  • Chasing Comedy - Episode 35: Cruise Ships, Dead Fish & Anything and Everything
    Aug 8 2025

    In this episode of Chasing Comedy, Brian Scott McFadden and Dustin Chafin dive into cruise ship chaos, dark family stories, and the emotional toll of being funny through pain. Dustin shares his wild excursion through a fake jungle in Mexico—complete with dead fish, fake monkeys, and sewage leaks—while another reflects on caring for a dying father and somehow finding humor in the moment.

    They also unpack supplement obsession (St. John’s Wort, Alpha Brain, Adderall), rage issues, and the mysterious “Anything and Everything” shoplifter who may be the most enlightened thief of all time.

    From paddleboarding through fish guts to Gilligan’s Island with Oprah and Skippy from Family Ties—this one’s messy, deep, and hilarious.
