Rebuttal

Show Notes

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) This is our fourth **Reb's Round-Up** episode—A rapid-fire (or as rapid as Reb can make it) list of cases that deserve to be included in the Rebuttal Podcast universe but are too short to devote a full episode to.

For this Round-Up, Reb gives you *14 bonus cases* for you to tell unsuspecting friends and strangers all about, including:

Drones delivering packages to prison;

An ex-lawyer in a purple G-string hallucinating a Giant Panda;

A bank robbery research project;

A $517,000 rock, paper, scissors game;

A trip to the morgue and back to the ER;

A (former) judge banned from a mall for being a creep;

An update on the infamous bee assault case;

And more...

Enjoy!
