Mayor Elections, Billboard Selections, and Scott Adams Interventions, it’s supposedly NEWS (2025-11-03)

Overview

Barely Informed News opens with Pepito’s sign-on and Case’s broken fish tie before diving into the NYC mayoral race where Trump endorses Cuomo over socialist frontrunner Mamdani. Jeff Ripple and Case then dissect a Rubio-led push to use fentanyl as pretext for regime change in Venezuela that inadvertently targets Colombia and Mexico. Jeb Nogget hosts a chaotic How To from his workshop with his board-bound father, covering news pitching, alcohol tolerance, and fart noises. Munch and Crum’s debate spirals into Baywatch theme songs and Crum’s tongue-piano after Munch alleges Crum’s wife is with Frederick/Jizbo. Chet commandeers the desk to dissect AI music charts, Shifty Brent, and a Japanese butt-breathing clinical trial. The news block closes with Vegas police Cybertrucks, Scott Adams begging Trump for cancer-drug scheduling, and Heidi Klum’s Medusa costume. Trip Bradstein closes the broadcast from the park where his opinion sheet merges with the town-hall queue, yielding wrestling takes, Napoleon fantasies, and JD Vance speculation before a drive-by song slam and a raid attempt on ‘Lip’.
