Apocalypse game, story 2: the door-urinating professor
Story 2: 43-year-old CSUN math professor Timur Petrov charged with two misdemeanor counts of urinating on a colleague's door, caught on camera. The hosts debate what counts as 'twice,' how one identifies suspected urine, and what dispute could drive a professor to this. Verdict: the end is near. The story turns heavy: a host reflects that Jesus loves 'this dude' and died for him — 'He loves Dan. He loves Troy. He loves Ben' — just the same.
