Jerry kicked things off with International Traffic Light Day, marking the 111th anniversary of Cleveland, Ohio's first electric traffic signal installed in 1914. Leave it to Jerry to drop this gem: "I once fell in love with a traffic light, but it was giving me mixed signals, so it didn't last long."

The holiday fun didn't stop there.

National Oyster Day had Jerry sharing insider tips – apparently Hog Island Sweetwater Oysters in San Francisco are the gold standard, but locals can get their fix with Whole Foods' "buck a shuck" Friday deals in Palm Desert.

National Underwear Day brought out Jerry's dad joke energy with his quip about "holy underwear" and getting pants in high school. "How else do you get your feet in?" he asked, referring to the two necessary holes. We see what you did there, Jerry!

Working Like a Dog

The segment perfectly tied together with Work Like a Dog Day, celebrating those who give 110%. This led naturally into Jerry's dog-themed pop quiz challenge.
