A Joke That Went 'Too Far' & The Internet’s Biggest Cheating Scandal

Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show was pulled off the air last week and there has been a LOT of conversation around it politically, morally, constitutionally - but what does it all mean? And should we be freaking out? We break down the controversy you've seen in your feed and what it means for comedy in 2025.

Plus, remember Ned Fulmer? The original 'Wife Guy'? Well, he's back from his social media exile with perhaps the most awkward interview ever, sitting down for a podcast interview with his ex-wife. If you've forgotten 'The Try Guys' cheating drama, Jessie is here to fill you in and tell you the latest in one of the biggest cheating scandals on the internet.

And, do you ugly-cry on your birthday every year? Turns out you're not alone. We'll tell you why it's so common.
