Kathleen opens the show drinking a Bud Light NEXT with an Old Bay Bloody Mary. “GOOD BAD FOOD”: In her quest for new and delicious not-so-nutritious junk food AND in continuing her search for the best Ranch, Kathleen samples Wise salt & vinegar potato chips which she LOVES because they have a ton of flavor and are crunchier than Lays. She then tastes Oreo’s 110-year anniversary Confetti Cake cookies and Kraft Classic Catalina Dressing, both of which she thinks are way too sweet, and finishes with Cains Mayonnaise, which is the official mayo of New England. QUEEN’S COURT: Kathleen is excited to report that Queen Dolly is campaigning Taco Bell to bring back their Mexican Pizza. Queen Stevie will be performing at the brand-new Sound On Sound music festival in Connecticut, and Queen Tanya is celebrating the 50th anniversary of her hit “Delta Dawn”April 10th at the Ryman. UPDATES: Kathleen gives updates on Meta’s $90M settlement over Facebook’s tracking of users online activity, Virgin Galactic begins to take reservations for SpaceFlights, a new Silversea’s cruise ship will sail around South American in 71 days. “HOLY SHIT THEY FOUND IT”: Kathleen is amazed to read about the discovery of the location where Jesus walked on water, and one of the largest-known Norse longhouses near a Viking ship burial. NIKKI HALEY vs “THE CHILDREN”: Kathleen laughs out loud reading a recent article where former UN ambassador Nikki Haley slams US-born Olympic skier Eileen Gu, who opted to ski for China in the 2022 Winter Olympics instead of the US. Haley denounced Gu for her flag alliance, stating that Gu was “standing for freedom, or you're standing for human rights abuses. There is no in-between.” Eileen, who is an 18-year-old Zoomer, (or what Kathleen refers to as “the children”) dismissed Haley’s comments, stating that she’s “just trying to have fun” which THOROUGHLY amused Kathleen ☺ WOMAN USED PPP LOAN TO HIRE HITMAN: Kathleen laughs as she reads an arrest article about a woman in Florida who used her COVID-19 Pandemic relief load to pay for a hitman to gun down a Miami TSA agent who was set to testify against her in an upcoming trial. KRAFT’S SECRET CHEESE CAVE: Kathleen is thrilled to read that Kraft foods has been leasing a 400K square-foot limestone cheese cave under Springfield, MO since 2008 called Springfield Underground. The cave houses 680-pound, Velveeta-bright barrels of Oscar Meyer meats, Philadelphia cream cheese, Velveeta pasteurized processed cheeses, Jell-O, and Lunchables. MELANIA BUYS HER OWN NFT: Kathleen is amused reading an article detailing that the source of funds for the winning bid in Melania Trump’s first NFT auction appears to be the creators of the project themselves. A series of blockchain transactions show that the cryptocurrency used to purchase Trump’s nonfungible token came from a wallet that belongs to the entity that originally listed the project for sale. FLIGHT ATTENDANT COFFEE POT NINJA: In continuing with Kathleen’s ongoing coverage of post-pandemic inflight incidences, she reads a recent report of an American Airlines’ flight attendant who used a coffee pot to hit and overcome an unruly passenger who was attempting to open the plane’s exit door while flying over Kansas City.
