Happy National Milk Chocolate Day, National Water Park Day, AND National Hepatitis Day — because apparently July 28th is the holiday buffet nobody asked for. Comedians Brad Williams and JB Ball kick things off by accidentally showing up dressed as photo negatives of each other (is it purple? Burgundy? Maroon? The debate nearly tears them apart), give a birthday shoutout to Triple H, and spiral into a hilarious breakdown of why Hollywood actors like Chris Hemsworth and Henry Cavill dehydrate themselves just to look good shirtless. JB's takeaway? Just eat the cookie and take the roids. The boys also read fan mail in "First Class Mail," including an update from Nana Sean and his demolition derby saga, a YouTube commenter who proves duct taping coworkers to poles is shockingly easy, and the most unhinged lie a parent has ever told — involving leprechauns living inside ATMs who accept black licorice as payment. Then things get REALLY good. In "Two Tall Tales," Brad and JB dive into Ghana's incredible tradition of fantasy coffins — custom-built caskets shaped like Coca-Cola bottles, Nike sneakers, fish, shotguns, and... some shapes that are definitely NSFW. They're also joined by special guest and Pulitzer Prize winner Amin Alhassan (ESPN, Meadowlark Media, The Xenophobe Podcast) who weighs in on the coffins, shares a legendary story about accidentally leaving adult film research open on his laptop at an NBA Finals courtside broadcast, and debates whether JB Ball could actually beat Chuck Norris in a real fight. The episode wraps up with a "Petty-Off" — a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader who hired a 14-piece marching band to play "Love Stinks" outside her ex's office for nine straight days vs. an Indian lawyer who fought a 22-year legal battle over being overcharged $0.25 on a train ticket. Plus, Brad finally reveals his lifelong grudge against childhood hockey rival Evan Moore, who went on to play tight end in the NFL.
