Welcome back to News with Bill, your go-to podcast for the weirdest and most unbelievable true stories from around the world. In this episode, “Rhino Head on Street Corner,” I dig into some truly jaw-dropping and bizarre news that you probably haven’t heard—and maybe wish you hadn’t.
We kick things off with a strange update from United Airlines, where flight attendants are now being told not to use duct tape to restrain unruly passengers. Yes, duct tape. Apparently, this stuff’s been doing more flying than the passengers. But the airline insists staff should stick to "designated items" instead. I’m still wondering what those are... zip ties? Feather boas?
From there, we travel to Pennsylvania, where a murder trial took an unexpected turn when the defendant claimed self-defense—while also claiming he defecated himself during the altercation. That’s right. The defense tried to make poop part of the alibi. It’s courtroom drama meets toilet humor.
Then we’ve got a Florida couple who turned dinner into disaster, arrested for a mutual spaghetti attack. Things got messy—literally. And it only escalates: a Tennessee man cuts off a very personal body part mid-police chase because his car radio told him to save the world. That’s commitment… or insanity.
There’s more: a nurse sends feces and blood through the mail, a woman pulls a gun over a Chipotle order, and a hammer-wielding road rager livestreams her own felony. We’ve also got toll booth flashers, pipe bombs from a “moral” crusader, and yes—an actual taxidermy rhino head just left on a Pennsylvania sidewalk like last week’s garbage.
And then there’s a horrifyingly racist neighbor caught on video spewing vile threats—while half-naked.
