vice presidential debateRed Sox superstitions28 hour radio showtone deaf karaokechild driving safetyeating contesthome invasionshark rescuefamily conflictrainbow conspiracyradiocomedy

Mike and the crew argued over Sarah Palin and Joe Biden before the vice-presidential debate, with Mike saying selective questions can make anyone look dumb while others pressed Palin for direct answers. Boston Rob described his extreme Red Sox superstitions, and Mike and Sky clashed over whether letting a toddler steer from a parent's lap is meaningful bonding or needless danger. The show's big comedy contests featured Ashley's nearly unrecognizable tone-deaf karaoke and her emotional 23-19 Whopper loss to P1 Quimby, while a planned charity auction offered a date with Zeth. In more serious stories, P1 Mike recounted being maced by an armed fake cop during a home invasion, and the crew covered a man punching a shark to save his puppy. Sky also tied advice about hostile in-laws to her old restaurant-radio conflict, and the show capped another memorable stretch by ridiculing a sprinkler-rainbow conspiracy video.

What happened, in order

  1. Boston Rob's playoff quarantine

    Boston Rob admitted that Red Sox playoff games make him so tense and superstitious that his fiancee leaves the room and parts of his house become off-limits after bad plays.

  2. The Palin-Biden dumb-off

    Mike and the crew previewed the vice-presidential debate by sparring over Sarah Palin's knowledge, Joe Biden's historical gaffe, and whether media questioning was designed to make Palin look foolish.

  3. Twenty-eight-hour delirium

    The show replayed a sleep-deprived meltdown from a previous 28-hour broadcast in which Ashley called Boston Rob Sideshow Bob and angrily attacked his unwashed ponytail.

  4. Tone-deaf karaoke

    Callers tried to identify hit songs from Ashley's wildly off-key renditions, with P1 Spaceboy somehow recognizing Savage Garden while other contestants missed Dead or Alive, 311, and the Scorpions.

  5. Driving on Dad's lap

    Mike called steering a car from his father's lap a cherished bonding memory and hinted that he lets his own toddler do it, while Sky argued that a child's enjoyment does not make the practice safe.

  6. Dr. Fett's crash diet

    A request to lose 20 pounds in two weeks became a Dr. Phil parody in which Mike's Dr. Fett prescribed prison, insulting diet books, tapeworms, and a cruel Yankee Doodle lullaby.

  7. The Whopper showdown

    In the Ashley Eating Competition, P1 Quimby beat Ashley 23 Whoppers to 19 in one minute, prompting Ashley to throw candy, blame her two-handed strategy, and nearly cry.

  8. Man punches shark for puppy

    The crew celebrated a Florida man who dove underwater and punched a shark hard enough to make it release his 14-pound rat terrier.

  9. The fake-cop home invasion

    P1 Mike said an armed intruder posing as a police officer forced into his Vista house, broke his bong, maced him, accused the residents of selling marijuana, and fled without stealing anything.

  10. Auctioning a date with Zeth

    To raise money for Children's Hospital during the 28-hour show, the crew planned to auction a same-night date with Zeth starting at 25 cents and opened the bidding to everyone.

  11. In-laws and the hurricane bit

    While advising an engaged cheater to confront hostile future in-laws honestly, Sky recalled her own feud after leaving her mother-in-law's restaurant to air a comedy bit in which her vagina reported from a hurricane.

  12. The government rainbow conspiracy

    The hosts mocked a self-posted video by a woman who saw a sprinkler rainbow and concluded that metallic salts in the water or oxygen proved something unnatural was oozing from the ground.
