Mikey described how his and Rebecca's planned day in bed disappeared when Jake came down with the flu, while Boston Rob recounted the 115,300-person Dodgers exhibition at the Coliseum and the cast settled a caller's Padres-ticket dispute in favor of the caller's son. The show repeatedly mined its own cast for comedy: B-Rob parodied Mikey's Mr. Big karaoke, Sky outlasted Ashley and Rob in a 45-minute Dumb Chick Challenge, Boston Rob defended his invention and bar ideas, and Sky vented about her husband's recurring apple-butter explanation. On politics and identity, they mocked Hillary Clinton's contradicted sniper-fire story and argued with P1 Sarah over whether Mikey was whitewashed and responsible for teaching biracial Jake more Mexican history. News talk covered Joe Francis finding old Ashley Dupré footage, Al Gore's clash with climate skeptics and his own energy use, and a Black Mountain Middle School threat that pitted safety-first instincts against the warning not to live in fear.

What happened, in order

  1. Jake's First Flu

    Mikey and Rebecca's planned do-nothing vacation day vanished when Jake vomited, caught the flu, and became so limp and uncharacteristically cuddly that Mikey found the experience frightening.

  2. Hillary's Sniper Story

    Mikey and the crew mocked Hillary Clinton's claim that she and Chelsea had dodged bullets on a trip after calm arrival footage and the pilot's account contradicted her.

  3. Dodgers at the Coliseum

    Boston Rob described attending the Dodgers' 50th-anniversary exhibition at the Los Angeles Coliseum with 115,300 fans, a 201-foot left field, and a 61-foot net.

  4. The Stolen Padres Seat

    When P1 Padre Fan's friend tried to give a sold-out opening-day seat to another buddy after the caller had displaced his son to accommodate the friend's wife, the cast ruled that the son should get the ticket back.

  5. Mikey's Mr. Big Parody

    B-Rob turned Mikey's earnest revival of Mr. Big's “To Be With You” into a parody about his old jean-jacket era, leaving Mikey amused and humiliated.

  6. Cesar Chavez Confusion

    After Mikey confused Cesar Chavez Day with Julio Cesar Chavez and Oscar De La Hoya, his father explained the labor leader's work and P1 Sarah accused Mikey of being whitewashed and neglecting Jake's Mexican heritage.

  7. The 45-Minute Dumb Chick Challenge

    Sky, Ashley, and Boston Rob stumbled through questions about Afghanistan, Mel Blanc, Pluto, Benedict Arnold, and palindromes until Sky finally won for P1 Vicky by identifying Aruba.

  8. Boston Rob's Big Ideas

    Boston Rob guarded a website idea he was developing with his fiancée's cousin while the cast mocked his earlier socks-in-a-box dispenser, custom-cookie shop, and dream of opening a Boston-themed bar in San Diego.

  9. The Apple Butter Loop

    Sky explained that after 11 years together her husband still repeatedly asks whether she knows what apple butter is, and she finally snapped when he launched into the explanation again.

  10. Ashley Dupré in the Archive

    The crew discussed Joe Francis discovering seven hours of old Girls Gone Wild footage of Ashley Dupré after offering her $1 million, despite her having used a fake name and identification.

  11. Gore and the Electric Bill

    Al Gore compared man-made-global-warming skeptics to flat-earthers, while the hosts pushed back by ridiculing his former $12,000 monthly electric bill and arguing about whether his solar retrofit came only after he was c

  12. Threat at Black Mountain

    A dated death threat found at Black Mountain Middle School prompted extra police and a blunt debate between keeping children home because it was better to be safe and refusing to live in fear.
