We have a special guest today.
Jimmy spit everywhere. Suspect stroke.
Jimmy could not be more excited about Ken.

Ah, there we go! Good-natured frivolity ensues.
Jimmy gives Eliot and Matt the business.
Eliot driving around in his Bono glasses like an asshole.
Jimmy wants to know if a meeting took place to upgrade Eliot to third banana.
I was not privy to that meeting. I thought I was third banana. Matt suspects that Batman set went to my head.
Eliot’s out of Eddie Izzard and Magic the Gathering.
05 – Jimmy demonstrates how not to speak when your mic is on. Tighten those jaws.
He is going to murder one day.
Matt suggests we all go in on wiring Eliot’s jaw shut.

Jimmy enjoys a Diet Pepsi at the DFW airport.
Jimmy wants to curb the usage of fuck on the show.

Jimmy’s team is held together with medical tape. He has no idea where he will end up at the end of the season.
Jimmy’s doing well in all four of his leagues. If jimmy wins all four he’ll rub his cock on his mic.
Jimmy also hurt his neck and isn’t sure how.

Matt does some impressions that are all the same.

Jimmy comes off great in that documentary.
Matt and Jimmy talk whether David Foster comes off like an asshole.
Ken Roberts brought a gift. He handed it to Matt. It’s clear it’s for Matt!

The Eliot puppet is HUGE.
Matt guesses it’s a 180G Beastie Boys LP.

It’s the MC Lyte Legend LP! Jimmy unhappy. Apparently he purchased it for Matt’s bday.
Lyte’s part of the puppet show!
Jimmy wants Matt to go get it autographed.
Ken Roberts has ruined Jimmy’s birthday gift!

Thanks for the gift Ken!

No one goes to Jimmy’s house. (apparently all of us have at some point).
No one goes to Jimmy’s so J. Keith never comes over.
Break!
We’re back to Eliot serenading us with some Streisand as we come back.
Headphone talk.
J. Keith demonstrates some improv.

70 – J. Keith introduced Jimmy and Danielle to Vance Gilbert who then led Jimmy to Ellis Paul which led Ellis to being a friend of the show!
Jimmy and J. Keith talk about Ross Bomgartner. That cannot be spelled right. Jimmy and his stepbro called and talked to Ross’s mom.

Korean BBQ talk? Apparently he talked to his therapist about it so he could take Oliver to Benihana.
ShabuShabu?
Apparently, a mammal is an animal that gives milk. J. Keith just learned this. So you can get orca milk.
