In this definitely human-written, not even remotely AI-generated episode of Squirrel Talk, Chris and Mike bring you some deeply educational content—like why the Catholic Church once put a corpse on trial (spoiler: the corpse lost), how a whale explosion rained down calamity on Oregon, and why Australia had to surrender to a bunch of angry emus.

It’s the kind of hard-hitting, factual journalism your high school textbooks were too afraid to cover.

Then—because historical trauma just isn’t relaxing enough—we pivot like pros into Fictional Vacations. Ever wanted to sip blue milk on Tatooine? Get mildly harassed by hobbits in the Shire? Or ride velociraptors in Jurassic Park with full confidence that "they've definitely got the security figured out this time"? We’ve got you. And we’re packing sunscreen.

Basically, this episode is like National Geographic meets fan fiction... with snacks.
