Every now and then we like to take stock of where we are in our slide towards the apocalypse, so this week we're looking back over the last four years and asking, has everything gotten worse?
Highlights:
[0:00] Marko tells Corrigan about an online asshole who murdered via suicide
[21:49] CoRri is a brash American, Mark finds out what brand of neurodivergent he is, and we delve into our weird dream states
[38:00] JoAG is going YouTube, the Conjuring is coming to our ko-fi, and we rip the Warrens again
[44:27] A Russian family melting down outside Corrigan's window leads to a discussion of corporal punishment
[53:06] What we watched! (Atlas, Escape from New York, The Fall Guy, The Coffee Table, Fallen Idols: Nick and Aaron Carter, The First Omen)
[86:49] From our personal lives to greeflation to AI, we question what's gotten worse and better since we started this podcast in August of 2020.
