Plus, a 3,000-year-old lost city in Egypt and another round of our favorite game, "Half Full/Half Empty."

Guest host Scott Tong brought a truly wild story to this grab-bag Friday episode.

We’ll talk about it, some other weird trade secrets and, oh yeah, a 3,000-year-old lost city in Egypt. Plus, another round of our favorite game, “Half Full/Half Empty.”
