Collin’s brain is stewing in tincture and Vince McMahon is the soup du jour. We cover wrestling’s carnie roots, the “Golden Era”, union-busting, Justin brings up Jose Chung From Outer Space AGAIN, the Mountain Goats come up and we cap it all off with the McMan at the End of History.

On the second episode release of this week and the conclusion of our series on Enron, the boys show the trap snap shut on the Enron executives, and watch their ineffectual thrashing against their own stupidity, as well as discuss how things would have turned out if they'd just held out until after 9/11.

A late release folks at home, but a release of Part II of Enron came nonetheless. In this episode, the boys take a look at what Enron continued to do, the concept of getting greedy, and Justin says ALLUSIONS a lot because Mama Bird leaves a lot of seeds for us that'll be looked in to more next week, and the week after because this will be another four part series!

Once more the WITI boys find ourselves behind bars, and it won't be the last time. This episode, Collin covers the cruelties of the American penal system, explicable and inexplicable both.

In a more lighthearted and meandering episode, Justin takes us through the story of Charlene and Darlene, twin sisters with a hardware store and a dream, and access to the US military budget. Collin talks about enemies of the state and friends of the pod, and we all laugh a little too hard about it.

Our brief, accidental vacation week is over folks! To get us right back into the swing of things, Tyler takes us through a story, or the story that we can verify, of one smooth Austrian who conned the world over. In a departure from our regular content, we applaud this man several times through the episode.

This one's late cause of me folks at home, my apologies! I wasn't feeling quite up to recording and the medicine I'd taken was interfering with my ability to record.

Back to the story of the Most Devious Pole in America, Barry Minkow! After his initial stint in prison, Barry gets some good optics for the second time and... continues to take advantage of them! More movie recommendations, random bullshit, and Collin unsuccessfully trying to make me edit things out of the episode! Take that, Collin!

After a week break to sort out ourselves, we return with the first in a two part series about youthful entrepreneur and financial crime prodigy, Barry Minkow! After a too-long discussion on whether or not he's Polish (maybe), Barry's early start and rookie seasons in white color crime are brought up and discussed, and Collin won't shut the hell up about Saving Private Ryan.

On a slightly different episode of Worst In The Industry, the fellas surf the web together and have a chat about how websites make money both historically and presently, as well as understand some alternative models for monetizing websites and web services.

Plunging ourselves deep to the sea floor, this week the WITI boys attempt to wrap our many suckered limbs around the subject of octopus farming as Collin attempts to educate us all on the logistical, economical, and most importantly ethical implications of farming such an intelligent creature. Octopi are taking over the Earth after we all die and you heard it here first!

Settle in and let this weeks episode of Worst In The Industry eat its way right to your tender heart, and then through it! Covering Black Salve this week and boy oh boy did it make my skin itch!

Once more into the banana this week as the WITI boys continue to discuss monocultural farming, one of many instances of widespread pesticide abuse and the institutional problems that lead to it all.

The fruits of our labors have come, listeners, and these three nuts go absolutely bananas about the United Fruit Company's connections to American intelligence, the many MANY coups and interventions that the US was involved in in South America, and we talk a little bit about the Monroe Doctrine.
