Episode Details

Frank and Jay reconvene a week after the Spring Fling to debrief the prime rib, the perfectly timed thunderstorm, and the InBody machine that exposed Frank's visceral fat number. Jay walks through why subcutaneous fat is largely cosmetic, why visceral fat is the real metabolic concern, and why intermittent fasting plus protein pacing beats simple caloric restriction.

Then the brain section gets weird. Listener emails arrive about Foreign Accent Syndrome: a 70 year old American who started speaking with a Norwegian accent before dying of a brain tumor, a Massachusetts stroke patient who woke up sounding like she was from Oslo. Frank pulls up Cotard's, the walking corpse syndrome where the sufferer is unshakably convinced they are dead and putrefying, and Capgras, where loved ones become identical imposters. A coma survivor writes in about six weeks of demons in his peripheral vision after a ten day medically induced blackout.

The second hour pivots to the America 250 concert collapse. Brett Michaels, Martina McBride, Milli Vanilli, and the Commodores pulled out, so Frank and Jay reopen the lines and book a better lineup live on air, decade by decade, with the help of callers.
