This week on "It Sucks To Be You," Alex and Ben dive into the hilariously tragic tale of Harold Camping, the radio evangelist who turned predicting the end of the world into an art form... of failure! From 1994 to the infamous May 21, 2011, Camping used "biblical numerology" (aka terrible math) to convince thousands the sky was falling. Spoiler: it wasn't. Join us as we unpack the billboards, the millions spent, the lives upended, and the sheer audacity of a man who just couldn't get his doomsdays straight. If you love stories of prophetic face-plants, this one's a divine comedy of errors!
