Ep 316 | MONSTERS: Hasan Piker & Alec Baldwin

In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with takes on Neil Young’s latest boycott before shifting from small-town life to the online chaos surrounding Hasan Piker (HasanAbi) after new clips from his livestream spark backlash over his treatment of his dog. The crew unpacks the viral outrage, the culture of performative empathy, and why celebrity image often matters more than real behavior. The discussion turns to Alec Baldwin’s Hamptons car crash and the strange streak of bad luck that seems to follow him. That leads into a Half-Assed Top 10 exploring what could have possibly caused the accident. From there, the team reacts to Portland’s naked protest, a North Carolina therapist accused of using AI to research poisoning her husband, and an Alabama police chief forced to resign after a viral scandal. The show wraps with “End of the World,” featuring Suge Knight’s take on Diddy’s prison sentence and a final reflection on accountability, fame, and self-inflicted disasters. Today’s guests on "Normal World" are Brett Brockmeuller and Jimmy McCartney. Sponsors Craftco Buy online at https://flyingacespirits.com/ — use code BLAZE for free shipping.
