Chapter 2: How does the Therapy Gecko help people with their problems?
That is not the look of an innocent man. Is everyone lying to me about who they are? I felt such desperation. I felt it was what I had to do. Listen to Deep Cover, The Family Man on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Who here is excited for summer movies? Oh, I am. I can't wait for Supergirl to come out. Oh, and that alien one that Spielberg is doing.
That one looks so cool. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Yeah, obviously those are big. What's the buzz one? Toy Story 5? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Buzz about Buzz. Oh, yeah. Jeff, contain your excitement. Yeah. But then you also have the live-action Moana that's coming out, the newest installment of Minions and Monsters, my personal favorite, Shrek 5, Far, Far Away from Pants. What?
Are you just really into an animated summer for yourself, I see? The Shrek movies are great. They're legit. But there is one movie that's already causing major controversy, and Brooke already brought it up. What? The new Supergirl. Yes! Yes! Superman was so good. It was such a good film. It got great ratings. Yeah, and it totally set us up for Supergirl.
Supergirl hits theaters on the 26th of this month, but people online think they've already spotted a major flaw in the film. Have you seen this, Brooke? They say Supergirl is supposed to have impervious, bulletproof skin, so how in the world could she get pierced ears? She has a bunch of piercings in her ears if you've seen the trailers. Yes. And what does the director say?
His answer is, well, she was raised on a chunk of Krypton far away from the sun, so she didn't even experience superpowers until her teens. Oh, that's a good point. So maybe she got them in like seventh grade, like right before. Yeah, she went to the mall on Krypton and went into Claire's, got her ears pierced, got a free Krypton scrunchie, and then got superpowers the next week.

Chapter 3: What strange criminal alliance is explored in this episode?
That makes sense. And I even heard that the Claire's on Krypton is struggling. Oh, yeah. They needed the business. So there, haters, are you happy now? It's explained away. Text in 78592. Tell us which summer film you're the most excited to see. Now, let's get into some real entertainment. The one where you don't have to pay for because Digital Jake is taking over.
And he's got piercings in places that also haven't seen Earth's sunlight for the shock collar question of the day. Let's do it. Well, yesterday at this time, we celebrated National Bed Bug Day by quizzing you on famous beds from pop culture. And that's when our very own Alexis Fuller realized the princess and the pea not only rhymes with 30, but 20. That's right.
So many revelations about beds and sleepy things. We even learned that Freddy Krueger is the horror villain who haunts your bed in your sleep. And that's the perfect transition into a terrifying sequel of No Bugs, Just Beds edition of...
plenty of 20 it's back you guys i thought popular beds i thought we had covered them no all right we're not a blanket we don't cover all the beds all right this time there's no pop culture questions you won't have to try to remember who simba slept with in his bed on pride rock i think it's gonna be the top 20 best brands of beds no Just like I said, no bugs, just beds.
And we're going to start with the woman who thought a California king made your room sunnier. That's Alexis. I still don't get what we're doing today. It's beds. No bugs. It's very simple. Seven. Number seven. Alexa's parents have been telling kids not to jump off the top bunk for generations.

Chapter 4: What recent sports controversy is highlighted?
In 2011, builders in Germany created the world's tallest bunk bed just to see how high they could go. How tall was it? Was it 18 feet, 35 feet, or 52 feet tall? Five stories? Oh, that'd be so cool if you had an elevator that went up to your top bunk of your bed and you had to climb it. Don't you just get exhausted by bed number 15? Yeah.
Is it still two bunks, two beds, or is it like a million beds lining up to the 50th floor, you know what I mean? I wonder. It feels like a vertical sorority sleeping room. You should be so tired by the time you get to the top that you can sleep really bad. You would have to sleep it off. But I'm going to go with the lowest one. I'm going to say 18. 18 feet tall. No way. 52. No way.
Five-story bunk bed. Where would you put that? Imagine rolling off of that. All right, Alexa's got hers wrong. Brooke, it's your turn. Seven's off the board. One? Brooke, I heard you're good at trivia. This one should be easy for you. Oh, I picked one, too. Yeah, the waterbed was invented in which decade? Was it the 50s, the 60s, or the 70s? Oh, my God. I'm talking 1900s here.
Dude, in the 80s, my parents had a waterbed. I bet. My parents had one when I was a kid. I had a family friend who had one.
Chapter 5: What are the secrets behind family dynamics discussed here?
I thought it was mind-blowing. Does that mean you were conceived on a waterbed? I bet there was no bed involved during my conception. Sorry I asked. But I feel like the 60s, I mean, that's like the beginning of the revolution, right? What revolution? The very hot one. But I feel like maybe the beds didn't catch up to the movement until the 70s. Give me 70s for waterbeds. I'll give it to you.
I can't give you the point, though. The waterbed was invented in 1968 by a design student named Charles Hall as a college project. He wanted to create a more comfortable mattress than foam and spring beds people were sleeping on at the time. And that makes sense, though. Like three, four years, then it boomed in the 70s. I wonder how things were for him in college. Probably pretty good.
Can you imagine being the only guy in the world with a water mat? All right, we're 0 for 2. We're doing No Bugs, Just Beds again. I'm so excited. Jose, it's your turn. One in seven have been chosen. Let's go 12. What percentage of Americans admit they eat in bed? It's a 22%. 38% or 52%? Wow. It starts at 22. So many people.
Chapter 6: Which summer movies are generating buzz and controversy?
Got to be high. I've done breakfast in bed, and it always sounds so good. And then I'll, like, order it.
Yeah.
And then I'll, like, or I'll make it. And then I have to go back into bed, right? And then afterwards, the cleanup. So I don't do it as often, but it sounds so nice if someone could just deliver it. I feel like I only do it once a year on Mother's Day. Yeah, but it just gets delivered to you, right? So that's 50%. Alexis, do you eat in bed? Yeah, I do. Okay. Does one year count? No. No comment.
All right. I'm going to go the middle, 38%. Jose went for the middle answer. I'm sorry. We're at the top, 52%. Wow. More than half of Americans snack in beds, which explains why every mattress contains enough crumbs to feed a family of pigeons. Ew. We're 0 for 3 and no bugs, just beds. And Jeffrey, we're over to you. Number five.
Pajamas come in every color imaginable, but one shade in particular outsells all the others. What's the most common color of pajamas sold? Is it blue, red, or gray? I feel like if this question was for Brooke, she would go off for 10 minutes about how great it is to sleep in the nude. I mean, I do love a good nude sleep. I'm not going to lie.
Pajamas are not where it's at, but I have quite a few pairs. Well, who are the people that purchase pajamas? It's because the kids don't buy them. The adults have to buy them. My parents, yeah. And when I picture pajamas now, all I see are families on Christmas morning all gathered together, 30 people wearing the same exact one. I'm imagining cute skim sets. Yeah, me too. I don't see those.
I don't even know what that is. That's not in my algorithm. I'm going with family Christmas morning and everyone's wearing red pajamas. Wearing red? You'll be seeing red. That's incorrect. Blue is the answer. Since the 1970s, blue has been the most popular pajama color. Maybe it's soothing. I have a blue pair. And that means everyone has lost today's edition of Plenty of Twenties.
Wait, does that mean we get to go back to bed? I think we get to go back to bed after we're all collectively shocked together while singing Mr. Sandman by the Cordettes. I'm sure Alexis knows this song. Alexis, you lead us. I'll start us. Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream. Bum, bum, bum, bum. Thank you. Thanks, Mr. Sandman.
I was hitting the bum bum so good. We're just getting into it. That was your shot caller question of the day. Phone tap's coming up in just a few minutes.
