In this episode, Jay tells Mitch about a protein folding disease that's probably in your body right now and only growing stronger. Its like the sad, dangerous, adult-onset puberty you never wanted.

While this episode has nothing to do with puberty, it does talk about infectious diseases and briefly cannibalism (I'm honestly blown away how often I have to warn about cannibalism with this show).

If you want to learn more about Proteinopathy, check out the Wikipedia page. If you want to know why Mitch has a bench warrant issued by a federal judge in Minnesota, you can click here. It "allegedly" has something to do with him running an illegal underground fight ring pitting teens against drug dealers in what critics are calling "a fresh take on the circus, but with real consequences."

Thanks for listening.

I should be clear, it wasn't an official eating contest, more like a "did you see the SWAT team had to drag a guy out of Krogers" type of thing. Its just Mitch, a GoPro, and 17 raw lobsters, shell and all. What a day.

Enjoy the episode.
