We’re back at full capacity (60% of normal human capacity)!!!! It’s so good and cool to be alive right now! Everything is the best!!!!!!!!!~!!! We LIKE it here! Some things we’re seeing that make us feel regular: A grandpa on Tiktok Listening back to unmedicated Lindy Harlan Coban’s entire oeuvre

And we’re revisiting the beloved segment Whatcha Watchin’ (PS - call to Jingleheimers! We need a Whatcha Watchin’ jingle!!!). We’re watching Harlan Coben’s slop, and we want to know which of his works YOU are slurpin’ up. Write in at [email protected]! Plus: who might be accidentally watchin’ Lindy’s butt? Tune in to find out! And last but not least…we’re soft launching a spinoff?? We want to protect your right to disassociate from reality, so let us know if you would enjoy a bonus episode of all (or at least most) things political? I guess comment with your thoughts or let us know in the discord or text us at (703) 829-0003?? If true, we must also kindly request a Swamp Person jingle 👀👀👀 **Trigger Warnings: Mention of the murder of Renee Good at 12min to 14:25, and things get generally swampy at 55min

Welcome back to Swamp Person! Today we welcome our first GUEST. Her name is Jenny Hunter, and she’s a labor lawyer and writer based in DC. And we are so excited to be answering some important questions about LABOR UNIONS + THE SUPREME COURT.

Oct 13, 2026

Today we have a listener question coming in from one Lindy W. of the Washington State area: How come sometimes the Supreme Court issues a ruling that doesn’t make us want to claw our eyeballs out? Sometimes Clarence Thomas decides NOT to p*ss in our mouths??? Is that on purpose?

Oct 8, 2026
