The MI6/CIA/INTERPOL finally collected Rizzy after one too many conspiracy theories, you read right - Rizzy is indeed missing on this episode (*lights candle*, *pours liquor*). Now we're not ones to speculate but let's just say the price of free speech is high; it always has been. But it's a price Rizzy was willing to pay. Now with that said - On this episode Ed, Spree & Omelly discuss whether it is better to be feared or loved by people, whether it be in business or intimate relationships, they touch on it all. They also discuss how they were disciplined by their parents (*spoiler alert* all of them have been smacked up and deservedly so!) and how they will approach discipline with their future kids.
