Costume Chaos

from Nick the Rat Radio

Episode 553 Nick the Rat Radio comes in hot from deep in the sewer — open phone lines, a Modena cancer trial that spirals into CRISPR conspiracy talk, a Spirit Halloween costume crawl gone completely off the rails, and an extended AI-generated bit about MLK's FBI tapes that has to be heard to be believed. Callers drop in on drones, blind soccer players, Twin Peaks, Daemon by Daniel Suarez, and why lawns are secretly a scam — plus a donation segment that turns into a full-blown accusation of dime-based deception against a longtime listener named Tom. As always, it's loosey-goosey, unscripted, and running on value-for-value support from the listeners. Grab a coffee, settle into the muck, and let the sewer take you where it wants to go tonight. Connection is protection.
