Looking for a laugh? Buckle up as we discover some hilariously absurd children's books available on Amazon, like Brenda's Beaver Needs a Barber and Spank the Monkey Lends a Hand. Picture gifting these outrageous titles to unsuspecting friends with babies, and enjoy the perfect blend of laughter and shock value as we discuss other gems like Put Tony's Nuts in Your Mouth and Lucy's Lyctopus Goes Down South. Sometimes, a good laugh is just as important as reading itself!
Wading into the complex world of drug decriminalization, we ponder the consequences of Oregon's groundbreaking 2020 law that made possession of small amounts of certain drugs a civil violation. How does this law change the landscape for users, sellers, and law enforcement? We also touch on the differences between drug possession and drug use, and examine the implications of criminalizing drug sellers.
Lastly, we chat about life's simple pleasures - smoking, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and hilarious grocery store encounters. Delight in our debate on salami varieties and ideal sandwich toppings, and nod along as we lament the overuse of the term "artisan." Tune in for this whirlwind of laughs, insights, and everything in between!
