Pass It Down

Ep. 38: Charissa Thompson & Jeff Darlington (Part 2: YOU HEARD ME)

Episode Summary

Since becoming a Power Trio 10 years ago in the leadup to Super Bowl XLV, Charissa (now a FOX host), Jeff (an ESPN reporter) and Mike have been inseparable--and insufferable--at big events across the country. Deprived of the chance to co-host their annual Super Bowl party, these three amigos do the next-best thing, treating Natalie, and all of you, to a slice of their twisted, semi-synchronized sensibilities, in all their revved-up splendor. Yes, it’s a lot. Just trust us.

Episode Notes

Beginning with Mike and Charissa’s origin story (featuring mimosas and a double entendre-drenched show pitch), and ending with Mike and Jeff’s (featuring the Crown Jewels and a saucy Soho club), Natalie is bombarded with a fast and furious barrage of true confessions. We learn about Jeff’s ill-fated fraternity Hall of Fame acceptance speech, the woman who wanted to throw down with Charissa in a Miami Beach bar, the actress who scolded her during a red-carpet interview for Extra… actually, this whole episode is extra. You heard me.
