The Mikey Show moved from studio comedy to serious caller dilemmas: The Boo spent 90 minutes fighting Eddie's corroded faucet, Sean explained his paper-towel zipper ritual, and the cast ridiculed Boston Rob's unsafe turkey history. Mikey, Skye, Eddie, Ashley and callers debated whether love or respect matters more, generally choosing respect because affection without dignity can become belittling or abuse; later they argued over Elizabeth withholding sex and chores while pressing her boyfriend of three years to discuss marriage, and Skye defended a woman proposing. Weekend Worry Wars brought P1 Alexa's alarming report that her pregnant 17-year-old sister was expecting a second child while Alexa's boyfriend was suspected of stealing school laptops, plus P1 Alex's plan to ask an intimidating ex-military father for permission to marry his daughter. The show also reported Ryan Leaf's resignation after allegedly requesting a prescription pain pill from a player, crowned P1 Rob's unfinished drunken dragon the worst tattoo, marveled at an Arizona jogger who carried an attacking fox for a mile, and ended with Mikey apologizing for behavior during his alcoholism and describing Christian fai

What happened, in order

  1. The ancient faucet

    The Boo spent about 90 minutes wrestling a corroded faucet out of Eddie's condo while rust fell into his eyes and Eddie and Skye watched.

  2. Sean's zipper ritual

    Sean explained that he uses a paper towel to avoid touching his zipper and belt buckle, which is why he sometimes forgets to zip his fly.

  3. Ryan Leaf resigns

    The crew reported that Ryan Leaf resigned from West Texas A&M after allegedly asking one of his players for a prescription pain pill.

  4. Boston Rob cooks turkey

    Boston Rob insisted he could cook Thanksgiving turkey despite previously mishandling the thawing and broiling it until the top burned while the inside was not done.

  5. Love versus respect

    Mikey challenged the cast and callers to choose between love without respect and respect without love, and most chose respect because humiliation made affection feel false.

  6. Alexa's double crisis

    P1 Alexa said her 17-year-old sister was pregnant with a second child while her boyfriend was suspected of stealing laptops from the school where he worked.

  7. Permission from the father

    P1 Alex planned to wear a new suit and take his girlfriend's intimidating ex-military father to dinner to ask permission to marry her.

  8. Elizabeth demands an answer

    After three years together, Elizabeth stopped having sex with and cleaning up after her boyfriend because he refused even to discuss their future or marriage.

  9. The texting arms race

    Callers competed over enormous monthly text counts and bills, culminating in claims of 12,000 to 16,000 messages and charges as high as $2,000.

  10. The fox mile

    An Arizona jogger reportedly ran a mile with an attacking fox clamped to her arm so the animal could be captured and tested for rabies.

  11. The worst tattoo wins

    P1 Rob won tattoo removal for an unfinished dragon his brother started while both were drunk, a design no shop had agreed to cover in 12 years.

  12. Mikey's recovery testimony

    Mikey apologized for rude behavior he could not remember from his alcoholism and said Christian faith gave him recovery, presence and hope.
