$400K Lobster Heist, Christmas Cards Shut Down Parliament | This Is True Really News #1027

he criminal underworld has gone upscale! A $400,000 lobster shipment vanishes en route to Minnesota Costco stores, leaving the FBI hunting sophisticated thieves who now face a ticking clock—and 58 boxes worth of very angry crustaceans needing immediate attention.

Meanwhile in London, a bomb squad robot gets deployed to Parliament for what turns out to be the most British emergency ever: unsent Christmas cards. The Metropolitan Police shut down Westminster over a box labeled "most urgent" containing nothing but holiday greetings.

Plus, Lake Superior State University releases their 50th annual Banished Words List, and the mysterious Gen Z phrase "6-7" takes the top spot. We dive into overused slang, discuss why "my bad" and "reach out" won't die, and explore America's complicated relationship with New Year's resolutions (spoiler: 80% fail by mid-February).

Hosts Scot Combs and Tony Verkinnes deliver all the news that's true... really... as far as you know.
