Pigeons in New York City? Absolutely groundbreaking. This week, we dive headfirst into the winged weirdness that takes over the Big Apple—whether they’re real or not, we’re still debating. Then, we explore why we once adored those feathered friends (hint: Charles Darwin is involved). Along the way, we swap stories about comedic altitude sickness and offbeat movie nights (hello, “Cocaine Bear”), because there’s never a dull moment around here. Next, we dissect the jaw-dropping “affluenza” defense in the Ethan Couch case, proving that real life is sometimes stranger than fiction. Finally, we land on an AITA debate from Reddit: should you just pack up and move to NYC on a whim? Our take might sound familiar, but it’s a can’t-miss conversation. Well, we laughed!
