Send us Fan MailThis episode kicks off with the protests in L.A. and a roast session on folks who claim they “don’t see color” or say “I’ve got Black friends.” We unpack the great chicken wing deception—how a 10-piece order is really just 5 wings split in half. Shane introduces the Platinum Rule (“Do unto others as they would have done unto them”) and we jump into the controversy of trans women in women’s sports. Riley Gaines and Leah Thomas get name-dropped, and we both agree—there’s no reason for male parts in the girls' locker room.We dream about crashing Theo Von’s podcast or bringing him on Vendor Chronicles. Shane drops a gem about Jay Leno never spending his Tonight Show checks, and Q recounts Leilani’s chaotic 13th birthday float trip on the Flint River—featuring collisions, serpents, and a full-blown water rescue. And just when Q thought the excitement was over, poison ivy shows up two days later.To top it off, Q gives some Baton Rouge facts, Shane dives into the deadly legacy of the Isle of Man TT motorcycle race, and we end with a final truth: Aim high. If you miss, you’ll still land in spaceSupport the show
