S9E12 (Ep 109) Why Moby Dick Is A Bad Book / Every Thanksgiving Side Dish, Ranked
Moby Dick is one of the most celebrated novels in the English language. It's also really, really bad. And every Thanksgiving tradition deserves a tier. This week we cover both.Christina walks through what the book Moby Dick is actually like to read: the hundred-plus chapters, the forty pages on whale anatomy that read like a 19th-century biology textbook, the main villain who barely shows up for the first third, the "classic" status that's been protecting it from criticism for a century, and the honest question of whether anyone has ever actually finished it on purpose. If you've been quietly hating this book since high school, this is your vindication.Then Caleb builds a full Thanksgiving tier list. Every tradition, every side dish, every uncle-adjacent ritual, ranked from S-tier (should be federally protected) down to F-tier (should be quietly retired). Turkey, stuffing, the kids' table, Macy's parade, the awkward family prayer, football, pie debates, Black Friday prep, the all-afternoon nap. It's a full-season reset on what Thanksgiving actually deserves credit for and what everyone agrees to keep doing anyway.Two hosts. Two unrelated topics. One episode that somehow makes sense by the end.

S9E11 (Ep 108) What A 50-Mile Race Does To Your Body / Two Truths And A Lie
50 miles will do things to the human body you wouldn't expect. And one of these three statements is a lie. This week we cover both.
Caleb takes the science chair for a change and walks through exactly what the human body goes through during a 50-mile race, with his own race from Saturday as the live case study. The fuel system switching from carbs to fat, the blood getting rerouted away from the gut (and why that makes you nauseous), the brain's internal governor dialing down how hard your muscles can work, what a muscle "lockup" actually is (scientists still argue), the strange reason you can't sleep after a race, and the real timeline of recovery (hint: your legs are still rebuilding weeks after your blood tests look normal). Plus his honest account of the pretzels that saved his race, the GPS watch that lied to him, and the last 15 miles with Christina pacing him in.
Then Christina flips the format and runs a full round of Two Truths and a Lie. Five themed categories: Accidental Fame, National Parks, Bible Plot Twists, Surprising Résumés, and Animals. BJ Novak, wombat poop, Mackinac Island, Mother Teresa, and sea otters all make appearances. Caleb's job is to guess which one is the lie in each round, and he fails more than he succeeds.
Two hosts. Two unrelated topics. One episode that somehow makes sense by the end.

S9E10 (Ep 107) Oskar Schindler: The Nazi Who Saved 1,200 Lives
A profiteer, a spy, and a card-carrying member of the Nazi Party saved roughly 1,200 Jewish lives during the Holocaust. He ended up broke, buried in Jerusalem, and recognized as one of the Righteous Among the Nations. This week we take on Oskar Schindler.
For the latest in our Heroes of History series, Caleb and Christina tag-team the story of Oskar Schindler. Caleb walks through the early years: the small-town upbringing in Moravia, the expulsion from technical school for forging report cards, the charm-first salesman who stumbled through jobs, and the pivot that mattered most, becoming a spy for German intelligence and joining the Nazi Party for the opportunities it opened up. From there we move to Kraków in 1939, where Schindler takes over a Jewish-owned enamelware factory, hires Jewish workers because they're cheap, and builds a fortune off the war he helped prepare for.
Then Christina takes over for the part that matters most. The slow shift that turned a profiteer into one of the most unlikely heroes of the 20th century. How a man with a Nazi pin on his lapel ended up spending everything he had to keep the people on his list alive, and what we can actually learn from a story where the hero was nothing like a hero when it started.
Two hosts. One of the most paradoxical lives of the 20th century. A conversation about how change really happens.
