Crews Control

Grant gets sticky feet and discovers a new allergy, Leo shows off his love for Grant in his own special way and signs off on a gorilla, and Dorsch wants his job back. Then, Development Executive for a major network Gil Kingsling (Ryan Gaul) stops by the Crew's Nest to sift some clams, and by that we mean listen to pitches for the network. We're pretty sure he ended up at J.A.M.P. by mistake but hey, we'll take it! Not wanting to miss out on the chance for fame, the crew masterfully throws together the pitch of the century.

If you were ever curious about what would happen if Grant managed the company budget then this is the episode for you! This episode is also for you if you are a fan of Leo's line of unwearable shoes, the origin and meaning of Dorsch's name, Hooters' salad bars, and father-son underwear. Later on, but not much later, the Nest gets an early visit from none other than Arizona's self titled "sexterminator" Harry Russel (Bill Fryer). Harry hired J.A.M.P. to run a very avant garde ad campaign for his exterminator business, and trust us when we say these ads make perfect sense.

Grant shows off what he has learned from taking popularity classes, Dorsch is such a Zoe, and Leo recalls just how he ended up in a coma and let's just say it involves a carnival caravan. Later, Miranda Kosgrove with a K (Sam Carty) gets blown into the nest where she talks about her role as Hair and Makeup Stylist on the serialized film I.T. Girls. Please excuse Grant's stuffy nose, he is sorry. *sniff*

Big changes are announced! You'll never believe what happened at JAMP! Leo vindicates Grant, Dorsch's soul gets saved, and Grant mixes up the meaning of the word ass in a pretty big way. Later on Hymnal Director of the lottery-scheme Christian film Heaven's Hope, Veronica Grant (Bianca Carrasco) stops by to talk religion. She didn't want this to get out but let's just say, Veronica has ties to all sorts of religions. She also sings a biblical classic and boy does it slap.

Dorsch talks about his profitable new trampoline based charity, Grant brags about hand props, Leo takes a walk in a poor person's shoes, and Christoff teases a big company announcement. Joining the Crew in the nest this week is world renowned dialect coach Kelly Vorelli (Marielle O'Malley). Kelly takes the Crew on an alcoholic accent adventure and then runs some roleplay sessions showing off just what she is capable of.

Oh My God! Grant attempts to retake control of the introductions but experiences what can only be described as a short circuit. Dorsch and Leo continue to conspire against Grant by seeing just how far they can push his ability to segue. Later on Actor Social Order Supervisor Oswald "Ozzy" Packinack (Ben Cohen) climbs into the Crews Nest to talk about his role on the set of Oh My God!. Someone has to keep actors in their societal and hierarchical place and apparently that's the job description! We also talk about the documentary series Men In Black, and the dark side of SAG.

We know you were all excited for Dame Judi Dench this week but a company-wide evacuation notice due to one of Leo's Instagram posts means that there is no guest this week! So, the Crew takes a break from talking about work and instead turns their attention to Leo's continuing rivalry with the Mandarin. Also, Grant breaks an NDA when he lets Dorsch and Leo in on what he has been up to in his spare time.

Leo follows up on last week's vague apology while introducing his own personal MCU level nemesis, Grant offers up what may be too many puppy dog eyes, and Dorsch tries his hand at the intro and outro. Later, we chat with Caterer Casey McCarthy (Sam Goldberg) about his work on Judd Apatow's magnum opus "Beneath The Cabinet". Casey tells us about his time growing up in Africa, being saved by a group of lawyers that definitely do not qualify as a cult, and the thankless job of feeding lettuce to Emma Stone.

The Crew reads this week's letter from Christoff aloud. You won't believe what he has to say! Everyone has something to get off their chest. 24 minutes later, Animal Wrangler Tim Lamp (Dan Hirshfield) climbs into the nest to answer questions ranging from small to, you guessed it, BIG! We also reminisce over the very first episode we never released and its legendary guest. This episode is sponsored by Sauce Towel. "Kazaam, Sauce Is Gone"

Grant offers to take Christoff out for lunch on Leo's dime, Leo unveils "gas station sheik", and Dorsch tests Grant's blind acceptance of everything by feeding him garbage. Later on, famed Actor/Janitor/Spy/Baseball Player Bill Lee (Ryan Snodgrass) drops by to talk shop. To be honest though, the Crew really just uses him to clean the Nest. Other topics include Spirit Airline's dogfights, lawyers with long range weapons, and surprising gas station amenities.
