Headlines

Headlines is (typically) the first segment during The Church of Lazlo everyday starting just after the intro around 3:15. In this segment, Slimfast chooses three (though this number can vary) of the days top news stories, accompanied with audio to share with Lazlo. An organ music bed is played in the background during this segment to go along with the "church" theme. Lazlo has said before that all headlines must come from the United States and Slimfast rarely diverges from this preference. On Friday's Slimfast parodies popular songs while changing the songs lyrics to be about that days headlines. This originally was only done to rap songs and earned the title of "Rap The Headlines." In 2016, Slimfast decided to mix it up and began parodying songs from all genres.
