Rich: You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show.
Doug: Well, this could get interesting. You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show. Shawn, we start with you. Give away a letter you do not want.
Shawn: Give him a Q.
Doug: And there's no Q. Take a letter.
Shawn: I'll take an E.
Doug: There's just the one...
Doug: ...and it's the last letter in the answer. You need this to stay in business. To tie the score, you hear this on Howard Stern's radio show.
Shawn: Pass.
Doug: All right. Control goes over to Will.
Will: Wow, I have no idea so far, but I'm going to change it up a little and give away an X.
Doug: There's no X. What letter will you take?
Will: I'll take an S.
Doug: No S. And that means the ball's back in Shawn's court.
Shawn: I'll give the Z.
Doug: Z's a good letter to give away. Now take one.
Shawn: I'll go with an O.
Doug: No O, unfortunately. Will, we're back to you.
Will: Hmmm -- I think I will try giving away a J.
Doug: Good try. No J in the answer. Take one now.
Will: I'll take a T.
Doug: No T, either. (a few groans from the crowd) Let's stop and think what we know about this definition. You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show. We know there's an E in there. Ironically, Howard hosted a talk show on E! -- but we're talking about the radio show. So, Shawn, we're back to you.
Shawn: I will give him a V.
Doug: V's a good call. Take one you think will help.
Shawn: I'll take an R.

Doug: No R. (more groans) We've got just over half the alphabet in play here. So, the round gets a bit tricky. Will, it's back to you.
Will: Wow, that's what I would have taken. I think I will try to give away a Y.
Doug: Ya know...
(ding) (a few woos from the crowd)
Doug: ...at the rate we've been going, this was bound to happen. Shawn, he gave you the Y, which is the last letter of the first word. You have the last letter in each word now. Do you have the answer to tie the game? You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show.
Shawn: Nothing yet.
Doug: OK, that was a free turn -- so please go ahead and give away a letter to Will.
Shawn: I'll give him a K.
Doug: There's no K. Take one now.
Shawn: I'll take an A.
Doug: First multiple this round.
Doug: Three A's. One A's in the first word -- the others are in the second word. This is for CY$750 and a tie game. You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show.
Shawn: Is it Daily Language?
Doug: Incorrect. Will, it's back to you.
Will: Compliments to the producer, this one's tough!
Doug: Please, don't give D.J. a bigger ego than she has already. (light laughter from the crowd) Give a letter away you don't want.
Will: OK, I will give away -- I hope -- a W.
Doug: The hope of no W...
(ding) (mixed reactions from the crowd)
Doug: ...was not answered. Shawn, this is your third consecutive try for the tie score. You hear this on Howard Stern's radio show.
Shawn: Could it be Bawdy Language?
Doug: It could be -- and it is.
Doug: Well, I said this round could get interesting -- based on the subject matter of the definition. Turns out the round got interesting based on content of the answer. Look at that, a Y, W and U in the answer.

Doug: Score's tied at 750, Will looks like he'll be using bawdy language of his own -- so let's take a break.
(a few chuckles from the audience) (audience applause)
