Snek oil, apply directly to the forehead! Snek oil, apply directly for the forehead! That’s our interpretation of what an 1800s commercial for snake oil would sound like. And don’t get it confused with the very real and highly effective Chinese folk medicine!

Wipe that smile off your face because Hayley came with a doozy this week. The most depraved part of her interests brings you the horrific backwoods Canadian torture cult of The Ant Hill Kids. Listen on to hear the one thing “Big Canada” doesn’t want you to know.

In Disney’s Frozen an ice castle was a fantasy, but in real life, ice sheets on an ice bed just means freezing your dick off. The ice elephant sounds pretty cool though.

All you really need to do is watch Harry Potter on a loop and come up with a good codename! Prost...
