JERRY FALWELL JR.’s “REAL LIBERTY GRADUATION": Kathleen laughs out loud reading the latest in the Jerry Falwell Jr. saga. In social media posts, Fallwell appeared to have consumed too much “black water” and invited Liberty University students to the “real Liberty graduation” at his own home.

ART FORGERY IN NYC: Kathleen describes the premise of the Netflix documentary “Made You Look,” about the most successful forgery scam ever brought off in the high-end art world. In 1995, the Knoedler Gallery, the oldest art gallery in New York purchased an unknown canvas by Mark Rothko.

Since the home was for sale, they believed that Finkel wouldn’t be in residence and they sent the invites out telling friends and fam to come to their “dream home.” Kathleen provides her own commentary in reading further that the millionaire was actually home the morning of the event and the antics that ensued when the wedding attendees began to show up.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF BAKED POTATOES: In the biggest announcement of this week’s Pubcast, Kathleen is thrilled to read to her Termites the findings of a recent study on the health benefits of baked potatoes.
