We were SUPPOSED to talk about D.B. Cooper… somehow we ended up doing another 9/11 episode 😭
On Episode 39 of Pop Ya Sh*t, Quran & Egypt switch things up with a true-crime/story-mode episode centered around one of the craziest unsolved mysteries ever: D.B. Cooper.
In 1971, a man boarded a flight, claimed he had a bomb, demanded $200,000 and parachutes, jumped out of the plane — and was never definitively identified.
So naturally we had questions.
Would we have taken the bomb threat seriously? Did Cooper actually survive the jump? How much easier was it to disappear before modern technology? And what would we have done if we were passengers on that plane?
Then somehow D.B. Cooper leads us down a completely different rabbit hole involving 9/11, aviation security, U.S. foreign policy, conspiracy theories, intelligence failures and why learning more about history as an adult can completely change the questions you ask.
This one went WAY further than we planned.

I Can Explain
We probably should’ve kept both of these stories to ourselves 😭
Egypt: “So I stole the money.”
Me: “So I took a shit.”
And somehow… those are only the BEGINNING of both stories.
One of us stole $400 from their mother and had to pull off a last-second mission to put it back before she noticed.
The other had an unfortunate situation on the train after New Year’s Eve and came up with possibly the WORST escape plan ever created.
I’m not saying anything else. 😂

Whats Beef?
WE RECORDED THROUGH A NOR’EASTER 😭
Pop Ya Sh*t is back with Episode 37, and somehow this one goes from podcast beef to fake beef, family drama, friendship problems and why everybody needs to stop being so invested in celebrities’ lives.
Quran & Egypt break down the Queens Flip/Rory situation and debate whether podcast beef is basically WWE. That somehow turns into us considering whether WE should stage a fake beef for views…which immediately goes left.
Then we get into GloRilla and her sister B-Rella, the AI photo controversy, whether an “icebreaker” counts as an apology, giving people space when you know you messed up, and Quran admitting his fear of rejection sometimes keeps him from apologizing right away.
And finally: Ari & Moneybagg Yo. If they were secretly married for years…why exactly do y’all care so much? 👀
