Hey C&R listeners, this is Alex the “intern” giving you an update on today’s show.
The show started off on a sad note as C&R brought up Andrew Koenig (“Boner” from “Growing Pains”)’s untimely death. In honor of him, C&R ask for people’s best boner stories. Covino tells a story in which his mother awkwardly asked him why his penis was stiff. Rich brings up more embarrassing stories for Covino and Covino reminds him that there are a lot of women, including Layla and his mother, who are listening.
Covino says that when Barnando was younger and not a stoner, he used to be really hyper and run around with a boner in sweatpants. There were videos around of it and people around town would call him “Big Barry Banana Pants”. At first Covino thought this would be a bad thing for him but women were ultimately impressed by the banana. A caller suggests that a TickleSac song be made called “Boner in Sweatpants”.
C&R bring up a cool fact from Penn and Teller which says that if you want to pass a lie-detector test, squeeze your asshole when you tell the truth and do nothing when you lie. This is because it will equalize your heart rate so their is no difference between your lying rate and your truth telling rate.
Rich saw a film called “The Mist” last night and thought it was a really weird movie. Callers agree that it was a very strange film. Covino says he saw “The Hurt Locker” and didn’t like it very much. A caller, who was a former soldier, agrees with him. I say nothing but secretly think that “The Hurt Locker” was the best film of the year.
Baseball Coach Ozzie Guillen has been using Twitter like a madman and C&R read some of his hilarious tweets throughout the day. The White Sox are embarrassed by him but Rich says he’s the best thing that’s ever happened to The White Sox.
News Alert: Two flight attendents on a flight to Rochester got into a fist fight and the pilot kicked everyone off the plane.
C&R bring up a redheaded woman on American Idol who refused to take no for an answer from the judges. Despite her pleading, however, she was eventually eliminated from the show. Covino says that you should never take no for an answer, whether it be for a girl or a job. Rich disagrees and says that in some cases you should just accept a negative answer. He gives an example of a producer who doesn’t want to meet with him and points out that someone like this would not be a good prospective producer because they aren’t passionate enough. Covino points out that the guy has nothing to be passionate about if you don’t force him to meet with you in the first place.
Layla calls in to agree with Covino and express her disappointment with Rich’s point of view. She says that you should always say yes and never say no because as long as you keep trying, someone will give you a chance. She cites P. Diddy as an example and says that he once worked as a coffee boy in an office. Rich says that for every P Diddy, there are a thousand try hards who just annoy people. Covino says one should not be delusional about one’s ability like the American Idol girl but if you’ve got talent, you should make sure people know it. In the end C&R do not fully agree with on another.
C&R talk to Jake Strasburger who works at the Olympics. He says that there is lots of debauchery at this year’s Olympics but there’s nothing wrong with it because so many of the athletes are complete studs. He also points out that it isn’t fair that a back up place kicker in the NFL makes more money than Olympic skiers who are truly elite athletes.
Rich reads a letter from a guy named Jeremy who wants to know if he should confront his neighbor because his neighbor scratched his car while trying to do him a favor and snow blow his lawn. Should he ask him for money even though he was doing him a favor in the first place? Covino says absolutely, he didn’t ask for the favor so now he has to fix his damn car.
This has been your update for today, but tune in on Monday for more Covino and Rich!
