Maui is still in the news, because they are starved for tourist dollars. Why? Because right after the Lahaina fire, they said, “Stay away!” Well, people did, and now businesses are hurting, and people are losing their jobs. Good job, people who knee-jerk in reaction to something instead of thinking things through. Also: Oprah and The Rock promoted a charity, and it turns out the organization has some awfully high overhead. Up next, diamonds: they're still a thing for some reason. We've known forever that they're a scam, an industry of plenty controlled by one company that artificially inflates the price, so why do people keep falling for the ruse? Well, maybe the tide is turning, because prices are dropping. (And that's a good thing.) Finishing up: an idiot wants to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a hamster wheel, but for some reason the Coast Guard keeps arresting him, and Kim Kardashian pays tribute to the late, great singer of Smash Mouth, Steve Harwell. Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don't have to. #podcast #news #currentevents #humor #funny Find Jake @jakevevera Find nathan: https://nathantimmel.com/

Tulsa Police Sgt. Brandon Watkins says the person who died Wednesday was a 52-year-old man. He says the man pulled a gun, jumped behind the photo counter to take photos from a clerk and then climbed back over the counter. Watkins says that while other employees tried to call police, a 28-year-old Walgreens employee shot and killed the man. Factors slowing U.S. population growth are a record low birthrate that continues to fall and a death rate that is rising slightly. For the year that ended July 1, the birthrate fell to 59.8 births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44, according to preliminary data from the National Center for Health Statistics. That’s 14% below the most recent peak, in 2007. Preliminary data show the death rate for the year that ended July 1 rising to 867.6 per 100,000, up 3% from the same period two years earlier. The judge rejected the contention that the grand jury proceeding was flawed and then turned his attention to whether police and prosecutors exhibited bias and pervasive bad deeds to warrant a dismissal. Burke found that "there is no basis for the defendant's claim of prosecutorial or law enforcement misconduct in the proceedings." Not only will he reject the dismissal bid, but he is turning down Brafman's call for an evidentiary hearing to examine the issue. "The defendant may explore any issues of witness credibility at a trial should such witnesses testify," added the judge. The next hearing is March 7. The next phase of pretrial proceedings could have prosecutors and the defense warring over the potential for trial testimony from other women who have publicly accused Weinstein of misconduct.

On this week's LadyWatch agenda: Ryan and Jason praise God herself for the Divine Gift that is FX's "Feud" and for the overwhelming bounty of blessings that are Jessica Lange as Joan Crawford, Susan Sarandon as Bette Davis, (lady-in-waiting) C-Z-J as (Lady-in-LIVING) O-de-H, Judy Davis as Hedda Hopper, Kathy Bates as Joan Blondell, and Jackie Hoffman as fucking ANYTHING!! PLUS: We predicted last week that agent-of-chaos Faye Dunaway would cause a scene while presenting at the Academy Awards and boy oh boy, she did NOT disappoint! In fact, Shirley MacLaine is STILL aghast at the mistake (and still calling Annette when she can't get ahold of Warren), Salma Hayek saw it all go down FIRST, and Marissa Tomei gets VINDICATED. Also: Oprah both does AND doesn't consider running for President, Lisa Marie Presley's life is kind of falling apart but it looks like Priscilla has it COVERED, a British woman is killed ON Doris Day, and much MUCH more!

Also Oprah's next weighty role, Chaka Khan to be judged on national TV, Lynda Carter lunchboxes, dueling Ruth Madoffs, and much, much more.
