Rusty gets called out for stealing Will’s underwear, Lauren’s mom phones in, and the boys discuss the etiquette of responding to text messages. The gang also catches up on Dry January and contemplates what makes a cool mechanic. Finally, Will and Rusty draft Weird Al songs that don’t exist and reveal their way-too-early 2026 Golden Globe predictions.
