Dear Pod,

Get out your Ouija boards and settle in. Who knows who's gonna haunt us in this weeks GRAB BAG. What kind of head protection should one wear during sex?

Just in time for the end of Baseball season and Football in the Fall, this one is all about SPORTS. Do you lose your husband on a nightly basis to all of his extracurricular, physical activities?

Jesus, we're going to need help with this one. Oh. I'm sorry. I was actually praying to Jesus for guidance through this weeks episode. Cause, it's all about RELIGION.
