All right, time for a new segment. Yeah, honestly, and this is going to be great, but we have to warn you, if you're sensitive to adult language, and not every adult uses this language, important to point out, you might want to slide away. I don't know, I'd tell you to go mow the lawn, but that's impossible in most areas of Canada in late December, so don't worry about that.

Some of the clips we'll play are going to have some colorful language. Oh, now you're interested. With that being said, it's time now for Is It BS or Is It Real? See, now that's some bullshit. This is bullshit. Man, this is some bullshit. You want answers? I think I'm entitled.

You want answers. I want the truth. You can't handle the truth. You are fake news. Okay, so I want you to play along at home. This segment is evolving. It's all about evolution. Remember on The Simpsons when Walter, it sounded like,

like Homer Simpson sounded like Walter Matthau? Brutal. And then they figured out the voice, and they stuck with it for the next 24 years. Here's story number one. So you play along at home. I'm going to tell you a story, you answer, aloud or otherwise, if it's real or if it's BS. That word that I would never say, ever say in public, like to my kids, anywhere. Let's get started. Story one.

Did Google Street View catch a murder suspect loading a body into a car? Here's the story. A Google Street View camera caught the image of a suspect allegedly loading a corpse into his car in Spain. The car shoots the 360-degree map footage, happened to be passing through a tiny town, and it caught the disturbing sight so this image has a 48 year old suspect bending over to stuff a large object wrapped in white plastic into the trunk of his burgundy colored sedan and the only reason police and local authorities got him was the footage from a google street view camera it is that real or is that bs give yourself a second we'll let breathe we'll count to like one or so is it possible this story is true yes it is okay how is that for a dramatic interlude it

is real it is absolutely real story two we'll crank it up again. This is uncomfortable for me. This is the language part I struggle with. Can your penis turn to bone? I mean, I don't work blue. This is more a Ben story than a Greg story. I promise you that. I'm blushing. Can your penis turn to bone?

A man's routine visit to the doctor turned into a nightmare after physicians discovered that his penis was turning to bone. The unnamed patient. Thank goodness he's unnamed, right? First of all. Because we'd be Googling him right now. Just the name. Not the other thing I mentioned.

The P word. He's in his 60s. He reported to the doctor's office for trauma of the knee. Sounds familiar. During the visit, he also alerted medics of a pain in his penis. They conducted an x-ray to look for possible pelvic fractures. That could be that. During the visit, he also alerted medics of a pain in his penis area. They conducted an x-ray to look for possible pelvic fractures. That could be that. And learned he had, quote, extensive plaque-like calcification along the length of his manhood.

Okay, I'm way more comfortable saying manhood. Despite this, the man declined further examination or treatment, generally remedied via topical medicines injections or oral painkillers the condition can also be treated through shockwave therapy doctors use sonic pulses to break down the calcified mass the patient's abrupt departure left the cause of this unclear can your manhood turn to bone is this real it's fact oh gosh okay something to be aware of for your next check-in if you even can get it or have a family doctor story three let's go celebrity we got i think we got an a-lister in this particular story did mark walberg turn down a $2 billion Disney project over wokeness. Again, this may be more of a Ben story than a Greg story, but either way, either way, let's do it. Actor Mark Wahlberg refused a high-paying role in a Disney project due to his political beliefs.

Wahlberg posted on social media, money can't buy principles. Some social media users loved that and responded nice to see hollywood folks standing up for morals another wrote a man of integrity great to see it mark walberg is not the first actor to turn down a disney project for the same reasons denzel washington declined a 50 million dollar project saying the company was just too woke. That, is that, is that real? See, now that's some bullshit. Yeah, that's not, that's not real. Wahlberg, you've seen some of the Wahlberg movies,

some of the comedies. He doesn't, he doesn't turn down much. Likes those checks. Is The View, what a story. Is The View, right? Everybody's favorite show. It's on at the gym sometimes. You can't hear what any

of these ladies are saying or understand the is it about to be canceled is this true the ceo of abc has announced plans to cancel the daytime talk show the view maybe you heard about this dana walden said well the show has had tons of success during its run the time was now to move on walden added stay tuned something exciting will be announced in its place speaking of the ben moroney show i'm kidding he's coming back no word yet on if whoopi goldberg or anyone on the team will be involved in the new project many speculated this was long time coming due to the decline of ratings is this this is this real? This is bullshit. Oh my heavens.

Okay, we don't have to get so excited about it. Nobody gets this excited about the view, except the hosts themselves. Story five. I like this one. Did a man die after a bear shot in a tree fell on him while he was hunting? Here's what happened. or did it a hunting group

was following the bear when it ran up the tree the group retreated from the tree and a hunter shot the bear i mean that's what that's what hunters do right the animal the bear fell onto another hunter standing about 10 feet from the bottom of the tree a member of the group rendered first aid not to the bear before the man was rushed to two different hospitals the 58 year old man subsequently died from his injuries is this real a similar event did take place okay great, great. And one more for you. Did an employee who was resigning go number two in his CEO's Lamborghini? Wait a minute. A New York CEO is suing his employees because he alleges one of his employees took a number two through the top of his convertible Lamborghini while other employees watched.

The employees lashed out after the CEO eliminated all of their Christmas bonuses. I can't imagine. With the CEO stuck in meetings all day, the employees went down to the parking underneath the building and they paid off the parking attendant to look the other way.

Who would pay? What's the cost for a parking attendant to take? We're going to do a number two in a car. Here's what's the right amount. It's more than 10 bucks. When the CEO was leaving for a business lunch, he discovered the mess in his car. After checking security footage, the man confronted his employees, which led to four of them being forced to quit. The matter's before the courts.

I'd watch that trial. I'd even be jury on that trial. Jury duty? That sounds great. As the employee who did it is being sued for criminal damage to property. There's just... Is this real? Man, this is some bullshit!

I wanted it to be true. Because right away... Also, do your insurance rates go up in your Lamborghini? They're high enough as it is. Especially if you've been in some kind of a fender bender. That was a fun version of is it real or is it the other thing? And it didn't get me to say too many uncomfortable words.
