Ep 5 Lie Lie Again Bonus: Molly’s Last Meal
Molly says that she knows what she’d have for her last meal. Is she telling the truth? Look, we don’t have lie detectors, so we can’t say for sure. We’re way too broke for that. In this case, all we have is our keen intuition… which, honestly, kinda blows when it comes to figuring out if Molly is lying or not. Can you spot her “tells”?
Music Theory to Our Ears
Two things were abundantly clear when we had CarlaRose Dubois on as a substitute professor. The first is that she is clearly a fan favorite. The second is that she is clearly a faculty favorite as well. We thought that it wasn’t fair that she had to take over another person’s segment.
Ep 5 After Hours Bonus: Sex With Me
That's right, we cherry-pick some topics in this one. Why? because we're funny and smart. Besides, the Balderdash Randomizer landed on Sex With Me. We had to focus on how we relate Sex with Me to everything from tomatoes and French Cooking to Lloyd Bridges and Jaws 2.

Ep 5, Pt 1: Four Questions with Dr Hal Cohen
Quality sweat. What the heck does that even mean? I have no idea, but it comes up in this episode. It could be a detailed discussion into the intricacies of perspiration, could be an off-hand joke made by a member of the faculty, could be a medical issue from Dr. Hal Cohen. Which one will it be? I’m not telling. Watch the episode to find out. It’s why I spend my Saturday writing these things.
