Nutella Effect | 455

John Jamingo turned 65, got his Medicare card, and spent his birthday insisting he watched the Concorde land in Philly during Live Aid. It never happened, not once, ever. The chat named it the Nutella Effect, and it stuck. Happy birthday, old man.

Then it got loud. A woman went viral claiming any guy who ghosts you after sex is a rapist, and the Duchess took her apart piece by piece. You regret it, fine. That's a bad night, not a crime, and calling it rape spits on real victims. Add the Cornell story that refuses to die, a college kid who blames capitalism for everything and can't tell you what it is, a tipping rule that should be law, a drug-resistant STD nobody's talking about, the shock gloves ICE just bought, and Noah's Ark. Or a spaceship. Depends who you ask.

Topics Covered:

The Nutella Effect — John would swear on a stack of Bibles he saw the Concorde come down the Delaware during Live Aid. Concordes never landed in Philadelphia. He still doesn't fully believe it.

John turns 65 — Full-carded boomer, Medicare age, and a "Happy October 7th" joke that sailed right over the Duchess's head.

The birthday video — His kids bought trick candles that relight. For a 65-year-old. The chat says they're trying to kill him.

Israel isn't committing genocide — John plays a Lego explainer, because apparently that's what it takes, and the chat goes at it.

Cornell won't die — John says Hochul named Tish James special prosecutor, and now one of the guys says he was passed out and never consented.

"That's not funny" — A frat brother brags about shutting down a joke in the group chat. John and the Duchess have notes.

Ghosting isn't rape — The Duchess on the viral video, and why "it's not your fault" doesn't apply when you said yes.

Define capitalism — She blames it for America's problems. She can't define it. Crickets.

The colonizers — Pink hair, 65 bracelets, and a history lesson that goes nowhere. The Duchess suggests she try expressing herself in Pakistan.

If I order standing up, I'm not tipping — The rule that would save America. Sit-down service still gets tipped, and tipped well.

Drug-resistant Shigella — Half a million U.S. cases a year, spreading fastest among gay and bisexual men, and getting harder to treat. The CDC's big plan: wash your hands.

ICE shock gloves — An Army study says they hurt like hell and end fights immediately. ICE knew that before they bought them. John wants a pair for every woman walking to her car.

France is burning — Rioters are kicking cops in the head, one kid blew his fingers off with a flash grenade, and the government is muzzling the police.

Noah's Ark or alien ship? — Alex Jones had a guy on who says it's one or the other. They've been looking at it since 1959. Claudia explains what a cubit is (about 18 inches).

Can't-Miss (Usually Misses) — 0-4-1 last week, 9-11 on the year. Bet against him. The Eagles' O-line is gutted, and John's 0-4 in fantasy, but he plays his ex-wife this week.

The Duchess walks 20 miles — Mammoth March outside Pittsburgh on Saturday. She's also in first place for Top Host, so go vote.

Trump Tweets Read by Kate — Gas prices and San Diego, France, and where in the world is Talarico.

Voicemail and feedback — Dean sings happy birthday, and Teresa says what everyone's thinking about "believe all women."
