Hour 1
Patriots Tight End Rob Gronkowski is taking quite a bit of heat for his post-Super Bowl partying the other night. There are pictures of him dancing shirtless at a club circulating around the internet. Someone that had the measles attended the Super Bowl and they're now saying that as many as 200,000 people could have been exposed to it. A minor outbreak is expected and a bunch of cases have already been reported. Free Beer's mother-in-law is in town and he took her and his wife out to dinner last night. Unfortunately, they wanted to go to a restaurant that he hates because they always have really slow service. Last night was no exception.
Hour 2
Ellen gave away a car on her show recently and we checked out the video of it this morning. Unlike Oprah, she did it in a cool way and it actually seemed like she cared about the person. You can see that in the Video Reel. Crab Trap Johnny called in this morning, once again trying to get us to help him get a government loan for his crab trap invention. No matter how many pieces of advice we gave him, he shot all of them down and insisted he had already tried them. We learned this morning that BYU students know absolutely nothing about black people and Black History Month. Check out the video of a guy interviewing them in the Video Reel.
Hour 3
More details have emerged about Josh Hamilton's relapse night over the last few days. Someone apparently has a short video clip of Hamilton having sex in the bathroom at a bar the night of his relapse. Things aren't looking good for him. Zane shared with us this morning a hot new track from the multi-faceted band Kiss. Actually, the song is old, but he listened to it for the first time and felt like we needed to hear it. It was awful and just confirmed to us that anyone can write a Kiss-esque song. A listener sent us a list of self defense and safety tips that we talked about this morning. Right off the bat, there was controversy and disagreement on some of the things on the list.
Hour 4
One item on the list stated that if you get kidnapped and thrown in the trunk of a car, you should kick the tail lights out and stick your arm through the hole and wave for help. While talking about this, Producer Joe managed to drop a hilarious toothpick joke on all of us. Also, we decided to try and put this suggestion to the test and managed to get a listener to agree to bring their car over to the radio station for Joe to try and escape from. Because of Joe's hilarious joke, in the next segment we decided to relive some of the other awesome toothpick jokes from the past. We could have done a whole show of them! We closed the hour with Dumber Than Zane Trivia, worth $400 from Cat Footwear.
Hour 5
The time finally came for Producer Joe to climb in the trunk of listener Brandon's '07 Chevy Impala and try and kick his way out through the tail light. Check the website later this afternoon for the video to see how he did! We closed the show with a list of 10 of the most hated athletes and by telling what we learned today.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012
Hour 1
Zane started the morning by giving us an update on the Freshman girl's basketball season. Apparently there are many annoying things including rough contact on nearly every play and players trying to distract each other with annoying noises. Free Beer's wife woke him up last night to tell him that one of his fish was dying. This is the fifth or sixth time he's tried with this type of fish, so he's giving up on it now. We went over an article from TeleFlora that told us what the number of roses you send says about your relationship.
Hour 2
Zsa Zsa Gabor isn't looking so good these days. A photo of her was posted of her on her 95th birthday, which you can see in the Links section. Free Beer told us about how his parents are living the high life with their friends in Florida these days. They're going to luaus and parties on a daily basis! We talked once again this morning about Zane's Words With Friends skill. Boy Crazy Kayla has been playing a game against him and he can't manage words with more than three letters. Free Beer has been watching a documentary on Joe Namath over the last few days. He now feels pretty bad about making fun of the guy when he was hammered on TV when talking to Suzy Kolber years ago. It turns out he was just hitting rock bottom at that point.
Hour 3
We went over a list of 10 inventions that are on the way that seem pretty awesome. You can see the full list that we talked about in the Links section. Hot Wings told us about how he tough-talked a girl in the parking lot when leaving the radio station yesterday. The girl blocked the only exit and then left her car there. She came back and Hot Wings screamed her down for being an idiot and Steve witnessed the entire thing. Based on this, we took calls from listeners that have been in similar tough-talking scenarios.
Hour 4
While on the way to Indy last week for the Super Bowl broadcasts, we came up with an idea for what will be the next Joe stunt. We discussed it further on the air this morning and fine tuned it to perfection. He'll be doing this stunt on Friday morning. During the FBHW Report, we played the audio of both an idiot Giants fan and idiot Patriots fan. You can see both of them in the Video Reel.
Hour 5
We had a lot of talk today about end of the world scenarios and the Mayan calendar. There was a list floating around of the most likely ways that people believe the world will end. We were pretty surprised to believe that 7% of those surveyed actually believed that the world would end in exactly the same way as a famous Hollywood movie. People are dumb. There is the possibility of a big upheaval in the second most popular sport in America. The Big 10 may finally be interested in a playoff system, which will make a ton of people really happy. A bunch of videos have been posted on YouTube lately, which we believe is a viral marketing campaign for an upcoming movie. In each of the videos, you can hear strange sounds in the background that are unexplainable. I guess we'll find out! We closed the show with what we learned today.

Tuesday, February 7, 2012
Hour 1
We started the morning talking once again about Sketchy Andy, the slack liner who performed during the Super Bowl halftime show with Madonna. It turns out he's now going on tour with her! Free Beer had a bit of an embarrassing moment yesterday. His mother-in-law is visiting and she walked in while he was playing an extremely violent video game. In the game, he was beating a guy with a huge dildo. A guy in Montana really wanted to cross something off of his bucket list last week. He wanted to lead police on a high speed chase. He did just that and pretty much just got a slap on the wrist!
Hour 2
Gisele Bundchen, the supermodel wife of Pats quarterback Tom Brady, was heckled by Giants fans right after the Super Bowl. She lashed out, saying that her husband could not throw AND catch the ball at the same time. You can see the video of this in the Video Reel. Free Beer watched a show on National Geographic last night about a rare disease that has a 40 year old man trapped in the body of a 6 year old child. How the hell do things like this happen?
Hour 3
We checked out a list of 6 real people with mind-blowing mutant superpowers. On the list was a guy that could basically run forever, a guy that who cold had no effect on and a samurai that can cut a speeding bb in half! You need to check out the list in Links and the Samurai video in the Video Reel. The Bronx Zoo has suggested what may be the worst gift idea for Valentines Day ever. They want you to buy a Madagascar hissing cockroach for your significant other. That's awful. We watched the video of the awful accident that happened at a circus in Saginaw, MI. A guy was attempting a jump on a motorcycle and no one bothered to check to make sure that there were no low-hanging cables. You can see that in the Video Reel. Kobe Bryant passed Shaq last night on the list of all-time scorers in the NBA. This reminded us of the beef that they had a while back where Shaq freestyled and threw Kobe under the bus. Zane then decided to go back to his hip hop roots and throw down his own freestyle.
Hour 4
Puerto Rico is apparently having a bit of a cash flow problem and they have come up with a plan to bring more cash to the region. They are overrun with iguanas and plan to sell the meat to the US. While talking about this, Dr. Stupid shared a story about an illegal iguana hunt he went on while in Honduras. Things turned on him quickly. Zane told us this morning that he started taking a Cross Fit class at the Y. He's awful at it and even the one-armed guy is better than him! Last week, we had to delay Dumber Than Zane Trivia because of all of the guests that showed up while we were broadcasting from Radio Row at the Super Bowl. We got our contestant Dan on the phone today so he could finally take Zane on for $1,600 from Cat Footwear.
Hour 5
NBC has apologized for the Super Bowl performance in which M.I.A. gave the middle finger to the camera on Sunday. Because the performers all had to sign contracts, it looks if there is going to be a fine, it'll fall in the hands of M.I.A. A listener emailed in with a very complicated situation he was in that he needed advice on. He met his fiance's sister for the first time over the weekend, but learned that he may be the father of her child! We closed the show with Zane telling us a story of how he slept right through about 15 phone calls to him about his sick daughter and by telling what we learned today.

Monday, February 6, 2012
Hour 1
Zane has jumped on the Words with Friends bandwagon but, unfortunately, is not very good at hit. He keeps getting schooled by the priest at his church who is apparently a savant. Free Beer told us this morning about another interaction he had with his best homeless friend outside of the building. The dude basically jumped in front of his car a few blocks from the station and even though Free Beer drove around him and kept going, the guy still ran over to the radio station door to try and grift him.
Hour 2
We talked quite a bit about the Super Bowl this morning. All in all, we thought it was a great game and much more exciting than some of the snooze fests from the past. While we were broadcasting live from Radio Row at the Super Bowl last week, there was one comedian making the rounds that really wanted to be on the show. We denied him every single time he walked up, yet it didn't keep him from trying. We played the audio from Friday's show of Zane trying numerous times to pronounce the comedian's name. He was unsuccessful every time.
Hour 3
Steve's girlfriend got in to town on Saturday and starts work here at the radio station today! It's a crazy case of worlds colliding for him. We revealed this morning the incident from Friday's show that made Free Beer completely lose his train of thought and start cracking up towards the end of the show. Zane was trying to tell him that one of the guests was ready to come on, but did so in a unique way that only Zane could do. There's a new show on National Geographic called Doomsday Preppers that we checked out the promo for this morning. These people seem absolutely crazy! You can see the promo in the Video Reel.
Hour 4
The halftime show from the Super Bowl was a big topic of discussion on this morning's show. As usual, we were left with a "it was alright" attitude towards the whole thing. It'll soon be forgotten. The FBHW Report this morning was focussed solely on the game as well, and we also talked at length about commercials from the game that we liked and hated. A bunch of listeners called and emailed in to give their opinion on the Clint Eastwood Chrysler ad.
Hour 5
Hot Wings was described on today's show of "dadding out", a process in which he relates everything back to being a father. He had one quote in particular that sounded like our impression of him, so we each repeated it and made a montage out of it. OK Go's latest video was released this weekend, which you can see in the Video Reel. Free Beer and Zane were pretty convinced that it was fake, even though nearly everyone else thought it was real. We closed the show by once again checking out video of the anchorwoman who loves sausage, which is in the Video Reel, and also telling what we learned today.

Friday, February 3, 2012
Hour 1
The show was live from Radio Row at the Super Bowl in Indianapolis this morning, so the first hour of the show was best-of. The segments played were: Don't you know who I am calls, Adding a chick to the show and Defending the home with a bed post.
Hour 2
We're live from Radio Row in Indianapolis again this morning! Yesterday was a new experience for the guys and they recapped some of the events of the day. A listener called in to tell us about an interaction he had with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who was a guest on the show yesterday. The NBC television broadcast yesterday struck the guys as a bit odd and they decided to compare some of the elements of that show to their own. We wrapped the hour up by replaying audio from the Jay Mohr interview yesterday.
Hour 3
While coming into radio row this morning, Zane noticed all the past Super Bowl Banners. He wondered what was up with using all the Roman numerals. Enough with it already. Hot Wings was totally wrong about Donald Trump's endorsement. Oh well, you can't win them all. While walking into the hotel this morning the guys passed Boomer Esiason and Zane said hi like he was an old friend. Boomer acted like they were friends for years. It's interesting to see what other shows are doing for their Super Bowl coverage. It's especially interesting to see what the NFL Network is doing. After the show yesterday we had a chance to interview former Bills coach Marv Levy. We took a listen to that today.
Hour 4
Kim Kardashian has a new love interest in her life! You might be surprised to learn who it is. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen sent an email urging friends and family members to pray for a Patriots victory in the Super Bowl. She's a little upset that the email was made public. In the FBHW Report today, we highlighted some of the key points in Madonna's Super Bowl presser and Florida's Governor being tricked by a Daily Show reporter. We can't understand how that even happened. Josh Hamilton is in the news recently. He has been sober for a really long time, but recently fell off the wagon. What a shame.
Hour 5
To start our final hour live from Indy we interviewed former Steelers quarterback Mark Malone. He broke down what he felt were the keys to the game. After Mark, we got to interview Lieutenant colonel Greg Gadson. He is the honorary captain for the New York Giants. We talked to him about his life after his injury. After What Hot Wings Thinks we had a surprise interview with comedian Frank Caliendo. We wrapped up the show by figuring out what we are going to do for next year's Super Bowl and what we learned. We'll be back in studio on Monday.

Thursday, February 2, 2012
Hour 1
The show was live from Radio Row at the Super Bowl in Indianapolis this morning, so the first hour of the show was best-of. The segments played were: Sex clause in the prenup, Never date someone who ______ and Dudes who get beat up by girls.
Hour 2
We kicked off the morning discussing the hotel we stayed at last night and how even though it's only nine miles from where we're broadcasting, it was still a fiasco getting there. Scooter at 94.3 The X in Knoxville sent us a complaint call that he recorded with a fussy listener. He broke down the demographics in Knoxville for us and we definitely learned something!
Hour 3
We played Donovan McNabb's recent comments on Tom Brady and whether he thought he was the greatest of all time. We also checked out John Legend's Tim Tebow song and got a kick out of it. Pfizer recently recalled a ton of birth control pills because they're basically ineffective. That's gonna suck pretty bad for people who were counting on them! After playing some audio of a guy that was singing his drive-thru order at a restaurant, we decided to get some listeners on the phone for the You don't have to yell challenge. Mission failed. It didn't go well.
Hour 4
Facebook filed for their IPO yesterday and will soon be traded on the stock market. We broke down how much a bunch of different people will make from the IPO and were all pretty sick with the ridiculous numbers. Jay Mohr stopped by this morning while we were on radio row and we got a chance to talk to him for a bit. He busted out his Tracy Morgan impression which was really funny. In the very next segment, both Dick Vermeil and Curt Schilling also stopped by. They were both great interviews as well.
Hour 5
We played the audio that Mit Romney is taking some heat over this morning. He said that he wasn't that concerned with the poor and it's being taken all out of context. What he said made complete sense. After some technical difficulties, we were finally able to get NBA legend Kareem Abdul Jabbar on the phone to talk about his new book and DVD set. If you missed any of the interviews, you can hear them on the Audio page. Talk to you on Friday when we're live from radio row again!

Wednesday, February 1, 2012
Hour 1
Zane listened to a sports radio show yesterday that was broadcasting live from the Super Bowl. He commented on how the host, Chris Russo, talks at a pace that is nearly unlistenable. He also commented on his butchering of the English language. Men's Health put out a list of 8 foods that you should eat everyday in order to live healthy. The list was then compared to Joe's space diet. Needless to say, there were some minor differences.
Hour 2
Steve's life is set to change in just a matter of days. Today is his girlfriend's last day at her current job before she packs up and moves 700 miles to live with him! Talking about this got us on the topic of past living with girlfriend experiences. We watched the video of a 11 or so year old kid and his invention of the self-wedgie machine. His machine needs some tweaking, however, because it didn't work as planned. You can see that in the Video Reel. We went over a list that was published recently of the 99 most desired women in the world. For many of them, we had to do Google image searches because we had no idea who they were.
Hour 3
Listener Jimbo emailed in because he needed some advice on his current relationship. His wife is much older than he is and she doesn't want kids, but he does. Also, her kids are now having kids, making him a step-grandfather at age 30! A bunch of listeners called and emailed in their advice for him. Intern Boy Krazy Kayla's life once again took center stage this morning. She told us about how she's currently dating two different guys and is trying to decide if she'd like to further the relationship with either one, or just call it quits.
Hour 4
Based on the previous segment, Boy Krazy Kayla's sister emailed to update us, as well as a former bitter intern. Steve was super excited to find a news story about a parasitic twin, which you can see in the Links section. A 3 year old kid will have to get surgery to remove the glob in his stomach that used to be his twin. That stuff is crazy. In today's FBHW Report, we focussed on the Florida primaries and also the possibility of a Paul/Ringo reunion at the Olympics. Because Steve's girlfriend is about to move in with him, we decided to scare him a bit with the call in topic "After we moved in together, I learned ______". We got a bunch of great calls on the topic and we're pretty sure he's nice and freaked out now!
Hour 5
We checked out the video of Kristin Bell on Ellen recently, talking about her sloth meltdown. Her husband freaked her out when he brought one of those beasts home and video taped it. You can see it in the Video Reel. We closed the show by talking about how Justin Bieber's dad got in a bar fight, finding out what we have in common with happy and successful couples and by telling what we learned today. Talk to you tomorrow when we're live from Radio Row at the Super Bowl in Indy!

Tuesday, January 31, 2012
Hour 1
We talked more this morning about our upcoming broadcast from radio row at the Super Bowl this Thursday and Friday. We're pretty sure we'll be the only non-sports show there, but it gave us the opportunity to go over potential names of other shows that will be there. It appears as though it's mandatory to have some type of sports reference in your show name in order to be there.
Hour 2
Free Beer had car seat class last night. They went over all of the disaster scenarios that can occur if you hook that thing up wrong, including telling Free Beer that his baby could swallow hearing aid batteries. We were all introduced to the latest and greatest piece of technological gear that we can not live without from this point forward. It's called the GoJo and three of the five of us on the show definitely want one. You can learn all about it in the Video Reel. We went over a list of five money lessons we can learn from Grandma and Grandpa. It looks like our grandparents were quite a bit better with their money than we are. That's posted in Links if you want to check it out.
Hour 3
According to a recent British survey, women are better at parking a car than men. Hot Wings was astounded by this and refused to believe it. We took a bunch of calls from listeners, some that agreed and some that disagreed. Zane told us about his most recent home repair fiasco this morning. He was simply trying to fix a problem with his toilet, but ended up completely screwing something else up.
Hour 4
Based on Zane's home repair disaster, we asked for listeners to call in and tell us how their small project became a much larger one because of a screw-up. We got quite a few calls from people who had screwed up their house in one way or another. In today's FBHW Report, we played the audio of Obama singing Al Green and also the audio of Mit Romney singing. One was good, one wasn't so great. We closed the hour by playing some of the audio for our big Super Bowl broadcast and also by reminiscing about a time that Zane didn't make it to the bathroom in time and the awkwardness that followed.
Hour 5
We decided to bring back one of our favorite call-in segments on the show today when we asked listeners to call in and tell us why they were in big trouble today. We got a bunch of calls on this, but learned that most of the calls were pretty serious and depressing. We closed the show with a double round of the game Who/What/Where. Talk to you on Wednesday.
Monday, January 30, 2012
Jan. 30, 2012 2:00 am
Monday, January 30, 2012
Hour 1
We're pretty excited about our upcoming broadcasts from radio row at the Super Bowl this Thursday and Friday. Zane presented the idea that we actually dress like big boys for once, instead of the t-shirts and hoodies that we usually wear. Zane told us about an interaction he had with a woman at IHOP yesterday morning. The woman was being very rude and talking down to a server and he put her in her place! We played a game this morning where we tried to guess whether or not people were still alive from past Super Bowls.
Hour 2
We checked out some crazy videos from the Winter X Games from the weekend. One guy made an attempt at a double back flip on a snowmobile and had a devastating crash. Another guy successfully landed a front flip on his snowmobile. You can see both of those in the Video Reel. Be sure to check out the crazy optical illusion that is posted in the Links section of the website. It'll blow your mind! We confirmed once again this morning how boy crazy intern Kayla is. While talking about snowboarder and skateboarder Shawn White and a trick he invented, she said "he can grab my melons anytime". He's now been added to Kayla's crush flow chart. We saw the pictures of Christina Aguilera performing at Etta James' funeral from the weekend. Take a look at them in the Links section and try to figure out what is dripping down her leg in the photos. Strange.
Hour 3
There's a funny video in the Video Reel of a press conference that didn't really go as expected. Right in the middle of the press conference, which was being held at a bus stop, a bus took the turn a bit too close and crashed. The bus driver hopped off the bus and started screaming people down. Fran Drescher recently revealed that she believes she was abducted by aliens when she was younger. Her ex husband believes he was as well. We asked for listeners to call in if they believe they had been abducted, but surprisingly, we got zero calls. We went over a list from Redbook of the five things that men want women to wear more often. All of the things on the list seemed pretty spot on, but all were dependant on the woman being able to pull it off well.
Hour 4
Producer Joe told us about his fancy new space diet for the week. He's in the middle of a weight loss contest with some friends and this morning, he had to drink a glass of salt water. Also, he won't eat any solid foods for the next three days. In today's FBHW Report, we talked about Kim Kardashian's newest crush and the voicemail message that Liam Neeson recorded for a fan. We closed the hour going over a list of all of the things that you can bet on in the Super Bowl this year. You can see that list in the Links section.
Hour 5
We learned this morning that we have lost a listener for good! Someone got really fussy during our discussion about things men want women to wear more often and decided to voice her opinion. Oh well. We checked out a video of a girl that can repeat any word backwards, immediately after hearing it correctly. You can see this great bar trick in the Video Reel. We closed the show with some discussion about a big guest that we unfortunately won't get to interview at the Super Bowl and by revealing what we learned today.

Friday, January 27, 2012
Hour 1
Zane met a retired football player and former contestant on Survivor last night at his daughter's basketball game. It turns out that Gary Hogeboom coaches JV basketball at his daughter's school! Nintendo is planning to launch their new console, Wii U, this year in time for the holiday shopping season. Zane mentioned how he knows he's getting old because he can't keep up with the crazy-fast games that his son plays on his XBOX 360. After just five minutes of watching, he has to lay down and take a nap.
Hour 2
There is apparently a new way to stop a nosebleed. A doctor has announced recently that if your nose starts to bleed, you should shove cured pork up there and it'll stop the bleeding. This conversation got pretty gross and we were all shocked that Free Beer was participating and not laying on the floor, passed out in the fetal position. A 65 year old woman in Florida wasn't about to let someone break in to her house. As the guy was walking across her front lawn, she pulled a gun on him. Joe managed to track her down and we talked to her on the air. You can see the news story in the Video Reel.
Hour 3
While you're in the Video Reel, you have to check out the video of the insane snowmobile crash from the Winter X Games last night. How this guy is not dead is beyond our comprehension. According to a recent study, moral attitudes have changed since 2000. People are more likely to cheat and steal now than they were just 12 years ago. We talked quite a bit about the Joe Paterno funeral and news coverage on the air this morning. We're still really surprised at all of the support he's getting, despite the one big mistake he made in not speaking up about Sandusky. During this conversation, the age-old Barry/Berry debate was someone revisited. Everyone is still holding their ground.
Hour 4
Hulk Hogan said recently that he was nearly the bassist in Metallica. He said that they contacted him, but it just didn't work out. We then read a quote from his autobiography in which he said he contacted them, but never heard back. Those are two very different stories. In today's FBHW Report, we talked about Gingrich's lie about character witnesses and all of the fireworks in the most recent debate. We checked out Lawrence Taylor's bizarre interview on Inside the NFL on the show this morning. We were shocked at how stupid this man is and how be basically admitted that he did not learn from his mistakes and has not changed in any way. You can see the interview in the Video Reel.
Hour 5
We decided to play an all-women's edition of Name That Blank this morning. Women have typically been better at this game then men, but today was an exception. We talked about the news story that's been all over the place about a girl who is hooked on chicken nuggets. She's eaten nearly nothing else since she was 2 years old and is 17 now. Not surprisingly, she's having some medical issues because of it. Talk to you on Monday morning!
