Sit On Your Speaker
Jay reenacts a classic radio bit originated by Howard Stern. Back in the day, Stern made headlines pleasuring listeners by humming in his microphone and they would straddle their speaker.

Junkies & Peaches
Jay holds a Bonfire court-martial to address the insubordination that went on while he was away. On the last show, the crew didn't have Bob's back when Ron Bennington turned heel and ruined all the fun. The crew members lined up against the wall as Jay read the charges against each soldier. Jacob's radio instincts let the team down and Christine couldn't stop laughing throughout the process. | Big Jay got accepted into Joe Rogan's inner circle, known as "The Rogan Sphere." No longer an average comedian, this life-changing event gives Jay perks that only a privileged few will ever know. | Bobby's family took him to a ghetto mall for Father's Day where he enjoyed fatty treats.
