You know what's worse than being in bed for 10 days with a horrible stomach virus? Being in bed for 10 days with a horrible stomach virus, and the second you feel better... you find out that a licensed psychiatrist you criticized has made a clapback video about you, calling you a rage baiter.  And he made sure to tag you so that his audience of incels has flooded your DMs and comment section.  Buckle up, friends, because this one is a RIDE!   PS: Apologies if this episode is rough... your girl is still recovering from dehydration 

Just when you thought it was safe to get onto TikTok, Kendra is back with dare I say her most controversial videos yet. And spoiler... she hasn't changed, and if anything, she is doubling down. 

WARNING: This is not an easy listen. We're discussing the show Monster: The Ed Gein Story.    What happens when men who love horror get their hands on some of the worst true crime cases in history? Well, if these men are Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, you get the Netflix Monster Anthology series. But this season's Ed Gein story is the worst of all. Apparently, Ed Gein's crimes just weren't bad enough... so they had to make it even more disturbing with their own additions.    And you will be shocked how far they were willing to go... 

You asked for it, and it's finally here. And just in time for the spooky season. But as is often the case, real life is much more terrifying than any made-up scary story could ever be. On March 7, 2014 - Malaysian flight MH370 takes off at 12:41 AM. As the plane leaves the runway, no one knew that it would be the last time this plane and its 239 passengers would ever be seen again. What unfolds over the next seven hours is highly disputed, with armchair experts and real experts alike throwing in their thoughts and opinions as to what happened. In this episode, we can't promise any answers, but we will present how the flight unfolded, what the data tells us, and what the current popular theories are. Buckle up friends, this one's a wild ride. 

When it comes to being a couple, bedtime routines can be a hard thing to manage. But this AITA may take the cake. This husband demands something from his wife... something he claims he literally cannot sleep without holding. No, it's not a blankie. It's her boob.    Shout out to the Two Hot Takes Podcast for bringing our attention to this AITA Nightmare! 

We're back to our roots, friends... talking about Nice Guys. And today's subject may just be one of the most notorious Nice Guys I've ever known... and now he has a podcast.    Ned Fulmer was once not just a "nice guy" but a Try Guy. The Try Guys were an uber viral content creation group with 8 million followers, billions of views, and one main character trait - they were nice guys. That is, until Ned was busted doing something... not nice at all.    Three years later, he's back to capitalize on what he did by talking to the person he hurt the most. Buckle up, friends... we're going for a ride. 

We're back for part two with some piping hot thoughts and theories. Make sure to watch Part 1 of this episode because Part 2 is nothing but spoilers! As a reminder, neither host is a trained psychologist, and all suggestions are based solely on our opinion. Okay? Okay.

You all asked for it... literally. In part one of our accidentally two-part series, we're breaking down the case that has shocked the nation... or at least those of us with a Netflix account. It all starts with a small-town high school golden couple, Owen and Lauryn. Little did they know, their young love would end in a 2-year cyberbullying nightmare that would make their entire town suspects, rope in the FBI, and eventually lead to one of the most shocking reveals in recent history. Buckle up babes, this one's a ride! 

It's here... we've made it to the end of the Kendra Saga. We're breaking down why she ACTUALLY left her psychiatrist, the epically horrific way she did it, and why this story needs to be talked about.  Because it's not just about Kendra, it's about everything she represents and the all-too-familiar way she weaponizes her experience. 

We're back for the second, but not last, part of the Kendra Saga. Be sure to check out Part 1 before listening, as we are jumping right in. We're breaking down even darker claims from Kenda, her date with a REAL predator, her fighting words for TikTok netizens, her relationship with AI, and so much more. As always, make sure those belts are securely fastened because this is gonna be a wild ride.    THE PATREON    

Unless you've been living under a rock or you're not chronically online, you've probably heard of Kendra, who is in love with her psychiatrist. From the beginning, Kendra wants to paint you a picture. She's a woman allegedly lured into a predatory relationship with her psychiatrist, who used and abused his power for his own sick pleasure. A terrifying tale, certainly. But as each video from her series comes out, more and more questions arise with less and less proof of her claims. And even more frightening, you begin to see that yes, boundaries were crossed. Yes, situations were made personal and even sexual. But the person behind said unethical behavior seems to be... Kendra herself. Buckle up, friends, this one's a multi-parter. 

The Coast Guard's report on the implosion of the Titan submersible is finally in. We've read the 350+ page report so that you don't have to. Buckle up, because it's worse than you could even imagine. But stay with us because, for the first time in a long time, it does not go the elitist CEO's way. 

WHY DO WE KEEP DEFENDING INDEFENSIBLE MEN!? Melanie Hamlett is back to answer that question. Both hosts made the seemingly TERRIBLE mistake of saying we shouldn't romanticize the relationship of a rockstar who literally tried to kill his wife. However, he is just one of many famous men who have committed atrocious acts and still received a pass. Buckle up as we get back to our feminist roots.    MELANIE HAMLETT'S LINKS Melanie's Patreon https://www.melaniehamlett.com/publications Mel's Tiktok Mel's Youtube  

In a time when the FAA faces funding cuts, massive workforce layoffs, and a shortage of air traffic controllers, hearing about near collisions between massive 747s and B-52 bombers is shockingly not shocking. However, for today's episode, we're focusing on viral stories that occurred inside the plane. And while the plane may be soaring at heights of 30,000 feet, the audacity is cruising even higher. 

In a world of influencers and hustle culture, it's easy to feel like living an "average" life just isn't enough. But one creator sought to change that. He was promoting and celebrating the nine-to-five life. His motto was to normalize the norm. He made people feel seen, and that led to him "seeing" a follower count closing in on 1,000,000. But what happens when the "9-5" creator decides to ditch the life he has promoted and become the very thing he built an audience railing against? You are about to find out. This is the story of the Tiktok creator Hubslife.
