#The12HubPodcast

Welcome to Episode 35 of the 12 Hub Podcast! This week, the conversation goes completely off the rails in the best way possible. With Drew filling in for Shaun, no topic is off-limits.

From a hilarious (and surprisingly detailed) debate about which First Lady was the most attractive to the culinary merits of mosquito burgers, this episode is a wild ride. We also get into the nostalgia of 90s streetwear, the golden age of Pizza Hut, and why lobsters are basically just giant sea cockroaches.

In this episode, we cover:

- The decline of modern SNL and comedy.
- Our unfiltered message to Andrew Tate fans and the "manosphere."
- Uncovering Jay Pharaoh's old, cringey battle rap videos.
- The weaponization of the word "woke" in politics.
- Are journalists now just clout-chasers?
- A nostalgia trip: LRG, Ecko, Karmaloop, and classic video games.
