Eddie relived an absurd haircut, Skye described a family barbecue that ended with scraped hands and a drunken grandmother, and Ashley celebrated successfully cooking an elaborate first dinner. Zeth bought himself quiet from a late-night can collector, while Lencha defended staying for all 22 innings of a Padres loss and ESPN cornered Miguel Tejada over his real age. Mikey, Eddie, Skye, Ashley, and callers argued about surrendering television or driving, the crew priced imaginary teleportation, mocked the tiny turnout for Paris Hilton's reality show, and examined contradictory arsenic tests that freed a Marine widow. Sean turned the call-in segment into a conversation with himself, and Mikey closed by connecting his experiences of abuse, addiction, faith, and recovery to a message of hope for listeners.

What happened, in order

  1. Eddie's Impossible Haircut

    Eddie said a stylist cursed through his haircut and repeatedly claimed to shorten it even though it looked exactly the same each time.

  2. Skye's Barbecue Disaster

    Skye hosted twelve relatives for seven hours, bloodied her hands freeing wedged Tupperware, and watched her inexperienced husband accidentally get her grandmother drunk on an enormous gin pour.

  3. Ashley's First Real Dinner

    Ashley spent four and a half hours making pistachio-crusted halibut and elaborate green beans for her boyfriend, who told her the ambitious first meal was perfect.

  4. Five Dollars for Quiet

    Zeth paid a homeless man five dollars to stop noisily collecting cans outside his window at 11:30 p.m. and return in the morning.

  5. The Last Fan Standing

    Lencha explained that she stayed through all 22 innings of the Padres-Rockies game because every extra hour made her feel even more committed to seeing the final pitch.

  6. ESPN Ambushes Tejada

    ESPN confronted Miguel Tejada with a Dominican birth certificate showing he was two years older than claimed, and he struggled off his microphone before walking out.

  7. Television or Driving

    The crew argued over giving up television or driving forever, with Skye willing to move or rely on her husband for TV while Mikey and Ashley ultimately valued the independence of a car.

  8. The Vanishing Arsenic Case

    The hosts described how charges against a Marine widow were dropped after new tissue tests found no arsenic despite an earlier result allegedly measuring 1,020 times the normal level.

  9. Eddie's Teleportation Service

    Eddie priced an instant San Diego-to-Boston teleport at $5,000 and defended the bargain against a $60,000 private flight while Sean imagined technical limits and baggage fees.

  10. Paris Hilton's Tiny Turnout

    Only 40 to 50 people attended an open casting call to become Paris Hilton's best friend, and the hosts mocked her claim that she merely wanted applicants to avoid a long line.

  11. Sean Calls His Own Show

    Sean phoned the open forum from inside the studio, congratulated Team Awesome, interviewed himself about voting for John McCain, and forced Mikey to hang up on him.

  12. Mikey's Testimony

    Mikey disclosed childhood sexual abuse, addiction after his Howard Stern appearance, and the night he turned to Jesus Christ, telling listeners that recovery and hope were possible.
