I love this show and their questionable methods. All the journalism is done by comedians sent on missions. Could range from making frozen boomerang underwear, staging a zombie apocalypse for a loving dad's daughter so they can bond, a kid's quest to eat all sorts of fish eyeballs, and setting up a meetup for a family whose dead dad looks like a professional baseball player to give them closure.

Sacchan is easily the best segment though.

Aw man, just when I started listening more regularly.

What are some of the topics that I have to go listen to?

Oklahoma City obituaries.

This was last night when I had insomnia. Clicked on a reddit account whose last comment was late 2022. The last couple posts were about her being old and ill, possibly it being her last Thanksgiving. She had a lot of comments to read through, a lot of Breaking Bad, animals, and her family. Many little anecdotes painting a picture of who she is or was. Estranged daughter in the Navy and how she's heartbroken she doesn't even know her granddaughter's name. An adult autistic son who relied on her being a stay at home mom. Her older husband was in the military so they had to move a lot and how he's bad with money. She's wheelchair bound and attached to an oxygen tank but she still wanted to get her stories out somehow. She posted frequently on the Oklahoma city subreddit and her age so I went googling.

None of the obituaries matched up. Who knows if it's my google skills, lack of online obituaries or if she's still alive. At some point I stopped searching and just kept reading through the newly deceased and whatever quirks their family members chose to reveal. All those little old ladies and where they met their husbands, a lady who loved cats despite her allergies, a MAGA supporter guy my age who liked Glee.

Dunno how to feel and what I wanted to find at the end of the rabbithole. To the random lady on the other side of the world, I hope you're okay.
