What Self-Checkout Stole
EPISODE 224: Sitting next to Roy Wood Jr.
The reason Roy Wood Jr. is back in our podcast studio is not simply because he’s the author of a standup special I love, called Lonely Flowers, over on Hulu, and also the host of Have I Got News For You on CNN.
It’s because Roy, like me, finds himself trying to safely navigate the wreckage of 2025.
A year when every institution in our country — our economy, our politics, our media — is not only changing human behavior but also just crashing into each other. And breaking us apart.
So, in this episode we discuss: NASCAR, Mr. Wizard, Ted Cruz, Barack Obama’s baseball swing, porn gun ranges, Sammy Sosa, and nuking hurricanes.

Great episode and it highlights exactly why Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and surfing are perfect adult sports for the socially disconnected generation.
BJJ uniform doesn’t have any pockets and iPhones aren’t waterproof so the time you spend surfing or training is a period of uninterrupted, exclusively human connections.
