211: The Church That Went to Eleven

Would you say "yes" after a fake armed robbery? One Colombian man staged a terrifying mock carjacking complete with motorcycles, masked accomplices, and a gun—only to drop to one knee and propose marriage. Then, Jethro and Lindsay dive into the bizarre true story of a South Carolina pastor who landed in jail after church services became so loud that neighbors, police, and city officials finally had enough.

From questionable proposal strategies to a legal battle over excessive worship, this episode explores two real stories that prove truth is often stranger than fiction. Plus: Dirty Cabbage, porta-potty investigations, and the kind of life choices that could only happen in The Shallow End.

Fake robbery proposal, church noise complaints, unusual crimes, strange news, weird true stories, bizarre weddings, South Carolina history, and the wonderfully absurd corners of human behavior—all waiting for you in this episode of The Shallow End with Schnebly & Toth.
