Added 2024-01-31 11:33:50 +0000 UTCWhat I’m about to tell you in this episode will sound like nonsense – shocking, highly flammable nonsense – unless you’re from California
On this episode: we’ll learn all about what it’s like to work at what I’m hoping is the worst utility company anywhere in the Americas, we’ll take a look at some of the most backwards and evil business accounting of all time, and we’ll learn what happens when a sidewalk explodes beneath your feet
There is so much to be frustrated about while listening to today’s episode My heart goes out to the simple tax payers of California, whose backs must bear the lashes of being reliant on one of America’s very worst companies for their life-sustaining electricity – without whom this episode could not be possible.
Celebrity guests include: gas pipe bomber Monserrate Shirley, lightbulb dunce Thomas Edison, groundwater crusader Erin Brockovich, not-Santa, and King Henry the First of England.
And because you listen to this on Patreon, you hear all about:
• the incredible medical weaponry known as the electric eel
• how a fruit company ruled entire countries with an iron fist
• the unlikely corporate destroying vunderkind Erin Brokovich
• an explanation on why you’re worth more to your employer dead than alive
• we debate the ethics of working on the Death Star
• and we also climb into a Hellmouth
