#177 After 2 Beers: Stinky Wrestling Fans, Space Trips, and Sperm Racing

After 2 Beers

The After Two Beers podcast returns after a brief hiatus with hosts Dutch Dalton, Kimmy Gibbler, and Puddin' picking up right where they left off – bringing their unique brand of conversational humor to strange and fascinating stories from around the world.
The episode takes listeners on a journey beginning with the hosts' recent experience at a local wrestling event. Despite impressive athleticism and entertainment value, they couldn't help but notice the overwhelming locker room smell permeating the venue. "The moment you hit that door, it was like getting hit in the face with a sledgehammer of smell," Dutch recounts. They discover this isn't just a local phenomenon – there's an entire online community dedicated to discussing the hygiene challenges at wrestling events.
A darker topic emerges as they explore speculation about a possible serial killer operating in New England, connecting discoveries of human remains across Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The conversation expands into America's fascination with true crime and serial killers, with Puddin' sharing FBI statistics that approximately 50 active serial killers are operating in the United States – significantly fewer than the estimated 300 in the 1960s and 70s. "You never know who you're next to," comments one listener, highlighting the unsettling reality behind our true crime obsession.
The hosts then turn their attention to Gayle King and Katy Perry's recent Blue Origin space flight, marveling at how a quarter-million-dollar experience lasted just eleven minutes. "It takes longer to drive from my house to the east side of Richmond, Indiana, than they went to space," Dutch observes. The phallic shape of Jeff Bezos' rocket provides ample material for the hosts' trademark humor.
Between discussions of a Florida curio shop selling human remains on Facebook Marketplace and an upcoming "sperm racing" league in Los Angeles, the episode maintains its perfect balance of the bizarre, humorous, and occasionally profound.
