OBDM1335 - The Snake Wife of India | The Black River Rake | Strange News
Crusin' with Steak! 00:00:00 – Setting the Table Mike opens solo with Grim (Cruzin with Steak) filling in; quick riff on nonstop political chaos, A24 movie talk, and a promise to kick off with "Alex Jones Clips of the Week." 00:04:34 – Alex Jones Clips of the Week A rapid, ridiculous Jones montage (soup bowls, "new world order," live rants) sets a comedic tone before shifting back to show business. 00:09:33 – Clip Hangover & Pivot They wrap the Jones bit and pivot toward current events and legal-ish headlines that'll recur later in the show. 00:13:10 – Jones Legal/Bankruptcy Thread Brief backgrounder chatter on Jones' court/receiver saga and "summary judgment" beats, used as a springboard to talk institutional power and punishments. 00:18:07 – "Big Balls" DC Assault Sentencing Outrage over the light probation for teens who beat the Elon/DDOS staffer known as "Big Balls"; used to argue why DC brought in the Guard and why people feel justice is upside-down. 00:23:06 – Federal vs. State: Guard Deployments Debate over courts blocking/allowing federally controlled Guard in Chicago; 10th/14th Amendment talk; "guns but no bullets" analogy; airports/Patriot Act as precedent. 00:27:41 – Strategy of Tension More on how protests, laser-targeting aircraft, and courtroom moves can manufacture the very "authoritarian" outcome activists fear. 00:32:40 – "Are We Building the Police State for Them?" Continuing the theme: court fights (Ninth Circuit), Guard units staging near Chicago, and how sustained agitation invites a harder crackdown. 00:37:17 – Hollywood Money Weirdness Quick detour: Saudi cash, game/film IP, and industry desperation — a palette cleanser before the weird news block heats up. 00:42:04 – Snake-Lady Headlines A viral Indian tabloid story: husband claims his wife is a shapeshifting snake; lots of side-eye, jokes, and "sorcerer" as legal expert. 00:47:01 – How Often Do 'Snake-Lady' Claims Happen? They try to quantify the phenomenon, conclude it's vanishingly rare, and tee up better-sourced U.S. weirdness. 00:51:58 – Carolina Pale Crawler: The Setup Introduce the Pender County, NC 911 case via the Carolina Case Files YouTube investigation; promise to play/parse the report. 00:56:39 – 911 Tape & Deputy Notes Caller sees a blood-soaked "Civil War soldier," then hears a slam: something jumps into his truck bed and beats on the cab; later thrown off by braking. 01:01:33 – The Witness Speaks Detailed eyewitness interview: milky white face at the rear glass, 7-foot lanky thing, thrown off at ~80→35 mph braking, sprints into the trees. 01:06:02 – Is It "The Rake"? They place the entity in modern folklore: AI images, creepypasta origins (4chan era), "pale emaciated" long-limbed descriptions vs. sparse credible sightings. 01:10:41 – North Carolina Weird File Pulls older NC cases (tiny "coke-bottle man," metallic spheres, odd odors, footprints) to show the region's high strangeness pedigree beyond "rake" lore. 01:15:28 – Area 51 Crash Gets Weirder Recap: man shot near the gate, then an aircraft crash; later, someone appears to have planted dummy bomb bodies and a mystery panel — FBI gets involved. 01:19:56 – "Where Are All the Aliens?" Tackle a new "aliens are apathetic" paper; hosts torch the hypothesis as "lazy aliens," reiterate their own takes (undersea/hybrid programs/dark forest). 01:24:36 – AI Dog Translator University of Texas team compiling massive canine audio/video to train an AI collar; debate whether it'll translate desires or just become a grift. 01:29:37 – CERN, Portals & '3I Atlas' Viral claim: CERN "opened a portal" and telepathically contacted a "draconian-occupied mothership" (3I Atlas). The crew treats it as eyebrow-raising sensationalism. 01:34:34 – Remote Viewing & Reptilians More on remote-viewer assertions (slime/tech/organic craft) and competing bureaucracies — then, "okay, let's do wacky news." 01:39:34 – Drive-By Cheeseburger Florida man allegedly weaponizes a cheeseburger during a strip-club spat; running jokes about "arsenals of food" in the car. 01:44:03 – World's Priciest Burger (Invite-Only) An $11k "by-invitation" burger with secret ingredients; hosts call it pure hype — like brand-building via billboards before making any clothes. 01:48:29 – The 50-Year Fake Blindness Scam Italian man accused of faking total blindness for decades; investigators filmed him doing everyday tasks — and now, big claw-back trouble. 01:52:31 – $680 Coffee & Sign-Offs Dubai café's record cup sparks "who'd pay that?" banter; show plugs, schedules, Battlefield talk, and the farewell roll. 01:56:48 – Outro Stinger Final seconds trail off with a goofy musical/button coda.

OBDM1333 - Escaping Our Simulation | The Saudi Riyadh Review | Strange News
The Left and the Right Deserve Each Other https://www.odwyerpr.com/story/public/23694/2025-10-03/left-right-deserve-each-other.html Bill Burr Destroys His Reputation https://youtu.be/PECQihXJb_g?si=kFBcglMmm1tWs4c8 00:00:00 – Cold Open, CB Radio Day & Show Plans Kicks off with loose banter about "National CB Day" vs. truckers, old-school CB culture, travel plans, and lining up guest co-hosts; sets a playful tone before hinting at heavier news. 00:10:00 – "Escaping the Simulation" Article They dissect a Popular Mechanics piece (and Roman Yampolskiy's ideas) on whether we can exit a simulated reality, poke holes in the write-up, and riff on paradoxes, mass meditation, and overloading "the system" with AI fluff. 00:20:00 – Books & Models of Reality Bringing in My Big TOE (Tom Campbell), The Holographic Universe (Talbot), and The Simulation Hypothesis (Virk), Mike contrasts "level 2" takes with richer frameworks—e.g., distributed-mind generation of reality vs. a Linux-in-the-sky overseer. 00:30:00 – Can You Really Get Out? They argue escape likely requires death or radical detachment (no attachments, near-Zen), invoke "life review," karma/progression RPG mechanics, and conclude there's no cheap hack—only becoming a better human. 00:40:00 – Mind Power, NPCs & Inner Monologue Into consciousness: people without inner monologues/mental imagery, social-cue humor, and how thought quality affects health and "the sim." They chew on whether offloading thinking to AI weakens individual processing and spawns weirder glitches. 00:50:00 – Headlines: Drones, War Talk & Odd Death Quick hits: NATO-airspace drone incursions; skepticism about Venezuela "seize the airfields" stories; and a troubling Texas case (GOP staffer death by self-immolation) with sealed records that fuels speculation. 01:00:00 – Transparency & Global Gen-Z Protests On sealed files, political ties, and why Gen-Z is protesting globally—social-media chain reactions from Madagascar to Nepal; digital natives demanding change in the streets. 01:10:00 – Libya, UK Digital IDs & BoBo Craze Libya headlines resurface; talk turns to rumored UK digital ID rollouts (timing, pushback), then a detour into BoBo collectible toys, pop-culture virality, and retail charts going bonkers. 01:20:00 – Saudi Soft Power: EA & Entertainment Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund keeps buying influence—EA deal talk, AI plays, and mega-city "The Line"; frames the Riyadh comedy festival as part of a broader rebrand. 01:30:00 – Riyadh Comedy Festival: Burr & Chappelle Bill Burr gets roasted for cashing a $1.5M+ gig and praising KSA after slamming billionaires; Chappelle says it's "easier to talk here than in America." They wonder who was invited, who wasn't, and whether any set will be released. 01:40:00 – Pitmaster… Deodorant?! Cratchet corner: Progresso launches BBQ-smoke "Pitmaster" deodorant to pair with its soup line; sold-out "Pit Kits" spur jokes about meme products and manufactured scarcity. 01:50:00 – "Jetpack Man" over LAX: Files Drop FOIA'd FBI docs muddy the mystery: pilots describe a humanoid-looking object with no visible propulsion; not a balloon, maybe not a person—just more questions and withheld pages. Cue wild "monkey suit goblin" punchlines. 02:00:00 – AI Music & Wrap They debut/talk AI-assisted songs ("Peg Your Jeans…", "Chubby Puppy"), muse on 90s-grunge vibes, and plug Patreon/next shows. Nostalgic music talk closes the loop.

OBDM1332 - Area 51 Two-Step | Ticking AI Bomb | What Happens After We Die? | Strange News
00:00:00 – Cold Open, Clips & Chaos Loose intro, tech hiccups, and a fast pivot into "clips of the week," featuring a barrage of Alex Jones soundbites (old gravelly vs. current voice), plus a quick, context-free Trump clip to set the show's tone. 00:10:00 – "It's All Happening" & Bankruptcy Theater Speculation that sheriff's deputies could seize Alex Jones/Infowars gear "as early as tomorrow," with riffs on the supposed value of studio computers and Jones' knack for rebooting operations overnight. 00:20:00 – Area 51 Double-Header: Gunfire & a "Mysterious Aircraft" Two back-to-back incidents near Area 51/Creech/Nellis spark theories: contamination and an escape attempt, witness suppression by "making him look erratic," or a PSYOP stress test to coordinate base responses. Hosts play a local TV hit about a drone/aircraft "incident" and connect dots with humor (and rock-lifting dares at the gate). 00:30:00 – Hollywood vs. Synthetic Stars Debate over an "AI actress" getting agent attention and a producer touting a film "helmed" by a virtual director; SAG-AFTRA pushback; the hosts argue audiences still want human experience—even if cartoons/CG are beloved. They predict an "AI first hit, then bust" cycle. 00:40:00 – Pets: Love, Debt, and Domestic Diplomacy A sobering segment on pet costs (lifetime cat/dog totals), "pet poverty," and the real logistics of blending a dog-and-cat household; one story has a couple divorcing over warring pets. Personal anecdotes, math-y back-of-the-napkin costs, and hard-won advice. 00:50:00 – What Happens After We Die? (UVA's DOPS) Deep dive into UVA's Division of Perceptual Studies: near-death experience patterns (tunnels, life review, veridical O.R. details under anesthesia), cultural lenses, and lingering unknowns because…consciousness itself remains unsolved. 01:00:00 – Space Rocks, Nukes, and the Wow Signal An asteroid with a small chance of hitting the Moon in 2032 prompts "nuke it?" jokes and movie throwbacks (Deep Impact/Armageddon), while Avi Loeb's musing ties 3I/ATLAS to the 1977 "Wow!" signal—fun, provocative speculation. 01:10:00 – Fat Bear Season & Aisle 9: Bear Animal news palate cleanser: Fat Bear Week hype (why bulking matters before hibernation) and a baby bear wandering into an Arizona grocery store—equal parts cute and chaotic. (Video described; no injuries.) 01:20:00 – Pumpkin Spice Cabal They uncover Starbucks' "Leaf Rakers Society," a private, all-things-autumn fan group with a tongue-in-cheek "secret handshake," and riff about seasonal cult vibes, memes, and moderators keeping things squeaky clean. 01:30:00 – Local Roads, Bad Choices Ohio highway anecdotes and viral clips: drivers stopping in live lanes to force last-second exits; ODOT scolding; a reminder to "take the next exit" instead of causing carnage. 01:40:00 – Night-Snack Science: What Not to Eat Before Bed From aged cheeses (tyramine → stress hormones) to salty chips and sugar bombs, they run a late-night food blacklist with comedic "bedtime steak" and cereal confessions—and why those choices sabotage sleep. 01:50:00 – Sleep Killers, Continued More don'ts (donuts, spicy foods, soda, etc.), wrapped in escalating bits about in-bed snacking disasters and derailed diets—plus one last Alex-style rant cameo for good measure. 02:00:00 – Wind-Down & Housekeeping Quick recap, moderation jokes ("in moderation, my guy"), thanks to listeners, site/merch housekeeping, and a sign-off that hints at more weird news next time.

OBDM1331 - The Manosphere | Rome Wasn't Real? Wild Theories and Strange Truths
00:00:00 – Sleepless Host, Loose Plan Mike opens sleep-deprived and punchy, setting expectations for a looser show with calls, goofy news, and a pivot away from a so-so Yowie/Kangaroo book; tees up Shag Harbor because even Popular Mechanics is poking at it lately. 00:10:00 – Bar-Band Taser Story → J6 Informants A wild 2006–07 New Year's gig tale (friends tasing each other) segues into news: House inquiries about how many paid informants the FBI embedded on Jan. 6 and whether they informed or instigated. 00:20:00 – Hard News Beats & Callers Leaning into "hardcore news," the guys riff on hearings and agency caginess around undercover counts and information-sharing, with Mike's sardonic play-by-play of how bureaucrats dodge questions. 00:30:00 – TikTok, Trends, & Masculinity Setup The cultural beat widens—social-media weirdness, youth trends, and the runway to a bigger masculinity/manosphere segment and a planned "top 10" conspiracies list. 00:40:00 – Saudi Comedy, Culture Clashes Jokes about U.S. comics doing gigs in Saudi Arabia—what lands, what doesn't—and how culture gaps change the show you'd write for that crowd. 00:50:00 – Manosphere Firestorm They read the Wikipedia/UN-ish "red pill/manosphere" framing and torch the definitions, noting big names omitted (Rogan) and how media narratives flatten nuance. 01:00:00 – Launching the Top-10: "Rewriting History" The countdown begins—snarky fact-checks and asides as they chew through entries, from recent space-stunt claims to older internet chestnuts—warming up for the deep-end items. 01:10:00 – #6: "Did Rome Ever Exist?" They unpack the "phantom Rome" hypothesis (Fomenko et al.), why historians reject it, and why the idea still fascinates—fun, skeptical, and theatrical. 01:20:00 – #3 & #2: Holocaust Denial, Challenger Survivors Serious tone for denialism (they underscore the evidence and why the misinformation is dangerous), then tackle "Challenger crew survived" riffs, mixing memory, engineering talk, and media literacy. 01:30:00 – #1: "Jet Fuel/Steel Beams" They close the list with 9/11 physics basics (strength loss vs. melting), ejector-seat fantasies for the Shuttle, and why some "gotcha" lines persist online. 01:40:00 – The Return of "Penis Man" Phoenix/Tempe's infamous graffiti saga is back; news packages, a custom "Ballad of Penis Man," and then—boom—an arrest update, with side-quests into the suspect's punk/skate/IG world. 01:50:00 – National AJ Day, Hey-Yo Nation A restaurant-made "holiday" sparks AJ-bit madness: greeting the world with "hey yo," tagging Alex Jones online, and piling on goofy AJ-lore. 02:00:00 – Sign-Off Shenanigans Free-association finale: Saudis/comedy again, "jet fuel can't melt steel beams" riffs, and musical chaos rolling into the credits and one last Penis Man flourish.

OBDM1330 - Charlie Kirk Conspiracy Deep Dive | Rapture Delayed | Strange News
00:00:00 – Cold Open, Korn & Alex Jones Warm-up Loose banter about Korn and 90s heavy music crashes into the weekly "Alex Jones Clips of the Week," plus Mike's insomnia saga and general show setup. 00:10:00 – AJ Soundboard Frenzy & Vibes Check More Jones drops, jokes about other podcasts reusing clips, and a running gag about "morale and vibes" being in freefall; tee-up for a Charlie Kirk deep-dive. 00:20:00 – Snake Eyes & Synchros They compare the Snake Eyes (1998) assassination scene to the alleged Kirk shooting—date matches, name rhymes, "enough is enough" thumbnails—then trot out the Illuminati card game coincidences. 00:30:00 – Drones, Bugs, and Bad Physics Viewer-found "drones" in crowd footage spark analysis; the crew pushes back (could be bugs/low-res artifacts) and calls out recoil physics; attention shifts to a suspicious jet track over Utah. 00:40:00 – The HADES Jet Theory A Bombardier "AXLE-10" Army spy jet allegedly flies low/slow pre-event and returns near time of the attack; theory suggests it deployed/recovered drones. Hosts counter with Occam's razor and ask why launch from a plane when a van would do. 00:50:00 – Rapture Delayed for… Epstein Files? A pastor's failed Sept 23 rapture prediction morphs into a meme that "God's waiting on the Epstein files." Quick hit: a gunman fires at an Area 51 gate; then into a study claiming most life is on "autopilot." 01:00:00 – Autopilot & Kimmel Returns Using autopilot to free brain cycles, Mike riffs on building an OBDM game. Then a spicy take on Jimmy Kimmel's return, YouTube views vs. TV ratings, and late-night culture snark. 01:10:00 – New Stealth Drone & Grave-Digging Worlds Lockheed unveils a slick "collaborative combat aircraft" concept; the guys joke it's straight out of 80s G.I. Joe. Then: Hungary's International Grave-Digging Championship (speed, precision, and the "first law of holes"). 01:20:00 – Sahara Mummies & Dildo's Honorary Mayor Pop-mechanics piece: 7,000-year-old Saharan mummies with a distinct North African lineage; side-trip to Dildo, Newfoundland rallying behind honorary mayor Jimmy Kimmel. 01:30:00 – Aspen's 'Glory Hole Park' Glow-Up & Mayo Arson Sequel City is upgrading trails/access at "Glory Hole Park," sending the show into 10 minutes of double-entendre gold. Then a follow-up: Hellmann's offers to repair a café after a mayo-rage arson. 01:40:00 – The Soy Sauce Schism A B.C. sushi spot posts: "We never serve extra soy sauce." Community memes it; owner defends culinary intent and health; hosts crown him the "Soy Nazi." 01:50:00 – Hershey's Halloween Lawsuit & Prison Coders Class-action over "deceptive" ghost/pumpkin shapes gets tossed; jokes about SCOTUS writing 40-page opinions on candy. Then: profile of inmates thriving in remote software jobs from inside prison. 02:00:00 – Sign-off & Condiment Callbacks Loose wrap with callbacks (soy sauce, mayo, condiments), plugs, and a goofy "skyscrapers & jazz" riff headed into the outro.

OBDM1329 - Censoring Kimmel | Underwater Aliens | Strange News
End Song: "Squandered" by Salvage 00:00:00 – Cold Open, Social Media "Raw Sewage," and the Kimmel Setup The guys kick off with snack banter and a barking "producer dog," then vent about the internet's sewage firehose and culture-war escalation—teasing the night's first big story: ABC suspending Jimmy Kimmel after his Charlie Kirk bit. 00:10:00 – Kimmel vs. Disney: The Contract Chess Match They read coverage framing Bob Iger and Disney caught between D.C. pressure and Hollywood outrage, play Kimmel's clip about Kirk, and argue Disney may just be hunting a morals-clause exit more than defending speech. 00:20:00 – "Free Speech" or Just Business? A sharper take on free-speech claims: the FCC can't outlaw Kimmel; platforms and affiliates can still walk. They contrast today's outrage with past deplatformings (e.g., Alex Jones) and point out the inconsistency of everyone's "principles." 00:30:00 – The Australia Mix-Up & Ratings Reality They laugh over hundreds of Kimmel complaints misdirected to Australia's ABC, then note ratings and affiliate ad pressure may matter more than politics. Protest optics aside, reruns could probably match his numbers. 00:40:00 – Burchett, SKIFs, and "Deep-Water Entities" Pivot to UFOs/USOs: Rep. Tim Burchett's chatter about craft emerging from deep water; SKIF whispers around David Grusch; frustration that hearings recycle stories without subpoenaing the real gatekeepers. 00:50:00 – Invisible Residents: Classic USO Cases A tour through Ivan T. Sanderson's 1970 book: cigar-shaped blue-white craft pacing a ship, diving beneath the hull, and WWII-era objects surfacing then shooting skyward—suggesting surveillance patrols and ocean "bases." 01:00:00 – Viral "Meteor Slime" Debunk That TikTok "living meteorite" from Panama? Great practical effects, not aliens. They cite polymer/hexane demo videos showing the exact wriggle behavior; fun Halloween content, just not real. 01:10:00 – The Hat Man: Sleep Paralysis or Shadow Entity? Deep dive into the Hat Man meme: neuroscientists say it's culture-shaped sleep paralysis; the show entertains that plus the paranormal angle (shadow people, MIB parallels). Listeners share eerily similar accounts. 01:20:00 – Call-Ins: Ouija, Weird Sleep, Witching Hour Callers recount Ouija board weirdness and a rash of 1–3 a.m. wake-ups. The crew swaps remedies and wonders—half-joking—if celestial strangeness is messing with everyone's sleep. 01:30:00 – Jezebel's "We Hired Witches" Piece Gets Pulled They review the Jezebel article boasting an Etsy curse on Charlie Kirk (later edited/removed post-assassination), debate ethics of "satire" about hexes, and note a new doc where a guy seeks to be cursed to test effects. 01:40:00 – Are Whales Trying to Talk to Us? From crop circles to "bubble circles": humpbacks blowing rings around swimmers/boats as possible communication; shoutouts to bioacoustic playback experiments and Star Trek IV's "talk to the whales" lesson. 01:50:00 – Akron Lawn-Mower Caper & Dumb-Crime Detour Ohio man allegedly flips school-district mowers on Facebook Marketplace—embezzlement or just brazen stupidity? They roast the scheme (and marketing tactics). 02:00:00 – Flying Cars Crash, Duct-Taped Commuter & Sign-Off Chinese VTOL "flying cars" collide during an airshow rehearsal; the crew imagines an Amazon drone commuter basket and jokes about a duct-taped rider sipping a Slurpee. Closing plugs and "watch the skies…and drones."
