📝 Show Notes

Melissa’s hair may be short, but her opinions are full volume. From a menopausal hat crisis to a mother-in-law quoting scripture about baldness, Melissa’s week starts with family sass and a scalp-massage hair growth plan.

Then it’s on to the hot takes: and the wild world of AI outrage. Melissa warns the 65-plus crowd: check before you comment—bots are everywhere!

David adds the night’s biggest laugh with the story of a Turkish man who literally joined his own search party, and together the Radkes dish on the Emmy Awards—Nate Bargatze’s family-friendly hosting, Stephen Colbert’s send-off, and the viral “Let Me Out” Easter egg from Severance.

They wrap with a raucous round of “Would You Rather,” from honey-covered bodies to attic strangers. It’s From Hot Hair to Hot Takes—the Radkes at their funniest.
