Dude, That's F****d Up

When you're a 14th century royal family at the top of the power pyramid, how do you marry up? Well, you know what they say, if you can't marry up, you marry in! In this episode*, Erin and Nicole discuss the absolute havoc marriage politics wreaked on royal bloodlines through centuries of royal inbreeding, all in the name of power. *CW: Incest --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

During his reign, Louis XIV and his two buttholes commissioned the most beautiful, extravagant castle in all of France: The Palace of Versailles. However, in this episode, Erin and Nicole learn that the castle was basically just one large toilet. That's right, Versailles was essentially a urinal for 4,000+ people. And if everyone was just sh*ttin' and p*ssin' in the hallways, you're correct to assume their overall hygiene was seriously lacking! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

The f*cked up thing about this week's subject is that most people probably don't know about this woman! Erin and Nicole are delighted to be talking about one of the first blues musicians to ever be recorded, a pioneer in the genre of the "Dirty Blues," a woman whose work in the 1930s paved the way for the WAPs of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion - it's time to get nasty (in the best way!) with Lucille Bogan! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

What does the Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea (allegedly) have to do with space aliens and cults and eugenics? Kind of a lot! Erin and Nicole talk about the founder of Celestial Seasonings, his interest in "The Urantia Book," and the rantings of the author of that book, Dr. Sadler, who was a eugenicist and had ties to W.K. Kellogg of the Battle Creek Sanitarium (and Corn Flakes)! There's a lot going on here, and none of it is soothing or even good. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

Everyone has their little quirks and preferences when they're booking travel arrangements: aisle seat versus window, park and ride versus car service, even whether or not you give yourself enough time for a cocktail and a leisurely perusal of the Hudson News. But Nancy and Ronald Reagan might have taken their quirks around travel planning too far? Erin and Nicole are incredulous discussing the astrologer to the Reagan family, Joan Quigley, and the impact she had on their scheduling post-Reagan assassination attempt. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

It's not often the world plans for a big ol' disaster that just doesn't disast. Older millennials will recall NYE 1999, when the entire world braced for the apocalypse and then nothing really happened. In fact, Erin and Nicole lived through it and the worst thing to happen that night was Erin's parents makin' out in front of Nicole. They're breaking down the lead up to and petering out of Y2K!

Thanksgiving looks a little different this year, but there's one constant - the pressure to uphold capitalism! So of course the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a go. But based on past balloon catastrophes, it maybe should have been canceled? Like, permanently?

Pennsylvania isn't only helping save our democracy this week, they're giving us the weirdest cryptid to date: The Squonk! This creature is a mashup of a flacid Pigman of Vermont and that meme of James Van Der Beek crying on Dawson's Creek. Not to be confused with Squonking, which is some sort of vaping?

Erin and Nicole aren't 100%, but they think they've landed on the main reason anyone would consent to Russ McKamey torturing them in his "extreme haunt" experience: it has to be a sexual fetish, right? Why else would you want to visit McKamey Manor?! The name promises terry cloth bathrobes and a mint on your pillow, but it delivers a near drowning in a dirty bathtub and a helmet full of diarrhea water.

This week, Erin and Nicole curtsey for the Queen as they discuss her royal frightness, the (allegedly) haunted Queen Mary! But the Queen's herstory is so much more than some greasy ghosts- she was an old Hollywood celebrity cruise liner, a WWII transport and now she's a hotel and a bunch of restaurants. She's seen some sh*t, but she's still regal as f*ck. -- SHOW INFORMATION Hosted and produced by Nicole Mackie and Erin Saul, as part of the Whohaha Podcast Network Merch: Dude, That’s F****d Up Store Patreon: Patreon.com/DTFUPodcast Facebook Page: @DFTUPodcast Facebook Group: Listeners of Dude, That's F****d Up Instagram: @DTFUPodcast Twitter: @DTFUPodcast YouTube: DTFUPodcast Website: DTFUPodcast.com Email: DTFUPodcast@gmail.com Music: The Hands of Stone Artwork: Brad Walters Design Subscribe: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

U.S. listeners, Wednesday, September 30th is the deadline to fill out the census! Since you've probably already done it because you're excellent, knock on Erin and Nicole's door for some "fun" - that's in quotes because you know that's DTFU code for f****ed up - facts about the U.S. Census. (And a bunch of ranting about our judicial system. Sorry, I tried to stop them.) Are you registered to vote in the U.S?

South Park is known for being absurd, which is perhaps why people aren't aware Casa Bonita (Season 7, Episode 11) is a real-life place.

As if we this year weren't enough, there's an evil doll on the loose? That's right, this week Erin and Nicole are talking about the rumor that the Annabelle Doll escaped from the Warren's Occult Museum. Well, not really, because that specific conversation is pretty brief (spolier: she didn't), but they DO talk about the history of the doll and whether or not her raggedy ass is really possessed. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

Erin and Nicole hate pranks (they're mean-spirited!), so they're glad it's seemingly harder to prank people these days, what with caller ID and working from home. But there was a time long before the internet was invented, and before the telephone was in every home, when it was very, very easy to prank people in big ways. And a young man by the name of Horace de Vere Cole was seriously taking advantage of just how easy it was. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dude-thats-fd-up8/support

Did you know that before 1982, you could open a pill bottle without a hacksaw?! Can you imagine all the milliseconds you saved? But on the other hand, your pills might be poison.
