Chapter 1: What humorous anecdotes open this episode?
Oh, man, he was twerking out that guy. You hear that? He couldn't take it. He broke fast. He had those aliens up in his head. He broke fast. He was just, like, down for the count really, really quick there. That was, um... What is this here? Yeah, it's... That'd be what it'd be, right? Hey, everybody. Welcome to Nick the Rat Radio. It's January 14th, 2026. It's Wednesday. 10-11. It's 10-11. 6-7.
I got a lot of stuff going on visually here. I could disable half of it. Don't really matter. The only thing is if I switch that off, is that going to close? Nah, it doesn't close. Hang on, let's turn that off. Come on, let me fucking shrink here. Podcast shouldn't have video. It's so distracting. It's a distracting thing. There's no reason for any of this. Um.
The world's falling apart, everybody. Cheers. Let's take a sip. The unraveling is at a breakneck speed. I would say it's the fastest now. than i've ever seen it it could only ramp up it's kind of like you know climate change every year they're always like oh yeah it was hotter this year than it was last year hottest year on record for the past five days it's it's getting a little bit wild um
And, and I think, um, in life we should all have, uh, rules to live by. And, and I feel that, um, I personally have some, uh, rules to live by. And I, I think it's, I think it's to kind of like sweep the steps, um, help, help the next, help the next set of people, you know, just kind of, um, instead of, instead of complaining, because it's very easy to complain. Everybody's complaining, man.
Everybody's just like, Hey, complain, complain, complain. You know, it's hot air. Hot air does nothing. Sure, people hear you, they might be like, oh, I did not know any of that. But, you know, after a while, you hear everything. Everybody knows something. It gets kind of boring complaining after a while. So action. Action is the only savior for reality.
If you want your reality to be saved, you have to take action today. So go to nicktheratradio.com and click donate. You big dumb dumb, come on.
coffee drinking coffee still um still on alcohol break it's when you when you don't drink for a while you start to realize that the whole world is um is drunk every every um it's everywhere there's advertisements everywhere everybody everywhere is drinking even i was i was watching nick the rat radio And I was always just drinking.
I hate to talk about this because it's something that's just always in your face anyway because it's on TV, it's on the radio, it's everywhere. It's wild. It's kind of like taking over society. I wonder if people, if society as a whole mostly didn't drink or something, if the world would be a different place.
um, New York City is, um, the only reason that there's, like, a nightlife, or if there's actually any city that has, like, a nightlife, it's, it's basically fueled by alcohol, it's an alcohol-fueled, uh, society, and it's, it's kind of strange, because it is, it is a poison, but it's, it's everywhere, it's very, it's invasive, it's, um, And they give it to kids, too.

Chapter 2: What are the hosts' thoughts on distractions in podcasting?
I wasn't really complaining. I was... I was thinking. But what I can do as a creative, helpful thing is to figure out ways to combat the unraveling, the splitting apart of reality. We need a psychic glue. We need to figure out how to come together.
as as as a whole without without losing who you are and what it is you you'd like to do of course but but we need to opposite of diverge converge we need to converge We need all the Verge to get cummed on. And I think that we're going to explore some ways that we might be able to do that tonight. It's going to be explosive of an episode, I would say.
You're going to learn stuff tonight on how to respect your fellow... I don't know. Your fellow... Is there a female fella? Hello? Is this thing on? Oh, I gotta load up Winamp. Yeah, it's hard to do a smooth transition when you don't have the software loaded. Now I know why the biggest problem in the universe ended. It was probably way too hard to do that show.
Imagine having to deal with that person on that show. That must have been really hard for that person on that show to deal with that person on the show. We got to load up the Winamp. We're going to play some music here. What do we got here? We got this folder. We got that folder. We got this folder. We got Purple Cat. We got Creatures of the Night. That's what we are. We'll be back.
Good night, guys. Oh, finally, that thing came. Cool. I was wondering when it took two weeks for those to get out there. Christmas is way over.

Chapter 3: How do the hosts view the unraveling of society?
But Merry Christmas there, Tunnel Rat. Enjoy. I'm going to start to use the mail system a little bit more. I've been watching that Postman movie with Kevin Costner. Whatever happened to Kevin Costner? He didn't have like a... Did he put a hamster in his asshole? Tunnel Rat is closer to the PO Box, so perhaps that's why he got it before other people, maybe. I sent a couple out.
What is this thing here? Hold on, I'm getting VLC errors popping up all over the damn place. Turn that off. Vilk.
vl sizzies all right we hold on a second we need to open up our notes for the show that's how you that's how you do this professionally right the professionals usually have notes open i have a mess with my microphone settings and it does sound pretty good to me i don't know if uh everybody else could notice it but i think um i think i'm min maxing the mic right now i think uh it's i could probably mess with some more
Let me mess with the mic more right now while everybody's, while it's live. That's probably the best way to do it, right? Let's see here. What do we do this here? What is, wait, no, we don't, no, that's not good. We want lows, right? We want the lows. We don't want that. Get rid of the highs. Get rid of the highs. You want the lows.

Chapter 4: What rules do the hosts believe we should live by?
Wait, you want the mid too? You want some mids? I'll throw some mids in there. Wait, why are there two mids? If there's two mids, is that even like... Wait, whoa. Well, my EQ graph is wild right now. I'm going to turn all that off. I got lost. Rats get lost sometimes. They start digging around. Next thing you know, they're in your toilet bowl. The alligators and stuff.
I think signs that the unraveling occurs, there is usually a telltale sign. I think through the unraveling, memes and stuff become big. Like, you can't make a meme. You can't make something popular. You know, you can't create a viral anything.
um unless you're in wuhan china but the thing is if you really wanted to do this it it happens it seems like it's like a quantum fluctuation in reality that sometimes spits out something popular uh I don't know how to benefit from this because it's random. Um, and this is just something, I'm just telling you what I see because we are currently the, this is happening more frequently.
I think, I think the, the, uh, the meme stream is becoming, um, saturated. I think the saturation is, is, is occurring. Um,
like chocolate rain and all that shit but sometimes and sometimes these people they'll they'll take it and they'll run with it and they'll become either famous from it and they'll just keep doing it and they'll go to conventions and they'll be uh um they'll be barbed from stranger things cashing that check for forever uh sometimes they'll be the There was a girl that didn't do anything.
She was in a Best Buy ad. Sometimes, you know, that happens a lot with people. Sometimes they just have a look to them and people become attracted to them. But I think it's the unraveling makes these people attractive to society at certain times as a whole. And she was, she was in some GameStop ads or some shit. And she was like working at GameStop or she, it was just fake. I don't really know.
I try not to spend much of my life stalking people that benefit my life in zero way. But
they're forced upon us um and then she vanished for a long time and then she came back and she did she she gamestop got their their hooks in her i think this happened recently um i'm not too sure uh i should probably research this uh but gamestop did a trade anything for for store credit thing i wonder if the gamestop trade anything Trade Anything Day. That happened on December 6th.
So this girl is still milking the meme. She came back for ads for this thing, for GameStop's Trade Anything. People were going in and trading pieces of paper. They would come in, they would trade paper, and they would get like a $5 store credit, which is not going to really buy you anything in the store. I'm sure it was probably only one trade

I've been taking my son in pill form lately. Have you? Nice. I have... What do you call it? Bioavailable son in pill form. What do you call it? See, that's how retarded I am.

And you get a lot more vitamin C if it's a liposomal compound. Pescatarian. I've been, like, so my buddy got his head blown off Saturday. Saturday?
Yeah.
Yeah, so it's on video. He was walking to his car. It was like 9.34 in the morning, and two people were walking past him on the sidewalk. He was kind of in the street getting in his car, and one person kind of came around the car. He was taking his phone out of his back pocket as he was going to get into his car.
That person grabbed his phone, and he turned, and he punched him, and the other person shot him and blew the back of the head off. Oh yeah. Yeah. Dad, three kids, 44, this beautiful Saturday.
