Eric Is The Brian Ferentz Of Thanksgiving!

Clare and Eric are headed back to court for 'Jury in a Hurry.' Their disagreement this week has to do with the Thanksgiving potluck and how do you set the menu. Does the host assign you a dish or do guests bring what they want? Eric says the host assigns a dish—that way there’s no duplicating side dishes. Clare says she’s a guest and she’s going to bring what she wants…because she’s the guest. What say you? Deliver your verdict!

Olives Of Death: Eric And Clare Nearly Combust!

Belly up to the bar for 'Taste It Tuesday!' Clare and Eric went in on a bar auction item for the American Heart Association. They split up all of the items, but there were a few...leftovers. But as we know, you can't say you don't like something without trying it first! Today they'll sample spicy pretzels, non-alcoholic gin, and pickled asparagus. Mmm...
