    Aug 1 2026

    Ever wondered what actually happens if you jump off a cruise ship for GoPro clout? Or whether eating apple pips can really poison you?

    In this episode of We Stayed Up For This: The Midnight Spin Cycle, Sam and Jamie fall down another round of late-night internet rabbit holes. From cruise ship brigs, missing "unlucky" decks, and how ships handle 100 tons of food (and waste!), to the real science behind cyanide in fruit seeds and how humanity figured out which fruits to peel—we’re asking the big questions so you don't have to at 2 AM.

    In this episode:

    • Cruise Ship Justice: What happens when passengers.

    • Superstitions & Ghost Decks: Why Italian cruise ships avoid Deck 17.

    • The 100-Ton Food Run: How cruises feed thousands.

    • The Truth About Apple Pips: Why your stomach won't grow an apple tree.
