Opening Video

Brian plays the commercial for his (fake) Brian Brushwood Action Figure.

Introducing the Show

The show introduction was very similar to the introduction to the BBLiveShow, stating how unprofessional it is and how there may be swearing.

They also introduced their guests, Leo Laporte and Alex Albrecht. For much of the episode, Leo was WAY too close to the camera, causing him to be compared to the Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man.
