I told you I print out a lot of stuff, and then I never get to it on the show.

And this is an example of one of those things that I've printed out and never got to on the show. It is the 10 radiest cities in the U.S. Now, what does this mean? Orkin put out this annual list of the 50 radiest cities of 2025. And according to the pest control company, Chicago's decade-long roeating. rain has come to an end. So if Chicago is not the number one ratiest city in the country. Let me play a couple of commercials and we'll get into this and some other stuff.

So I don't know how they determine this. I guess they determine this just based on like, hey, they have a ton of rats in this city. Like I don't know how they do this. Actually, let's see here. Orkin determines their list based on the number of new rodent treatments they've handled at residences between September 2024 and September 2025.

And according to this list, the number one ratiest city in the country is Los Angeles. So, Los Angeles has the most rats, new rat treatments, new rodent treatments from September 24

to September 2025, followed by Chicago, New York, San Francisco. Like, doesn't it make sense that the cities with the most rats would be the largest cities, right? Like Los Angeles is Market 1. You've got Market 2. Sorry, New York is number 1. L.A. is number 2.

Chicago is number 3. San Francisco is number 4. I believe these are the four largest cities in the country. So it makes sense that they would have the most new rat kid. Why is this a story? Why is it a story? It'd be a story if, like, somebody that wasn't in one of the top four cities was one of the top four rat places. Well, I guess here's one.

Hartford is number five. So Hartford, Connecticut. Hartford must be a real shithole. I've never been to Hartford, but I get the vibe that it's a dump. D.C. is number six on this list. Let's see. So, D.C. is number six. Detroit, number seven, Philadelphia, number eight, Minneapolis, number nine.

Denver, I'm kind of surprised by that. Now, I don't know what makes these cities have the most rats, what causes rats to be there. But Denver, I'm kind of surprised that Denver. Denver's a cool place, man, in Minneapolis. But, like, it makes sense that cities that are gigantic have more rats. Doesn't that make sense? I've lived in how many of these ratty cities? Detroit and Philadelphia.

I've lived in those two and nowhere else. Usually when I see top 10 lists like this, they're for negative things, like top 10 negative lists. I've lived in like half the places or I've worked on the radio and half the places. Like in the 10 most dangerous cities in the country, right? Like, if you start looking at the list of the 10 most dangerous cities, Memphis, number one, live there. St. Louis, number three, lived there. Detroit, Michigan, currently live there.

New Orleans was on the radio there, basically lived there. Baton Rouge, Louisiana, live there. So I've lived in some dangerous places. But then you also see these lists. You'll get the list for, like, the cities with the highest crime rates. Generally speaking, I've lived or worked in those. new AIDS and STD cases, those are usually the cities that I've lived in as well. You'll see like New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Philadelphia.

Yeah, so I've lived in some real, I've done some winning in my life, have I not? Some real winning. But, look, and I've enjoyed all these places I've lived. So what if there's new AIDS cases and so what? Who cares? I like these places. But ratty cities is what that list was. Doing some lists for them.

I'm just going through some of the show prep sites stuff that I didn't use. I print out a lot of stuff from these show prep websites that are just a hub for a bunch of links and some original comedy. But I'm never going to use the original comedy that these people post. But like you'll get some links and there's some decent stuff. I try to avoid using a ton of them. That's why I print a lot of them out and generally speaking never get to them. Like this one. Here's one.

Tattoo regret rates. According to a new study in the U.S., or according to a new study, the U.S. city with the highest rate of tattoo regret is Orlando, Florida. Researchers analyze search data from 177 cities focusing on terms like tattoo removal and tattoo cover up near me and put together a ranking per capita. Would you like to know the top 50 cities for tattoo cover up and tattoo removal? regret of getting tattoos. Orlando, Florida is one, Atlanta, 2, Salt Lake 3, Cleveland 4, and Miami 5. I think the one that makes the most sense in there would be Salt Lake, right? Because you've got a bunch of Mormons in Salt Lake.

They probably go out and, like, get tattoos and then instantly regret them because they're getting judged or they're going to be damned by their parents or something like that. So they're like, you know what? I'm going to instantly regret this. and I'm going to ride with getting no tattoos. Get the tattoos removed. So Salt Lake City makes some sense. Another one, Chitaki mushrooms used in memory chips.

Researchers at Ohio State University have built working computer memory chips using Shataki mushrooms. Researchers figured out a way to create biodegradable low-cost circuits out of the inner fibers of mushrooms that are surprisingly efficient. switching signals nearly 6,000 times per second with 90% accuracy. While there's still a lot of work to be done before they can call or can all be turned into a practical storage device, it's a huge breakthrough that could result in lower power cost and fewer gadgets getting tossed into the landfill. Look, I don't know if that shit's ever going to work or not, but I'm fascinated. I'm intrigued by what people do, like what all these scientists and different people

try to figure out. Shataki mushrooms. Mushrooms are gross, though. I don't like to eat mushrooms. I find them to be disgusting. Other stuff. Let's see. Don't trust AI when it comes to Grand Theft Auto.

We've all seen AI make some outrageous and untrue claims, and when it comes to Grand Theft Auto 6, you shouldn't believe a single word any AI tells you. YouTuber Jeffrey Phillips proved that when he got Google AI to believe that GTA6 had a twerk button. Phillips posted that the game would have a twerk button and a fake subreddit. Once that started getting picked up by Google, he planted posts about it across social media,

even creating a Photoshopped controller layout image showing the L3 button with hold to twerk. Eventually, Google's AI said, while some Reddit posts mentioned the feature as confirmed, these seem to be based on player speculation. One of the cited sources came directly from Phillips' own Reddit comment. Phillips said the lesson to be learned is that your jobs are safe now, everybody, AI legally can't take your job now that I've outsmarted it. Solid work on that dude's part, though. It's believable.

Like, I kept seeing, like, different AI things pop up for GTA. And, like, it's kind of believable. I was watching the scene that's allegedly in GTA where some guys just bending a chick over a picnic table. And I'm like, is this shit real? As it turns out, it's probably not real. But it's believable. I mean, GTA has always been kind of dirty and risque and raunchy, like you'd pick up hookers and bang them in the back of a car, you know, all that shit.

So, I mean, it's believable. If someone said to me, like, hey, like, do you buy this? Do you believe that this is something that could be the case? I'd be like, sure. Why not? Like, could I believe a scenario wearing Grand Theft Auto, some guys just plowing some chick in the, in a, you know, over a picnic table in Grand Theft Auto, yes. Could I believe there's a twerk button?

Yes. So I get it. Other stuff. Again, I'm just, this is stuff I did not get to on the show because I, I did not deem it, not even worthy, but sometimes things will take off. Sometimes you ever know which direction of show is going to go, right? So you just got to go with where it goes. On this day, on October 29th, now here's a question.

They throw trivia questions on here. On this day, in what year did LeBron James make his NBA debut at the Cleveland Cavaliers? On October 29th of what year? Well, the correct answer is easy. That's 2003. Then they also throw in questions that you can ask on the air, like, Guys, what's the creepiest thing a woman has ever said or done to you? It comes from Reddit.

Some responses on the first date asked if I had life insurance. That is pretty creepy. Filmed me without my consent the first time we fooled around. Although that's kind of attractive. She's a bit of a voyeur. Not really a voyeur, I guess, because she's not spying on you. Went through my phone and contacted some of my past girlfriends. After having sex, she told me I looked and reminded her of her dad.

told me that when she went to a witch doctor or something and cast a spell on me to get a date. Unironically told me she wanted to drink my blood. I was talking to a buddy once who was like, apparently just like plowing some chick in a bathroom, like in his house, you know, they're banging. And he puts his hand on the counter while they're banging, like on the sink. And he cuts his hand on his razor blade, like his razor's on the counter. And he puts his hand there and actually cuts his hand. and instead of stopping they just keep going at it and she just starts drinking the blood out of his hand

now that's hot that's someone committed to bonin uh let's see other stuff okay so there's that let's see what we have here man agrees to pay cat support after divorce in turkey a man named berga b has agreed to pay cat support as part of a divorce decree he and esgi b parted way citing severe and capa and compatibility and a breakdown on the foundation of their marriage. As part of the separation agreement, Berga agreed to pay his ex $240 every three months for up to 10 years to tend to the everyday needs of their two cats. The cats were then turned over to her care. Fuck that.

Go fight for those cats. Well, first of all, don't fight for the cats because cats are terrible. And there's no reason for you to want cats because of the fact that cats are terrible. But if you're going to be someone that likes cats, fight for your damn cats. Don't give $240 bucks every three months to your ex-old lady to take care of the cats. Let her figure it out. She wins custody. She should have to take care of the fucking cats.

You shouldn't be physically responsible to those cats. Do you get joint custody? Do you get to see the cats? See, I have questions about this. I'd like to know if you get to like, you know, once a weekend or like, you know, every other weekend get the cats, take them out, you know, for walks and shit. Let them come over to your house and judge you. Do you get to do that? woman is shocked to see ultrasound photo resembles her dog i actually saw this picture and it does

this woman's baby ultrasound looks like her dog it's nuts employees bothered by workplace wellness initiatives oh i agree with this you might have noticed an increase in workplace wellness initiatives happening at your job employers are increasingly offering helpful perks like free yoga classes, daily step reminders, mindfulness tips, and other benefits designed to inspire a healthier lifestyle for employees. While at the same time lowering the corporate health care costs, well, there you go. These programs are causing a backlash among some employees, however. Some point out that they're at work, to work, not to be lectured, guilted, or life coached by

people who aren't their doctors or therapists that they find insulting and intrusive. I agree. Get me cheap insurance and stop telling me how to live my life. Oh, look, by the way, I read a story the other day that, like, your life can be saved basically by taking 400 steps a day. Like, you're almost, like, you're, like, the estimate is that you live, like, four years longer or something like that if you get, uh, or like you lived a lot longer if you got like 400, I say 400, 4,000 steps a day. If that's the case, I'm going to live for fucking ever. I get like 25,000 steps a day with my dog. So I am immortal.

Just so you guys know, I cannot be killed. cops are looking for a couple who broke into a restaurant and had sex. In Scottsdale, Arizona, police are looking for a couple suspected of breaking into a restaurant and having a romantic moment while inside. I wonder where it was. Was it like an abenigans? Boy, if you could pick a restaurant to bang in, one restaurant, what would it be? I think I'd want to do it in like a dirty, raunchy place.

Like, you'd want to bang a hooters chick in a dirty hooters. Like, that would be hot. Like, I wouldn't break into a restaurant just to have sex. like, hey, here we go. Let's get nuts. We're going to break into, you know, TGI Fridays. You know, thank God it's fucking, and we're going to go at it. Like, I don't think that's going to happen. Police say the Moncheree restaurant was broken into it close to 4 a.m. on Saturday. The man and the woman could be seen in security camera footage, helping themselves to some cash, some liquor, and the house phone. So it's like they stole the phone, too.

We're stealing a phone. We're stealing cash. We're stealing liquor. Interesting, the video shows the couple having their way with each other on the restaurant's patio before the break-in. Inside a rose display, many customers use for photos. So there's that. Good for them. Look, that's probably hot. You're like Bonnie and Clyde. You're breaking into shit.

You're stealing people's shit. Then you're banging it out in the place you're stealing shit. That sounds like a sexy scenario. I'm not against that at all. I'm on their side. You know what? Good for you. Go out there and bone. Bone. If you're going to steal shit, you might as well bone. I bet that's an aphrodisiag. Unless you're like someone who's just really nervous all the time. It's like, shit, we got to get out of here. But if you're breaking into a place and stealing shit from a restaurant, you're probably not someone that's super nervous about shit anyway. So you're probably like, let's fucking go. I'm not nervous at all. Let's bang it out. That'd be fun, though. Public bang. Me and Jelly banged in public once in a pool. And where was that?

That was in Miami. And it was in a pool that we didn't realize was a glass bottomed and side pool so people can just see out into the streets of Miami. That's pretty wild to think that we did that. Now that I think about it, and that was like 12, 13 years ago, that's pretty fucking crazy. Boy, we were wild. Pool banging. Like, it was one thing that banging dad's pool and get caught. That is what it is.

And then we did some pool banging in Miami, like some real. heathens. Anyway, more to come.
