Sewer Confessions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode 555 Boy's night in the sewer gets weird fast — Nick cracks a high-potency THC seltzer live on air and things go sideways from there. A dermatologist trip turns into a full skin-diagnosis breakdown, a caller talks drones, wind vortexes, and DJI surveillance paranoia, and the two of them spiral into a debate about witches, estrogen, and courtroom hormones. Somewhere in the chaos there's a mouse in the walls, a possible ghost, and a guy who allegedly drowned in a barrel of LSD. From there i
Robot Rapture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode 554 Nick the Rat comes at you straight from the sewer with a full dose of 2026 dread. Nick breaks down his new side hustle training AI (yes, he's literally getting paid to help the robots learn), reacts to Bill Gates' essay on which jobs might survive the AI takeover, and dives deep (CLANKER TALK!) into the World Humanoid Robot Games where China cleaned house with hundreds of competing bots doing everything from tug-of-war to breakdancing. From there it's a grim tour through a catastroph

Witch Please (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode 552 Welcome back to the sewer, everybody. Tonight Nick goes full conspiracy theorist with a spicy (and completely unhinged) theory: the Salem witch trials never happened the way you think — they were staged BY witches to protect themselves, and they've been quietly running society ever since. Nick breaks down over 20 "pieces of evidence" ranging from sex toys to skincare routines to the women's bathroom line, takes live calls from actual self-proclaimed witches, and somehow ends up talki
Sewer Fungus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode 551 Nick the Rat Radio gets weird fast — Nick recaps meeting Lavish from Behind the Schemes IRL (and scoring a coveted Casio GBX-100), then spirals through a grab bag of chaos: Einstein's double-cousin wife, a fake(?) Perez Hilton meltdown, a tragic NYC e-bike death nobody's explaining properly, and an AI job interview where Nick trash-talks his old boss to a robot. Add in Hank Green's AI research controversy, Eli Roth's AI-assisted flop, and a rescue-dog-turned-meat-market story out of
