Weird World Variety with Matt and Jesse

Ever been moved by a story where passion meets purpose? That's exactly what you'll get with the tale of a young Indian inventor whose love for his grandmother spurred the creation of the Alpha Monitor, aimed to reshape Alzheimer's care. We share his inspiring journey, from the inception of this wearable device that alerts caregivers of wandering or fallen dementia patients, to the recognition and support from none other than India’s Prime Minister. But that's not all; we also take you through the buzz around Oklahoma City's potential new skyline jewel. Imagine a boardwalk leading up to the state's tallest building, a place where you might conquer your fear of heights with a cocktail in hand as you gaze out over the panoramic cityscape.
This episode isn't just about grand designs and heartfelt innovations; we've got a side of the unconventional served up with a chuckle. Join us as we chat about the lively dynamics of working alongside a co-host who brings the weird and wonderful to every show. And because everyone’s family has its own brand of quirky, we dive into some family stories that are sure to raise an eyebrow—or burst you into laughter. Strap in for a ride through the compelling, the awe-inspiring, and the downright peculiar, and remember, next week promises even more curiosities from our treasure trove of tales.
