What happens when science confirms what we already suspected about the people who are hitting on us? And does size REALLY matter? Turns out... yeah. On this episode we're checking out a Chinese app charging lonely city dwellers a monthly fee just to confirm they're still alive. New research out of Alabama mapping exactly who is flirting for a relationship and who is flirting for personal gain. A study from the University of Western Australia letting us know once and for all, scientifically, does size matter?

What happens when the human drive for self-improvement stops being healthy and starts getting strange? Episode 99 is a descent into the strangest corners of the Internet. From a 47,000 strong online community convinced they can optimise one very specific part of human biology using supplement stacks and biblical food rules. But when optimisation fails to cure a “blah” life, the behaviour turns desperate. We explore why one man risked it all on the interstate just to feel a spark of excitement, and why a TikTok prankster faked his own passing just to see which family members would show up to his funeral. And finally, we explore the psychology of ‘fragile monsters’. New research into serial killers suggests the most dangerous people aren’t cold masterminds at all, but fragile, easily bruised, and terrifyingly reactive. A single slight or a wounded ego can be the catalyst, revealing a chilling link between the need to be seen and the drive to destroy. -- Follow the show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and if you have any weird but wonderful news / stories, email me at [email protected].

What if the stories that kept you up at night as a kid weren’t just stories? In this episode you'll learn what really happened on Lovers' Lane in 1946, why the "check your backseat" warning exists, and how many times hotel guests complained about a smell before someone finally looked under the bed. This is the truth behind the terror, and it's somehow worse than the stories you remember.

Black tank top. White shorts. Sandals. Me: Black linen button up. Denim shorts. Short quaffed to the side dark hair (pomade) We crossed paths in the kitchenware aisle. Both of us drawn to the same set of plates, the same set of cutlery. I watched your hand hover over the box—mine was close, too close. For a moment, our fingers nearly brushed. You took it. You won. I lingered. Followed. Quiet footsteps, close enough to see you, far enough that you couldn’t see me—until the counter. You stood there, and I stood there, too. Watching. I couldn’t help it. You were perfect. -- Missed Connection: Written by an Author Your hair fell like pale silk, the dark roots woven in shadow, betraying their depth. A black tank clung to your shoulders, white shorts struck against the fluorescents—a contrast as sharp as summer light on a blade’s edge. Sandals whispered across the polished floor. And me? A dark figure in linen, buttons loosed for heat and breathing room. Denim frayed where the thighs brushed. My hair, careful but careless—quiffed and neat beneath the sheen of pomade, like a river’s calm edge hiding the pull beneath. The kitchenware aisle. A strange place for fate’s gambits, but there it was, playing its hand. The plates sat immaculate in their glossy cardboard, the cutlery beside it gleamed, silver and righteous. My hand hovered, indecisive, but yours? Yours was deliberate. I saw your fingers approach—graceful, certain. For one breathless instant, they hovered close to mine, like two hesitant flies circling the same web. I thought our skin would meet. It didn’t. You took the box. You won. But I lingered. Ghosted steps, soft against linoleum—quiet enough to remain unseen, close enough to catch the barest curve of your silhouette as you moved. Your presence, magnetic; I followed, not hunting but drawn, as though by some string unseen, yet taut as iron wire. At the counter, you stopped. I stopped. The world contracted to a still frame: the edge of your profile beneath harsh retail lights. The line of your jaw, where sunlight might one day rest. I didn’t mean to watch you—but how could I not? My gaze was a moth, your figure the flame. You were perfect. And I watched. Because what else can you do when perfection, however fleeting, unfolds itself within reach? -- 00:00 - It begins 00:44 - Defending your house Home Alone style 03:32 - Cool David pays us a visit 09:20 - Back to Home Alone defence 12:27 - What’s coming up 15:57 - Film or Fake: Guess The Fake Christmas Movie 43:45 - Writer’s Corner: The Lore of Chill David 48:40 - Craigslist: Missed Connections 1:02:03 - David’s Missed Connection 1:10:38 - The Advisory: Christmas Advice 1:26:44 - Outro 1:29:58 - David rewrites his Missed Connection post
