Episode Description: What’s the most creative way you’ve ever sought revenge—or celebrated a birthday? 🎂🐍 Sandy and Tricia kick off this episode with a jaw-dropping story about a child prodigy in Dallas who achieved nuclear fusion at age 12.

But the real fun comes with tales of revenge at zoos and wildlife centers. Want to name a cockroach after your ex? Or send a video of an elephant pooping for $10? The duo explores the wildest ways people channel their resentment, from frozen rats to feral cats, all for a good cause. (“I’m going to name a snake after you. Because you hate snakes!”)
