The show mixed personal humiliation and elaborate comedy, including Ashley's accidental kick to Eddie, her frantic rescue of Sammy from a wasp, Boston Rob's women's-jeans confession, and Sky's chaotic spoof interview with four octuplets. In Cheaters Hotel, Annette's suspicion over Kurt's Bride Wars ticket ended with Kurt choosing her for the gift basket and admitting he saw the movie alone. The hosts also dissected Stephen King's attack on Stephanie Meyer's writing, Rod Blagojevich's evasive interviews with David Letterman and Larry King, Johnny Knoxville's fake grenade at LAX, and Wells Fargo's bailout-era Vegas retreat. Their sharpest argument concerned Australia's proposed removal of severely obese children: Sky framed ignored medical advice as neglect, while the others raised genetics, proportionality, and government-overreach concerns.

What happened, in order

  1. Denny's Grand Slam Rush

    Denny's free Grand Slam promotion drew huge lines, improvised shared tables, and even rain checks, while callers debated whether waiting that long for a four-dollar breakfast made sense.

  2. Ashley's Accidental Kick

    During the Ashley After Show, Ashley accidentally swung her leg into Eddie's testicles, leaving him in pain and everyone replaying her horrified reaction.

  3. Stephen King Slams Twilight

    Stephen King praised J.K. Rowling as a terrific writer but said Twilight author Stephanie Meyer could not write well, sparking an argument about literary quality versus enormous commercial success.

  4. Drug Deal on 911

    A 20-year-old put a returning 911 dispatcher on hold to arrange what police recognized as a heroin sale, leading officers straight to him and the drugs.

  5. Cheaters Hotel: Bride Wars

    Annette tested boyfriend Kurt with the Cheaters Hotel prank after finding a Bride Wars ticket, but he named Annette for the romantic gift basket and admitted he had watched the chick flick alone when Taken was sold out.

  6. Blagojevich Meets Letterman

    David Letterman and Larry King pressed Rod Blagojevich about the alleged sale of Barack Obama's Senate seat, and the hosts argued that his evasive analogies and nonstop media tour made him sound guiltier.

  7. Ashley Versus the Wasp

    Ashley screamed, grabbed her dog Sammy from the patio, pulled on one Ugg, and repeatedly stomped a giant wasp because she feared an allergic sting could kill Sammy.

  8. The Octuplets Interview

    Sky tried to interview four spoof octuplets named Peter, Stuffy, Nutsy, and Heather, but the diva babies dodged questions about their sperm-donor father and promoted imaginary acting careers instead.

  9. Knoxville's Fake Grenade

    Johnny Knoxville explained that a wardrobe worker accidentally packed a fake grenade from a Nitro Circus shoot into his luggage, prompting a major security response at LAX.

  10. Wells Fargo's Vegas Retreat

    The crew condemned Wells Fargo for planning a lavish 12-day Las Vegas employee retreat after receiving a 25-billion-dollar bailout, rejecting its claim that the trip used different money.

  11. Boston Rob's Women's Jeans

    Boston Rob's blog revealed that he once bought and tried on women's designer jeans without realizing it, then endured a humiliating return and relentless mockery from the crew.

  12. Removing Obese Children

    The show debated an Australian proposal to remove extremely obese children from parents who ignored medical guidance, weighing preventable health neglect against genetics and dangerous government overreach.
