#0319 - My Coworker Framed Me With Milk and I Stole His Chair - 03/02/2026

This episode opens like a man crawling out of the wreckage of a weekend that evaporated in a blink — because IT WAS JUST FRIDAY FIVE MINUTES AGO AND NOW IT’S MONDAY AGAIN. Our brave, exhausted radio warlord drags himself into the studio powered only by resentment and the faint memory of a Sunday nap that somehow erased the entire concept of a weekend. There’s existential dread. There’s PTO envy. There’s a gas light turning on in his car like a personal betrayal. And then — chaos — a BAG OF MILK with his name on it appears in the breakroom fridge like some kind of dairy-based smear campaign. A plastic sack of lactose slander. A crime against humanity. Justice is swift: a chair is kidnapped. Josh’s precious chair disappears into a secret office exile program, and the prank war escalates into Cold War-level psychological operations.

Meanwhile, Netflix drops a March lineup so aggressively mid it sends him spiraling into a Casino rewatch fantasy coma. The internet offers threads about weird childhoods that start quirky and immediately nosedive into trauma speedruns, forcing a strategic retreat before the vibes collapse entirely. Then we pivot to desperation skills — budgeting, emotional regulation, sewing machines — and somehow land in a metalhead Reddit thread where the unthinkable happens: people are NICE about Lady Gaga. No elitist screeching. No gatekeeping. Just compliments. The simulation is glitching. Reality is unstable.

From there we descend into grocery store hatred, self-checkout rage, WinCo overcrowding, and economic doom spirals as gas prices threaten to climb 5–10 cents a day because of wars and vibes and capitalism doing capitalism things. Florida enters the chat, as it always does, with sippy cup meth and a man stuck in mud up to his shoulders for TEN DAYS like a side quest gone horribly wrong. And just when you think society has peaked in absurdity, we discover “Alpine Divorce,” a dating trend where someone LITERALLY abandons their partner in the woods to break up with them — inspired by a short story by Robert Barr. TikTok has weaponized forestry.

But wait. It gets worse. A food vlogger named Haritsu is out here voluntarily consuming rotting tofu, worm rice, and sewage-flavored beef like he’s farming disease achievements for content. Washing mold with soap. Eating it anyway. Claiming enlightenment. Meanwhile our hero just wants to go home and play the new Resident Evil, which is apparently so terrifying people are demanding refunds because horror games… are scary. The audacity. The weakness. The mountain of laundry looms like an unkillable boss fight. Trees are chopped. Fences are built. Meetings threaten fluorescent lighting violence. Somewhere in a drawer, a woman casually finds forgotten Rembrandt etchings worth generational wealth and chooses a museum over immediate financial annihilation. Insanity.

By the end, we have survived Monday through sheer stubbornness. We have not been abandoned in the forest. We have not eaten worm rice. We have not been trapped in mud for ten days. The bar is subterranean, but we cleared it. Another broadcast conquered. Another existential crisis postponed. Roll credits.
