This is a small taste of the show overall, the bits and bobs that I found interesting and funny, insightful and relevant. To hear everything that happened, check out the podcast version of the show. If you want a quick read along with random self inserts and my personal thoughts, you've come to the right place.
Call in Point:
(This is the broadstroke canvas on which I base my call, obviously these notes are going to be longer and more detailed.)
So, this is an interesting discussion piece. It requires a real hands on investigation to get to the bottom of it. Unlike every day where Angi poses a question, today Abe was "asking for a friend." You see, he has tons of friends who love porn and they were curious as to what interesting porn sites are out there. We would later come to learn that this mess would be dumped on Head Roadie Trash Man Tim, Abe saying it was totally his idea ... sure buddy. A popular site seems to be XNXX where you can see things like a Czechoslovakian gang bang which Angi finds delightful and says is absolutely fun to watch (for the record it is 4 guys and 1 girl.) So, what are some sites that the roadies actually like. This again is for Abe's circle jerking friends and not him as he is innocent and pure and does not partake in such smut. When pressed up against, most of the roadies seemed to off up Xhamster as their go to site. I called in, much to Angi's excitement, to discuss a place I enjoy and also fear might get me arrested some day. It's called militaryclassified and it's a bunch of "straight" guys getting their jollies with a lecherous old Mexican man. I mentioned how I do have a thing for men in uniform, be it military, fireman, police officer and as we turned into a thing, Jimmy John's employees. That's right, we somehow decided that we need to create Jimmy John's porn with junk in the subs and a real "mayo bomb" on that sandwich. Also, a little behind the scenes tea for everyone exclusive to the notes. Off air, we discovered Angi hates the word farts and went as far as having to spell it so she wouldn't say it. This was brought on by Request Wars champ Trenton who mentioned something called dogfart network.
All the Rest:
Angi started the day by asking Abe how often he checks his bank account. He went on to say that he checks the account daily, several times on top of that. One assumes that it is something akin to that thing where you look in the fridge hoping something will show up when all you ever seem to find is mayo and Jack Daniels. You see, for him, his will to leave is directly tied to having money and without it, what's the point? Angi does check hers but she just wants to wake up one day and suddenly she is rich. As for most people, they hate to check their bank accounts because they are poor (I feel seen with this, how dare they.) Abe went on to discuss when he was 24 and completely carefree, he had been tossed from his job in Miami and he had been given a $24,000 severance which ended up as $14,000 after taxing. He was able to burn through all that cash in 3 to 4 months, mainly because he went to Vegas 7 times. So I think the whole point of this is simply an excuse to showcase why one should never give Abe any money at all because he will just lose it and his mind. ImagineLeaving Las Vegas, only replace rampant alcoholism and good acting with gallons of mayo, shirtless sub eating and if you've seenBloody Skull(Abe's amatuer movie,) you already know how the acting will turn out.
I know I already addressed watching earlier but there was a secondary point about it in the show today. This also happened early and it had to do with a picture that is sure to be nominated for a Razzie (at least if Angi gets her way.) It was calledDeadly Illusion, a Netflix trashterpiece starringSex in the Cityalum Kristen Davis as some form of lesbian or something. The thing is Angi has seen everything on Netflix and there is nothing left for her to indulge in while she lays on her back on the couch drinking wine all day. According to Angi, this is literally the worst movie she has ever seen and the only reason she stuck it out was for all the hot lesbo action that occured in it. Abe was not thrilled by this (probably because it was female nudity) since she is old now and now she finally wants to get naked. He probably overlooked that her taking out those old cans was probably the only way she was getting paid for this dumpster fire. Speaking of fires, Angi offset her awful watch with a good one. It was calledHall of Flame, which is a Comedy Central five part special that showcases the best 100 Comedy Central Roast moments. Nikki Glaser and her new tits are the host of it, which makes sense since she is always hilarious on those. Abe was into the idea of it at first but he assumed it would just be too hard to find and even then he doesn't want to go through the trouble of watching commercials. Angi was relentless though, she said it was so good, that it made her laugh the whole time. Another point that she touched upon makes sense with the current environment, almost none of these jokes could probably fly today because #cancelculture is so rampant right now.
Finally, Rick Nielsen from Cheap Trick checked in this morning to discuss the new Cheap Trick album. The album,In Another Worldis due out next Friday (April 9th) and it will be the bands 20th album. The new single "Light Up the Fire" is huge in Eastern Europe, like Poland and the such. While discussing the station, he mentioned how he intends to check it out (which makes sense as this is a new rock station and the only one in the city worth listening to.) The band will be going on tour this year with Rod Stewart, mainly making up tour dates that were canceled last year. Abe chimed in about having Cheap Trick play The Metro, which is something Rick would be open to doing. Abe was very confident that he could set that up and it would be an interesting show for the station's roadies as a return to the new normal. To close it out, Angi discussed her love of Pete's Pizza, which Rick got pretty modest about and said he was just the eye candy of the place (downplaying his co-ownership.) As the interview ended, he congratulated Angi and Abe on the show and the station, which is cool.
Request Wars:
Current Champion: Trenton
Challenger Song Choice: "River of Deceit"
Champion Song Choice: "Dragula"
Observation: Trenton gives no f's and it shows, he went throwing out the smack talk like it was going out of season. Speaking of things that were out, Dan-O was out of his league here and this should be an easy Trenton win.
Winner: Trenton
