We're spicing things up in the studio this week and putting our guest on the spot. Today Jacob will read out five goofy headlines and our guest will have to guess whether they are real or fake news. Today's guest Big Norm will have a few minutes to ask questions about each story to try and press Jacob before making his guess. Todays real (or fake news) headlines are: Man Shoots His Male Doctor After He Made Him Cum During A Prostate Exam (0:28) Family told to change son's 'Skywalker' name or seek Disney's permission (7:10) Vladimir Putin urges citizens to 'have sex during work breaks' to address Russia's dire birthrate (15:08) Icelandic Mayor Apologizes After Naming All Town’s Streets After Ex-Girlfriends (24:33) California firefighter arrested for allegedly starting 5 wildfires (32:51)
