This week it’s a theme show sharing wild and funny animal-related mishaps alongside listener submissions. Amy kicks things off with a creepy tale of a demonic cat squished flat in her grandma’s garage and a vicious rooster that terrorized her until her mom took drastic action. She also recounts a childhood prank where her siblings tricked her into getting bitten on the nose by a caged parrot, and the heartbreaking loss of her tiny Yorkshire Terrier, Fame, to the neighbor’s Rottweilers. James shares a traumatic chase by a ferocious swan that pinched his backside and a college dorm saga where a mouse sent his wife, Jen, levitating in panic. Listener stories amplify the chaos: David describes a terrifying encounter with a Cujo-like dog that bit him multiple times as a child, Miriam shares a funny moment where a dog mistook her cousin’s red shirt for a fire hydrant, and others recount a bobcat biting a hand, a schnauzer clamping onto a finger, a classroom rat turning into a buzzsaw, an owl attacking in Italy, a police dog tackling a camper, and squirrels chasing kids after a rock-throwing misadventure. This episode is a hilarious, cringe-inducing romp through the unpredictable world of animal attacks.
