Frangela: Idiot of the Week

This week on  Idiot of the Week , we have a truly competitive lineup in the battle for peak stupidity. First, meet the Easter Bunny-slash-drug dealer who thought the best way to spread seasonal joy was by hiding marijuana-stuffed eggs all over the city. Egg hunts just got a whole lot more interesting—and slightly illegal. Then, there’s the student who decided that one emergency airlift off Mt. Fuj...

This week on Idiot of the Week , the competition for the crown of stupidity is fiercer than ever. First up, a restaurant that thought it could pass off street pigeon as duck. Spoiler alert: diners were not amused, and neither were the health inspectors. Next, we head to the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, where a Spirit Airlines passenger decided the best way to win an argument wa...

This week on  Idiot of the Week , Frangela tackles the kind of idiocy that truly defies comprehension. First, meet Nevada Karl, who thought seven "emotional support" tigers prowling around his house was a totally fine idea—until the authorities didn’t agree.  Then, we head to New Jersey, where one woman decided that hiring a hitman via Tinder was the perfect plan. Because nothing says “dis...

This week on Idiot of the Week , we bring you a lineup of contenders so astoundingly foolish, you'd think they were competing for a lifetime supply of bad decisions. First, meet Valerie—the miniature dachshund thriving on the rugged terrain of Australia’s Kangaroo Island. While humans panic and search for her, she’s out here living her best life. Maybe the real idiots are the people who think...

This week on Idiot of the Week, we bring you a lineup of contenders so jaw-droppingly ridiculous, you’ll question how humanity has made it this far. First, we investigate how a Texas middle school managed to turn a classroom into a tattoo parlor—and not the cool kind. With one shared needle among students, it’s a truly horrifying tale of poor decisions and even worse health education. Next, a Texa...

This week on  Idiot of the Week , the competition for the coveted crown of sheer, unparalleled foolishness is fiercer than ever—and believe me, the bar is subterranean. First up, we have a Memphis man who’s redefined “man’s best friend” by claiming he was shot  by his dog. Yes, as if Fido didn’t already have enough on his plate, he’s now allegedly packing heat. Next in line, McLaurine Pinover, a H...

This week on Idiot of the Week , the race for the title of world’s dumbest is so tight, it’s practically a photo finish—except the contestants are sprinting backward into a wall. First up, we have a drunk tourist who managed to get himself banned from Rome’s iconic Trevi Fountain. Nothing says "holiday adventure" like getting a lifetime ban! Next, a surgeon who thought, “You know what woul...

This week on  Idiot of the Week , we dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of human absurdity. First up, Starbucks faces a $50 million lawsuit after a scalding tea incident—was it negligence or just a piping-hot cup of stupidity? Then, a man attempts to smuggle a live turtle through TSA... in his pants. Yes, you heard that right. Meanwhile, Sam Jones, an American influencer, manages to enrage an...

Oh honey, buckle up and grab your tea, because this week’s episode of  Idiot of the Week  is serving up a buffet of wrong! Will the crown go to the Southwest Airlines diva who turned turbulence into a tantrum? Or perhaps the three-wheeled daredevil from West Babylon, redefining reckless with a side of audacity? Let’s not forget the Louisiana legend who thought a “Nigerian Prince” scam was a retire...

Hold on to your wigs, darling, because this week on  Idiot of the Week , we're serving up a smorgasbord of stupidity that's  beyond  belief. First up, we’ve got a family in Australia who found themselves playing house to 102 venomous snakes. But the real question is— who’s the bigger threat ? The slithering reptiles or the humans who thought it was okay to live with them? Then, let’s glide...

This week on  Idiot of the Week , the competition for the coveted title of "Stupidest of the Week" is  fierce !

This week on Idiot of the Week, we’ve got an eclectic mix of mind-boggling blunders, and the competition for the coveted "Idiot of the Week" title is fierce.

Maybe it’ll be the woman who clearly missed the Frangela Rules about sex toys and stayi...

In this week's episode, we’ve got a fresh batch of nominees vying for the internationally coveted Idiot of the Week title — and trust us, it's a tight race. Was it the parishioner who thought whisky and tangerines were an appropriate offering in the Lord's house? Or maybe the Scandinavian airline that faced a mouse invasion in the middle of a flight? Then there’s the 29-year-old still...

It’s that time again! The Idiot of the Week race is on, and this week’s contenders are raising the bar for absurdity.
