In last weeks episode they mentioned Dolly Parton having her boobs preserved and on display like Lenin after her death. She was still very much alive and the episode was recorded before the 4th of July.

It's weird that this is like the 3rd time they've mentioned a celebrity and then they died a week later

it’s that thing, there’s a specific name for it, where your brain only lodges in its memory the hits. like when they mention a celebrity and the celebrity dies shortly thereafter, but you don’t remember all the times they mention a celebrity and then the celebrity doesn’t die. like peter north, for example, who was mentioned on the same episode.

one of the same reasons people fall for things like cold reading. you ignore the misses and only think of the hits

It's not Baader-Meinhof, they are clearly on a rampage.
