11/6/09 - Penn Jillette, Alex Borstein, and the Rock Version of Fireflies

7:12 - Adam Carolla: This Week in Rage

3. Queen's "We Are the Champions" - The Yankees won the World Series and played this cliche song. Adam pointed out that a.) Freddie didn't seem exactly like a sports fan; b.) the song is ancient now, at 32 years old; c.) and Freddie died of AIDS. Play something else already! 

2. The DC Sniper is finally being put to death next Tuesday - His lawyer arguing that he's too crazy for the death penalty. But isn't that the ideal situation to put someone down? He has no idea what's going on.  Plus it was a whole 7 years ago when that happened. Put him down already!

1. Adam was at a Blog World convention and saw thousands of mommy bloggers, writing about the joys of giving birth. Big f'ing deal - it's like 40 year old guys talking about discovering the joys of masturbation. "Shut up already, bitches!"

7:45 - The Fireflies Song - Psycho Mike's Rock Version
Lots of KROQ listeners are demanding the horrible, super-flimsy Fireflies song. So Dave came up with an idea: have Psycho Mike's band (Murder on the 405) do a serious rock version of it. They played the result. Everyone agreed that though the lyrics were still bad, it was much more tolerable. One of the band member's dad described it as "Judas Priest doing showtunes". Bean felt that if the Owl City version is swine flu, then Psycho Mike's version is the regular flu.

8:25 - Penn Jillette
The taller (and speaking) half of Penn and Teller  talked about the legal nightmare using live guns and ammo in their magic show when touring (especially when performing in the same show as George H.W. Bush in DC); new tricks in their show; and seeing Bono get bopped in the face with a microphone at U2's Vegas concert.  They are doing a brief, rare CA tour in Thousand Oaks tonight and Lancaster tomorrow. 

9:13 - Alex Borstein
The voice of Lois on Family Guy promoted the special episode this Sunday night at 8:30: Family Guy Presents Seth and Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show. Alex told about how Microsoft was excited to sponsor the show...until they actually saw it, were appalled, and backed out.  So it should be fun!

9:28 - Game: U2 Title Fight With Miss Cleo
Miss Cleo recently had a disasturous time giving clues in the Foo Fighter Title Fight game for the song "Time's Like These".  It was so magical that they had her back for this game - this time giving clues for BOTH contestants.  She followed through with more craziness, like thinking vertigo was a color, celebrating New Year's Day on Dec. 31st, and spitting out "you put it up in the clouds" for the phrase "(Bullets) In the Sky".  The boys ended up giving both the contestants the tickets.

Monday: highlights of Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew, people who got into a fight in a movie theater, Spencer Pratt the motivational speaker, and ESPN's Bill Simmons.
