It’s a WILD week of weird news, and it shows here at Bizzar-o HQ! Dave, Shaun, and Phil each enter the news week with a particularly wooly doozy: first up, Angry Dave has news of a young car rental employee who sought to lift office morale by SPIKING the coffee with LSD! Not to be outdone, Shaun presents the latest and (not-so) greatest plot by the flat-Earth community: a cruise to the fabled “ice wall” ringing our “wet Frisbee” of a squashed planet! And the good doctor rounds things out with news of the next big thing in sports: championship Face-Slapping, straight out of Mother Russia! Plus, we’ve got a new iteration of everyone’s favorite mind game: Phil’s brought Real or BS: Olympic Sports Edition! Play along, why doncha?

BUT FIRST!

In a very special THREE-FOR edition of Shaun’s Cabinet of the Macabre, Mr. Hayes has a trio of historically significant deadly conflagrations to cover. Who’d have pegged March for such a fiery month of death? Thrill to the strange ends from New York to England to Japan and experience the kind of Schadenfreude only NOT dying painfully can bring!

AND!

In Three for the Road, there is way more poo in those office coffee mugs than you think, scientists are dosing gators with Special K, Germany has a new drunk superhero, and more!

Hey! Come on in, we just whipped up a fresh batch of…THE WHIPAROUND!
