Chris told Mikey how his family sold Babe Ruth's first All-Star Game home-run ball for $805,000, choosing his parents' surgeries and security over keeping the heirloom. Skye detailed the Oceanside confrontation in which off-duty officer White shot Silva and her son, and the crew argued that Silva's apparent aggression did not fully explain White displaying a gun and firing five times. Mikey, Eddie, Ashley, Boston Rob, Sean and Chantel turned everyday mishaps into comedy through the bank-teller disaster, the dog incident, movie trivia, Battle of the Sexes, morning tempers, appearance compromises and an argument over naked children. The show also reacted to Florida teenagers potentially facing life for a videotaped beating, then closed with Mikey's account of alcoholism, isolation, faith, treatment and recovery.

What happened, in order

  1. Dog Pees on Ashley

    Ashley said her dog recognized that she was leaving for her boyfriend's house and peed directly on her bare feet as she checked her hair.

  2. The Teller Proves Rob Right

    Boston Rob's distrust of automated banking became comic vindication when a new teller accidentally debited his account repeatedly and made his money disappear before coworkers fixed it.

  3. The $805,000 Babe Ruth Ball

    Chris explained that his grandfather caught and had Babe Ruth sign the first home-run ball from the first All-Star Game, then revealed that he sold it for $805,000 to fund his parents' surgeries and pay off their home.

  4. Cheerleaders Face Life

    The hosts were stunned that eight Florida teenagers accused of kidnapping and beating a girl on video could be tried as adults and face life in prison.

  5. Movie Word Association

    The crew played an elimination game naming movies from prompts, with Ashley instantly losing by offering the Guns N' Roses song 'November Rain' for a movie title containing a month and Eddie ultimately winning.

  6. Team Sass Finally Wins

    Chantel joined Ashley and Skye for Battle of the Sexes, where Skye's answers about the Dallas Stars and point spreads carried Team Sass to its first victory over the men.

  7. Morning Grumpiness

    A listener's complaint about his wife policing the milk in his cereal launched stories from Rebecca, Skye, Ashley, P1 Quimby and others about needing up to two hours before they can tolerate conversation.

  8. Oceanside Road-Rage Shooting

    Skye reconstructed how off-duty officer White shot Silva and her eight-year-old son after a parking-lot confrontation, while the crew argued that Silva appeared aggressive but White's displayed gun, unexplained stop and

  9. Changing for Your Partner

    Ashley's longer nails prompted a debate in which Skye said she keeps her hair as her husband prefers, Chris recalled shaving his goatee for his wedding, and Eddie insisted he would never shave his.

  10. Busiest Chains Quiz

    The group guessed the world's busiest McDonald's and Hard Rock Cafe and the busiest U.S. Outback, Domino's, Nordstrom, AMC, Toys R Us and Jiffy Lube, repeatedly defaulting to Times Square.

  11. When Kids Need Clothes

    Boston Rob's report of naked young children in his neighborhood sparked a parenting argument in which Mikey and Eddie favored clothes from birth while Skye allowed more leeway at home, the beach or a pool.

  12. Mikey's Recovery Testimony

    Mikey described early alcoholism, an eating disorder, crushing isolation, praying to Jesus Christ when he believed he was dying, entering treatment with his family's support and finding lasting hope in recovery.
