A comedian surprises the audience by hosting instead of Cameron and Rhea, joking about overhearing fans praise them.

The episode is a live comedy showcase hosted by Georgea Brooks, who opens with self-deprecating humor about replacing regular hosts Cameron and Rhea. She interacts with the audience, joking about topics like the new Ghostbusters movie, 2016 vs. 2017, and healthcare copays. The first comedian, Andy Erikson, performs a set that includes jokes about growing up in a trailer park, texting mishaps, and how she met her husband through a fake podcast invitation. She also shares personal insights about having Marfan syndrome, using humor to raise awareness. Curtis Cook follows with material centered on race, starting with anecdotes from an all-white childhood, including a field trip to a Civil War reenactment where he was told he'd be 'Canadian' if fast. He discusses his first office job at a bank, where he lies on his resume and navigates racial tensions with white coworkers and a security guard. His set includes a story about watching a civil rights documentary with his girlfriend, leading to reflections on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and carrying books for safety. Blake Wexler's set focuses on alcoholism, including taking Midol for hangovers and childhood stuffed animals, culminating in a bizarre story about a Batman-themed fan at a Halloween football game. Jessica Sele closes with jokes about Tinder, including a hookup with a single dad and giving a bad blow job to teach a cheater a lesson, and discusses her bisexuality. The episode ends with an ad for the podcast 'Hello from the Magic Tavern'.
