Cameron Dole's OddCast: Episode 2 - Diddy vs. Luigi, JLo, Falling Iguanas and more!

Released on Friday, January 17, 2025

In this episode of "Cameron Dole's OddCast" we bring you the most bizarre and entertaining news of the day. From the benefits of morning coffee to the latest antics of celebrities in lockdown, we've got it all.

First up, a new study suggests that morning coffee might be the secret to cheating death. But, as with all things in life, there's a catch. Researchers spent ten years tracking the health of their subjects, dividing them into three categories: the morning ritualists, the caffeine zombies, and the abstainers. The results show that morning coffee drinkers had a 16% lower risk of dying from any cause and a 31% lower risk of dying from heart disease. However, excessive coffee consumption can lead to negative effects, so the sweet spot is 2-3 cups in the morning.

Next, Jimmy John's is making headlines with their new Kickin' Ranch sauce, which is being offered as a free addition to any sandwich or wrap. This sauce is so divine that it'll make you forget all about your diet and succumb to the creamy, spicy abyss that is Kickin' Ranch.

We also discuss the lost art of making phone calls. Nottingham College in England is offering classes on phone etiquette and confidence, as the art of conversation has been reduced to a mere academic exercise. Students are forced to engage in torturous homework assignments, such as calling restaurants to ask what time they close, instead of simply googling it like a normal functioning member of society.

In other news, apocalypse kits are a thing, and we've got the top ten things you should have ready to go in case of emergency. From food and water to medications and car keys, we've got you covered. Because when the world ends, you'll want to be prepared.

We also touch on Diddy's ego problems, which are on full display even in lockdown. Apparently, Luigi Mangione, the guy who allegedly killed the CEO of United Healthcare, has shown up at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn and is stealing Diddy's thunder. And by stealing his thunder, I mean exposing Diddy's fragile ego for the delicate flower that it is.

Finally, J-Lo's ring collection is giving us major envy. She's keeping the $5.6 million, 8.5-carat green diamond engagement ring from Ben Affleck, which is engraved with the phrase "not going anywhere." This adds to her collection of six engagement rings, worth an estimated $17 million. Because why settle for just one ring when you can have six, right?
