With Woodsy out of town Mikey’s pal CB fills in along with another live studio audience. Facebook went down and LOB can’t decide if it’s good or bad. Tech Talk leads to Mikey’s home electronics woes. The 10 most expensive cities in the United States list have some surprising cities on the list. Mikey wishes he went to college mainly for the social interaction and getting shoved and bumped around campus. CB tells how he met his wife and his foot in mouth mess ups that luckily didn’t hurt his chances. Woodsy calls from Texas, his throat sore from screaming at the Kings of Leon show the previous night. The Kid worries that CB is trying to take his job while he’s busy playing in a golf tournament for a great cause and you can help out by going to www.holtonsdriveforsids.com Mikey remembers girls he couldn’t close the deal with. Lucky for him Rebecca did all the deal-closing moves. Fake Disaster drills on Twitter lead to talk about the big 80’s made-for-TV movie “The Day After”. CB hits on all the sports stories pretty flawlessly even with the daunting WoS theme playing in the background. Two people who best represent average Americans speak out for us: Stephen Colbert and Lady GaGa. The cast compares modern fears to older fears and the bizarre lengths our parents went to for disciplining us. Tina Fey is above Facebook and Twitter which makes Mikey admit his insecure tweeting ability and praise LOB’s talent for tweets. Classic rock is what Tom Tom Girl is all about during Tom Tom Tunes. A good conversation takes place about public schools versus private schools at a kid’s young age. The topic jar asks about guilty pleasures and LOB loves the Jersey Shore, Mikey (big secret) loves Miley Cyrus and once again tries to play her music to prove his point but no one is buying. Wahoo! Got you all in check! CB tells about fishing for Wahoo and then what happens when eating them without being put on ice. LOB is accused of cheating during Radio Charades. Hanging unmentionables out to dry for all to see is debated. Rather than her song lyrics, Katy Perry’s spot on Sesame Street was pulled because of her eye popping cleavage. Bieber audio of the brat’s mad acting skillz are off da hook, dawg! Jay loves a “loose slot” but his remark goes unnoticed, so he follows it up with another creeper remark! Mikey tells about being in a coffin for 3 days as a radio stunt. I got me a bean bag it sits about twenty, so hurry up and bring your jukebox money! Love Sack, baby Love Sack! Turns out Madonna’s daughter is like, an annoying like, spoiled brat. Who would have thunk it?
