Welcome to the Back Porch son!

Me and the Professor kick things off with those aggravating First Amendment auditors and the growing culture of professional victims. The professor gets turnt plum sideways and gives his classic angry dad rant with passion! Then we’re headed to Knott County, where a box of donuts has stirred up more controversy than a Baptist preacher at hooters!

We also get into influenza pandemic preparedness, the military’s 90-day survival plans, and the controversy surrounding Kurt Cobain’s death. Plus, with Halloween upon us, we’ve got a little spooky nonsense and an update on Mitch!

And for our Twister Tale, we’ve got a husband and wife who allegedly decided to see if their marriage was indeed bulletproof!

Pull up a chair, folks. This one’s a dandy!

Things are getting plum ridiculous on this episode of BackPorch Twisters! Banjo Barnett and the Professor of Shred, Travis Fields, are back to tackle another batch of bizarre news, questionable decisions, and good old-fashioned hillbilly foolishness!

We kick things off with the unbelievable story of Christa Pike’s botched execution, then head to Russia, where reports of a mysterious illness have folks wondering if the Black Death is trying to make a comeback!

Next, we dive into the increasingly crazy world of artificial intelligence! From AI allegedly inflating medical bills and Bill Gates warning of a billion potential deaths to robots appearing to lose their ever-loving minds and technology that might someday read your thoughts. Is AI the future of mankind or the beginning of the end?

Then it’s time for another chapter of CORNDOG-GATE! New developments surrounding the infamous Black Gold Festival scandal have surfaced, and apparently this story just keeps getting greasier!

Finally, Banjo shares a firsthand experience from a local gas station that sounds like something straight out of a hillbilly sitcom. We’ve got a man with some disturbing handwashing habits, a woman ready to call both the Lord AND the law over a pizza roll, and a blood-covered stranger mourning the mysterious death of Kip!

From death row to killer robots, corn dogs to divine intervention over a pizza roll, this episode has more twists than a mountain road and more foolishness than ought to be legally permitted!

Pull up a chair, grab something cold, and enjoy another trip down the rabbit hole with BackPorch Twisters!

Well folks, after weeks of speculation, seances, and checking for a pulse… MITCH McCONNELL IS ALIVE! We finally got a good look at him, and fellas… Mitch looks like he just woke up from a 200-year nap and somebody told him Social Security was running out.
This week, Banjo Barnett and the Professor of Shred dive into the latest Mitch McConnell update before heading straight down the rabbit hole of the Dead Internet Theory. Is the internet still full of real people… or are we all just arguing with bots, AI-generated garbage, and somebody’s grandma sharing a fake picture of Jesus made out of shrimp?
Then we bring it back home to Eastern Kentucky, where things have been plenty wild on their own. We talk about the recent ruckus at the Letcher County Central football game — because apparently the final whistle wasn’t the only thing bringing the action to a stop. 🏈😂
And then we tackle the scandal rocking the Black Gold Festival…
🌭 CORNDOG-GATE 2026. 🌭
A simple trip to the concession stand turned into the biggest festival controversy since somebody tried to charge five dollars for a bottle of water. We’ll just say this: that corn dog came with more drama than mustard.
We also get into something a little more serious — are festivals and live music dying? People complain the bands are too loud, crowds aren’t what they used to be, and live entertainment seems to be getting pushed further into the background.
Mitch. Bots. Football fights. Corn dogs. Loud music. Just another normal day on the back porch.
