Hello all C&R listeners out there, this is Maxamillion the “Intern” giving you an update on today’s show just in case you missed it, which we know you didn’t mean to do…
We kicked of this Wed-nes-day with Covino and Rich telling all the dudebros out there what their plans are for Christmas and over the next week while we are all on vacation. Over the next two days Covino and Rich will have a skit called the Ghosts of Xmas past, which they promise will be badass. Then they went into great detail about the original programming that they have created for next week. Covino and Rich decided not to just play old shit like most of the other shows around here do, so below is what they have in store for us, they specifically told me not to go into too much detail here because they want everyone to be surprised:
Monday: Cool Celeb Moments of 09’
Tuesday: Covino and Rich Fired Up
Wednesday: Covino and Rich’s Ass Wednesday
Thursday: C&R Excellent Adventure
Friday: C&R Power Move
After giving the dudebros their update we moved on to briefly talk about how President Obama called into a radio show (WTOP) incognito as Barry from DC so that he would get on the air without causing a fuss. This made us think about our friend Barry, aka Barnando, who calls in from time to time. We decided that although it would be badass to have the President call into the C&R show, Barnando is just too awesome; I mean he has his own theme song, Barrack doesn’t have that.
Then as a quick gear change we started to talk about the new Karate Kid movie that is staring Will Smith’s son Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan. The new movie is almost a complete change from the original which is a classic; the ethnicity of the characters has changed, instead of being in the US the movie takes place in China, it’s ridiculous. Covino is outraged that they can even do this to a classic 80s movie and all of our callers agreed. Bottom line, no one can be better than Daniel Larusso (Ralph Macchio) or Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita) from the original movie.
When we were done talking about the nonsense that is the new Karate Kid movie we decided to take a look back on 2009 to talk about the best Viral Videos that we got to see on the Interweb; below is our top 5 list given to us by Mikey Piff, the number one DJ from the Morning Mash Up:
1) Susan Boyle from Britain’s Got Talent
But just in case you don’t agree we are also giving you Spike.com’s top 10 list. People were calling in left and right and we giving us videos to watch left and right. Most of them I had heard already but being reminded of them was great. Others were new to me and those seemed even better to me. Covino and Rich decided that 2009 wasn’t as great a year for Viral Videos as were some years in the past and that they are taking it upon themselves to become Viral Video stars in 2010.
Finally the calls about the Viral Videos died down and we had the pleasure of being joined in the studio by Jeff the Jerkman, who according to Covino and Rich makes the best Jerky ever. He sat with us for a while, talked about his Jerky making and answered some caller’s questions. Then Covino and Rich decided to take the Jerkman under their wing to make sure that he will be a man in 2010 and be an ass getting machine.
After the Jerkman stepped down from the Mic a fucking hysterical man by the name of Gary Gulman stepped up. For those of you who don’t know Gary Gulman was on the Last Comic Standing television show for two seasons and Dane Cook’s Tourgasm. This man is definitely one of the kings of comedy and he makes me laugh so hard on a consistent basis that I think my ribs are about to break. Gary was her to shoot the bull and just to make us laugh; he succeeded. We talked about our first jerk off stories and then had Gary bring up his favorite Viral Videos, then we brought up the fact that being famous could either help you get ass or alienate you. Before Gary had to leave he dropped a bomb on us, apparently there are only two Xmas songs that you can bang to; Santa Baby and Baby it’s cold outside.
Gary got called away to do another interview so we decide to talk about a topic that is very much swoot; all the celebrity deaths that occurred in 2009. We were talking about the mass number of celebs that died this year, including Michael Jackson, Farah Faucet, Patrick Swayze and many others. According to Covino and Rich the Grim Reaper was the number one overworked person this year. This brought up the subject about how people cannot help but look into people’s deaths, the number one Google search is for a picture of Brittany Murphy’s death, this just proves that people are actually sick in the head.
Since the subject of celeb deaths was too swoot for Rich we decide to change it up and talk about Sports instead. Covino gave us an update on the Yankees and how they are systematically trading away the team that won the world series and then Rich brought up a question that he had been pondering, why do so many teams sweat Japanese players, only 3 have been worthwhile and yet many teams are getting players that haven’t proven themselves yet just because they come from Japan. Then Covino brought up the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight and how Pacquiao refuses to do Olympic style drug testing before the fight, we will keep you posted on what comes from this.
Then Rich pulled an audible so we could talk about Handshakes and how the Jerkman, when he was in the studio, almost broke Rich’s hand. Rich was wondering if a handshake that is too strong is douchey or authoritative. Then we talked about handshake dominance depending on how a person enters into the handshake. This topic seemed crazy to me because it is not something that people consciously think about; not to say people don’t recognize a strong or weak handshake but come on…
To finish off the show Rich asked Covino if there were any performers that he discovered this year. Covino said that he decided to like Lil Wayne this year and to stop bashing him and then Covino brought up the show Sing Off and how they had Bobby McFerrin on. Covino originally believed that Bobby, the singer of Don’t Worry Be Happy, was a one hit wonder, but he actually is like a one man band.
We did a lot today and will be back after the holidays, so make sure you catch us on the air. Happy Holidays everyone and although I would like to close with my own words the best ones to use come from Rich and Covino themselves: Arrivederci and See You in the Promised Land!
