Ricky Gervais defended provocative comedy by arguing that offense is taken, while insisting comedians must be able to defend every joke and sleep with their consciences. Mikey, Woods, Lauren O'Brien, and Jay repeatedly escalated personal bits, from Jay pantsing Woods and absorbing retaliation to a Tim Tebow wager involving a nightie, a toupee, oysters, and Jay's unwashed armpits. Nancy Grace threw John Ludwig off her show for blaming Joran van der Sloot's victim, and the crew separately debated anonymous Jets attacks on Mark Sanchez and whether Mayor Sanders's billion-dollar Chargers stadium could justify its cost. Joe Terranova urged listeners to research companies, cap losses, use ETFs, and sell when confidence disappears, before the hosts veered back into comic arguments about Burning Man, nude pregnancy photos, hygiene, and Lauren blowing on cold yogurt.

What happened, in order

  1. Gervais on Offense

    Ricky Gervais argued that offense is taken rather than given, but said comedians still must defend their jokes and live with their consciences.

  2. The Pantsing Feud

    Jay pantsed Woods during the national anthem, prompting Woods to kick him hard and later punch him in the butt while both men argued over who still owed retaliation.

  3. Nancy Grace Cuts the Mic

    Nancy Grace ordered John Ludwig off the air after he blamed Joran van der Sloot's murdered victim for confronting the suspected killer instead of leaving.

  4. Jets Turn on Sanchez

    Woods described anonymous Jets players calling Mark Sanchez lazy, entitled, and unfit to lead, while teammates such as Nick Mangold condemned them for hiding their names.

  5. The Billion-Dollar Stadium

    The hosts split over Mayor Sanders's proposed billion-dollar Chargers stadium, with Mikey touting jobs, Super Bowls, and civic pride while Lauren questioned blackouts, demand, and public spending.

  6. Woods Chlorinates by Smell

    Woods admitted he treated his hot tub by sight and smell, then sat in over-chlorinated water until his skin burned and the fumes made him sick.

  7. Jay Plans Burning Man

    Jay priced a return to Burning Man and recalled mud, loincloths, mushroom burgers, and a 15-minute padded-sword fight required to pass into the camp.

  8. The Tebow Bet

    Mikey and Woods turned Tim Tebow's playoff chances against Tom Brady into wagers involving a Tebow nightie, a bad toupee, raw oysters for completed passes, and licking Jay's unwashed armpits if Denver won outright.

  9. Underwear and Poo Fingers

    A survey about people rewearing underwear became a hygiene trial in which the crew branded Woods 'Poo Fingers' for sometimes rinsing without soap after using the bathroom.

  10. Nude Pregnancy Photos

    An M1's complaint about his wife's planned nude pregnancy photos triggered an argument over whether such pictures are meaningful private memories, strange displays, or future embarrassment for the children.

  11. Buy High, Sell Higher

    Joe Terranova told Mikey that ordinary investors should research earnings calls, define losses before buying, use ETFs for broad themes, and abandon stocks when the confidence story breaks.

  12. Lauren Blows on Yogurt

    Woods caught Lauren O'Brien blowing on cold Greek yogurt, and she confessed that a childhood soup habit makes her blow on nearly anything eaten with a spoon, including cereal and ice cream.
