This week, your hosts are talking about legal and illegal age-gap couples. Kelli and Troy start with Patrick Dempsey's marriage to Rochelle "Rocky" Parker followed by Jerry and his high school girlfriend, ending with Anthony Kiedis and his relationships with teenagers. (Yes, that's multiple teenage girls for Anthony Kiedis). People Magazine gave one of these couples a cushy cover story, but your hosts won't be so easy on them.
