With Mikey sick, Garrett filled in while Jay, Woods, Sienna, and Lauren turned the show into a mix of scandal, sports, and escalating studio chaos. They attacked Anthony Weiner's coached cover-up, praised feverish Dirk Nowitzki over an eight-point LeBron James, and argued that Terrell Pryor and Jim Tressel had helped implode Ohio State football. The sharpest debate began when Sienna described a young father who wished he could undo his family, prompting callers to clash over lost youth, personal identity, and the duty to raise a child. The strangest comic bits included Jay's cargo-shorts mayoral platform, a Hippity-Hop beating contest, a 440-pound flying bear, and chocolate-covered cicadas churned into ice cream.

What happened, in order

  1. Weiner's Cover-Up Unravels

    The hosts condemned Anthony Weiner after Ginger Lee released emails showing that he and his team coached her to minimize their sexting relationship.

  2. Dirk Delivers With a Fever

    Woods praised Dirk Nowitzki for scoring 10 fourth-quarter points despite a 102-degree fever while blasting LeBron James for producing only eight points.

  3. Mayor Jay's San Diego

    Jay jokingly launched a mayoral campaign built around replacing Petco Park with a skate park, closing roads for bicycles, mandating cargo shorts, and banning clothing.

  4. Hippity-Hop Fight Club

    Jay and Woods demonstrated their daily ritual of beating each other with a child's Hippity Hop until Woods was hunched over and Jay had a red welt across his back.

  5. The Flying Bear Crash

    Sienna described a freak Canadian wreck in which a Pontiac launched a 440-pound black bear through a Pathfinder, killing two occupants while others survived.

  6. Ohio State Implodes

    Woods argued that Terrell Pryor's improper-benefits scandal, Jim Tressel's resignation, and Pryor's departure had gutted Ohio State's football program and exposed a culture of cover-ups.

  7. The Abortion Billboard

    Greg Foltz put up a billboard accusing his former partner of killing their unborn child even though he admitted he did not know whether Nani Lawrence had an abortion or a miscarriage.

  8. Would He Undo His Family?

    Sienna's story about a 26-year-old father who wished he could undo marriage and parenthood triggered callers to argue over regret, lost youth, responsibility, and whether raising a child means surrendering one's old iden

  9. What Not to Ask a Veteran

    Lauren said her Vietnam-veteran father hates being asked whether he killed anyone, leading the group to debate how civilians can respectfully thank veterans without pressing them about combat.

  10. Cicada Ice Cream

    The hosts recoiled at a Missouri shop's popular ice cream made from backyard cicadas that employees boiled, coated in brown sugar and chocolate, and mixed into a buttery base.
