11/5/09 - Death Cab for Cutie, Luc Robitaille, Kellan Lutz

6:36 - The Tricked-Out, Motorized La-Z Boy
In Proctor, Minnesota, a guy was arrested for drunk driving. The twist was this: he wasn't driving a car, but a specially made, motorized Laz-Z Boy CHAIR!  Fascinated, the boys called up the city's police chief. He revealed that the drunk guy didn't create the chair himself; that the chair complete with a a lawn mower engine, stereo, headlights, and cup holders; and that the the police department had tried to auction the chair on eBay (bidding was up to $43,000 before the La-Z Boy company made eBay take it down for trademark reasons).   Bean and Kevin wanted to get ahold of dude who originally made it - they want to drive one from LA to Minnesota!

7:09 - Robert Hilburn
The LA Times music critic dropped in to promote his new book Corn Flakes With John Lennon, in which he reminisces about his personal experiences with some of the major artists that he has interviewed. Like Michael Jackson and Bono.  

7:43 - Twilight's Kellan Lutz
The actor who plays Emmett in the Twilight movies talked about New Moon and how he deals with all the crazy Twi-tards.

8:12 - Death Cab for Cutie
Ben and Nick came into the studio and talked about their single for Twilight: New Moon, called "Meet Me on the Equinox". The 2 played an acoustic version of that live, as well as "I'll Follow You Into the Dark".  They were also subjected to Psycho Mike's parody version of that song, called "I'll Follow You When You Fart".  After just the first verse, Ben joked that he need to hear any more of it.  Kevin offered to burn him a CD of it for him to keep.  Death Cab will be playing their song live at Hollywood and Highland with some other bands as part of a Twilight event tomorrow night.

8:55 - Ralph Showbiz Beat
The boys were furious at Harvey Levin.  They heard that TMZ had gotten ahold of the Carrie Prejean masturbation video but DIDN'T share it with them! So in place of the Showbiz beat, they called Harvey up and chastised him mercilessly.  He still refused to send it to them though.

9:16 - Luc Robitaille
The LA King talked about being inducted into the NHL Hall of Fame, the difficulty of making it in the NHL (he was drafted 171st!), how his own kids don't care a whit about hockey, and his inside knowledge of the infamous Marty McSorley stick incident (he heard that someone on the Candadiens had convinced the equipment security guard to look away so they could check out the sticks before that game).  You have a chance to meet Luc yourself at a Hall of Fame charity gala on Dec. 5.
