This episode gets into Brendan’s plasma exchange experience, the viral hantavirus cruise ship story, conspiracy theories around the outbreak, and why cruise ships already sound like a nightmare. The guys also talk about the Cecil Hotel, Richard Ramirez, the Elisa Lam case, haunted L.A. stories, and what it feels like walking through one of the creepiest hotels in America.
They also react to a shocking airport runway incident, a tourist throwing rocks at a Hawaiian monk seal, viral fight videos, Nina Drama, Diego Pavia, Akash Singh leaving Flagrant, serial killer fan girls, bad sushi, and Bryan’s stories about old Venice, gangs, and L.A. changing over the years.
The Fighter and The Kid brings comedy, viral news, true crime, UFC-adjacent stories, and ridiculous internet moments with Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen.
