The show bounced between absurd staff stories and serious local news: Sean defended stripping down in the restroom and later tried to pass remastered Star Trek off as current television, while Ashley's tone-deaf karaoke and wrong-way Little Italy turn became running jokes. Sky and callers argued that marriage makes a spouse's plate fair game, while Eddie delivered sarcastic Tough Love responses about friendship, anti-Mexican paranoia, and wedding karaoke. The hosts condemned Mike Aguirre's behavior during a chaotic Family Justice Center debate, discussed a 12-year-old charged over a dry-ice bomb, and attacked SDSU protesters who objected to a DEA drug sting. In the most serious interview, Tracy Lynn Moe said Laura Wyand gave her daughter Kelsey Lynn Phelps methadone before the 17-year-old died, and she called for prison time and public education against sharing prescriptions.

What happened, in order

  1. Sean's restroom ritual

    A caller got Sean to admit that he removes most of his clothes to use a work restroom stall, prompting the crew to propose a special "potty gown."

  2. City Hall meltdown

    A debate over outsourcing the Family Justice Center to the YWCA erupted after a board member said City Attorney Mike Aguirre threatened her, and Aguirre was called out of order and had his microphone cut.

  3. Star fires at Barbara

    After Barbara Walters discussed Star Jones's secrecy about gastric-bypass surgery, Jones accused Walters of humiliating people and attacking her merely to sell a book.

  4. Tone-deaf karaoke

    Callers struggled to identify Ashley's wildly off-key versions of Whitesnake and En Vogue before one contestant finally recognized Warren G.

  5. Tough Love with Eddie

    Eddie answered listener letters with savage comic advice about a possessive friendship, a racist theory of a Mexican electoral takeover, and a bride's plan for wedding karaoke.

  6. The plate-picking war

    Sky revealed that after 11 years her husband finally objected to her digging through his nachos, setting off a long argument over permission, first bites, and whether married couples' food is community property.

  7. Dry-ice bomb at school

    A 12-year-old Mira Mesa middle-school student confessed to detonating a dry-ice bottle bomb in a trash can and faced felony destructive-device charges.

  8. The child hacker

    Caller Athena described a gifted 12-year-old neighbor who allegedly hijacked the block's internet connections, hacked the government, stole thousands of dollars, and was then barred from computers.

  9. Sean TV's Star Trek loophole

    Sean ignored the crew's demand for current television by calling remastered Star Trek episodes new, then explained the episode about an entire vanished lifetime that made him cry as an adult.

  10. Kelsey Phelps case

    Tracy Lynn Moe said Laura Wyand gave her 17-year-old daughter Kelsey Lynn Phelps methadone before Kelsey died, then withdrew a planned guilty plea when prison appeared likely.

  11. Ashley's wrong-way turn

    Ashley recounted mistaking a wrong-way lane near Little Italy for a right-turn lane, confronting oncoming traffic, and reversing roughly 25 feet back to safety.

  12. SDSU drug-sting protest

    The hosts mocked students protesting the SDSU drug sting, arguing that DEA arrests are themselves drug prevention while Ashley maintained that similar drug activity probably existed at many colleges.
