What do brown cheese, Bitcoin Pizza Day, and scrotum-crushing airplane seats have in common? Keith, Brad, and Rebecca connect the dots in a hilariously unfiltered episode that swings from Memorial Day reflections to Norwegian conspiracies faster than you can say "Surströmming."

Keith tackles the true cost of giving up your cat's personal stroller, why Waffle House menus should be framed, and what happens when you cross a libertarian with a piece of halal-certified stinky cheese. There’s talk of rare earth minerals, brown cheese with raspberry sauce, political asylum in Norway, cats plotting your death, and the real reason you’re paying extra for your airline seat (hint: it's not fuel).

Add in some side quests through Kamala’s career climb, narcissism in society, and ancient Viking culinary challenges, and you've got one of the most chaotic, insightful, and laugh-out-loud episodes of At The Mic yet.

🎙️ It’s cultural analysis, political satire, and unfiltered commentary… Texas style.

Life, death, ethics, parenting—and stinky fish. This episode hits hard, gets real, and makes you laugh.

In this episode, I open up about everything from glitchy livestream chaos to aging, guilt, and some deeply emotional real-world stories. We break down the tragic case of Adriana Smith—a pregnant woman declared brain dead—and the ethical minefield surrounding Georgia's heartbeat law. What happens when law and life don’t align?

We also dig into childhood discipline, moral parenting dilemmas, and the evolving ethics in sports. Ever wonder if prosthetic limbs create unfair advantages? We explore that too. And just when it gets too heavy, we lighten the mood with the world’s smelliest fish. (Yes, I actually tried it.)

You’ll laugh, maybe cry, and definitely think differently about some major issues.

🔊 Topics Covered:

• Medical ethics & pregnancy laws
• Parenting, guilt, and growing up
• Doping & prosthetics in sports
• Technology and privacy
• Trust in government & the media
• Culinary disaster: the stinky fish challenge
• Humor, empathy & resilience in chaos

What starts with tips and tools for teaching toddlers how to swim turns into one of the most unpredictable rides we’ve ever streamed. From parenting strategies and early childhood independence to AI ghosting, Sesame Street debates, and even shark rescues—this episode covers more than floaties and swim goggles.

Yes, we talk about real ways to help young kids feel confident in the water—but also:

• Strange protest stories
• Regrettable relationship decisions
• 3D-printed treehouses
• Whether Sesame Street sold out
• Politicians taking cognitive tests
• And a literal shark rescue

You’ll laugh, think, and definitely hit a moment where you say, “Wait, what am I listening to?”

If you’ve ever taught a toddler anything (or tried), taken parenting advice from a meme, or gotten philosophical during bath time—this is your tribe.

A crown of fire. A throne of iron. A feast of flesh.

This week, Keith Malinak uncovers the grisly fate of György Dózsa — a Hungarian rebel whose execution was so savage it echoed through history.

But that’s just the beginning.

From failed connections with Pfizer whistleblower Brooke Jackson to a theory that COVID may not have been an accident, this episode is unscripted chaos in the best way possible. Keith dives deep into current headlines, bizarre personal health issues, animal encounters, and a loneliness study that will make your ears perk up (literally).

Plus: What is “woke right”? Why does Trump’s Middle East reception matter? And if you could time travel 300 years — would you go forward or back?

Pregnancy, fast food, politics, and mental health—Rebecca’s growing a human, Keith’s ranting about fries, and somehow it all leads to propaganda, parenting fails, and Norwegian weather complaints.

This episode’s got cultural confusion, unsolicited parenting advice, questionable food takes, and just enough tech paranoia to keep things interesting. From AI in your backyard to why Norway refuses to embrace sitcoms, Keith and Rebecca zigzag through life updates, mental health fallout, and fast food existentialism—without spilling a drink or finishing a point.

More Topics Covered:

- Rebecca drops a pregnancy reveal while breaking down American food cravings

- The fast food debate: why McDonald’s abroad feels gourmet compared to the U.S.

- How AI and robotics are creeping into agriculture and daily life- Cultural confusion over Halloween, Cinco de Mayo, and why Norwegians don’t do sitcoms

Epstein list, conspiracy theories, Keith Malinak on At The Mic podcast with Brad Staggs & Rebecca Mistereggen. Pop culture commentary, viral video debate & military parade controversy.

Keith and the crew are back with a Friday episode so full of chaos, weird debates, and unfiltered commentary, it should probably come with a warning label. What starts with nostalgia and “these are the days we’ll remember” spirals fast — and beautifully — into everything from pop culture conspiracies and Taco Bell drama to aging, technology, and whether showering with a cat is ever a good idea (spoiler: no).

They cover it all: the Epstein list and the ethics of exposing injustice, why military parades feel a little…dictator-ish, Brad’s accidental invasion of Paramount Studios, and why real Mexican food doesn’t exist in Europe (Rebecca’s rant is legendary). You’ll hear wild personal stories, Pippi Longstocking deep lore, and a fight video that sets off a whole debate on violence, gender, and gorillas.

This one’s messy in the best way — part stand-up comedy, part group therapy, part WTF did I just hear? It’s smart, stupid, uncomfortable, hilarious, and totally addictive.

Listen to the end. You’ll walk away both dumber and more enlightened.

Kurt Cobain’s death still doesn’t add up. This episode unpacks Courtney Love’s alleged motives, crime scene gaps, the 27 Club, grunge culture, and how conspiracy theories keep resurfacing.

Keith, Brad Staggs @realBradStaggs, and Kelly Smith @Kelly4Freedom dig deep into the suspicious circumstances surrounding Cobain’s death—Courtney Love’s erratic behavior, Tom Grant’s private investigation, and the contradictions in the crime scene itself. From Soaked in Bleach to the infamous shotgun photo, it’s a cold case with more heat than ever.

But it’s still BarFly, which means chaos is guaranteed. The episode jumps from swinger vampire real estate clients to Jennifer Aniston's dreams, urgent care rants, and Roswell alien tech—plus a God theory or two for good measure. The audio may glitch, but the conversation never slows down.

Whether you’re into music history, offbeat conspiracies, or just want to laugh through the madness, this one’s packed. Stick around—you’ll question reality, learn something weird, and maybe never hear Nirvana the same way again.
