Wooden planes + gasoline = fiery death in 1908. Darrell rants about fat-guy plane seats, then dives into the first fatal plane crashes — from a 1908 army demo to a 1913 Italian fireball that roasted passengers alive for several minutes. 1908: Orville Wright’s passenger dies in crash 1913: Italian dirigible burns mid-air Passengers cooked alive in wooden fuselages Jason jokes about prairie women on wings. Darrell hates reclining seats and swamp ass. At least planes aren’t made of kindling anymore.

Before anesthesia, surgeons used a hammer, whiskey, and a prayer. In the very first episode of Waywut?, Darrell drags Jason down the bloody rabbit hole of medical horror stories — from 1800s “ether frolics” to secret plutonium injections in 1945. No lectures, just two middle-aged dorks asking: How the hell did we figure this out? Patients bit through leather straps during amputations Dentists turned ether into party drugs Government injected plutonium into a guy… and paid him for his glowing pee Jason’s shoulder surgery sparks a rant on pain empathy, cow licks, and why you should never post your stitches on Facebook.
