Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, ML goes to Burt Lake while Erika hangs out in the basement with Marc and Shawn is lost at sea.
STRAIGHT DOPE: For reasons that no one can divine, ML starts the show by picking a fight with lovely little Monroe, Michigan. Perhaps his perverse love for Toledo is a factor.
In his latest naked appeal for your money, ML says Shawn has been laid off as part of a cost cutting move. We think he’s kidding, but it’s probably better that you pony up so we don’t have to find out.
Marc asks if Jaws, which turns 50 this summer, has aged well. Erika isn’t so sure, but ML raves about every scene featuring Robert Shaw, especially the one with the chalkboard and the fingernails.
Marc says Star Wars also does not age well, then he and Erika unwisely encourage ML to do his impersonation of Mark Hamill doing his impersonation of Harrison Ford.
Marc and ML ask Erika what the hell Sniffies is. Listen, learn, and stick to Tinder!
The good doctor’s alleged murderer had lots of lovers, and left lots of evidence. So why did it take so long to catch him. And did the delay cost another man his life?
ML somehow ties Brad Pitt into the Dr. Hoover murder story. Hear him out; it’s not as big or reach as you might think.
Marc is living on his own this week, keeping the curtains open and filling the dishwasher. Is he finding joy in solitude…or just squalor?
GEEK OF THE WEEK: Elon Musk, who helped put the Republican Party back in power, and is now threatening to wipe it out, is this week geek.
ROOM 7609: Listener Zach books Lard into the new wave suite to perform “Hellfudge,” causing ML to use that he may have missed his calling as a warbling front man.
DONATE OR SPONSOR US: Dan and Tamara make generous contributions to help keep the show going, even though Tamara wishes one part of the show would stop. Shawn would be proud.
FEEDBACK: Willow asks ML to reflect on his failed city council run, in the wake of the death of one of his opponents.
Willow also leads out down a road that ends up with one of our favorite Liam Neeson scenes.
MORE NEWS: The man that helped push ML out of television has been blown out at Fox 2.
