Huggie’s Marriage, Rabbi Goldstein and Barry Shabaka Henley

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 1:57 pm

Huggie, the Chicago board-op, is always hard up for money. He kissed a gay man for $50 and put One Eyed Bri’s glass eye in his mouth for $40. Duji mentioned that he should donate sperm to make extra money. Rover did the math and he could make an extra $800/month donating sperm. He ran the idea past his wife and she was not happy with the idea. Instead of worrying about him having to degrade himself to make them extra money, she is worried about the illegitimate children that may result. Huggie went into his whole marriage history. He met his wife at a Jewish church function in high school. They dated all through high school and college and got married right after they graduated college. They have been married for five years. Huggie said it has been so long since they’ve had sex, he can not remember the last time. The crew pretty much all told Huggie that his marriage is only going to last as long as his wife wants it to.

Gonzo Judaism: A Bold Path for Renewing an Ancient FaithRabbi Niles Elliot Goldstein was on the show this morning. Rabbi Goldstein, the founding rabbi of The New Shul in New York City’s Greenwich Village, talked quite a bit this morning about both the recent incident with Mel Gibson and also the state of Judaism as a whole. T.J., the sports guy, who is also Jewish, talked a lot with the rabbi about the anti-semitics. Rabbi Goldstein said he does think Mel Gibson is anti-semitic but is not concerned with him. He said he is a lot more concerned about how the Jewish community is not more pro-active and how they just react to everything that happens, just like the current Mel Gibson situation. The rabbi has just written a new book, “Gonzo Judaism”, which is inspired by the writings of Hunter S. Thompson. Should make for an interesting read.

Miami Vice: Season One & TwoBarry Shabaka Henley, who plays Lt. Martin Castillo in the new Miami Vice movie, was also on the show this morning. Henley has been in lots of movies and on several television shows, including playing a jazz club owner, Daniel, who is killed by Tom Cruise in the movie Collateral. Rover asked Henley about his Miami Vice co-star Colin Farrell, who supposed checked into rehab the day after they finished filming on the movie. Henley said he never saw Farrell drinking or using drugs but that he imagined that the stress of the shoot and also the very dangerous stunts Farrell was doing could cause someone to use drugs or alcohol. Miami Vice opened as the number one movie last weekend, so I’m sure Henley and the rest of the cast are in good spirits right now.

Violent Video Games, Sulfur Theories from Dieter and Dave Navarro

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 6:37 pm

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City StoriesThe crew got on a long discussion of video games after Rover brought up a Federal Judge who has thrown out a Minnesota Video game law which fined youths under 17 $25 for attempting to rent or buy a Mature (M) or Adult Only (AO) rated game. The law was scheduled to take effect Tuesday. Rover and Dieter both agreed that it is the parents responsibility to watch what their kid is doing/playing. Duji thought the law was a good idea although she did say parents need to watch out after a caller ripped into her. The show’s Memphis board operator IM’ed Rover and said his mom calls him for Grand Theft Auto tips and actually asked him how to get the hookers. Story

After a discussion of the De Beers group and their diamond cartel, Dieter brought up the point that he thinks there is a sulfur cartel forming. He claims that one of president George W. Bush’s best friends owns 90% of the world’s sulfur and in a clever ploy is going to sell it all back to different countries once global warming increases because sulfur cools the earth. Now sulfur is a rather adundant element, do I seriously doubt any one person could possibly own 90% of the world supply. Several science students also called in to say that sulfur’s cooling effect is really minimal and would not combat increased global warming anyway. I have no idea where Dieter comes up with these things.

Dave Navarro was on the show this morning. I think that means every single person on the show Rockstar: Supernova has now been on Rover’s Morning Glory. Rover asked Navarro about attitudes amongst the bandmates. Navarro claims that he didn’t notice any and that he has known all three guys for a long time. Rover also asked a few questions about Navarro’s pending divorce from Carmen Electra but he didn’t really get any solid responses. He then asked if Navarro was gay to which he responded, “You heard that about me?”. Dieter says if you search for “bisexual musicians” on Wikipedia that Navarro comes up. Jonathon then sang a new version of “Jane Says” by Jane’s Addition which revolved around Carmen Electra dumping Navarro and wanting to hook up with Jonathon. Dave called him out because Jonathon had the chords to the song backwards.

Dieter Breaks Jonathon’s Guitar, One Eyed Bri Stalks Girls and MTV’s 25th Anniversary

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 3:02 pm

I thought it was kind of strange that there was not much said about the Dieter and Jonathon helmet incident from Friday. Jonathon came on the air this morning and began to play a song. Midway through the song you just hear a scuffle and then things getting smashed and a bunch of yelling and screaming. Dieter ripped the guitar out of Jonathon’s hands and smashed it into pieces in the studio. Rover and Duji were both freaking out. Rover got hit in the head with a pole in the ensuing melee and Duji began to cry afterwards. Jonathon was very upset as this particular guitar was given to him by his father, who passed away when Jonathon was 12 from Leukemia. I felt really bad for Jonathon, although I would have thought he would have seen some sort of payback coming knowing Dieter. Jonathon left the studio for some time and said he didn’t know if he would be returning, although Rover eventually talked him into coming back up.

Rover brought One Eyed Bri in to talk this morning after he received an email from a women with a transcript of a very strange instant messenger conversation between Bri and herself. She had talked about holding her cat and Bri asked if he could be held like that too plus a bunch of other random weirdness. He of course started the whole thing off with his patented, “I only have one eye but that is all I need to see you are smokin” line.

Beavis & Butt-head - The Mike Judge Collection, Vol. 3Today is the 25th Anniversary of the launch of MTV. Rover went through MTV’s 25 Greatest Moments. These included several Madonna and Michael Jackson videos, the launch of “Real World”, Eric Clapton Unplugged and several MTV Music Awards moments. Beavis and Butthead and Jackass were two shows that also made it into the top 25 moments.

Show Moving Back to Cleveland!!, Search Party Recap and Jim Shows off his Karate skills

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 2:56 pm

Rover’s Morning Glory is moving back to Cleveland! Rover made the official announcement this morning, although he said he has known for a while. Chicago just has not been a good fit for the show and the ratings have suffered in that market as well. The show will be moving back to Cleveland although they are going to be broadcasting from Chicago (though no longer on the air there). I’m sure many people in Cleveland are celebrating this move.

The Detroit search party sounded like it got pretty wild. Duji’s whole family was pretty much there and Duji actually had to ask DJ Jazzy Jim if he had sex with her sister. I guess her sister showed up wearing Jazzy Jim’s T-shirt the next morning or something. Duji had said that she had some people lined up that wanted to sleep with Dieter, though there were no stories about it, so it must not have happened. Jonathon and Cortney were together there and after making out with another woman, Jonathon got a threesome.

Rover and DJ Jazzy Jim has been going back and forth for months about Jim’s supposed Karate skills. For those of you that have been listening for a while, you will remember when Rover got a whiffle ball bat and Jim tried to disarm him. Rover said that Jim just threw him to the ground but its kind of hard to tell what really happened since they didn’t take any video. They finally got a sparring match set up and two guys from a local Dojo came over. Jim sparred with a blue belt (middle belt ranking) for two minutes while a second degree black belt observed. It sounded like Jim did pretty well on the air and the black belt commented that his kicks and punches were good. He said there was no way he was a black belt though, so Rover is victorious in this battle, which he needed after losing the Danica Patrick arguement to Dieter.

From Detroit: Mary Jo Sanders, Mike Freeman and Lisa Guerrero

Filed under: The Show — Justin @ 2:51 pm

Mary Jo Sanders, WIBA Junior Welterweight title holder, was on Rover’s Morning Glory this morning. Mary Jo is from Detroit and is going to be at the Clutch Cargo’s tonight for the Miss Morning Glory calendar search party as a guest judge. Rover and Dieter both think Mary Jo is super attractive. Rover asked if she could beat him up, surprisingly she said no.

Bloody Sundays: Inside the Rough-and-Tumble World of the NFLMike Freeman, of ESPN, was on the show this morning. Mike writes a column for ESPN and has also written several sports related books. Rover asked Mike several questions about the Harold Reynolds situation. Harold is a black commentator for the “Baseball Tonight” segment on ESPN. He was fired for supposed sexual harassment and/or sexual involvement with several interns. Mike said Harold is a really great stand-up guy but that he had heard several rumors about him and various interns.

Lisa Guerrero, a sports broadcaster, was also on the show this morning. Lisa was a cheerleader for the Rams back in the 1980’s when they were based in Los Angeles. She was also on the TV show “Sunset Beach”. In 2003, Lisa began sideline reporting on Monday Night Football. Her performance was heavily criticized and she was eventually replaced by Michele Tafoya. Lisa appeared in the January 2006 issue of Playboy magazine as the cover girl. She is currently reporting on “The World Series of Pop Culture”.
