The episode opens with the hosts announcing a $1,000 giveaway for caller Alma de Leon from Hayward. They transition into sharing personal weekend activities: Ellen watched the movie 'Begonia', describing its unexpected dark turn, while Benny tried a vibration plate his wife bought, listing health benefits like improved circulation and bone density. Greg upgraded to an iPhone 17. The show includes the Big Money Minute trivia game with contestant Grace, who answers questions on math, spelling, and pop culture but misses the Super Bowl teams. A listener writes in for advice about her 17-year-old daughter wanting to get back with a cheating boyfriend; the hosts advise against forceful intervention and emphasize support. In the 'Dirty on the 30' news segment, they cover deadly shootings in Minneapolis, the San Francisco Zoo's viral t-shirt trend fueled by K-pop group TWICE, and the whimsy social media trend. Sports updates confirm the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks will face off in Super Bowl 60 at Levi's Stadium, with Charlie Puth performing the national anthem. Entertainment news includes Harry Styles accidentally attending the Pope's election, a Muppet Show 50th anniversary special, and a Super Mario Galaxy movie trailer. Another Big Money Minute features Tina from American Canyon, a bowler in two leagues, answering trivia questions. The 'Love Trap' segment catches James cheating on caller Kimberly by having him send roses to another woman named Lauren. Later, the hosts discuss Super Bowl 60 events in Santa Clara, including road closures and concerts by artists like Post Malone and Green Day. The episode concludes with a Soundcheck trivia game on past Oscar Best Picture winners like Titanic and Forrest Gump, where Greg wins.
