Ep. 107: Animal Attacks, Vol. 3

Where have Ian and Liv been? Vacation? That's hysterical. But they're back, and they're bringing you more episodes, starting with an After Hour episode following Ian & Jacob's latest episode. You literally could not BE more welcome. Also, Ian and Liv discuss the mortality of Lake Erie.

Praying your demons away doesn't always work.In this one, Ian is joined by his friend Jacob as they delve into the unsolved, violent, and dramatic history of the Beast of Gévaudan (and yes, Ian just learned he can make the little accent over the "é"). A seemingly mythical beast is terrorizing 1700s rural France, maiming and killing hundreds. And from the king's palace to the outskirts of society, panic is rapidly spreading as not one person can figure out how to stop the beast. Also, Jacob highlights the failure of Arizona's public schools. Ian spoils Christianity's biggest plot twist.

Y'all asked for more content, and Ian & Liv really scraped the bottom of the barrel to give it to you. Enjoy your hosts of Disaster Hour as they sit and talk about absolutely nothing for 27 minutes after recording episode 108.Really, we cannot understate the relevance of their conversation enough.

A face full of bleach is often unpredictable. In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a massive, mile-wide tornado that struck Joplin, Missouri in 2011. The damage to the city was catastrophic, including the total destruction of a major hospital, making this tornado one of costliest and deadliest tornados in recorded history. Also, Liv locks her cats in the basement. Ian is Akron's biggest slut.

Friends don't let friends play with venomous animals.In this one, Ian and Liv are joined by Ian's neighbor & Liv's former coworker Emma for the THIRD compilation of animal attacks! Tigers, alligators, bears, and venomous critters top the list in this installment of Natural Selection's finest moments. Also, Ian struggles learning new words. Emma is a feminist icon. Liv has childhood trauma associated with scorpions & iCarly.

Never join a cult designed for 144,000 people. In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a shockingly recent cult, where the leader was not only a crazy white lady, but also an alcoholic, conspiracy theorist, and an abusive thief. Her followers were tricked into giving everything they owned,and it was all for the false promise of taking up residency in the 5th Dimension with Robin Williams, Jesus Christ, Whitney Houston, Buddha, and Trump. Clearly, this is all very legitimate. Also, Liv endorses pickle ball. Ian aspires to be a Babylonian whore. Dakota thinks this is all bullshit.

Chivalry is NOT dead, though not for lack of trying.In this one, Liv and Ian read angry and hateful comments from Disaster Hour's angriest fans, coming to you live (definitely not live) from Ian's patio!Also, Liv plans a Polly Pocket birthday. Ian sees a car he likes.

Waterparks are the result of humanity's hubris of science.In this one, Ian and Liv revisit one of their favorite episodes for Disaster Hour's 3rd Birthday: Action Park! Throughout the 1980s, Action Park was an outdoor waterpark with waterslides that were straight out of a Stephen King novel. They were dangerous, exhilarating, and built with zero professional architects or rollercoaster engineers. Guests were injured, the park faced lawsuits, and the owner continued dodging the law for decades. Welcome to Action Park! Also, Justinepremieres as a new guest. Liv doesn't know how to use a calculator. Libby has imaginary friends. Dylan continues winning at life. Bob jumped off a cliff once. Ian confuses Tony Hawk and Stephen Hawking.

There's a right and wrong way to riot, everyone.In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a riot that broke out in Vancouver after the 2011 Stanley Cup finals. And it's confirmed to be a fact, that the best way to mentally process your team's loss, is destroying the city in which they're based. Hashtag sarcasm.Also, Liv's high school math teacher is dead. Ian fantasizes about being placed under house arrest.

Dangerously close to danger.In this one, Ian & Liv talk about a cruise from 2019 that got turned upside down (almost literally) when the ship lost power mid-cruise in rough seas. The rescue efforts were daunting, passengers were injured, the grand piano was damaged, but the snow grotto was unharmed.Also, Liv faces her fear of cruises. Ian loses all creativity.
