Overview
Barely Informed News broadcasts a chaotic mock trial where Case Blackwell, newly licensed as a federal judge, presides over Crum’s lawsuit from peen.ui for IP infringement. The proceedings devolve into a parade of absurd witnesses — including a surfing banana who admits to drinking Crum’s urine, Hate Sock in a paper bag, and an immortal wizard Munch — while Hype Train hijacks the courtroom for a freestyle rap set. The jury (chat) votes ‘genital slit,’ and Case sentences Crum to debate a gorilla then face a gorilla punch within weeks, plus a $6 million judgment to peen.ui. The broadcast concludes with a promise to continue the trial on Monday.
