It takes only 7 ingredients to make this mystery meat that is eaten accross the globe. It's magic and yet we look down on it. In this episode Amber and Courtney talk about THE meat of WWII, SPAM.

Taking another cue from Rax's book, team LCB covers the musician Meat Loaf. His Wagnerian performances and complete earnestness are not only his trademark, they just might make him an irony-proof subject. The gals go deeper into the idea of ironic engagement with art, what it protects us from, and what it inhibits. Beyond that, Meat Loaf also turns out to have the soul of a poster and a soap opera-worthy origin story for his prodigious talent. Become a trash patron today! www.patreon.com/lowcultureboil

"It's a party in my mouth...and everyone's invited!" a wise man once said, probably drinking a White Claw. Yes, folks, Team LCB is taking on our bubbly, boozy beverages. They tackle the particulars of what makes this new wave of effervescent ecstasy so blandly appealing, why millenials are so fond of it, the heroic predecessors like Zima, and a surprisingly well-unionized industry.

In this final year for the Gathering of the Juggalos, Team LCB goes into their origins, their traditions, controversies, and more. Why are they so maligned by the media?

The Trash Three start off the new year by watching "Beanie Mania", the HBO Max documentary chronicling the temporary insanity where 90s collectors went all-in on Beanie Babies. Our hosts talk the Willy Wonka mind behind the craze, the nuances of a BB's "retirement", their own love of the little stuffed sacks, and, of course, capitalism.
