About this episode

The episode discusses bizarre news stories involving reckless behavior linked to prescription medications and sharks in the Bahamas consuming drugs.

Kevin Crispin from the Behind Beautiful Things Podcast fills in for Brent this week, and the universe rewards him with two gloriously broken news stories. First up, a bizarre and unsettling case involving prescription meds and behavior so reckless it sounds made up. Then it’s off to the Bahamas, where sharks have apparently been sampling the full human experience: cocaine, caffeine, and painkillers. Modern life is poison, the ocean is on drugs, and somehow this is still a comedy podcast!
