Anthony Todt is one of the creepiest and most self-centered guys I've ever had the misfortune of watching on video. Check out YouTube for a peek.
Interesting listen!
Everyone has a not-literal "pit" in their stomach; it represents the deepest part. In some cases, you get a bad feeling IN the pit. Saying that you've "got a pit in your stomach" is not equal to having a bad feeling.
That area of West Virginia is so beautiful! I've been there several times to trout fish, hike, and camp. Gorgeous mountains!
I love you yall!!!!!! Best storytelling of any podcast!!!!!!
I won't be satisfied till the witch Donna is arrested.
So nobody questioned why/how a radio DJ got into Harvard Business School?
You guys are great.
Josh Bagwell's family is TRASH. He is trash, and comes from a long line of trash. Ew.
I agree with the person who called in about the Denise Amber Lee case, it is such a sad case. The 911 operator who did not follow regulations in passing the info of the witness call basically helped kill her. Had she actually passed on the information properly as her job required, she could have saved Denise's life, since later on several police officers admitted that they had seen the car the lady had called in about but didn't stop it because no one had passed the info on. Basically, that 911 operator should only be allowed to work at a McDonald's, where getting an order wrong only causes a tummy ache at worst. I was horrified to hear she wasn't even reprimanded, and removed herself from that position but not from working in that field. Sorry, that's an important job and someone incapable of doing it should not be be allowed to continue. The officials of that county screwed up and then never accepted responsibility.
Frazier is a POS wife killer who should rot in jail. The police didn't have to mess this up... the proof that Frazier is a killer is simple: no woman trying to get a divorce would walk away from a $250,000 settlement.
Man I just love Jick and Dill. Always great stories and I like their personalities. And then there's the beer, of course.
I'm concerned about how little research these medical personnel had in resuscitation? Seizures are a common response to slow brain cell death. on the other hand, Dr. Turner had no business not contacting the parents right away.

There is a kind of lizard that, if her nesting area is surrounded by too many predators, decides it's easier to eat her own clutch of eggs than try to protect them. That lizard mom thinks Edith has zero parenting skills.
Good morning I truly believe the owl theory.
poor guys. recorded this episode before the news about their sponsor cerebral being under investigation was leaked.
something is up with the audio, the commercials come out of both headphones but the show is not so I know it's not to do with my headphones. There's also this period of long silence at the beginning and then some kind of weird static for a second?
Let's see. Jay is making money hand over fist but the only woman he can get is a stripper who wanted nothing to do with him until he paid for her fertility treatments. What's wrong with this guy? Where's the rest of the story?
