Love is in the air in this week’s special Valentine’s Day episode, as lucky bachelorette Jen Vaughn picks between Chris, Matt and third chair David Wolkin in our very own version of the Dating Game! Romance and awkwardness abound. We also graciously thank the surprisingly large group of donors from the first days of our War Rocket Ajax pledge drive, and beg for more money. Also: Find out the disaster that was Matt’s Jeopardy! online test!

What an odd show this week.
Thank you for using my question. This episode kinda lapped Bag of Salt when it came to being weirdly awkward, didn’t it?
This is definitely up there in terms of favorite episodes.
Man, Chris, Jen, and Matt were all really funny.
And David made them seem even funnier.
This episode kinda lapped Bag of Salt when it came to being weirdly awkward, didn’t it?
No kidding. I can’t decide if I want Jen on every show or whether she should get a Lifetime Ban.
You’ve all succeeded: I want to go on a date with Jen.
(Confidential to Matt – if you love diner food, you are in the right city. I’ve never since had the like of Chicago’s diner culture. Go to the Golden Angel (not Nugget!) at Lincoln and Montrose, which has an inexplicable golden-nugget-shaped sign.)
