The Grossest Ways People Actually Make Money

from The Worst of the Best Podcast · host Ryan Rebalkin

Ryan and Jason  get into the weirdest, grossest, and most profitable side-hustles on planet Earth. From bottling fresh Canadian air for smog-choked cities, to 22-karat gold toilet paper that costs more than a car, to selling your own poop for $13k a year, to professional funeral criers, used underwear vending machines in Japan, breast-milk black markets, and Etsy necklaces made from real human teeth… nothing is off-limits.The guys debate which bizarre money-maker is actually genius, which ones are lifesavers in disguise, and which one is so shameful they’d never let their Facebook friends know they’re cashing in on it. Spoiler: they both land on the exact same “worst” item (and it’s not the poop).A hilarious, slightly nauseating ride that proves humans will literally buy anything — including the air you’re breathing right now.
