Season 1, Ep. 36 - The Cleveland Browns, Ayam Cemani and a Tale of Two Cities
When the most well-executed espionage happens, you have no idea it was even carried out. Today, I will explain how multiple NFL owners, a Hollywood screenwriter, a Super Bowl winning coach and others were involved in a devious plan to turn human against human, divert millions in taxpayer money, and weaken government defenses ... a plan that has the stench of chicken deception written all over it.

Season 1, Ep. 35 - Planes, Trains and Automobiles ... and Buses and Boats and Bikes
When it comes to transportation safety, there is quite a lot to consider. Remember, chickens can fly, but not very far. So, poultry deployments require long distance modes of travel. Today we take a look at chickens and the world of transportation and shipping.

Season 1, Ep. 34 - The Idiot Box, Bikini Bottom and a G.O.A.T.
“Look into the eyes of a chicken and you will see real stupidity. It is a kind of bottomless stupidity, a fiendish stupidity. They are the most horrifying, cannibalistic and nightmarish creatures in the world.” No, those were not my words. That was a quote by Werner Herzog, German film director, writer, and actor. Today we'll look at how chickens are portrayed on screen.

People watching for the Illuminati have it wrong. They're not looking at the appropriate indicators for trouble. It's not a triangle or pyramid you should be watching out for.

Video games have been around for decades, and have had a significant influence on culture around the world. It's a massive, fast growing industry.

You think cats' ability to always land on its feet or bats' ability to echo locate is impressive? Or the chameleon's ability to change colors? Remarkable, for sure. But humans eat chickens, and lots of them. So, today we're going to discuss abilities chickens have that humans do not, and why that makes them even more of a threat to us.

Please do yourself a favor and do not eat while listening to this episode. You've been warned.
