The $250K Kit Kat Shipping Heist
- Dan and Brandon recount the bizarre $250,000 theft of rare Japanese Kit Kats involving fake truckers and misrouted shipments.
- One load vanished twice and another remains impounded because nobody can prove ownership, creating a chaotic, comedic heist tale.
Logistics Failure Multiplied The Damage
- The heist exposed weak logistics controls like hiring via Craigslist and poor verification of drivers and credentials.
- Small operational oversights enabled large-scale loss and opaque accountability across multiple vendors.
Tristan: The Confessing Trucker

- The hosts spin playful theories about Tristan's motives, from redemption to a Make-A-Wish-style stunt.
