Todd and Tyler Unauthorized Forums

Thursday 10-4-01

Todd and Tyler began their show this morning by talking about last night’s “The West Wing” episode. There was an analogy made during the episode that said something to the effect of, “Extremist Muslims are to Islam as the KKK are to Christianity”. Both TnT seemed to think that it was a very good comparison and would help people to get a better idea of exactly who the enemy is on America’s War on Terrorism. We are, after all, not trying to stamp out Islam like some of the extremists might have you believe, we’re trying to get rid of the extremists who have hijacked the Islamic religion and twisted it for their own purposes.

Also early in the show, TnT spoke about the bus crash that occurred yesterday and how it wasn’t terrorist related, as Donnie initially believed. The guys offered several bets to Donnie yesterday about whether or not it was a terrorist involved but luckily for Donnie, he didn’t accept the bets. From the sounds of it, the 30% (or so) of his paycheck that his ex-wife doesn’t get would have gone into the pocket of Todd. Another big topic early in this morning’s program was about the 10,000 tickets Delta is giving away to New York City for free in an attempt to not only bring people back to the airlines, but also help boost tourism and the economy of the city. Tyler was pissed when he heard that because it was Delta who wanted to charge him $1000 for a $280 ticket when he inquired about moving his father’s trip to Omaha up a couple of days. At the same time, however, Tyler seemed to see the logic behind Delta’s decision. He just didn’t care for them trying to ( O ) <-- do that, to his bung over his dad’s ticket change request.

Unexplained quote of the day from Todd: “I saw Brian whacking off and it was kind’a boring.”

Dwayne Meyers from Meyer’s Amoco phoned TnT this morning and detailed a story that Donnie had mentioned earlier in the show. Dwayne had received a phone call from a guy named John Horne, who claimed to be representing Trinity Church (yep, Father Bench Press). The man told Dwayne that he was putting together a list of businesses that his group was going to boycott because of their association with (advertisers of) the Todd and Tyler show. Furthermore, the reason he was putting together the list had nothing to do with Todd and Tyler’s religious talk or points of view, but it was because of their “bashing” of the Huskers and the Crouch Baby. That amused TnT greatly, but overall, they were pissed. Donnie phoned the fine folks at Trinity Church who they went through their database and found out that “John Horne” isn’t a member of or representative of the church. Furthermore, they said their church does not do any lists like the ones the man had described to Dwayne. Donnie politely warned the church that someone was falsely presenting themselves as a representative of their church and then came in the studio and filled TnT in on what had occurred over the phone. I’m sure further details about this “John Horne” character will arise in the future so stay tuned in.

Brian came in and did news this morning for the guys. He read over a few stories, which included a list of the top 10 lesbian-friendly cities in the country. To TnT’s surprise, Milwaukee was #1 on the list. Also during the newscast, Brian’s racist thoughts on one of the stories appalled TnT. I can’t remember exactly what was said to begin the discussion but I do recall TnT’s reaction to Brian’s comments and they weren’t very happy with him. To further piss Todd and Tyler off, Brian’s kicker story to close out the newscast was about an abusive man who got his 2-year-old hammered on Rum and Coke to the point of the child’s blood/alcohol content was .3. TnT sent Brian back to the office and made him bring out the kicker story from yesterday, which was about a guy who was killed when a car smashed him. The story detailed how the man threw a fit and sat in the road after being pulled over by the police and that’s when the car pancaked his stupid ass.

After Brain redid the story about the man who got run over by a car, TnT opened the phone lines and took calls from their listeners. Throughout the remainder of the day, the show was littered with calls from necks that shared stories of being hit by cars. One of the funnier stories came from a guy who stiff-armed an El Camino. Travis also shared several stories, including the one about getting tossed out of a truck and landing on his head when his brother took a sharp turn in a piece of crap vehicle.

Towards the end of the show, the “a car hit me” stories seemed to degenerate. Most of the late morning callers were either repeating stories already heard or their stories were not very interesting. Tyler specifically seemed to be increasingly less interested with calls. It was great! You now when you engage in conversation with someone at a bar and then you realize they’re a complete nut job who won’t shut the F-Bomb up about their kids or their boring job, and you’re trying to do everything you can to let them know you’re sorry you even bothered to talk to them and you’re not interested in hearing about little Johnny’s pickle collection or the OTR output of their SMA project but they just don’t get it and keep rambling on and on? Yea, it was kind of like that. Very funny stuff.

Tommy Y and Sean Gnant from the Funny Bone came in this morning and hung out for a while. Sean talked about a recent comedy journey north of here that ended up costing him more than $700. The reason for the cost was that the car he rented for the voyage had a limit of 200 miles per day. Sean put more than 5,000 miles on the car. TnT also called Sean’s mom and had Donnie play the part of Sean. She had Donnie figured out right from the start because Donnie’s call didn’t begin with a long, boring story prior to asking for money. Catch both of these guys along with J. J Ramirez at the Funny Bone this weekend. It’s going to be a great show. Phone 493-8036 for reservations. By the way, J. J. Ramirez will join TnT in studio tomorrow so make sure to tune in.

Towards the end of this morning’s show, TnT brought the General Manager, Steve into the studio to talk about their golf outing yesterday. At one point in their adventure, Steve ran into a sticky situation with a rather difficult golf shot. He took a swing and ended up plopping the ball into the mud. Immediately, and almost as if on cue, Todd and Tyler both busted into laugher, not exactly the best thing to do when your boss biffs one. The guys went on and described a few other humorous moments involving Steve that occurred yesterday as well. All in all, their GM didn’t seem to be too upset with TnT for having a better golf game than he did yesterday. Oh yea, by the way, Todd didn’t head to Planet Altoid in the solar system of Port-A-John because he was playing with his boss.

Well, that’s the Thursday update. Tune in tomorrow from 5:30am to 10am for another show and then swing back here in the afternoon for the update. Thanks for watching. Good night. -Corby-
