I am going to take a moment and give a brief introduction. Really, if you are interested in weird, odd, and bizarre news stories with a generous helping of miscellaneous tidbits, News with Bill is the show for you! There is a good chance that I will throw some randomness in here and there as well.  &amp;nbsp;  Here what you can expect to episode:   Obviously, I had to kick off the new show with a story about poop. There is a circus in Germany that is selling jars of the brown gold to unsuspecting people\u2026 well, I guess they are suspecting because these people are ordering the stuff on purpose.   Of course then we have a couple of real gems \u2013 a guy that claimed he was using the two dozen pipe bombs he was caught with to remove tree stumps, and the Nazi that shot a woman several times in the back that stole a flag in his front yard. Odd, I know. Since when do Nazis overreact about things?   There are truly some odd magazines out there that you can actually subscribe to, and they cover a wide range of subjects \u2013 animals, corpses, industrial equipment, end even porta potties!   I found details about a railroad selling rocks make money, and read about a couple of guys that got into a violent argument over a video game.   And what is the best way to close out the episode? A kid shoving a Lego up his nose, only to have it come out a couple of years later. &amp;nbsp; PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS EPISODE!
