Overview
Case Blackwell and Kendall rate viewer-submitted internet videos in Amongst the Web, crowning a ‘duka duka’ musical performance the winner at 9.88. Case then debuts a ‘Young Blood’ persona (black beanie, new glasses) for Movies, reviewing trailers for The Brat Pack documentary, Elden Ring DLC, Harold and the Purple Crayon, and a Ren Faire doc. Jeff Ripple delivers a News deep-dive on Napoleon’s penis residing in New Jersey since a 1977 auction. Case hosts The Jo Rogen Experience as dual Joe Rogans answering chat on fasting, Terrence Howard’s math, and Drake. The broadcast closes with a deeply unsettling Munch & Crum where Crum wins the plane count (97), professes brotherly love, and leaves Munch requesting the segment be struck from the record.
