The episode asks what happens when Jennifer Carss, described as a speaking clock, is put on the show to answer listener questions. 4. Tiernan jokes about Time Magazine naming the 'second best speaking clock of 2025' and Jennifer’s job changing modes. 5.

The two build a business idea called 'time for lasagna,' with Jennifer’s face on cheese and time messages baked into the product. 10. Jennifer says she is tormented by a nursery rhyme with a mouse and worries about getting a grip on handle barna. 11. Tiernan asks whether calling something 'handle barna' is safe in a family show, and Jennifer answers with a long warning about slippy stairs, jam, and gripping the bannister. 12. Jennifer’s clock hands become stuck together during the exchange, and Tiernan describes the moment as tense. 13. Jennifer answers the toast-or-language question by choosing a slice of toast for a head. 14.
