    Ep 268| Elon Backpedals to Trump & We Expose Derek’s Fake Frat!
    Jun 13 2025
    In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, Angela, and 1/4 Black Garrett (his chair is here, his body is not) are joined by guest host Derek Richards for another round of barely contained chaos. Things kick off with Elon Musk’s awkward apology to Donald Trump — an X post so strange it deserves its own investigation. The crew dives into the fallout, the internet’s billionaire beef, and why Musk might be the Forrest Gump of tech scandals. Then it’s on to Walmart-funded protests, tactical leaf blowers at riots, Crocs in prison, and a surprise Maxine Waters cameo that goes exactly how you'd expect. Derek and Dave trade war stories from their budget fraternity days — complete with fake bylaws, a bar called Hog’s Breath, and a doorman who let them in with their moms’ IDs. It’s frat life, but sadder. Somehow this episode also connects etiquette guides, Detroit truck stops, and a water park in Michigan.

    Ep 267 | Los Angeles Is HOT Over ICE Raids
    Jun 11 2025
    In this episode of "Normal World," guest host Derek Richards sits in for Dave Landau, joined by Angela, with 1/4 Black Garrett off for the night, and special guest Matthew Marsden, as they dive into the week’s insanity. ICE raids a Home Depot in L.A., triggering riots, tear gas, Craigslist “security hires,” and Trump deploying 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines. Elon Musk slams Trump’s spending bill before dropping — and deleting — an Epstein accusation. The crew riffs on TSA confusion, WNBA ticket prices, looters hitting sushi joints, rising insurance rates, and ghost-town L.A. neighborhoods. Waymo cars flee. In Trans News, Simone Biles clashes with Riley Gaines over a transgender softball champ, then walks it back. They debate fairness in women’s sports, the fallout for female athletes, and Marsden’s decision to keep his son out of college athletics to avoid ideological pressure. The episode also touches on media gaslighting, broken trust in institutions, and the growing cost of speaking truth in a politically manipulated landscape.

    Ep 266 | Charlie LeDuff Went Looking for Bodies — Found Gretchen Whitmer
    Jun 6 2025
    In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela are joined by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charlie LeDuff and comedian Austin Robertson for an unfiltered ride through political dysfunction, media hypocrisy, and pandemic fallout. LeDuff shares the raw truth about Detroit’s decline, from corrupt mayors and failed transit systems to the mysterious death of Tamara “Strawberry” Green. He details how nursing home deaths were buried under Governor Whitmer’s leadership and how real reporting has been replaced by PR puppets. They grill Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.) on campaign debts, Trump obsession, and the beagle experiments he can’t seem to explain. The crew dives into COVID absurdities, from forced lockdowns and outdoor dining “rules” to kids trapped in screens while governors faked data and partied on boats. LeDuff even recounts riding with a body collector during the peak of the chaos. Merch Go to shop.blazemedia.com/collections/normal-world to shop our merch! Learn more about your ad choices.

    May 30 2025
    In this "Normal World" field episode, Star Trek Garrett (1/4 Black Garrett), Wench (Angela), and King Henry VIII (Gerard Michaels) trade the studio for chain mail, chaos, and adult beverages at the Scarborough Renaissance Festival. They question festival-goers on gorilla combat tactics, favorite kings, ancient hygiene, and anime timelines. All three embark on absurd side quests involving maps, snacks, flirtation, and rogue diplomacy. Angela rolls with the madness while Gerard holds court, dishing out innuendo and royal judgment between flagons. There's a "Star Trek" subplot about blending in with the past, a baseball plate-breaking tournament, debates on monarchy and crime stats, and questions about who deserves to be king for a day.

    May 29 2025
    Trump Slams Putin AND the Media Like a G! | Ep 263In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with riffs on Michael Jordan’s move to broadcasting, Trump’s “very beautiful gift” comment involving Putin, and chaotic visuals featuring bowling balls, bare feet, and mohawks. A demo of Meta’s new AI-powered smart glasses adds a POV twist to the studio, sparking conversation about surveillance, wearable tech, and AI creeping into everyday life. They mock Steven Seagal’s ties to Russia, roast social media clout-chasers, foot pic marketplaces, and bizarre roommate stories involving stolen cars and batarangs. A heated Ghostbusters debate follows (spoiler: the all-female reboot gets torched), along with Halloween ghost-hunting plans — Ouija boards strictly off-limits. Later, they lampoon a New Orleans grandmother arrested for funding her fugitive grandson with Ozempic sales, brainstorm wildly illegal money-smuggling tactics, and wrap with a teaser for tomorrow’s episode.

Crispin returns with chaotic red-carpet commentary, followed by a brutal breakdown of Jennifer Lopez’s declining career, Netflix misfire, and Ben Affleck drama. They riff on Chicago baseball brawls and Delta’s diversity-driven ads featuring a one-armed hiker. A conversation about Emmanuel Macron’s marriage leads to a broader discussion on inappropriate teacher-student relationships and media double standards. Things escalate fast with Aaron Hernandez locker-room stories, including rumors of boundary-crossing behavior, gang affiliations, tragic violence, and college football cover-ups.
