Skye admitted that Zeth's canceled birthday dinner was revived without Eddie, prompting a tense argument in which Eddie stressed the plans he and his wife had changed while Skye said the outing came together at the last minute. Mikey and the crew debated whether Jeremiah Wright's sermons reflected on Barack Obama, then turned lighter material into the cursing LeapFrog toy, Battle of the Sexes, and a movie-title elimination game. They also reacted to Pam Babcock being stuck to a toilet for two years, dissected a Lost timeline trick involving Jin and Sun, and laughed at a live feud between Jim and Ollie. The show closed seriously as Mikey recounted his recovery from alcoholism and Teresa described leaving escort work, with both arguing that people trapped by addiction, abuse, or exploitation can still find help and hope.

What happened, in order

  1. The Birthday Dinner Snub

    Skye revealed that Zeth's supposedly canceled birthday dinner happened after all, upsetting Eddie because he and his wife had rearranged their schedules to attend the original plan.

  2. Jeremiah Wright Debate

    The crew played Jeremiah Wright's incendiary sermons and debated whether Barack Obama should answer for the views of the pastor who baptized his children.

  3. The Cursing Caterpillar

    A report about a LeapFrog alphabet caterpillar apparently spelling obscenities led callers to explain that later versions giggled instead of completing swear words.

  4. Battle of the Sexes

    Eddie, Boston Rob, Sean, Skye, Ashley, and Chantel traded gender-targeted trivia until Ashley lost the tiebreaker by saying the green light is on top.

  5. Movie Title Last Man Standing

    The cast improvised movie titles from categories such as kings, colors, names, and numbers, with Mikey outlasting Eddie in the final round.

  6. Two Years on a Toilet

    The hosts reacted in disbelief to the case of Pam Babcock, whose skin became bonded to a toilet after she stayed in her boyfriend Corey McFerrin's bathroom for two years.

  7. Cute Until Marriage

    Rob's baseball superstitions and his fiancee's road rage opened a confessional about partners' once-cute habits becoming maddening after years together.

  8. Spitzer and the Escort Spin

    After Eliot Spitzer's scandal, the crew mocked an ex-pimp's celebration and rejected a former escort's claim that prostitution was mainly about risk-taking and connection.

  9. Lost's Jin and Sun Twist

    Skye and Eddie excitedly unpacked how Lost intercut Sun's future childbirth with Jin's past errand before revealing Jin's grave.

  10. Anchor Versus Reporter

    A viral live-news clip captured anchor Jim and reporter Ollie insulting each other's journalism and dredging up the fact that Ollie used to be Jim's boss.

  11. Testimony and a Way Out

    Mikey described surviving alcohol addiction and childhood abuse before Teresa explained how faith helped her leave escort work and start JC's Girls at the Rock Church.
