ADHD coach this week, however — and reports it's going well.* 15:01 — Domenica's food week: Domenica's retired husband has been doing all the cooking, which has been wonderful. Highlights: grilled swordfish steaks with asparagus and roasted red pepper, and enchiladas made with a whole rotisserie chicken — left on the counter overnight, tragically.* 17:00 — Crab cake catastrophe: The One was making crab cakes from one-year-old canned crab. The tongue-tingling was histamine poisoning. They tasted it anyway. Don't be like David.* 19:41 — Book spotlight: Pimento Cheese: The Cookbook by Rebecca Lang: David recommends this deep dive into pimento cheese from the author of Around the Southern Table — lemony goat cheese pimento, Tex-Mex pimento, pineapple pimento, and pimento cheese with chili crunch. David riffs on his own deep-fried pimento cheese balls: firmed in the freezer, rolled in panko, fried at 375°F until oozy and golden.* 22:31 — Mrs. Appleyard's Vermont kitchen: Amy goes vintage with Louise Andrews Kent, who wrote under the pen name Mrs. Appleyard — a sort of 1940s–50s Martha Stewart of northern Vermont who wrote seasonal cookbooks chronicling life in the tiny town of Crosbury Common. Charming, funny, and findable in used bookshops.* 24:52 — Food news: Copenhagen's $340 chicken prix-fixe: A restaurant called Kylling (Danish for “chicken”) invites guests to spend the first 90 minutes of their dinner interacting with the chicken that will be served. The bread basket features cardamom buns made with chicken schmaltz. Art, or a lie? David fell for for. Again, April Fools. Amy: 2, David: 1.* 26:03 — Instagram's shadow ban on non-overhead food photos (April Fools, part 2): A “leaked memo” claims Instagram will shadow ban any food not photographed from above — including soup shot from the side. Amy almost sold it. David: “It was believable. I believe everything.” April Fools. Amy: 3, David: 1.* 27:53 — Guest: Domenica Marchetti on Italian Cookies: The main event. Domenica is a prolific food writer and the author of nine acclaimed cookbooks. Her new book, Italian Cookies: Authentic Recipes and Sweet Stories from Every Region, drops April 14th. It covers the genuine, regional Italian cookies — not Italian-American cookies (no rainbow cookies, no iced anise rounds) — organized by the north, central Italy, the south, and the islands.* 29:51 — The cookie that started it all: Canestraletto di Torigna: In 2017, Domenica bit into this crumbly, flower-shaped butter cookie from Liguria (Genoa) and fell down a rabbit hole. She went to the town where it's baked, found it has a history dating to the 15th century, and discovered a town of 2,000 people with eight bakeries dedicated to this one cookie.* 31:16 — Cookie pilgrimage: from Liguria to Saronno: From there it was the amaretti di Gavi (soft almond cookies from Gavi), then Voltaggio, then Saronno — where Domenica interviewed Paolo Lazzaroni, patriarch of the Chiostro di Saronno, the family behind the famous crunchy amaretti. His grandfather purchased a medieval cloister in the early 20th century, where the family has lived and worked ever since.* 34:03 — What's in the book (and what isn't): The book is organized regionally — cookies of the north, central Italy, the south, and the islands. In the islands chapter: Sicilian cucidati (buccellati) — butter pastry filled with fig paste, nuts, and chocolate. Not included: rainbow cookies, Italian-American iced anise rounds. This is Italy, not the neighborhood bakery.* 36:21 — Deep dive on the Serpetti: From the Castelli Romani hill towns outside Rome (where the Pope summers), these S-shaped butter cookies are made by a fifth-generation family in Monteportio Catone. The baker, Paola Rosazza Battore, wouldn't share her recipe — but let Domenica watch. Through pure visual reporting, Domenica reverse-engineered it.* 44:31 — Regional cookie trends from north to south: Butter in the north. Olive oil in the south and Calabria. Lard in some regions. Honey and mostocotto (cooked grape must) in areas where sugar was once scarce. The cookies reflect the landscape, the agriculture, and the history of each place.* 56:54 — Coming back: Domenica hints that this conversation is far from over. David floats the idea of a live “Mouthful” where Domenica bakes a cookie while they talk to her. She's in.* 57:51 — Farewell to Domenica: She's a prolific food writer, author of nine acclaimed cookbooks — from handmade pasta to preserving to traditional Italian cooking — and one of the most trusted voices in regional Italian cuisine.

“Pizza Movie” locks onto a very dumb, very specific crisis and rides it for all it's worth. After one terrible drug-based decision, the night keeps getting weirder, louder, and more desperate, with pizza becoming the only objective that matters. It keeps escalating without losing the thread, which is what makes it work. For all the bodily chaos and ridiculous panic, the movie understands something real about being that age: everything feels massive, nothing is in proportion, and sometimes your friends are the only reason the whole night doesn't completely implode.Written and directed by Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney, the film follows a group of college freshmen whose night turns surreal after they take a drug that will fry their brains without pizza. What begins as a quick trip two floors down spirals into sketch-comedy chaos with a genuine coming-of-age core. Led by Gaten Matarazzo, Lulu Wilson, and Sean Giambrone, the ensemble gives the film its heart. It earned a raucous standing ovation at SXSW.When the cast and filmmakers joined “The Discourse,” the chemistry clearly was not forced. They built it by hanging out, messing around, and growing into a believable unit.

  "When you make a print, you are making an art object. You can't hang a scan on the wall." - George Tice "One of these days, I'm going to publish a book of all the pictures I did not take. It is going to be a huge hit." - René Burri In this episode, Antonio and Ward focus on printing as a way of bringing photographs off the screen and into physical form. Using their recent conversation with Gavin as a starting point, they talk about books, zines, print exchanges, and the appeal of making photographic work tangible. They also discuss paper choice, including the look and feel of thicker fine art papers, and how printing decisions affect the final presentation of an image.  The conversation moves into the practical side of selling prints. Antonio and Ward talk about questions around print fulfillment, whether to handle printing personally or use a service such as SmugMug, how much control a photographer should keep over size and presentation, and how to decide which images are right for sale. The episode centers on the process of moving from digital files to finished prints, and on the choices photographers face when they want to share or sell their work in physical form.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

From there, things spiral into a surprisingly deep dive into ice cream science, including “sleepy ice cream” designed to knock you out after a late-night binge… because self-control is officially canceled.Then comes one of the most unexpectedly wholesome moments: a pack of kidnapped dogs in China stages a full-on prison break and marches 10 miles home like a furry version of Ocean's Eleven.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that hopes you find your queerest happily ever after.  This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out and talk about why the animated fairytale, Charming, Should've Been Gay. One thing Charming does have going for it is a wildly stacked cast. We're talking Ashley Tisdale, Demi Lovato, Avril Lavigne, John Cleese and Sia all in one place. Unfortunately, even a big name cast couldn't save this film from receiving a 22% on Rotten Tomatoes. We're pretty sure the only way to save Charming from a fate worse than choking on a poison apple is to make it gay. And judging by the amount of reviews that say things like, “Does anyone else think Prince Charming is aro/ace?”, we're all on the same page.  Charming is a queer story from the jump, starting with the Prince's curse. This man is cursed to have every woman he meets fall in love with him. We're pretty sure that if you, a man, view hot women constantly throwing themselves at you as a curse, you might be at least a little bit (very) gay. Charming laments being unable to find his one true love while juggling simultaneous engagements to Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. He appears doomed to be a player, unable to find his true love amongst a sea of unlimited suitors. That is until Lenore, who is mysteriously immune to the Prince's charms, takes a page out of Mulan's book and disguises herself as a man. While the movie doesn't explain why the curse does not work on her, we think there's two simple explanations; 1. Lenore is a lesbian and/or 2. Lenore is trans/nonbinary. Since the curse is predictably heteronormative in scope, Lenore being gay and/or trans creates a loophole that we think could explain her immunity.  We know one thing for sure, Charming Should've Been Gay.

In this episode, we examine the case of Wade Wilson, the so-called “Deadpool Killer,” whose viral mugshot sparked obsession, donations, and the rise of the “Wade Wives”—while the two women he murdered were pushed aside. Through this episode, we explore the psychology behind funding a killer, the role of social media in glamorizing violence, and how true crime culture can blur the line between accountability and obsession.
