So apparently an actor slapped a comedian who told a joke? We briefly discuss the incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock before looking at our own lives. Which of us has slapped the sh*t out of someone for a joke? Which of us has slapped someone for talking about our spouse? More importantly, were the jokes funny? Later, we pull some quotes from Will Smith's Oscar acceptance speech and discuss how they reflect situations we've found ourselves in over the years. All of that plus Markus and Bryan settle a grudge 10 years in the making, Alex cries in the shower, and the story of a woman named Hannah Elizabeth who nearly destroyed the podcast and our friendship.
