Do you think that our political system is broken?

No, it's fixed.

Literal genius.

[u/machine4891]

That was superb. Especially that Pete's photo in addition to "marriage advice" question :D

[u/YourMayansMayVanish]

Thanks for posting this. I found it incredibly enjoyable. Their chemistry is insane.

[u/ADWeasley]

That was cute! I wish they would pair up the entire cast for this.

[u/Theo_Van_Doesblurg]

I wonder what Colin does backstage 2 or 3 times a year that is illegal and can I have some?

[u/[deleted]]

One thing I like compared to previous casts is that this current cast look like they’re always having fun. Nobody really looks miserable.

[u/Agianone]

This was great.

[u/ABCcafe]

That was surprisingly fun to watch.

Sorry, no lie detector segments live up to the ones conducted by Ed Torian on the Howard Stern Show.

"Colin, have you ever thought about pleasuring yourself clothes shopping with Henry Roll-ins? He was being deceptive!!"
