Original air date: July 25, 2019
Episode overview
Bingo puts himself on trial for uploading Danny's face to FaceApp, pleads silly, and receives a sentence requiring him to solicit five dollars from old contacts for a fabricated Magic: The Gathering booster need, culminating in an improvised Domino's sponsorship pitch. Nested inside Clown Court, Bingo must call old contacts until someone agrees to provide five dollars or five personal calls have been attempted; nobody agrees, and an additional Domino's sponsorship attempt also fails. The hosts identify their book club, recap Animal Farm as the prior selection, and announce As I Lay Dying as the next book. Chelsea asks whether giving cookies to new neighbors was creepy or could begin a friendship; the hosts discuss neighbor etiquette, conclude she did nothing wrong, request more context, and promise stickers.

Verified episode facts
- **Cleaning out your phone contacts result**: Bingo failed to secure five dollars. Jeff Jordache was the fifth personal-contact attempt, satisfying the challenge's stop condition without success; the additional improvised Domino's sponsorship attempt also failed. No winner or prize was awarded, and the claimed ten-dollar Magic tournament prize was only part of Bingo's fabricated phone premise.
