Question #3 has finally been answered!
Congratulations to today’s caller, Jenn, for getting question #3 right.
Question #3: What do the Dukes of Hazard, The A Team, and MacGyver have in common?
CORRECT ANSWER: Day 88 – August 26, 2009 (Jenn): They’re all on page 87 of Barguments.
And of course, we got question #4:
Question #4 – This takes 13 minutes, what is it?
Paul gets recruited to the Navy and Lisa on the show.
I’m going to see if I do have the time to be able to post recaps about the show but it may not be consistent or include all significant topics due to work.
Paul got a letter from the Navy recruiting him. He did call the contact # on the form but they’re waiting for the Navy to call him back.
Which Marlins is #6 of all times? He’ll be on the show soon.
8:00 hour – Lisa Lampanelli, a.k.a. “The Queen of Mean”, will be on the show.
The hint…
The hint is:
The previous hints here:

Ron Brewer is an alcoholic
Bar (From Paul’s Facebook).
The new hint is:
The answer played last Thursday morning.
We were given another hint during the game:
Miami Herald
Paul also said that the book was announced on Thursday morning.
Tommy is now gone…
Paul announced on his Facebook today that Tommy is now gone from the show. It’s a sad week for the Paul and Young Ron show. First, they lose Steve and now Tommy. Who next?
Ok friends, Tommy Owen is out. We wish him well in his future endeavors. He wants to be a Hollywood screen writer! so, the search for the next member of the P/R show is on…I have two candidates that I love so far. Will fill you in when I can…
Also – the podcast form today is very poor in quality and extremely choppy – it took me 3 tries just to get the wrong answer but there was a lot of comments from the staff on her answer (like she was extremely close).
Lastly, the You Can’t Win update tomorrow will also be late (I pray the quality of the podcast is MUCH better). More work at work (yeah, it sucks when I have to do that during YCW, but work does pay the bills).
Today in Rock (Aug 12) and news about Steve.
Paul posted though his Facebook account that Steve Branzig is no longer with the show:
Before it becomes a huge issue and the lead story all over the news. Steve Brancik is no longer with the Paul and Young Ron show. Unfortunately, do to the legal issues surrounding this issue, I cannot comment at this time. And you know me: I comment …about everything. Sorry, but I certainly hope you bear with us and our show during this difficult time. That being said, we have already reached out to Tommy!
Before any rumors start on this site – “due to legal issues” does not indicate that he did anything illegal, it could just be HR (human resources) reasons why he left but this does lead us to believe that he left involuntarily. Steve will be missed.
Also, YCW update will be late tomorrow, the boss is in town and I need to behave while I’m here, that means no streaming audio or non-work related work. I’ll catch the podcast later in the day (evening) and post the update then.
Now, for today in rock!
- 1949 – Mark Knophler (Dire Straights – leader / guitar / songwriter / vocals) was born.
- 1960 – Pete Best begins a (short) career with the Beatles as their drummer. He is later replaced with Ringo Starr.
- 1961 – Roy Hay (Culture Club) was born.
- 1963 – Sir Mix-A-Lot was born.
- 1966 – The Beatles begin their last American tour.
- 1967 – Fleetwood Mac make their stage debut at the UK National Blues and Jazz Festival. Also appearing are Cream, Small Faces, Ten Years After, Donovan, and Pink Floyd.
- 1972 – The first ever rock concert for charity begins. The Festival of Hope in Garden City, NY has Jefferson Airplane and Stephen Hills on their bill but the event loses $100,000.
- 1972 – Derek and the Dominoes enter the UK charts with “Layla”.
- 1993 – Red Hot Chili Peppers hire Jesse Tobias. He only lasts 3 months before they replace him with Dave Navarro. Spinal Tap, anyone? At least he didn’t die.
- 1994 – “Woodstock ’94″ opens in Saugerties, NY. Green Day, Nine Inch Nails, Aerosmith, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers all perform. Candlebox, Collective Soul, Live, Blind Melon, the Henry Rollins Band, and Melissa Ethridge all perform on the opening day. Tickets are $135 each yet people get in for free and the “event” has an exclusive deal with Pepsi. Yep, exactly like the original Woodstock.
Another hint for question #3
Paul posted on his Facebook page:
You can’t win question 3 hint: Bar
The previous hints:
Ron is a drunk.
Page 87.
The past few callers have also said magazines: Maxim and TV guide but Paul says it is the wrong publication.
A nice hint today…
Today’s caller, Donna, answered “They’re all on page 87 of Maxim Magazine”. Paul clearly said “close but not that magazine”.
