Trust us, you will love it when you find out who shows up as our mystery guest. We used to play this guessing game on the Jeff and Jer Show. Each of us asks yes or no questions to determine who the person is. The Mystery Guest always disguises their voice. You will be overjoyed, touched, inspired, and nostalgic when you discover who it is. Producer Bryan embarrasses Laura by outing her YouTube sea...

Also, we bring back the Mystery Sound game, be sure to let...

Laura rattles off topics like "TV Show" and we all pick which one we think is the Greatest of All Time. What about french fries? What's the GOAT in your opinion? We bust out our respective Nextdoor Apps for a round of HOOD WARS. Who's area has the craziest things going on...hint...it's Laura's hood. What are the 10 things we all PRETEND to enjoy but don't and Erik's neighbor complains....about ERI...

What kinds of things are you ok doing alone? We discuss what we are comfortable doing and won't do alone. Laura's brilliant idea of having a stand-up comedy contest among us goes over like a lead balloon with Erik. But, we think we have him convinced to do it so get ready for that contest soon.

Celebrity gossip we call the Double D news includes new stuff coming out about Diddy. And, we play a round of The Question game where we each pick a card and have to answer it honestly. Like, Laura picked a card "What was your first impression of me?" What did Produce...

This is one of our favorite games where Laura launches a scenario and we all have to give the lowest price we would do it for. Like, "What's your price to drink a cup of sweat from one of us on the show or what's your price to marry a complete stranger." Things get so funny when we play this game. Erik's car drama has escalated...a lawyer has now come into play! Are tacos truly sandwiches? Laura's...

The coolest surprise yet for Producer Bryan from Erik. It's for his 2nd anniversary with the show! Now, THIS makes Bryan almost pass out. You won't believe what Erik was blurting out, actually screaming, to Laura while they were on Facetime. The thing is she was at the airport surrounded by strangers. It was so embarrassing, all she could do was laugh. We welcome special guest, Anastasia Popova, a...

This is absolutely insane! Erik manages to get yet another Keanu Reeves personalized gift for Producer Bryan. This one is the coolest one by far. Erik also gives Laura a great early birthday present, which surprises the heck out of her. There's a funny game called "The 5 Second Rule" where you have to name three things on a card in 5 seconds to win a point. We got the Uncensored version so you can...

Ghosts, spirits, shadow people...do you believe? We have special guest Michael Brown of San Diego Ghost Tours on this episode. He's seen it all and he tells us what he's experienced since we last talked to him. We all took a field trip to a local park, which was built over an old cemetery. The headstones were moved back in the day, but not the bodies! We show you what we witnessed that night. He a...

This is one of the best interviews we've had on the show. Robert Bartko is the lead singer of George Michael Reborn, a tribute band that travels the world putting on a fantastically fun show singing Wham and George Michael songs. He looks and sounds just like him. His story is pretty incredible and what's even cooler is that his band is performing in San Diego on Laura's birthday, May 24th at Viej...

If you found a briefcase with a million dollars inside with a note smeared with blood with the word "DON'T" scribbled on it, would you take it or leave it?

This episode also includes a tarot reading, Producer Bryan's Wild Card, and a major bomb is dro...

It's official. Laura says it's time to get back out in the dating pool and she needs our help to create a kick-butt online profile. She tells us what she's learned about the do's and don'ts, the photos you should never include, and some "prompts" that will get the best responses. Erik and Producer Bryan chime in with their opinions. AND, we are joined by a surprise guest, dating expert, Dr. Vagine...

We play a compelling, funny round of the game "What's Your Price," where Laura gives Erik and Producer Bryan scenarios and we all have to write down the lowest price we'd do these things for. One of the scenarios is "What's your price to do a striptease in front of all of us down to your birthday suit?" Another one? "What's your price to leave your soon-to-be spouse at the altar?" And "What's your...

Lots of crazy things have been happening to Laura these last two weeks and she thinks it's all because of Mercury in Retrograde. So, she gives us a little lesson about the phenomenon, which Producer Bryan thinks is a bunch of crap. On that note, we share our "best" and "worst" moments from the weekend. Let's just say one of us rode in a tow truck, and not for fun. Erik serves up a giant dose of Do...
