Okay, we've got FOUR contenders this week and we are struggling to pick just one, because they're all so, so special. First up: a man police find hiding under a mattress, and when they pull him out, his own mother tries to punch the officers on his behalf. Family loyalty, folks. Then we've got a guy who gets drunk and decides the move is to unload multiple weapons at a County Sheriff's Office helicopter. Just... why. Why is that ever the move. Next, we're heading to West Palm Beach for a man who allegedly faked being in a coma — a whole coma! — to cover up nearly $190,000 in embezzlement. The commitment to the bit is almost impressive. Almost. And finally, we've saved the best for last: a fugitive on the run whose own dog leads police straight to his hiding spot. No loyalty there either, apparently. Four idiots enter, one idiot leaves with the crown. Who's it gonna be? We're voting so let's get into it.

This week on Idiot of the Week, we are wading into the deep end of America’s questionable decision‑making — and baby, the water is boiling. First up, we have the man who dipped his finger into a Yellowstone hot spring like it was a free sample at Costco… then slipped, fell in, and met the world’s most scalding natural consequence. We’re not saying Darwin tapped him on the shoulder, but the universe definitely whispered, “Sir, no.” Then we slide over to the Gen Z employee who got suspended for thirty days and said, “Bet,” packed a bag, and left the country. HR called him back after ten days, all huffy, trying to remind him that suspension is punishment, not PTO. And we’d like to remind HR that they are not your mama, and they cannot ground employees. Meanwhile, influencers are out here getting bitten by sharks while chasing the perfect “I’m one with nature” thirst trap. We love ambition, but if your content plan includes “Step 3: Get lightly mauled,” maybe rethink the brand strategy. And finally, a North Carolina “volunteer” wildlife rehabilitator was charged after five raccoons were seized from her home. Five. Raccoons. In the house. Ma’am, that’s not rehabilitation — that’s roommates. Grab your snacks, your sense and your snark, and let’s get into it.

Y'all, we don't know where to even start this week because the idiocy is deep. First up, we're talking about a man in Vietnam who mistook toilet cleaner for a drink — and lost his entire stomach because of it. His entire stomach! We need a moment. Then we're taking you to the mall, where two grown women decided the food court was the perfect venue for an old-fashioned, fists-flying brawl. Security got involved, handcuffs got involved, we are OBSESSED. After that we head to Richmond, Virginia, where a doctor — a doctor! — wakes up to find a bat in her mouth. In. Her. Mouth. We scream every time we say it and we're going to make you scream too. And we're closing things out on the high seas, because nothing says vacation like a brawl so chaotic it got sixteen — SIXTEEN — guests banned from ever sailing that cruise line again. We need to know what started it and we need to know now. Grab your snacks, grab your bat-repellant and let's get into it — it's time for another Idiot of the Week.

Okay, we need y'all to sit down for this one because the nominees this week are chaotic on a spiritual level and we cannot get over it. First up: a woman gets arrested in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin for stealing an ambulance. Buck naked. Not a stitch on. And listen, if you can't steal an ambulance with your whole entire business hanging out in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin — a place that sounds like it was invented by a hymnal — then where CAN you? We need answers. Then we're heading to New Jersey, where a pizzeria decided the real crime wasn't the calzone prices, it was a family bringing in their OWN birthday cake. So now the pizzeria's out here doing press. Girl, nobody wants your tiramisu take. Sit down. Meanwhile in Phoenix, a Shake Shack employee got arrested for allegedly robbing his OWN store. We're sorry, if you're gonna rob a Shake Shack, at least steal from the OTHER Shake Shack — have some professional pride! And finally, we go to Vermont, where a grown man faked threatening texts to HIMSELF just to get out of doing tech crew for the local production of Rocky Horror Picture Show. Sir. SIR. You could've just said you had a cold. You chose felony-adjacent instead. Naked getaways, cake-shaming pizzerias, a self-robbing burger guy, and a man who feared Rocky Horror more than the police — this week's Idiot of the Week has it ALL, and honey, we are not okay.

We have a whole truckload of stupid this week! A beer lover gets no prize for the Pabst Blue Ribbon. AI helps Mount Shasta hikers get lost. Word to the wise, don’t show up to your don’t drink class drunk. Why is the Cat in the Hat on TikTok?
