    210: Be Careful Where You Squat
    May 27 2026
    Two grown men attempt to answer life’s biggest questions:How far should you go to retrieve your car keys from a porta-potty?How many beers does it take before 911 becomes Coors Light customer service?And exactly where should you not squat in the English countryside? In this hilariously disastrous episode of The Shallow End, JG and Lindsay dive headfirst into a collection of true stories involving terrible decisions, public humiliation, emergency responders, stinging nettles, and one unforgettable porta-potty rescue that became instant American folklore. From a Pennsylvania man trapped inside a portable toilet while attempting to recover his keys… to an Idaho bar patron who called 911 twelve times over a $30 beer tab… to a listener story involving painful botanical consequences in the Lake District of England — this episode celebrates the universal human ability to look directly at a bad idea and say, “Yeah… I can still make this work.” Expect ridiculous true news stories, dark observational humor, bizarre real-life mishaps, drunken logic, and the kind of cautionary tales that make you feel dramatically better about your own life choices. If you enjoy absurd comedy podcasts, embarrassing true stories, weird news, awkward survival tales, and conversations that sound like two lifelong friends trying to outdo each other with increasingly terrible decisions, this episode belongs in your ears immediately. Topics include: porta-potty rescue stories, drunk 911 calls, bizarre news, embarrassing accidents, stinging nettles, terrible decision-making, true comedy stories, weird America, bar disasters, and listener confessions.

    209: Lottery Chaos & A Pistol Packin' Santa
    May 20 2026
    In this episode of The Shallow End, Jethro and Lindsay dive headfirst into one of the strangest crimes in Texas history: the infamous 1927 Santa Claus Bank Robbery. A gun-toting Kris Kringle storms a bank in Cisco, Texas, sparks a downtown shootout, kidnaps two young girls in a stolen Model T, and launches one of the wildest manhunts the Lone Star State has ever seen. It’s Christmas chaos, Texas vigilante justice, and a Santa that absolutely should not be coming down your chimney. Then the guys pivot from outlaw Santas to modern-day lottery insanity with the unbelievable true story of a Kentucky man who won $167 million in the Powerball… and somehow still managed to get arrested repeatedly almost immediately afterward. Along the way: traumatized mall Santas, bee facts, red honey mysteries, bad life choices, and why sudden wealth apparently does not cure criminal behavior. If you love bizarre true stories, dark comedy, historical weirdness, unbelievable crimes, and conversations that spiral gloriously out of control, welcome back to The Shallow End. #TrueCrime #TexasHistory #SantaClausBankRobbery #LotteryWinner #WeirdHistory #ComedyPodcast #TheShallowEnd #BizarreNews #Powerball #HistoricalCrime Learn more about your ad choices.
