We’re back in the jungle for episode 69 as our Laos cabin is serving major haunted energy. From fans that scream when you turn the lights on to mysterious late-night knocks on the door, Shelby’s ready to bail to a resort while Scott somehow thinks it’s “friendly vibes.” We chat wild encounters (including one very bold lizard), dinosaurs that turn out to be vegan badasses, and the mind-bending idea that science might not be as certain as we think. In “Scott’s WTF of the Week” we unpack a world headline that blurs the line between innovation and insanity, and “Shelby’s Good Vibes Only” reminds us that even the wild can surprise you with a moment of pure kindness.
