Overview
Barely Informed News covers the viral Detroit Bridgerton Ball scam featuring a stripper and KitKat vendors, then pivots to Elon Musk’s father’s stepdaughter pregnancy and Kendall’s live 50 Shades of Grey watch-along. Jeb Nogget commandeers the broadcast for a How To segment sampling grotesque Venture Brothers cocktails, iron crotch kung fu, and a pickle-Skittles-Capri Sun carpsicle. Chet interrupts with the discovery of 3,600-year-old kefir cheese on Chinese mummies. Case closes the broadcast in a ‘Trent’ voice reviewing the Thunderbolts and Control trailers before raiding to Sir Lar.
