Gross Habits That Pay Big Bucks

from The Worst of the Best Podcast · host Ryan Rebalkin

Ryan teams up with his brother Jason for a gut-busting countdown of 10 ways people turn everyday gross habits into cold hard cash, blending medical miracles, sideshow spectacles, and modern gigs that prove humanity's fascination with the nasty pays off. From donating ultra-healthy poop for $13,000 yearly fecal transplants combating C. diff, to force-feeding fast food for $3,500 in weight-gain studies, farting on command like 19th-century French star Le Petomane (who out-earned everyone with ocarina-accompanied blasts), and competitive eating champs like Joey Chestnut scarfing 74 hot dogs for $218,500 prizes, the duo cringes through burping ads, pimple-popping dermatologists earning $345K (plus Dr. Pimple Popper's 6M-sub YouTube empire), DNA spit sales, bathroom scouting apps, regurgitation acts swallowing live fish, and KFC's finger-licking contest.
