#0243 - The Day an Animal Shelter Accidentally Hotboxed Billings with Meth - 09/18/2025
This episode was absolute chaos wrapped in static-filled delirium: it opened with Billings officials turning an animal shelter into the world’s first involuntary meth rave, blasting two pounds of confiscated crank through a busted incinerator until every worker, dog, and hamster was higher than a kite on Pluto. Fourteen people got shipped to the hospital while cats plotted interdimensional coups in their foster homes. From there, the show lurched straight into Rexburg gossip—“Cards of Ruin” opening its doors to summon dark trading card energy, “Firefly Books & Comics” vowing to steal your wallet in exchange for pulp salvation, and Chipotle arriving in Idaho Falls like a burrito-shaped comet promising salvation and salsa. Then came the golden ticket mayhem: Aftershock festival giveaways, where Blink-182, Deftones, and Rob Zombie are apparently squatting together in Sacramento waiting for broke winners to hitchhike west on fumes and Pabst Blue Ribbon. Between caffeine crashes, the host ranted about AI hallucinating fake Strange Brew sequels called “Stranger Brews,” TikTok teens snorting Benadryl into the shadow realm, and coworkers named Karen passive-aggressively declaring war over lunch breaks. Peaches stumbled in to describe fever-dream wrestling moves in his parents’ living room, simulator games where adults pay money to mow virtual lawns, and a new personal low: streaming himself “just digging.” Bird documentaries morphed into roast sessions about bald heads and double chins, which somehow bled directly into National Cheeseburger Day—an unholy communion of Culver’s butterburgers, Buffalo Wild Wings meat slabs, and 50-cent McDonald’s grease bombs. By the end, everything had dissolved into reggae dirges about depression, Peaches threatening to stick exes in trophy rooms, and the eternal debate: Culver’s versus In-N-Out. The whole thing felt less like a podcast and more like a fever dream fueled by cheeseburgers, meth smoke, and bad simulator graphics—a symphony of nonsense and brilliance combusting in real time.
