Hey Interns, welcome to season 2. I mean, phase two of your internship! You have braved the hijinx and lack of safe working conditions suitable for most normal machinery, let alone humans. This phase will be more intense and involve a lot more personal time with us! EXCITED? (Don't worry, Zack and Eli have promised to wear deodorant more often). This week we are talking about how a peanut farmer saved a Canadian metropolis and how you could be measuring things in all sorts of weird ways. We hope you enjoy this phase and we are excited for this journey.…

Interns, have you ever wondered what happens to people who are too outdoorsy? Could they be eaten by wildebeests? Could they be taken out by the KGB? Well we will look into the mysterious happenings that took place with the Dyatlov Pass. We will also look at a royal member who was a recluse to the extreme degree, 5th Duke of Portland, John Bentinck. This shift is weird, just going to be Frank with you. I don't know who this Frank is either but he seems very stoic. Anyways, thank you interns for sticking around for 25 shifts so far. We are happy to bring these to you and happy that you think this experience will help your job hunt in the future.…

Join us this week interns as we talk about the Russian scientist who headbutted an atom and is still living to tell the tale. Also, let's head South of the border to learn about a different kind of president. Is he much different than the scandalous US ones we have covered? Maybe not, but he sure was tyrannical. We will cover the over 30 year reign of Mexican Leader Porfirio Diaz. Don't forget to follow us on socials @jointhedumb…

Can you interns believe it? Twenty shifts so far! This is a reason to celebrate! We aren’t paying for cake, but there could be a fun wordle puzzle later. Here is a hint, the word rhymes with SchMatthew Snconnohey. It is a very long wordle. Join us this week as we show our arborist military strength and why OSHA should have helped establish safety precautions a long time ago. Nuclear physicists were like nerdy bull riders. We will find out the difference between coyotes and hyenas as well, because as Elijah learns, they are not the same no matter what country you are in. Thank you all once again for following our journeys and cases thus far, we hope to bring more exciting cases for the thousands of shifts in the future.
