In this episode, Rivers and Sam are hangin' out at Disgraceland with one of our all-time favorite guests, comedian Ed Greer! We kick this one off by talking about the brand new, hilarious Gettysburg Address that was recently delivered by a certain ex-president. We also talk about the rapping son of 80s icon Cyndi Lauper and the chaos he's currently unleashing on the streets of New York's financial district. We test out an energy drink made by another rich white rapping child from the tri-state area. We also discuss a Moldovan sword swallower who's creating controversy in the evangelical world and the B-52's "Love Shack" is our JAM OF THE WEEK! Tune in now, y'all!

LA witnesses the largest heist in its history over Easter. South Korean companies seek to combat population collapse by paying families to get pregnant. A multi-decade identity theft case finally comes to light. Drug dealers in Sierra Leone are robbing graves to make drugs from human bones. Zombie cicadas, Norfolk Southern and more in this week's strange news segment.
In the first part of the show, we talk about a ridiculous new paper funded by OpenAI that aims to reconcile all human values by combining them into a “moral graph” to train Socratic LLM through reinforcement learning by people “voting on wisdom upgrades.” Then we dig into the latest reporting on yet more AI systems that Israel is using to intensify and justify its genocide in Gaza. This time through generating kill lists and tracking when targets are at home with their family before bombing them. The horrors of reality—not some speculative potentiality, but what already exists—are truly beyond words.

Do trees have feelings? How do they talk? Which trees can you use to make syrup? Do bananas really grow on trees? Possibly the world's most enthusiastic tree expert, J. Casey Clapp, explains what makes coastal redwoods the coolest trees, how roots communicate with each other, and why a tree is like a cup of tea. Plus: bonus guest appearance by our friends (and the trees’), fungi.
