From cursed psychics to centipede bites in very wrong places, this episode proves humanity is still trying its best to out-weird itself!
This week on News with Bill, I dive into some of the strangest, funniest, and most disturbing stories from around the world. A Chinese serial killer sells “ostrich meat” that turns out to be something far more horrifying, while a drunk man in Turkey joins a search party—looking for himself. In California, two fake plastic surgeons are charged with murder after a botched butt implant, and in Taiwan, a man gets an insurance payout after a centipede bites his most sensitive parts. Meanwhile, a Tennessee woman crashes a car, strips naked, and eats grass before police arrest her. In Boston, students take a field trip on a party bus complete with a stripper pole, and a man in Florida uses a Walmart parking lot to stage his fiancée’s body. Add in a psychic scam lawsuit, a guy who swallowed metal nails, a Florida woman’s hot grits attack, and another who literally weaponized the letter “G,” and you’ve got one of the wildest collections of bizarre news yet.
