On Today’s Show:
Date: Friday, October 31, 2025 • Sponsor: Sideshow listener Bellboy (Lifetime Member)
Cold Open
* The Clip Keeper ushers in a dreadful Halloween edition.
* Ad Parody:Berry Papa Bawa cereal (General Farm Foods) — marshmallow bat-wings, alkyl nitrate toy surprise, and 100% daily Vitamin D with every… thrust.
* Lore drop: Papa Bawa (“bat wing”) — a modern Tanzanian shape-shifting demon with a sulfur reek, fixated on anal violation and publicizing his deeds.
Special(ish) Guest: Satan (…briefly)
* Tim plans a co-host; Satan pops in, bails for “family therapy,” actually appearing on The Latronda Brown Show.
* Talk-Show Meltdown Sketch:
* Satan’s teen daughter Kayla calls Dad a basement-dwelling spaz; Satan pleads “this is who I am” (devil’s gonna devil).
* Surprise reveal: Satan’s “girlfriend” is… Richard Simmons. Say-Say is living his truth.
* Real issue: Dad forgot to sic demons on Kayla’s rival Renee before all-star cheer nationals; Satan promises creative evisceration. Healing begins. Latronda teases “Down Syndrome Makeover Monday.”
Holiday Hellfire
* Religious Anti-Halloween Rant: “Sin, disease, and sickness!” (Tim: calm down, Pastor Candy Corn.)
* “White Men Are the Real Victims” Bro Clip:
* Soft-voiced trad-guy laments Ivy Leagues, Fortune 500s, “heritage Americans.”
* Tim clocks the whine, then the pivot: “women are atrocious today” → Tim’s parody pitch to reconsider sodomites.
Viral Clip Commentary: DoorDash “Assault”
* TikToker claims SA after leaving food, peeking through an open door, seeing a man asleep pants-down.
* Tim’s take: creepy? yes. Assault? no. Also: filming inside someone’s home = TOS problems.
* Comments roast the poster; most responders (including women) push back on the “SA” framing.
News Buffet (Short & Twisted)
* Meta vs. Strike 3 Holdings — porn downloads & AI training
* Strike 3 alleges ~2,400 adult titles pulled via Meta’s network/proxies to train a video model; damages could top $350M.
* Meta: employees/contractors probably downloaded for personal use; internal policy forbids explicit training data; timing predates current multimodal work.
* Tim does the math (bad headline averages vs. real totals), concludes: across tens of thousands of employees, 28 videos/month enterprise-wide is… minuscule. Also coins the call-in moniker “Ropes of Nut.”
* Homemade Chloroform, Elvis, and Manslaughter (NY)
* Ronald Ryer, 71 gets 5–15 years (plus concurrent tampering sentence) for the April 2024 death of Thomas “TJ” Kreider, 40 — an Elvis tribute artist and Star Trek set tour guide — after repeated chloroform doses during sex.
* Ryer waited days, did errands, hit a solar eclipse party, then called police. Judge: “You took an oath to do no harm” (Ryer has medical background).
