Cortney comes to meet Johnathon and Andre Dawson

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 3:05 pm

Cortney
Courtney, the girl Johnathon met on the website, came onto the show today. She took a red-eye bus from Detroit to Chicago to stay with Johnathon this weekend. As soon as they saw each other they began to make out. Rover, Duji and Dieter were all pretty blown away by the embrace. Courtney is married, as Johnathon had mentioned. She has been seperated from her husband for quite a while though and said they are only together for tax and insurance purposes.

Rover designed a game for Courtney and Johnathon to play because they said they think they are soul mates. Rover had a list of questions that they had to answer and also answer what the other person would say. They could win $10 for each correct answer but lose $10 for each incorrect one. Some of the questions included where what age they lost their virginity, 13 for Johnathon and 15 for Courtney. They also told how many sexual partners they have had, which was around 100 for Courtney. They started out well but ended up $20 in the hole.

Andre Dawson Chicago Cubs Throwback Replica Jersey
Andre Dawson, “The Hawk”, was on the show this morning. Being a huge Cubs fan, especially around the mid to late 80’s, I am a huge Andre Dawson fan. Dawson started out playing for the Expos but the artificial surface they play on took a toll on his knees. He then came to the Cubs where he was the 1987 NL MVP. Rover asked Andre about how much money he made. He said he didn’t really make a whole lot until after the Cubs when he played for the Red Sox, he was making $4 million a year there. Andre has yet to make it into the Baseball Hall of Fame. His former teammate and my favorite player of all time, Ryne Sandberg, used his acceptance speech as a camapaign to get Dawson in. Sandberg called Dawson, “best player I ever played with.”

Dieter drills through his hand

Filed under: Dare Dieter — Justin @ 2:53 pm

This is probably the most dangerous dare I have heard of to date besides maybe the bug zapper. Last year, Dieter and Dumb (the former phone screener) challenged each other to see who could take more shots from a nail gun. The loser agreed to shoot the nail gun through the webbing between their thumb and index finger. Dumb quit after one nail but refused to take the nail through the webbing. Dieter held him down and shot it through it anyway. Lots of problems came up after this, with Dumb claiming he had been assaulted and Dieter almost getting fired.

A listener wrote in and wanted Dieter to drill through the webbing of his hand because of what he did to Dumb. They went back and forth discussing whether to complete the dare or not. Rover actually ended up calling off the dare but during a commercial break Dieter convinced everyone to let him try. Dieter did a couple short spins of the drill, screaming both times. He then ended up drilling almost all the way through and broke the drill bit in the process. He tried to get the rest of the way through but ended up drilling all over his hand. Rover told him to stop but Dieter wanted to complete the dare. He changed the drill bit out and was testing it out but the show was over and he didn’t do any more drilling. Dieter was angry, threw his headphones down and walked out of the studio.
