This week features the wrap-up of our introduction to โThe League of Extordniary Gentlemenโ with two special guests: Muscle Tornado and Bayou Jones. And once again, my colleague Martin Ferretti fills in for me while Iโm off solving extraordinary Indiana-Jones-esque ancient mysteries!
First we Tippyโs Patsonโs recruit, Muscle Tornado โ a โ spiritual warrior for Jesusโ that loves DMT, numerology, and Hulk Hogan. Not only is pro wrestling a very real sport to him with real consequences, it is literally the war of God and the Devil incarnate. These wrestlers, he argues, are the mortal totems that represent a warfare throughout the ages.
Next weโll meet Bayou Jones โ an old moonshiner mystic, one of Tippyโs oldest friends, and a man who was allegedly raised by some kindly alligators. This interview is a bit shorter, on account of Bayouโs incoherence from all crack cocaine he smokes during the chat. And if youโre not on the Tippy Patson train yet, understand that this is a for sure super duper real group of dummies hanging out in the Florida Everglades, wrestling what theyโre convinced are shapeshifting Illuminati gators! Thatโs right โ theyโre too stupid to be a cult but too organized to just be regular swamp people, and theyโre always a fun time.
Lastly, with the time to spare I tell a story of some of my elderly step-uncles landing on an episode of Alaska State Troopers. Season 3, Episode 6: Madman Manhunt! Fast forward to the final story of the episode and youโll find them trying to steal scrap metal from the dump after dark, and I give you the details that the state trooper couldnโt figure out. Itโs this and more insanity this week.
And donโt forget to listen to Black Hoodie Alchemy #14, 30, 32, 33, and 34 for the rest of The League of Extordniary Gentlemenโs escapades!
And this weekโs featured music is nearly all from my homies, Negative Blast. Theyโre an amazing mash of the melodic and beatdown qualities that you find on both ends of the punk rock spectrum โ and they keep it old school. I really love what theyโre doing.
