momentFirst-billed Jay Griz fills in after two days of neglect
The live opening puts Jay Griz first beside Jason and Andy, calls the billing impressive, admits that Jay has been ignored for two days, and explains that Mike has been away with family until Monday. Direct video shows the full-size cardboard bear at Mike's microphone throughout, and Jason later identifies the silent third desk presence simply as a bear.
momentAl Borland escapes into lawless international waters
A bare Deucers Alley is blamed on Al's embarrassment, but the hosts say he is actually cruising with his wife and therefore vulnerable in international waters where cruise ships supposedly have no laws.
momentFootClan Friday buys Brian Lestico championship hardware
The weekly supporter drawing awards Brian Lestico a $100 FantasyChamps gift card for trophies, rings, or championship belts.
momentMegalodon shame threatens the germ-incubator turkey
The week's Faceoff loser must carry the shame into Megalodon. If turkey lands, Andy will force Jason back into the years-old turkey mask Jason once assigned him, now described as a germ incubator made worse by prior wear.
momentAndy independently snipes Jason's Tank Dell trade
Jason decides in his kitchen to stop negotiating cheaply and buy Tank Dell, opens Sleeper, cannot find the player, then discovers Andy independently completed the same trade earlier; Jason's anger arrives through capitalized Slack curses and a Boom Shakalaka cue.
momentIn-person Taylor Swift Andy terrifies Jason
Jason says viewers were gracious about Andy's Taylor Swift Halloween costume, but the in-person version was the most terrifying sight of his life; looking toward Andy made him fear for his safety and forget the episode while trying to deliver serious advice.
momentAndy finishes Fantasy Faceoff inside Chewbacca
After Jason finally places second, Andy spins 'Chew on This.' The Chewbacca costume permits only minimal sight and speech, looks and sounds stupid, traps heat like a greenhouse, and remains on Andy until the end of the show.
momentBrooks becomes absent Mike's lineup reader
Brooks answers a live prior-matchup check and then repeatedly reads Mike's submitted Fantasy Faceoff roster while Mike remains away with family.
summaryEpisode notes
The produced intro names the normal three hosts, but the live desk is Jay Griz, Jason, and Andy. Jay receives first billing and praise, immediately followed by the admission that he has been ignored for the previous two days. Mike is explicitly away with family until Monday, establishing Jay as his silent physical fill-in. At Fantasy Faceoff, Jason points out that there is a bear beside them, confirming the physical animal presence without the transcript itself using the word cardboard. Deucers Alley is also bare because Al Borland is away on a cruise with his wife; the hosts say international waters have no laws and joke that friends aboard can do anything they want to him. FootClan Friday gives Brian Lestico $100 for championship hardware. The coming Faceoff loser will serve a Megalodon-week shame, and Andy threatens to reuse Jason's old turkey mask—now imagined as a years-old germ incubator—if the wheel lands on turkey. A trade story shows Jason waking to capital-letter curse words in Slack after Andy independently acquires Tank Dell just before Jason decides to pay up, punctuated by a Boom Shakalaka cue. Brooks answers a live lookup and later serves as the voice reading absent Mike's submitted Fantasy Faceoff lineup. Andy's prior Taylor Swift Halloween costume returns when Jason says YouTube viewers were gracious but the in-person version was the most terrifying thing he had ever seen; glancing toward Andy made Jason fear for his life and forget the whole episode while trying to give analysis. Jason finally finishes second in Faceoff after ten weeks of only first or last. Andy loses, declines the FootClan's suggestion that Papa Josh absorb the punishment, spins 'Chew on This,' and wears a Chewbacca head that limits sight and speech, looks and sounds stupid, and creates a warm greenhouse effect until the close. Jay remains silent despite receiving top billing and a full-show physical host position.
