Broden's Chair Was Firebombed
Summary
Broden explains that his chair was destroyed in a mysterious fire at the Aunty Donna studio, which he claims was an act of God or the devil. The hosts debate the scientific connection between laughing and hiccups while Broden struggles to clarify a visual gag. They also discuss the Spice World movie and the etymology of words like "isolation" and "crescendo." The episode concludes with a teaser for a future crossover featuring an Irish priest to investigate the chair fire.
