    203: Diesel Fumes And Nazi Sweat
    Apr 8 2026
    Because even chaos takes a holiday… It’s a Shallow End classic. Due to Easter weekend, we’re cracking open the vault and re-releasing one of our all-time favorite episodes—and trust us, it’s worth resurrecting. JG dives headfirst (as one does) into the spectacularly ridiculous sinking of a World War II Nazi U-Boat—because sometimes history isn’t just tragic… It’s unintentionally hilarious. Meanwhile, Lindsay asks an important question that absolutely no one should be qualified to answer: Can you coach a Little League team all the way to the World Series… and still find time to rob 13 banks? (Spoiler: apparently, yes.) It’s incompetence, ambition, bad decisions, and baffling life choices—all wrapped up in one beautifully broken episode. If any defects in this episode are discovered, do not attempt to repair them yourself. Please return to an authorized Shallow End service center… or just laugh and let it happen.

    202: The “Maybe Don’t Do That” Episode
    Apr 1 2026
    What happens when criminals make every possible wrong decision… and then double down? In this episode of The Shallow End, we dive headfirst into a series of real-life stories that prove you don’t need a mastermind to commit a crime—sometimes all you need is spectacularly bad judgment. First, meet Darren Kimpton—a burglar having what can only be described as an aggressively terrible day. After botching one break-in and leaving behind a literal trail of blood (yes, DNA included), he decides the logical next step is… to try again. What follows is less of a crime and more of a live-action surrender. Then, things shift from clumsy crime to courtroom chaos. A woman named Kimberly Carroll attempts to attend a virtual court hearing via Zoom—while driving. What unfolds is a painfully awkward, wildly viral moment involving a skeptical judge, a very obvious lie, and one of the most expensive car rides imaginable. Plus, listener stories that will make you question how anyone boards the wrong plane—and doesn’t realize it until takeoff. This episode is packed with: Dumb criminal fails (the kind that practically solve themselves) Viral courtroom moments you have to hear to believe Absurd real-life stories that feel scripted… but aren’t The kind of humor that makes you grateful you’re not that person If you love true crime with a comedic twist, unbelievable real-life mishaps, and stories where everything goes wrong in the most entertaining way possible—welcome to The Shallow End.

    201: Karaoke Night → Gunfire (Because Florida)
    Mar 25 2026
    What starts as a routine flight out of Mogadishu turns into one of the strangest “instant karma” stories you’ll ever hear… when a man in a wheelchair boards a plane with a deadly secret—and what happens next defies every expectation. This is a true story of chaos, survival, and a twist so unbelievable it sounds fictional… but isn’t. Then, we head to Clearwater, Florida—because of course we do—where a karaoke night goes completely off the rails. One man waits patiently for his moment in the spotlight… until a broken karaoke machine pushes him into a decision that lands him in handcuffs instead of the chorus. Plus: a listener story featuring a literal “Rick Roll” (gravity-assisted), and a reminder that sometimes the most dangerous place on Earth… is an open mic night. In this episode: A real-life airplane bombing attempt with a bizarre outcome A Florida karaoke meltdown involving a gun (yes, really) Listener humiliation at a Rick Astley concert The fine line between performance art and public disaster If you love true dumb criminal stories, unbelievable real-life events, and dark humor with a twist of “what did I just hear?”—welcome back to The Shallow End.
