Todd and Tyler Unauthorized Forums

Wednesday 5-22-02

Todd and Tyler began their show this morning by discussing an e-mail they received overnight. On yesterday’s show, they spent a little time talking about which state of the 50 they felt was the most useless to the country. After some discussion, North Dakota was picked. Well, the e-mailer didn’t seem to like that and decided to point out a variety of things about the state of Delaware that made him feel that state deserved the #1 worthless state title instead of North Dakota. TnT talked about some of the points from the e-mail but seemed to disagree on Delaware’s lack of worthiness to the country in comparison to North Dakota. Tyler pointed out that at least Delaware has a beach. Also early in the show, TnT discussed an article from the paper about a couple who has been married for 80 years. They all had their own thoughts on the long marriage as they talked about it and nearly everyone agreed that it would be pretty funny if the wife was a total bitch to her husband for the entire length of their 80-year marriage.

The guys then moved on to discussing Travis’s ‘’For What It’s Worth’’ reaction that he aired last night. From what they could gather, Travis seemed to be playing phone calls and reading e-mails from friends of his who actually know him in person, not just the every day average Joe on the street who Travis doesn’t know.

Also early in the show Joe from Blue House came in and hung out with the guys for a while. Tomorrow at the Music Box, Blue House is having a big CD release party for their new album called ‘’How Big’’. There is only going to be a $5 cover and the party begins with the band on stage at 6pm so all of you who haven’t been out to see Blue House should be able to make it to the show and home early enough to get to bed for work tomorrow. I can’t recommend these guys enough. Blue House is just a hell of a lot of fun to see live. Throughout Joe’s visit, Tyler played various clips of songs from the new CD while they discussed some of the inspiration for the tunes. Also, Donnie viciously abused our ears by playing Todd’s saxophone in the background. Hearing Donnie squeak away on Todd’s sax brought back memories of the little piggy squealing as that redneck farmer bit his nads off for the Talladega ‘’What Would You Do’’ contest a while back.

Todd and Tyler got into a very interesting topic this morning after browsing an issue of ‘’Stuff’’. In the magazine, there was an article about lies one could tell and probably get away with. They read through some of them and seemed to think that the lies were indeed something you could tell someone at a bar and they would have no way to determine whether you were lying or not. To further set the tone, TnT began to tell their own unbelievable but true stories before opening up the phone lines to allow their listeners to call in. TnT seemed to taunt the listeners into telling them believable lies, which some did, but early on they seemed to get mostly ‘’brush with greatness’’ stories. After putting an end to those calls though, they got tons of calls and e-mails from listeners who told outlandish stories trying to see if they could convince TnT that the tales were real. Many times the stories turned out to be true, but there were also quite a few convincing liars who were able to totally fool TnT with wild stories.

One of the more interesting stories on the lying discussion came from Wex. He told TnT that he thought, although he wasn’t sure, that he might have golfed with the actor Tom Hanks back in the late ‘80s at a Wisconsin golf course. He detailed his story and it didn’t sound like a lie because he came out and said he wasn’t really sure if the guy was actually tom Hanks. It seemed like him and according to an article Wex read in the paper around that time, Hanks was in the area filming a movie. TnT jumped on the web and tried to figure out which Tom Hanks movie might have been filming in Wisconsin in the late ‘80s but they were unable to pin it down.

Larry the Cable Guy checked in this morning with a commentary on the chubby lady who sued Jazzercise because they said she was too fat to be a teacher. You can hear more from Larry on the Todd and Tyler show as the week progresses so stay tuned.

John Paul Morgan from the Funny Bone called Todd and Tyler this morning to talk about his upcoming appearance at the Bone this weekend. He phoned from an airport and once he was connected with TnT, the screening people at the airport decided to pull him aside and check him out. Consequently, he had to hang up so we didn’t hear much from the Ragin’ Cajun’. He will most likely be joining TnT in studio on Friday morning so don’t miss that.

Towards the end of the show, TnT brought in Brian to do his entertainment report. Throughout his report, they took a few more lie phone calls form listeners before finally putting an end to the conversation. Then, after Brian read a story about a genetically altered bald chicken produced in India or something, the guys got off on a hilarious rant about ‘’bald cock’’ for a while. Shortly after, Brian read a story about some teens that anally abused a backgammon teammate with a metal pole; hence ‘’bald shuttlecock’’ references began to float about. It was very funny stuff.

Before drawing the e-news and their show to a close, TnT phoned Slave Boy Jeremy so Todd could place a bet with him as to who will win the fight between Joey Buttafuoco and the former He-Man wrestling chick, Joanie Laurer. Todd thought Buttafuoco would whoop the lady’s ass but Jeremy seemed to think otherwise. The bet the guys set up was that if Buttafuoco wins, Jeremy has to walk around Lake Cunningham with a ‘’Fondle Me’’ sign pinned to his chest. If Joanie wins, Todd will pay Jeremy $100. Tune in to ‘’Celebrity Boxing 2’’ on Fox tonight and see if Jeremy’s going to get his package grabbed in the gay park soon!

Tomorrow Cheshire Grin will stop by the studio to perform a couple of tunes. They are just one of the bands performing on Sunday at the Anchor Inn for the big summer kickoff party with Todd and Tyler. The guys will give all the details of the event each day throughout the rest of the week so stay tuned for the info. That’s all for the update today. Tune in tonight at 10pm for the 3^rd Shift Replay and rejoin TnT tomorrow at 5:30am for the Thursday program. Thanks for watching. Good night. -Corby-
