​Inside this episode:
​The School District Scam: Carl exposes how a "rich" neighborhood can afford massive sports complexes but can’t figure out air conditioning or decent school lunches.
​The Great Moon Plot: A look back at the time Russia and the USA actually considered nuking the moon. (Spoiler: We’re glad they didn't).
​The Vegetable Manifesto: Opie has had enough. It’s time to stop calling obvious vegetables "fruit" just to satisfy a technicality.
​Flat Earthers & Neighborhood Watches: Dealing with the "fringe" members of society, from people who think the world is a pancake to the heroes (or villains) of the local watch.
​It’s comedy, it’s chaos, and it’s the only place you’ll hear about peanut-throwing incidents and school lunch corruption in the same hour. Hit play and get the real story.
