006 | Torpedo bats. OMNY & TAPP to-pay systems. Drunk mayors. You can’t make this up—but Concrete Cactus can break it down.

🧨 The Bronx Bombers are back—but this time, they brought missiles. Is it innovation… or war crimes at the plate? We—and by ‘we,’ we mean just Brandon—give the Yankees’ torpedo bat conspiracy a fresh pair of legs.

Also in this episode: 
– We drive you into “God’s country”—and all its pothole-filled glory.
– Fresh off going independent, Mayor Eric Adams advocates for his initiative dubbed ‘Cop City.’
– Arizona’s Stolen Valor law stalls—after a real veteran blocks it to protect a fake one. Only in the desert, baby.
– The Giants’ QB room becomes a heavenly Oreo: two devout saints on the outside and a wiseguy in the middle.

All that—plus some soul-searching sandwiched between the nonsense.
 It’s deep. It’s regional. It's “Lightweight Hilarious”.  It’s Cactus.
