#449 My Meloni Has A First Name
After Vieves introduced actor and beloved zaddy Christopher Meloni into evidence last week, Andrew makes good on his threat to produce a “Meloni or Bologna” show that leaves very little of Meloni’s bologna to the imagination. Plus, the Queen of Soul shills for hotdogs, and Jennifer Garner is no Tom Hanks.

#447 What Fresh Bell Is This?
Vieves takes over with a slate of “in the wild” ads she’s been seeing with a weirdly high concentration of English accents. Plus, Taco Bell tries to change their rep, and Andrew is NOT having it. And an Ad Councilor does their own admonishing and adcollating.

#444 Boss Prevention
