Episode Details

Alright, buckle up, because today’s show is another barn-burner.

Where does that term come from. I’m guessing the obvious, because a barn-burning would cause panic.

Hopefully you recharged the batteries, and got a chance to do things conservatives like to do?

Hang out with family and friends. Listen to music. Outdoor BBQ. Fishing. It’s that time of year

So I’m reading about this thing called a screw worm… and I had to double-check it wasn’t satire. I’m talking full-on, “this has to be a joke headline from some parody site written by a guy fueled by Red Bull and resentment.” But no. Real organism. Real nightmare.

This creature doesn’t just bite you and move on like a polite mosquito with a schedule. No, no. The screw worm is an overachiever. It lays eggs in open wounds, in your nose, your eyes, your ears… basically anywhere your body forgot to install a security system. And then those eggs hatch into larvae that eat living tissue. Not dead tissue. Not leftovers. You. While you’re still using the body.

Now tell me that doesn’t sound like it was brainstormed at a political strategy meeting.

Because the only real difference I can find is this: the insect version goes after your flesh… the political version goes after your wallet and your mind. One hollows out your body, the other hollows out your bank account and convinces you it’s “for your own good.” One leaves you with a wound, the other leaves you applauding while they pick your pocket.

And here’s the kicker: at least the biological screw worm doesn’t hold a press conference afterward telling you how lucky you are to be eaten.
