ep 80- Broken Heroes, Underwear Drinking, and Decorative Books

from Flight 1080 · host Dave Michaels

Broken Heroes, Underwear Drinking, and Decorative Books Episode 80 of Flight 1080 wanders through America's affection for broken heroes—TV characters who were racist, drunk, abusive, or worse… and somehow still beloved. From there, Billy and Dave drift into words that perfectly describe very specific behaviors, like getting drunk in your underwear with zero plans to go outside, or buying books strictly to look smart on a shelf. Along the way, they stumble into hiraeth, paraprosdokians, and other linguistic oddities, using examples instead of explanations, because that's more fun. Strange, relatable, and slightly unhinged in the best way—this episode rewards curiosity and punishes people who need everything spelled out.
