This week, we're diving into the hilariously disastrous Battle of Palmdale, where the U.S. Air Force faced off against a runaway drone in an epic fail that left a trail of chaos and confusion. We’ll dissect how armed jets, equipped with advanced fire control systems, ended up missing their target entirely, leading to more destruction on the ground than in the sky. Spoiler alert: the drones might have had the last laugh. I also share my ongoing saga with my broken wrist, including the unexpected twist of being told to start exercising it just a week after surgery. And yes, there's a tram story this week that you won’t want to miss—filled with the usual mix of annoyance and absurdity. So sit back, relax, unless you're driving, and let's get into the madness of this episode!
