Before listening to AMT423, you have to do a couple of minutes of homework, which is to watch this video.
Then, proceed unto the episode, wherein we discuss:
whether the chicken really crossed the road as a morbid pun
Albert Einstein’s posthumous career as a spokesmodel
Tinkertown, Albuquerque
popcorn machines
Billina in Return to Oz vs bad chicken representation in media
dealing with wedding first dance fears
spice bag cocktails
porn star martinis
infinity pools
the Lautner Edge
dying in New Jersey
build-your-own castles ≠ BDE
the Nakatomi Plaza of the mind
and
a man incubating a duck egg in his underpants – seriously, watch the video.
Also, we must issue content warnings for some chat about hen death (and alcohol, and a blackface minstrel troupe).
