What was the easiest joke ever that they side stepped? I can’t hear it and I’m not that bright
La Grippe is the flu in French.
I absolutely love the old timey newspaper stuff. People probably look at me going down the interstate wondering what's wrong with me.
Momma's cow puncher. Girl on top guy sucks on one tit and uses the other as a speed bag.
Shipping fever … I gotta check the mail
What a great time! I could listen to you guys read these all day long. And yes, shit was definitely the shit back in the day lol
Million Ways to Die in the West on Netflix, rewatched and the ice scene had me laughing 🤣
Epizootio issoutbreak of infectious diseases
Please look up articles about an English boy band member called Brian Harvey. He was run over by his own car and the reason has had me laughing for years 🤣
In a mad world you two keep me sane. Thank you!
The little girl from Poltergeist died from sepsis after having surgery for a bowel defect.
I'm surprised you guys were so surprised about what went on in the asylums. Do some research, it will blow your mind. Humans can be so cruel to other humans.
How sad is it that I knew that vet drug was a vet drug right away? Hearing James talk about shipping fever and catarrhal fever was cracking me up! I'd LOVE to know what's in that bottle!
Gosh that was fun
There are in fact laxative type medications given for liver disease. By elimination the toxins are expelled. The systems are in fact connected. Beyond your understanding. In my 50 years if nursing have given people with liver disease a medication of this type
That mercury is in the P trap and will remain there until someone removes and turns it over. They'll get a surprise.
Mummas cow puncher sounds like a fisting dildo 😂

Grippe is the flu in German so maybe that’s what they are referring to with La Grippe? Although La is definitely not German so who the hell knows 🤷♀️
it’s la grippe in french and la gripe in spanish too! (the flu)
Can anyone help me with when part one was posted? I missed it and want to listen to that first before this one. Thanks.
January 31st was the Bonus Crime In Sports 😁
IMDB short synopsis of Mama’s Cowpuncher: Mama's Cowpuncher (1921) Little Harry's mother and father's ambition is for him to be a concert pianist, but he becomes the piano player in a Western dance hall. He is abused, insulted, and hazed until one day his girl tells him that she likes them rough, and just to please her, Harry becomes a terrorizing cowpuncher "rougher than the Atlantic." With the Black cook's help, he does some clever imitations of roping, bronco-busting, and sharp-shooting. Then he gets rough with the bad men and cleans them up. 🤔🤔🤔
Swarthy means dark-skinned. The extra adjectives James mentioned have been added by systemic racism.
Just looked up Mummas cowpuncher movie - looks 1920’s funny on google - want to watch it now 🤔😂
I know no one asked but here's some info about Crohn's Disease. A bowel obstruction is our worst nightmare! Either the small (usually) or large intestine has swollen shut from the inside. Immune system is trying its best to kill a part of the intestine as the wires are genetically crossed and see it as an invading entity needing destroyed! This happened to me 15 yrs ago. The human body is so amazing that once my small bowel was swollen shut, my body constructed a temporary escape tunnel (fistula) so that any waste that did trickle through could exit thru my bladder! Never underestimate the genius of the human body to continue its own existence! Heather was so young that doctors didn't even think it coulda been Crohn's. She would have lived had she been diagnosed a year or so earlier. She was constantly sick for several years before she died! 😔🙏🏼
New Ulm!!!
If La Grippe is anything like the German word Grippe, it's just the flu.
Yeah it’s just French for influenza
My grandpa always used the phrase "____'s got more money than Carter's got liver pills."
Wow, I was told a different lie but also threatened with Carol Ann’s death- every time I left the house with no coat, I was told I was going to die of Pneumonia like the girl from Poltergiest
Aside from the obvious anti-Soviet Union propaganda piece they read I enjoyed this episode quite a lot
Well, I mean... fuck the USSR? Weird place to get caught up lol
Ok, turkeys. Don’t come for me in the comments. This just needs to be said. I know race stuff makes James and Jimmie uncomfortable but it’s disingenuous of them to say “idk why they do that” when the old newspaper announced that a victim was “colored.” They KNOW why. We all KNOW why. Calling out a victim’s color or ethnicity is to inform readers “not one of us.” A white-owned newspaper with white reporters writing for white readers during the Jim Crow era treated everyone who wasn’t white as “other” because American meant white and English speaking but not English with an Irish accent. Or any accent. It’s ok to acknowledge it’s weird and gross. Go ahead and clown people for being bigots. They deserve to be made fun of, especially knowing they felt it was so important that they did extra work. It’s crazy. These people carefully spelled out each bigoted word letter by letter on a printing press because readers NEEDED to know how extremely not-white the subject of the article was. Details of not-whiteness must be given because if readers assumed a not-white person was white then readers would be giving whiteness away for free to that not-white! lol It’s ridiculous. God forbid they ever missed an opportunity to make sure remind white readers there were not-whites in their midst. “Slightly-built bronzed skin native of the Philippines,” “the maddened Filipino,” “two Negroes beat him,” “colored,” “stabbed a negro.” Just call dumb racist bullshit what it is: dumb, racist bullshit.
32:45 we talk about the investigating because we're assholes, but we're not scumbags
lmao they were grift selling ivermectin for 'le grippe' then, too, wow
La grippe is old term for the flu 😆😂😂😂😂😂
This is DEFINITELY the shittiest episode yet.... THERE WILL BE POOP!!
La grippe is the flu
My Grandma (born in 1917) was entirely obsessed by bowel health- it was such a big thing back then
My grandma was born in '26 and would always ask me if I'd "had a BM" when I was a kid... 🤭
The number of times I felt better after having a good shit.
But do your eyes sparkle?
Physic is the old timey word for a medicinal remedy. So a physic, as opposed to psychic or physique, was a medication. Kinda confusing, outdated terms often are. 💉💊
My uncle has cirrhosis of the liver and had to take MiraLax everyday because the cirrhosis made him constipated. I know that wasn't knowledge in 1911, but it's a medical knowledge now.
Yes! The liver and the gi tract are actually closely related lol to be fair I didn't know that until I had to start looking into a pediatric GI doctor for my son and found out that they often times do work with the liver as well
WE. NEED. OSHA!
Don't let trump get rid of osha and other worker protections
When I was a kid and I expressed i had a headache, my mother's first question was always about poop. "Did you poop today?" "When was the last time you pooped?" etc I never understood the connection.
Too much Tylenol kills your liver.
Have you seen the snake oil ads on you tube? Nothing changes because people expect a miracle cure.
Seems in these times, beatings and murder on the streets is okay again.
When I was a kid we were told that Heather O’Rourke died because making the Poltergeist movies were too scary and after the third one her heart couldn’t take it. I believed that shit after watching her cousin in part 3 claw her way out of Madam Serena’s body.
Putin was in charge back then? Falling out windows is do Rissian!
I fucking love A Million Ways to Die in the West 😆 🤣
PEDO GUALITO?!?!
My neighbour fell out of his window literally a couple months back! His house still had the original glass somehow from like 1910, he tripped over the vacuum cord and that glass just gave way when he hit it. Don't worry, it was ground floor and he was fine, thankfully. But old timey glass just turned in shards of death if you fell into them
Precursor to Ivermectin?
I was trying to remember what it was called! 😂
Le gripped is the flu
Cod liver pills. You could actually buy these into the 2000's. Perhaps, even today!
In reference to the Hungarian/Irish fight, I live in Cleveland, and if that guy was RUNNING down Franklin Hill he had a hell of a fucking head of steam on him. That hill is ridiculously steep! 😂👌
Woohoo!!
Love these!
They are all my favs. The boys bring their A game, regardless of subject matter!!
These are always some of my favorites!
Yay!!!
Yay indeed, Victoria, yay indeed!
Heck ya!!!
