  • - Hi, I still don't know what I'm about to say

  • because I'm big stupid idiot.

  • Go to Dropout.tv

  • to start your free trial today.

  • For every episode of breaking news that's here,

  • there's another episode only available on Dropout TV.

  • Until next time I'm Grant O'Brian,

  • which is Irish for Grant Of Brian.

  • (laughing)

  • - [Producer] From West Hollywood California,

  • the only news team that doesn't know

  • what's on the teleprompter before they read it.

  • Anyone who laughs or breaks loses points.

  • This is, Breaking News.

  • - Turns out it wasn't a dog after all

  • - Oh really?

  • - I know I don't know what it is.

  • - Bet it got locked in the bathroom

  • - Good evening and Welcome to Breaking News.

  • The show where we don't know what we're about to say

  • and we're not allowed to smile or laugh.

  • I'm Gillian Goldensocks.

  • - And I'm Bethany Trash.

  • (laughs)

  • A new climbing gym has opened here in town,

  • and the city's soft weak hipsters are cheering.

  • - [Gillian] Climbing gyms are all the rage in

  • neighborhoods that have a Sweetgreen.

  • They answer the question,

  • "What if crossfit was somehow more unsafe and more douchey?"

  • - Members at Downtown Boulders can climb walls

  • up to 25 feet tall, instead of going outside ever.

  • Why would anyone climb free, real, rocks

  • when they could climb wooden ones

  • for $175 a month.

  • - [Gillian] Make no mistake, climbing is bad exercise.

  • It works like three muscles and it moves really slowly.

  • That guy from that movie Free Solo?

  • Alex Honnold? I bet most people could kick his a**.

  • - Downtown Boulders is a part of the mayor's new

  • River walk Initiative, which brings

  • new businesses to the ugly river of our lame city.

  • (giggles)

  • You see the same thing in other second rate towns

  • like Cincinnati, Austin and San Diego.

  • - The Riverwalk will have a Bucca Di Beppo

  • to stink up the whole place with garlic,

  • and a dueling piano bar called the

  • The Big Bang for anyone who loves Billy Joel music,

  • but wishes he told more d*** jokes.

  • - [Bethany] There will also be Giggles,

  • an improve comedy theater.

  • For anyone who hasn't seen live improve, it's a must.

  • It's a whole

  • (laughs)

  • It's a whole show of nervous 30 year olds

  • trying desperately to out joke each other.

  • And everyone is so, so doughy.

  • - You know I used to do comedy.

  • - Oh yeah? Tell me a joke.

  • - Well have you ever seen the one about

  • a banana that goes outside into a

  • green, green, green, field?

  • - Have I seen that joke?

  • - It's a video.

  • - [Bethany] Oh.

  • - Have you seen it?

  • - No.

  • - It's really funny.

  • - Yeah, sounds funny.

  • (laughs)

  • - We now go to Mavis Martin, who met with

  • the winner of the Finn Wolfhard

  • Elementary School Science Fair.

  • - Thanks Bethany, I had quite a morning talking

  • to these little geniuses.

  • - I'll bet Mavis, who won?

  • - It was a little boy named Micheal Doonsbury.

  • He designed an experiment with a potato gun about gravity.

  • I don't remember much about it because I was distracted.

  • He's one of those little boys who you just know is gonna

  • be gay. - Oh.

  • - [Mavis] It was adorable, you know the type.

  • He's 8 and I thought he was going to

  • dislocate a hip from swishing so hard.

  • - Cute!

  • - [Mavis] He kept doing that thing where he delicately pulls

  • his bangs over the side with his ring finger.

  • He was kind of doing duck face the whole time.

  • - [Gillian] Terrific, did you meet any other children?

  • - Well I met his friends, they were of course, all girls.

  • - Naturally.

  • - [Mavis] I feel bad for them because they're all

  • going to be in love with him, until he comes out.

  • - Oh yes, they like that he's non-threatening

  • and they don't know why.

  • - Exactly, big BTS posters on all of their walls,

  • I just know it.

  • They'll all be on the lighting crew

  • of the high school play together.

  • - Mavis, did he ever explain how gravity works?

  • - Not really, honestly I don't know how it works,

  • do you? - No I don't.

  • Bethany do you know how gravity works?

  • - I know the basics, but the specifics allude me.

  • - Me too. We're going to go oh- (laughs)

  • We're going to go to reporter Susan Pershing

  • for information on a man hunt underway downtown.

  • Susan, are you with us?

  • - I am Gillian.

  • - Susan rather than tell us about the man hunt,

  • can you explain in detail, how gravity works?

  • - Certainly, so gravity is a force that operates at

  • negative .8 meters per second squared and it is what keeps

  • us grounded into the earth.

  • It is basically a mysterious kind of thick mist

  • - [Susan] that we all walk through everyday and kind of

  • gradually as we age, it tapes us further, further

  • down into the earth, so the older you are,

  • the less likely you are to fly away.

  • - Oh, hmm, well that's interesting.

  • Say more about that.

  • - Oh and I will

  • (laughs)

  • - [Susan] So you know how I mentioned its like a thick mist,

  • scratch that, its like the biggest blanket you've ever seen.

  • Picture a blanket, now double it.

  • That's what I'm talking about, so thick you can

  • barely move through it.

  • Imagine walking through a big bowl of fudge,

  • you can barely move right?

  • That's what gravity is doing to you.

  • The only people who say they've really experienced

  • what its like to feel free, have been in outer space,

  • and usually died.

  • - Is acceleration connected to or independent of gravity?

  • - Hmm, what wonderful question.

  • - [Susan] I think its independent of gravity but

  • f*** if I know, you know what I mean?

  • - [Susan] If I had to guess, I would say that

  • acceleration is sort of like when you're traveling

  • through that same blanket, or fudge that we were talking

  • about, really fast.

  • So that would be the difference.

  • Traveling really fast, versus traveling really slow.

  • - Why is that?

  • - Well you see the (laughs)

  • - [Susan] You see, wow you're curious today,

  • (laughs)

  • you see when acceleration--

  • - The kid didn't answer me so we'll need to hear from you.

  • - [Susan] Oh interesting all right okay.

  • So I do remember from what, whatever I'm reporting on,

  • which is a crime, right?

  • - [Susan] But acceleration is what velocity over

  • time or something?

  • And that's what's interesting about it because,

  • other than that, no one really knows,

  • aside from my fudge analogy and that little thing.

  • - That all sounds right to me.

  • - [Susan] Oh, good!

  • - That's all for us but before we go,

  • this weeks loser is Mary Holland.

  • What a shmuck.

  • - Hey thanks for watching.

  • (laughs)

  • - [Gillian] (laughs) thanks for watching.

  • - Just giving up.

  • (laughs)

  • - [Producer] Breaking news, this just in.

  • You have just watched another episode of,

  • Breaking News, there are 10 episode only available

  • on Dropout.TV, go to Dropout.TV and start your

  • free trial today.
