The Human Lightning Rod w/ Brent Blakeney

The Human Lightning Rod w/ Brent Blakeney

Author: Weird Science July 3, 2023 Duration: 53:45

We sit down with our friend and comic Brent Blakeney to discuss the unfortunate life of Roy Sullivan. Roy holds the Guinness record for being struck by lightning more than anyone else. Did God hate him or was it something more mundane? We are way off the rails in this booze filled episode, but it was a ton of fun!

Ever find yourself staring at the night sky or reading a bizarre news headline and wondering how any of it actually works? That’s the territory Weird Science lives in. Hosted by comedians Justin and Shane, this podcast digs into the strange, fascinating, and often hilarious intersections of real science, fringe theories, and what the future might hold. Each episode feels like a late-night conversation with friends, where genuine curiosity meets a comedic perspective. They regularly bring fellow stand-up comics into the mix, ensuring the discussions are accessible and entertaining, never dry or overly academic. You’ll hear them tackle everything from quantum oddities and cosmological mysteries to the latest in futurist thought, all through a lens that questions the conventional narrative. It’s a show for anyone who loves the thrill of a good “what if” but prefers their deep dives served with laughter and good rapport. Previously operating under the name Conspiracy Beer Me, the podcast has evolved into a dedicated exploration of the wonderfully weird corners of our universe. Tuning in means joining a community that values asking big, funny questions without always needing definitive answers. For those who enjoy the blend of humor and heady topics, this is a consistently engaging listen.
