Diddy Trial and Celebrity Involvement

The conversation quickly shifts to the high-profile Diddy trial, where Zac, Brett, and Akeem discuss the complexities of jury selection and the potential involvement of celebrities as witnesses. A particular point of interest is the mention of Mike Myers, the Canadian actor and comedian famous for his role as Austin Powers, being named as a potential witness due to an inside joke in the movie.

• [04:37] Brett Raybould: "Oh, it's happening."

• [06:07] Zach Amico: "They also named some potential witnesses and one on there. And Shan, you got to find out how this happened. One of the possible people that might be calling this trial, Canadian legend, actor, comedian Mike Myers."

The trio humorously speculates about other celebrities who might become entangled in the trial, touching on figures like J.Lo and Usher, and delves into discussions about systemic racism within the judicial system.

• [12:07] Akeem Woods: "Love to see us."

• [51:49] Akeem Woods: "Listen, I'm sorry, I don't know y'all celebrities, all right?"

Animal News Segment: Raccoon Caught with Meth Pipe

Transitioning to lighter (and stranger) topics, the guests discuss a bizarre news story where police found a pet raccoon holding a meth pipe during a traffic stop in Ohio. The conversation explores the legality of owning raccoons, the challenges of rabies testing in animals, and humorous anecdotes about pets accidentally getting high.

• [23:17] Akeem Woods: "And they arrested him."

• [24:03] Brett Raybould: "I don't want him to have that."

• [31:00] Shannon: "Yes, in humans, you can test for it. You can test the saliva, spinal fluid, yada, yada, yada."

Zac shares a personal story about his cat, Gus, accidentally ingesting a meth-laden brownie, leading to comical yet concerning behavior over the next day or two.

• [32:05] Zach Amico: "And now, my cat Fred was getting into pot brownies and got high for a day or two."

Couple Finds Scary Note in New Home

Another segment covers a couple who discover a mysterious and frightening note hidden in their new home, prompting concerns and discussions about the potential meanings behind the cryptic numbers found alongside the warning to "Don't look under the floor."

• [58:03] Zach Amico: "Don't look under the floor. That's horrifying."

• [59:16] Akeem Woods: "It's the biggest sets of flex to play blanks to prank somebody."

The guests brainstorm possible interpretations, ranging from simple pranks to more sinister implications, all while maintaining their signature humor.

Personal Anecdotes: Uncle Angelo's Potato Prank

Zac reminisces about a long-term prank his Uncle Angelo pulled, leaving a potato encased in plastic under a stove. Over ten years, vines grew around it, creating a quirky and enduring mystery for Zac's family.

• [60:25] Zach Amico: "I put this potato here the day you moved in... 10 years of vines of potato stuff."

Miscellaneous Discussions: Bears, Wrestlers, and Contortion

The episode also features offbeat discussions about bears as tax trainers—a likely humorous metaphor or inside joke—and the physical toll of wrestling, including concussions and their impact on mental health.

• [61:24] Brett Raybould: "What if there's no article, no video? We just have to talk."

• [56:29] Zach Amico: "Concussion, C-T-E is like what you get from too many..."
