A podcast that is ripped-from-the-headlines in a funny way, highlighting some of the lesser-known triumphs of human ingenuity. In Season One you met such unique characters as the creators of fart spray, Liquid Ass; the founder of the Church of Jediism; the makers of elephant-dung gin; the originator of Goat Yoga; the makers of Belly Button Beer (made with fermented navel lint!) and much more. In Season Two we may have topped ourselves with such guests the owner of a Lithuanian potato chip company with a flavour that simulates the nether regions of the female anatomy; the operator of Reykjavik’s Icelandic Phallological Museum; a man who pushed a peanut up a mountain with his nose, and so much more! These segments, in narrative form, are hosted by broadcaster Peter Anthony Holder, and were also featured in conversational form on his online radio show, The Stuph File Program (https://www.peteranthonyholder.com/), which has been running for over a decade.
Brian Acosta Arya (https://brianacostaarya.com/index.html) is the owner/operator of the Lincoln Tunnel Motel in New Jersey. He's also a TikTok (https://www.tiktok.com/@ltmotel?lang=en) star and an aspiring actor. He’s been doing his part to help the less fortunate in his community with accommodations ever since the start of the pandemic, and he continues to do so.
There are many different ways that you can get a pizza delivered to you, but have you ever thought that a boat was one of them? Sean Ferraro is the owner of Madison Avenue Pizza (https://www.madisonavepizza.com/) in Dunedin, Florida, and he’s also known as “The Pizza Skiff Guy” as he pilots his boat around the Gulf of Mexico selling and delivering his delicious treats.

The Bridesmaid Dress & The Puzzle Barn
Rebecca Whitlinger is one of those rare women who not only got to wear her bridesmaid dress more than once, she’s worn it in many different circumstances and in many parts of the world, ever since she first wore it just six months after the wedding, back in 1988. She has also raised a lot of money for the cancer organization, Cancer Bridges (https://cancerbridges.org/).
Ron Degenfelder is the owner and operator of The Puzzle Barn (https://www.facebook.com/groups/305222501275674) where you can rent hundreds of jigsaw puzzles from his converted chicken coop in Boston, New York.

Living Dead Josh & Sock Monkey Museum
Josh Nalley is a viral sensation on TikTok, as he shows up in video after video as Living Dead Josh (https://www.tiktok.com/@living_dead_josh?lang=en), staying motionless, like a corpse in over 300 videos. He’s so convincing that he was even contacted by CBS to play a dead body on a morgue slab in an episode of CSI: Vegas.
Arlene Okun is a Guinness World Record holder. She has the largest collection of sock monkeys in the world, owning over 2,100 of the cotton vintage items of Americana. And she’s also the owner of The Sock Monkey Museum (https://sockmonkeymuseum.com/) just outside of Chicago.
