Thursday Night Football / Dan Campbell tangent — Riff on Amazon Prime's now-exclusive Thursday Night Football broadcasts and Lions coach Dan Campbell cursing on a live sideline mic with no real backlash. Hyrox athlete apology controversy — Follow-up on a Hyrox athlete (referred to as "Joanna") who initially posted a smug "win's a win" message after a controversial finish, then issued a full apology and relinquished her title/ranking points after losing her Puma sponsorship; hosts debate the timing and sincerity of the apology. Comedy/fame tangent — Riff on the burdens of being unusually tall or funny, the difficulty of making a living in comedy or pro sports, and a shoutout to comedian David Jolly's grind, distinguished from the unrelated politician of the same name appearing in local ads.

Reality TV deep dive: Superstar USA and "The Contestant" — Recap of the 2004 WB show Superstar USA (a reverse American Idol mocking bad singers, including a contestant compared to William Hung), and a much darker Japanese hidden-camera show (subject later identified as Nasubi/Tomoaki Hamatsu) that secretly broadcast a man's year-plus isolation to millions, an inspiration for The Truman Show; mention of the 2024 Hulu documentary The Contestant covering it.

The hosts are skeptical of TMZ as a source but debate why the government might suppress or promote such a story, and how the "never comply, fight back" mindset changed after Flight 93. Deathbed confessions tangent: A joking detour into fake and real deathbed confessions, including a supposed Bigfoot hoaxer, D.B. Cooper impersonators, and a man who claimed on his deathbed to have been Billy the Kid, with details that reportedly lined up. Rick Springfield on Joe Rogan: Discussion of Rick Springfield's recent Rogan appearance, where at 77 he still looks noticeably fit, and his story about performing for troops in Vietnam as a teenager, being invited to fire mortar rounds during an attack, and later learning one may have killed an enemy soldier — a memory he says has haunted him since. T&D history — first celebrity interviews: Dan and Tom recall that Rick Springfield was their first-ever celebrity phone interview back in 2009 (booked under an assumed name to keep it separate from their radio day jobs), followed shortly by Willie Aames ("Bibleman"). They play a clip of that original interview in which Springfield discusses having dated a 15-year-old Linda Blair when he was 25, a topic he has apparently repeated in interviews since, including reportedly telling CNN the same story a year after telling them. Voicemail — Sheetz vs. gas station food: A voicemail (referencing Ross's earlier trip to Pennsylvania) praises Sheetz's fried food menu — mini corn dogs, loaded potato bites, fried mac and cheese, Cinnabon pockets — sparking a tangent about whether corn dogs are already fried before baking, and a detour into Bojangles' potato rounds and onions. Wawa vs. 7-Eleven: A running debate over which convenience store chain is better, including Dan's story about a confrontational man outside his local Wawa, complaints about removed seating areas and homeless encampments, and a friendly dispute over food and service quality between the chains.

Caller — gas station culture: A caller (a lawn care/pest control worker) discusses favorite gas-station food chains, including Parker's Kitchen, his late father's love of the discontinued Golden Skillet and Hardee's fried chicken, the old Mr. Donut vs. Dunkin' Donuts rivalry, and Bojangles' spicy Cajun filet biscuit. Old-school gas station nostalgia: Dan and Ross reminisce about classic gas stations with bulletproof clerk booths, oddball inventory (cat litter, dog bones), overnight customers doing full grocery runs, Uber Eats "pickers," and pre-GPS customers stopping in to read paper maps. Caller — Debary Joe, Bojangles order: A recurring caller ("Debary Joe") calls in live to have Dan and Ross help him build his ideal Bojangles Uber Eats order (sausage Bo-Berry biscuit, spicy Cajun filet, potato rounds, Texas Pete), which Dan compares to his daughter Maisie's go-to order. Domino's deal talk: A brief exchange about a cheap Domino's delivery promotion and the "Brookie" dessert used to hit delivery minimums. Guest Collette Fehr — Aaron Rodgers/Shailene Woodley: Collette Fehr (co-host of the Love Thy Neighbor podcast) joins to discuss Aaron Rodgers' comments on a podcast about ex-partner Shailene Woodley, in which he claimed she wanted to be with someone else before their planned wedding, and separate comments about ex Danica Patrick. The group discusses the ethics of public figures discussing past relationships negatively, with Collette (a couples therapist) noting how people who consistently blame exes are usually part of the pattern themselves. "Sowing wild oats" discussion: Building off the Rodgers story, the group debates the value of dating multiple people before marriage, with Collette offering a therapist's perspective that lacking that experience is rarely what actually damages long-term relationships. Lightning strike death: A somber turn to the story of a Michigan college student interning at Walt Disney World who was struck by lightning and killed while jogging in Orlando, with Dan and Tom recalling their own recent close encounter with a lightning strike near Lake Baldwin. Trump midterm convention remarks: The hosts read and react to comments President Trump made at a Republican midterm convention in Dallas, including having the crowd raise their hands in a pledge and remarks about voting and cheating. Koi fish story from Thailand: A news story about a man in Thailand caught on video engaging in sexual contact with a neighbor's koi fish, with a prior history involving other animals, leads to a debate over relative cruelty to animals (fishing, catch-and-release) versus this incident. Raccoon and crow stories: Dan describes an ongoing nightly raccoon problem at his house (including raccoons climbing a ladder to his roof) and reveals his wife has secretly been feeding a pair of mangy neighborhood crows. Harvard morgue body-parts scandal: Closing story about Harvard's $53 million settlement over a former morgue manager who sold stolen body parts (donated for medical research) to collectors and oddity shops, leading into a tangent about the ethics of "Body Worlds"-style cadaver exhibits.

Expired-tag traffic stop story — Savannah recounts being pulled over driving from Gatorland for an expired vehicle registration, getting warned a repeat stop could mean jail, and paying a $114 ticket.

Australia trip recap: Northern Territory and viral songs — Savannah describes her month-long stay near Darwin with her friend Catherine's teenage kids, then plays two viral local songs ("Pink Blush" and a track by Young Miami), sparking a debate about fast-fashion brands like Shein versus the designer-brand references in older rap. Remembering Dolly Parton — The group discusses Dolly Parton's recent death, with Savannah recalling the outpouring of sympathy she got from Australians while traveling, a bit about post office flags at half-staff, and a running joke about Dan dressing as Dolly for Halloween. Filming crocodile feedings — Savannah describes filming pig-meat crocodile feedings for content and a near-miss when a crocodile bumped her GoPro rig underwater. The crocodile-poop diamond ring — Savannah tells the story of pulling a tarnished diamond ring out of crocodile droppings while cleaning park drains, brings it into the studio, and the group speculates on how it got there (a lost tourist's ring, a ring embedded in pig meat, or something a "nuisance" crocodile swallowed years earlier) and whether she'd return it if she ever traced it to a victim's family. Wombat and wallaby encounters — Savannah describes her daily play sessions (and occasional bites) with a wombat named Rocket and a standoffish wallaroo named King George at the park. Tease for jet lag / NFL Australia segment — Brief tease before the break about discussing jet lag and the NFL game being played in Australia the following week. AI-assisted ring analysis — Back from break, Dan reveals he ran a description of the ring through Claude, which suggested a sterling-silver band with an oval clear stone in a style common from the 1920s–1960s and recommended a jeweler test for a maker's mark; the hosts jokingly dangle a free cruise spot for whoever can positively identify the ring. The mystery poop bag / Seth Petruzzelli reveal — Callback to a bit about a dog-poop bag left outside the studio all week; caller Brandon had correctly guessed it belonged to former guest Seth Petruzzelli, confirmed via a group text from Seth (on a cruise). Brandon is rewarded with a Tom & Dan merchandise prize pack. Jet lag mechanics and NFL Australia games — Savannah explains why the trip home from Australia hits harder than the trip there, recounting driving on the wrong side of the road and getting lost the morning after landing. This leads into discussion of the 49ers vs. Rams Week 1 game in Australia and whose travel plan (acclimating a week early vs. arriving 24 hours out) will backfire. Wheel of Fortune announcer scandal — The hosts discuss announcer Jim Thornton's firing after being seen on a flight accessing an online support community for people with pedophilic thoughts, debating intent and why the network cut ties regardless. Plane screen-privacy and targeted-ad tangent — A bit about people snooping on neighbors' phone/laptop screens on flights, Dan's admission to browsing a friend-of-the-show burlesque performer's photos mid-flight, and a riff on social media ads seeming to "listen in" on conversations. Otter attack news story — A news item about a woman injured by an otter while open-water swimming leads to a tangent celebrating unstoppable elderly athletes (swimmers, runners, pickleball players). "Last Stop Laramie" documentary recommendation — Savannah recommends an HBO Max true-crime documentary about an unsolved murder in a tiny Northern Territory town, calling it "homework" for listeners; also mentions the 20th anniversary of Steve Irwin's death and shares Australian "strawberry cloud" candy with the hosts. Burning Man riff ("bring the vinegar") — An extended bit about Burning Man culture: having to rinse off alkaline playa dust with vinegar (the episode's namesake joke), gripes about big festival crowds and sound quality, trash left behind at the event, and a running gag about starting a mini parody version called "Burning Dan." Shoes and celebrity memorabilia tangent — A bit about favorite oversized New Balance "Willie Nelson" sneakers (with a mention of Willie Nelson's own shoes on display in Nashville), followed by talk of friends' celebrity memorabilia — a Dolly Parton outfit, Betty White's door, a talking Satchmo doll, and an animatronic singing Alan Jackson Santa. Social media algorithm suppression and Instagram "breakup" — Savannah explains how Instagram throttles her reach unless she posts risky "running from crocodiles" content, even losing followers off a 1.5-million-view viral video, and describes going on a content blackout and writing the platform a "Dear John" video letter. The group connects this to algorithms rewarding negativity and the growing uncertainty over AI-generated content online. Voicemail: TikTok algorithm burnout — A listener voicemail says the TikTok algorithm has gotten worse and they've switched to rewatching old shows (Vice Principals, The Righteous Gemstones); the hosts riff on preferring classic sitcoms (The Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, Good Times, Golden Girls) over TikTok and note wanting to watch "Monsters of God," a documentary Savannah says she knows people featured in. Show close — Sign-off wishing listeners a safe Labor Day weekend, a reminder the show is off Monday and returns Tuesday with the BDM show, an apology for canceling Thursday's show due to Dan's emergency root canal, and a closing plug for the 2027 "Seaz Nuts" Tom and Dan Cruise, noting strong early sign-ups.

Seth's MRI/health update — Seth shares that he got a full-body MRI, compared it to one from two years prior, and got mostly good results except his prostate being "large side of normal."

Should Seth do a GoFundMe? — Debate over whether it's in good taste for a business to crowdfund when forced out by demolition, referencing a nearby business owner doing the same; jokes about a bikini car wash and a "GoFundMe vs. crowdfund" distinction (charity vs. general fundraising). The actual dojo car wash fundraiser — Dan recounts attending a real car-wash fundraiser for the dojo, paying more than requested because the kids did a thorough job. Daughter's Taco Bell complaint — Dan tells a story about his daughter filing an online complaint after Taco Bell repeatedly forgot part of her order.

Dojo move logistics and mock fundraiser pitch — More detail on moving costs (a mirror company hired just to transport dojo mirrors, a dumpster for old equipment); the group jokingly pitches an absurd "buy a black belt" crowdfunding tier system, with Seth explaining the real distinction between an official ranked black belt and a "junior/in-house" one. AI in podcast production — The show discusses no longer paying a human for intro songs/jingles, now using AI for notes and occasionally songs (though they still do some manual ones too), and debate the line between AI convenience and "authenticity" compared to corporate radio. Prostitution sting debate — Sparked by 49ers owner Jed York's prostitution-sting arrest and a local Altamonte Springs sting ("Operation Midnight Heat," 37 arrests), the hosts argue undercover prostitution stings are a poor use of police resources compared to focusing on predators of minors, and make the case for regulating/legalizing sex work.

Caller: "J Volvo" — A young-sounding caller who turns out to be a 40-year-old Marine and brown belt calls in as a bit, pitching a "Fit Tom Fridays" 5K fundraiser idea for Seth's dojo; the hosts jokingly induct him as a rookie "cop" character and enjoy the surprise live call. New "Stage" Rock Band reboot — Discussion of an upcoming Rock Band-style rhythm game launching in December, with nostalgia about old Rock Band parties, and a broader riff on short attention spans/endless content (dating apps, streaming, mobile games) making it hard for any single game to hold interest. Six Flags roller coaster aneurysm story (teaser + full segment) — After a break, the hosts cover two women who suffered brain aneurysms riding Six Flags' X2 roller coaster, show POV footage of the ride's uniquely independently-spinning carts, and speculate (semi-jokingly) about the physics/anatomy behind why it happened. Flatulence and bathroom health talk — A crude tangent connecting back to Seth's MRI story, where he and the others discuss holding in gas, bowel habits, and general bathroom TMI.

Mad honey discussion — Seth explains he bought "mad honey" (a hallucinogenic honey from Nepal) and plans to have his wife try it first; the hosts detail its origins, effects, dangerous dosing risks, its history as an ancient biological weapon, and its recent viral popularity via a Joe Rogan clip. Nepal flooding aside — A brief, more serious detour about real disaster footage of catastrophic flooding in Nepal that circulated online. Psychedelics and mental health tangent — Talk shifts to Kratom, mushrooms, microdosing, and studies on psilocybin therapy for PTSD/anxiety; Seth admits he's more afraid of a mushroom trip than he ever was fighting professionally (referencing his MMA background against opponents like Kimbo Slice and Bob Sapp). Voicemail: adult content from caller "Mike" — A caller shares an explicit story from his younger years about hiring escorts for group parties at his house; the hosts summarize and react without repeating graphic detail. Voicemail: workplace exorcism question (BDM, Jacksonville) — A caller asks if anyone has heard of a business getting an exorcism, sparking a broader discussion about corporate superstition (feng shui, sage smudging, "energy"), with the hosts drawing a line between supernatural belief and legitimate ideas like attitude/mindset affecting outcomes. Voicemail: "Pure Pod" gadget — A caller points out that a produce-washing gadget advertised online is basically a vibrator; the hosts confirm the device is a real product marketed to skirt platform rules around selling sexual wellness items. Voicemail: old photo in ski resort system — A caller shares that a modern ski resort pulled up his decades-old childhood lift-ticket photo from a previous owner's records, leading to a discussion about how far back companies' digital recordkeeping goes and some personal skiing stories from the hosts. Dojo move update and wrap-up — Seth gives a final update: staying within a 3-mile radius under the new name "Soto Dojo," reviewing a lease, and dealing with a landlord dispute over alleged unpaid utility charges/liens the show insists were never billed properly. Studio/podcast future plugs and cruise pitch — The hosts float building a future glass-walled studio, mention recent released interviews (Patrick Warburton, Lorenzo Lamas), and give a detailed pitch for the upcoming Tom and Dan Cruise, including perks, cost, and booking details, before signing off. Key Dates / Plugs Mentioned November 2026 — Seth must vacate his current dojo location due to the building being demolished.

Streamline Mortgage Solutions (streamlineflorida.com) — Contact Brian for free mortgage guidance; he tracks changing mortgage programs/laws and alerts clients when it's worth refinancing. Segment Rundown Cold open: Orlando Weekly wins — Tom and Dan thank listeners for voting them #1 podcast in the Orlando Weekly awards again (won every year but one), explain why the recognition matters for their small business, praise Will's Pub owner Will Walker for leaning into similar local promotion, and tease a story they're saving for Monday's BDM-only show. Nobody has it figured out — After a bit riffing on an adult-film parody, the group discusses chasing money and fame with Aimee, including the story of Pauly Shore once calling them for business advice and George Wallace still hustling decades into his career — the takeaway being that no one, however successful, ever fully "figures it out." Selling 10% of the show — Inspired by NFL teams selling ownership stakes (the Atlanta Falcons' $1.6B sale of 10%) and Mark Cuban's rise, the hosts joke about selling 10% of Tom and Dan and using AI to preserve their likenesses after death. Aimee's job buyout — Aimee shares that she's taking a voluntary severance from her 12-year job at a Medicaid-based insurance company, effective by May 2027, and has already lined up new therapy and contract work; the hosts joke about her stealing office supplies and the three of them starting an affiliate partnership. Neighbor bush feud advice — Aimee asks for help with an 11-year feud with an elderly neighbor over a shared, overgrown bush encroaching on her house; the group runs through escalating "solutions" (hiring a surveyor since overhanging branches can legally be trimmed, plant diseases/whiteflies, popping tires, a kindness gift basket) while Aimee also vents about the same neighbors letting their dogs bark late at night. Aimee's upcoming shows (first plug) — Plugs for Aimee's long-running Shit Sandwich comedy show (15 years, first and third Fridays, with Rue co-hosting), a free family show/class Aug 29 at the Melrose Center, an improv jam that same night at Stigma Tattoos through the Florida Comedy Collective, and a Sept 26 West End Live show opening for Johnny Pemberton (Fallout, Superstore, Pickle and Peanut). Marching band car wash fundraiser — Tom plugs his niece's Lake Howell Marching Band charity car wash, comparing it to his own high school band fundraiser days, and the group riffs on whether kids doing donation-based fundraisers should just be tipped for playing their instruments instead, plus a jab at cheap oversized "big check" charity photo ops. AI voice-translation app demo — Dan shows off an AI app that translates a video into other languages (French, Mandarin, Swedish) in the speaker's own voice with matching lip movement, demoed using Tom & Dan Cruise 2027 promo clips, sparking discussion of how fast real-time translation tech is advancing. Optimus robot speculation — Riffing on a detail from Tesla's Aug 5 earnings call (robots reportedly getting chips before cars), the hosts imagine owning a humanoid Optimus robot to drive any car and handle housework and yard work, while questioning Elon Musk's track record on self-driving promises. Costa Concordia documentary recap — Tom recaps a Netflix documentary on the 2012 Costa Concordia disaster (the captain's unauthorized close "salute" pass, the reef strike, 32 deaths, his botched response and prison sentence), tying it back to their own upcoming Tom & Dan Cruise announcement. Poop stories and Concrete Mike call — A riff on awkward public-pooping stories (a "poop cruise" documentary, past guests improvising with towels) leads into a call from regular listener "Concrete Mike," who talks about using job-site dumpsters instead of portable toilets, becoming a new grandfather the night before, and hitting his 50th birthday. Aging radio personality tangent — A riff on an old colleague/bit going "full radio" and speculation about the declining health of an unnamed public figure known for hormone-replacement therapy abuse. Grave-niche theft follow-up — Dan describes keeping his parents' and family dog's ashes in an urn box in his wife's office, following up on a prior story about robbers stealing from cemetery niches. Caller: Tom's mom — Tom calls his mom live on air to ask, hypothetically, whether she'd help him commit various crimes (grave robbing, fake pest-control scams, driving a getaway car); she affectionately confirms she'd always back him, contrasted with Aimee's mom, who Aimee says would turn her in. Penn State cocaine ring story — Discussion of a news story about a cocaine trafficking ring run out of two Penn State fraternities, the alleged ringleader facing decades in prison, and a broader riff on drug legalization versus criminalization and treatment-based drug policy. Portland, Oregon tangent — A brief detour recalling an unsettling encounter with an intimidating stranger during a past trip to Portland, comparing its street culture to Orlando's. World's oldest person story — Discussion of the new Guinness World Record holder for oldest living person (a British woman turning 117) and the extraordinary span of history she's lived through — the Great Depression, WWII, the moon landing, the invention of the internet, two pandemics, and the Titanic sinking. Aimee's C-section story — Aimee shares her emergency C-section experience, including the surgical team nicking her breech baby's toe and playing an unwanted song during the procedure, plus a listener's story about a relative's more serious, complicated C-section. Future medicine and tech nostalgia — Closing speculation about longevity advances (cancer vaccines, genetic screening at birth) alongside early-technology nostalgia, including Dan's dad's status-symbol car phone. Show close and plugs — Final recap of Aimee's upcoming shows, a tease that BDM members will hear a special story on Monday's show, and a note that a full Tom & Dan Cruise announcement is coming soon. Key Dates / Plugs Mentioned August 29, 1:30 PM — Aimee LeCours' free family show/class at the Melrose Center (Orange County Library System).

Business/announcements — Studio "pinball meet and greet" event coming up (very limited tickets, announced last-minute); Andrew (the "pinball dude") adding more machines; Pizza Bruno sponsoring food, White Claw sponsoring drinks; framed as a fundraiser for a new app/website they're building. Tangent: lambskin condoms — Riff sparked by mishearing "chic" as a brand name; potted history of the "Sheik" condom brand (named after the 1921 Valentino film, marketed for disease prevention since birth-control marketing was illegal), plus a long bit about what lambskin condoms are actually made from. Voicemail: cousin Gary (from Texas) — Dale's older brother; called in after hearing Dale had called the show. Reminisced about Dan's late father and uncle Doug ("the funniest fuckers ever"), said Dan looks/sounds more like Uncle Doug than his own dad. Dan reflects on losing touch with Virginia family after his dad died, and on reconnecting now. Gary left a callback number and invited a visit/get-together. Health aside — Dan discusses recent heart workup: calcium score of zero, clean echo, no chamber enlargement — good news after some health scares that have him "rethinking a lot of relationships." News: Amelia Earhart — Discussion of the Nikumaroro Island "castaway theory" (a freckle-cream jar and heat-damaged glass found near an old campfire site); Purdue University's Legacy Institute sending an expedition to the island October 7, chasing a satellite anomaly thought to be her Lockheed Electra. Tangent: unsolved mysteries — MH370, giant rich-guy experimental planes that vanish, Alcatraz escapees (the "Escape from Alcatraz" pair), Billy the Kid death theories, ancient/pyramid conspiracy stuff, DB Cooper, and a long detour into Jeffrey Epstein death conspiracy theories — including the viral story about an Epstein-linked email tied to a Fortnite account ("Little St. Jeff1") that resurfaced in released files. Coal-mining oddities — Time-Life "Mysteries of the Unknown" book bit (frog found inside a lump of coal, petrified tree stump found underground); Centralia, PA mine fire mentioned as a real, "solved" phenomenon (not a mystery, just still burning). News: cemetery "niche" robberies — Three Central Florida suspects at large for breaking into cemetery niches (small mausoleum lockers holding cremains) and stealing ~$30,000 in jewelry/valuables. Long bit ranking this on a "scale of crimes" (near the bottom, close to victimless). Reddit story tangent — A woman discovered her late mother's belongings (rare rock-photography prints of Skynyrd, Tom Petty, etc.) being resold at Orlando's Thrift Con after her storage unit was auctioned off; she's trying to track down the buyer. Break plug — Ross McCoy's comedy show, "What Do You Want From Us" Moe Comedy Jam at the Funny Bone, October 17; tickets on sale "early next month." Caller: "Concrete Mike" — Grave-robbing story from his younger days selling magazines with a traveling group; friends back home (while he was on the road) robbed cemetery mausoleums for jewelry to fund LSD, made national news, several went to prison. Segues into a long string of acid-trip stories (Twister movie premiere, Walmart at 2:30am, etc.). Discussion: leaving Florida — Sparked by a BDM (fan community) thread; framed around Jordan Foley's farewell show that night at Will's Pub (moving to a small town near Nashville). Debate over whether people who don't actually use Florida's beaches/outdoors amenities should just move somewhere cheaper; examples cited include Dan's niece Daisy moving to Georgia, and general "normal American" suburban living not being tied to location once remote work is factored in. House-demolition story — Dan describes watching a neighboring house get fully demolished by an excavator crew in 58 minutes; tangent into the "McMansion" trend replacing old Florida houses on his street, and permit rules requiring a percentage of original walls to remain standing.

beer, pipes, knives, sex toys, and random junk Kenny the Pervert voicemail kicks off genie loophole debate They argue whether a third wish for a new genie beats the no-more-wishes rule Robin Williams in Aladdin becomes the gold standard for genie law The show spirals into shortcut culture, cheating systems, and loophole fantasies Kalshi and betting markets raise questions about insider info and

destination, not a trashy party choice Kids would still love a McDonald's birthday party even if parents judged it PlayPlaces, Ronald McDonald, liability, and staffing help explain why parties faded away Las Vegas voicemail asks if bringing an escort to a company party would get someone fired They joke that a high-end escort would blend in better than a movie-style hooker Male escorts, gigolos,

four movies and the original Miami setting Martin Lawrence's public breakdown leads to debate over stress versus drug use They argue drugs are usually behind the most extreme celebrity meltdowns Bad Boys was originally set up for Dana Carvey and John Lovitz They say Will Smith and Martin Lawrence made the movie work despite a weak script John Lovitz once visited the studio, brought his dog, and shed all over the couch Lovitz also wanted a much longer interview than expected Fear Factor reboot talk includes snake cruelty complaints and who even watches network TV now They question TV ratings, streaming numbers, and whether anyone is truly watching Bluey gets called the most watched show mostly because kids loop it nonstop They argue modern viewership stats are muddy, inflated, and kind of
