Some people make mistakes. Others commit to them. This week on The Shallow End, JG and Jethro dive into two unbelievable true stories where one bad decision somehow keeps getting worse. First, a Florida traffic stop takes an astonishing turn when a routine arrest leads to an X-ray scanner, a mysterious "anomaly," and one of the most creative excuses police have heard in years. Then it's off to New York City, where the Knicks' championship celebration produces an unlikely viral celebrity after a woman allegedly steals a commemorative city trash can—in broad daylight, on camera, and even rides the subway with it. Along the way, the guys swap stories about Fred Willard's improvisational genius, laugh over patriotic misunderstandings in Scotland, and ask the important questions: How does someone think any of this is going to work? It's another collection of real news that's stranger than fiction, proving once again that the shallow end of the gene pool is always open. In this episode: Florida traffic stop turns into a bizarre cocaine arrest The New York Knicks championship trash can theft Viral videos, body cams, and spectacularly poor judgment Fred Willard, Christopher Guest, and the art of improv Listener mail from Scotland and more If you enjoy bizarre true news, strange crime stories, dark humor, and people making spectacularly questionable life choices, you'll feel right at home in The Shallow End.
