Due to an unexpected absence of co-host Paola and producer Jason, Patrick is forced to host this week's episode with an unruly band of international guest stars. Listen in as they preview this Sunday's big finale for the best wedding slacket, some guests get unexpectedly sentimental, and Heather eats her McDonald's takeout.
