    What The Fuck Is Wrong With America?: Part III - Snake Oil Salesmen

    01/05/2026 | 1h 38 mins.
    Step right up and witness the magnificent medicinal miracle of Hocus Pocus Lack Of Focus' revitalising podcast! Put some ardor in your larder with our energizing, moisturizing... tantalizing, romanticizing, surprising, "her-prising," revitalizing shite talk! That's right, this week Oisin takes Dani and Justy on an investigation of that grand American tradition: lying to people. Stretching from "The Rattlesnake King" Clark Stanley to "The Liver King" Brian Johnson, selling both literal and figurative snake oil to the public is one of the foundations of the USA, and it doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon. Along the way, expect Elon Musk (naturally), Korean skincare, Sepp Blatter, nicotine pouches, and genuinely relevant Simpsons quotes.
    Content warning: from 32:44 to 37:35, we discuss details about the online rape academy which was in the news recently as well as the Giséle Pelicot case, in case anyone wants to skip.

    A Compelling Natural Podcast: The Dyatlov Pass Incident

    24/04/2026 | 2h 1 mins.
    Pack a bag, wrap up tight, and follow close behind Dani, Justy, and Oisin as they investigate the Dyatlov Pass Incident. Ticking off a big topic on Dani’s bucket list, we defrost the mystery of what happened to the nine experienced hikers who died in mysterious circumstances in the Ural Mountains in 1959. Was it hypothermia? Military tests? Avalanche? Abominable snowmen? Abominable snowmen from space? Badgers? A time-travelling Dani looking for content? You’ll have to listen and find out. Expect a lot of injury descriptions (naturally, it’s a Dani episode) and mispronunciations of Russian names.

    Simulation Theory: Are We All Just Trapped In God's Save Game?

    17/04/2026 | 1h 31 mins.
    Throw on your leather trenchcoats and tiny sunglasses, it's an episode for the philosophy and quantum physics sickos out there as we hack into the mainframe anad try to figure out simulation theory. What around us is real? How is the Fibonacci sequence so prevalent in nature? Why do we dream? And in Dani's case, what is 1 + 2?
    In between the binary code we touch on The Sims, Liverpool-based time slips, Cool Runnings, Schrödinger's cat and Leon Kennedy.

    What The Fuck Is Wrong With America?: Part II - McCarthyism

    10/04/2026 | 1h 31 mins.
    Crack open your history books, Oisin is taking us on a tour through the evils for America once again. This week, we're testifying in front of the very chill, very normal Joseph McCarthy and his Red Scare, which swept through the US in the 1950s and essentially rewired the American political brain, with its effects still being felt today. Along the way, we get into Roy Cohn and learning American culture through The Simpsons, Billie Holiday, The Rosenbergs, The Kennedys, some very questionable accents, and Pete Hegseth's even more questionable tattoos

    The World's Politest Cannibal

    03/04/2026 | 1h 36 mins.
    Short episode alert! Probably best you don't cue this one up around mealtimes, because this week we're opening the casefile of one Armin Meiwes, the infamous German cannibal and his voluntary victim Bernd Brandes. Trigger warning, which shoud go without saying. Along the way, there's more of Oisin's impressions, Dick Tracy, the open awfulness of the early internet, Star Trek novels, but shockingly not a single Simpsons "Armin Tamzarian" reference. For shame.
