Fresh off a week of turkey feasts and leftover sandwiches, the guys dive into jaw-dropping stories that will make you laugh, cringe, and maybe rethink your holiday traditions. From a massive shark named Contender lurking off the Atlantic coast to a Thanksgiving turkey fight that escalated into a parking lot shootout, this episode proves truth is stranger than fiction.

You’ll also hear about:
  • Space drama revisited: The astronaut divorce scandal that went orbital—and why the real culprit wasn’t who we thought.
  • Holiday chaos: Why two men ended up behind bars over a supermarket turkey.
  • Giving back made easy: How one Oklahoma town is swapping fines for food donations—and why that matters.
  • Decluttering wisdom: The eight things you should never store in your attic or garage (hint: your old tech gear is doomed).

Yeah, that's terrifying, that's terrifying.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
All right, this is a story.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
I'm gonna follow up on one we did on the radio.
I know you guys did it too. Uh Summer Warden
if you don't recognize that name. Summer was the woman
who was the ex wife of the astronaut who was
on the Space Shuttle. Remember they got a divorce while
she was up in the Space Shuttle and Summer was
down here.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Well, she claimed that while the girl was up in
the Space Shuttle, she cleaned out the checking account online,
and the girl said, no, I was seeing what Summer
was doing while I was in the space station because
she was blowing cash like or wasn't no tomorrow anyway.
Summer has now admitted that the woman did, in fact

(03:23):
just check the account. She did not take any money out,
and Summer took all the money out. They ended up divorced.
She's going to go to prison for stealing their money
and making that claim. This all happened in twenty nineteen,
but I remember we covered this on the air because
this woman was crazy and.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
Some of these some of these asked me, I think
you've got to be a little crazy in the first
place to commit to spending a year on the space
station or even going to space, because you remember there
was that other story with the astronauts where the woman
put an adult diaper on so she could drive nonstar

(04:03):
remember that.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Yeah, she was an actual astronaut.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
Yeah, she was gonna beat the hell out of the
the other girl. Yeah, I think she was going to
attack the wife.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, so, I mean she was crazier in a shithouse
rat that one no Longe right there, So imagine me.
It's stuck in the space station with that with that nut.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Not fun.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
I don't know why this reminds me of this joke.
I just thought about this. Uh there's a guy.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
He comes home and he goes, hey could I He
sits down in front of the TV, and uh, he says.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
Hey, could I get a beer before it starts?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
And so she brings him a beer and he's drinking
his beer and he goes, hey, could I get one
more beer before it starts? And and so she brings
him a second beer and he's about halfway done with it,
and she comes up and goes, are you just gonna
sit on your ass and watch football all night?

Speaker 1 (04:56):
And he goes, and now it starts.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Now it starts there it is. That's okay, that's good.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
That's good. Like that.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Married guys are loving women blinkers and he married women
listening to this show.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Out there today dealing with like they're just waiting for
it to start, because it's coming.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's coming, you can smell it. Let's see.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Here's food Line and high Point, North Carolina. They had
two guys who got into an argument over a turkey
at the at the supermarket, the food lines of supermarket.
They went outside, got they got in a fist fight
inside food line. Well, Mark was sixty four years old,
Mark Foy Mark. He kind of lost the fight because

(05:47):
Antonio Johnson was fifty five and he's ten years younger,
so he kind of lost the fight. But when when
Antonio showed up outside with the turkey, Mark had his
pistol out starts shooting at him. Well, Antonio, he had
his pistol on him. So they get into a shootout
over a turkey.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Over a turkey.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
At the food line would be out in the parking
lot with people scrambling trying to get under their cars
while these two idiots are shooting each other over a turkey.
Uh for Thanksgiving? Uh both of them did not have
Thanksgiving at home. They had it in their new home
there the penitentiary. That's just people are just.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
Yeah, there's there's as much as I as much as
I love Thanksgiving dinner as much as the next guy. Uh,
there's nothing on that table. I'm opening fire.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
I'm not gonna shoot anybody over that.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Maybe the rolls. Maybe the rolls. If it if a
guy in front of.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Me, I'd go with that. I'd say roles are worth
shooting somebody over.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
You know, a last batch of rolls from the grocery store.
And I wasn't gonna get my rolls for that. That
would be the only one.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
And let me point this out, Puma and I are
not bad people. We would not kill anybody or rolls.
But maybe woond you know, leg wound something that they'd heal.
Back twenty June to twenty two, not a not a
three ft seven or something that does the job.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Make them something to make them drop the roll said rolls,
So I drop the rolls.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
So there you go.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
And then when you're in prison and someone else drop
the rolls, you're just like, oh, different context.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Here's a Chickasaw, Oklahoma.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
Speaking of prison, they're gonna let you, uh if you
get a ticket, speeding ticket, parking ticket, you've got late
fees at the library. Uh god, even though there was
still library, especially in Chickasaul, Oklahoma. But anyway, sorry, okie's
just joking around. Uh the uh, if you do a
food donation, they'll let you out. You know, you do

(07:45):
that instead of paying fine, do a good bit, so
you're helping out there. The money goes to a good
cause and that that's that's important.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
Well, you know all of these you know, like especially
like I know here in San Antonio, are food bank
covers such a broad like a wide sweeping region. Yeah,
like I know, some of these smaller towns need the
uh you know, need the money to stay afloat from
tickets and stuff like that. But San Antonio, that's let's

(08:18):
let's maybe invest in this idea, of making food.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Uh absolutely, yeah, you know, I forgot what the number
on meals and will I go to the food bank
here in Austin, and I just it's easy to do.
You can go walk in and just put cans in
a box. I mean, that's all you gotta. They got
plenty of box, there's plenty of food, but they don't
have plenty of They always need more food. But just

(08:42):
to help them get organized and get the food into
the vehicles, that is one of the hardest things that
they have.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
And they don't have enough people.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
For that, so it takes that's what takes manpower, or takes.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Take your kids and and and when I was there,
every time I've been there, the uh there's people there
with their kids and are going and I talked to them,
I go, what are you doing there?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
And they go, just wanting them to learn that they
got it. They got it made.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
They were born in this country at this time, you know,
and this time and the uh they got it, they
got it.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Aaste. Uh, here's I thought I'll in with this.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
This is a lot of people picked this time of
year to start organizing and maybe you know, trying to
put stuff here is something that you don't want to
put in your basement or you're at it, they say,
avoid this because of moisture. Uh, here's eight things you
don't want to put in Their tech equipment will ruin it,
the moisture and the mold. Clothing, any kind of clothing.

(09:38):
Just take it to the goodwill or whatever your choice is.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Any kind of betting.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
They're always needing betting, you know, So donate that spoiled snacks.
You don't want to put any food and anything like
wood furniture. They say wood furniture will absorb moisture so
fast and immediately within a year will be rotted. You
know when the and it's not safe when it's rotted. Uh.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Photo albums.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
You don't want to store photo albums anywhere but where
the temperature is right.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Same with paper and magazines.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Magazines gets mold and you can if you read a
magazine with mold on it, you can get sick really
really quick, and I mean real sick.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
And let's see and the last one was, uh.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
I can't I can't read it moone writing.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
So these are my favorite where we get to the
big payoff at the end.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
Ah damn.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Yeah, Well I'm gonna just say tech stuff again and
be done.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, but just don't store.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Think about the moisture in your basement. A lot of
people don't have basements here, but they say the garage
counts just as much anywhere. What's not temperature controlled. Uh,
don't store anything in there. Take it to the good Will,
Take it to the senior centers. Every little town's got
senior center. Do what you can to help out, and
uh and that and and it'll make your life easier

(10:57):
to not having all that crap laying around.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
The stuff you're quote you're trying to store, you're never
gonna touch again.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
You're ever gonna see it again.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
Gone through by someone else after you're gone.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I always said one of the storage units is the
worst thing you can do, because it's moisture in there too.
And you go in and you're paying one hundred dollars
a month, and you go in there and look, there's
not anything in there.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
It's worth one hundred dollars much less.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
You know, all that crap is this crap, So think
about that before you buy crap.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Am I really gonna use this?

Speaker 3 (11:28):
All?

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Right? That's it.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
