Why is Karaoke so popular? | Horse racing - all in the family. | Do animals have accents? 22:39

13d ago22:39

22:39

Karaoke is one of America’s favorite activities. Why are so many people willing to sing (so badly) in public? At the recent running of the Kentucky Derby, the horses had more in common than you’d think. Humans talk slightly differently based on geographic regions. Can the same be said for animals?

Crafting iPhone Alarms. | Can Water Expire? | Should You Be Nice to A.I.? 24:22

27d ago24:22

24:22

You can choose the wake-up sound for your phone's alarm. It took a lot of effort to create all those options. It makes sense on a gallon of milk, but does bottled water really expire? Many of us say “please” and “thank you” to the artificial intelligence systems we interact with. Maybe we should stop. Sources: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/22…

The Birth of the Peep | Curb Your Enthusiasm Saved a Life | David Dies in This One 22:35

1M ago22:35

22:35

Easter season has come and gone and, with it, the slightly stale marshmallow juggernaut known as the peep. But every single peep has something uniquely in common… In a plot straight out of the TV show that made it all happen, an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm literally saved one man’s life. Bad news for Dave. If you’re playing a character with tha…

1M ago25:15

25:15

Scientists have resurrected an ancient, extinct wolf. Is there any reason to be concerned? Minecraft has been one the most popular games in the world for a decade and a half. What’s its secret? A Goofy Movie just turned 30. How did it unexpectedly resonate beyond its, well, goofy leading character to become a beloved cult classic? Sources: https://…

Season 5 (2008) Retrospective | Aqua Teen Hunger Force Deep Dive 57:44

2M ago57:44

57:44

Season 5 of ATHF is a contentious one. Either you love it or you hate it. Or maybe you think it's okay. Or you just, like, sorta like it. Look, I don't know your life story -- but what I DO know is Season 5 is a hell of a lot better than I was expecting it to be. While the season got my panties in a bunch back in 2008, it put a big ol' smile on my …

The March Madness Multiplier Effect | Goosebumps is still going | The Other Burger King 22:56

2M ago22:56

22:56

The NCAA basketball tournament is one of the most significant of all sporting events and, if you consider its impact beyond just the games, that’s an understatement. The children’s horror series Goosebumps has been keeping kids up at night since the 1990s. How does author R.L. Stine, now in his 80s, keep cranking out books? Burger King is a fast-fo…

The all knowing, all drawing Todd Redner graces the podcast to bestow upon us several ATHF tales that I had never once heard before. And that's saying something because I've heard lots of things. Todd's telling us about the m…

The Passing of the Cereal Box Toy. | Ocracoke’s Dialect. | Finding Marco Polo. 22:13

2M ago22:13

22:13

You may remember when buying cereal was as much about the toy inside the box as the cereal. Then it just stopped. There’s a unique island that’s less than 10 miles long, has under 1,000 permanent residents, and speaks its own language. And it’s part of North Carolina. This week, we set sail for Ocrcoke. We all know how to play Marco Polo, but no on…

The Dance Dance Revolution | How Do Astronauts Bathe (or pee..) | The Rise, Fall, And Rise Again of Little Caesars 22:36

2M ago22:36

22:36

It transformed arcades into performance halls by asking people to dance in public. We’ll explore the cultural impact of Dance Dance Revolution. Just because you’re an astronaut doesn’t mean you still don’t need to shower - so how does one do it outside the Earth’s atmosphere? Little Caesars is the go-to meal for social gatherings everywhere. This w…

David Cross Interview | Voice of Happy Time Harry and Bert Banana 51:48

3M ago51:48

51:48

Not only did David Cross teach me it was okay to be named Ronnie, but he put Aqua Teen Hunger Force on the map. Big time. Fresh off his successful stint on Broadway (yes-- THAT Broadway), David takes the next logical step in his career and spends some time on a podcast about a cartoon he was on a few times. I don't know why he did, I advised him no…

When The Preview Lies | (Drunken) Origins of NASCAR | The Most Expensive Typos 23:57

3M ago23:57

23:57

A good movie preview should show just enough to excite us about the upcoming film. What about if the previews show a scene that doesn’t end up in the movie? Professional drivers are very good at what they do - but NASCAR’s origins are as much about spirits as they are about skills. Typos are embarrassing. Sometimes they can be costly. Sources: http…

(Ep. 161 Rebroadcast) The Cost of Free Bread. | The Surgeon General turns his Attention towards … Pac-Man. | Starry Rebrand. 22:45

3M ago22:45

22:45

The basket of bread often appears before you even place your order and is never listed on the final bill. How did restaurants get started giving away free food? The Surgeon General’s recent New York Times op-ed, warning of the potential harm social media can have on young people, provocatively equated internet risks to smoking cigarettes. This isn’…

3M ago24:00

24:00

Kate Winslet owns the record for the longest breathhold in cinematic history. No matter how long you think it is, it’s longer than that. Every parent must face the dreaded question - “Where do babies come from?” How did the poor stork get involved? Weight Watchers has been synonymous with weight loss for decades. That all may be coming to an end. S…

3M ago21:56

21:56

Fast-food chain Rax filed bankruptcy in the early 1990s. Could a short-lived, ill-timed mascot be partly to blame? Your favorite author may have some help, thanks to the world’s best-kept open secret: a ghostwriter. Advances in DNA testing finally tell us who Jack the Ripper really was. Maybe.

The Dumbest Doll of All | AquaDonk Side Pieces Deep Dive 31:02

31:02

The highlander was a documentary and the events happened in real time... not unlike this AquaDonk. 18 (well, really 20) years later, Happy Time Harry is BACK -- not for vengeance, but for his own demise. He wants it, don't worry. It feels good to him. We see what (or rather, what little) Harry has been up to since 2004 (well, 2002). Harry ain't the…

I’m going to Disney World! | Can you say “Super Bowl” in a Super Bowl ad? | The scratch-off lottery ticket effect. 20:45

3M ago20:45

20:45

For decades the Super Bowl MVP has been telling the world they’re going to Disney World. How did it get started? In Super Bowl commercials you rarely hear the words "Super" or "Bowl." Why? Scratch-off lottery tickets are cheap but promise life-changing wealth. They have brought changes, both good and bad. Sources: https://www.mentalfloss.com/articl…

New Place Sleep Woes. | Do Dogs Watch TV? | Will Pluto Ever Become a Planet Again? 23:09

4M ago23:09

23:09

The first night in an unfamiliar place is usually not great for sleep. We look to the research to tell us why. Many dog owners leave the TV on to entertain their pet when they go out. Does the dog actually care? It wasn’t that long ago that Pluto was our 9th planet. How did it lose that status? Could it ever regain its place in our solar system? So…

Grab your Bible and your crystal meth because we're in for a good time! Bible Fruit (totally not a VeggieTales ripoff) is one of the strongest Aqua Teen episodes, and has a heck of a history around it. We're covering the first mention of this idea back in 2004 & the (short lived) legacy it left behind in Soul Quest OverDrive. Other topics discussed…

The Not-So-Great Wizard of Oz. | Guess Who: A Love Story. | Presidential Bible Usage. 21:40

4M ago21:40

21:40

The Wizard of Oz is a beloved cinematic classic. What happened behind the scenes was far from lovely. The board game Guess Who has been a best seller for nearly 45 years. It’s the way that happened you’ll want to tell your friends about at your next social gathering. Today, Donald Trump will be sworn in (for the 2nd time) as President of the United…

Did it take a cartoon mascot to convince the public to include five-digit codes on mailing addresses? When natural disasters strike, most people look to established news outlets for the latest updates. Others look to … Waffle House. First Winnie the Pooh, then Mickey Mouse, and now our favorite sailor man enters the public domain. Why does this kee…

5M ago20:51

20:51

Some reviewers have called the recent remake of the horror classic Nosferatu “the perfect horror film.” However, its source material, a silent film from the 1920s, almost didn’t exist. This week, that complicated history and the story it tells us about the challenges of preserving films from the silent era. We know a product or service can be trade…

Judges surely get hangry in the afternoons, like the rest of us. Does that impact their job? Banana candy, you’ve probably noticed, tastes nothing like banana. That’s intentional. A collection of never-before-heard Michael Jackson songs were found in a storage unit. That doesn’t mean you’ll ever hear them. Sources: https://www.randomactsofmedicine.…

Helium’s Future is Up in the Air | Could We Ever Achieve Utopia? | Creepy Smuggler 21:59

21:59

Helium, that we use to blow up parade floats and birthday balloons, is a uniquely one-of-a-kind element. That’s not necessarily a good thing. What if we lived in a world where we wanted for nothing, where our every wish and need was cared for? Scientists ran an experiment and, as always, things did not go as expected. Ever tried to sneak a drink in…

The film Sideways, about male bonding in wine country, was released in 2004. Twenty years later, it’s still has an impact on one industry. A scientific experiment taught rats to drive. That’s not even the most amazing part. In the 1950s, Roger Bannister did what was previously thought impossible - run a mile in under 4 minutes. Why did multiple run…

The dark web is a largely unregulated version of the internet where many kinds of questionable things go on. Much like Amazon, the dark web even has its own marketplace. The similarities end there.
