Stick Shift Nostalgia | 12-19-25

Strap in for Ventilation Friday, a raw and irreverent journey through the absurdities of modern life with your host, Lionel. From the “red pill” truth about Santa Claus to the legal ethics of cloning yourself just to inherit your own debt, Lionel skewers everything from holiday pretentiousness to high-tech true crime. Whether he is dissecting muscle car nostalgia, the revolutionary history of the indoor toilet, or the perils of using Irish slang in the wrong pub, no topic is too niche or too sacred for this fast-paced deep dive into our bizarre reality. It’s a cocktail of biting wit, cultural critiques, and “scholarly” verbal aggression designed to help you navigate the “wonderful” lies of the modern world. Learn more about your ad choices.
