We were in the car, like a Rolling Stone came on, and he said, there's a line in there about your mother. And I said, what? What I would do if I didn't feel like I was being accepted is choose an identity that other people can't have. I knew something had happened to me in the middle of the night, but I couldn't hold on to what had happened.

It's the radio segment that's making toilet time fun with a new kind of toilet paper called PDF Flush. Oh, no. PDF? PDF. It prints out all of your work emails directly onto your teepee so you can finally show your boss how you really feel about his daily meeting reminders. Oh, wow. That's as close as you'll come to reading your emails, Jeff. Until you're like, oh, no, that was important. It's Laser Stories, the segment where we read weird news stories around the globe just like everyone else does, except we've got a laser. Those other inbox incels just don't. This first Laser Story is out of the leader in lasers by a wide margin, Florida. A 31-year-old man named David Martinez woke up one morning, looked outside, and noticed something strange in his front yard.
Unknown 3:34
Okay. Dozens and dozens of tampons were everywhere. That's a lot of money. Yeah. Those things are not cheap. Pick those up and keep them. Yeah. Officials say there were 75 to 100 tampons in total hanging from trees, strewn over walkways, and even found inside his mailbox. Ain't nobody got time for that. Maybe it's his lawn's time of the month, you guys. You shouldn't judge. That's true. Changing seasons and whatnot. That's why.

How does the episode blend humor with unusual news?

Unknown 4:05
I get it. Immediately, David suspected the culprit, a 28-year-old woman named Gabrielle Franze. He dumped her a few weeks back, and she was having some issues with their breakup.
Dr. Elizabeth Poynter 4:16
Uh-oh.
Unknown 4:16
So police paid her a little visit to ask a few questions. And Gabrielle initially denied that she was there or even knew where her ex lived.
