This Mikey Show broadcast featured major format changes with Mike and Ashley switching roles (Mike becoming news girl, Ashley becoming host), Zeth becoming the new phone screener, and Boston Rob taking over hosting duties. The show was filled with absurd humor segments including discussions about women sharing men's razors, deodorant, and toothbrushes; Sky's ham-eating habit that became a running joke from boot camp in Denver; Eddie's lawnmower struggles; and Boston Rob dressing as a "gas monkey" to pull over cars with P1 Army stickers for gas card giveaways. Throughout the nearly 5-hour broadcast, they promoted various sponsors, played YouTube clips (including a woman deathly afraid of balloons from Maury Povich), and maintained their signature absurdist humor format with bits like the "dumb chick challenge" and endless debates about whether certain behaviors were gross or acceptable. The hosts also dealt with 911 busy signal experiences, fantasy football league dilemmas after a participant's death, and various listener stories about everything from handcuff sex mishaps to party-ruining behaviors.
