Episode 16: Oh My God The Banks Are Out Of Oil

Hello and a heads up for the start of this episode: We discuss the recent murder of Seattle resident, UW student, and trans woman Juniper Blessing. We recorded this episode the day after her name was announced, and we were both extremely distraught. We discuss the ridiculous cruelty of her death and the general sadness of living as a trans person in the modern American world. If you find this triggering and upsetting and would like to skip it (which trust me, I get it if you do), the mainline episode begins at 7:58. Today, in the actual episode, Jordan and Vicki go to the bank and take all their oil out, because the banks are out of Group III Base Oils!!! (Victoria does indeed go John Oliver mode again about base oils btw, hope y'all enjoy that.) Then, Jordan describes a perfect car which is totally illegal to buy (thanks to one weird trick Hyundai DOESN'T want you to KNOW). Then we discuss the fact that we all live in the Fast and Furious Cinematic Universe, forever, as NBC is making like four shows. Maybe. Who knows anymore tbh. As always, our theme song is off Stella Spazzatura's Horse Tranquilizer Simulator.Referenced Stories: Gwen Howerton's Story About Texas -> Seattle Refugees @ChronILMA/DOE Talks On Base Oil Supply Chain @ILMATexas City Disaster (Vol. II) @Well There's Your Problem YouTubeGroup III Pricing Chaos @JobbersWorldILMA Expectations Of Supply Pressure Through 2027 @CNBCBimmerpost Poster With The Lathe Of Heaven @BimmerpostIoniq 6 Canned For America @CarAndDriverIoniq 6 Stop-Sale Recall @PeopleFast And Furious Forever And Ever And Ever @Hollywood ReporterThe Receipts For Paul Walker Dating Teenage Girls When He Was Well Into His Thirties @JalopnikThe Receipts For Jerry Seinfeld Dating A Teenage Girl When He Was Almost Forty @Collider
