Game 1 - Have I Got Bad News For You Story 1 - Study Shows Dogs Can Learn Words Simply By Eavesdropping https://www.npr.org/2026/01/08/nx-s1-5667604/genius-dogs-learn-new-words-eavesdropping Story 2 - Japanese Railway Station Hires Cat To Be Station Master - For The Third Time https://www.jalopnik.com/2071409/japanese-train-station-third-cat-stationmaster/ Story 3 - Rats Successfully Trained to Shoot Demons in "Doom" https://futurism.com/future-society/rats-trained-shoot-demons-doom Game 2 - Pitch Me Baby One More Time Inspired by Game 1 and by films like Milo and Otis and Air Bud (and the state of America inducing daily despair), I want you to pitch me a feel-good story about an animal doing something amazing. This can be a book, TV show, movie, or video game, and the only limitation is that it can't have been done before. So no Air Bud 2, but if you want a dog playing hockey, Ice Bud is on the table. (Weirdly, the people who did Air Bud did a hockey movie called MVP: Most Valuable Primate instead starring a chimp.) Best pitch wins the game and gets two episode points.Game 3 - Just Correlate Our favorite game of finding hidden connections is back! Our players will choose keyboard keys, CTRL, ALT, DEL, INSERT, HOME, and END - behind each one is a set of four clues, each has something in common. If they figure it out after one clue, 5 points, after two clues, 3 points, after three, 2 points, and if they need all four, 1 point. The player with the most points after all six keys have been chosen wins the game and gets three episode points.Promos Grab'em In The Brisket & Married with TVProudly Sponsored by Peace, Love, & Budhttps://www.plbud.com/Shoutouts to our Patrons; Mexi, Justin B, Kristin F ,Jeramey F ,Flaose, Todd, Jim, Flaos, Bridget F., David M., Dave A, Erin S, Donna/Colin Maggs,The GateLeapers, Kacey S., William M., Crunchie, DJ Xanthus, Crystal D., Jeff S, Gina W., 8Bit, Matt.Founding Members of @OddPodsMedia https://www.patreon.com/BFYTWShow Music by @KeroseneLetter and @Mexigun Our Merch Available by contacting us.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyJG-PDn6su32Et_eSiC6RQA MidnightSmoke ProductionShow #303 Worst Timeline Gets Worsehttps://bfytwpod.com/?p=1633
