howard (talking about the boston bomber): is there the death penalty in boston?
robin: yes.

i know nothing about what states do and dont have the death penalty but just by watching 2 seconds of coverage cnn let me know that massachusetts dose not have it but he can face death cause its federal charges, not state.

I too had the exact same reaction, but I don't expect that Robin has a full grasp on the details of our federal system.

In today's news, Robin was listing those who died in 2015, and said that ETM was one of them, until the staff informed her it was 2014.

Stuff like that happens all the time. I'll write "2015" into January because I've been writing "2015" for an entire year.

They'd tell fifth graders to get in line and that'd be me because I was doing it for the entire past academic year.

She said her brain had him dying in 2015.

Her brain has also told her to put coffee up her butt, buy a boat with a captain instead of learning how to swim, and to go to third-world countries to take drugs with a gurus/shaman.

Yeah, I think her brain lacks credibility.

We haven't heard much of her boat and racing lately...

She said a while back that she got rid of her race car a long time ago.

Yeah, not surprising at all. She's like Howard...pick something up and when she loses interest or can't get any better, off it goes. Notice how Howard hasn't mentioned chess lately, yet that's all he used to talk about.

The conspiracy theories on both of those though... Did ICC "advertise" on the show, similar to how it was rumored that Apple did? Likewise, with Robin's race car, did it have to do with Bubba not being renewed?

most of the stuff she gets wrong are just AP stories she either reads verbatim or tries to put her own spin on. the ETM mistake was pretty bad. there is no story closer to the show than ETMs death, you would think she would at least get that right. but then again, if i remember correctly, the first show back after his death robin didnt even know he had died until howard brought it up.

Let's just be thankful that she knows that Artie is no longer in the studio. I mean, she's not that bad to not notice.

Yesterday she read a story about a drunk driver who crashed his car and then dumped the injured passenger out of the car. It was excruciating to hear her pull one word at a time from the news article, adding "you know" between every other word.

even if it is a cult robin could probably benefit from that getting things done program. i was just listening to dr agus and robing was busting howards balls for not sending her a book for xmas and agus jumps right in with "i sent you one". robin had no idea. that made me chuckle.
