Summary
Adam and guest co-host Atif Myers dive into the theory that the NFL's San Francisco 49ers are consistently one of the most injured teams in the league because of the hidden effects of practicing and playing right next to an electrical substation and the electromagnetic waves it emits. As fun and/or terrifying as the theory sounds, it seems like there might be a way more obvious but far less exciting culprit to blame.
