Greetings. I’m writing this from 50 years in the future. I just wanted to let those of you in September 2025 know: 50 years from now, everything is the exact same. Like, almost to a T. Technology doesn’t really advance. Pop culture hasn’t evolved. But, society hasn’t collapsed or anything. Most people can still do whatever. It all looks the same as it does right now. So, you know, do with that what you will. Oh wait, there is one key difference. In about 2025ish, a horrible science experiment goes awry and contaminates the entire atmosphere of earth. Nobody died or was disfigured or anything like that. The only thing that happened is that everyone now has a thick, luscious, head of long red hair. Basically, we all have Kathy Griffin’s hair now. Even if you shave it off or try to re-style it, it immediately grows back to the exact length and style Kathy Griffin has. It never gets longer than that though. It’s just stuck like that for everyone. We had to re-think some things about the cultural beauty standard, but you sorta get used to it eventually. That’s the only thing I can think you need to know.
With the benefit of hindsight, I can assure you that this episode of Here’s a Guy goes down in history as the 161st episode of Here’s a Guy. We start off with a listener email for the girls, a preview of Alex’s upcoming wedding, and recap some of the recent pre-wedding mishaps. Then it’s 3 tales of highly unfortunate Guys, featuring an ornithologist who got an odd retribution for his bad decision, a baseball player with a troubled personal life, and a war hero who dealt with a ton of misfortune (and bullets).
