Jay and Jim

Ever thought about what it would be like to create your own country? Picture this: You're the leader, you get to choose the currency, the bartering system, the military and so much more. That's the epic journey Jay and I embark on this episode – welcome to the beautiful chaos of Jlandia!

But before we dive into nation-building, we've got other juicy tidbits to tickle your curiosity. Let's talk haunted houses. Not just the creepy stories, but the hidden health hazards lurking beneath the creaking floorboards. We also unravel the enigmatic tale of Dr. Marijuana Pepsi, and the resilience of honey found buried in Egyptian tombs. Did you know that honey could survive that long? Neither did we! And just when you think it couldn't get any weirder, we take a detour into the wildly bizarre world of Japanese TV shows.

To wrap up our whirlwind tour, we tackle the embargo's impact on the Cuban people. We discuss how it's depicted in films – specifically, the mouthwatering Cuban sandwiches featured in the movie Chef. Then, it's back to Jlandia where we negotiate our economic prospects and draft a letter to the President of the United States. So, buckle up and join us on this rollercoaster ride of laughs, learning, and, of course, the chance to win a unique J and J erryday t-shirt!
