Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast
Ep 617 - Irish Good Morning
"He's in the shower and he's just like soaping himself up and he felt a little lump on the testes and he goes, fuck, dude, he's just like, that's it, I'm dead. And then as he's investigating, he's like, what the fuck? And he found out it was a tick. So he had it burrowed into his nuts."
Matt McCusker recounted his brother's harrowing experience discovering what he initially feared was testicular cancer in the shower, only to realize it was a tick embedded in his scrotum. His brother enlisted his wife to remove it, resulting in what McCusker described as a demotion "multiple leagues" in her eyes. The incident highlights growing concerns about aggressive tick populations, which some speculate may be connected to bioengineering.
