Episode Description
Scotland's Tartan Army showed up to the 2026 World Cup in Boston — and drank the entire city dry. Sam Adams says its Boston Taproom sold four times as much beer as on a typical Fourth of July weekend, forcing an emergency Saturday-morning delivery just to keep kegs flowing. One bar tripled its St. Patrick's Day sales. Another ran out of everything. Also, Dallas police got called on rowdy Brits and a Japanese fan who can't speak English but is living his best World Cup life. Is the World Cup actually uniting the world? 
 
Then — Kevin Bacon is temporarily changing his name to Kevin "Bean." We explain why. 
The comment section has questions we need to confront — specifically about Doug the chinchilla's burial.
 
Plus: Senator Curtis is going on a long walk for America 250, and we still want to ask about his hair. Do you get the ick when women drive men around? And a guy on social media is eating at Chinese restaurants until he gets food poisoning — is that genius marketing or just unhinged?
