In this episode, “Home Dentistry,” I’m serving up some truly bizarre news stories that will leave you shaking your head, laughing out loud, and maybe questioning humanity’s collective decision-making skills.

I kick things off with a shocking Florida child abuse case where a woman was accused of giving a four-year-old Xanax and Nyquil, leaving him bruised and unconscious. From there, we travel to India, where a family lived with a mummified corpse for over a year, convinced their loved one was just in a coma. You’ll hear about a centuries-old Chinese kung fu tradition that involves smashing sensitive body parts with a steel-tipped log—yes, “iron crotch” martial arts is very real.

Things only get stranger as I cover a man who smuggled Burmese pythons in his pants crossing the U.S.-Canada border, a woman in Texas busted for narcotics while wearing a D.A.R.E. “Keep Kids Off Drugs” shirt, and two Iowa teens accused of murdering their teacher over poor grades. And if you think scams are obvious, think again: a Japanese woman paid $30,000 to help her online boyfriend—who claimed to be a Russian astronaut—“return to Earth.”

You’ll cringe hearing about a British man forced to pull out his own teeth for over a decade because he couldn’t get a dentist appointment, and you won’t believe the courage (or luck) of an eight-year-old Indian boy who bit a cobra to death after it attacked him. A Minnesota worksite accident involving a severed leg, a Florida man demanding immunity for carrying meth because the FBI supposedly said it was fine, and a drunken Walmart scooter joyride that ended in arrest prove that reality is often stranger than fiction. Finally, we wrap up with a family brawl in Florida over mislabeled Chinese takeout containers that escalated into a full-on chokehold and arrests.

If you love strange news podcasts, true weird crime stories, outrageous Florida man headlines, and the kind of oddball happenings you won’t hear anywhere else, this episode is packed with everything you need. From home dentistry disasters to space romance scams, it’s a hilarious, jaw-dropping ride through the bizarre side of our world.
