89. Hoarders, IPAs, Backpacking (w/ Micah Mason)

Phil & Jake are joined by friend-of-the-pod Micah to rank the reality TV show Hoarders, the craft beer style known as IPA, and the activity of backpacking on the List of Every Damn Thing.

SHOW NOTES:

• The Collyer Brothers were famous hoarders who died in the 1940s. There was a musical made about their lives.
• Aida is a Verdi opera, first performed in Cairo in 1871. Of course Phil pronounced it wrong. What did you expect?!
• During the episode Jake drinks a Picnic Lightning by Brouwerij West. It’s a top-notch Hazy IPA.
• Shop ‘n’ Wash was a laundromat & convenience store in Ukiah, CA. It's name is pure description, zero wordplay. Phil feels that laundromats should have some wordplay in their names eg "Get the Funk Out" 
• "Escamoles" or "Mexican caviar" are ant eggs eaten as food by adventurous eaters like Micah.
• Phil referred to Shackleton’s Endurance as Sir Edmund Hillary going to the North Pole in the Perseverance. The wreck of Endurance was just discovered in March of 2022!
• "The Ride" by David Allan Coe is a 1983 country song about an encounter with the ghost of Hank Williams while hitchhiking from Montgomery, AL to Nashville, TN.
• Phil mentions Plagues and Pleasures on The Salton Sea, a documentary about the area. It's a very strange place both culturally and geologically.
