  • Josh Thomas, a homosexual, had decided to expose the Fridge Logic in the Phelps Family's extreme homophobic beliefs by asking Megan Phelps why God would create gay people if he hated them so much, via Twitter. Doubles as a Funny Moment.
    Josh:: She said, 'God filled some people with mercy for him to love and he filled others with hate, for him to kill.'
    Claire: But wait, she's the one who's full of hate so...
    Mikey: Claire, she's a whackjob.
  • The Political Mastermind game. First for Mikey, as his score basically cemented his Bunny-Ears Lawyer status (as commented on the main page)... and second for the whole show. Claire refused to play when her turn came around, saying she'd rather call in '(her) friend Kevin' - Kevin Rudd, the fucking Prime Minister of Australia. (At the time, that is.)
  • Guest Marc Maron, an American, wants to know what the Vegemite song is. The entire Australian audience sings it in response. Fellow American guest Reginald D Hunter is completely stunned.
    Paul: We're an army! An army forged by Vegemite!
    Mikey: We sung that at Gallipoli and we scared the shit out of the Turks!
    Claire: We don't even remember our own anthem!
    Reginald: Oh my god, man, what the fuck just happened here?! I feel like Sigourney Weaver in Aliens 2 when she realizes she's in a room filled with hatching eggs!
  • For the season 10 finale, Claire's half of Strange But True had Paul performing 'Tusk', initially alongside a keyboard player and a trumpeter. Mikey gave him shit for only having two musicians when the video had a marching band, so naturally, the second performance had a marching band, confetti cannons, and Paul going full ham on the chorus.
