Hide your kids, hide your wife, Who Asked You? is chockfull of verbage on race, sex, beer, illegal downloading and plenty of curses... so... pretty much a run-of-the-mill show. We'll tell you today about the newest record holder for the world's strongest beer. No longer does it belong to the guys at BrewDogs who created "Tactical Nuclear Penguin". Now it goes to another company whose mission statement must say that it's out to develop a customer base of liver failure-patients. Anytime a beer has more alcohol in it than a fine whiskey, perhaps it's not really beer anymore. When the brewing industry itself is against brewing the beer, perhaps it's not really a beer anymore. Or when the company advises you drink it like a cocktail and not like a beer... I'm thinking it's not really a beer anymore.
Now onto something you can finger. Oh yeah... it's that alright! Call it the latest in geek chic. A computer mouse elegantly sculpted into the shape of a woman's genitalia. Complete with a perfectly positioned scroll wheel and a hidden 'spot' that rewards you by launching your favorite website or E-Mail when you press it. The mouse is a conceptual design right now. It doesn't seem to be for sale anywhere. But I'm sure so me company in the techno-porn industry will be happy to develop it into a real product. You can have a look at it for yourself below in the Show Links. I can't help but wonder, if this was for sale, how long it would be before some lonely guy surfing an adult webcam site late one night looked down at his "G Spot Mouse" and then tried to have sex with it. It would probably happen faster than the time it'd take him to get to the ER to have the stuck gadget removed.
Our big story of the show goes to a brother and sister in Alabama. The Dodson's were victimized by an attempted rapist who broke into the sister's bedroom and tried to assault her. When she screamed for help, her brother Antoine quickly raced to her aide. The perp got away, but when interviewed by the local news, Antoine Dodson sounded off about the event and has since become an Internet sensation for his comments. Some feel people like this shouldn't be put on the news. But isn't it worse to not let them have their say. Why should one victim get favored for a sound byte just because they're better spoken or dressed over the one who isn't? It was said that those like Antoine (i.e. those who have an Ebonics vernacular) reflect poorly on their community. Really? Seems to me like the guy that broke into their house and tried to rape an innocent young woman is the one doing that poor reflecting. In any case, the interview aired, people liked it and now Antoine is being heard by folks all over the world not just on the news, but on T-Shirts, ringtones and YouTube remixes. If only that rapist had a vagina-shaped mouse, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.
If he did have that mouse, perhaps he'd be using it to acquire movies from the Bureau. We've got a list for you today of the current most downloaded movies from it. We'll run down the top-10 then quiz you with a "Chase's Challenge" on what flick is getting the most torrent attention. Tune in and play along... don't cheat and Google it before though!
Perhaps that rapist that broke into the Dodson household is working for the National Weather Service now. The robotic voice that interrupts the TV and radio warning us all of impending weather related doom is part of a brand new segment we're introducing today inspired by Mr. Joe Pesci. This bit is an invention of Dennis' and will pop up from time to time on the show. And we encourage your participation too. Listen to the show, find out what the segment is about and if one of these moments happens to you, E-MAIL US and we'll include it in the next edition!
We're off next week, but brand-new episodes of the show return on August 23rd. And you can hear us the night before, live on ErrorFM as well. So run and tell dat home boy!
