#149: A Dangling Shame
Episode #149 of "The Shallow End with Schnebly and Toth” is what episode #148 could have been if it just applied itself for once. Lindsay introduces us to an airline pilot who was very good at his job ferrying passengers to other lands safely and comfortably – until he forgot to bring something with him that you and I carry whenever we travel internationally. (Sometimes, the skies aren’t so friendly.) Then, Jethro tells us about an auto thief who came fully prepared to carry out his professional responsibilities – until he realized that the planet itself was moving away from him at one foot per second while he was working with his tools. Was it the Apocalypse? End Times? A bad hangover? Tune in to discover how this thief found himself 20 feet in the air! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

#148: Ratted Out By Salad
Why are we surprised that episode #148 of TSE wasn’t stolen before it aired? Because it's chock full of burglars, is why! JG regales us with the story of three men hell-bent on burglarizing a hamburger shop. The prospect of the cash inside drew them. What they couldn't have known was how a two-pound tub of Macaroni Salad may have been too tasty to leave behind – but would also be their undoing. Lindsay’s burglar story comes to us from the Garden State of New Jersey, where a young man made an interesting decision to burglarize a home one night because the lights were off, and he assumed no one was home. He was – how to put this? – wrong. Hilarity ensued when he decided to make his getaway using the aptly-named Lyft (‘cause what other name would a burglar like more?).

#147: Shut Up Dirk!
On episode #147, Lindsay starts the show with a cautionary tale on why it’s never good to alter Mother Nature’s distribution of native species. Hawaii in the late 1800s dealt with a problem of rats in the sugarcane fields by…well…importing an animal from the other side of the world. It did not end well! And speaking of animals (!), J.G. tells us about two Welshmen who naturally found themselves in a pub. On the Gold Coast of Australia. A bit in their cups. Who decided at 2 AM that it was the perfect time to realize a lifelong dream of swimming with dolphins. The decision did not please the local SeaWorld theme park. Or it's prized penguin, Dirk. And that’s just the beginning of Jethro’s story! Join us, won’t you? If you would like to advertise on The Box of Oddities, contact [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.

#146: Deadly Produce
It’s not quite as good as our 150th episode will be, but episode #146 is close! Jethro has a story about a man who hits on the idea of a perfect robbery. Using a real gun is not only illegal, but what if that thing went off and someone got hurt? This gentleman in Glasgow came up with a substitute that he thought was genius! (It involves a rather phallic piece of produce. Oh, and a man’s dress sock.) The cast of Monty Python would have been proud! Then, did you know that fewer than one percent of prisoners contemplate an escape? Well, Lindsay tells us about a most unusual prison break from the great state of Michigan. It left authorities there baffled as they responded to word of this usual prison story late on a Sunday night. It is positively dripping with irony! (And police cars.)

#145: Leave The Brass Section Out Of It
On episode #145, Jethro kicks things off with tales of tails - and other animal parts. Seems like the basic human need to smuggle living things from country to country is not only illegal and can result in prison time, but a rodent in your pants can cause other issues. Be glad you’re not a TSA agent as you listen to these stories. Then Lindsay regales us with the story of an inventive woman who needed some quick cash to pay her probation court fees. She came up with the perfect idea – forgetting that people actually can and do check their credit card activity from time to time. Wanna turn a simple misdemeanor into a full-fledged felony?
