Mikey, Woods, Lauren, and Jay opened with Steve Jobs leaving Apple, then turned Woods's narrowly avoided friar haircut and the Janie Lane 911 misunderstanding into running jokes. Their biggest comic bits were Jay's fighter-jet and Dracula impressions, Lauren's cleaning-lady text mix-up, a string of gym humiliations, and Jay ambushing Mikey and Woods in a dark bathroom. The crew also argued seriously about whether drunken Facebook photos should cost a babysitter her job and whether a robber who returned every dollar still deserved punishment. In the most personal stretch, Mikey said Rebecca believed he might be clinically depressed and explained that Rob, Ashley, Sky, and Eddie keeping him unaware of the old show's split had left him feeling betrayed and without closure.

What happened, in order

  1. Jobs Leaves Apple

    Steve Jobs resigning as Apple CEO sent Mikey and the crew into a tribute to the iPhone, a debate over how much of Apple's brilliance came from Jobs, and speculation about Tim Cook taking over.

  2. The Friar Hair Bet

    Woods escaped shaving a bald friar circle into his long hair when Tim Lincecum drove in the winning run and the Giants stopped the Padres' streak at five games.

  3. Older or Odor

    On the 911 recording from Janie Lane's death, a hotel employee repeatedly answered that Lane was 'older' when the dispatcher was actually asking whether there was an odor.

  4. The Babysitter's Facebook

    A listener asked whether to fire a reliable babysitter after seeing drunken Facebook photos, sparking an argument over private behavior, parental trust, and the judgment required of a caregiver.

  5. Carrey's Emma Stone Message

    Jim Carrey's intense video declaring affection for Emma Stone struck the crew as creepy, while Mikey theorized that the real target may have been his former partner Jenny McCarthy.

  6. Nancy Grace in a Fighter Jet

    Mikey made Woods improvise program director Garrett flying an F-18 with Nancy Grace, turning the scene into a frantic tour of Garrett's radio career while Grace could barely speak.

  7. Cleaning-Lady Text Disaster

    Lauren defended haggling an $80 cleaning quote, then discovered she had accidentally sent the cleaner a slang-filled pharmacy message meant for her friend Meryl.

  8. Jay's Imagations

    Jay's improvised 1930s gangster, John Wayne, and garlic-confused Count Dracula impressions collapsed into absurd voices that left the entire room breathless with laughter.

  9. Gym Humiliation Stories

    The crew and callers traded gym disasters involving a bench-press fart, removing weight after a stronger woman, crashing into racquetball glass, flying off a treadmill, and breaking an ankle during side steps.

  10. Mikey Opens Up

    Mikey said Rebecca feared he was clinically depressed and traced his unresolved hurt to former colleagues Rob, Ashley, Sky, and Eddie secretly continuing the old show while he believed the whole team would move together.

  11. The Returned Bank Loot

    A robber brought $2,262 back after his girlfriend scolded him, prompting a split between those who said the threat still made him guilty and those who argued the books were balanced.

  12. Bathroom Blackout Prank

    Jay recorded Mikey and Woods in neighboring bathroom stalls, killed the lights, hid beside the switch, and terrified Woods when he finally found his way out.
