Oscars hostsKirk DouglasCharlie Sheen interviewradio comedyRenaissance fairdating double standardsconvenience store challengediet secrecybody part hypotheticalsTaylor Swiftoscarsradio

Mikey, Woodsy, Lauren O'Brien, Sienna and Jay roasted the Oscars, argued over whether Kirk Douglas's appearance was joyful or exploitative, and treated Charlie Sheen's clean drug test as even more alarming because his interview remained grandiose and combative. Lauren supplied two of the funniest stories: a flatulent Renaissance-fair squire and a surprise lap dance that exposed her admitted double standard with Matt Commerce. Lyrical Chairs fed into a convenience-store punishment involving dried plums, pickled sausage and whole shrimp, before Ciro upstaged everyone by eating the worst items with extreme hot sauce and trying Copenhagen. Listener Pam's hidden-candy dilemma and the Taylor Swift debate turned the jokes into arguments about shame, hypocrisy, image and how much private behavior a partner or the public gets to judge.

What happened, in order

  1. Oscars Host Roast

    The crew called the Oscars boring, with Woodsy convinced James Franco was high while others thought he was terrified and Lauren O'Brien's dislike of Anne Hathaway's girl-next-door persona became part of the joke.

  2. Kirk Douglas Debate

    Kirk Douglas's playful presentation split the room between people who found him sharp and lovable and Mikey, who worried that putting an elderly stroke survivor onstage amounted to exploitation.

  3. Eight-Year-Old Jail Call

    After reporting that an eight-year-old had been arrested for the fifth time, the show improvised a darkly comic call in which the child begged his distracted parents to rescue him from a cellmate named Cornelius.

  4. The Gassy Squire

    Lauren described hearing a costumed performer fart behind a wall at a Renaissance fair, prompting an extended mock-medieval scene about a desperate, indigestion-stricken squire.

  5. Surprise Lap Dance

    Lauren wandered into an upstairs dance room, received an unsolicited comic lap dance while boyfriend Matt Commerce was in the bathroom, and admitted she would not tolerate the same thing happening to him.

  6. Jay Forgets the Eyeliner

    Jay forgot he was still wearing smeared eyeliner from a Justin Bieber punishment and calmly visited station executives and handed out cupcakes while nobody told him.

  7. Charlie Sheen Unraveling

    The crew played Charlie Sheen's sober-but-jittery interview, challenged his attacks on AA and Chuck Lorre, and marveled at claims about warlocks, tiger blood, Adonis DNA and winning.

  8. Convenience Store Roulette

    A game punishment left Mikey with chili-coated dried plums, Sienna with a pickled Tijuana Mama sausage, Lauren with whole dehydrated shrimp and Woodsy with the suspiciously lucky Twix.

  9. The Hidden Candy Evidence

    Caller Pam found candy wrappers and a peanut M&M's receipt while dieting with her husband, and the hosts argued over whether confronting him would protect his health or merely shame and police him.

  10. Ciro Becomes Stunt Boy

    Ciro casually ate dehydrated shrimp drenched in Dave's Insanity Sauce, tried Copenhagen and finished a discarded pickled sausage, turning himself into the show's instant stunt-boy hero.

  11. Choose a Body Part

    The hosts debated which body part they would sacrifice, then priced the humiliation of shaving their heads and settled into a serious negotiation over whether $50,000 or $100,000 would be enough.

  12. Taylor Swift on Trial

    Taylor Swift's dating life triggered an argument over whether she was a normal 21-year-old or a hypocritical serial dater whose innocent T-shirt-and-sneakers image did not match her behavior.
