## Resource

What are the strangest ways leaders throughout time have died? The list is never ending but the Chubstep boys cover some of the oddest in this week's episode. First they cover if it is socially acceptable to eat popsicles as a grown man, being hired out as a Karen, guest Patrick Bertoletti winning a banana eating contest, and buying weapons as a joke. For the main topic the guys discuss a monkey bite that caused 250,000 deaths, when a nose bleed goes bad, getting killed by your human head trophy, laughing to death, over the top mourning, heading into battle blind and becoming a human leg rest
