Episode 416: The Fry Itself

I just want to say before anyone listens to this episode…I LOVE true crime! Podcasts, Dateline, asking Chappy Tea to embellish the grisly details of case files I looked up with a hacked PACER account…I can’t get enough. So when I imply in this episode that I think the cottage industry exploiting the victims of physical violence for t-shirt sales is horrifically sad and beneath contempt, I was talking about something else. Or I got confused or I was taken over by a brain thing or something. I got all messed up for a sec. It’s cool though. Anyway what else?

Oh yeah. Farts are funny and I’m a ninja pimp. Enjoy the episode

I work at a baby/children’s boutique and do the book buying for the shop. People come in at least once a month saying they or someone they know wrote a children’s book and it is 100% of the time self published through Amazon and illustrated by AI. I hit em with the ol “oo I’ll look into it!” and here are some unsolicited modern actually good children’s author recs for ur lil guy: Jon Klassen Phoebe Wahl Nina Laden Oliver Jeffers Matt de la Pena Christian Robinson Mac Barnett

Billy is actually a very cool and serious adult name so I wouldn’t fault them on that.

I'm listening to an older episode where the boys are talking fries, so this feels like serendipity or something.
