    Mouse in the Jar, Shark in the Street, Steak in the Face

    A senator brings the wrong Hawks to a perjury fight, a dead mouse crashes a pot roast, and a shark takes a stroll through a flooded Jersey neighborhood. It's one of those weeks. This week on the show: 🏀 Sen. Eric Schmitt accuses Jack Smith of lying about an Atlanta Hawks game. It was the Iowa Hawkeyes. Plus: the Katie Britt face heard 'round the internet, and what's happened since. 💔 Kristi Noem files for divorce after more than 34 years of marriage. 🐭 A TikTok mouse sparks a Mezzetta peperoncini recall. 🦈 A shark cruises through the streets of Surf City, NJ during a nor'easter. 🥩 A customer throws a cheesesteak in a Pat's King of Steaks manager's face on camera. Philly police and a reward get involved. 🚽 An Amazon driver relieves himself in a Greenwich Village lobby. 🍷 A Kentucky bourbon legend is accused in a lawsuit of secretly filming guests, including at the Kentucky Castle. ⚖️ Caleb Flynn, the former American Idol contestant, is convicted of murdering his wife. Sentencing is Monday. 🚨 A convicted sexual predator is still missing after cutting off his GPS monitor in San Diego. 👴 Gen Z tells millennials to retire. Millennials have thoughts. 🏫 The Cornell case is reopened and Gov. Hochul brings in a special prosecutor. 🕊️ We remember Dennis Haskins, Mr. Belding from Saved by the Bell, who died at 75. We also cover the death of Ken Urker, the NYT executive slaying and the court fight behind it, and the South Carolina attack on two children.

    The Last Mask Mandate Standing

    This week's episode is a wild ride from the toilet to the tailgate. A divorce coach says men are "weaponizing pooping," a 76-year-old Florida man proudly shows a deputy his rum cup (and then admits to the cocaine), and a lesbian bar in Massachusetts gets boycotted for daring to go mask-optional one night a week. Tim Tebow hits the brakes on a Christian money seminar accused of fleecing the faithful, a credit union CEO loses her job over a ChatGPT "Lake America" joke, and a Wisconsin brewery that promised free beer when Trump dies might be serving its last round. Plus: why your belly button's smell might flag Parkinson's, a college student who says she swallowed a metal rivet in her cheesesteak, Anaheim's mayor accused of a racial slur, a Disneyland livestream that ended in an arrest, and Eagles tailgaters unionizing in a South Philly boxing gym. We also get into the heavy stuff: a Cornell lawsuit alleging a fraternity gang rape with zero arrests, looksmaxxing streamer Clavicular charged with rape and drugging, a UW-Madison hazing bust with 30 pledges in a sweltering basement, two Ole Miss students found dead with kratom at both scenes, a Georgia teen caught with a dismembered torso, and a Carnival passenger lost at sea on his anniversary trip. Then we wrap it up with What Are You Watching?, where we share what's been on our screens lately and whether it's worth your time. Like, subscribe, and drop your hottest take in the comments.
