Just The Gist

While chatting this week in Breakin’ Nooz about 50 Cent’s new Diddy documentary ‘Sean Combs: The Reckoning’, Rosie mentioned the episode we did about ‘The Diddy Situation’ back in 2024 for Patreon members. We were travelling around the country and still calling Breakin’ Nooz ‘From The Van’! There’s obviously been a couple of updates in the case since then, but it’s a good breakdown of Sean ‘Puff Daddy’ Combs and the history that ended with him as such an awful criminal. NOTE: We literally recorded this in the Aussie Outback, so the sound isn’t the best! .CW: While we don’t go into any detail, this episode obviously does deal with the crimes of abuse that Sean Combs has been convicted of.

In 1976 in Chowchilla, California, an entire school bus filled with children disappeared without a trace. Less than a day later, all 26 of them, along with bus driver Ed, escaped from a hole underground with a terrifying story about being taken by three masked men. Soon, three very wealthy young men, from some of the most well-off families in town, were found with a piece of paper with the word ‘PLAN’ written at the top, followed by a list of the children's names. This is Just The Gist of the Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping - an eyerolling example of ‘Why Are Men’, but also an event that forever changed the way we look at the ongoing effects of childhood trauma. .We give you Just The Gist, but if you want more, there's Breakin' Nooz, JTG After Show AND Bonus eps!

There was screaming. There was crying. It was one of the most iconic TV moments of all time - on September 13, 2004, Oprah gave all 300 members of her talk show audience a brand new Ponitac G6 Sedan. But, while the rest of us ended up with possibly the greatest meme in internet history, the audience members each ended up with a bill for thousands of dollars, because their brand new ‘free’ car wasn’t actually free at all..We give you Just The Gist, but if you want more, there's Breakin' Nooz, JTG After Show AND Bonus eps!

In 1985, a man called Andrew Thornton II crash-landed in a random driveway in Kentucky after his parachute didn’t open. He was wearing a bullet-proof vest, night vision goggles and a pair of Gucci Loafers. He also had a duffel bag filled with 35kg of cocaine. But Thornton originally had 75kg of cocaine, and it wasn’t until two months later, when a North American Black Bear was found to have had a very, VERY fun time in the nearby woods, that the police were able to figure out what happened to the rest of Andrew’s stash. Cocaine Bear became a Kentucky legend, and its taxidermied body went on a decades-long journey that was almost as eventful as his two-week bender. This is Just The Gist of Cocaine Bear.We give you Just The Gist, but if you want more, there's Breakin' Nooz, JTG After Show AND Bonus eps!
