#117 CHEATER, CHEATER, PUMPKIN EATER

How’s Our Driving?🚨 ZOMBIE ANTS, VENOMOUS ANIMALS & TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES NO SENSE 🚨This week on The Pour Choices Show, we go from arguing about cargo vs shipment like two unemployed philosophers… to discovering that zombie fungi exist and can literally control ants like a horror movie written by nature itself.We kick things off with everyday questions that somehow spiral into existential confusion:• Why is it called cargo on a ship but a shipment in a car? • How did the first person who invented a clock even know what time it was? • If you could automate one part of your life, what are you never doing again?Then things get weird.Chris unlocks deep nostalgia by calling someone a “cheater cheater pumpkin eater,” while also casually admitting he watched an employee cheat on a manager test like that’s normal leadership behavior. Meanwhile, one of his plants is now in a full 3-week quarantine because it’s infested with spider mites… because apparently plants can have lockdowns too.Then we get into the stuff you weren’t ready for:• The real-life cordyceps fungus that turns ants into zombies • Why vinyl records somehow make less sense the more you think about them • A full breakdown of the most venomous animals in the worldWe also somehow cover:• Wizard of Oz trivia (you’re welcome, Aunt Su) • Guessing movie characters from concept art • Building the perfect athlete using traits from anyone everAnd just when it couldn’t get more ridiculous… we tell the story of a man who laughed so hard at a missed NFL field goal that it triggered a seizure… which led to doctors discovering a brain tumor that ended up saving his life.We wrap it up with Would You Rather, This Week’s Pour Choices, and AskReddit questions about universally loved foods people secretly hate and the pettiest breakup lines imaginable.If you like comedy podcasts with wild trivia, bizarre science, ridiculous hypotheticals, conversations that go from zombie ants to vinyl records in five minutes, and two guys confidently explaining things they absolutely should’ve Googled first … you’re in the right place.Chapters 00:00 – INTRO4:16 – AUTOMATING YOUR LIFE5:45 – CARGO VS SHIPMENT6:47 – “CHEATER, CHEATER, PUMPKIN EATER”7:48 – HOW DID WE INVENT TIME?8:50 – VINYL RECORDS MAKE NO SENSE12:25 – SPIDER MITES16:31 – CORDYCEPS19:56 – SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW22:06 – IS DEXTERITY WEIRD?25:13 – LEAN WIT IT, ROCK WIT IT28:11 – WIZARD OF OZ TRIVIA35:47 – GUESS THE CHARACTER FROM THE CONCEPT ART41:27 – TOY STORY HOT TAKE46:23 – THE MOST VENOMOUS ANIMALS51:58 – “FRÈRE JACQUES” TRAP REMIX54:27 – BUILD THE PERFECT ATHLETE1:02:43 – LIFESAVING MISSED FIELD GOAL1:05:37 – WOULD YOU RATHER1:08:55 – THIS WEEK’S POUR CHOICES1:10:38 – ASK REDDIT: FOODS PEOPLE HATE1:14:29 – ASK REDDIT: BREAK-UP LINES1:20:23 – HAPPY BIRTHDAY!1:22:13 – THIS DAY IN HISTORY1:23:29 – OUTRO 📣 SUPPORT THE SHOW👍 Like if you learned something you didn’t want to know🔔 Subscribe for weekly chaos📤 Share this with someone who thinks vinyl records make senseCheck Out Our YouTube Channel For More Content!https://www.youtube.com/@pourchoicesshow?sub_confirmation=1Follow us on Socials:Instagram: @PourChoicesShowFacebook: /PourChoicesShowTikTok: @PourChoicesShowX: @PourChoicesShow#ComedyPodcast #PourChoicesShow #WeirdFacts #ScienceFacts #AnimalFacts #PopCulture #AnimalTrivia #AskReddit #DarkHumor #MillennialHumor #NatureIsScary #FunnyConversations #MindBlown #LearnSomethingNewSupport the show
