This week on It’s Ben A Week, Cassandra Broadway is back, and we’re covering everything from medical meltdowns to missing persons mysteries.

Ben kicks things off with his annual LabCorp rant after another disastrous blood work experience — barcode scanning drama, fasting for nothing, and why phlebotomists have the same customer service energy as the post office.

Then the conversation spirals into:

  • Why camping feels like punishment when you already live on a ranch with 70 animals
  • Ben’s upcoming “glamping” trip to Northern California with cabins, theme nights, and maybe some mushrooms
  • Whether reality TV ruins acting careers — and why Survivor might just be free Ozempic
  • A deep dive into Stalking Samantha on Hulu — where the victim’s story doesn’t exactly add up
  • Cassandra’s real-life brush with stalkers in college and Miami apartment creeps
  • Netflix’s Amy Bradley is Missing and the wild theories of what really happened on that cruise ship
  • The infamous Poop Cruise — sewage floods, mattress orgies, and why Ben would’ve jumped overboard to the nearest passing yacht

AJ pops in at the end to share why Cassandra has been his best friend for 20 years, why their phone calls often involve long stretches of silence, and how that’s the ultimate love language of friendship.
