I don’t know how much or how often I’ll be able to make posts like this since I do start work at 7am Mon-Fri but I’ll see if I can and update the post as the show goes on.
Dave Lamont is back, even if it is just for the day, I’m sure most people appreciate hearing his voice back on the radio.
The interview with Alice Cooper went extremely well. Alice is performing at the Pompano Beach Amphitheater (tickets start at $33). Alice announced that $1 of every ticket will go to the food bank. Alice also commented that even though he loves to play golf, his “character” on stage hates golf. There will also be a contest where one person will win the opprotunity to “throw out the balloons” during the concert’s closer, “School’s Out” (which Alice said is the main “party” song). Alice was a great interview, down to earth and he at least tried to be funny.
Ben Bailey from the Cash Cab was on talking about the Cash Cab and his comedy shows. Ben actually had to go to a cab school and get licensed to drive a cab before he could do the show, including a drug test and background check (neither of which he was “prepared’ for). Ben is also appearing at the Improv Comedy Club in Hollywood this weekend. Tickets are still available.
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.
I think OMG is not guilty. He told the cashier about the beer and she chose NOT to ring it up. I think we’ve all been in the situation where someone forgot to charge us for something and we didn’t say anything. The cashier didn’t ring it up so why is Mike guilty?
Despite what Paul is saying - no one is going to get fired over this, the store will write off the case of beer as “shrink”. I spent many years working in grocery stores (bagger up to department management), I know for a fact that unless they suspect it is someone doing it over and over, they will only write off the case of beer. I double OMG is going in there every week to steal beer.
What the hell, I’m offering this site up for the “biggest billboard”. According to traffic history, this site gets at least 100 visitors a day Monday though Friday and about 50-75 a day Saturday and Sunday.
If I am not on the ballot and you would like to vote for this site (I don’t know how voting will go) just enter YouCantWin.net.
I have to say this was the best April Fool’s Day joke they’ve ever played - this even beats OMG’s Halloween prank last year. I started to lose reception around mile marker 44 on Alligator Alley but I was able to bounce between Big 105.9 and The Gater 98.7 but I started to really lose it around mile marker 80 so I actually took an exit near there, pulled over and took out my laptop and aircard so I could listen though web radio. This was classic. If I had been in my office I would have called in to play along.
I have to admit - OMG deserves something from this - he is such a good sport considering what they do to him. (Plus what a great job with the prank - the cast, the sponsors, and the callers all did a great job!)
So the big question is - when did you know it was a prank? When Eric got the first question right I thought that it could be extremely possible but once he got into the story with the second question, I knew something was up (although it was great to listen to!).
As for Paul and the Quantum of Solace - I put the movie at the top of my queue on Blockbuster.com (the same day I returned my three movies). The three were received late Monday, this movie shipped out yesterday and I got it today. I don’t know why Paul was saying some time in May with Netflix but I got mine in 3 working days. (and if it is because he was on a free trial, you’d think Netflix would make them a higher priority so they might actually sign up?).
I went onto my Blockbuster.com account and I moved the Quantum of Solace to the top of the list. I just returned my 3 movies this morning (they should be received tomorrow or on Monday). I’ll see when I get it in.
(I went with Blockbuster because you can either pay more for in-store exchanges (free) or for regular price exchange them in the stores for $1.99.)
Personally I think the website is immoral and it is something I would never do nor go to it.
BUT
My way of protesting this is that I am not going to go to the site nor am I going to take advantages of their services. I’m an adult I can make my own decisions. Honestly, there is enough idolizing of unethical acts in the media today so why is everyone jumping on this one site? They didn’t cause the infidelity and if someone is going to cheat - they are going to cheat. As it was said, learn to talk to your partner / spouse.
Quit with the knee-jerk reaction people are having. “I’m never going to listen to P&YR again”, “I’m never going to listen to Clear Channel anymore” etc… grow up and be an adult. If you’re really that upset about it then go out and start your own website helping people build their relationships and compete with Ashley Madison. Quit being crybabies and start acting like an adult.
Clear Channel has P&YR on to make them money and they do this though advertisers. This site wants to make money so they figured advertising on P&YR would reach the most people for their buck. Everyone has a right to do what they’re doing and WE have the right to either go to the site, ignore them, or compete with them.
This site is in no way affiliated with the Paul and Young Ron show, Big 105.9FM, 98.7 The Gater, Clear Channel Communications, or any of their employees.
