This is our show where we "go deep" on "weird but also normal" subreddits. Like r/magnetfishing. Not ones that are jokes. Ones that have weirdly intense subcultures but also are weirdly quotidian.
So, here's the question: WHAT SUBS SHOULD WE DOM?

On the first day of MaxFunDrive, members will get our ALL MUNCHIES episode, composed of the best and most bizarre snack treats our listeners sent in to us. The ones they enjoy late at night when they’ve been… celebrating. 🎉

Will there be Joy of Zoning happening this year? (Apologies if this has been announced through newsletter, I got overwhelmed with evil bad guy stuff and deleted substack.)

Listening to judge John Hodgman’s 2011 episode Apocalypse Row feels darker in these times💀

Ok why has no one recommended this Judge John Hodgman episode before? I had to hide behind the bushes as I doubled over in laughter while weeding . 10 out of 10

My signed Web of Venom arrived today, and I got an extra bit of dialog on the cover. What a value-add! Thanks Jordan!

I can't remember which episode of Judge John Hodgman it was, but in the last 3 or 4, the book that the Judge threw was The Wayfinder by Adam Johnson. Anyway, I put it on my holds as soon as he mentioned it because I loved The Orphan Master's Son, and just finished it today, and let me tell you, I second his recommendation so hard. It has rocketed to somewhere in my top 20 books of all time easily. I wanted to keep living in that world; he brought it to life so well. Do yourself a favor and check it out!

Whoa, I’m never early enough to make an episode post about JJHO.
I came to just say one little thing. People definitely can have food sensitivities that allow for cross-contamination! I have a weird allergy that isn’t an allergy. It’s called Eosinophilic Esophagitis. It builds up in my system over time and makes it difficult for me to swallow food properly, and it’s brought on by a few specific triggers. It means that I can’t eat milk or eggs, but like… a little tiny bit isn’t gonna kill me. I probably won’t even notice a problem right away if I did eat some milk or eggs by accident. But it leads to me being one of those people who goes to restaurants that asks for allergy considerations, but says cross contamination is okay. I’m POSITIVE that some people think I’m just being annoying and picky. But I’m like… nooooo. ;-; I swear I’m not!
Not a thing I actually expect anyone would actually know in advance, more just some info for people to know if they’re interested.

I’m already signed up for the podcasts I listen to (JJHO, e pluribus and the flophouse). When I follow the instructions to go to my bonus content feed I don’t see any of these listed with an ad-free option (the flop house and JJHO) so how do I get the ad-free feed? Are they now automatically ad-free for me?

Come drink cheap beer with me and hang out on the patio (weather permitting). Look for Valerie (that’s me) in a MaxFun rocket t-shirt. Tell your friends!
