In the wild and unpredictable world of late-night television, where sharp satire and quick wit are the name of the game, Greg Gutfeld, the host of Fox News’ Gutfeld!, thought he’d seen it all. But nothing could have prepared him for the moment his longtime co-panelist, the towering Tyrus, dramatically collapsed on set, sending Gutfeld into a spiral of panic—only for it to be revealed as a cheeky prank to celebrate the birth of Gutfeld’s daughter, Mira. As if that weren’t enough to keep the audience in stitches, the episode took a turn for the absurd with a “Learning to Be a Dad” segment, where the male guests hilariously fumbled their way through making baby formula and changing diapers on a model baby. Packed with side-splitting mishaps, unexpected twists, and a whole lot of heart, this episode of Gutfeld! has fans doubled over with laughter and proves that fatherhood can turn even the toughest guys into comedic gold.

Greg Gutfeld has been a staple on Fox News for years, known for his biting humor as the host of Gutfeld!, a late-night comedy talk show that mixes political satire with pop culture commentary, and as a co-host on The Five, the network’s top-rated political talk show. At 60 years old, Gutfeld has built a reputation for his irreverent takes, often joined by regular panelists like Kat Timpf, a libertarian comedian with a knack for dry humor, and Tyrus, a former professional wrestler turned Fox News personality whose 6-foot-8-inch, 365-pound frame makes him an imposing yet hilarious presence. Gutfeld’s life took a joyful turn recently when he and his wife, Elena Moussa, welcomed their first child, a daughter named Mira. The announcement came during a segment of The Five, where co-host Dana Perino shared Gutfeld’s statement: “It is with great joy that my wife Elena and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs.” Gutfeld took a paternity leave to bond with his daughter, returning to the airwaves with tales of fatherhood that set the stage for one of the most unforgettable episodes of Gutfeld! yet.

The episode kicked off like any other, with Gutfeld delivering his opening monologue, roasting the latest political blunders and cultural oddities with his signature smirk. Tyrus sat in his usual spot, ready to drop his no-nonsense quips, alongside Kat Timpf and guest panelist Jamie Lissow, a comedian known for his stand-up flair. The audience was settled in for a night of laughs, expecting the usual banter, when Tyrus decided to pull off a stunt that would leave everyone—especially Gutfeld—reeling. In the middle of Gutfeld’s monologue, as he was poking fun at a politician’s latest faux pas, Tyrus let out a theatrical groan, clutched his chest, and toppled out of his chair, crashing to the floor with a thud that could’ve rattled the studio walls. The audience gasped, and Gutfeld’s jaw dropped, his eyes wide with shock. “Tyrus! Oh my gosh, Tyrus!” he shouted, leaping from his chair and rushing to his friend’s side, his voice a mix of terror and confusion.

Kat Timpf froze, her hands flying to her face, while Jamie Lissow jumped up, yelling, “We need a doctor in here!” The studio erupted into chaos, with producers scrambling in the background and the audience murmuring in concern. For a split second, it looked like a genuine emergency—until Tyrus popped up, a mischievous grin plastered across his face, and bellowed, “Gotcha, Greg! Congrats on baby Mira!” The audience burst into laughter, and Gutfeld, still catching his breath, slumped back into his chair, clutching his chest in mock exhaustion. “You nearly killed me, you giant oaf!” he exclaimed, pointing a shaky finger at Tyrus, who was now cackling so hard he could barely stay upright. Kat Timpf, wiping tears of laughter from her eyes, added, “I thought we were about to lose half the panel—and I’d have to carry the whole show!” Tyrus explained that the prank was his way of celebrating Gutfeld’s new role as a dad, a playful nod to the sleepless nights and chaos that come with a newborn. “If you can handle Mira’s lungs, you can handle a little scare,” Tyrus quipped, earning a playful eye-roll from Gutfeld and a thunderous applause from the crowd.

The prank alone would’ve made the episode legendary, but Gutfeld decided to keep the fatherhood theme rolling with a special segment called “Learning to Be a Dad,” where Tyrus and Jamie Lissow would compete in a series of baby-care challenges to see who could master the art of parenting—or at least survive it. “I’m a new dad, so I thought it’d be fun to see if these guys can handle the real stuff,” Gutfeld said with a sly grin, gesturing to a table decked out with baby supplies: diapers, wipes, bottles, a can of formula, and a model baby that looked ready to “cry” at the slightest provocation. The audience cheered, eager to see the tough-guy wrestler and the quick-witted comedian tackle the tasks ahead.

The first challenge was making a bottle of formula, a task that sounds simple but quickly turned into a comedic disaster. Gutfeld handed Tyrus and Jamie each a bottle, a can of formula, and a measuring scoop, giving them one minute to mix the perfect bottle without making a mess. Tyrus, looming over the table like a giant, stared at the tiny scoop with confusion, muttering, “I’ve pinned 300-pound guys easier than this.” Jamie, trying to play it cool, cracked a joke: “I’ve got this—I watched a TikTok tutorial once.” But as soon as the timer started, all hell broke loose. Tyrus fumbled the can, dumping a mountain of formula powder onto the table, creating a cloud that made him sneeze so loudly the model baby “cried” in response. Jamie, meanwhile, managed to get the powder into the bottle but forgot to add water, proudly holding up a bottle of pure powder and declaring, “Nailed it!” Gutfeld, doubled over with laughter, shook his head. “Jamie, that’s not a bottle—that’s a protein shake for ants!”

Kat Timpf stepped in to judge, holding up Tyrus’ bottle—which now had formula caked on the outside—and Jamie’s powdery disaster. “I’m giving this round to… absolutely no one,” she announced, tossing both bottles into a bin labeled “Dad Fails.” The audience roared as Gutfeld added, “If Mira saw this, she’d be calling for Elena already!” The segment was off to a hilarious start, but the real chaos came with the diaper-changing challenge. Gutfeld brought out two model babies, each dressed in a tiny onesie with a suspiciously wet diaper, and explained the rules: change the diaper in under 30 seconds without making a mess. Tyrus, determined to redeem himself, grabbed the doll with the confidence of a wrestler entering the ring, but his massive hands struggled with the tiny diaper tabs, accidentally ripping the diaper in half. “This thing’s broken!” he bellowed, holding up the shredded diaper as the audience howled.

Jamie, on the other hand, managed to get the diaper off but put the new one on backwards, leaving the doll’s plastic bottom exposed. “It’s a fashion statement!” he protested, striking a pose with the doll like it was walking a runway. The audience was in stitches, but the highlight came when the model baby Tyrus was working on suddenly squirted water—simulating a real baby’s “accident”—right into his face. Tyrus froze, water dripping down his chin, before letting out a booming laugh that shook the studio. “That’s what I get for pranking you, Greg!” he said, wiping his face with a wipe meant for the doll. Gutfeld, barely able to speak through his laughter, declared, “I think Mira just got her revenge!” Kat Timpf awarded the “Best Dad” title to the doll for “surviving these two clowns,” while Tyrus and Jamie collapsed into their chairs, covered in formula powder and water, vowing to leave the real baby duties to Gutfeld.

To cap off the segment, Gutfeld decided to add one final challenge: a lullaby sing-off to “soothe” the model babies. Tyrus, still dripping from his water mishap, opted for a surprisingly tender rendition of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” but his deep, gravelly voice made it sound more like a wrestling promo than a lullaby, sending the audience into hysterics. Jamie, not to be outdone, went for “Sweet Child O’ Mine” by Guns N’ Roses, complete with air guitar riffs and a high-pitched falsetto that had Kat Timpf covering her ears and shouting, “That’s not soothing—that’s a wake-up call!” Gutfeld, shaking his head, ended the segment by cradling the model baby and humming a soft tune, proving that he might just have the dad skills after all—or at least better ones than his co-panelists.

The episode was a perfect blend of humor and heart, a celebration of Gutfeld’s new journey as a father that struck a chord with fans. Tyrus’ prank, while initially shocking, highlighted the deep camaraderie between the Gutfeld! panelists, a group known for their irreverent banter and willingness to push the envelope. The “Learning to Be a Dad” segment, with its slapstick mishaps and genuine laughter, showcased the universal challenges of parenthood, even for tough guys like Tyrus and seasoned comedians like Jamie Lissow. Gutfeld leaned into the chaos with the same humor that has made him a late-night staple, often compared to Bill Maher for his satirical take on current events.

As the episode wrapped, Gutfeld took a moment to reflect on fatherhood, sharing a rare glimpse of vulnerability. “Mira’s already taught me more than I ever thought possible,” he said, his voice softening. “And if I can survive Tyrus’ pranks, I can survive anything.” The audience cheered, and the episode closed with a montage of behind-the-scenes moments: Tyrus sneaking into the studio to plan the prank, Jamie practicing diaper changes on a stuffed animal, and Gutfeld holding a photo of Mira, beaming with pride. It was a reminder that beneath the satire and silliness, Gutfeld! is a show about connection—between the panelists, the audience, and now, a father and his daughter.

This episode of Gutfeld! has left fans buzzing, with social media lighting up with clips of Tyrus’ dramatic faint, the formula fiasco, and the diaper-changing debacle. It’s a testament to the show’s ability to blend humor with heart, turning a celebration of fatherhood into a night of unforgettable comedy. Whether Gutfeld will survive more of Tyrus’ pranks—or another round of diaper duty—remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: this new dad is navigating parenthood with the same fearless spirit that’s made him a late-night legend.
