Thursday, 12/13 -- Hi, when you, the listener, read this – it might be snowing. Or it might not be.
JC has a new cat. He doesn’t have a name yet. Please don’t send your suggestions, his daughters get to choose.
Tim of Saint Louis has suggested we title the new show between 5:30–6 am, “The Pre-Wind.” And that is probably what it’s gonna be called.
We talked about the three people from Atlanta who replaced JC at “Station A.” Mark is back in Atlanta doing voice-over work (JC thinks that means he doesn’t have a radio job, although voice-over work can be very lucrative). Steve is the afternoon drive guy & program director of Atlanta’s country station. And John has lost track of Rob.
JC & John don’t believe that the Cardinals should have released Aaron Miles. They can’t understand the thinking in that move.
Our Christmas songs today included (not) Billy Paul’s “Me & Mrs. Claus,” Joe Pesci’s (yes, that Joe Pesci) “If It Doesn't Snow for Christmas,” (not) The Beatles’ “Jesus’ Birthday.” Speaking of The Beatles, here’s that Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band interactive page: click here.
Our 12 Days of Christmas leaped over the $4k mark today for the “Ultimate Game Room.” Here’s what Hal knew:
- France consumes the most wine in the world.
- Baking cookies turns women on, even more than sittin’ by the fire.
Following yesterday’s discussion of live endorsements, we want to reiterate that JC is not jealous or begrudging of John’s success. According to a disinterested third party in sales at one of our sister stations here is why JC doesn’t have more live commercials:
- He’s too controversial & polarizing, so some advertisers don’t like that.
- John is too beloved (& less of number one).
- JC berates the sales staff. No one likes to be berated & therefore won’t go to bat for him to negate the above numbers 1 & 2.
Here’s Charlie Sheen’s overdone Christmas light display:
Forbes says the most overpaid celebs are:
-- Russell Crowe
-- Nicole Kidman
-- Jim Carrey
-- Will Ferrell
-- Jennifer Lopez
-- Adam Sandler
-- Cameron Diaz
-- Denzel Washington
-- Will Smith
-- Tom Cruise
Non-format concert announcements:
Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus "Best of Both Worlds Tour" will be at Scottrade Center Tuesday, January 15, 2008 (John’s birthday!) at 7 p.m. Tickets: $63.50, $53.50, $41 and $23.50. They go on sale Saturday, Dec. 15, at noon.
Reba McEntire & Kelly Clarkson “The 2 Worlds 2 Voices Tour” will be at the Family Arena Thursday February 07, 2008 at 7:30pm. Tickets: $59.75, $49.75 & $39.75 at 10am.
I could get into the numbers, but basically the top three minorities dislike & distrust each other, while they whitey more than each other.
Number one travel destination in the world: London. I met my wife on a plane to London. I love London, but it’s too dang expensive right now. Off the air we were talking about cheap flights that I found to London ($250 each way through Chicago on bmi) and we said that they want you to get over the pond to spend that sagging American dollar.
Pregnant women don’t fall over because one lower back vertebrae & a hip joint are in a different spot than men.
The JoY was yesterday’s Blarrrg video. The 3fA featured Canned Heat and our Body Worlds tickets. The Vault was “The Rebel Jesus” by Jackson Browne. Finally, Glenn Frey was in Jerry Maguire.
Don't
Do Anything Stupid,
Carl The Intern
