Quantum Aronofsky

Scientists have successfully Quantum-Teleported a message on a beam of light and like, that's insane and everything, but what's more insane is that people still go to Darren Aronofsky's movies even though they only watch them once and never again. Coincidence? We just don't know. We'll have to turn to our old pal SCIENCE!

Super Meh-rio

Nintendo changed Mario's bio on their website, making him officially no longer a plumber, but is that the best you got, 2017? Come get "meh" with Chad, cuz "meh" is a "whatever" state of mind, while taking a warp tunnel back to the history of a certain mustache-rocking Super hero. Also mad ups to comedian Adam Burke's bitching introduction as guest host, way to lay up, and a moment of humble thanks to the late and great Capt. Lou Albano and his Mario rap from the Super Mario Brothers Super Show. Google that. 

Featuring the "Mario Rap" with Lou Albano and  "Overworld" by Koji Kondo (used without permission but with Chad's intense love and respect, mad props).

Rippin' on Jack

Chad forgets what the hell he was talking about because Nazis are assholes and apparently people need to be reminded of that, fuck Nazis btw, and apologies for the language in this episode, it's intense. ANYWAY...a secret diary turns out to be the real damn deal so now we might know the actual identity of Jack the Ripper? That was a rhetorical question, dummy, of COURSE we do now cuz otherwise why the hell would we talking about it?! Oh man... Shit's just tense right now. Sorry for swearing.
