An effective way to overcome your difficulties is to try to view things from another prospective. Sometimes those difficulties are a mother and daughter not seeing eye to eye. Sometimes they are trying to win a mediocre game show. Either way, a Freaky Friday situation is certainly in order. And it looks like we are swapping... Ed O'neill and Scrappy Doo? I must be reading that wrong, right? Right?!?!

Zach reveals his tongue condition, Jared breaks new culinary ground, and Adam recounts the entire story of Rumpelstiltskin.

Talking Points Include: A Raw Jalapeño Snack, Graduation Vows, Eating the Shells, Garage Sale Scores, Rumpelstiltskin Revisited, The Old Man List, A Freaky Friday Situation

If the story of Rumpelstiltskin can teach us anything, it's this. 1: All riddles must have finite answers. 2: All riddles can be solved by quick witted heroes. 3: All riddle askers will eventually go home, get drunk, and wildly scream the answers to their riddles. All we've gotta do is follow this riddle troll home.

Zach finds himself in the middle of a Shrek debate, Jared is the resident Humpty Dumpty expert, and Adam proposes a set of inherent riddle truths.

Talking Points Include: Making Dad Friends, Baba Yaga Transportation Methods, Classic Riddle Stories, Rumpelstiltskin's Blunders, Moderating a Humpty Debate, Shrek Polls
