The Haunted, The Fired, and The Screwed | Unscripted Company

It’s been a week — again. A haunted doll might’ve just racked up a body count. A paranormal investigator turns up dead, and guess who wasn’t in the room? Annabelle. Yeah, that Annabelle. The same Raggedy Ann knockoff the Warrens paraded around like a cursed celebrity. And just when you thought that was enough weird for one episode… We dig into a fentanyl-laced murder case in Krum, Texas — a tragic, all-too-familiar headline in a country drowning in its own pharmaceutical sins. And in national news that feels more like satire, Trump’s doing an about-face on Ukraine, arming allies while threatening sanctions like it’s 2018 again. The military-industrial complex is alive, well, and grinning like it just cashed your paycheck. Oh, and say goodbye to late-night television. CBS is canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert — not replacing him, just burying the whole damn format. Ratings are tanked, the mystique is gone, and YouTube’s laughing from the throne it stole years ago. We ask the hard questions: Would you read a map of your subconscious? Do dreams actually mean something? And what the hell is in our food these days?
