Today's Show
Jim directed everyone to the Facebook fan page picture of KB in his soap "hunk" days. Kyle came on air to explain that people would pay to attend functions/parties with the Soap actors. Kyle is pictured dancing with two ladies. He said they grabbed him and said, "Kyle, we're gonna give you the 'Southern Sandwich'." Later Kyle told Jim he wasn't offered the "Southern Sandwich"...he was "force fed". Another comment from KB, "Some are nice...some smell like old ham."
Mike Mandt and Phil Guidry going to an "Empire Strikes Back" themed Dodger game was show fodder.
My Choice for Interview of the Week
Larry Bowa
The former Phillies player, manager, and current Dodger 3rd base coach came on and discussed the Dodgers, Joe Torre, Manny Ramirez, and Hanley Ramirez. He actually said he doesn't think he wants to manage again. He's not sure he can function with his old school mentality with many of today's players.
My Top 5 Funniest Moments of the Week
5. Jim recap of the arrest of former NASCAR driver James Neal, who reached speeds of 140 mph in a Corvette while being chased by police. Rome said it sounded like this: ......the Rachel in Houston "NASCAR" sound byte was run over and over again.
4. GSP or GSV. MMAer Georges St. Pierre was interviewed and gave short and abrupt answers. It turns out he was at the airport and was worried he would miss his flight. An E mailer asked after if that was GSP or GSV (Greg in Sun Valley). It's funny to me to hear my name and my voice unexpectedly on the radio.
3. Jay Mohr saying that Brian Cushing needed a bra before using PEDs during his call to the show on Thursday.
2. Jim's "final warning" to Blaise in KC before he gets BLOCKED!
1. Jim first calling Fabian in Los Angeles "Fabio", then Jim's bit on giving Fabian plenty of time during his calls. The famous "shortest call" ever on the sho was played repeatedly. (This was not funny to some that posted Facebook fan page comments that day. To me it's Jungle history. I heard that call back in 2000, and references to it always ring funny to me.)
Friday's Text Contest Selections
"That picture is not a southern sandwich...more like KFC's new sandwich with no bread...2 chunks of meat with a piece of cheese in the middle." Matt
"That picture is tremendous. Signed, Mark Grace."

Hey GSV,
ReplyDeleteTop 5, #4, was my email.
The poor phone connection and GSP's brief answers made him sound somewhat mechanical. My buddy made the connection to you, and I got the GSP/GSV connection.

Cool! That was funny! Thanks Rich!
