You Can’t Win will be back..

Posted on Jul 29, 2008 under The Show | No Comment

Paul just said the game, “You Can’t Win” will be back for their fall lineup. I’m not sure exactly when that is but I’m assuming sometime in the fall. :)

I can’t wait.

Toast’s “Baby Borrow” - shot down

Posted on Jul 29, 2008 under The Show, The Staff, Toast | No Comment

Today’s main topic, can Toast borrow someone’s baby for one day (and he would have 5 babies for 5 days in a row) to see if he and his wife / GF can manage taking care of a child. So far they have three volunteers to allow Toast to watch his children for a day.

Honestly, I’m finding this quite entertaining. I don’t have a problem with it. Ron is claiming that the mothers are leaving their child with a stranger but as Paul said, it’s not like they’re leaving them off with a stranger at the bus stop.

The corporate office of Clear Channel shot down the idea (in a big way) that they cannot let Toast “borrow” a baby (but they did mention that they think the show sounds good). This happened about 8:30, I’m suprised that they (the office) was working that early.

It also seems that there are a few fellow New Englanders there in the show. Where was the prep school? Please do not say Phillips-Exeter Academy.

No YCW today but OMG has a rather interesting breakfast.

Yep, there is no You Can’t Win today, OMG is eating some rather disgusting food (although the avacado shake didn’t sound that bad).

But, toothpaste and baby powder?  That is really gross.

Mike’s Ratings (I might miss a few of these since I am at work):
1 being the least disgusting, 10 being the worst.
0 being something Mike would definately eat again.

  • “Rooster Fries” (Testicles) : 0 (”Tastes like chicken” OMG would eat it again)
  • Buttered Cow’s Hoof: 1
  • Avacado Milkshake : 1
  • Beef Tripe (Stomach lining) : 2
  • Chicken Feet :3
  • Roasted Marrow Bone : 4
  • Pickled Octopus : (Rating not said on the webcast though the Gater)
  • Limburger cheese w/ onions and strawberries sandwich : 7?
  • Goat’s Head (Brain) : 7
  • Squid Chips : 8 (Paul at some and had to leave the stuido “The worst thing he’s ever had in his life”)
  • Toothpaste and baby powder: 8 (Possibly disqualified since it is not technically food
  • Belut (sp?) - Duck Embryo (partially developed): 8.5(Mike spit it out or threw up :) I am getting sick just thinking of this one)
  • Goat’s Head (Eye) : 9? (Tastes like warm mayonaise but due to the technical difficulties I missed OMG’s rating)

Quotes of the week:
Steve: “He’s gone from eating balls to sucking on a bone”


Steve: I’d eat the testicles.
Paul: But that’s normal for you.
Steve: But I normally don’t swallow

You Can’t Win - Question #6 has been answered

Posted on Jul 21, 2008 under Callers, Questions Answered, The Show | No Comment

In the immortal words of the sound clip:

I’m sure you’re all with me when I say congratulations you son of a bitch

Jeff got all six questions correct today. Good job guy, too bad I was caller #1 and #3. :( (I had a few cell phones dialing in as well as a few office phones).

Dave Lamont - let go?

Posted on Jul 16, 2008 under The Show, The Staff | 21 Comments

So, it seems that the sportscaster of WIOD, Dave Lamont, was let go. What is Clear Channel doing? It’s sad to see him go but maybe CC has good reasons for this or did he get another job?

It looks like he got into an argument with one of the program directors at 610AM and was “let go” due to this. It looks like we won’t be enjoying him on the Paul & Young Ron show anymore. :(

I should have noticed something was missing the past few days. Good luck, Dave. Hopefully you can quickly pick yourself back up with a good job.

Question #4 is finally answered

I was calling but I was caller #2 and #7 *cry*.

A big congratulations to Scott for getting the complete answer to question #4.

What do Paul Castronovo and Sir Winston Churchill have in common?
Both have been to Cap’s place and both have stayed at the Mount Washington Hotel on Mount Washington in NH.

We also finally got question #5:

Picture Picture on the wall there is no Ron but only Paul, where am I?
