Ep 325 | TRAGEDY: Peaceful Monkey Shot in Mississippi
In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with Tyra Banks’ attempt to launch “hot ice cream” and the 50th anniversary of Jaws. The hosts then turn their attention to the now-infamous Mississippi “herpes monkey” story, where an escaped lab monkey was fatally shot after a highway crash left one still on the loose. They react to the viral interview that followed, unpacking how a small-town encounter spiraled into national headlines and online hysteria. From there, they rediscover the long-lost reality show Gary Busey: Pet Judge, exploring how the actor’s bizarre courtroom rants unintentionally capture the absurdity of modern entertainment. The episode pivots into a heated cultural debate after a viral clip from Gold’s Gym in Los Angeles shows a woman confronting management for allowing a biological man in the women’s locker room. The hosts weigh in on safety, double standards, and the growing confusion around privacy and identity in public spaces. Lighter moments return as they trade post-Halloween stories about over-the-top neighborhood displays, unexpected adult treats, and childhood memories of awkward school “safety” programs. The night wraps with an irreverent take on political headlines and the show’s signature blend of skepticism and satire about fame, hypocrisy, and the line between news and parody. Today’s guests on "Normal World" are Kevin Sullivan and Frank Easterling from the 21 Gun Podcast.
