Just Say Yes!!
Edward T thinks too many people subscribe to the old Nancy Reagan solution to addiction, "Just Say No." He says forget about it, "Just Say Yes" to new experiences!
Hilary is wiped out and Edward T is beat as well, so the kids just mellow out and have a relaxed conversation.
Edward T's rage is disappearing - could it be gratitude? Nah. They pick up the feminism thread and discuss domestic violence by both sexes.
Edward T saw "Nickleodeon", which combined his two favorite film makers, Peter Bogdonavich and Burt Reynolds!
Hilary invited Edward T to her bowling party, and she always says "YES!" to doing things, and Edward T says this is what others need to be saying when asked to do things!
They discuss going out and Karaoke'ing, then they discuss Horoscopes.
Then the Media Minute from Episode 18 finds its way onto this episode, as the gang talked for way too long previously and it had to bumped back. A special guest appearance on the Media Minute by Danielle Bradford!

The 'F' Word: Feminism!
Hilary and Edward T welcome their in-studio guest, Danielle Bradford, a Seattle Pacific University Senior who comes to the show with some talk of the F word - Feminism! You can only imagine Edward T's first reaction to that...will he survive? Find out!
The kids not only talk about feminism, they also open the show with a humorous little sketch about "The Incredible Bulk". Later on in the show, Edward T challenges Danielle on her definition of the "P" word (Pussy), and she promptly gives him a schooling. This you've got to hear.
Then Hilary gives us a Science Minute about transgenetics - a true serendipitous moment considering the opening sketch. (The Media Minute gets moved to next week's episode because the gang talked so long!).
Enjoy!

You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry, Ms. Kemp!
The discussion continues! Hilary and Edward T continue their conversation on the feelings brought up around conflict. They get there when they stumble across Tiger Woods and talk about the nature of monogamous relationships, marriage and good 'ole infidelity. They discuss the evolving nature of human relationships and whether those situations can weather the change (pardon the pun).
Plus, Edward T conjures up a quick Media Minute off the top of his head, reintroducing (or introducing you for the first time) to Abbott and Costello's "Who's On First?" routine, one of the greatest comedy pieces ever.
Abbott and Costello's "Who's On First?" on YouTube:
"White Sport Coat, Pink Carnation" by Marty Robbins, 1957:
"Old Habits Die Hard: What research tells us about making changes in our behavior", by Christopher F Chabris, Wall Street Journal:

Don't Make Me Angry, Mr. Martin!
Hilary has parking lot problems, which make her angry. Edward T seconds that emotion.
This messed-up situation reminds Edward T of a situation on Match.com, which leads him to reveal that while searching on Match.com, he 'unselected' atheists while searching for a date.
Hilary is completely surprised by this and it leads to a discussion about beliefs, religion, getting along with other people and of course, Edward T's dating life - it's all about him after all (what's new?).
Enjoy!
