If your final words are "do I look like a deer to you?" as you attempt to pet an apex predator as though it is a house cat, you deserve the Darwin Award, not just for the week, but for the year.
Also, it's Arkansawyer! That's what they call themselves.
In the U. S., antifreeze poisoning was a problem at one time. Kids were finding it, opening it, and drinking it. The manufacturers now put something in it to make it taste bad. They also use those kid proof caps.
To be fair, I don't vote for stories that include animals by default, but approaching an animal as big and intimidating as a buffalo despite all warnings is quite Darwin.... but it's nice to be included in the discussion 😃
one homicide, one depressing, tragic elder-death story, and 2 Darwin stories 😅
Note to self: do not listen to this podcast while eating 🦶🤮
probably the most unlikable group of aad sacks I've ever heard on a podcast. great idea, terrible execution.
Some levity when we need it most!
I love these guys and I love this show!
