Wake up, Sid Linsky!

Good morning, yes. Good morning, yes. Yeah. Wake up with Preston and Steve. And good morning, yes. And good morning, yes. And good morning, yes. Hello, everybody. WMMR Philadelphia. I think you're sleeping. I was keeping you one towel. Towels need sleepy.

I was keeping you on in my pillow. Please go away. Let me sleep for the love of God. You're listening to Preston and Steve on 93.3 WMMR with Preston Elliott. You will listen to every damn word I have to say. And Steve Morrison. Words are like bullets. Lost. Casey Boy. Lay off me. I'm starving. Kathy Romano. I want to destroy.

I'm just not the hero type. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. And now, Preston and Steve on 93.3 WMMR. Oh!

All right, then. All right, then. We're back. These voices are live. As we speak, we are in the President Steve's Studio at WMMR. Clearly, I got to warm up the mouth a tiny bit. We'll do that with the weather. Let's dive right in and take a look at what we have in store for today. Clouds. Studio. Studio. Sorry. That was quick.

clouds today. We're going up to about 67 degrees for our high temp. Tomorrow, we're looking at a high 79 degrees. Wow. Yeah, the week is looking pretty good. And then Wednesday, 77. The rest of the week is staying in that upper 70 range. It's a beautiful thing. Excellent.

Now, Preston and Steve's News Update with Kathy Romano. My day is Monday, it is April 21st. Good morning, Kathy. Good morning. In the news this morning, Pope Francis, whose time as head of the Catholic Church was noted for an everyman humility and outreach efforts to people of different backgrounds and faiths, has died at the age of 88, the Vatican confirmed. At 7.35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the House of the Father.

His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and his church, Cardinal Kevin Farrell said on Monday. The Pope made an appearance yesterday on Easter Sunday from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica following an earlier meeting with Vice President J.D. Vance.

Pope Francis was hospitalized for just over five weeks beginning in February of this year to address what the Vatican initially said was a respiratory tract infection for which he began receiving treatment. Four days after his hospitalization, the Vatican revealed that Francis had been diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia. He also experienced two episodes of acute respiratory failure in early March, according to the Vatican, that required non-invasive mechanical ventilation at night to help him breathe. Yeah, most of the people when he first got sick were...

saying he was not, I mean, without saying it, that this was the downward slope. This was the end, yeah. It was not looking good. But it was just, I mean, the timing, like he appeared yesterday and then this morning. Yeah, everyone thought, oh, wow, I guess he's back. But this was, I assume that was his...

Final push. Pope Francis was said to be alert and aware throughout the health episodes and occasionally posted messages on X acknowledging the good wishes sent his way. Pope Francis's respiratory health was a lifelong issue for him. He had part of one lung removed at the age of 21 because of a respiratory infection.

As he grew older, he began to experience gastrointestinal issues that led to a section of his colon being surgically removed in 2021 because of intestinal inflammation. He also began using a wheelchair and a cane in 2023 because of a strained knee ligament and small knee fracture that made walking and standing difficult for him. As the leader of the Catholic Church, Francis Castellanos,

Francis captured the imaginations of believers and non-believers alike with his populist style, giving the church's message of social justice far greater resonance than that of many of his predecessors. Have you guys... Have you been to the Vatican? Yes, I've been to the Vatican. Have you pressed it as well? No. Okay. Never been to Rome. Never been to Rome, all right. Yeah, it was a little... We were kind of...

not uh just turned off a little bit by the way the people acted there like i mean it is the vatican and i guess maybe it depends on you know if you're catholic or not but like the way that people were like running through the vatican and trying to take pictures oh they're disrespectful yeah a little disrespectful now we did go to a mass there which was um

that was a little, I mean, people still did have cameras out, but a little more reverent, you know, because it was quiet. You were trying to listen and, you know, there were so many people. So to hear anything, you really needed to, you know, pay attention. Kath, I've never been, but I've been to the St. Patrick Cathedral in New York City and it's the same exact thing. Like there's a full on mass going on and people are in the back like, hey, here's your Cheerios. Here you go.

I'm going to go to the shop right now. I'm going to get some rosaries. It's a tourist attraction. From what I understand, my dad went many times to France and said in the cathedrals there, they don't take that at all. They will pull your ass out. Oh, wow. Yeah.

All right, so the process by which a new pope is elected has undergone numerous changes with the current procedure, a combination of ancient traditions and modern updates. And pickleball, I heard. Wow. Yeah. Okay. So modern updates as recent as 2013. Steve, however, the essential ritual has remained largely unchanged for centuries. Okay, all right. I'm sorry. Except for the pickleball. Largely unchanged. Except for the pickleball. Except for the pickleball. Right. Pope Francis's death set into motion a series of formalized rites and observances that occurred during what is called the interregnum,

which begins upon the pontiff's passing and ends with the election of his successor. The period of time during which the papacy is vacant, also known as the sede vacante, Latin for vacant seat. The Pope's death is first ritually verified by the cardinal who runs the ordinary affairs of the Vatican city state during this time. A traditional nine, uh,

nine days of mourning then commences. This includes the Pope's funeral, which per tradition is held within four to six days of his death after the body lies in state for several days at St. Peter's Basilica. This also allows global dignitaries and heads of state to pay their respects and attend the funeral. It also, during this time, allows

The cardinals under the age of 80 who are eligible to participate are summoned to Rome to prepare for the secret conclave inside the Sistine Chapel to choose the next pontiff. A gathering that typically commences between 15 to 20 days after the pope's death. Guess I'm going to have to watch that movie now. Yeah. Yeah. You know, it's actually even a better movie, a movie called The Cardinal from the 60s. And it goes it goes really intricately through the whole process. It's pretty cool. But they are both are good.

So in other news, there were multiple assaults reported at Temple University this weekend on Saturday and Sunday evenings. Temple officials say that they have spent the day reviewing hours of footage, video footage, and are continuing to work around the clock to identify everyone involved in these unprovoked attacks.

Temple University's Department of Public Safety said that they are actively investigating three assaults that occurred Sunday evening. One assault involved a Temple student who did not sustain any physical injuries and did not require medical attention. The two others were involved juveniles. Temple University police made seven arrests last night and are continuing to pursue all leads connected to Saturday night's activity. Officials say that at 7 o'clock on Saturday, police officers from Temple University's Department of Public Safety responded to a large group of unsupervised

gathered around Broad Street and Cecil B. Moore. Officials say while the group was initially orderly, that changed throughout the course of the evening as the crowd became disorderly. Officials say one Temple student was arrested near Temple Towers and another student was arrested in the area of 12th and Montgomery. Arrests were made throughout the evening. Temple officials said given past gatherings in the area and the fact that this week...

With spring break for many local K-12 schools, there was a heavy police presence from the Temple University Department of Public Safety and the Philadelphia Police Department with additional teams of police officers and supervisors to supplement the on-duty shift. Police are still looking for people responsible for the assault on campus. Counseling is also being offered to Temple students. Anyone with information is asked to call 215-686-TIPS. In sports this morning...

Ball sacks are yelping. Ball sacks are yelping! What the f*** is that? The Phillies lost to the Marlins 7-5 in 10 innings yesterday afternoon at the ballpark. What the f***?

Javier Sonoya hit his first Major League home run, had five RBI, and the Marlins rallied for the win. The Phillies are in New York tonight as they open up a three-game series against the Mets in Queens. Aaron Nola will get to start at 7-10. The Phillies placed Brandon Marsh on a 10-day injured list because of a right hamstring sprain. His replacement on the injured list is retroactive to April 17th.

making him eligible to come off the list on the 27th. To fill his spot on the 26-man roster, the Phillies have called up Cal Stephenson from AAA Lehigh Valley. The three guys we had at spring break are not coming off to the greatest start for the Phillies this year. Brandon Marsh is not having a great season and he's on the injured reserve. Garrett Stubbs is playing in the minors and Jordan Romano has just been flat out terrible. So it's probably our fault. No, it's not. No, no, no.

The Union shut out Atlanta United FC over the weekend, winning 3-0 on Saturday night. The Union are now 5-1-3 and in fifth place in the Eastern Conference. Up next, we'll take on D.C. United at Super Bowl Park on Saturday afternoon at 4.30.

And the Eagles are still the Super Bowl champs. We've got that. And that's what I have for you this morning. All right, thank you very much, Kath. It's good to see you guys again. Welcome back. Good to see you. We had a week off, or some of us had a week off. Some had part of the week off. Kathy and Case were here for some of that. Yes, sir. But nonetheless, we return.

revitalized and ready to go. We do have plenty of things to dangle. Nice little carrots for you to grab at. We have 500, for our word of the week prize, $500 to Nebraska Brazilian Steakhouse to give away. Always a great prize. We will start stacking up the letters at the end of the program. Give that away on Friday. We're continuing to give away $1,000 a day. Five times a day, actually. So, $5,000 a day. Your chance to win the President Steve 20 money. First opportunity coming up at 8 a.m. We'll tell you exactly what you

We had a winner every day last week that we were in, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. That's awesome. I love that. It's a good feeling. Let's keep that streak going and we'll have a chance to snag the money later on today. We also have a couple of great guests on the program. Valerie Bertinelli. We're going to chat with her around 9 o'clock this morning. She is the new host of Bingo Blitz.

on Game Show Network. So we'll chat around 9 and then around 10 o'clock, John Larroquette's going to be joining us. Is this the first time we've ever talked to John Larroquette? I think it is, right? I think we may have like decades ago, Steve. I do remember mentioning and him commenting about being the narrator for Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That's right. But it was a long, long, long time ago. I'm sure he remembers. It'll be good to catch up.

So we'll chat with him around 10 o'clock, around the second opportunity to win $1,000 this morning with Preston and Steve's 20 Money. So we'll do that and see how things were during our time off and so on. But we've got plenty to get to. Let's take a quick break. And the Entertainment Report is on when we return. Stay with us.

Over 1,000 modded vehicles, bunch of stuff. All right. So the question that I have for you is this. What do the S-V-M-P stand for in R-S-V-P?

All right, let's see if we know the answer to that. Here's what you need to do. You got to text. How do we do this again? Yeah, yeah. How the hell do we do this? Oh, you text the word Zoom to 610-660-9333. We'll send you the link, and then you can click on that, and we'll see if you get on the air here with us. Got some good news. We're about a year away from having our phones back. All right.

At least we have a date now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm happy to hear about that. So text the word ZUN to 610-660-9333. We'll send you the link. Get on board. Birthdays today being the 21st day of April. Not a whole lot of them, but there's a really big one that makes up for all of them. It's Tony Danza's birthday. Tony Danza.

Ah, the great Tony Danza. Is this your father's worst day of the year, Nick? Well, Steve, that's a great question. It actually might be in October because Tony Danza is coming back.

He's coming to Souljoles in Rofo. Oh, wow. That's right. And we took my dad out for Easter yesterday, and I told him that I'm taking him to see Tony dance. And he was pleasantly surprised. You're not my son. We had Tony on at one point, and I told him a little bit of the story about my dad. He was pretty cool. He could not have been nicer. And Tony said something that left an impact on me, which was, I'd love to meet your dad sometime. Nice. Which is really sweet. You know, so like if my dad ever gets a chance to meet Tony dance, I'm sure. He's got a gun! Right? Yeah.

You know the irony in all this? He's out of guns! He loved the TV show Taxi. There you go. He couldn't stand who's the boss and whatever. All right. All right, well, Tony. The world can change. If the world can... He didn't like him. Nuh-uh. Who's the boss, but he liked him on Taxi? And if he can like him on another show, maybe you can like me none either.

I'm going to text him right now. Not Tony, my dad. Let him know that it's his birthday. He has been nominated, by the way, Tony Danza, for an Emmy and four Golden Globe Awards. How about that? He's 74 today. So take that. Actress Patti LuPone. Oh, you know what? Marvel. I'm going to give her this. Yeah.

Yeah, she was in it all along. So she is technically part of the Marvel MCU. She is kind of the Grand Dame of Broadway. She's won two Tony Awards, and she's won two Grammy Awards as well. So yeah, I really am not familiar. I saw her, and I'm like, oh, she looks familiar. I know one thing she does, and she's legendary for this, Preston. You talk about talking out of turn at...

shows and stuff like that or in religious ceremonies, she will stop a show dead in the middle and have people thrown out of the theater. Oh, no kidding? Oh, yes. She's legendary for it. Is she the mom in Life Goes On? She is. She doesn't stand for baloney. He doesn't stand for baloney.

Was she in that too? No. What did that have to do with it? Place the studio. I was ready to hit it before her when he was talking about she'll stop the show. She doesn't stand for baloney in a live. I don't stand for baloney. I still don't get it.

She just won't stand for it. She doesn't stand for baloney. I was going to do that, and then you jumped in with Life Goes On, which completely took my clip out of context. My clip was in context. He was saying Patti LuPone doesn't stand for baloney in the Broadway experience. Clips don't always make sense 100% of the time, but sometimes you just have to go, what did that mean? All right.

Patti LuPone is 76 today. Annie McDowell turns a year older. Groundhog Day, four weddings and a funeral. Her daughter is having great success right now. Annie McDowell turns 67 years old today.

James McAvoy's birthday is today as well. Yeah. We had a moment where we were buddying up with him for a little bit. Didn't really close it the way we wanted to. We wanted an in-studio, which could have been possible. He was in the area so much, but it never manifested. I think they own something here or at least rent something in the city. So his girlfriend is a friend of mine. He's phenomenal. She's from Delco and they come back here often.

It's just hard, like when you're, you know, to like constantly ask. Yeah, I get it. You know, and usually she'll give me, she's like, okay, you know, put the word in. He knows, here's who you should contact. And then that's when it all falls apart. We play the right way. Yeah. We play it nice and reserved and then they never show up. Right. So he turns 46 years old today. Phenomenal actor. Really nice guy too. Yes. The encounters that we have with him, he's been super duper nice.

It's also singer Iggy Pop's birthday today. Iggy Pop turned 78 years old. We've told the story many times. We got to see him reunite with the Stooges when Van got married, his first marriage. We were invited. There were a lot of famous people that were there as well. And Iggy Pop and the Stooges played at the reception. It was really cool. Every time you remind me of that, because that was one of my...

Coincidentally, that was one of my worst diarrhea experiences. Shut up. I didn't go to the wedding, you remember. No, I forgot. That's why you didn't make it.

Diarrhea, wow. And Iggy Pop. Inextricable. Yeah. He turns 78 years old today. It's also The Cure's Robert Smith birthday, or Smith's birthday today. Love The Cure. Turned 66 years old, and they just had a new record out not that long ago, and it's reinvigorated them. I think they're going to do another one at some point. I bought it. It's great. In case I think also it harkens back to this period. A little bit darker, but very similar. Is that right?

So he turns 66 years old today, Robert Smith. So I saw Jason Duggar. Is he a good Duggar or a bad Duggar? I don't know. He's not the kid toucher Duggar? He's 25, so I don't know. It says the 12th son on TLC's 19 kids and counting. I'm sorry. No, go ahead. They all begin with J. Yes. Hard to keep track. He's Lonnie. The J is silent. I mean, you can...

The one I could never get right is Ginger Duggar because they spell it Jinger. J-I-N-G-E-R just so they can stay with the J. There was one who had inappropriately touched the sisters. Yeah. And I forget which Duggar that was. It doesn't look like it was this one. Okay, so this Duggar's in the clear. Yeah, he had a lawsuit over home repairs dismissed. Oh, Jason Duggar did? Son of a bitch. He's 25 years old today. And then the last birthday, it's Rob Riggles.

birthday today. He's turning 55 years old and funny as hell. I was watching him do a show because he is former Marine and talking about the military man. He's kind of encyclopedic in his military knowledge. He's really impressive. So he turns 55 years old today. One last birthday.

It's Dr. Mike's birthday today.

Dr. Mike. Dr. Mike Strigliato of Fox 29 and Penn Medicine, a year older today. And we wish him nothing but the best because you know what? We love him. Love ya. Love ya. You know, and he's really upset about this phone line issue because he says it's hard for him to Zoom when he's driving in and he wants to get through and he can't. Not only that, he's up to his neck in work because he has a, like a, one of his nurse practitioners is...

never there and so he's holding down the fort and he's the proverbial nine plates on sticks spinning but Dr. Mike does it and keeps us healthy. Well he loves that kind of lifestyle believe it or not. He does yeah. Crazy busy so. Alright let's see. That's Dr. Mike's wake up music. Let's see if we can get an answer. What do the SVMP stand for in RSVP and via Zoom we are now checking in with Mark who's driving along. Hey Mark good morning buddy.

Hey, good morning. How you doing? Wonderful, bud. Nice to see you. All right. Do you happen to know what the SVMP stands for in RSVP?

I know what the whole thing stands for. Go ahead. It's Responde, Sibu Play. Sibu Play. That's exactly it. You got it, buddy. All right. One moment. Mark, we are going to give you a four-pack of tickets to the Driven to Serve Muscle Car Jeep and Truck Show. Maple Grove Raceway, Saturday, April 26th. Over 1,000 modded vehicles, jet cars, a monster truck car crush event.

track racing, raffles, and more. And it's all for a great cause, benefiting the Travis Manion Foundation. Tickets start at just $10. You can learn more at driventoserveshow.com. At the box office, Michael B. Jordan's Sinners won the North American box office this weekend. That's really good. The movie about twin brothers dealing with

Vampires, when they returned to their Mississippi hometown, debuted in first place with a whole of $45.6 million. A Minecraft movie slipped to second place. It made it over $41 million, followed by The King of Kings. And that was third place, rounding out the top five, where Rami Malek's The Amateur in fourth place.

and warfare in fifth place. So this happened while we were gone, but I wanted to mention this. Haley Joel Osment is apologizing after aiming an anti-Semitic slur at a police officer during his arrest last week at a California ski resort. Osment apologized for his use of the slur in a statement shared with People and the New York Post on April 18th after his arrest footage surfaced the day prior. He said, I'm absolutely horrified by my behavior.

Had I known I use this disgraceful language in the throes of a blackout, I would have spoken up sooner. The past few months of loss and displacement have broken me down to a very low emotional place. It did seem to be a bit of word salad because he called the same officer a Nazi.

Yes. He said, but that's no excuse for using this disgusting word from the bottom of my heart. I apologize to absolutely everyone that this hurts. What came out of my mouth was nonsensical garbage. Everybody just said that word and if we could all... Oh, wait. He said, I've let the Jewish community down and it devastates me and I don't ask for anyone's forgiveness, but I promise to atone for my terrible mistake. I was watching footage of him pressing, I guess, from another incident. He was attempting to get on a ski lift.

He didn't have any snowboard or skis with him. He had a GoPro camera hanging from his helmet incorrectly, and he was completely out of it. So he was blackout drunk? Blackout drunk. On April 8th, he was arrested for disorderly conduct for public alcohol intoxication and possession of cocaine at Mammoth Mountain Ski Area Resort.

in Mammoth Lakes, California. In the nearly two-minute footage, Osment says, I'm being detained. Later, when asked what his name is, he replies, I'm an American. Right? Well, we'll start with the broad. Yeah. And work our way down. I'm human. Yeah.

I'm American. Where do you live? Earth. Man, I feel bad for him. Obviously, he's totally messed up and this is an awful thing. It seems like he's atoning for it or whatever. But when you're blackout drunk, and it's happened a few times in my life, and there's just no memory of what happened to you during that time, it's terrifying. It's so scary to look back on those times in my life. Because I don't know, I guess in a weird way I can kind of relate to it. Because you have no recollection of the things that you said or did. Well, I had the fact, and we learned from that documentary, that he literally sees dead people.

Yeah. I mean, he is constantly haunted by the images of the dead. How do you process that? So later in the footage, an arresting officer holds up Osment's ID to other law enforcement officials and says, you do recognize him, right? That's the actor from Sixth Sense. Pay it forward. That's the kid actor. Oh, no. Don't bring up my IMDB. As they are purportedly driving to jail, Osment calls the officer a Nazi and then hurls an anti-Semitic slur about Jewish people.

And he said, you'll wish you treated me nicer. As he's escorted to jail in handcuffs by two officers, he says, good luck. Preceding his arrest in April, Osment was described as an unruly skier.

Uh, the incident is still under investigation. Uh, he will be arraigned on July 7th at the time of his arrest. Uh, he was days away from his 37th birthday. Um, and he has had previous run-ins with law enforcement back in, uh, dating back nearly two decades in 2018. Um,

He was involved in an argument at a Las Vegas airport on Super Bowl Sunday with police being called to respond to an unruly passenger. Then there was also a 2006 arrest for driving in the influence of alcohol and misdemeanor drug possession in an incident where he suffered a broken rib. Oh, my God.

The then 18-year-old Osment pleaded no contest and was sentenced to three years probation, 60 hours of alcohol rehabilitation programs, an Alcoholics Anonymous, and a $1,500 fine. Do you remember any of these? When they listed off the altercations with police, I'm like, I never heard of these. Just the first one. I do remember him initially, and we were going, oh, he's a teenager. He sees dead people. He sees dead people. He's got all these problems.

But I do remember that one. I don't remember the other one. So, yeah, but he's stumbled. I like him. He's got to figure it out. I hope he can correct the ship. Yeah. Are Kanye West and Bianca Sensori giving it another shot? The two reportedly spotted grabbing dinner together in Spain, in España. Ah. And they're apparently traveling together. Some people think that the two appearing together in public could point

Welcome, Kanye West, to España. We're hiddling their romance. He was all smiles, and she was doing those hand gestures you make when you've been abducted. This comes after the couple split earlier this year with Kanye rapping on the track Bianca that she left him due to his online rants. The song also is

said that Kanye hadn't slept since Bianca left him. How's it going on with him? I haven't heard boo from him since he started supporting the Nazi party on his website and selling swastika t-shirts. He also had a black Klan outfit, black hood and everything. Shut up. Listen, you've got to have some variety in your wardrobe.

Right around the song's release, he was traveling solo in Japan. So I don't know. Imagine you're the artist that has released Poo-Poo-Dee Scoop and you have to do a follow-up to that. How do you do that? You get a black Klansman outfit, apparently. All right, so this one came out of nowhere for me.

But Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus have confirmed dating rumors after posting a joint Easter photo where Cyrus is kissing Hurley on the cheek and captioned it Happy Easter with a heart emoji. This can't be. Hurley's son Damien showed support commenting with a heart emoji as well as a partying face emoji.

I don't know if I know the partying face emoji. Anyway. I saw this picture and I thought it was two women. No, that's Billy Ray. The woman with the beard is Billy Ray Cyrus. Yeah.

You just thought she had a fuzzy cheek. I didn't even see the hair. You thought it was shadows or something? It looked like the long hair and shadows. I thought it was the wrong picture. They were both dressed casually with Hurley, rock and a blue flannel and jeans and a straw hat. Cyrus went for a classic denim shirt and some black pants and some lime green bunny ears.

Hurley previously fueled speculation by tagging Billy Ray in a bikini post set to his song, She's Not Crying Anymore. This marks Cyrus' first potential romance since his divorce from Fire Rose in 2020. Fire Rose! By the way. Should Billy cut his hair at this point?

Oh, yes. But it's covering a lot of his face and he probably likes it that way. Yeah. But I went on because I wanted to see the photo and I went on Elizabeth Hurley's account on Instagram and she posts a whole lot of bikini pictures. She's in amazing shape. Yeah, it's mainly that. I mean, she's probably had some work done, but I mean, whatever work was done was done well. Yeah, she looks great. Yeah. Yeah.

Her son, by the way, looks almost exactly like her. Her son does? Her son. Michelle Obama is shutting down the drama and showing up on her own terms. A former first lady was spotted in L.A. flashing her wedding rings while visiting the Academy's HQ with her brother and podcast co-host and Craig Robinson, despite rumors circulating.

swirling about a possible split from Barack Obama. She made her stance clear with some sparkle and a smile. She addressed the chatter on Sophia Bush's Work in Progress podcast earlier this month saying that the idea that she's pulling back from politics because of marital issues is simply untrue. She said so much so that people, they couldn't even fathom that I was making a choice for myself that they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing, she said. So she said no.

Everything is fine with them, by the way. She says she took a lot of inspiration from Fire Rose. Fire Rose, who wouldn't?

So, let me see. Interesting stuff to pass along to you guys. What was this one? Oh, yeah. So, actor Chase Crawford, one of the stars of The Boys and Gossip Girl. He's the guy that plays the Deep. He's great. He and Victoria's secret model, Kelsey Merritt, are an item. The pair were last seen getting in some quality PDA in New York City last week, confirming their romance, and they were first rumored to be more than friends after they were seen in...

Los Angeles together back in January. So you can imagine the fight for the mirror in that relationship. Both super good looking. So we're going to have Valerie Bertinelli on later this morning. Probably not going to ask her about this, but months after their breakup...

The aftershocks of the November 2024 breakup between Valerie Bertinelli and Mike Goodenough continue. In an Instagram post over the weekend, he wrote, A couple weeks ago, there was an ado about conflict between Valerie and I that ended up in the press. A post of mine here was the cause of it.

I regret having posted it. My post made it worse rather than better. And then he added, I had hoped that we'd find a way to gentle...

Wait, to a gentle parting rather than a closed door but couldn't seem to get us to one. I reached out again this week in that hope. No answer is an answer, though, and I accept it. In the since-deleted original post, Goodnaw had written that Bertinelli was, quote, making hostile, dishonest, and uncalled-for backhanded swipes aimed at him.

He had said, Valerie is in a war with her ghost. I'm just the guy who catches the bullets and that isn't new. So she sees dead people as well. It sounds like that to me on top of that, Steve. So she can understand Haley Joel Osment's pain. Yeah, right. Especially all that he's going through right now. Two people that see the dead.

So we're getting our first look at the next horror project from Jordan Peele. Yeah. Him is a football-centric horror film starring Tariq Withers and Marlon Wayans in the story of pro quarterback prospect...

Cameron Cade, who begins training for the upcoming NFL Combine by teaming legendary QB Isaiah White at his isolated compound. Now, Cade finds out that making it big on the gridiron may cost him more than blood, sweat, and tears. The movie also stars Julia Fox, Tim Heidecker, Jim Jeffries, MMA fighter Maurice Green, and rappers...

Guap Dad 4000. You're not a fan of Guap Dad? And Tierra Whack. Yeah, Guap Dad is really the reason I'm going to go see this. But I'll say this. It looks like, if you watch the teaser trailer, it looks like there's a deal of sorts with a demon. Okay.

And that looks like to be the conceit of this. I'm always interested with anything Jordan Peele is doing. Yeah. Peele is producing this through his company, Monkey Paw Productions, with Justin Tipping directing. And it comes out on September 19th. But yes, the trailer is out if you want to see that now. I thought this was pretty fun. Keanu Reeves is set to play the villain in an upcoming Weezer movie. Frontman Rivers Cuomo.

confirmed the movie is a real thing while appearing at Coachella last weekend. Now, the Weezer film will apparently be a mockumentary-style movie about the rivalry between Keanu's band Dogstar.

And the interesting thing, so the rival angle between the two bands was chosen because Weezer actually played their first show as an opener for Dogstar in 1992. Wow. That's funny. Yeah. As for what else to expect, the movie is said to be a cross between Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Weird, the Al Yankovic story. So they're really going to play with it.

I'm down with that. I agree. Absolutely, yeah. So the movie is also set to star Juliette Lewis, Eric Andre, Johnny Knoxville, and Ben Schwartz. So great cast.

And, of course, Weezer will be in that movie, too. How close, Case, there was that time when Dogstar was just fairly recently? They were on tour and we were close to getting Keanu in the studio. What happened with that? Oh, I don't remember. Was it Marshall Warfield? It was probably Marshall Warfield who put a kibosh on that. I just grabbed it. Singer, right? No, no, from a night court. Night court. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Ross.

Oh, my God. Nice. Well, all right. Well, we're going to talk to John Larroquette later on this morning. We should ask him. What did Marshall Warfield do to sabotage our piano interview? Hey, Emilio Estevez just dropped some fun news for Mighty Ducks fans. I know Marissa's a Mighty Ducks fan. He revealed, I wrote Mighty Ducks 4, hoping to fix all the disasters that happened on the Game Changers series.

The Mighty Ducks Game Changer Series on Disney Plus was the streamer's hope to reboot the beloved hockey series. Oh, like the right kid, yeah. Back on board as Coach Bombay. But due to classic creative differences and nothing more than a good old-fashioned contract dispute, Emilio dropped out after the first season with a show going on for one more season before being canceled. But he wanted to rewrite Ducks history.

with a fresh spin on an all-girls team in the Pro Women's Hockey League. Coach Bombay, who's now coaching roller derby, would be back and says, my girls are going with me. They have to have a shot. And he said that it was charming and contemporary and cool, but Disney was not interested in it.

So two things. I saw the reunion of the Breakfast Club that they had just recently in Chicago. Did you watch a bit of it? I didn't watch any of it. I read about it, though. Yeah, so he said, Emilio Estevez says, you know, he goes, I had to come. He goes, I was hearing back that all you guys thought I didn't like you. And he's with them. And he says, I love you. That's why I'm here. And then in an interview that was tangential to that person, he revealed that he had received an apology from Stephen King.

for Maximum Overdrive. Apparently, King was like coked out throughout that entire movie. But Emilio Estevez has written a script for a second Maximum Overdrive. Oh. With him owning the diner. And apparently, King has some interest in it. Okay. So just a couple of weeks ago, I had mentioned to you somebody's mom or somebody that we know is...

either friend or sibling or parent or something along those lines was the choreographer for the breakfast club dance scene. Marissa, okay, Marissa knows this. Yeah. Uh,

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember that short conversation. From our engineering department, Rob Grossman. Rob Grossman, that's who it was. Who unfortunately does not work here anymore, but we love him and he's amazing. It was his aunt. His aunt choreographed the dance scene in Breakfast Club. And then I think like Revenge of the Nerds and a whole bunch of other movies too. Huh?

That's funny. That's neat. Wow. Rob, we would still love to have her in if you listen to her. Yeah. I know Rob himself did all the choreography for The Sound of Music. He never posted about it. That's a long movie. Yeah, it is. There's a lot of moves in that. That's a long movie. It was an accomplishment. Yeah.

So, within the Star Wars universe, Darth Maul is legend. After debuting in an epic battle with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Star Wars Phantom Menace, he makes an appearance in Star Wars Clone Wars, Solo A Star Wars Story, and Star Wars Rebels. And now Disney has announced the red-faced villain will be getting his own animated series. Interesting. Maul Shadow Lord.

We'll have original voice actor Sam Witwer reprising his role in the new project. Well, that wasn't who played him in the movies. No, it was Ray Parks. Ray Parks. This was the voice actor, Sam Witwer, for the, I guess it would have been in Star Wars Rebels. Yeah, they brought him back to life in kind of a weird way, and then he showed up. With tape.

Yeah, I mean, they taped him back together after Obi-Wan cut him in half. No, they brought him back to life in the cartoon, and then his character, the non-animated version of it, showed up at the end of Solo.

the origin story for Han Solo, which was confusing to people who hadn't watched Star Wars Rebels, myself included. So I asked Nick Murphy about it, and he explained to me the whole origin of Darth Maul coming back to life, and he never really died, even though Obi-Wan cut him in half. So the new series is set after the events of the final season of Clone Wars, with Maul rising again to lead the underworld factions. The series is currently in production. It will premiere next year. All right, we are going to jump over to the clips.

Let's start with this. If pimple popping is a happy trigger, then Dr. Pimple Popper Breakout is here for you. Dr. Sandra Lee talks about her personal satisfaction from the new series. I feel so special that I get to see how they react when they see that something's gone. And I also, because of the show, I get to see how their life is afterwards. It's just a precious thing. Shut up, dummy. A new episode of Dr. Pimple Popper Breakout airs today. You can see that on Lifetime.

Here's our next clip.

Bella Ramsey has spent the last 10 years growing up on Scream. And in this clip, The Last of Us star talks about returning as an older version of her character. Here we go. It's so fun getting to step back into a character. But with kind of new revelations about her as a character and about me in my own life. So it's cool. There's always a merging of me and whatever character I'm playing. And that happens times 10 with Ellie because I'm spending so much time in her skin. Cut.

A new episode of The Last of Us is indeed streaming on Mac, so you can see that. So, I watched it last night. It was... It is a mother effer of an episode. It is going to blow you away, Preston. Can't wait. Yeah. Cannot wait. Love, love, love, love that show. So...

That's our entertainment report this morning. We have a lot happening today. As I mentioned earlier, uh, not only Valerie Bertinelli joining, she'll be around nine o'clock, but John, John, my cat is going to be on the program to around 10. Uh,

inside all of that, we will also have your opportunity to win some cash. It's 20 money. It's a presidency of 20 money. We start less than an hour from now.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. All right, thank you very much, Kathy. If you guest on the show today, John Larroquette from Night Court, Valerie Burton. Now, let me be joined as you're giving away cash, of course, with our Preston and Steve 20 money that's coming up. But in the meantime, we're back from vacation. It's good to see you guys again. Hopefully, got some time to relax a tad bit. We were just chatting off air about...

The story that we had in the Entertainment Report with Haley Joel Osment being arrested while we were gone. And he was apparently blackout, doesn't remember anything, hammered, wasted. Yeah. And was saying stupid stuff and that got caught on camera and he's...

What he's saying is he's looking back at it going, oh my God, I can't believe I did that, that type of thing. I've heard people, and I think you brought it up, the fear and the embarrassment of a situation like that I've never experienced. That, the closest I've come to that is coming out of proper fall from a colonoscopy. Right. But that terror that you were drunk.

And then finding out that you did something that you were completely unaware of, to me, must be like unbelievable. It's like severance. Like you have no recollection of that part of your body doing that type of thing. And it's your body is your brain. Right. But there's no recollection at all. It's a completely different person. Yeah. Does what does a moment come to mind?

Well, I got brownout drunk with you guys at the golf club that one time when I got escorted off stage. And that's a fairly embarrassing moment. Can I relive that moment? Go right ahead. So we were doing an auction and we were at White Manor Country Club. And it was, you know, people were dressed nice. We had a golf outing. A well-moneyed event. And I believe that we were auctioning off art.

Yes. I think it was artwork or a trip or something like that. It was a trip, and we'd been on the golf course all day, and Preston, you probably took the golf part of it more seriously, and I took the drinking part of it more seriously. So I don't know if we did 18 holes or whatever, but I was out there day drinking, and then the dinner and auction and fancy part of the evening was after that. So we're trying to get people to bid on these items, and sometimes you hit a bit of a stalemate when it comes to...

getting more people to donate and you have a really good prize and people just aren't offering up and you as the auction host feel bad that it's not getting the type of money that they want. That's your job. It's just the way it is. People aren't ready to pony up. And Nick...

Nick wasn't having it because he was trying to get these people to bid. And he looks at this guy. He's like, come on, man. You got this money. You can make this bid. And he just looks at the guy. And Nick paused for a minute. He just goes, you, sir.

are a pussy. And so, from my perception, I'm standing a little forward from Nick and I turn around and like in the cartoons when the witch would disappear and bobby pins would be spinning in the air, like Nick's cup was spinning in midair, they yanked him off stage so fast that it was like a...

My memory of it, Steve, is very fuzzy. And so, you know, we're talking about being blackout and or, you know, brownout drunk or whatever. But I do remember being on stage and then not being on stage because it was so fast. What happened? Yeah. It was like that scene when the...

When the Flash perceives the world and he's watching the Batarang come by in slow motion, that must have been what it was for you. My poor friend Ryan drove me home. Thankfully, I had a ride home or whatever and got me back to the house. But it was just like... And even... That was one of those nights where I was embarrassed before it was even over. That's how bad it felt. And...

you start to like try to piece together what happened. And then I think I got more of the story when I got into work in the next day or whenever, you know, whenever we saw each other the next time. When you're hovering around Blackout Truck as a lead up to it,

Are you aware that you're taking this precipitous decline? No. So it is literally like a switch where how did I, you wake up in bed or you're vomiting, you're sick, and then people tell you what you did. You're having fun and then all of a sudden you get whisked off the seat. Yeah, and then you wake up the next morning and then that's it.

Yeah, you're having fun, and then the next thing you know, you wake up feeling horrible. Oh, awful. That's it. That's the worst. But do we know if the guy made the bid or not? I don't think he did. He didn't. No, my challenge to him. It didn't work. I'm not a pussy. I'll make the bid on your dumb painting. I was being hectored by this gentleman from the radio.

So the time that I recall personally, and I've had a few in my time, but there was one specifically because there was...

video footage that I saw. Oh, wow. So you were shown after the fact video. Yeah. What's that like? Scary. I would imagine. Yeah. I remember being upset by seeing that and going, wow. I need a drink. I wasn't doing anything outrageous, but I just, the video of me talking to the camera, I'm like,

don't remember that at all. Oh, wow. Yeah, and I was like, oh, that's a wake-up call. Is it literally like watching another person that you don't know? Yeah. Yeah, kind of. Did it trigger any memories seeing the video? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Sometimes when that happens, it's just...

it's such a blank slate that there's nothing will bring back any memories at all. Yeah. No, I remember what it was. It was at, uh, what were you talking about? I was at, um, Mizzou university, Missouri, uh, visiting friends cause I didn't go to college and, I just went there to party and we went out and we were underage and we went to a bar and found a bar that would serve us. And we just got bombed out of our minds. And there was a girl that I was buying drinks for. And I thought,

Done deal. Shoe in. No problem. Oh, yeah. I got totally denied at the end of the night. Well, no kidding. You're being blacked out. Oh, yeah. Well, that... So we kept on... We went back to my buddy Billy's dorm room and I was staying there and I was all bummed out because this gal, you know, I didn't seal the deal. And so...

At some point, I'm like, well, I'm a musician. I'm going to write a song about this. This is what you're seeing on the video. Oh, yeah. Yeah. What are you doing, Press? Right. She's going to love me. Totally, right? Oh.

And I'm sitting here with paper and pen and I got like three words in and that's it. It's terrible. Horribly embarrassing. That's amazing. Oh, wow. This is bad. Who has that video? Yeah. Wait, do you still get like sort of that feeling, like a sense of that feeling when you're even talking about it now? Absolutely. Embarrassment. Yeah. Shame. Yeah.

All of those things. Yes, absolutely. To this day. In fact, let me jot that down. I've got something to talk in my therapist. I've heard more people talk about that experience. About, you know, if someone is like, screws up parties or...

That when they've been presented with a video of them, that it's a lot of times it is that come to Jesus moment. The cell phones and everything didn't exist when I was in college. Okay. Question. Yeah.

The video of your neighbor hosing you down on ice cream on you. I actually love that. Okay, you do love that? No, I'm not embarrassed by it at all. Do you remember that? I remember all of it. That was your work. That was your job. Steve, that's the way I look at it. I was tasked with a job to do that morning, and I did that job, and then I kept doing that job.

Even when I got home, so I wasn't even blackout. I was completely aware of everything that was going on and how ridiculous it was. And so when we got home and Cass was watering the flowers, I turned to Joe. I go, get the video camera. I got gold for you right now. This is after, by the way, this is after drunk day. Yeah.

And you were covered in ice cream, right? Yeah. As was Nick, who almost was murdered in the children's waiting pool. Yeah. But you get home and...

And your neighborhood, we used to refer to as Jackie Mason, right? Is this the same one? No, those weren't those people. No, no, no. This is Bob and Cass. Okay, so they were hosing you down on the front lawn. Yeah. But you were just, would you have qualified as brownout drunk? No, no, no. I know everything that happened. I was hammered. I was absolutely hammered. And I was in a jockstrap, by the way. I was in a jockstrap.

on my neighbor's lawn getting hosed off by her in front of her flower bed and then her husband comes around because he was in the back and he's like, what the hell is going on here? And then my neighbor Jen comes out, right? And Jen's like, I just remember, she's like, what are you doing? I was like, I'm just getting hosed off, Jen. That's all good. Did either of the neighbors hosing you off, the wife or the husband that came out afterwards, did they like...

understand what was going on. They knew what was happening. In fact, when I was at like... They knew about the show and went to bed? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a highlight of...

It was a highlight for them. I talked to their grandkids about it, like, you know, their funerals, and they were like, oh, yeah. There was a week or two ago, a listener asked me about drunk days and why we don't do them anymore. And I gave an explanation, which I think is the honest one, which is they were a lot of fun. I don't regret any of the drunk days. They are embarrassing to look back on. But while doing them at the time, they were a blast. I don't think I ever got blackout drunk.

for any of the drunk days. And I did three or four of them. I did one with you, Kath. I did the double day one with you, Casey. I did one with Marissa. And then I did the one with intern Julie. It took its toll. It beat the crap out of us. Your weekend was ruined. Because it was always right before 4th of July. And then some, right? You're like lousy drunk. We're watching video footage of...

Casey and Nick in a children's waiting pool full of melted ice cream. And Casey is attempting to kill Nick. I am not! Oh, you're trying to wake him up. I'm sorry. You look up at the camera at one point. You're holding his head in the ice cream.

Casey is holding one hand, is holding Nick's head down into the ice cream. The other hand is shoving ice cream into his head. His head is above the ice cream line. By the way, I am not holding his head down. I can't believe you're defending your actions. What you need to understand is in classic Preston and Steve show fashion, this was supposed to be a children's waiting pool.

filled with chocolate ice cream. There's about two inches, three inches at the bottom. I'm sweating. Yeah, but Casey is splashing. He's like, I'm boarding him, right? Yes, I am.

Yes, you're not describing this properly. His head is above the water the whole time. I'm just splashing his face. But look at your left hand. Look at your hand. It's shoving his head down in there. His head is above the water the whole time. You turn towards the camera and you just have this Essie-ing grin on your face right here. This photo. Look it. I'm killing him. Look it. I'm killing Nick. My job. Yes.

My job is to murder my co-worker today. If you guys go back to the beginning, Nick was initially trying to kill me. If you look at it, I was just defending my life. That's all. There were many attempts at each other's lives that day. Somebody in texting is from Rob. Rob Stas texting. He said, I read recently that after a certain point of intoxication, your brain...

actually stops recording new information. It's not that we forget what happened when blacked out. It's that our brain stops remembering everything, and that's why we get flashbacks. So would that hold true? You've all had that experience? That sounds about right to me. Yeah, because really, your brain just stops functioning entirely, and that's the difference between the blackout and the brownout. With the brownout, there's glimpses, Steve. But the brownout's kind of like...

Yeah. Like coming out of it, like you have that, wait, when did I go under and what happened right before the surgery? With the blackout, there's just nothing. Wow. To me, as part of the reason...

I don't like the taste of alcohol. And sometimes it's giving me acid reflux and I don't like that. Even in the smallest way, like rum cake. But the notion of not being in control is so terrifying to me. Well, it's a learning process.

When you were younger and you don't know things yet, you can easily overdo it. And then you're like, oh, hopefully you learned that lesson that you can't do it that way. And you go like, you know, you wake up with a horrible, like you're like, oh God, what did I say last night? What did I do last night? And then you call somebody immediately and you just wait for them to go, no, you were okay. And if you don't get that right away, you're like, oh no.

No, he didn't tell me I was okay. Instead, you get the, oh, yeah, you were pretty messed up. Yeah. And is that when you have to go further and query as to what did I do? Yeah, because a lot of times, and listen, I know a lot of people that like to throw them back. And the next day, they'll be like, oh, no. And I'll have to be like, no, you were good last night.

Don't worry. Yeah, I'm usually the court stenographer for social events because I'm remembering everything. But it's sad when you see someone...

And it can be amusing, obviously, as it was with drunk Dave. But when you see someone who's just really penitent and it's like, you know, it got away from them. They just they're so crestfallen. It's horrible. You know where you see it happen? And we've talked about this many times are like, you know, office parties where there's an open bar and, you know, people who aren't used to.

Have at it. You're not paying tonight. And they overdo it. And that is one of the worst settings. What's wrong with embezzlement? Yeah, totally. Or you're talking crap about your coworkers and you just let it all come out. And that can be a recipe for disaster. Most definitely. But Haley Joel Osment, he was out in public and he was skiing around.

Do you guys drink when you ski? I don't. And I never understood it because like that is not a combination that's going to end well for you. Yes. I was wondering about that. To me, that would seem you're working against purposes. Yeah. It's hard enough being sober and not getting injured. Yeah, exactly. And you see it all the time. I mean, not only do they have the bars, you know, for after skiing or in the middle of the day or whatever, but you'll see it on the lifts. You look down, there's beer cans thrown down there like everywhere.

It's a thing. Really? Wow. They're bringing backpacks with some beers in it or whatever. And yeah, I never really understood that. Yeah. No, I haven't done that. I'm trying hard enough to not fall down. Yeah. Where I don't need encouragement. I don't need help along the way. He was getting on the ski lift. And I guess they forbid or you're not supposed to get on the ski lift without...

He didn't have a snowboard or skis or anything. You generally want to have some equipment. Something on your feet. And he had a GoPro pointed down at the top of his head. Let's go. We have via Zoom joining us Robert checking in because he wants to chime in on this. Hi, Robert. Morning, bud. Hey, Preston. Hey, how you guys doing? Nice to see you, sir. So...

When I drink too much, this was something I discovered about myself. I sleepwalk. Wow. Okay. So I was totally, I drank too much on a go figure on a work night. And when I was sleepwalking, I have no recollection of this. There was a hangar rack where I hang my shirts to dry and stuff.

And I walked in, my wife hears me, uh, hustling around and I, uh, just broke apart this entire hangar rack. And, uh, I just like destroyed this whole thing. And then I, uh, it was an Ottoman in the spare bedroom. And, uh,

It was one of those ottomans that lifts up. Yes. And there's a compartment underneath. I lift this ottoman up and I just pee in it. You peed in it? Yeah. Yep, yep, yep. Yep.

I'm eating the ottoman. It's like a scene out of Step Brothers when they're having the sleepwalking, right? It was a total Step Brothers moment. I have no memory of this whatsoever. And my wife is apparently saying to me, what are you doing? I'm like, what? I'm in the bathroom. And you don't remember any of it? Not at all.

One bit of it. I could have gone my whole life not knowing this. I came home and I asked, why is the hangar rack destroyed? Did your dogs get in there? Oh, I got a story for you. Did she record it? Was she able to record it? Was there video available at the time or no? No, there was no video. I was so embarrassed. How long before you imbibed again after we were hearing you'd done that?

Oh, my God. I'm sorry. Could you repeat that? How long after did you wait to drink before when you heard that story? Not that long. Not that long. Isolated incident. His story reminded me. So in the autumn and that you were peeing in, did she find you doing that or did you find out later that you had done that? She...

He found me just doing it. He found you doing it. I was just going. I was just like, what? What's the matter? You think it's the toilet. It's a lid. You open it up and you're peeing. I got it. Thank you. Appreciate it, Robert. That's a whole other story. Things that people have peed in

While blackout drunk thinking they're going to the bathroom. My buddy Steve has done that before. Oh, okay. Well, the story that came to mind for me, Preston, is a girl I was dating at the time, her brother liked to imbibe and they had side-by-side rooms.

there was a bathroom between those rooms. He bypassed the bathroom, walked in and you know, that little drawer where she keeps her journal. Oh man. And my dream board and they're all in there. He pulls out the drawer and

pisses in it. And she's so gobsmacked like she didn't, you know, for the first few seconds until she realized what he was doing. But he takes a whiz in a small sort of notebook drawer. You know, I don't know if you guys ever did this, but when you were in

shore houses and you put a few families in sometimes or at least when my friends started to have kids or whatever, if there's a big walk-in closet, sometimes they use that for the baby and they put the crib in there if it's in the same room as the parents. So that's what my friends did and it was vacation and

I guess dad went out, and so dad had to get up and go to the bathroom. Oh, no. And my friend was like, oh, I guess he's checking on the baby. And all of a sudden, she was like, what are you doing? He was not peeing. He was just peeing in the corner of the closet. That's where the baby was sleeping. Giving a golden shower to a toddler. Not that this is an excuse, Kathy, but I've heard that happen in vacation houses or beach houses or in hotels or whatever because you're just...

You have no idea where you are already. And then if you add alcohol to that mix, it's just a little more common to pee in that closet or in the crib or whatever. What is the connection between alcohol and the inability to...

To withhold your urine. Well, it's a diuretic. Number one, it makes you urinate. So you're going to have to go more than normally just drinking water. And then there's just that slight confusion. Especially if you wake up. You've already fallen asleep. And you're going to get up and go somewhere and go to the bathroom. You're trying to find your way and it's dark. And this...

Seems like a good spot right here. This'll do. You peed in Tim Graham's sink, right? There's plumbing involved. That comes up like once a year, doesn't it? Yeah, I mean, it has to. Did he catch you?

No, I told him about it. Yeah, I fessed up. I think you told him about it like Monday morning when we talked about it on the air. On the air, yes. I talked about it publicly. The Catholic Down the Shore, I remember sleeping, you know, it was one of those, we were probably like 23 years old. Everybody's just sleeping on the floor in the living room. And I just remember waking up and this guy is basically walking on people's faces just going, sorry.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. And then next thing I know, he's on his tippy toes peeing in the sink. You know, he's like, what are you doing? Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. Remember, sorry. I probably shared this with you guys on the air one time before. My friend, I'm not going to name his name. He pooped in the middle of the room. And we were all partying in Hoboken and

It just got real. It was unbelievable, Steve. This guy is now a professor in a college. Hang on. Did you watch him do it? I was passed out, but other people got back. We'd been out partying in Hoboken all night, and we were coming back in different stages. Just like you were describing, everybody's passing on the floor. It was a three-bedroom apartment. There were 40 people in there. That's an exaggeration. There were 30 people in there.

And so far too many and whatever. So this dude gets back and doesn't realize where the bathroom is or can't figure it out. And his brain is just misfiring and then pressing other people were getting back.

from the bars after he did and they witnessed it. How did he? He pulled his pants down and then he did it on the floor in the middle of my carpet. And he used my friend Stu's leg to wipe.

Oh, my God. Didn't he, right before he did it, he said, what did he say? Santa's got to go. Yeah, right? No, he did say afterwards when he was cleaning it up that he's well-respected in his field, which he is. But at the time... I am well-respected.

That holds little weight when you're using your friend's leg to wipe your ass. And the other guy that got, when he got back from the bar, he's like, oh my God, it smells like crap in here. And they walked upstairs and they're like, oh my God, there's a big pile of crap in here. One of the most bizarre videos I saw was of a drunk woman outside a fairly expensive restaurant. This is a nighttime footage. So get this. She's crouched down in the parking lot with the valets right there.

She's crouched down, but she craps into her hand and then puts the turds down on the pavement. It's like, crap, crap! Sometimes. It never really makes sense. Hold on, Nick. So your friend, are you still... We were chatting this weekend. I'll tell him later today that I told the story on air. Please make him a shirt that says, I am well-respected in my field. And just that.

With an emoji of a guy hunched over to him. I'm going to text him that quote right now and see what he says when he responds. Yeah, I want to see what his response is. Because it has to haunt him to this day. It should. Chuck and I, our boss Chuck, we were having lunch together at a restaurant over here in the Ballot Chemical Shopping Center. And so he and I are just sitting there. Is this when he took a dump on Honeygrove? I just hear him go, oh, dude. And I'm like, what? He's like, nothing, hang on.

And so then I have to wait to figure out what he's dutying about. And so little did I know that over my left shoulder, there was a gentleman outside of the restaurant that we were eating at. He was sitting at a park table, park bench.

and just pissed himself sitting there, right? And Chuck watched this whole thing go down, right? So he's describing to me what happened. I thought he had taken things out of his pants and gone to the bathroom. He's like, no, no, no, no. It was just dripping out of his pants. And then he walked into the restaurant that we were in and then went immediately to the bathroom. And luckily, we were done our lunch. Dude, I said, we have to leave now because what's going to happen is...

He's going to come out of the bathroom and we're going to lock eyes. And then next thing you know, I'm going to be like involved in an altercation. I said, we need to get out of here. And sure enough, so we leave. And yeah, the dude was just sitting there pissing himself. Wow. He was confused about the order of things. Yeah, yeah, yeah. About what you do. That's like that scene in Stars Born where Bradley Cooper's up on stage. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, my God. And that's a classic.

Hey, look what you did last night, man. Yeah. Wow. That's a level of alcohol abuse. That's horribly sad. Yeah. Yeah, if it gets to that. All right, interesting. Unless you're well-known in your field. Unless you're well-respected in your field. Of course, then all bets are off. It's all good.

But yeah, it was worth chatting about because while we were off, Haley Joel Osment got arrested and he was blackout drunk and said some things that he says he does not remember at all. And that is a wake-up call. A whole bunch of bad stuff, yeah. All right, well, listen, I want to take a break because we want you to win $1,000 and we want to stay on time with it. It's called Preston and Steve's 20 Money. And it's your chance to win a grand five times a day. The first stop is at 8, so we'll break, come back in a second. We'll get the bizarre file.

Is that a dog's name or a person's name? They do not indicate. Maybe a dog. It's spelled P-A-I-S-L-I-E. It's a good dog's name. I do like that. So she says, thank you. And that's from Leah. So here's a shout out. And if it's your kid, I'm sorry. Yes. Or maybe it's the reincarnation of Prince. Right. Yeah. Here's another one. It says, hello, beautiful souls.

This is from Tina, by the way. And she says, would you please wish Rinaldo Sidkey an amazing birthday by giving him a big juicy shout out. His birthday is Monday the 21st. That's definitely a dog. But feel free to do this this week if it's easier to keep track. We listen to your show out here in San Bernardino County, California. And it gives us comfort of home. Best to you both and all of your team. So,

There's a shout out to you as well. We have about one minute left and then we will reveal the, uh,

word that you need to send over to us via 20 money and all that stuff.

But my favorite part of the day is the side stage, is the live band karaoke. I love it. I get such a kick out of this. It is a blast, and it consumes the bulk of what we're doing while we're there. And I think the way it times in with what's going on on the main stage case keeps the day moving fast. All right, so today's the last day to do it. Make sure you get on it. All right, it's time.

People send me bizarre file stories all the time, which I greatly appreciate.

This one tells us a school nutrition administrator has been arrested for committing a terribly unappetizing act at a Pennsylvania convenience store. Oh, no. An employee at a Royal Farms location in Hanover last week called police to report that an unknown woman had come in the previous day and defecated, quote, in the beer cave.

So the beer cave is a walk-in cooler, open to the public to select. Cooled beverages and all the doors into the beer cave and cooled areas are clear glass, providing visuals of the inside of the common area of the store. Is this woman well-respected in her field? A police review of store security footage. He hasn't texted me back yet. No, he hasn't.

The suspect pushing a case of alcoholic beverages on the back shelf, pulling her pants down and defecating on the shelves. Just shelves. And then leaving. Took a hairy schlitz, huh? Yes, she did.

Cameras recorded the woman arriving at Royal Farms in an SUV. The vehicle's registered owner identified Crystal Goss as the individual driving the car. 34 degrees, just the way I like it. When the offense occurred, a driver's license photo of Goss matched the subject depicted in the surveillance footage, police say.

She was arrested for several crimes, including open lewdness, criminal mischief, and disorderly conduct that created a hazardous and physical offensive condition. That, Bud, is for you.

According to the complaint, which does not indicate why she allegedly used the beer cave as a toilet, about $80 worth of Royal Farms merchandise was lost. I'll tell you what the difference is. At least it was refrigerated, which would keep the smell down. Goss, who lives about a mile from Royal Farms, is the director of food and nutrition at the local school district. Oh, she was. She was. She was.

While we're talking. All right, this is probably the most disturbing story of the week. A man in Texas has been charged with murder for allegedly disemboweling his 74-year-old dad, slitting his throat and then leaving him to die at his El Paso home where cops found his body rotting inside last weekend.

Just two days after the son attacked his father with a hammer and told him, give me the power. After becoming convinced that he was an alien. So Jamie Adrian Contreras was arrested and booked this week in connection with the death of Victor Gerardo Contreras inside his home.

So Contreras obsessed with the idea that an extraterrestrial had taken over his dad's body, trying to harvest his organs. Cops say that he told them after his arrest that he had been, quote, battling with Victor Contreras for days. On April 5th, the alleged victim called police.

reported an incident where Jamie Contreras was attacking him with a hammer. Said he was acting crazy again. The victim's wife recalled him telling her after the incident that he was acting crazy again. Did the police find anything to suggest that he was in fact an extraterrestrial? Not at this time, Steve. Well, you know, they can hide it. The details of the case are being kept under wraps for now. Contreras was allegedly threatening his dad and claimed to have killed his pets.

Officers responded to the call and spoke with both parties, but it wound up being closed out as non-incident. I am your father. I am your father. And Jamie's mental health was described as being okay. Yeah, sounds okay. Documents from 2023... How do you define okay? Also outlined two other incidents from Jamie's past where he allegedly walked around his dad's neighborhood with a decapitated rabbit. Jesus. And another where he had an alleged breakdown over his father being an alien. Maybe he misunderstood it. It's usually the foot.

His bond was set at $2 million, by the way. Jeez. Yeah.

A blaze on Staten Island that started with sex toys being set on fire in a backyard and then spread quickly destroyed the home of an 88-year-old woman and has left her living in terror. My devil's going up like a rocket. So Angela, the daughter-in-law of 88-year-old Lillianne, said the first night she had a nightmare, screamed really loud. She screamed so loud I never heard one scream like that.

She said she's talking to herself like I don't understand, asking herself questions. She's trying to understand the blaze had forced Lillian and her daughter Sophia to take refuge with Angela. Could the Hulk really be that famous? So Sophia, who was living in the home as a caretaker to her mother, grew up there with her eight siblings. The fire started.

which authorities initially called suspicious, started around 3 o'clock Wednesday and quickly spread to two neighboring buildings, which were then extensively damaged. So Harry Torres was charged with arson and reckless endangerment. Staten Island for you. Torres told investigators, I started the fire, I was in the backyard of my house, and I lit two sex toys on fire.

Well, we don't have fireworks. It's the next best thing. Torres used lighter fluid and told investigators that he was trying to get rid of the DNA on the sex toys, which included a rubber vagina. You can just wash it with Clorox. You don't have to light your rubber vagina on fire. One neighbor said Torres seemed, quote, a little off. You're kidding. As the flames from the fire spread. Like the other guy? Yeah.

As the flames from the fire spread, it was none other than the family cat Cyrus who alerted the elderly woman to the blame. Something's going on out there. The blaze. Angela said the cat jumped down from its perch, which it never really does. It jumped down to listen because he heard something and it usually comes back, but he didn't come back this time.

Thank you for that useful information. Lillian heard noises and feared someone was about to break in. Ma'am, how did your cat respond to this? She said the window burst open and the flames came in. What she was hearing was probably the popping of the fire. Oh, I seen it. I seen it all.

There were no injuries reported from the fire, which also damaged two vehicles. So I don't know what's going on. I assume that you're going to have to write that vagina off, right? I think so. Yeah. So there you go. You got to call State Farm. That's all you have time for in the bizarre file. Those are two good ones. Yep. All right. So a reminder, you have until 25 minutes after the hour to enter the word at top. That is our presidency of 20 money.

keyword for now. So you can text that over to 45911 or you can send it through the app or through WMMR.com. But you have until 25 after the hour. The word is top T-O-P. What? Just thinking of incinerating sex toys to get the DNA off of them. Some people want to be thorough. Well, you really jumped right to the end, didn't you? Wait, I

Sorry, real quick. I will show you guys when we go off the air. But remember, before we went to break, we were talking about Lisa and her husband, Lisa Dennis, who used to work here at the station and how they're truck drivers and all this kind of stuff. And so she had texted me and was like, we find all this crazy stuff.

while we're driving trucks and I guess they were at a truck stop and she just sent me a picture of what they found when they were at a truck stop. A dildo. Just like sitting. Sitting out. Sitting out on the side of the road. I've been missing that. So she just texted me. She goes, show the guys. Oh my God. Well, she probably found an area where they cross when they're going down to the beach. Yeah, dildo crossing. Yeah. I might see like a sock or something like that every now and then. Not that. But I've not come across that as of yet.

All right, we're going to take a quick break. We'll come back in a moment. Don't forget later on this morning around 9 o'clock, Valerie Bertinelli will be joining us and around 10 o'clock, John Laroquet will be on the show and more. We'll be right back. Stay with us.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. Thank you, Kathy. We were chatting just a little while ago about, uh, it was Haley Joel Osment, it was blackout drunk, and we were just talking, reminiscing about our own moments with booze and

Nick told us about how a friend of his took a poop in the middle of the floor with a whole bunch of people around. 30 people in the room. And his quote was, I am well respected in my field. While he was cleaning it up. So I just texted him, and again, I'm not going to say his name, but I just texted him in quotes, I am well respected in my field. And he just goes, glad I can provide content. Laughter

Well, we hope that something good came out of this. Yes, it certainly did. And he is very well respected in his field. He is absolutely legitimately well respected in his field. Absolutely. Very good. Real quick, I have some chart outs and some emails and things like that that I would like to get to if you guys don't mind. They build up, don't they? Some of them are make goods. So I got this one. It says, hey, good morning, Preston and Steve.

Huge fan. I go to your camp out for hunger almost every single year. I listen to you every morning when my daughter take her to school. She loves the Bizarre Files. My birthday is on April 20th, and I always wanted someone to do this for me, but I guess I have to do it for myself. And my daughter would love to have one on her birthday, May 31st. She'll be 14 years old on that date. Her name is Francesca, and my name is Steve Checchia.

Thank you very much again for making my morning drive so much more pleasant sitting in traffic. Very much appreciated to you and Steve and Kathy and Nick and Casey boy. Love you all. Steve Chachia. So here's a shout out. That's for your birthday, Steve. And we're giving one way in advance for your daughter, Francesca.

as she will be turning 14 on May 31st. I don't trust myself to hang on to the email deal. No, no. I'm going to give that to you now. Here's another one. It says, hey, Presbo, my son Henry, great kid.

He will be 11 on April 21st. How old? He'll be 11. He plays violin, trumpet, baseball, soccer, and basketball. Wow. And has more talent than I've had ever in my life. And he loves the Bizarre Files and appreciates a fart as much as anyone.

Who doesn't? It would be so cool to have a juicy. He asked for a Tom Jones, but he says an ass blast for his birthday. Thank you. And always, it's a good morning to see you. We love you. And that's from Henry. Or he says, we love you, Henry. And that is from Christopher Bauer. So here's the show. Hey! Hello.

I love that we still do that. Special occasions. Still have Tom there for us. Here's what it says. Hello, WMMR family. One of your coolest teachers from last year is competing nationally for America's favorite team.

His name is Tim Engie. A-N-G-E is how you spell that last name. And he is by far the absolute coolest teacher. He is currently in first place in the quarterfinals. That's pretty good. And would like to see if you could propel him into the winner's circle by posting on your website. It would also be great to see a WMMR coolest teacher alumni get national attention.

And I included his picture with his mug and the Facebook link to vote for him. Nick, did you get that? I did, yes. Okay. Although posting on the website is a challenge currently. Yeah, we're having, I don't, just to be honest, I don't know what we're having. We're having hell. That's what we're having. I'm numb to the issues. No phones, no website, not a single luxury. No, thank you. It's primitive as can be.

So that is from Philly Phil Patelmo. So, yeah, I don't know what to do. He could probably reach more people by just yelling out the window. Probably. But we want to wish him luck. Tim Engie. And hopefully he gets that national recognition. That'd be really, really cool. Or we got a website. Yeah. Yeah. And then we can help.

All right, here's another one that says, hey, and this one is an interesting note, too. It says, I'm requesting a shout-out from my recently passed Uncle Ricky.

He was born and bred Delco boy, lifelong Eagles fan, such a dedicated fan. His funeral brochure was a copy of his season tickets with the Eagles fight song in the back in place of a prayer. On top of that, in his retirement, he got to spread his love of music as a radio host of the Rock and Soul Time Machine weekend show,

on W-E-E-S as The Doctor. That was his name. He was a classic rock and Motown man and an encyclopedic knowledge about all things music. He was deeply loved by his family and friends. It will be dearly missed. I know my whole family would be appreciative of a big juicy shout out and a little love for our main man, Ricky. Thanks and go birds. And that is from...

So that's from Dan. So there's the shout out. So sad to hear another radio person passing away. Kathy, I'm sorry, Marissa brought this note and says, we'll share the tincture link on all of our social media accounts. So if you go to all the social media accounts, it'll be right there and it'll take you to that tincture.

Okay. So any of our social media accounts? Yeah, she'll share it to all of them. All right. Thank you. So like if you ever can't find something, it's good to just go to the social media accounts because Marissa will post whatever it is you're having difficulty finding. It'll be up there. Yes. Of course, you're going to need a retinal scan just to make sure.

And then you can get on in. And then both you and someone you trust will be asked to turn a key simultaneously. All right. So this one is fun. This is from Maureen Haney or Hophney. I'm not sure how you say her last name. She says, hey, huge fans here. Hey, bitches. She says, I just wanted to share some super exciting news. My friend Nicole is going to be a contestant on the Wheel of Fortune. Oh! Oh!

And she says we are both huge fans of the show and your morning crew, so we thought it would be amazing if you could give her a shout-out or even talk about it on the air. She will be on the 24th. So what's today, the 21st? Uh-huh.

So that's what, Thursday she'll be on? I watch it every day. So you'll be able to see her, Steve. Nicole will be representing Philly, her hometown. She currently lives in Palmyra, New Jersey. With all the energy and charm we love. And I know your listeners will get a kick out of cheering her on, too. She's got the personality for TV and radio. And trust me, she's a total rock star.

Said, thank you for everything you guys do. You make our mornings way better every day. You guys rock, Gadzooks. That's from Maureen Hoffney and Nicole Adamski. She is going to be the one who is on the show. By the way, I think Ryan Seacrest doing a fine job. Is he? Yes. Yeah, I agree. 100%. He's the best.

Would you guys do any well? Would you do well on Wheel of Fortune? Wheel of Fortune is... I would do terrible. Jeopardy better. I used to be really good at Wheel of Fortune, and then for some reason I get so anxious watching it now. Like I'm racing against something. You know what I mean? They have those quasi-lightning rounds where they're calling them up quickly. I've seen people who are just born to play the game where you just get a couple letters. And sometimes...

it'll be the most arcane phrase and yet they'll come up with it. I always loved Wheel of Fortune. That was more my show than Jeopardy. I do like watching Jeopardy. However, Price is Right is where I would have taken it all. That's your jam, huh? That's my jam. I could have gone all the way. That's a pretty good point. I didn't even think about Price is Right. Yeah. I did so well on that show. Yeah? Oh, oh,

Just because you're a shopper? I don't know. Yeah, and like the over-under of the Showcase Showdown, the majority of the time, I win at home. Okay, let me ask you a question about the Showcase Showdown. As they're rattling off on the prizes that you get...

Are you, you're adding numbers to those? I'm keeping like, yeah, I'm like, I'm keeping some sort of tally. Okay, general idea. Because at the end, I would just make a ballpark, you know, number after saying, oh, that's, that's 26,000. Arrayed, arrayed. Yeah. A 25-inch colored television. But what I wouldn't do is go through and itemize and try to put money to each one of those. To each one. A black dildo found at the side of an interstate highway. How much?

It's free. Oh, God. A lot of doctors. There are... Most days, I would say, I feel fairly stupid. However, there are days where I've seen a documentary or read an article where I feel kind of smart. And on those days, I like to try to do the Jeopardy online test. Have you guys ever done it? No. So it's...

It's so freaking hard. It's so much harder than the show itself. Steve, I'm kind of like you. I think I do pretty well on the show most of the time. There are nights where I'm running all the categories. I'm like, that'd be great on the show. The online test is so much more difficult than the show itself. I would fold like a house of cards. You know what? Oddly enough...

Jeopardy, I find easier than Clash Room. If you watch the Clash Room. Because the thing with the Jeopardy construction of the clues can...

border collar you towards the answer. The classroom is simply just like a school trivia bowl. It is here's the question, no help, answer it, dumbass. And I find myself a lot of times going, I don't know the answer to this. But on Friday, Preston, I was running Jeopardy big time. I was like, yeah, yeah. I'm lawnmower man right now. I'm plugged in. And then you get crucified the next day. And that's the erratic nature of those shows. Absolutely.

All right, here's another one. This is, all right, I threw this out here because I don't know if this guy lives there or if he's checking in from there. It says, what's up, Presbo? Good morning. Just wanted to check in and say hello from Jamaica while listening to the show through the app. Have a wonderful day and happy Easter. No sad, bro. Love you guys. And that's from Hard Hat Matt. I read. So I don't know.

So I think he's maybe just there on vacation. Yeah, man. Hard hot, Matt. Yeah, probably vacation. And we envy him. Here's a butt plug. So good morning, Presbo and gang. A couple of months ago, I came across the account. I came across an account on TikTok. Wonderful family. And I've been following them since. Their youngest daughter, Elena Rose Campbell, suffered from a rare genetic skin condition.

uh, called, uh, epidermalosis, uh, Losa EB for short. And who's really involved in this is, uh, Eddie veteran, his wife, Jill. Um, the Eddie does several benefits every year for it. Um, Jill's wife or Jill's, um, I'm sorry, sister, uh, I believe died from it. Uh, but it's affected Eddie's wife's family. And, um, it's,

awful. Is this similar to like square derma? It looks really, really painful. A little bit different. Yeah. So it's referred to as butterfly skin. It causes the skin to blister and become fragile, tearing from even more trauma or friction. Elena's sub type also affected the mucous membrane inside of her body. It made it difficult and painful to eat and breathe. Oh, man. She died just a few weeks ago. Oh, my God. She's only 10 months old.

So she said, as a new parent, hit me hard. I can't imagine what her parents are going through. I'm writing this email to help me see you see this and help spread awareness for this horrible disease. Her and all other suffering deserve so much more. Please consider donating to her family and the EB nonprofit organization. Truly, this is up to us. Name the worst disease you've never heard of.

So the TikTok account is Elena's Journey underscore Elena's underscore Journey. So Brendan wanted me to mention that. So I'll mention that. And then...

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I wanted to send out a thank you. I got to thank you guys for setting me up with this gal in the first place. But while we were on vacation, one of the few things I did, because initially I was going to go on a golf trip. Oh, yeah. Injured myself. Had to scrap the trip altogether. Ended up just being staycation. The majority of stuff that I did was...

Getting stuff done. I cleaned out the garage, the basement. I did yard work. I did all that stuff. And I'm glad I did it. Yes. But I did have one little indulgence that I took advantage of. And I went to go see, you guys remember the gal Eve who came in here? Yes. And she did the tactile ASMR session for me. Well, I went to her studio and I got an official one done. How was it?

It was fantastic. So the name of it is Apple and Eve. It's in Percocet. And yeah, it was really cool. It was an hour of just her using her fingernails and brushes and things like that to lightly touch instead of a full massage. It was a... I mean, dude, I was like in a coma. I was just... Because it is... It's so...

What's the word I'm looking for? It's tension releasing for me. I just relax 100% as deeply as I can. And it was great. Are you on a massage table at the time? Yeah. And are you just like wearing a towel like a standard massage? Yeah, it's like a standard massage. Okay. You have face up and half face down. Same thing. But it's funny because I was telling my friends, Will and Lori, about this. Right. They were like...

I would have jumped out of my skin. Oh, they can't do it. Some people don't like it. That sensation. And I'm like, oh, my God, you guys are out of your mind. I was just absolutely in heaven with this whole thing. Yeah, yeah.

But, yeah, it was great. And Eve is really cool. She's really sweet. Loves the show. Well, they focus on things like I love getting my feet scratched. Totally. If you could say, like, I want you to do, like, 90% of my feet. Absolutely. Okay? Yeah. And that's when she got to the legs and feet. I was just like, oh, wow.

Wow. Yeah. Wow. That's great. Because when we were in here, she just did my back. Right. And arms and stuff like that. So I got the full treatment. It was excellent. I think I would like that. I think I would love it. Yeah. You guys should book a session with her. We'll do a couple sessions, Casey. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Now go somewhere else. But it's called Apple and Eve. And you guys found out about her through... She was on Fox 29. Is that what it was? Marissa was the one who hunted her down. Yeah, it was great. So thank you, Eve. We had a great time. That was the one...

pseudo-vacation type thing I did. The rest of it was all just housework. I was going to say, I saw you on Saturday. I was down the shore and you were down the shore and I just kind of rode my bike over and popped in and you guys were blitzing the house. Yeah, it's what Casey calls blitzing the house as you do. It's all right, everybody, all hands on deck. We're cleaning. We're going top to bottom cleaning everything and we did that. I am the hand on deck when I was blitzing and I did it and listen...

I actually always consider this time off that we take as the spring cleaning time. And Preston, I was rocking them bagsters like nobody's business. Bagsters. Bagsters. I did two bagsters and yeah, did the basement so much so that I took

I took pictures of the garage. Like it was that clean? Oh, throwing out and charity donations. And I kept it going. And I was listening to books on Audible. And it was in the zone. It was fantastic. I want to ask about the Baxter because I think I need one. I did some spray cleaning as well. I took down a basketball hoop that was just...

It had seen its best days. Yep. But I'm like, well, now how do I get rid of this post and this pole and this thing? And so Baxter can take that? Here's the one thing. It'll take about 3,000 pounds plus. Okay. The only thing that would... You have to be able to make sure that the straps meet at the top. So if you can pull it up over that, because the truck comes...

and then extends out the arm, hooks the bag, and then lifts it into the dumpster. And it has a fairly long reach on it. But that mother effer holds a lot.

And it's really, I mean, that was throwing in heavy crap and it pulled it up no problem. I actually wanted to let Casey and Nick and Marissa know. Because Casey and I had to work a couple of days, I wanted to do something for spring break-ish. But just around here and I was looking for something different that I never did. I took Jace to Camelback.

and did the indoor water park and all that stuff. Oh, dude. Yeah, it was awesome. Isn't it great? It was so great. Did you guys stay overnight? We did. Oh, that's great. We stayed two nights. My cousin and her kids came from Long Island, and Jason and I went, and yeah, we did. We ate at the restaurant. They have this mountain coaster thing outside that we were like, yeah, we'll do that. That sounds cool. Did you drink while skiing? No, but the mountain coaster was awesome. It was like...

way more exciting than I thought it would be. It's like basically a little roller coaster that you control the speed of. Oh my gosh. I always wanted to do that. It was so cool. Always wanted to do that. Yeah, it was great. Two questions. First, are they switching over from winter to summer stuff? Because they...

I think they're in sort of this lull right now. Yeah. So like all of the snow is melted, but everything, it's currently warmer. Everything inside was open. That outdoor mountain coaster was open. I don't think any of the other outdoor stuff was opened yet. Um, so we did all of the, the inside stuff, but I mean, it like down to like the desserts that the kids were getting, like you should, these milkshakes that were giant. And yeah, they had all like activities in the lobby for the kids. Donut making, uh, they could make these little like, um,

where you pour the sand in the bottle, like the different colors of sand. It was just a bunch of activities, so it was fun. The thing that Casey and I kept talking about was just how massive it is. I couldn't believe how the entire complex is just huge, and there's just no shortage of stuff to do. Oh, and I had...

beautiful view. I mean, I was looking at it and like I said, the snow was all melted but had the slopes been open, my view was the slopes. I'm sure you could see people skiing if you were there in the winter time. Yeah, so I loved it. Nick, they were saying that they closed down for

Because they do just at the end of the ski season before they turn it over that they actually close down, close down. Right. And they clean everything. Right, right. They blitz the compound essentially. And then it becomes Camel Beach. Mm-hmm. That's all. When does it become Camel Toe? Ah! Pfft!

they're working on that right now that's a new uh that's a new uh attraction for next year i believe uh and by the way since we're also mentioning uh clients and you guys have uh j-dog junk removal they they had come oh they did yours to take some oh they're awesome bed away and stuff like that so i want to thank those guys for uh part of my cleaning up project which definitely glad i did it it gets it off your your mental plate you don't have to worry about it and it was

kind of zen, you know, like you were saying. I just kind of got in the zone and did what I needed to do. Every spring for me is some sort of spring cleaning project. Or, you know, I built pantry doors over the last weekend. So it's either some sort of project project and or a

cleaning. And that's how it's been for as long as I can remember. That's what my spring break is. You do it ahead of the summer, right? You get everything in shape. And I love that. It's what you do. Yeah, because you don't have to deal with it in the summer then. Right. Yeah, I'm mad that I didn't do it before because I did the garage clean out as well. I'm mad that I didn't do the before after of that. Because that's the

Oh, pictures? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I did find myself going out and admiring my work in the garage and the landscaping. I'll send some of the pictures of my... I showed you a few of them. Yes. You were super proud of that. I did some serious trimming as well, so got all that done, which was great. Listen, we have a couple more minutes to mention something. And today, we haven't really taken advantage of it. Today, the 21st day of April is...

is talk like Bill West in day. Bye, get off. He does. I haven't talked to Bill in a while, man. No, no. He and I were in traffic together. It's a thing you do. It's just a thing we do. We like to drive around Haverford. Let's go find traffic.

No, no, no. We were in a traffic light together and it wasn't until the last minute where he was making a left on the Haverford, I was making a right on the Haverford, that I realized that it was him. But I think I'm probably the one who has seen him. You see him at the gym occasionally. Matt Cord was just, last week was saying, or the week before was saying, he catches Bill. Bill had called me one time and he was in the neighborhood, but I had to cut out. I wanted to hang with him and see how everything's going. But I think in the

Nailing retirement, Bill Weston gets the award for loving retirement like nobody's business. He's like a superhero landing. Absolutely. He is loving. And honestly, I thought he was enough of a workaholic that it would be a hard transition, but he's eating it up. Listen, my buddy Will is the same way. He's loving it. Loving it.

He said, every day is Saturday, but you have to be careful that every night isn't Saturday night. That's great advice. You got to be careful of it other than that. When you're on vacation, when I'm on vacation, not when everyone is on vacation. When I'm on vacation, I have to...

Meter. Meter. You know what? Tonight's not the night for drinking. Tonight's the night for smoking. Yeah. I thought about that too. One of the nights. Yeah. And then I was like, nah. One of the nights? Yeah. Was there a fair amount of imbibing on your time down? Yeah. Yeah. But I mean, I did it smartly. I got done when I needed to get done. And then it was a few cocktail times and I'd back off at the right time. And yeah, it was great. But-

But today is Talk Like Bill Weston Day and we haven't done it one time yet. I do miss hearing from Bill. Yes. His Bill-isms and just the way he presents himself. My favorite was he came out to the Christmas Miracle broadcast and in only a way Bill can do botched...

The game we had him come out for? He was prepped for the categories. He had done it the year before. Yeah, and did it. I didn't think I needed to re-explain it to him. He didn't care. He did not care. And that's the joy of his retirement. He ruined the bitch. He gives zero Fs. And it was hilarious. I need you to stop talking and listen to me.

If a bank is ruined, is it still ruined if we can make fun of it afterwards? No. That is our fail-safe. A lot of people's fail-safe involves a plan that actually gets your desired result in a different way. Our fail-safe is...

Everything including cluster Fs is exactly the desired result. You know what though, Nick? Because I was the one who was his conduit for... So I felt a certain way about... But it was your fault? It was my fault that I didn't go over the logistics...

I just, you know, I said it and forget it. Just, you know, well, we've done this before. But in hindsight and in retrospect, I didn't do a good job. Hey, do you think this is from Bill? It says, life is good and still love listening to you bozos. Bill W. Well, let me text the number. We got the number here. Give it out on the air. Let's go. Have him zoom in. For old time's sake, I don't know if you can find it or not, but you pretending to be Gary...

Talking to Bill. Yeah. You happen to have that. It is him? That's him, yeah. Oh, all right. Tell him to zoom in. Bill, you should zoom in. Okay. Because our phones don't work anymore since you left. Yeah, Bill, we've done some improvements since you left. We got rid of the phone system and the internet. Yeah.

Text the word Zoom. We literally have to tell them this. 610-660-9333 and then we'll send you a link and then we can Zoom you. Marissa has his number. I'll text it to him. By the way, I saw actually a bunch of tumbleweeds in Bill's old office. It just sits inert. There are entire parts of this building where literally cobwebs are forming. There's nothing back there? There's Gina? That's because positions have been eliminated. Yeah.

Where Matt is, it's like Matt has a little desk and that's pretty much it. I think Gene is there sometimes, but not all the time. You go stand there and you hear, you actually hear that. I used to work here. The guy writes up on a mule press and with pots cranking.

I used to work here. I used to work here. Wait, what's our phone number? Because that changed too. 610-660-9333. Yeah, there we go. He can't call that, right, Kenny? He can Zoom. He has to text the word Zoom to that number. Do we have it anymore, Casey? I'm looking for it. Oh, man, if we lost that. We should not have. I just, I don't know how I... Well, part of the package was we had to also get rid of Cherish Audio Files with the internet.

We went with the platinum package. What would I label that as? It's got to be under Gary something. I did Gary. I did Weston. Prank call or something? God damn it. God damn it. Yeah, I...

I don't even know. I don't even know. And you guys just talk amongst yourselves while I'm talking. No, it's all good. We actually should take a break because we need to come back and be in time for Valerie Bertinelli. But maybe we can put it all together after Valerie. We'll panel Valerie with Bill. We only have Valerie for a couple of minutes anyway. Yeah, we have some other things to do. And I sent him the Zoom link. So, Bill, if you want to Zoom in with us, we can do it after Valerie, I guess? Yes. Valerie, it's all on me. Please.

I'm the same boy I used to be. Let's take a break and come back in a moment, and we'll get Valerie Bertinelli on. And you never know, we might get Bill Weston. We'll have to see. But we have John Laird and another shot at winning $1,000 too with Preston Steve's 20 Money. Stay put. We'll be right back. It's MMR's Local Shots, Artist of the Month.

And she now has a new title available.

to her many titles first time ever yeah game show host yeah that's pretty sweet on on the game show network exactly and it's called bingo blitz and you can catch it weeknights at 7 30 please welcome the amazing valerie burton hi good morning all how you doing we're great so how does it feel to now like i said have the title game show host to add to your list of accolades i

I never thought of it that way. I guess I am kind of racking up some titles here. I mean, my favorite title is Wolfie's Mom. Nothing can really beat that. But a game show host, you know, Food Network. I love it all. Actress. I still want to do some acting. So but I flip and love this game show so much. I had the best time filming it.

Listen, real quick, and just a sidestep for a moment, but Wolfie's going to be in town on the 10th. He's playing our big festival concert that WMMR is putting on, and he's doing a private show for our listeners only on Monday, May 12th. And may I say... Oh, you guys are so lucky. Well done. You've done good. You've done good. That kid is amazing. He's so brilliant, isn't he?

He is. I mean, we had him once before and everyone loved, you know, that he had a limited library at that time, but he's added to it. And he is a rock force, man. And I remember... Oh, he really is. Quick question. Obviously, we'll talk about the game show, but, you know... Oh, let's just talk about one

Well, early at the beginning, you know, as is always the case when someone is the child of someone who's achieved something of note and obviously, you know, his father. But then he quickly established himself. Was that a little bit painful for you as mom having to watch him endure sort of the side eye glances of people who didn't understand just how freaking talented he is?

Oh, my God. Yes. Yes. But I got to say, I'm so impressed with the way he gracefully went through all of it, used his sense of humor. It's pretty harsh. I mean, people to make opinions about someone. I mean, Ed has a very big shadow, you know, but Ed was also next to me, Wolfie's biggest fan. So I don't know. I mean, I think Wolfie.

Wolfie has proven himself to be quite the musician, the songwriter, the singer, the guitar player, the drummer. I mean, everything. I almost called him a boy. I know he's a man, but he's still my baby. Understood. Well, he is a force for, I think, the future of rock, and we're thrilled. But now on to the game show. Yes. Bingo Blitz. So I love this idea because this is apparently it uses the –

common um you know mechanism of bingo but it incorporates trivia as well correct

Yes, and I think that's what makes it so much fun is because everyone knows how to play bingo, right? And it's super easy. It's kind of like a game of luck. There's not a ton of skill involved. But the only way you're going to get bingo balls is if you answer the trivia questions correctly. And the trivia is so much fun. And the way the writers had a really amusing time coming up with a different way of doing it, of writing the trivia questions, like putting out the four answers first.

And you think that it's going to have this theme, but it ends up being something that takes you...

Makes your brain do a fart for a minute. Brain fart, yeah. It's a lot, a lot of fun. And it's one of those game shows that I think the best game shows are the ones that you love to play at home and play along. And this is definitely it. Well, here's the thing about hosting game shows. Being a host of this show, we play games regularly. And I'm the guy who has to play the host. There is a tempo. There is a rhythm you have to get into as a game show host.

And it is a learned skill. It is not one you can just throw at anybody and they can do it and keep it entertaining, keep things moving. Did you guys have to do several rounds of mock shows to try and get your rhythm down to make this thing flow properly? Yes, we had and have amazing producers that helped me all through that process.

Rain was very beneficial. He really, really helped me with the timing. He was always in my ear when I was actually filming the show. We did some mock rehearsals here in LA before we went to Georgia to shoot the episodes. And in Georgia, we did a day of rehearsals just to get me into the rhythm. But then once we started filming with actual contestants, it took off pretty quickly. We ended up doing six shows a day and I

I had the best time. I was like, let me at him. This is so much fun. Yeah, you know, one of the things, it's as much as moving the show along and servicing the show, but it's also...

How you respond when a contestant gets the answer wrong and so that you're not repeating the same thing over and over again. You're a personable though. You know, obviously, you know, you're an actress. You've got stage time like nobody's business. But all of that aside, what game shows did you love that informed your knowledge of game shows and how you wanted to approach this?

I love the humor. I loved Password when Betty would be on old, old-time shows. Yes. I loved Family Feud, Hollywood Squares. I loved where you got to see people's sense of humor, and you got to see people win a lot of money. You know what I really couldn't believe, because I hadn't done this before? I couldn't believe how

badly game show network wanted to give away money they really like they were they were almost more upset when someone didn't win than the actual contestant was well it was it was really fun to see them really be encouraging and want people to win yeah that's part of it people want to see people win you know if it's just a constant state of losing you start to lose your viewers

Oh, is that why? I just thought they were being really nice people. Valerie, you mentioned Hollywood Squares, obviously, you know, your time on television through the years. You had to have been asked to be a part as a celebrity contestant because they were doing that on Pyramid and on, you know, just show after show after show. I did $10,000 Pyramid. I did Hollywood Squares. I did Family Feud. I did Match Game. Yeah, I did all those in the 70s.

I think it was mainly in the 70s, maybe some in the early 80s. Way back in the old days. Speaking of the 70s, I don't know if this is true or not, but is December the 50th anniversary of One Day at a Time?

You guys, it is. Wow. I cannot wrap my brain around that. I can't. I had a massive crush on you, as did All America at that time. The show was Norman Lear. It's got to seem otherworldly at this point. It does. It was such a huge, momentous moment.

piece of my life. My life changed after that. I was one of the lucky ones that got to work with Norman Lear and be protected by him. Because the business is super duper hard and it can destroy you if you don't have the right protection around you. And I was really blessed with the best people. Bonnie, Pat, Norman, Mackenzie and I still speak and Glenn Scarpelli, we still speak. I just, I'm really...

like amazing people that I got to know. Have you been contacted? Is there anything planned for that? Uh, uh, well, unfortunately Norman is gone and Bonnie is gone and Pat is gone. You know, it's, it's me and Mac. So we'll reach out to each other, but,

it's, it's sad. It's just like, we can't do a reunion of hot in Cleveland without Betty. Yeah. It doesn't work. Yeah. I guess that's true. So, so with the show now it's on at seven 30 and, and is there an extended run on it? Do we know, I mean, is, is this sort of the test phase or no, I mean, we did 40 episodes. I hope we do more because I've,

I can't remember having this much fun and so much work in like 10 days, but yet having a blast doing it. Great people to work with. It's a terrific network. They do what they do really well. I hope it gets picked up. We'll see. You got to watch it, though. Yes, we will. Absolutely. Will Wolfie be spreading the word about the game show as well? Is that part of being a child of Valerie Bertinelli? No, no.

I think he just wants to do his own stuff. He's very proud of me and he's always encouraging and he's, you know, always giving me a, you know, way to go mom. But no, I, we, we definitely keep, well, I was going to say we keep our business separate, but I can't help being one of his biggest fans. Yeah. I noticed like immediately the first plug you give went to him. I can't help it. I'm just so

I'm damn proud of him. She's going to go see him in Phoenix before he plays here in Philadelphia. So this is a formal invitation, Valerie, for you to come and join us at the MMRBQ with Wolfgang. I love Philly. It's near and dear to my heart. I was born in Wilmington, Delaware, so I have been to Philly a lot. I absolutely love you guys out there in good old Philly. Well, listen, we wish you well. You're going to do great. It's called Bingo Blitz weeknights on Game Show Network at 730, and it stars Valerie Bertinelli. Thanks, Valerie.

Thanks. Have a great day. Love her. Love her. She's great. I was thoroughly in love with her as well, Steve. She was such a fresh-faced, beautiful, cute, awesome, fun person. You remember there were a number of celebrities that made appearances on that show. Mark Hamill was one of her. It was Schneider's

And before Star Wars broke, he was on that show. Hey, and I kind of, before we did the interview, I kind of winced for a moment. Because I realized something. I left something out of the entertainment news. I had set this aside. And I meant to put that in. While we were gone, Wink Martindale passed away. That's right. And speaking of game show hosts, as soon as we were having her on, I'm like, son of a bitch, I forgot to mention that. Wait.

Yeah, Tic-Tac-Dough ended up being his longest run on a game show. And I love that show. Tic-Tac-Dough was great. Me too. It was a fun one. And by the way, it's coming back. This is Tic-Tac-Dough, right? Yeah, but Tic-Tac-Dough is coming back. Yeah, we're having a host, a new host on, right, Case? I thought I saw on the calendar. Who is it? You booked it. Yes. I'm going to look it up. It's coming up in the next week or so. It's happening.

Hang on, he was 91 years old, by the way, and he started off in radio. He did small town radio and started there. I believe his brother is also, who's his brother? Another famous game show host. Really? Yes. Oh, it wasn't mentioned in his obituary that I'm reading here.

Brooke Burns is going to be on the show next week, and she's the new host of Tic-Tac-Toe. Slightly better looking than Wink Martindale. And there is another Wink Martindale in this universe. He was a defensive coordinator for a number of years in the NFL. You're talking about rapid eye movement McGillicuddy? No, no, no. His name is Wink Martindale.

So, by the way, the wink thing, I was curious about that, too. Right. Because, you know, is his brother named Koff or sister Spit? Yeah, yeah. No. So his nickname, which he went by for his entire career in 2014, he told ABC News, when I was a kid in Jackson, Tennessee, one of my playmates, a guy named Jimmy McCord, couldn't say Winston. That is his real, that is he was born Winston Conrad Martindale.

And he said he couldn't say Winston. He said, which is my given name. And he had a speech impediment and it came out sounding like Winky. So Winston turned into Winky. And then I got into business and Wink it was. And it served me well. And I just kept Wink all these years. There you go. Yeah. I thought that was kind of a nice little story there. And now he's gone. But he and the Pope will have something to talk about. He was 91 years old. They made it a little longer than the Pope did. Yeah. But, oh, and here's another notable thing. And then we're going to get to our guest.

But he was at 17 years old. He was a disc jockey and he worked at WHBQ in Memphis. And that station notably played Elvis's first record for the very first time. They played That's Alright on July 10th of 1954, leading Martindale to call Presley's mother and invite the singer in for a chat. Elvis soon arrived at WHBQ for his first

first interview and wink martin how'd you get that stupid name is the one who conducted that interview that's legendary that is very cool yeah i had no idea that was oh well this has got the name of the devil that was about him that he was uh that um you know yes he was at the center of the beginning of rock man so all right we have another man who is the center of uh rock

He rocks our world. Has been for the longest time. Are we playing some audio? Ladies and gentlemen. Oh, yes. Mesdames et messieurs. Damen und Herren. From what was once an inarticulate mass of lifeless tissues, may I now present a cultured, sophisticated man about time.

Wow, ladies and gentlemen, it's an honor joining us via Zoom this morning. It's his day. We talk like him on this day. Bill Weston! Wow, that's great. Awesome, man.

I was listening to the show and I didn't realize the significance of today. How's the audio? Is the audio okay? The audio is great. Solid. What is that? Program director to the core. He's curious about the audio, making sure it's okay. It looks like you're in the music room of a radio station, Bill. You've got loads of CDs.

I'm in my office. I got my microphone and my boom and all my other kind of stuff. I don't use it at all. Where's your framed picture? Yeah.

Huh? Where's our framed picture? Yeah, of the Preston and Steve show. Wait, I don't have a picture of you guys, but I do have a three-legged stool. It was a gift. We all signed it. We got to get you a barn door one of these days. Yeah, we do. Oh, into his office. One of those doors that slides across. Oh, my God. Bill, what do you use that mic hookup for? Why do you have that there? Was that for remote broadcasting or what?

I won a lottery when the engineering department was cleaning out their closet where Rodney had like 39 different pieces of everything. Yeah. And I put my name in a hat and they gave me an audio processor. Right. So I've got this nice mic processor. I said, well, I should have a microphone and a mic stand. And I use it on some Zoom, but...

It was just easy to use the phone for this little impromptu here this morning. Listen, and we were talking earlier. I don't know if you're the full conversation, but I posited the notion that you are in the hierarchy of people I've seen really do retirement right. You seem to be loving it. Are you, in fact, loving retirement? He's wearing a robe, dude. Look at him. He's got a robe on. I'm in my robe. I'm drinking my coffee.

You know, reading the newspaper, listening to you guys. No, I'm I appreciate I I'm I'm very happy. I'm very content. Yeah. And I'm not watching daytime television. Apologies to Valerie Bertinelli. You're working out every day or what? Yeah. I go to the gym every day in the morning.

And sometimes, well, I was on the bike yesterday. Beautiful day. Of course. Travel plans are a little on hold. Connie just had a new hip. Oh, wow. Yeah. But she's doing great. And so life is good. Life is good. So how is the average Bill Weston day spent outside of the exercise in the morning?

Well, it's like that takes me. I do. I do have two hours at the gym. So I get home. I have a little bit of lunch. I will go out on my front porch and I will have a daily cigar. You are. This is this is this is this is this is this. But like I've told so many people, you've got to have something to do. You're standing in direct refutation of that. You're doing the classic sitting on the porch and yelling at kids to get off your lawn.

There's this one guy, he goes by every day with his little Yorkie, you know, we have a conversation. You know, look, I was trying to book a river cruise through actually Jim Antez's wife who does travel. Oh, she's great, yeah. Yep. But that's kind of been put off. I do have a big motorcycle trip planned for the first week of June. Are you going to Matt Lockfest in Georgia? Yeah.

I don't know what that is. Just keep going. Bill, the last time we had you on, I think it was probably a Christmas miracle. And we were chatting with you about retirement and things that you miss. And you mentioned how much you miss the people, which was really sweet. And I appreciated that. But I wanted to know, do you miss concerts? Do you miss the music aspect of working on the radio station? Or does that work for you?

You know, a lot of times I would go to shows because they were kind of halfway between something I wanted to see and something that, well, it might be good, right? And, you know, Jim over at Live Nation had set me up with a pass and I'd go to a show that turned out to be

Good, right? And sometimes it was like four songs in and I'm out the door. I haven't seen that many. You know, I've gone to some club shows. I am going to go see the Hooters because my friend Willie Nile is opening up for them. And there's like two groups I really love. That's at the Met coming up. But I miss, you know, the frequency, right? Because I haven't been to...

as many shows as I used to when I was employed and had my hand out to Live Nation all the time. Do you miss assaulting Bon Jovi? When you got his mic pack caught in your belt and nearly snapped his neck. Yeah, I know you miss that kind of stuff. So I'm online yesterday and somebody posted this tribute to Ted Bax or Ted Knight. Yeah. Right?

And it was this story about, you know, this guy who played a character whose ego far outweighed his talent, right? You know, they talk like this. I'm like, oh my God.

How did I become with Ted Knight? You know, but I think one of the most telling things is such a moment is why we love you. You you you came in and you came in. All right, everybody. And then you stop you. You got it. I actually do talk. Yeah. Yeah. Dear God, I actually do talk that way. Is it the start of meetings usually that we would get that delivery? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, how did I start this conversation? Good morning, everybody. That's it. That's it. Well, listen, we're thrilled that that's that. I mean, again, you're you're we hold you up now as as the person who is enjoying retirement the most besides your friend. Oh, well, yeah. Same thing. Yeah. Yes. My buddy wills retired now. And he told me that every day is Saturday. But we have to be careful that every night is not Saturday night.

That's a good motto. While we have you on, can we get a couple of Bill Weston's greatest hits from you? Some of our favorite sayings, possibly. Preston, I need you to close your mouth and stop talking. Yes. Third leg of the stool, barn door. Yeah.

Oh, that kind of stuff? Yeah. Well, today in our next segment, as you reach for the low-hanging fruit. Thank you. Please do not think of the barn door as you live your privileged life. Yes, your privileged life. How's Dr. Mike? Has he given you any proctology? Privilege? I've got an appointment next week.

Good for you. His birthday's on Wednesday. We wish him a happy birthday today, but apparently it's not until Wednesday. Well, he's that huge a figure that he needs a couple of days spread to celebrate the birthday. Definitely. I will say, as we wrap this segment up, because I think it's really kind of dipping into BC Plus territory.

It really is enjoyable listening to the show most days, not every day. It's like because I'm retired, I don't have to. But when I do, it's because I want to. And, you know, the camaraderie, how you guys converse and how you prep interviews. And it's still so good and so enjoyable. And kudos to you on your upcoming 20th.

anniversary. Please think of the program director that hired you. We will. I think Chuck is doing an awesome job. He is. Challenging situations. I love that guy. I love you guys. It's great to see you this morning. We were talking about your office, which now looks like Capone's vault when Geraldo broke the wall.

It hasn't been touched. I mean, it's just nothing in there. And that whole area of the building where you were is just kind of like an old man's land. Yeah. On this end of the speakers, things sound great. Good, good. Thank you, buddy. All right, we love you too, Bill. Thanks for checking in, man. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.

So long. Enjoy your day. So long. Farewell. Auf Wiedersehen. Goodbye. Shoot, we were dipping into D, C-plus territory. Wow. B, C-plus. Oh, it was B, C-plus? It was either a B or a C-plus territory. All right, I thought it was D. No.

Which might be the lowest grade he ever gave us. Yeah, I don't think we ever got one of those. No. Oh, God, I'm sure we got tons of those. I did. Yeah. They do. Kathy always screwed up the grade curve. Yeah, Steve would do something wrong and then Kathy would get in trouble. That was always the best thing at our meetings is, you know, I would say something that Bill wouldn't like and

And he would somehow or another turn it around to Kathy. And then I would just look at Kathy and lock eyes and go, uh-huh. I guess someone's on the rag. He thought we were joking about it. Like he didn't realize for a while that he was actually doing it. My favorite, all-time favorite was Steve said something on the air about Bill. And he said to me, you laughed a little too hard. Yes. Yes. But you were laughing.

You laughed the hardest. I was like, is this for real? I'm getting in trouble for what came out of Steve's mouth. It's often the case. So absolutely hilarious. Marissa did find the audio, by the way. So the only issue is that she had to lift it off of a Daily Rush tape.

And so it's us playing it back so you can hear us kind of like giggling in the background. So hang on. We have lost forever the original audio of the Gary Lauer, Casey pretending to be Gary Lauer call to Bill. I would be so bummed out if that were the case. I know. Wow. All right. Well, I'll play what we have and we'll see if it's worth listening to. But this was legendary. And we rediscovered this one day. We were like, what is this? When did we forget about it? It's got to be.

15 years ago. Yeah, something like that. All right, here we go. Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? I'm looking for Gary Lauer. This is Gary. Gary Lauer, this is Bill Weston at WMMR. Bill Weston! Hey, Bill! Hey! Hey, Nightmare Bill Weston! Hey, settle down. We need to talk. This is kind of a serious call. Oh, Bill Weston!

I keep... You're calling my phone. Well, I had to chase it down from a couple different people to get to talk to you. It's about...

It's about what happened at the Preston and Steve Mixer at Parks. Oh, I had such a great time that night. I forgot my teeth. I didn't have my jam. Yeah, hey. Well, here's the problem, Gary. Oh, wait. Is there a problem? Oh, I didn't bring my camera. I had a picture taken with Kathy Romano, but I didn't get a camera and I don't have email. Can Kathy print me out a picture because I got a picture with her?

And I got a picture with Marissa. I couldn't find Casey anywhere. But I got a picture with them. And I don't want to... Email! Email!

Gary, I need you to stop talking and listen to me. Gary, I need you to stop talking and listen to me. All right? Bill's trying my best. How you behaved at the mixer is causing problems.

It was reported that you were either inebriated, high, or a combination of both. I was so high and so drunk. I had such a good time, man. There it is. Is this Kate? Oh, my God.

You just called the hotline. I need your consent. Can we play this one here? Everything except the f***ing asshole part. That was...

Such a great moment. He was never good with phone numbers. You gave him a hotline number a couple of times. Yes. And remember, in the very beginning of us working here, he asked me for my phone number, and I gave him 867-5309. I put 215 in front of it. And years later, he's like, I tried calling you at home. I was like, what? I go, I don't even have a phone number.

even have a landline he was like yeah it's 215-867-5309 oh my goodness the thing the thing though is that gary had asked to get pictures printed up from that thing so i remember him asking those were all predicated on things that gary was actually legitimately asking for that case was uh case was covering his bases and said the right things and just the uh the delivery it wasn't even

good it was a horrible impression oh my god it was terrible have we heard from him in a while no okay so yeah um

Before our issues with our own phone lines, there was... Oh, yeah. There's no way he's going to do it, too. We had done a welfare check. Okay. And for some reason, his phone wouldn't connect to our phone lines. I wonder if that was the beginning of it. Was it plugged in? Yeah. No, but I had actually spoken with him. He was okay. He was alive. It won't work. Yeah. Did you want to give him Bill's home number? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

We could do that now. He's not our boss anymore. I'm going to give you the number on this Dixie cup. I mean, we can't even do a welfare check with him now because he doesn't have Zoom, right? No, I doubt it. He's not a computer. No, because we call the landline when we call. He's Microsoft Teams.

Wait, that was another great Bill Weston moment when Gary Lauer was his assistant. We've set Gary up outside of Bill's office for the day. And I think we left like after the show. We were like, all right, see ya. And Gary stayed all day. Joke's over for us. It's going to continue for you for the rest of the day. I guess Bill didn't realize he could have told him to leave if he needed to. It was so great. Yeah, we set out a little desk in front of Bill's office.

And we had a phone that wasn't connected and Gary had a keyboard that didn't go anywhere. He just pretended like he was typing loads and loads of data. He has a snow globe for no particular reason. Yeah, on his desk. God, that was the old office too before we had any renovations here. So we gave him his 50th birthday. It was the large vagina on his window. On his windows, yeah. Oh, wow, wow. Ah, the good old days. Oh, no.

I did want to mention something else as we're going to switch gears. It was 420 yesterday. And so on the heels of that, I saw this study. It was research that was done at University National Autonomia in Mexico. Finds that people who regularly smoke marijuana actually have more empathy than the rest of the population.

The study shows that chronic users are more capable of sensing how others feel with brain scans backing that up. They reveal that the region of the brain linked to empathy, the anterior cingulate, is particularly active in cannabis smokers. And because of this, researchers think that stoners are better able to sense someone else's emotional state. Accurately, they're saying?

Yeah, they're saying that they're more in tune with it. They're more in touch with empathy, with understanding how somebody else might feel and being empathetic. You probably want a hit, right? Yeah. In a sense, you want a hit. Always ready to share for those who may need it. Was 420 overshadowed by Easter yesterday? Because I didn't really hear a whole lot about it.

I posted a very rare Instagram post yesterday in honor of 420. It was like the only thing that I saw on social media yesterday that was really celebrating it. Yeah, I think that Easter probably overshadowed that a little bit. And then the Pope had to go and die. The Pope went and died the day after. So it was a lot of things going on.

But, yeah. I celebrated with my friends. You observed. Observed. Yes. Study author Dr. Victor Olalade. It's close enough. Matthew believes that we could help those with social anxiety and other conditions that make it challenging to be around people. I don't know, man. Sometimes I get high. I don't want to be around people. Do you ever...

experience the paranoia that people talk about? Sure. How often? Well, the paranoia is usually... Oh my God, is that a cop? Is that a cop? That's a cop. I think I know who he is. It's that type of paranoia. The paranoia of...

Everybody knows you're high. That's the only paranoia that I ever feel. Not like, I got to get out of here. People are after me or anything like that. But the paranoia is, oh, they know you're stoned, dude. That's the only paranoia I ever suffer from. One time I was at a bar and it was Kentucky Derby Day.

and we had uh enjoyed some stuff outside of the bar and then we were in and then um they somebody at the bar was taking bets for the kentucky derby so i was like okay and so i don't know i gave like five bucks and i picked a trifecta and then steve i made eye contact with these other two people sitting at a bar and i had convinced myself that they were the fbi and that they were going to come and bust this place for illegal gambling right and i literally had somebody come and pick

me up and take me home oh my god that's how paranoid i got because the two the two feds at the end of the bar they were gonna bust me for my five dollar bet at maggie o'neill's we got him no but anytime that i that i do sample a um a new strain uh that i either haven't ever had before or haven't had in a while like i will get extra

Oh, really? Yeah, at the beginning. Now, after a few days spending with that, then you're a little better. You acclimate. Yeah, yeah, exactly. But it's like clockwork. Here's a new one. Oh, my God. I'm really high. Well, you know, Pierre talks about, you know, in yesteryear, the...

The THC level is a lot higher. It's stratospheric these days compared to what they used to be, correct? Yeah, to the grass. When you were smoking grass in the 60s and 70s, you weren't smoking the weed that you're smoking today. It's vastly different. But I still haven't tried that purple Urkel. Oh, yeah. You still have that? No, I still have it. And, I mean, he was in here, what, in December, I guess, probably. And I still haven't gotten around to smoking it yet. Have you tried the Lauer Power? The Gary Lauer Power Hour? Yeah.

Not yet. I would not trust me from Gary. Oh, he must be smoking a larb. It's definitely laced with something. Immediately. You make that noise as soon as you take a hit. Okay.

So they said, the study author said, although further research is needed, these results open an existing and exciting new window for exploring the potential effects of cannabis in aiding treatments for conditions involving deficits in social interaction such as sociopathy, social anxiety, and avoidant personality disorder among others. We need to do more research. Interesting. I did have a moment yesterday. I was...

we were at the shore and I was taking a walk, getting some exercise and a guy was riding a bike and he rode it past me and he recognized me and he goes, hey, he goes, hey, Presmo. He goes, hey, he goes, he goes, happy Easter and he's getting away from me and I go, happy 420. You know, I fired that at him and so he kind of half heard me so he spins his bike around and he comes back to me and as he gets closer, I notice he's wearing a hat that had a full on

Jesus symbol of some type on it. And I'm like, oh, I said happy 420 to the wrong guy. You're like, wrong person, sorry. Wrong guy, sorry. Happy Easter. You know what? Happy John 420. That's my favorite gospel. John 420. He was a fed.

He's going to bust me now. He's going to tell my parents. But they said these findings highlight positive effects of cannabis on interpersonal relationships and potential therapeutic applications for that as well. But yeah, I didn't spend much time on social media at all yesterday, so I didn't really...

see much in representation of 420s. Maybe I was the lone guy. You were the one guy. Hey, Easter Bunny, I assume, came to your house press, even for the adult kids? Kind of. Because Easter Bunny came to my house, but what I...

failed to realize is that I left the Easter baskets at home in Delco. And so the only thing that we had at our house to leave out for the Easter morning, Kathy, were a couple of cornucopias from Perky the Quirky Turkey. Oh!

So you left that out. So the Easter bunny put all the Easter candy in cornucopias. That's awesome. I love that so much. I knew you would appreciate that. By the way, are the large... Easter was heading ineluctably towards Christmas light with presents. Is that still a thing? Yeah, so my cousin and I, when we were at Camelback, were talking about it. And she's like, I blame you because you were the person, one of the people that did that. And I didn't scale back because...

It is Easter. Yeah. And I think that he was definitely like expecting a little more. He's like, oh, you didn't get the $800 scooter I wanted that was on sale? I was like, no, we didn't. Easter Bunny didn't bring that. So he was expecting. You've been priming the pump all these years. And I told him over and over again. I was like, look, you're not the Easter...

joke but I'm like the Easter bunny is not bringing you a scooter you've aged out well I was like don't get excited like there's not gonna be a scooter but I still feel like he walked downstairs and was like oh an Easter basket okay thanks mom where's the scooter coming from so yeah the Easter gifts have changed in their scope in our house so Carter got a giant jar of pickles

And Caleb got a giant bag of Dots pretzels. Uh-huh. Wait, Dot pretzels? Yeah, Dots. You don't know Dots pretzels? The most expensive pretzels you'll ever find? Casey, years ago, I mentioned, he's like, I'm not doing it. I ain't paying for that. I do it, but it is expensive, but they are good. They are really good. Okay, got it. And then Parker got a case of soda. There you go. Listen, whatever rocks your world. Yep.

It used to be like you'd get Christmas level. Parents were going, that is crazy. I'm like, come on. My parents never subscribed to that. They talked to the Easter Bunny quite a bit about it. And we never really... Maybe they would get like bubbles or a wiffle ball bat or something along those lines. But no scooters, no bikes, nothing like that. And you guys try buffets yesterday or going out for brunch or whatever. So my mom made reservations at a really nice restaurant and we went to it.

And for the first time, maybe in my adult life, we left because it was so expensive. Oh, my God. We sat down at the table. I felt bad. But the list price on the buffet was ridiculous. How much? 40? 50?

You can tell the price if you're not going to say where it is. $89 a person. What? For a buffet. It's a nice place. There was actually a guy who recognized me when I walked in and he said, hey, big fan of the show. I felt bad walking past him on the way out. Was alcohol included? No, Kathy. I won't even do a $45 buffet. I really felt bad walking out, but I also felt bad sitting there at the table thinking,

This is just not worth it. And to me, I don't know. It's not worth it. Buffets are already kind of. How expensive was this buffet? It was really expensive. It looked beautiful, Steve. I mean, like, honestly, if I were in a buffet mood, I would have hit it up pretty good. You can still only eat so much. Exactly. Even me, Kathy, I can only eat so damn much.

So did somebody fake a medical emergency? No, I was just like, guys, I'm not comfortable. And my mom asked. Jacked the price up to $89. My mom asked if we wanted to go. And I looked at my dad and our guest that was with us and my wife. And I was like, yeah, it's time to go. How many total? Five total. So you're talking $500 easily. Easily. Without alcohol. Yeah, without alcohol. I mean, if you want to go with the tax and everything. This is brunch? $500.

Now, in fairness, it was all you could eat. No, but was it brunch or was it dinner? It was brunch. We were there. Our reservations were at 2. And the place was packed.

It really looked very nice. I have nothing bad to say about this restaurant. It just, that was way, way overpriced. Oh my God, I can't wait to go to break so I can find out what restaurant it is. Yeah, I'll show it to you. I mean, 500 bucks. Stop and think about that kind of food too. And I've been, like I used to, we used to go, like the Mashaloo has a great brunch, but that was nowhere near. No, and if you're spending that amount of money,

To make it worth it, you have to eat until you're in pain. That's right. The menu items actually need to be sufficient enough, right? There's no filet mignon on that menu. There's no New York strip steaks on that menu. There's no lobster tail. It is... Well, there was really high-end stuff at the...

I know what you're saying. There was filet. There was a carving station. It was very nice. But to me it was not worth the dollar amount. With tip. If anybody got any beverages. It would have been over $500. Steve when we got there. I don't know.

you know my dad is older and just doesn't care much anymore so he was not dressed in his sunday best and uh many people at the restaurant were and so take your inner tubes and i was like yeah maybe this isn't the right place for us but nick like we went out to dinner i went out to dinner on thursday night and it was a really nice steakhouse and the steaks that we got we we ended up getting like the cheapest steak they had which was in your cheapest steak

It was a New York strip steak and they were $62 a piece for a 12 ounce. You know what I mean? But like,

And I don't know why I'm okay with paying $62 for that, but I wouldn't even think about it. Listen, we went to another restaurant and all five of us had a meal for under $100. So we went to Noody's, which I love. Noody's is a great restaurant. There's a whole bunch of them in the area. And there was one not too far from the first restaurant that we went to. And my dad ended up picking up the bill for everybody, which was super nice. But for all of us, it would have cost one person had we stayed at the original restaurant.

That's insane. I mean, you're not even tacking on booze. Exactly. Or tip. Yeah.

Wow. By the way, the restaurant that I went to on Thursday, it was just two of us and they included the gratuity already, which I was like, okay, well, thanks for doing the math for me. Normally it's a party of six or more or something like that. I always get screwed at buffets because Jace loves them. He thinks it's like the greatest thing. So no matter where we go, he's like, do they have a buffet? And I'm like, yeah, they do. And he's not, he doesn't,

So, you know, he'll eat enough. I mean, he's a teenager. But like, you know, and I'm also not going back for seconds, thirds, you know, like one plate of food is usually enough. For many, all you can eat is a challenge where all you can eat for most people is this is pretty much all you can eat. You know, like you're going to have what you eat normally and that'll be that. So make your selection. But for other people like, oh, yeah, here we go. Oh, totally. Contact Guinness. Yeah. Yeah. Wow, man.

Wow, man, that's crazy, Nick. I had no idea about that. And honestly, like, I felt terrible because we made reservations and we should have, but like, nobody checked the price in advance. Did you say why you were leaving? Yeah. Oh, you told them? Yeah, I told the server and the manager. Okay. And did they apologize? They apologized? Okay. There were people that were waiting for tables and somebody sat where we had been sitting right away, you know, so like the table didn't go unused. Right. Right.

That was me. But yeah, that's, yeah, if they were that packed. Christian gone table for two. Then they weren't missing you. Wow. All right. Well, anyhow, I guess a lot of people probably went through that yesterday. We're seeing some texts come up now. All right. Well, listen, we do want to take a break. And so you can get out and have a nice brunch.

We're going to have your chance to win $1,000. That'll cover you and a couple of people most likely. We have President Steve's 20 Money. So we'll take a break, come back in a second. We'll get to that as well as we doing Bizarre File now? Yeah. And we have John Larroquette. Like all these things are taking place. So we'll take a break and be right back. Stay with us.

So that is along shortly. But a couple things going on that I want to make you aware of before we dive into that. Number one, today's the last day for you to enter for a slot game.

at the President Steve Show side stage of the MMRBQ for live band Carrie O'Keefe. Yes. Oh. And yeah, so this is it. This is the final day that you can enter for that. And it's a YouTube link. It's easy to do. You can go to wmmr.com for all the details. But as Casey was saying, it's become this little thing that's just been attached to the MMRBQ that is...

So much fun. Yeah. So much fun. And it was kind of just dropped in our laps. There was a stage that was available to do something with, and it's now become this thing. And what I really love is the way the audience embraces these people that get up and kind of tap into their inner rock star and have a moment. And that first year we did it, we're like, is anybody going to come over here? It's off to the side. Are we just going to be by our lonesome? And there's a handful of people.

No, once the music starts, everybody starts gravitating over and you have this nice big audience to perform for. So it doesn't matter what level of a singer you are. Try it out and see if you're chosen. And if you are, not only will you get to get up on stage and sing a song with sidearm in front of that crowd, but also you get a pair of barbecue tickets. You get a four pack of tickets.

So we'll have 10 singers. We're giving away four packs of MMO barbecue tickets for those who went. So today's the last day you can get on board. So if not you, you know someone else who might be interested in this, let them know about that. And then the other thing I want to mention real quick is...

With MMRBQ, and we were talking to Valerie Bertinelli earlier this morning. She was going on and on about Wolfie, her son, from Mammoth, obviously. We were telling her that he's playing the show, and we're excited to see him once again. But also, there's this thing that's happening a couple of days after. On Monday at the Foundry, Pierre Robert is going to be hosting this interprint performance and Q&A webinar.

with Mammoth and with Wolfgang. And so this is a fully, by the way, full band, full plugged in show. That's awesome. Not acoustics, not a toned down version of it. This is their full on, full force performance. Yeah. That is a really cool thing. It's sponsored by AT&T and Chevy, AT&T Chevy and AT&T Subaru in Sellersville. And thank you to Sony BMG as well.

And the only way to get this, you got to win tickets. It's exclusive. We are the only ones that have tickets for that. And Pierre is going to have them starting today. Every day he's going to give away four packs of this. And there's another chance to win on the contest page. These things don't come along often. Yeah. It's pretty exclusive and pretty special. All right. It is now 10 o'clock. So that means that we can do this.

has been hit with five more criminal counts for an alleged pee spree at a hotel. Now that's good content. Kelly Tedford has been accused of damaging an assortment of items at a Marriott in Keene. Investigators allege that Tedford, who uses the handle Kinky Kelly on OnlyFans...

urinated on a hotel room's air conditioner unit, and relieved herself on a comforter, blanket, curtains, and a Bible. I saw this video of an OnlyFans model who took a dump in the middle of 30 people. It was amazing. She is also charged with defecating on the floor and placing the waste into the toilet tank, a frat boy favorite known as an upper-decker.

At the same time, the new misdemeanor counts were being filed. Tedford was named in an indictment charging her with felony criminal mischief for allegedly contaminating items at the farmhouse.

Food Co-op in King. Besides, you can tell that AI is writing her scripts. Investigators contended that Tedford recorded her vile antics for her $15 a month OnlyFans page, which is no longer online. Her Kiki Kelly page described her as a submissive person.

Pixie, Fetish Kink, Friendly, and Extremes 2. Her account also offered subscribers custom content and paid sexting sessions. Her OnlyFans account noted that her prior page, Petite Princess, got banned. While her Kiki Kelly page appears to have been deleted, explicit videos of Tedford remain online, including one clip showing her urinating on new garments in a clothing store changing room.

Tedford's Instagram page directs followers to an Amazon wish list that is filled with sex toys and lingerie. Her Instagram account states, get me something off this list and get free specialized content. Spoil me to get spoiled, baby. Kathy, they're saying that she's possibly the new Martha Stewart. She is scheduled for a May 8th arraignment and on the felony and misdemeanor charges as well. What a class act. And she don't.

So burglars tunneled through a concrete wall to gain access to a Los Angeles jewelry store, making off with at least $10 million worth of watches, pendants, gold chains, and other merchandise. Police said... $10 million! $10 million! $10 million! $10 million! $10 million! $10 million! Police said those were two witnesses. The heist happened Sunday at Love Jewels in the heart of downtown. Investigators were reviewing security camera footage

that shows the suspects entering the store from a large hole that they drilled from the property next door. Sorry, I know it's wrong, but I'm sort of nostalgic for these old-style jewelry heists.

Wow.

The TV station showed holes cut in a large safe, overturned jewel cases and an empty bottle of scotch.

Detectives examined the scene for fingerprints and DNA. You would think with all of the extra security devices available to you that there'd be stuff in place at this point to make this not a possibility. Yeah, I don't know what they did, but obviously if they're going to that great length of tunnel and millions of dollars, maybe they covered their bases. I don't really know.

All right, police in Indiana arrested a mother. They say confronted a teacher while wearing a firearm and sent her an email containing death threats because the teacher had assigned her daughter a project. Projects? I know.

What the hell is that? The project in question. Old tag. It was one about different flags, and one of them happened to be a pride flag. And that's what lit the whole thing off. Carrie Rivers was charged with felony possession of a firearm on school property and misdemeanor harassment via written communication for the incident that took place at the Valley Mills Elementary School. Rivers told police she was upset about a project assigned to her daughter, a sixth grade student at the school. Rivers said the assignment was about same-sex relationships.

Well, the teacher told police it was actually about different flags. One of them happened to be the rainbow pride flag. Rivers was also upset that the teacher has a same-sex relationship with a woman who was also a police officer. When Rivers confronted the teacher, a silent alert system was activated notifying the police about an irate parent of the school. Police arrived at the scene and noticed that Rivers had a holster

firearm on her waist. Would you ever pack heat for parent-teacher conferences? I never did that myself, no. Police say they removed the gun before interviewing her. Reverse claimed that she didn't realize the gun was on her when she was told it was a felony to be on school property with a firearm. I've had that happen. I went to a

Baskin Robbins with a bazooka on my back. I totally forgot. So sorry. Totally forgot. So light and yeah. Rivers said she had withdrawn her daughter earlier that day but returned to complain further about the incident. She also said that she was surprised that police were there to confront her rather than the teacher. She thought the police would be there to confront the teacher.

Rivers left the school and returned home where less than 30 minutes after later, she allegedly sent an email to the teacher. She said, you're a child, spelled incorrectly by the way, you're a child predator and your only hope is that your bitch ass wife that is a cop, otherwise someone else would have already dealt with you for your wrongs. You messed with the wrong family. I'll tell you that, so please say your prayers and kiss your kids goodbye at night and

And you never know when God says it's our time, so always be prepared. And she also reportedly wrote, sick, nasty teacher. You should never tell precious, innocent kids that it's okay to be in a same-sex relationship. Police were again contacted, and she was arrested on April 10th. So she's going to be in court this week. And...

That's all we have time for, folks. That's it. More Bizarre Files. Oh, man. Tune in tomorrow morning with more of the goodies. They keep coming. You like Doritos. You make more. Yep. All right. And that, we'll have to take a break. We haven't heard from John Larroquette, so I don't know what's up with him. Wait a minute. Do you think Marshall Warfield got involved?

Son of a bitch. She is. She might have. She is a sea blocker, that Marsha Warfield. Yeah, she's dynamite here. All right, we will take a break and come back in a second. We'll get to Lesson Question Trash and Music News. A reminder, your word for the 20 money, the presidency of 20 money is best. So you can enter that now. B-E-S-T. Come and get that thousand bucks.

That'll be at the Regal in King of Prussia. And so the question that you have to answer, very rarely will I ask a question, oppose one to you that was less than 10 minutes ago. Wow. Yeah.

What chain restaurant did Steve accidentally take a bazooka into? Oh. Normally I go back to the very beginning of the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What chain restaurant did Steve accidentally take a bazooka into? He said it at 10.06 a.m., six minutes ago. That's pretty close. No, I'm sorry. Twelve. Twelve minutes ago. I apologize. Twelve minutes ago. And.

And you need to text the word ZOOM to 610-660-9333 unless you already have the Zoom link. So just hit that Zoom link thingy and get on board. Can you believe this? Can you believe this? A thousand different things you have to do, but you may win a cool prize. And we'll do the trash while you're getting set. The trash business is a goal.

93.3 WMMR with Preston and Steve's Hollywood Trash. All right, Steve, we'll get some stories. What's going on this morning? Well, Lady Gaga's mic headset cut out multiple times during her Friday night performance at Coachella.

Fortunately, most of the audience had gone deaf from Freebasing's Zylazine. Dance mom star Abby Lee Miller, we all know her, refusing to support Kelly Hyland in her cancer battle, saying Hyland did not support her during her battle with cancer. Miller says her brush with death has really helped her to appreciate revenge. Oh, my God. And finally, Jelly Roll.

sharing an embarrassing moment on the Jennifer Hudson show about the time he crapped himself during an appearance. Even more embarrassing, it was during that appearance. Wow.

That's all you're trying to say. All right. Thank you, Steve. So the way things work now, there's a little delay here. Yeah. We used to have a system where we would, you know, go right. Almost immediately. To the call. Like immediately to the call. And even that would be like cutting it close. Yeah. But now we're not even cutting it close. Well, while we're killing time, Steve, that Jelly Roll appearance, I saw some of it on Jennifer Hudson. I love the entrance that they do before the segment. And he came out. Oh, he's not with that woman.

The Jennifer Hudson thing. They do it with most guests. He was going down the hallway and he just looks like he's a happy, good person. Jelly Roll. He just was having fun and he was having fun with all the staff right before the show. It was cool. It made me happy to watch his happiness. I didn't realize that's

I saw that video and I didn't put two and two together that that's what that was. Yeah. We just didn't have enough people here to do that. Right. Yeah. We would have to get, we'd have to hire more interns. No, we'd have to, like the line would have to like run to the, as the person was going. Yeah. From the back of the line. From the back of the line. It's like that scene in Hell Preston where they're reviewing the police in Jamaica. Yes. Yeah. And they just keep ducking down. Yep. Yep.

There was some dancing that happened while we were gone, by the way. We'll get to that in a moment. In the meantime, we have the lesson question. We have somebody on the line who may know the answer to this question. So let me refer to that again. What chain restaurant does Steve accidentally take a bazooka to? And we have we got dude on the line. Hey, dude, what's up?

Hey, sorry to bother you guys at work. It's all good, man. It just says dude's phone right here as you're identifying. I don't know. Hey, Sean. All right, Sean. What chain restaurant did Steve accidentally take a bazooka into, please? I believe that's Baskin-Robbins. Baskin-Robbins is correct. Yes, hang on.

You're a winner, bud. We're going to give you a four-pack of tickets to join Casey Boyd. See an advanced screening of Thunderbolts. That is coming up on April 30th at 7 p.m. at the Regal in King of Prussia. And it's brought to you by Marvel Studios Thunderbolts.

They're not super, they're not heroes, and they're not giving up. Only in theaters May 2nd. Get tickets now. And before we do music news, yes, there's a video if you haven't seen it yet. While Kathy and Casey were here, the rest of us on vacation, they had a little extra time and they decided to do a dance video. So they did it here in the studio. Kathy, thank you for...

I asked Kathy some questions about this. I'm like, I go, so what was that song? And she goes, oh, it's some song that Avery likes.

And I said, okay, he did the choreography. And she's like, Casey did. I'm like, okay, this is a full-on Casey Boyd production. This is all you. So my daughter is the one who turned me on to the song. The artist is called Role Model. The song is called Sally. But also the main dance move in the beginning and then when Kathy and I joined together is a dance move that I stole from when Avery was in Mamma Mia.

It was my favorite dance move of the entire production. I was like, I'm working this one into an Instagram dance. So everything was stolen. Well, no, we just repurposed it. And by the way, if you're going to go look at it or listen to it, just be careful because the song is so catchy. I sang it for like three straight days. Really? Right? Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, that's kind of what happened. She's like, oh, I like this one, you know, because, you know, I was driving her to home from school and she was playing a couple of songs and then that one came on. And then, you know, the the refrain goes Sally. And I was like, dude, that sounds like salad. I'm like, I'm going to do a video where I'm going to like have salad. She's like, don't do that. And then I was like, well, then fine. I'm going to work this one in, you know, this dance move. How does she feel about our video? Well, I had to guilt her into liking it.

I did this for you. I had to guilt her into sharing it on her stories. Oh, my God. You guilted your child into sharing it onto her Instagram? I was like, I noticed you didn't like it. Are you even putting it in your stories or anything? Just saying. He's the kid of the family. Here's the song, by the way. Please don't go far.

There's a feeling in my heart

All right, well, if you want to see it, it's now available on our social medias. Is it on the President Steve's social media account? It's on Instagram. Yep, Kathy and mine's social media. And by the way, I texted Kathy, I think yesterday, I said, the transition of when I go out of the screen and you come into the screen is so good. It is really, really good. That was your favorite moment? Yeah, because it was kind of unintentional. Like when I saw it, I was like, oh, wow, that actually really works. Yeah. Okay. And Kathy does a solo.

So you get that. Head whipping solo. I love She's So Full of Life. It's so great.

Steve's done with this. No, no, no. I would love to add something. I'm basking in the glory. Have you seen it? Yes, of course. I just didn't have any comment. I thought maybe you didn't dig it. No, no, no. I didn't know what to say. It's wonderful. It's a celebration of life and I'm reborn. Like the phoenix from the flames. It was just one take? Yeah, believe it or not. Get the hell out of here. We were sweating. We had to take our sweatshirts off after we were over. We did it like ten times.

They were dripping wet afterwards. So it took a lot of work. Well, that happens a lot. I wanted to do it on Thursday, but Kathy said we needed to be wearing the same color clothes and everything. So we did it on Friday. I'm glad she did. She was right. This is your angle for your dance videos. You did the one with Chuck with the robot costumes. It's true. Yeah. Eventually going to get around to all of us, I guess. I mean, all my comments were expended for that one. Preston, I laughed out loud at your comment when you said, oh my God.

Oh my god, Steve and I do the same thing when you guys are off. When you guys aren't here. We just don't film ourselves. We just do it for the joy of dance. Yeah.

All right, we got to get to music news. Here we go. Preston and Steve's Music News on 93.3 WMMR. It's brought to you by A.D. Moyer, trusted experts since 1939. A.D. Moyer Lumber, your professional source for decks, windows, doors, kitchens, millwork, and more. And you can visit them on the web at admoyer.com.

I think Marissa just brought this in. I didn't see this story until just now. But Dave Grohl made a surprise appearance at Coachella on Saturday night. And he was roaring with a much different type of backing band. He had the Los Angeles Philharmonic. And they performed two Foo Fighters songs together. The Sky is a Neighborhood and Everlong. And another surprise appearance.

It's all right. It's completely... When you have a surprise appearance, it's a surprise. It's a surprise appearance. Another surprise appearance was made later in the evening by actress... We're making words. Singer... Actress, singer Cynthia Erivo, who covered Princess Purple Rain as well. So that was a big deal. Oh.

And this marked the first time that Grohl has performed Foo Fighters songs since August of last year. He did, however, appear with the other remaining members of Nombrano to perform at Fire Aid in January of this year. Four months after public acknowledgement that he fathered a child out of wedlock. You all probably heard that I fathered a child out of wedlock.

At present, Foo Fighters do not have any scheduled concert dates. And I'd say I'm in the doghouse. So I touched on this earlier this morning, but Keanu Reeves is set to play the villain in an upcoming Weezer movie. Rivers Cuomo confirmed the movie is a real thing while appearing at Coachella last weekend. It will apparently be...

be a mockumentary style movie about the rivalry between Keanu's band Dogstar and Weezer. And the rivalry angle between the two bands was chosen because Weezer actually played their first show as an opener for Dogstar back in 1992. As for what else to expect, the movie is said to be a cross between Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Weird, the Al Yankovic story. I wonder if they can use any stock footage of the drummer's wife shooting at police. Yeah.

The movie is also set to star Juliette Lewis, Eric Andre, Johnny Knoxville, and Ben Schwartz, in addition to the band Weezer, of course. Bush has officially announced that their 10th studio album, I Beat Loneliness, is set for release on July 18th. I beat loneliness.

A preview song called 60 Ways to Forget People is already out, but the official lead single is scheduled for release on June 5th. The new album is produced by Gavin Rossdale and Eric Rahn, known for his work with Panic! at the Disco and Bad Omens. Bush is starting out on a worldwide tour, launching today in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. I'm trying to...

Think of the last album that I really was dialed into Bush. Right. You know? They performed in this studio with Piers, Gavin, and I forget the name of the guitar player, Chris, I think. And it was really good. And...

I've come around on Gavin because I remember when I worked for Pierre years and years ago, it was a really lame and quiet interview. Prima Donna-esque? No, just disinterested. Okay. And I think that he's turned into sort of a harder working artist. And I don't know. I really enjoyed when they were here. I won't talk to you until you explain that white patch on your beard. Oh, no. I will not conduct this interview until you explain how that happened. It does not occur in nature unless you're a skunk.

Puddle of Mud is announced. Their upcoming album, Kiss the Machine. What the hell is Wes Scanlon up to these days? Getting arrested. Getting arrested. Often. Set for release on May 2nd through... You'll probably heard I've been arrested many times. Pavement Entertainment's lead single, Beautimous, is currently available on major streaming platforms. And it is the first album from the band since 2023's Ubiquitous.

And includes... They're just pointing at words. So it includes nine songs in total and fans can also pre-order a limited edition CD and T-shirt bundle which includes a signed postcard from Wes Scantlin. This is our new album, Hippopotamus.

Sublime has announced an all-star tribute album titled Look at All the Love We Found, a tribute to Sublime set for release on May 9th. This expanded edition commemorates the 20th anniversary of the original 2005 tribute album featuring 36 tracks with contributions from artists such as Zac Brown Band, Pennywise, Jack Johnson, and Slightly Stupid with Stick Figure.

The album includes eight previously unreleased tracks offering fresh interpretations of Sublime's classics. Proceeds from the album will benefit agape families and organ-based non-profit supporting families impacted by incarceration. Okay, I don't know if it's agape or if it's agape. Because we did agape when we were in grade school, but that was actually with the Don Guadagnole School. It was called agape? But it was so great because...

The one teacher who would do morning announcements every morning. Never pronounce it right. It was hilarious how many ways he would pronounce Agape as not Agape. It would be like Agape. He would be Agape. Agape. I gotta go pay. I gotta go pay. We used to do the abate toy run every year. And I believe Pierre referred to it as the Abate. What is Agape? Agape.

For me, it was something that we would do as students at Cardinal Harrah High School with Don Gwinella. Don Gwinella. Don Gwinella is a school that was right next to Cardinal Harrah that housed people with mental disabilities. And so we would go and do activities. We'd play basketball, dodgeball, kickball, all sorts of stuff like that. Things with balls. Any kind of activity with balls. Yeah.

I like that. Nick is looking that up because now I'm curious. It signifies unconditional selfless love often described as the highest form of love. So, Case, I don't know. Is this sublime? I don't know if they're Catholic. I don't know. It's sublime, man. Yeah, but it's...

Nice little peek into my past. Agape is a word, right? It is. Okay. With your mouth agape. And then 36 rare photos taken by Paul McCartney back in the early 60s are going to be part of an exhibition opening in Los Angeles this week. The exhibit called... He's out of pain! Paul knows.

The exhibit Rearview Mirror photographs December 1963 through February 1964. These are pictures I took out of my rearview mirror. Opens on Friday at the Gagosian Art Gallery. It's Gagosian! That's what I was going to say. It's Gagosian. Yeah, yeah.

And runs until June 21st. The photos even include pictures of the Beatles while they were staying at the Hotel Deauville in Miami Beach in 1964. It's Miami. Out of their iconic appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. So he was...

He was a shutterbug for the entire run of the Beatles. If he goes back that far, he must have been annoying as hell. I don't want to take a goddamn picture. Once the exhibit ends, the photos all signed by Paul will go on sale with funds going toward helping those affected by the California wildfires. There you go. Last bit of music news there for you, friend. We will...

break and come back and we'll get ready to wrap up the program. We'll get that letter of the day for the word of the week prize. And Ryan Shuttleworth in for Pierre today. There's a few different people are going to be working for Pierre's off this week, but lots of good stuff for you gang. We'll be right back. Stay fun. We want to go for a ride in the car. Our tail is so wagging right now.

Take us along with the MMR app. It's Apple CarPlay and Android compatible, which means we get to sit in the dashboard screen. We'll even send you notifications if you want. Download it and try it now.

We actually mentioned Bon Jovi earlier this morning. We were talking to, of all people, Bill Weston. That's right. Because today is annual talk like Bill Weston day. And we haven't spoken like Bill Weston in quite some time. How long has he been gone? When did he retire? God, well, it was a couple of months before the...

you know, before the Christmas miracle. December 31st, 2023 was his last day. Like a year and change, a year and four months. But his legend looms large. Yep. So he's always with us. So today, April 21st, talk like Bill Weston day. Feel free to do your own speech pattern. Sometimes when you walk along the beach and you look back and you just see footsteps, that's because Bill Weston's caring. He was there. Yeah, that's right. Santa's got to go. So it was nice to have Santa on for a minute. And

And thank you to Valerie Bertinelli. Valerie Bertinelli chatted with us. She was on to talk about the new game show that she's hosting. It's called Bingo Blitz. You can catch it on Game Show Network. It's on 730 weeknights. And she like dove in immediately talking about her son Wolfgang, Wolfie. And so therefore we ended up talking about him and the MMRBQ and all that stuff for a little while. So it was kind of cool to get

Little inside track on Wolfgang from mom's perspective. And she's a proud mom. Completely. Big time. And speaking of...

Wolfgang, we want to welcome not him, but Ryan Shuttleworth. Preston Elliott, good day, sir. Lovely to see you, sir. And Ryan's got something cool going on concerning Wolfgang today. Yes. Which we'll tell you about in a moment. I think we should get the letter of the day first. Yes. If you are oh so inclined. So let's do that. Preston and Steve on 93.3 WMMR.

Now, the Daily Letter. All right, and the Preston and Steve Show is brought to you today by The Letter. S as in Samurai. All right, and on Friday, we will give away $500 to Nebraska Brazilian Steakhouse. And they're in Philly, Horsham, Philly and Horsham as well. They got you covered for your birthday. Get the most delicious birthday feast that Nebraska has to offer, which includes 15 cuts of meat, fish, grilled pineapple, and gourmet sides.

And you can reserve your table today at Nebraska.com. So I'll give that away on Friday. First of all, you are covering for Pierre just today? Just today. That's correct. And then Ray Koob's coming in? Yes. Okay. Something along those lines. Now, I mentioned Wolfgang. You got something really cool happening. Yeah, we announced this on Friday. It's the return of Pierre Presents, which is...

Just an amazing thing. It's an invite-only chat and concert. So a nice Q&A with Pierre. That'll take about 45 minutes or so. And then a concert after that exclusively for MMR listeners. It's taking place at the Foundry, which is the upstairs club at the Fillmore. It's Monday, May the 12th, right after the barbecue. And...

I got a four-pack of tickets to give away sometime throughout the program. I can't think of it. First of all, the Foundry's terrific. Oh, it's great. Pierre conducts a great interview. They apparently are way into it. The full compliment. It's going to be a fantastic experience. And it's fully electric. Sometimes we've done that. It's acoustic. This one...

Full amps and all. Full band, the whole thing. Should be a wall sound. Excellent. So that is pretty cool. So you all have a chance to win four-packet tickets today. Anything else you want to mention that's coming up? Yeah, so Workforce Blocks today, we will get to the Mighty Metallica, a little bit of Bad Company, and a request for Heart as well. I do want to say, going down memory lane with Gary Lauer coming in for Bill Weston's assistant, I found this in my wallet from the desk of Gary Lauer. Oh, no!

I forgot I had that. You had business cards made up for him as the mayor of Juniata Park. And I was like, I think I still have it. And I found that in my wallet. That's amazing. I forgot we went that far. It's a GL logo. GL Gary Lauer. And it says, from the desk of Gary Lauer, the mayor of Juniata Park.

That is a, that's a keeper right there. Thank you. Thank you for letting me really have that memory. Of course. That's our pleasure. All right. Well, I want to thank our sponsors.
