Pig farmer Dunch Baggins has a wild accusation as to what has happened to his missing wife. But with a real Sigmund Fraud like Ian Herrin for a therapist, will Dunch even be able to get to his theory, or will he be forced to hear full recaps of a Ron White standup bit?? Maybe if Ian wasn't so comedy obsessed he'd realize Dunch needs actual help and not the latest gossip on Hasan Minhaj's exaggerations. As is, the reveal as to what's really going on with Dunch's podcast is WAY crazy and takes WAY too long to get to and was probably worth unpacking the whole time Ian was yet again going off on tangents!!
