The guys welcome comedian legend and actor John Mendoza to the Local Peasant in Woodland Hills! This episode starts with John's heroin days and never comes down from that rush. John tells wild stories of nearly getting shot at the comedy club, performing three dirty jokes for $50,000 on the "bitches' table," losing out on major sitcom roles, having contests to get high and go on stage, and so much more insanity. Kym Whitley returns to sit in and join the show! You will not believe your ears this week!

This is no joke. Or is it? You be the judge. Every Tuesday... actor Greg Grunberg (Heroes, Star Wars, Star Trek), stand-up comedian Kirk Fox (Parks and Rec, Rush Hour), and singer-songwriter Nick Marzock (American Dad, Valerian) walk into a bar and don't leave until they've got it all figured out.

This week we go into the vault to pull out this NEVER RELEASED and mildly offensive episode from July! The guys talk about Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, hot dog-eating contests, Chris Harrison inviting Nick to his 4th party and snuffing Greg (so Greg calls him on the air), Muhammad Ali eating chicken in his parked car, and Kirk helps to define what "Authentic Mexican" restaurants should be.
