Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 



Brett dives into what he calls possibly the worst story he’s come across—news that a California resident has contracted the bubonic plague after being bitten by a flea while camping near South Lake Tahoe. Joined by Isaac and Lonnie, who immediately rate the story a “10” on the horror scale, Brett uses humor and disbelief to process the unsettling news. He mocks the idea of returning to “13th-century” problems in 2025 and questions why the plague hasn’t been completely eradicated from the planet. Brett makes it clear he’s not a camper—recalling fewer than four lifetime camping trips—and urges listeners to avoid rodents, fleas, and all things wild. He also highlights the importance of early treatment and prevention, like using insect repellent, though he jokes he’s opting to stay indoors permanently. Through it all, Brett delivers a mix of public service, comedy, and mild panic that’s both entertaining and informative.
