Jon starts off the show by going right into the news in Washington. He shows President Bush scaring people about the Bird Flu, but ends up confusing Jon in the process.

For more on the Bird Flu Pandemic, Jon turns it over to Rob Corddry for his “Health Scare” segment, which explores the problem and where it began. Rob suggests that if you get the Bird Flu, give it back to a bird by making out with one.

Back from a commercial, Jon introduces a segment on gay marriage, specifically in Massachusetts. Despite one man’s claims, Ed isn’t able to actually find any problems gay marriage has caused. He even brought out his gaydar, “Homometer 2000″ to find anything gay in the city, but Ed thinks it’s broken.

Returning from commercial, Jon welcomes tonight’s guest, former independent council, Robert Ray, who offers his opinion on the current Valerie Plame CIA Leak investigation.

Rob’s “Health Scare” segment was hilarious, as was Ed’s piece on gay marriage. It was a pretty good episode, but I walked away, sort of feeling that I needed more from that interview.
