10/01/25 Show 279 : Richer Sounds' Lifetime Warrant Does Not Specify Whose Lifetime

greetings friends, I nearly wasn’t able to complete this week’s episode after being diagnosed with a case of minor men’s whiplash acquired while reading the New York Times’ recent, “Is It OK To Use Your Phone On The Toilet?” article. Weirdly enough, I was not reading said think (?) piece on the toilet but instead an airport monorail that made an abrupt stop, hence the Joel Gertner signature neck brace that I’ll be sporting for the foreseeable future. On the bright side, this does open the doors to the paper of record considering other crucial questions, including but not limited to “can i use the same blanket as the dog?”, “do expiration dates really matter?” and the time honored quandary,”if the Exploited and Anti-Pasti* were both drowning and could only save one, which would it be?” (this is one for The Ethicist) We’ll get into (nearly) all of it on this week’s show. 

 * -trick question, everyone in Anti-Pasti is an accomplished swimmer, so they’d never need saving.
