I finally managed to carve some time out to listen! Yay!!
Sten, that suuucks about the balcony, but that is an awesome/funny story. You’ll always have that. It definitely sounds like one of those wonderfully awkward moments that ends up in a movie but are then somehow less believable.
As for Beiber, honestly, I say he’s earned is crash and burn. It’s not like there isn’t a trail of childhood stars that ruined their lives so long and so wide that it’s visible from space. I mean, seriously, how can he look at all those kids that wrecked their lives and think “Nah, that ain’t me!”
I mean, the guy had his home searched because he TP’ed someone’s house. During that search they found cocaine (or a “white powdery substance”) and then he was arrested for drunk driving and now he’s been deported to Canada for assaulting a limo driver. Who knows what trouble he’ll have gotten into by the time you guys record your next episode of the Hucklebug! He will probably have started hanging out with Toronto mayor, Rob Ford–video will surface of the two of them on King Street smoking crack with Ford’s meth dealer while they’re both on a bender. The two should be in a buddy comedy.
I do agree that the media is a bloodthirsty pack of seriously douchey wolves, but that should have given the Beeber Unit (or his handlers) even more motivation to keep clean. The icing on the cake of this whole story is that apparently a petition to deport Bieber back to Canada was started on Obama’s website–he’s got that deal where if a petition gets more than 100,000 signatures he’ll consider it. Well, it got over 100,000 signatures. You know, because we can’t get 100,000 people in the street to protest the NSA bullshit, but Bieber? “Fuck that kid,” says 100,000 Americans.
I care so little about him that I couldn’t even bother to open another browser tab and find out how to spell Biiiiber correctly.
I’m so glad you posted the Facebook update – I still thought you were on your Saturday schedule. Congratulations on having your life back, Stenns! I’m looking forward to the new season of HB.
Bet, are you going to do Olympic updates every week?
I will never understand why you apologize for long shows. You keep me sane during the horrible commute. Make the shows longer! More, more, more!
The balcony story is quite possibly the funniest thing I’m going to hear this year. It is THE quintessential pet story. I’m glad it ended well for you though, because then it wouldn’t have been a funny story.
NONE of you people get to complain about the cold or the snow unless you’re spending it here in Chicago. So many days below zero… one day we were the coldest place on earth. (-20 I think? Patrick – do you know?) We currently have over a foot of snow on the ground,and we’re supposed to get more this weekend.
So far, this year sucks very, very much.
I have a RIP – bless the poor olympic snowflake that died before it opened. It never got to become an olympic ring. Poor little Russian snowflake.
Yes – I’m posting a zillion comments so they get read. On the air.
The Pete – Word on the Bieber topic. I couldn’t agree with you more.
I loved Bet’s new favorite and the ensuing discussion. I laughed my ass off – thank goodness traffic was at a stand still. We HAVE gotten to this point. Let’s talk about our Doans pills and bunions!!
Here’s a topic for you: of all the “official sponsors” of the olympics, which is the silliest, and which is the most embarrassing? For example, I think it is down right embarrassing that McDonalds is the “official restaurant.” Do we really have nothing better to offer the world? I’m not sure yet which is the silliest – is there an official toilet paper?
