Ashley described a showdown between dog owners and schoolchildren over a shared field, and caller P1 Cardiff argued that dog waste made the space unsuitable even when owners cleaned up. Brandy sought advice about a supervisor's body odor, while Skye triggered a separate argument by secretly paying to mow her neighbors' lawn and defending the intrusion as a favor. Wally surprised Mary with a live proposal and she accepted, after which the crew staged a generic-brand test, ridiculed Ashley's dog Lennon, and recoiled from Boston Rob's overnight turkey sandwich. The show also mocked Hillary Clinton's bowling joke, delighted in Adeline's sung voicemail, and argued that David Cook and American Idol failed to properly credit Chris Cornell's Billie Jean arrangement.

What happened, in order

  1. Dog Park War

    Ashley described elementary-school children protesting her group of responsible dog owners, launching a fight over whether the shared public field should welcome leashed dogs.

  2. The Smelly Supervisor

    Brandy asked how to tell a supervisor and lunch companion that she had severe body odor, and Mikey argued that a kind but direct private conversation was necessary.

  3. Hillary's Bowl-Off

    The crew mocked Hillary Clinton's April Fools' challenge to settle the Democratic race with Barack Obama by bowling, while Barbara called in to defend Clinton and spar with them.

  4. Secret Live Proposal

    Wally brought Mary into the studio under the guise of a prize visit, proposed live on the air, and received an immediate yes and a tearful embrace.

  5. Skye Mows Next Door

    Skye revealed that she paid a gardener to mow her absent neighbors' overgrown lawn without permission, insisting it was helpful while the crew and callers called it selfish and intrusive.

  6. Brand-Name Showdown

    Mikey and the crew argued over generic versus brand-name goods, then compared eye drops, tissues, and sandwich cookies and discovered the generic cookies were nearly indistinguishable.

  7. Lennon Gets Roasted

    After seeing photos on Ashley's blog, the crew relentlessly called her dog Lennon ugly, old-looking, and ferocious while Ashley defended her as adorable.

  8. The Overnight Sandwich

    Boston Rob ate a turkey sandwich that had spent the night in his car even after admitting that the turkey smelled and tasted like tuna.

  9. Adeline's Spring Message

    Boston Rob's mother Adeline left word that she loved him, prompting the crew to play her solemnly sung springtime answering-machine greeting and celebrate her eccentric personality.

  10. Billie Jean Credit Fight

    The crew accused American Idol of presenting David Cook's performance of Billie Jean as original even though it copied Chris Cornell's arrangement note for note.
