D&D - Sept 14, 2009

I listened to "Mike in the Morning" on WRIF for a short time in 2008 while D&D were off, after Drew left but before Jamie joined the show. I really didn't care for Mike Clark's voice or his sense of humor, so I ended up switching to CDs and AM talk radio. Thus I know of Jamie Samuelsen, but I hadn't heard him on the air before today. My first impression was that his voice reminds me of the guy who records a lot of the infomercials for the WCSX webstream. Getting past that, the sports reports (which I still don't think are a really integral part of the show) seemed a little longer and more in-depth, perhaps reflecting Jamie's long sports background. Maybe his experience in radio at WRIF will allow him to be a bigger part of the show than just the "sports guy" -- not saying Jason didn't, but he wasn't really the catalyst for too many segments. Then again, with Jeff and Bill plus Rudy, Nicole, Jim, and now Jamie, we may run into the "too many cooks in the kitchen" problem that someone on the Yahoo group mentioned a few months ago.

On to today's show -- topics ranged from celebrity news (Susan Boyle butchered covered a Rolling Stones song, and unsurprisingly we find out that Michael Jordan and Kayne West are pricks and Serena Williams is a bitch) to local news (another metro Detroit mom drove drunk with her kid in the car, Jeff read off some more local Missed Connections, an anti-abortion protester was killed in Owosso, and the guys had a discussion about the best burger in Detroit) to rapid-fire, headline-style, FARK'ish stories (videotaping folks' asses will get you arrested, Brits like to drink, and check your baby before you leave the hospital). Rudy chimed in a few times; dismissing the soccer fanboy-ness, he had a point about wearing the wrong team's jersey (either in public or to a game). And though he did break a Man Law when he referenced Princess Di, he made up for it by almost running Nicole over during the Texting While Driving experiment. Featured segment were, as chosen by the bottom-feeding, scum-sucking algae eaters over at WCSX.com:

1. JEFF AND HIS SEXY SHOES (pic) - Jeff decided to bring "sexy back" and wear his black shoes with white socks to work on Monday...all the ladies in the house say "Hell Yeah!" (and by "house" we mean the ladies at the shuffleboard tournament in Boca Raton, Florida)
2. CRIS COLLINSWORTH LIKES HIS LADIES YOUNG (video link) - Every now and then someone will dig up a long lost video clip from the past that's so amazing in every way that you have to watch it multiple times to confirm it's real. This is one of those videos. Former Bengal Cris Collinsworth gives the average joe an insight of what it's like in the dating scene for a pro athlete some 20 years ago...Check out the video here!
3. WELCOMING JAMIE SAMUELSEN (podcast) - The D&D show welcomes Jamie Samuelsen with his first sportscast! We are glad to have Jamie with us, and we think you’ll agree! [audio from Chris Collinsworth video in here as well]
4. IS NICOLE FULL OF CRAP? (podcast) - Nicole Salem is moving into a condo that doesn't allow dogs. Nicole claims that she has a "medical condition" and has even gotten a DOCTORS NOTE sayingthat Lacy the Chihuahua is a therapy dog. Really Nicole?!
5. AN AFFAIR DILEMMA (podcast) - A guy gets away with cheating on his wife with one of her co-workers. 4 years later - that co-worker is now his wife's boss! Does he have to confess?
6. BAD BIRTHDAYS (podcast) - Can you imagine your birthday being on September 11 - a day that many consider one of the most tragic days of all time? What are some other bad birthdays?
