Then, they get into the exciting (and surprising) dating news involving Bravo’s Phaedra Parks and CT of 'The Challenge' before diving into multiple real Gal Gadot headlines that sound very much fake. They try to evaluate the Biebers’ WYouth interview, give updates on more Stella Lefty plagiarism allegations, and then get excited about Nathan Fielder’s secret Elizabeth Holmes documentary. They cap it off with listener responses to this week's introspective question: What is something that can happen only where you live?
