March 05, 202665: 18 Cases That Shouldn't Be Real (They Are)
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) This is our second Reb's Round-Up episode—A rapid-fire (or as rapid as Reb can make it) laundry list of cases that deserve to be included in the Rebuttal Podcast universe but are too short to devote a full episode to.
For this Round-Up, Reb gives you **18 bonus cases** to giggle, scoff, and yell about, including:
A 236-page manifesto some local librarians were asked to proofread;

A prosecutor who would've killed it at the Salem Witch Trials;

Drunk driving a Chevy Cooler-ado;

A kidnapping victim pulling an Uno reverse card;

Some really gnarly qualified immunity cases (derogatory);

And more...
Enjoy.

February 19, 2026 63: "Yes, I took acid, but that is NOT my painting..." | The Bizarre Trial of Peter Doig
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) "Everybody in the art world thinks he's telling the truth, and thinks I'm crazy, but people outside of the art world are skeptical… I know why he [disavowed the painting]. He did it because he can’t draw. Everything he does is projected, and he sketches it from the picture…This painting we have proves it."

Described as one of the "most bizarre art authentication trials in recent memory," Reb unpacks (paints?) Fletcher v. Doig (7th Cir. 2025).

January 15, 202659: The Casual Workplace Pipe Bomb

This is our first Reb's Round-Up episode—A rapid-fire (or as rapid as Reb can make it) laundry list of cases that deserve to be included in the Rebuttal Podcast universe but are too short to devote a full episode to. For this Round-Up, Reb gives you **8 bonus cases** to giggle, scoff, and yell about, including:
A scuba diving robbery of a Disney restaurant

A lawsuit against Mormon leaders for messing up the plot (literally)

An answer to one age-old question: Can you get a DUI in a Barbie Jeep?

Enjoy.

January 01, 202658: Call Your Judge 60+ Times To Cuss Her Out (And Other Legal Tips!)
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Pro-tip: If you're planning to leave 60+ threatening, profanity-laced voicemails for the Franklin County, Ohio judge presiding over your drunk-driving case, be *sure* to identify yourself by name, leave your phone number, and let her know you're *also* calling in bomb threats to a local bar, a Home Depot, a Best Western, and two nearby schools. AND don't forget to call the local sheriff's office 100 times to advise them, among other things, that one of their dispatchers is "probably fat as f***."

**No, this isn't real legal advice. This is sarcasm. But this case is very real.**

Listen to Reb unpack United States v. Yousif Mubarak (2025).

December 18, 202557: The Forgotten Battle of Ni'ihau, Hawaii
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) On December 7, 1941, pilots from the Imperial Japanese Navy bombed Pearl Harbor in a surprise attack on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. After strafing Pearl Harbor in the second wave of the attack, Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service pilot Shigenori Nishikaichi was in dire straits—his plane was too damaged to make it back to his aircraft carrier.
If necessary, all Imperial Japanese pilots were instructed to crash land on Ni'ihau, a small Hawaiian island they were certain was "uninhabited."
They were wrong.

This is the story of the Battle of Ni'ihau—One pilot, one remote island, 136 Ni'ihauans, and a declaration of war only the enemy pilot knew about.

December 12, 202556: The First Crime Ever Committed In Space Was...A Lie?
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) Before 2019, no crimes had been committed in space (that we know of). After poring over records, the New York Times could only come up with three things: (1) damage to a Russian satellite that was allegedly China’s fault; (2) a lawsuit seeking to recover a deposit somebody put down for a space-tourism trip; and (3) a U.S.-government sting operation aimed at recovering a moon rock. Only one of those happened in space, though, and none of them are crimes.
That is, until an ex-wife of a NASA astronaut decided to play petty.

Reb launches us into two cases: (1) a bad break up and (2) a horrific moon-rock-related detention by federal agents of a Granny in a diner parking lot.
This is Summer Heather Worden v. Anne McClain (2019) (2025) and Joann Davis v. United States (2017).
