This is a very, very unique episode! Chris Tidwell was unavailable this week as he had a separate gig to tend to, so Donnie decided to try and find a guest co-host. The person he found has been a guest on this show 3 times before, is a reality tv star and fitness icon - Christmas Abbott!
In her role as co-host, Christmas decided to book a guest, so she pulled her long time friend from Season 19 of Big Brother - the man who WON Sea...

Donnie may have peed his pants from laughing so hard during this week's episode. He and Tid are joined by their pal - award winning filmmaker and comedian Joey Medina. Joey was on the road, getting ready for a show in San Diego, and unfortunately, his wifi was pretty awful. As a result, we got a little out of him, but his signal kept dropping out at the weirdest moments, and it entertained us to no end.
