The final story comes from r/needadvice in 2020: a person found an injured pigeon, housed it until it healed, and then posted in confusion when it started flying around their home. The hosts' initial reaction — 'just open a window and let it go' — gets undercut by a second edit revealing the OP has muscular dystrophy and physically cannot open windows or retrieve fallen screens alone [1] — Shayne Topp "Someone nursed an injured pigeon back to health — and then panicked when it started flying around their house. The hosts can't stop laughin…" 48:17 . Damien acknowledges he hadn't considered this and uses it as a lesson in clear communication: context completely changes advice. The group also riffs on the real hazards of housing wild animals, with Damien sharing his personal bird mite infestation story that required full fumigation at 150°F. Ian notes that pigeons were originally domesticated by humans, which is why urban pigeons seem aimless. Shayne praises the OP for not having photos — it makes the story feel more authentic than staged wildlife rescue videos. The episode closes with Shayne issuing his power-scaling question as homework for viewers, Ian asking the internet to weigh in on how much a kindergartner weighs, and the hosts signing off with a warm 'see you next Saturday, enjoy your pancakes.'
A Reddit user stung by a bee near the abdomen developed a persistent erection that lasted over 18 hours before finally resolving on its own.
Damien noted that pigeons were originally domesticated by humans, which is why they linger on city streets seemingly aimless — they were never truly wild birds.
The pigeon post originally read as helpless — 'a bird is flying, what do I do?' But once the OP revealed they have muscular dystrophy and can't open windows alone, the whole story shifts. Damien argues this is a lesson in clear communication: context changes the advice entirely.
Damien speaks from hard experience: a bird nest outside his window led to a full bird mite infestation that required fumigating his home at 150°F. Good intentions toward wildlife come with real consequences, and the advice is unanimous — do not bring wild animals inside.
Damien shared from personal experience that a bird mite infestation in his home required full fumigation at 150°F, forcing him out of his living space entirely.
A broken pipe turned the Bad Friends studio into a hydrogen sulfide chamber. The crew denied smelling anything — which, as Andrew pointed out, makes their home lives deeply suspicious.
At a childhood sleepover in Sacramento, Bobby Lee's friends drew penises all over his face while he slept. He woke up, cried, and walked 7 miles down a dirt road before Eric Purvis's mom drove out to retrieve him.
On KSI's Make Me Laugh show, Bobby Lee got slapped so hard he fell and briefly blacked out — 5 minutes into the event. The rule was to use a tortilla, but the contestant used his bare hand instead.
What starts as a riff on Amber Alerts turns into an elaborate Speed remake: Bobby is a Hollywood tour guide whose bus shares a route with a kidnapper's identical bus, there's a bomb on board, and Keanu Reeves needs to be called immediately.
Their producer riffs a conspiracy theory about Lindsey Graham's death in Kyiv, which somehow leads to Bobby and Andrew discovering that every lyric of 'A Whole New World' from Aladdin secretly describes 9/11. They are disturbingly convincing.
Bobby Lee woke up Saturday morning to find three children splashing in his pool, along with a professionally hired swimming teacher — all arranged by friends who have keys to his house. His response: 'There's just too much joy here.'
Harold Ramis told a story about Caddyshack's cast doing drugs all day and night during Florida storm delays, with half their pay going to cocaine. Bobby Lee immediately wants to make that exact movie — and offers to relapse to do it.
Robby Hoffman had never heard of 'new towels.' A towel, in her world, was built with the house. When Sarah Silverman announced she'd bought new pool towels, it was a class-gap revelation.
Will Arnett pitched the perfect rich-person home for Robby: seven-hundred-thread-count sheets and brand-new towels — but a tiny, wrecked kitchen with a coil stove, chips, and Sprite. Best of both worlds.
