Todd and Tyler Unauthorized Forums

Monday 1-14-02

Todd and Tyler started off their show this morning by discussing their weekends. The guys attended their company’s holiday party, which was held at their boss’s home. They gave some details of the event, later to be revisited in more detail, before talking about a variety of other topics. The Bush pretzel incident was mentioned, as TnT found it rather amusing that the leader of the free world was almost taken out by a crispy snack treat. If only the Pres still drank, a cold beer might have helped him wash down the jagged, salty shrapnel prior to him passing out on his dog.

Also early in the program, Tyler talked about a dream he had in which news chick Brian gave birth out of his ass. They concluded that the dream was most likely sparked by their discussions last week of Brian’s butt problems, which I’m sad to say I missed (I’m never leaving town again!). Speaking of Brian, he bought a new car and told TnT all about it today. He purchased an 88 VW Fox for $350 and as you can imagine, TnT had some fun picking on him for his selection.

The guys spent a bit of time reading snippets from the World Herald, who has found a way to relate nearly everything to the Huskers. The read over a few Barely A Pulse articles about the Huskers before moving on to a standout http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_np=...u_sid=281071” target=blank>article about an 85-year-old lady who fell in her garage and was rescued. The first paragraph of the story had a Husker tie-in, which had pretty much nothing at all to do with the rest of the story.

TnT spent some time talking about the new TV game shows that are airing. “The Chamber”, which premiered on FOX last night, is the first of this new breed of game show featuring torture-like scenarios for the contestants. The gang all detailed what they saw last night, which included an ice chamber blasting water and below freezing air onto a strapped in woman answering questions as well as another contestant tied into a heat chamber where temperatures reached 150 degrees. They discussed a similar show called “The Chair” which will begin airing soon to combat “The Chamber”. These new, more edgy game shows are the next evolution in the prime time television game show family tree. The guys wondered how long it would be before we actually get something like “The Running Man” in real life.

Larry the Cable Guy checked in this morning and delivered a commentary on the President’s pretzel mishap yesterday. He noticed, as did Todd and Tyler during their earlier discussions on the topic, that the Bush family must not be able to eat very well, drawing us back to when GW’s father puked on those Asian dudes when he was running the world. Larry will check in again as the week progresses so stay tuned.

During the entertainment news, Brian read another engagement announcement detailing the social lives of those involved in one particular wedding. There was the standard fraternity/sorority mentions as well as a humorous tidbit about the woman’s social live. She was the president of some Catholic group of young, single people. TnT wondered whether or not she was going to have to step down from her position as the president of the singles group now that she is married. They further speculated on the joyous and fun activities that must be involved with such an organization. Also during Brian’s entertainment report, the song “Wild Fire” was brought up. At that point, the amazing talent of the Z Gees resurfaced for the first time in a couple of weeks as Todd, Tyler, Donnie and Brian belted out an ear piercing Z Gees style rendition of the tune. Shortly after their performance, an audio clip found its way into the computer and throughout the remainder of the show, the Z Gees cover of “Wild Fire” spewed out of the speakers of radios across the Omaha area at various times.

The guys continued their conversation about the holiday party mayhem they witnessed over the weekend. The mayhem didn’t relate to the party itself, but more to a few employees who attended the event. Throughout the show, the guys spoke with people who were at the party and had stories to share about the evening. The stories included a prank by Donnie and Slave Boy Chris who thought it would be fun to hide the boss’s grill behind a tree, someone else threw some cheese behind the refrigerator and one guy had some serious ass problems in the bathroom which nearly required the HASMAT team. The boss himself, Steve, came in studio and talked about the party for a bit, too. Surprisingly, after hearing how drunken radio people ransacked his home during the party, he seemed to be good humored about the pranks, even funny. He’s the best boss one could ask for. I bet he’s the best boss in the world, perhaps the universe. We also found out during the discussion that Todd is a master ping-pong player, but even though he is a skilled pong Jedi, he was defeated by some tool that brought his own pong paddle to the party.

Brian’s upcoming colonostamy was a huge topic on the show today, as I’ve been informed it was last week while I was away. Throughout the remainder of the show, TnT talked about Brian’s procedure and took calls from people who had colonostamy stories to share. There was talk about the actual procedure as well as much discussion about the cleaning out process, which Brian will begin today at 4pm by drinking a gallon of laxative. Nearly everyone who called in to talk about the laxative had bad things to say about it, effects-wise and taste-wise. In one of the more memorable calls today, a guy checked in and informed TnT and Brian of the “farting” ritual that takes place after one goes through the procedure. Evidently, while you are getting probed, the doctors blow air into your bowels to puff things out in order to get a better view. After you’re finished, they stick you, and whoever else might have had the same procedure done that day, into a little room where you are instructed to fart out all of the air the doctors so lovingly blew into your bung. Well, TnT had a heyday with that knowledge and it didn’t take them long to whip out the old fart CD for our listening pleasure.

Well, that’s about it for the update today. Tomorrow, a very hungry Brian who will most likely be tired after a night of anal dry heaving will join TnT again. Trav will be in to do the sports, Donnie will screen out your bad calls, and Todd and Tyler will host the program. Tune in from 5:30am to 10am for another show and then check back here in the afternoon for the update. Also, tune in this evening at 10pm for the 3^rd Shift Replay in case you missed any of today’s show. Thanks for watching. Good night. -Corby-
