Ever wonder if you're the only one who does that weird thing? Turns out, you're definitely not alone. This week, we're pulling back the curtain on those strange little habits we all have but rarely discuss openly.

Scott kicks things off by confessing his peculiar aversion to odd numbers – from meticulously setting the microwave timer to even numbers only, to adding that extra penny at the gas pump to avoid ending on an odd figure. Meanwhile, Keith shares his former habit of dissolving Alka-Seltzer pieces on his tongue, and Jim admits to having full conversations with his pets (though as we discover, that particular "quirk" is surprisingly universal).

The real gems come from our listeners, who shared their own delightfully strange behaviors. From the person who collects and names over 100 crab species, to those who eat cereal with a fork to avoid sogginess, to the folks who name their vehicles and talk to them like beloved pets. We explore it all – the food rituals, the social avoidance tactics, the peculiar personal preferences that make us uniquely human.

What makes this exploration so fascinating isn't just the quirks themselves, but the realization that these supposedly "weird" habits are often shared by millions. Behind each strange behavior is usually a logical (if personal) reason – whether it's seeking comfort, establishing control, or simply finding joy in life's little moments.

So whether you turn down your car radio to see better while driving, pretend your life is a reality show with background extras, or insist on eating jelly beans one color at a time – take comfort knowing you've got company. This episode is a judgment-free celebration of the beautiful strangeness we all carry. What's your weird habit?
