  • February 13th, 2026 - You Cannot Outrun Math But They Tried Anyway
    Feb 13 2026

    The broadcast opens with Viktor already spiritually exhausted, wedged between caffeine deficiency and modern customer-service betrayal, while Lieutenant Crain materializes like a lawful paladin who had to be dragged out of bed by destiny itself. Within seconds, we’re arguing about dive bar discrimination, fashion crimes, and the constitutional right to vibe incorrectly. A uniformed officer walks into a bar for a check and is told to leave, which is the purest American poetry ever written. No one is safe. Not hospitality. Not dignity. Not Viktor’s Airbnb rating, which has been assassinated by a hallway he wasn’t even standing in. Somewhere in Salt Lake City, a condo corridor has declared war on this man.

    Crazy J calls in like a sleep-deprived oracle whose prophecies are made entirely of side comments and open tabs. He contributes nothing and everything. He is wind chimes made of bail money.

    Then the ritual begins: the summoning of callers.

    Ravonda, patron saint of Bad Decisions O’Clock, announces she is actively committing crimes in real time and would like the state police to notice her. She might have open containers, she might not, she might be hands-free, she might be spiritually hands-free, we may never know. Lieutenant Crain calmly explains the law while Viktor provides color commentary like a man watching raccoons figure out fireworks. Ravonda exits the call the way legends do: by promising future paperwork.

    Immediately, normal humans attempt to restore order by asking real questions, but the show has tasted chaos and demands more.

    A guy asks how to treat a Y intersection with no signage, and suddenly we’re in Driver’s Ed taught by thunder. Yield to the left because that’s the kill side. CASUAL. JUST A LITTLE MORTALITY WITH YOUR COFFEE.

    Another caller wants to know how long he can run on a bill of sale in the back window. Seven days in-state, twenty-eight out-of-state. The Pinto is coughing. The horsepower is a rumor. Windows are optional. The American Dream is flapping in the wind like unsecured paperwork.

    Then we descend into the cathedral of Radar Discourse.

    “Am I legally allowed to see the radar?”

    No ❤️.

    What follows is a masterclass in how speed is detected, verified, emotionally processed, and spiritually accepted while every driver in the audience remembers the sacred Nose Dive of Shame when you spot a trooper and try to compress physics with your brake pedal. Viktor begins to sweat because math appears. Lieutenant Crain remains patient, explaining visual estimation, tone acquisition, target lock, fastest vs. strongest return, and discretion, which is the most powerful magic spell in law enforcement.

    A motorcyclist attempts to lawyer the universe into allowing Fun Speeds. The answer is maybe, but don’t be dumb, which is both legal advice and life advice.

    Bryce calls about a missing speed limit sign like he’s discovered a tear in the fabric of municipal authority. The pole is there. The number is gone. Somewhere a college kid is decorating a dorm room with felony chic.

    Meanwhile, Valentine’s Day hovers over the studio like a threat assessment. “She said I don’t need anything.”

    WRONG.

    INCORRECT.

    MEDICAL EMERGENCY.

    Radar detectors are legal unless you’re commercial, which leads to the revelation that the same guy used to sell both the radar and the detector, which is capitalism achieving enlightenment.

    Then we get defenestration. A man in Georgia is thrown through a Waffle House window and asks if gravity carries charges. Yes. Everyone gets charges. The window also gets charges. Insurance gets charges. Reality gets charges.

    Jaywalking appears and becomes philosophical. Someone heard in Pocatello it might be legal. The internet says absolutely not. Students near Idaho State University are playing live-action Frogger next to The Advocates like tuition reimbursement might fall from the sky if a bumper kisses destiny.

    Crazy J returns because time is a circle and so is he.

    We learn you can load a vehicle with humans as long as seatbelts are buckled and the driver can still, you know, operate existence. Clown car jurisprudence. Finally. The founding fathers weep with pride.

    By the end, Ravonda is at the bar, Carl is in the back seat because license reasons, Jay is in the street, and Viktor is begging for caffeine while insisting this was educational.

    And somehow?

    It was.

  • February 6th, 2026 - Look Left and Go (Unless You’re Suing Us)
    Feb 6 2026

    This episode of Traffic School Powered by the Advocates opens like a fever dream broadcast directly from a squad car parked halfway between a radio studio and a Home Depot parking lot. Lieutenant Crain materializes on air like a haunted Big Head Mode apparition from Family Feud, immediately establishing dominance as both law enforcement and accidental recurring jump scare.

    From there, the show spirals immediately into intergenerational chaos: feral grandkids, TikTok animals attempting car theft, and the sobering realization that winter never came but everyone still panic-bought snow equipment anyway. Snowblowers are purchased out of spite. Snow machines sit unused, staring at their owners like disappointed mechanical gods. Crazy J is quietly replaced by capitalism.

    The weather discourse mutates into a full-on omen reading: motorcycles, hoverboards, electric scooters—everything crawling out of storage like it’s spring, which of course means impending disaster. The cops politely beg the audience not to die. The hosts politely ignore this and instead decide the real emergency is training Jeff to answer the phones, a task that proves more dangerous than any traffic violation. Calls come in. Calls drop. Calls are hung up on intentionally. Jeff learns through exposure therapy.

    Then the callers arrive in force, and the episode fully derails. A school bus driver confirms what we all feared: people are feral around stop arms, and the police are about to unleash citation hell like it’s a limited-time DLC event. Wide-load trucks spark mirror-swapping trauma. A roaming mobile bar is reported to be both “in the car” and “in the bar” simultaneously, triggering an all-points bulletin that exists exclusively as a bit. Crazy Carl calls in to announce that he can build snowblowers in his sleep and invites everyone—including a mystery woman named Ravonda—to drink at a brewery across from a museum of clean, which somehow makes sense in context.

    The episode reaches peak enlightenment during a roundabout discourse so powerful it causes a caller to jokingly claim they crashed live on air after following the show’s advice too literally. Legal disclaimers evaporate. Responsibility is deflected onto corporate insurance. AI-powered 911 systems are revealed. Parked cars are struck. Notes are left on windshields like ancient apology scrolls. Courtesy driving is debated as both a moral philosophy and a potential misdemeanor. By the end, the hosts are exhausted, Jeff has survived training, the cops are still here, and the audience has learned absolutely everything and nothing about traffic law all at once. Civilization barely holds.

  • January 30th, 2026 - Crain Missed $20,000 By Nine Points And A Goat Is Loose
    Jan 30 2026

    This episode of Traffic School detonates immediately like a raw-meat-fueled fever dream, kicking off with Lieutenant Crain—local law enforcement icon, accidental celebrity, and freshly minted Family Feud warrior—being paraded like a conquering hero whose two seconds of fame have allegedly expired but absolutely have not. What follows is a spiraling, caffeinated, mic-malfunctioning descent into behind-the-scenes Family Feud chaos: Steve Harvey roasting the Crain family into oblivion, watermelon answers that defy God and logic, hand soap humiliation, toilet paper betrayal, and the brutal realization that the human brain turns into microwave static the second a game-show clock starts ticking. Between tales of edited-out laughter, Steve Harvey physically recoiling from the Crain family, and the emotional devastation of missing $20,000 by NINE STUPID POINTS, the show veers hard into classic Traffic School anarchy—callers fighting over speed limits like it’s the Constitution, drunk fictional callers confessing crimes on-air, goats terrorizing Idaho roadways, cops wrestling livestock into patrol cars, and officers sharing war stories about almost pooping themselves in the line of duty. The phones light up with questions about passing in residential zones, evading tickets by driving uglier cars, the science of being the “least pull-overable” vehicle in a speeding pack, and whether throwing water, spit, or vibes at someone constitutes battery. Somewhere in the middle, the show becomes a philosophical debate about criminal stupidity, counterfeit drug empires, lottery winners turning into Walter White at age 65, and the eternal truth that if criminals were smart, cops would have nothing to talk about. By the end, everyone is exhausted, slightly haunted, deeply entertained, and spiritually altered—because this wasn’t just an episode of Traffic School, it was a live broadcast of chaos theory wearing a badge and screaming about goats.
