This week, KB breaks down:

• 🎤 Kimmel vs. Melania — Why calling someone an "expected widow" isn't a joke, it's just mean. KB explains exactly where political satire ends and bitter ranting begins — from the perspective of an actual comic.
• 🏛️ White House Correspondents' Dinner Shooting Reaction — The conspiracy theories, the media's bizarre refusal to state the obvious, and why Twitter is proof that society is circling the drain.
• 😷 The Measles Panic — KB had them. The Brady Bunch had them. Nobody died. Calm down.
• 🧘 22 Buddhist Monks Arrested With 250 LBS of Weed — Orange robes. False suitcase walls. Pure chaos.
• 👟 Barefoot Boston Marathon Runner — A guy ran 26.2 miles with no shoes and no training. KB has thoughts.
• 🌭 Wisconsin State Fair Sporkies 2026 — New food combinations that have absolutely no business existing, plus KB's all-time State Fair go-to order.
• ⛳ KB Life Coach — A dad wants to skip his daughter's 2nd birthday to play in a golf tournament. KB delivers the verdict.

KB's Unemployed Show is the no-filter, comedy-first news commentary show for people who are tired of being told what to think. Funny, opinionated, and always real.

Then we pivot to a guy who thought the best way to beat Spirit Airlines was to duct-tape raw meat to his torso. Was he wrong? Was he a genius? We'll let you decide. (He was wrong.)

But first — KB survived a 300-year flood. Again. For the fourth time. With a broken garage door spring, a locked-in car, and a Home Depot rental line that tested his morality. Did he give up the last carpet fan to his neighbor? Absolutely not. Was he an ass? He doesn't think so. You might disagree.

This is the news commentary show that doesn't apologize for laughing at the dumb things people do — because someone has to. Real stories, zero filter, maximum sarcasm, and the kind of takes your favorite radio host would drop if they had nothing left to lose.

New episode every week. Hit Follow and never miss a moment of the unemployed chaos

On Day 120 of KB's unemployment journey, this Masters Week special delivers an exclusive sit-down with five-time PGA Tour champion and SiriusXM golf analyst Mark Wilson, who breaks down Augusta National's notorious greens, the elevation surprises, Magnolia Lane emotions, and whether Scottie Scheffler is truly the Tiger Woods of this era.

KB kicks things off with a hilarious tribute to the lost glory of metal spikes on asphalt — a nostalgia trip every golfer over 40 will feel in their soul. Then it's National Zoo Day, which somehow leads to an absolutely brilliant bit about why you can never lose an Amish kid at the Milwaukee County Zoo. Trust us, it tracks.

Then KB goes full Life Coach mode on a TikToker named Squash whose date ordered $220 surf and turf with caviar, ate exactly three bites, pushed the plate away, and then lost her mind when he asked for a box. KB's verdict? Cheap at twice the price.

Back to golf — Mark Wilson debates LIV vs. PGA Tour, the rise of the TGL indoor golf league, the greatest shots in Masters history (Bubba Watson's hook gets the nod), and who he's picking to slip on the green jacket this year: Xander Schauffele.

KB closes with a bombshell: he just landed his dream retirement job as a starter at Erin Hills — home of five USGA championships. Not bad for an unemployed guy.

1:04:43 – 👋 Outro: "Make Good Choices"

After watching Netflix's Mindhunter, KB was inspired to actually read the Unabomber's manifesto — and found himself floored by how much of it maps onto today's society. Political correctness, over-socialization, social division, government dependency, and the erosion of the family unit — Kaczynski wrote about all of it decades before it became daily headlines. KB reads key excerpts and lets you decide what to make of it.

KB makes it crystal clear: he does not condone, advocate, or sympathize with anything Ted Kaczynski did. This is a discussion of ideas — not the man.

Also on today's show: the Artemis II moon mission launches (and why aren't more people talking about it?), Tiger Woods steps back citing health and family, Pizza Hut Canada drops a hot dog stuffed crust that puts America to shame, and KB investigates "Meaties" — a ground beef breakfast cereal that might be the greatest April Fool's hoax ever pulled off.

Whether you follow every nominee or just enjoy the annual outrage, this episode covers the biggest debates heading into the ceremony: who should win, who will win, who’s wildly overrated, and which films are getting more prestige than they deserve. Along the way, the crew shares bold predictions, hot takes, and KB’s very questionable method for forecasting Oscar winners.

If you love movies, pop culture, and a little awards-season nonsense, this episode is for you.
