Episodes:

Ep. 1: The First Laugh (2006-06-11)

Stand-up star Dane Cook and three fellow comics--Jay Davis, Robert 'Bobby' Kelly and Gary Gulman--set out on a customized bus from Burbank, CA (destination: Boston, MA), on a 30-day, 20-gig, sold-out 'Tourgasm' of America.
Ep. 2: Working It Out (2006-06-18)

Outside Bozeman, Montana, on Day 5, the comedy posse saddles up at a dude ranch. Next stop is New Orleans (pre-Katrina), where Jay tests out a new joke at Tulane University, to decidedly mixed results.
Ep. 3: The United States of Insanity (2006-06-25)

'Dane's latest malady (a nasty cold), combined with a Madison Square Garden commitment, detours him from Chicago to New York. Multiple-medication therapy works wonders--but will Dane make it back to Central Michigan University in time for the gig?
Ep. 4: The Best of Times (2006-07-02)

Day 15. Dane and the guys arrive at Kent State for Tourgasm's first show without Gary, who is rumored to be in L.A. with his girlfriend. Despite his absence, and Bobby and Jay's bickering, the show is a killer, with Dane getting a standing ovation.
Ep. 5: Determined and Injured (2006-07-09)

Despite concerns about his leg, Bobby performs at Syracuse University. The tour then winds through NYC and Philadelphia, where a clueless van driver nearly causes the boys to miss a TV appearance. In Baltimore, Gary relives one of his worst moments.
Ep. 6: Competitively Speaking (2006-07-16)

In Charlottesville, VA, the boys compete in a game of paintball that ends with Dane crying foul play. Later, Dane's dizzy spell fuels speculation that the show will be cancelled, but Gary's 'perfect' set, and the crowd's support, pull him through.
Ep. 7: Beginning of the End (2006-07-23)

Before a gig at the University of Massachusetts, the boys unwind with a game of miniature golf. After the evening performance, the bus heads through Boston and on to Arlington High School, where Dane, a graduate, is hailed as a conquering hero.
Ep. 8: Back in the Day (2006-07-30)

With 'Tourgasm' in the can, Dane, Gary, Bobby and Jay turn back the clock to share details on how they started out, how they met, and how they overcame (in some cases) initial animosity to become true friends.
Ep. 9: Curtain Call (2006-08-04)

In the series finale, Dane and the boys take on a new adventure: Fighter Pilot for a Day school. It's terrifying--and nauseating--but reliving the tour afterward is hilarious, especially with highlights like Jay's porn-filled hotel bill!
