This week on Idiot of the Week, the foolishness is so potent, we’re convinced these folks woke up and chose chaos. Frangela is here to crown the dumbest of the dumb, and trust us—this week’s contenders did not come to play.
First up, four hikers in the Catskills decided to trip while tripping—on magic mushrooms. Spoiler alert: nature didn’t vibe with their vibe, and they had to be rescued. That’s not a spiritual journey, that’s a taxpayer-funded babysitting session.
Then we head to British Columbia, where a man was ticketed for driving a pink Barbie Jeep while impaired. Sir, if you’re gonna break the law, at least do it in a vehicle that can hit 10 mph.
Next, we meet a woman in Staffordshire who misunderstood “family fun day” and stripped down to her bra to twerk—for an hour. Ma’am, this was not Fun Day After Dark. There were toddlers. There were juice boxes. There were regrets.
And finally, a scuba-suited man pulled off a robbery at a Disney Springs restaurant. That’s right—he came for the cash dressed like he was auditioning for Finding Nemo: The Heist.
So, who will take home the crown of Idiot of the Week? Tune in as Frances and Angela break it all down. Because stupidity is forever, and Frangela is here to document it.

Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders
Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders takes you back to 1983, when two teenagers were found murdered, execution-style, on a quiet Texas hill. What followed was decades of rumors, false leads, and a case that law enforcement could never seem to close. Now, veteran investigative journalist M. William Phelps reopens the file — uncovering new witnesses, hidden evidence, and a shocking web of deaths that may all be connected. Over nine gripping episodes, Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders unravels a story 42 years in the making… and asks the question: who’s really been hiding the truth?
