Prime Suspect ft. Oobah Butler

Our pal Oobah is back to talk about his new documentary on C4, "The Great Amazon Heist." Basically it consists of several elaborate ruses foisted on Amazon, exposing cracks in their edifice, and also the Coventry Amazon Black Site.

When the documentary was called 'Golden' I immediately thought that was a piss joke because alchemists used to think they could turn piss into Gold, fml. Great episode btw

Enough time has passed. It's time to bring the It's The Free One voice back in its former glory

Oobah's rabbit-droppings-as-medicine ancestor is engaging in an occupation of which I have heard and has been the subject of some thought over the years. I theorise that rabbits fed on certain plants/berries that contained chemicals that weren't bioavailable from the plant in humans due to lack of ability to digest cellulose could be more bioavailable when having passed once thru a rabbit's digestive system-rabbits being autocoprophagic due the gut coponent that breaks down cellulose cell walls of their food being below the area best able to absorb nutrition contained in the cracked cellulose and in the cytoplasms of them plant cells. If this had any actual effect in the patients administer'd such I don't know. I would get out more but there is a huge pile of sample bags full of rabbit stools in front of my basement door.

I dunno, I thought it was great for Oobah to merchandise the drink menu from The Shed at Dulwich for the broader Amazon-buying public… unlike Logan Paul it’s not like he posted video of a corpse to YouTube while running his successful restaurant business.

Much of the very funny reporting about Chuck "the pride of the Claremont Colleges" Johnson's alleged dispute with effluvia has sadly been the alleged victim of litigation, but some of it remains frozen in amber (a very old episode of Chapo Trap House). https://youtu.be/-OAxfOX8Yjw?si=weDGNcjkYSiYyTxh

As someone who went to the University of Southern California, I still keep confusing the Claremont Colleges with Cal Poly Pomona. Sorry but everything between the 5 and the Hudson River is kind of the same to me… is Pomona somewhere in New Jersey? (I’m from Chicago, though, so, don’t worry, I understand that Chicago is where you end up if you go north from Los Angeles instead of just east.)

Reminds me of Mark Thomas’ dispatches programme when he got some nuns and school kids to buy arms in the 90’s https://youtu.be/nVI_0epoVWc?si=j5vtKgsuZnftq8wS
