Buckle up for a wild ride as the family faces off in an "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" quiz that quickly turns into a humbling experience for the adults. Young Brayden emerges as the unexpected intellectual champion, confidently answering questions about geography, mathematics, and history while Amanda and Jams struggle to keep up. The competitive spirit runs high as Brayden ultimately triumphs with an impressive 26 points, correctly identifying March as the month named for the Roman god of war.
The laughter continues during "Dating Profiles with Denny Broens," where three bachelor profiles reveal the strange world of online dating. From Jamie's poetic sensibilities and claims of surviving "two gunpoint robberies," to Mark's proud declaration that he can "cook, clean, do laundry and support himself," each profile offers a window into the often bizarre landscape of modern romance. The hosts analyze and debate which potential match would be least catastrophic, with Jams ultimately crowned the best "man picker" of the season.
Things get deeply personal during the relationship advice segment, where the family tackles thorny issues including alcoholic verbal abuse, sexual incompatibility in marriage, and a woman devastated that her husband touched a stripper's breasts during a Vegas bachelor party. Their unfiltered responses—ranging from compassionate to brutally honest—reflect their unique perspectives on loyalty, communication, and relationship boundaries.
The episode reaches its comedic peak when Amanda shares a story about their daughter Isabel choosing to defecate outside near Denny's newly hung hammock rather than using one of their "three goddamn bathrooms," then attempting to hide the evidence by smashing it with her Crocs. This moment of parental exasperation and disbelief perfectly captures the unscripted, authentic family dynamic that keeps listeners coming back.
