Far From Fact

It’s back to three topic weeks! The lads are back at it again with some top-drawer content from across the world. There’s the story about the creative bakery that printed pictures of thieves on their cookies, and the two dimwits who tried to sell Uranium in the open market. But first the story of a woman who found out that her biological parents had actually ‘kidnapped’ her. Take the word kidnapped with a pinch of salt. Lest we get blamed for clickbait.

The Bill Gates and Melinda Gates divorce is the big story of the week. Catch the lads as they trade their usual problem solving hats for a bunch of wagging tongues. It’s that kind of a story. Speculations fly wild and theories run amok, as these two have a cackle at the expense of the Gates. But not before dragging the whole family with it. Because as they say, couples don’t get divorced, families do.

A Syrian sailor is abandoned on a ship by the vessel owners off the coast of Egypt. The sailor gets cornered due to an Egyptian ruling that makes him answerable. Stuck for four years with no power, sanitation or social contact, Mohammed Ayesha lived to tell the tale. Catch the lads as they take on this story of abuse and manage to squeeze just the right amount of cheer out of it. Served fresh with a garnish of ignorance.

Three senior citizens get anti-rabies shots instead of COVID-19 vaccines in Uttar Pradesh. Or at least they get a slip that says they got an anti-rabies vaccine. BEST conductors receive huge part of their remuneration in coins because the company’s contract with banking service provider comes to an end. And the heartwarming story of a husband who sells his wife’s sandwiches just so he can buy fast food with the money. Also, the lads want to wish you Ramadan Kareem.

Shock and taboo sit front and centre this week. From the husband who kicks out his wife so he can be with the nanny, to the story of the South African Pastor who farts on people in an attempt to “heal” them. But first, the story of a thief in Uttar Pradesh, who found way more money than he had imagined. And the shock gave him a heart attack. Gas, heart attack and adultery, just another day of top-drawer editorial.

That title is no clickbait, it is plain fact. And we’re happy if that caught your eye, ‘cos this is what Greta Thunberg seems to be warning us about as well. But first, the story of a woman who passes out, every time she sees a cute guy. Love at first sight? Or lights out at first sight? And the bizarre phenomenon in Taiwan, where people are adding Salmon to their name, just for some free sushi. Actually free sushi for them and 5 of their friends. Fair enough, no?

The lads find their nemesis in a story that truly stumps them. Filled with landmines, this is a story about two child-influencers posing romantically on Instagram. Watch them try to navigate this ethical nightmare while trying to keep it light. But first the hilarious piece about a woman who caught her cheating boyfriend thanks to a Fitbit. And let’s not forget the cute little Indian railways campaign titled ‘Plastic lao mask pao.’ Equal parts naive, equal parts enthusiastic.
