  • Episode #162 of The Shallow End with Schnebly and Toth is hotter than a doorknob in hell!  Jethro begins with the tale of a man with a shady past who got pulled over by the police in Orange County, CA. When you have a history of brushes with the law, and you get pulled over by the police, what’s the best way to handle it?  That’s easy!  Just tell them you’re someone else!  Say, your brother. Yeah!  Just tell them you’re your brother!  Then Lindsay tells us about a very inventive bank robber who planned “the perfect getaway.” Why bother with a car when you can float a rubber tube down a nearby creek?

But rather than incite fear, this conversation delivers hope. Dr. Shah shares a practical roadmap for detoxing daily life—simple, affordable steps that can be taken immediately. He emphasizes the power of the body’s natural detox systems, particularly the liver, and how small changes made consistently can lead to transformative results over time.

  • Episode #159 is a barn-burner of bad ideas!  Jethro starts off with a Florida Man, a plan, and a few drinks too many.  Maybe not the best time to dream up the idea of “the perfect tattoo.” Oh well – at least it’s permanent! Then Lindsay tells us about a woman who was so upset at not being invited to a (third!)  cousin’s wedding, she exacted the strangest revenge you’ve ever heard.

  • On episode #158 of TSE, Lindsay leads off with a man in Norway who awoke to the sound of his neighbor trying to wake him in the early morning hours. Why? Because there was a boat where the sky used to be! How does a 150-yard-long cargo ship run aground just outside a quiet living room window? You’ll love the answer!  Then Jethro shares the tale of one of the coolest-headed bank robbers you’ve ever heard of.  Anyone can rob a bank and flee in a screaming getaway car. But what about the cool cucumbers who decide to saunter next door for a haircut and shave before going on the lamb?!

  • During this Memorial Week, we take a moment to remember Episode 27! The title for the world's stupidest bank robber is a very competitive division. However, Lindsay may have found a leading contender. Then, Jethro tells us about a bugler who just can't get a break. Attention! If an emergency occurs while listening to this episode, an oxygen mask will drop down from the compartment above your head. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • What word starts with "F” and ends with "uck?” “Firetruck," of course!  Episode #156 hits the ground running with Lindsay’s story about a guy in England who loved him some firetrucks. But scratching that itch to see a big red pumper (!) isn’t always so easy. Then Jethro tells us about a guy who had a novel technique to score not only some quick cash, but two free pizzas!  What went wrong? Well, as Sean Connery so aptly put it in “The Hunt For Red October,” “Not everything in here reacts well to bullets.” Tune in to find out what happened – but remember to wash your hands first!

  • On episode #155 of The Shallow End, what would you buy if you had a one-million-dollar bill? At Walmart. Ignoring the fact that the US Treasury doesn’t even print bills that big. Well, JG has the story of a man who used his million-dollar bill to buy a vacuum cleaner. Things got complicated as he waited for the change. Then Linds shares the daring tale of a Kansas man who needed some quick cash to pay off his drug dealer. And if you guessed he decided to use a giant cannon from the Spanish-American War, well, dear listener, your prescience knows no bounds! Get those floaties on your li’l arms, kids! We’re headed for The Shallow End! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Episode #154 is a barn-burner!  Jethro is up first with the tale of a man who decided to climb Mt. Fuji without proper gear at the wrong time of the year. And somewhere in all that ice and oxygen deprivation, he barely survived and lost his phone. But it’s what he did just a few days later that qualifies him as a Shallow End-swimmer!  Then Linds shares the story of a drug dealer who marketed himself to strangers and police alike in very unusual ways. It’ll make you think twice about chatting with your next ride-share driver!

  • Join hosts Schnebly and Toth in this episode of Shallow End, where they take a deep dive into the turbulent waters of online idiocy and historical misfortune. We got an email suggesting we revisit the topic of ill-conceived stunts, and since we already covered it in a previous episode, why not do it again? It's like recycling, but with more facepalms. Get ready to laugh, cringe, and possibly question the future of humanity as Schnebly and Toth run through the best of viral Internet challenges that were definitely thought through… said no one ever. From the "Tide Pod Challenge" (because eating laundry detergent is the new gourmet) to the "Fire Challenge" (because who doesn’t want to set themselves on fire for internet fame?), these stunts were guaranteed to go wrong—and spoiler alert: they did. So buckle up and prepare for a cringe-fest of epic proportions. But wait, there's more! Schnebly and Toth also dig into the tragically ironic fate of Captain John Kendrick. A once-renowned sea captain who somehow managed to turn every ounce of hubris into a series of horrible decisions. Get ready for a tale of twists, turns, and an unexpected plunge into historical calamity that will make you appreciate your own decision not to sail into the unknown with zero foresight. So, leave your dignity behind and dive into this mess of an episode with Schnebly and Toth. Whether you’re into facepalm-worthy internet stunts or you love a good, old-fashioned historical flop, this one’s got it all—and it’s wrapped in a nice layer of sarcasm and irreverence.

  • In Episode #151, Jethro starts with a story of a woman looking for “The Perfect Selfie” at a swanky Los Angeles art exhibit featuring 12 very large and expensive pieces of…well…art. What could go wrong, we ask? Just a slight adjustment to line up the perfect selfie. Lean back just a few inches, and…well…something went very, very wrong.  Then, Lindsay tells us a story proving that politicians with inflated egos and stupid decisions are nothing new. This story goes back to 1917 from a German Foreign Minister who devised the perfect plan to keep America out of World War I. And we all know how well that idea worked!  Take those selfies and fire up the bratwurst! Episode #151 is a barn-burner! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • To celebrate the 150th episode of this thing we like to call a podcast, “The Shallow End” is proud to feature an entire episode of stories sent in by our family of listeners – The Shallow End Dwellers. Hilarity ensues when a man finds that his chainsaw can cut more than firewood, how a mound of driveway snow can lead to marriage, and why it’s best to make sure your earbuds are plugged into your phone. And we’re just gettin’ warmed up! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Episode #149 of "The Shallow End with Schnebly and Toth” is what episode #148 could have been if it just applied itself for once. Lindsay introduces us to an airline pilot who was very good at his job ferrying passengers to other lands safely and comfortably – until he forgot to bring something with him that you and I carry whenever we travel internationally. (Sometimes, the skies aren’t so friendly.) Then, Jethro tells us about an auto thief who came fully prepared to carry out his professional responsibilities – until he realized that the planet itself was moving away from him at one foot per second while he was working with his tools. Was it the Apocalypse? End Times? A bad hangover? Tune in to discover how this thief found himself 20 feet in the air! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Why are we surprised that episode #148 of TSE wasn’t stolen before it aired? Because it's chock full of burglars, is why! JG regales us with the story of three men hell-bent on burglarizing a hamburger shop. The prospect of the cash inside drew them. What they couldn't have known was how a two-pound tub of Macaroni Salad may have been too tasty to leave behind – but would also be their undoing. Lindsay’s burglar story comes to us from the Garden State of New Jersey, where a young man made an interesting decision to burglarize a home one night because the lights were off, and he assumed no one was home. He was – how to put this? – wrong. Hilarity ensued when he decided to make his getaway using the aptly-named Lyft (‘cause what other name would a burglar like more?).

  • On episode #147, Lindsay starts the show with a cautionary tale on why it’s never good to alter Mother Nature’s distribution of native species. Hawaii in the late 1800s dealt with a problem of rats in the sugarcane fields by…well…importing an animal from the other side of the world. It did not end well! And speaking of animals (!), J.G. tells us about two Welshmen who naturally found themselves in a pub. On the Gold Coast of Australia. A bit in their cups. Who decided at 2 AM that it was the perfect time to realize a lifelong dream of swimming with dolphins. The decision did not please the local SeaWorld theme park. Or it's prized penguin, Dirk. And that’s just the beginning of Jethro’s story! Join us, won’t you? If you would like to advertise on The Box of Oddities, contact [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.

  • It’s not quite as good as our 150th episode will be, but episode #146 is close!  Jethro has a story about a man who hits on the idea of a perfect robbery. Using a real gun is not only illegal, but what if that thing went off and someone got hurt? This gentleman in Glasgow came up with a substitute that he thought was genius!  (It involves a rather phallic piece of produce. Oh, and a man’s dress sock.) The cast of Monty Python would have been proud! Then, did you know that fewer than one percent of prisoners contemplate an escape? Well, Lindsay tells us about a most unusual prison break from the great state of Michigan. It left authorities there baffled as they responded to word of this usual prison story late on a Sunday night.  It is positively dripping with irony! (And police cars.)

  • On episode #145, Jethro kicks things off with tales of tails - and other animal parts. Seems like the basic human need to smuggle living things from country to country is not only illegal and can result in prison time, but a rodent in your pants can cause other issues. Be glad you’re not a TSA agent as you listen to these stories. Then Lindsay regales us with the story of an inventive woman who needed some quick cash to pay her probation court fees. She came up with the perfect idea – forgetting that people actually can and do check their credit card activity from time to time.

  • Episode #144 of The Shallow End is chock full of vitamins and other nutrients!  (Okay. It’s not. But it is entertaining as hell.) Lindsay’s story comes to us from Kissimmee, FL, where a young woman and her boyfriend decided to celebrate the man’s birthday at a local motel by ordering a pizza delivered to their room. Everything was going swimmingly – until the police were called. Find out why! (Note: It involves drivers who will stop at nothing to drive home their opinions on the importance of gratuity.) Then Jethro takes us to the mountains above Tucson, AZ, where a gentleman was enjoying the sweeping views of the city before a late monsoon rain blew in to wash away the summer heat. What an unfortunate time to have to answer nature’s call. No worries!  When you’re a male, the whole Earth is your bathroom! (Shame about the timing of that lighting strike!)
