Quebecker here, the forest fire, this year, is caused by a really dry and hot month of may, I think the hottest ever and, I think. Like they say we let run fire, unless they get really big, however this year is been insane in the number, and the fact that a lot of them are way bigger then usual. A lot of factor is in there, years of destruction of marsh land, the violent cut of a lot of our forest.
17:10 As someone who has lived in Québec for over a decade, I think it's important to correct the record on something here. The fire would *not* have been started by a guy named Jean François. Rather, a guy named Keven (imagine "Kevin" but pronounced like it was spelled "Kéveune"), or perhaps Steeve (yes they spell it like that here) would have started it, presumably after dumping a cigarette butt from his four-wheeler.

@Pace G. Schwarz she knows an impressive number of Québec "sacres", which are the church words the québécois use for profanity. They're all deformations of Catholic lore or paraphernalia, so the tabernacle becomes "tabarnak", the host becomes "ostie", the chalice becomes "câlisse". You can string as many as you like together separated by the preposition "de", and they equate in terms of profanity to shit or fuck in English. So to translate 17:45 : "câlisse, tabarnak, je veux exploser le Ski-Doo" = fuck, shit, I want to explode the Ski-Doo And then at 17:59 : "Ostie de tabarnak de câlisse de smoke" is like, "shitty goddamn fuckin' smoke"
Kevinism is still alive and well. We may solve racism and run out of engineering disasters to cover, but there will be no end to bias against people named Kevin.
Liam saying he's answering Patreon DMs warms my heart. I sent one awhile ago asking if they need a transcriber - because I want to transcribe this podcast specifically.
Here's hoping they take you up on that-it would be a nice bonus for those of us currently relying on CZcams's garbled subtitles. (I also considered volunteering for transcription duty but I'm FAR too unreliable lol)
@@synxsnacks1552 Yes, that's me! It was a bit confusing, the way they talked about it. I'm not an employee of their company but do the captions on a contractor basis. I'd honestly love to do it for free but it's actually waay more work than you might think. Worthwhile and wholly enjoyable, but very challenging.

Here's a cool tip for all of the hot cats I call it the two fans method. One fan points out of a window. This should either be a dual fan window mounted unit, or a box fan about two feet back from the window. Open and close other windows to manage air flow. The second fan points at your body. As long as the air you blow over your body is even a little bit colder than you, you will feel chill, especially if you are sweating
I am going through week of constant chronic pain right now, am barely able to even work every day, and am somehow supposed to deliver a master thesis on time while not trying to game-end myself. I can't take these news atm. I'll catch up with the videos once I made it (fingers crossed).
In my experience talking to strangers etc about climate worries has been productive, especially approaching it "I'm worried about this warm weather", "I'm scared about summer" "have you heard about what happened in Canada" and then going with things which individuals can do "did you know plants locally reduce the temperature because of all the water stored in the leaves" "I wish that someone would xyz" depending on who they are

I drank to much choccy milk and have contracted I'm gonna fucking die disease. Hopefully this episode will cure it. A day late, but the episode has cured by I'm gonna fucking die disease. However, the episode soon ended and stopped my distraction. It went away after I finally digested the last bits of the choccy milk.
Thinking of how truthers immediately pop up for any accident, I was wondering how far that went, whether there were truthers for stuff that didn't even involve humans like natural disasters, but then I remembered Marjorie Taylor Green's views on wildfires, so yeah
Imagine dedicating an entire segment to news only for "Titanic claims more lives" to strike just after you publish it. I look forward to that eventual episode because everything I hear about this sub was a disaster waiting to happen.

Note on "California brain"-- This is a land of contrasts. Many mountain communities (example, Paradise) are/were affordable workforce and retirement housing. There are, of course, the marquee celebrities as well (Malibu, Santa Barbara), and middle-class vacation neighborhoods. Fires in national forests, and especially designated wilderness, are allowed to burn unimpeded, as is the natural cycle.
@@EmlynBryn you gotta alternate so you don’t become consumed by the horrors. It goes from “yeah my coworker had his eye popped by a light fixture” to “yeah one time some chemicals were stored improperly but nothing bad happened”
I rarely if ever leave comments but the fire section got me heated (ha! - but also rip us) so just a lil word on that: every year all across Canada the fire seasons get worse, to the point of ash raining down from the sky - Alberta alone has evacuated over 35 000 people and we keep losing whole ass towns. There are huge firefighting efforts across the country, but early prévention is the best course of action and once the fires reach à certain stage you ... cannot fight them. For à course in truly embarrassing fire response, take a peak at Alberta - recently having stripped rapid response remote firefighting teams. Climate change keeps hitting us with wildfires, floods, and à never ending feedback loop that keeps getting worse thanks to monocultures, climate change, soil érosion, etc. Looking forward to the wildfire episode, and ensuring that the greedy capitalists who'll see us burn "have a nice time". (ps. doing my best to have sympathy for the city folks who're just now glimpsing the hellscape we live in but ... I can't hear you over our lost towns sry) edit: I wanna make sure I specify my tone - solidarity w everyone suffering, stay pissed off, yell à lot, and find some addresses ✨️
I live in Edson, one of the Alberta towns that was evacuated twice this year (so far, it's only June...). Now we're in another state of emergency due to flash flooding from heavy rain. And of course the town is full of right wing nutjobs who think Trudeau and Notley started these fires on purpose
As someone in BC, God yeah. Every year it's just a wait list to see if our area gets put on evacuation order (We were on alert in 2021, but thankfully haven't had an evacuation order since 2017)

Surprised y'all still didn't talk about the Nova Kakhovka dam being blown up. Feels more significant in terms of ecological and human costs than some of the other news items here.
Dam collapse is about as iconic as bridge fall down. I kept hoping they'd cover it, particularly given that Russia had announced they rigged it with explosives last year, yet claimed it was destroyed by artillery. Would have been good to hear a good dam explanation.
The wanted poster is the lead here. Whichever FBI artist made that put their whole foot in it b/c if the 90s had memes the Unabomber sketch is unquestionably featured in the montage

My pitch for trans story time is a post modern revival of Morris dancing. Everyone gets matching white riot gear, has brightly coloured bows on their knees and elbows and we'll replace the traditional sticks with 5lb framing hammers.

Same Alice same. My house is a dorma bungalow type thing. So the heat on the tiles turns the ceiling into a sodding radiator. When we hit 40 last year it was 46 in my room and I'm disabled so don't have many options. Winters been mild too. Plus I'm on morphine which wares off at night so I end up sweaty before the heat.
Good thing you made this episode so you have all the news covered for a while. I mean it's not like an equal amount of new bullshit could happen in just the next week right
Alice, the word you're looking for at the 30 minute mark is "fatal non-reactivity" - more or less disassociation. The thing sci-fi and horror gets wrong is it assumes people will see the alien horde or wendigo or space ice tsunami in front of them. Turns out, beyond a certain level of abstraction, complexity, or over a long enough exposure, our brains tend to just filter out threats, specially if the majority of people around us don't react. Now people all running and screaming, that we react to.
It's really good for hunting megafauna as a group and overcoming instinctual fears that prevent expansion and cultural growth, but the side effect is it doesn't discriminate threats, so it kills a large amount of individuals and wipes out entire groups regularly. This wasn't a problem when we were diasporic and disconnected, but now we're basically one big "group", and that's why it's an extinction-level evolutionary fuckup.
Been keen on getting all the trans people in my city practicing napoleonic infantry drills in a different park every sunday. NBs forming the artillery corps. No success so far.

@@flametitan100 Have been doing some cutlass drill with appropritely wieghted training swords, and trying to develop the requisite intestinal fortitude to hit the HEMA salle round here. Have instructors etc been cool or is it just self taught?
Worked as a dispatcher and trained new ones, I always told them, that they should stick to the procedure and don't care about delays. Overwriting a stop showing signal is one of the most dangerous thing you can do. You always have to check every switch and if you didn't know, if a train has left the section, give the a written order, to go slow and look out for hazard. And yes, Nazis have no idea about trains. I recommend "The Most Valuable Asset of the Reich: A History of the German National Railway, Volume 2, 1933-1945" by Mierzejewski.
You know, it doesn't help that here in Ontario our premier decided we couldn't possibly need all that money going to our forest fire fighting budget. So he reallocated it. Probably to his buddies.

So to translate 17:45 : "câlisse, tabarnak, je veux exploser le Ski-Doo" = fuck, shit, I want to explode the Ski-Doo
And then at 17:59 : "Ostie de tabarnak de câlisse de smoke" is like, "shitty goddamn fuckin' smoke"
Kevinism is still alive and well. We may solve racism and run out of engineering disasters to cover, but there will be no end to bias against people named Kevin.
Liam saying he's answering Patreon DMs warms my heart. I sent one awhile ago asking if they need a transcriber - because I want to transcribe this podcast specifically.
Here's hoping they take you up on that-it would be a nice bonus for those of us currently relying on CZcams's garbled subtitles. (I also considered volunteering for transcription duty but I'm FAR too unreliable lol)
someone does do that, as a thing, and they have commissioned this person in the past, i think? or at least tried to pay them.
@@synxsnacks1552 Yes, that's me! It was a bit confusing, the way they talked about it. I'm not an employee of their company but do the captions on a contractor basis. I'd honestly love to do it for free but it's actually waay more work than you might think. Worthwhile and wholly enjoyable, but very challenging.
@@nailati Alas, it takes me several days to finish the captions but if you look at recent episodes, they're on there - and I'm working through the existing episodes from most to least popular. Better late than never, though, I hope!
@Katina Walters I hope he answers you regardless, and commend you for making the offer. That's how we make things happen, is by speaking up!

Ah yes. The greatest engineering disaster. The god damn news.
Well There's Your Problem, a podcast about everyday disasters. With slides. Yay Liam.

9:44 you dont realise how consistent Roz is until you hear him describe Indian trains and think you accidentally clicked on an older episode.
Here's a cool tip for all of the hot cats I call it the two fans method. One fan points out of a window. This should either be a dual fan window mounted unit, or a box fan about two feet back from the window. Open and close other windows to manage air flow. The second fan points at your body. As long as the air you blow over your body is even a little bit colder than you, you will feel chill, especially if you are sweating
The real engineering disaster is the world we live in
I thought the real engineering disaster is all the friends we made along the way.
No, because it's not engineered, it just happened that all the stupidity and egoism created that black hole.
@@ValerieEnriquezyes, which all have to live in that world as part of it.
"So first we have to address... what is news?"
1:06:31 Liam: "whatshisname, the one I hate..."
Me: "do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?"
So To Liams credit, if they banaced out this all News episode with an all safety third episode they could call that episode "not safe for work"
You have found the solution!
@@PFMediaServices thesis, antithesis, synthesis
Oh that’s perfect
Now we need Oops! All Safety Thirds!
I am going through week of constant chronic pain right now, am barely able to even work every day, and am somehow supposed to deliver a master thesis on time while not trying to game-end myself. I can't take these news atm. I'll catch up with the videos once I made it (fingers crossed).
Insane how the current events episode preceded the implosion of the Titan submersible and the Wagner mutiny. They truly predicted things happening
In my experience talking to strangers etc about climate worries has been productive, especially approaching it "I'm worried about this warm weather", "I'm scared about summer" "have you heard about what happened in Canada" and then going with things which individuals can do "did you know plants locally reduce the temperature because of all the water stored in the leaves" "I wish that someone would xyz" depending on who they are
This podcast is all the permission I need to finally pull the trigger on buying that halberd I've had my eye on. My wife will thank you.
To halberd and to hold...
...I'll see myself out.
Well There's Your Problem" is perfect, one of the best named podcasts out there.
I won't be around but I like to picture how Rocz and Liam and Alice and Devon will be in their 60's. I hope they will be even more cantankerous and sarcastic. That is a hopeful thought for me.
I hasten to add that is simply because I am already hitting my 60th year, its just age not intention!
Hey now, chin up. I'm certain that elderly Liam will give you a very special salute like an angry bearded Willard Scott on your 100th birthday.

They are the podcast that hates you back™️, after all
You have those kind of nightmares too? Boy, do they suck...
@@bchin4005 Usually when I have the nightmare where my teeth are breaking/falling out, someone in my family dies.
@@bchin4005 yeah they do. Ive been grinding my teeth really bad lately so they are getting beat up and I've already managed to chip a few, and I think the stress over it makes me grind my teeth more, it's a stupid feedback loop.
FINALLY, ALL NEWS EPISODE
Goddammit
The wait is over
If it’s not an original unabomb, then it’s just sparkling explosives.
Thank you very much Justin, Liam, Alice (and Devon!) for this fantastic episode.
Since nobody seems to be mentioning it: The Pennsylvania DOT is literally live-streaming the repairs to I-95 after the incident covered in this episode
It's always a good day when this show drops while I'm on a train
Better than a train dropping while you're on this show, definitely.
The X-37B Puppykiller? Wait, is it killing them from space like a Reagan pipe dream, or are they doing a Laika thing but over and over because its a spaceplane?
Its a combination of both, its also called "Dogs From God" where it can precission drop dogs from space.
I was thinking a drone with owl talons that would just swoop down and snatch the puppy off the ground and then fly to high altitude until it freezes to death.
it disappears into space on mysterious business for months at a time, then falls out of the sky directly onto a kennel
I believe that it would be the former.
Berlusconi is still dead and there is a new WTYP episode. Rejoice everyone!

I want a GOP debate where Trump's ankle monitor starts going off and no-one can figure out how to stop the beeping.
Ah something to make me feel infinitely better in the face of being laid off and being in the process of moving with no AC in 90 degree F heat. Thank you for this one! Cheers y’all!
And so, they moved on to the *social and political engineering* disaster that is our world
I live for Devon’s commentary. Infrequent, yet classic.
Devon is low-key my favorite part of the podcast
« Calisse, tabarnac, je vais exploser le ski-doo ! »

Much love from a Québecois fan ! ❤

@@BravoCharlesesLMAO, I didn't even realise there were two different machines! Vive la différence, eh?
I drank to much choccy milk and have contracted I'm gonna fucking die disease. Hopefully this episode will cure it.
A day late, but the episode has cured by I'm gonna fucking die disease. However, the episode soon ended and stopped my distraction. It went away after I finally digested the last bits of the choccy milk.
Thinking of how truthers immediately pop up for any accident, I was wondering how far that went, whether there were truthers for stuff that didn't even involve humans like natural disasters, but then I remembered Marjorie Taylor Green's views on wildfires, so yeah
I was a medic in NY. Talking to my friends there is nuts. Tons of severe respiratory patients. People died as a result of the air quality.
I'm an asthmatic, I knew they would.😢
Imagine dedicating an entire segment to news only for "Titanic claims more lives" to strike just after you publish it. I look forward to that eventual episode because everything I hear about this sub was a disaster waiting to happen.
“The taco salads in here are just terrible. I’m telling you, the Mexicans, they won’t even eat them. The taco salads at Trump Tower are far better. You know, here that’s what they’re saying, the word on the yard. Mexicans love me.”
Note on "California brain"-- This is a land of contrasts. Many mountain communities (example, Paradise) are/were affordable workforce and retirement housing. There are, of course, the marquee celebrities as well (Malibu, Santa Barbara), and middle-class vacation neighborhoods. Fires in national forests, and especially designated wilderness, are allowed to burn unimpeded, as is the natural cycle.
I do like how they have an editor basically just to get rid of all of Liam's actionable threats. Fighting the good fight I say.
Can I suggest an oops, all safety third episode if you get behind on them?
Ooh the most possible psychic damage. Should they ratchet up from casual to body horror (like the wire factory acid vat guy)
@@EmlynBryn you gotta alternate so you don’t become consumed by the horrors. It goes from “yeah my coworker had his eye popped by a light fixture” to “yeah one time some chemicals were stored improperly but nothing bad happened”
@@KrakenEggs I had a good safety third at work not long ago. guy sliced off the front of his lower leg trying to stop a loaded pallet jack
@@kadenstimpson3167 submit it! Safety third is honestly my favorite part of the show!
This
I rarely if ever leave comments but the fire section got me heated (ha! - but also rip us) so just a lil word on that: every year all across Canada the fire seasons get worse, to the point of ash raining down from the sky - Alberta alone has evacuated over 35 000 people and we keep losing whole ass towns. There are huge firefighting efforts across the country, but early prévention is the best course of action and once the fires reach à certain stage you ... cannot fight them. For à course in truly embarrassing fire response, take a peak at Alberta - recently having stripped rapid response remote firefighting teams. Climate change keeps hitting us with wildfires, floods, and à never ending feedback loop that keeps getting worse thanks to monocultures, climate change, soil érosion, etc. Looking forward to the wildfire episode, and ensuring that the greedy capitalists who'll see us burn "have a nice time". (ps. doing my best to have sympathy for the city folks who're just now glimpsing the hellscape we live in but ... I can't hear you over our lost towns sry)
edit: I wanna make sure I specify my tone - solidarity w everyone suffering, stay pissed off, yell à lot, and find some addresses ✨️
I empathize (and also for the french autocorrect fucking you over, I get that too...)
I live in Edson, one of the Alberta towns that was evacuated twice this year (so far, it's only June...). Now we're in another state of emergency due to flash flooding from heavy rain. And of course the town is full of right wing nutjobs who think Trudeau and Notley started these fires on purpose
@@teecee1827 cursed both by having lived in Alberta/Québec and by bilinguisme 🤘😔
As someone in BC, God yeah. Every year it's just a wait list to see if our area gets put on evacuation order (We were on alert in 2021, but thankfully haven't had an evacuation order since 2017)
@@flametitan100 right?! I was in the Okanagan in 2021, back when the White Rock fire hit stage 4 - literal ash from the sky. I wish it wasn't so ubiquitous yknow? I've had a go-bag packed and ready for years
The person behind Trump is Senator Markwayne Mullin, a former MMA fighter and overall failson, who famously got spanked by Sean O’Brien of the Teamsters.
Surprised y'all still didn't talk about the Nova Kakhovka dam being blown up. Feels more significant in terms of ecological and human costs than some of the other news items here.
You’re assuming they recorded this after it was blown up.
@@zeitgeistx5239 I think it has to be, the I-95 collapse was more recent than the dam bombing
Dam collapse is about as iconic as bridge fall down. I kept hoping they'd cover it, particularly given that Russia had announced they rigged it with explosives last year, yet claimed it was destroyed by artillery.
Would have been good to hear a good dam explanation.
ah fuck yeah how did we forget that
@@alicecaldwell-kelly9530 it happens 😅 looking forward to hearing y'alls thoughts next time
arguably the best thing about Ted Kaczynski is the name "Unabomber".
The wanted poster is the lead here. Whichever FBI artist made that put their whole foot in it b/c if the 90s had memes the Unabomber sketch is unquestionably featured in the montage
As a spanish speaker, the Unabomber implies there will be a Dosbomber
@@zyavoosvawleilte1308 i think the Dosbomber was Bill Gates😀
Which is funny because I'm pretty sure Unabomber is an acronym for a "university n' airport bomber" since that's what people thought his original targets were.
It's a lot less impressive when you realize what the letters stand for
Kissinger Goon Cave is something I never thought I would hear
Liam, speaking as though he expects this to narrow it down: "the one I hate"
I wouldn't rename the whole Podcast into NSFW, Well there's your Problem has great searchability
Slightly disappointed no commentary on the missing sub full of billionaires. Can’t wait for the WTYP coverage of that one!
The wut
@@bondfall0072 There's a submarine with very rich people who went down to see the Titanic shipwreck.
It cost a lot to go.
The sub went missing.
They're probably dead.
@@grmpEqweer also the submarine is on some silicon valley "we are BEYOND your puny "safety laws" and "being rated for travel" bullshit which adds that extra little MMMM
@@grmpEqweer oh no. I found an article about it this morning. I hope they can be found
The gods of 'thing fall down', '70% extra fire', and 'my boss is trying to kill me but I am held hostage by civilization', has blessed us this day with more mayhem.
as a quebecois, this shit made me laugh. Good shit fellas
OMG, the Ted section has me picturing the WTYP crew doing a "unab0m" version of the "meow" game from _Super Troopers_ -- am I the only one?
One of the things i remember from my parents going to Italy is a bus driver they had telling them "Corruption? You don´t know shit about corruption! Compared to us you're all breastfed babies!" after they told they were from Latin America
My pitch for trans story time is a post modern revival of Morris dancing. Everyone gets matching white riot gear, has brightly coloured bows on their knees and elbows and we'll replace the traditional sticks with 5lb framing hammers. Then you can claim that it's not security, it's an additional performance for the good of the community. We would just also stay for the stories.
I think that this is what too much Pratchett does to you.
this is the week that lasts a century. Imagine posting this and having the Russia coup and the unbearable corpo cage fight discourse happen not a week later. great work as always, y'all!
Plus the whole Titanic debacle, wouldn't be surprised if next episode would be another news special.
1:57 Thank you, Devon. Once again the best member of the crew brings us back to reality.
9:38 Whats even more terrifying is that this isn't even a top 10 train disaster or the worst since 2000.
I'm in southwest Louisiana. The heat here is unseasonably hot.... We're all fucked, aren't we?
The humidity does not help
Not yet. Hurricane season. Get your supplies.😬
Before listening, I am going to bed after having too many drinks when I shouldn't and I've been waiting for an episode so thank you, I hope it's short term karma for being a good boy and catching the last bus home instead of going to the last place open for another one, miss the bus, and having to walk 2,5 hrs to get home.
Not a good sign when the historical engineering disaster podcast has an entire episode on current events
I suppose current events constitute an engineering disaster of historic scale, so it fits really well.
45:20 I am so fucking sick of CZcams censoring words that aren't even profanity or slurs because they refer to unpleasant things. Cable TV isn't this bad.
I love it when Liam reminds me he's an Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties fan, the song he's referencing is Green Like The G Train, Green Like Sea Foam and is an absolute banger
I love living through history
History has halberds
Living through history: in short, a land of contrasts
I have been informed, on good authority, that history ended on 9/11
Same Alice same. My house is a dorma bungalow type thing. So the heat on the tiles turns the ceiling into a sodding radiator. When we hit 40 last year it was 46 in my room and I'm disabled so don't have many options. Winters been mild too. Plus I'm on morphine which wares off at night so I end up sweaty before the heat.
Good thing you made this episode so you have all the news covered for a while. I mean it's not like an equal amount of new bullshit could happen in just the next week right
Oceangate: "hi"
The engineer disaster today was society
we live in (an engineering disaster)
Alice, the word you're looking for at the 30 minute mark is "fatal non-reactivity" - more or less disassociation.
The thing sci-fi and horror gets wrong is it assumes people will see the alien horde or wendigo or space ice tsunami in front of them. Turns out, beyond a certain level of abstraction, complexity, or over a long enough exposure, our brains tend to just filter out threats, specially if the majority of people around us don't react.
Now people all running and screaming, that we react to.
It's really good for hunting megafauna as a group and overcoming instinctual fears that prevent expansion and cultural growth, but the side effect is it doesn't discriminate threats, so it kills a large amount of individuals and wipes out entire groups regularly. This wasn't a problem when we were diasporic and disconnected, but now we're basically one big "group", and that's why it's an extinction-level evolutionary fuckup.
Been keen on getting all the trans people in my city practicing napoleonic infantry drills in a different park every sunday. NBs forming the artillery corps. No success so far.
...Sounds fun. Are we talking trebuchet or cannon?
@@grmpEqweer Cannon, 6/8pdr, maybe a few chonky brass mortars firing fizzing cartoon anarchist B mbs for things that really won't be civil.
All the trans gals in my circles have been getting into HEMA instead. Unfortunately, you can't carry a 17th century Italian rapier without raising some eyebrows
@@flametitan100 Have been doing some cutlass drill with appropritely wieghted training swords, and trying to develop the requisite intestinal fortitude to hit the HEMA salle round here. Have instructors etc been cool or is it just self taught?
Alice Nation? Nope Alice Extended Universe and we are HERE FOR IT! (go Alice)
Worked as a dispatcher and trained new ones, I always told them, that they should stick to the procedure and don't care about delays. Overwriting a stop showing signal is one of the most dangerous thing you can do. You always have to check every switch and if you didn't know, if a train has left the section, give the a written order, to go slow and look out for hazard.
And yes, Nazis have no idea about trains. I recommend "The Most Valuable Asset of the Reich: A History of the German National Railway, Volume 2, 1933-1945" by Mierzejewski.
You know, it doesn't help that here in Ontario our premier decided we couldn't possibly need all that money going to our forest fire fighting budget. So he reallocated it. Probably to his buddies.

Alice quebecois rekindled my spirit energy
Why do people keep making more history? It was supposed to end.
We are stuck in historical purgatory, or as historians call it "The cool zone"
As a treeplanter, I'd LOVE to help get or even potentially be a treeplanter guest on the show. Treeplanting as an industry IN CANADA is a fantastic WTYP episode.
I'm dead serious. Look into it PLEASE.
What if they just made the entire episode out of the news?
Also what if they just made the news more rigid?
First, we must conduct the Socratic method and ask: "What is the news?"
Liam using the powers of news prophecy while shouting "it's a coup" to report on the following week's news as well, that's great value for your podcast dollar!
The cool thing about a Goedendag is that it doesn't have a cutting edge, is shorter and more manageable in close melee, and can be made extremely cheaply using supplies from any hardware store
