You Can’t Win - the new season starts today

Posted on Sep 29, 2008 under YCW | No Comment

Last season was “season 12″ but they’re saying today that it is season 6. Eh, whatever. :)

About 8:20AM we will have questiuon #1 for the new season of You Can’t Win!

Prizes include:

  • A two year least on a Hyundai Elantra from Rick Case Hyundai
  • 7 day Caribbean cruise on any Ryal Caribbean cruise liner
  • Jude Frances 18K white & yellow gold earrings
  • $2000 cash from Dr. Ernie Soto (sedation dentist)
  • Season tickets ot the Dolphins
  • 1 Six pack of Bud Lime each day there isn’t a winner

This post will be updated thoughout the morning.

They cast seemed a little disappointed that the last 2-3 questions were answered “very quickly” last season.

Question #1
Oddly, this didn’t happen until the 1990s, what was it?

As for the new time, personally I’m not too overly crazy about it. Before at 7:45 I could listen before my day gets busy but now that it is at 8:20, it will be hard to keep up since most of my users start at 8.

Mancathalon?

What is it?

I guess they post a question online and then take callers to try to answer the question(s)?

They continue to ask you questions - it seems like each person can either take the money and run or try to answer the next question for more money (but if you get a question wrong then you lose all the money).

Today, the first day, was Andy.

These two JFK guys were both born today in 1946 - who are they? (Andy is going to miss it).

There will be a new question for tomorrow.

I really hope this is not replacing You Can’t Win.

Rate the last 5 decades

Posted on Sep 10, 2008 under Show Topics | No Comment

Today’s show they’re revisiting the “bar topic” over rate the last 5 decades.  Paul says that the 80s were the best. I can very well imagine that the 80s were a great time to live here in south Florida (I was in New England at the time).

I’ve opened this up for discussion on the forums (link) for people do discuss it. I’ve posted my answers - would people agree with me?

Dave Lamont - coming back (well, calling back) for a talk.

It’ll be good to hear him again.  I’m not a huge sports fan but this is one I’ll stick around for.

I agree, Dave know about as much as you can know about local and college sports.

Dave called in from Louisisana, he will be covering on ESPN classic next week and will not be doing th FAU game.  Dave is rooting for the Miami Hurricanes as a fan but the Gators as a “football” person in this week’s game in Gainesville.

 Dave’s pick the Gators by 17 points.

Dave’s call was quick but as usual, he gave some great information.

Sara Palin field dressing a moose

Posted on Sep 03, 2008 under Show Topics | No Comment

They are all oer the qoute about Sara Palin “She is the first nominee of either party who knows how to properly field dress a moose”.

Being originally from New England, this is no big deal to me (my 10 year old (female) cousin has bagged the largest moose in her family while hunting in Maine).  She knows how to do this too.  What I find respectful is that Sarah has gone though what a lot of people go though (hunting for one).  She seems to be the the most down-to-Earth candidate I’ve ever seen.
