    #116 Cameron Gets Drunk & Fools No One
    2025/11/12
    Comedian Cameron Gillette shares a story recorded at our live show, where he had to leave a music festival, drunk and high out of his mine, shotgun in an ambulance after his girlfriend passed out in the heat. Cameron meets his girlfriend's mom for the first time at the hospital but isn't sure if he fooled her, or hospital staff, into thinking he was sober. This leads to a theme on how hard it is to fool people when drunk. CJ and Sean share their own stories of times they attempted to fool people when drunk, only for it always fall apart and we detail some studies that prove why drunks can not fool sober people. Check out Cameron's hilarious album for free on youtube- THE BEST SET I WILL EVER HAVE and follow him on IG.

    #115 FBI Gets Drunk & Lies About Poker
    2025/11/05
    An episode on one of our favorite kind of national news stories: cop embellishments. The FBI arrested NBA coaches plus "Italian Mobsters" this week, making some ridiculous claims on how these groups schemed to cheat poker players. We talk about this story along with some of our favorite examples of cop embellishments over the years like the time The Chicago Police accused jack ass home brewers of terrorism, when Boston PD shutdown the entire city over a Cartoon Network advertisement, or the time, out by Sean, where a cop tried to get out of a DUI by calling in fake bar fight. Remember to checkout the live show each Friday in Chicago and CJ Sullivan's other podcast, BOTTOM LINE BOMBS on SGN. And look for the podcast to return to weekly releases now that the crew is done filming our TV pilot.
