Jimmy Buffett Saved Colin Jost, A $50 Coffin Hotel & A Rooster You Sleep In | Sunburnt Podcast Ep 63

from Sunburnt Podcast w/ Chip Chantry and Thomas O'Brien · host Electric OBrien LLC

Episode 63 of the Sunburnt Podcast with Emmy Award-winning producer Thomas O'Brien and Netflix comedian Chip Chantry. This week the boys uncover the unbelievable true story of how Jimmy Buffett saved Saturday Night Live's Colin Jost from drowning while surfing in Saint Barts — comedy and tropical travel wrapped into one perfect tale. Before that, Chip walks Thomas through some increasingly suspicious childhood summer memories involving his dad, a shed, and a new last name every September. On the travel front, they dig into Hawaii's first $50-a-night capsule hotel just steps from Waikiki Beach (you're basically sleeping in a drawer), a NerdWallet report claiming Americans are being priced out of the Caribbean, and NOAA's forecast for a below-normal 2026 hurricane season. Plus the discovery of a golf-ball-sized blue octopus nearly 6,000 feet below the Galapagos. Fish of the Week is Toby, the Hawaiian white spotted Toby — a tiny pufferfish cousin that produces its own sunscreen, making him the biggest Burnt One we've ever crowned. Then they crack open the Good Book for two world records: Indonesia's staggering 17,508 islands, and the largest building shaped like a chicken — a windowless rooster hotel in the Philippines.
