What are you doing on St. Patrick’s Day? We’re gonna be at Fado Irish Pub, and you should be, too. And while you’re there, maybe we can solve a little dispute that’s been going on behind-the-scenes for a while here. When Jason and Deb were hanging out with the proprietors of Fado a few weeks ago, Jason noted what he thought was a phony connection between Deb and the owners because they’re all not from the U.S. But Jason claims he’s more Irish than Deb is. They’ve been fighting about it ever since. Each day the two of them are going to put forth a reason why he or she is more Irish. Day two brings us two more reasons. Jason said as a kid he used to eat the crap out of Lucky Charms cereal. Of course Deb shot back with a “you would” because of its high fructose corn syrup contents and leading America’s children into obesity. Deb says she’s more Irish because her grandmother was named Breda O’Keefe, which is of Irish origin. Deb’s grandmother was 100% Irish, and had such a thick accent you could barely understand what she was saying. Vote at the poll just over to the right here to determine who’s the real Irishman –Jason O’Dick or Deb O’Keefe. (Even if you think it’s Jason, vote for Deb so that you can see Jason dressed like a leprechaun on St. Patrick’s Day at Fado.)
MAMA DICK PICKS SI’S BRAIN:
Mama Dick is starting a florist company. She has called to consult with SI (an advertising major from UT) on how to promote her business. She wants, in a tasteful way, to use the MorningX show in a two-page ad for her floral shop. SI says first thing is first and using her son, Jason in the ad would be detrimental to her business. Cassandra says she’s not hitting the right target market by using the show, but maybe using Deb could help tap into the “marrying” demographic of the show because she is a woman; however, she’s just as foolish and ugly as Jason. More business plans will be made over a power lunch, but Deb referred Mama Dick to GSD&M. Callers get witty to help out Mama Dick and even SI. A listener said “If Jason deflowers you, Mama Dick can reflower you” and another caller throws out a future job for SI, owning an ad agency called “Like Ads and Stuff.”
CATZ:
Catz Austin is know as the Competitive Athlete Training Zone that gives SI and Deb’s an ass-kicking every Tuesday and Thursday. Recently SI gave Deb a bloody nose on accident during their group exercise. Because everyone loves SI they give her room to toughen up even though she cries, “it hurts” a lot, especially around the CATZ crew. Bill, a trainer at Catz stopped by the studio today to talk about an event they’re hosting with Xocai. Misty, a rep from Xocai brought us natural dark chocolate that Deb fancied. Jason thinks an IV of the coco will improve SI’s concentration ten fold. The chocolate is actually good for you and lowers glycemic index, and its high volume of antioxidants help combat “free radicals” and reduce their damaging/aging effects on our bodies. They created a cacao energy drink that is the world’s first energy drink that is good for you, finally! This Friday Catz and Xocai are hosting a chocolate and health festival that includes games, relays, bingo, raffles, and training. You can also watch a live 3 vs. 3 lacrosse league game, and see NFL linebacker Brad Kassell (from Jets and Titans). The event is this Friday from 7pm to 9pm. Check out www.catzaustin.com or call (512) 345-5547 for more details. Cass and SI would love for anyone to join them during their grueling ass kicking at noon on Tuesday and Thursdays because it feels good.
JASON’S BELOVED COUCH:
Brad from Catz has a beloved couch that Jason has wanted ever since he lost his favorite couch in the divorce. Jason saw the couch he couldn’t find anywhere else, so this couch means everything to him. Catz has made him a deal that for each section (there are five on the whole couch set) he can have for free for each 20lbs he loses. We think he needs a little support, so try and convince him to get a banging bod and a free couch!
BUY A DATE WITH DEB AND JASON:
On Saturday, the Ranch is hosting a benefit called Dates With DJ’s. It starts goes from 8-11 pm at the Ranch and is emceed by Danny D-Train Trevino. John, a coordinator for the benefit stopped by today to give us some info. Deb and Jason will be auctioned of as a pair, as well as others like Toby from 101X and Kirsten (KLBJ Hottie) for dates. Proceeds go to Falling Whistles and Merlin foundations. Falling Whistles is a non-profit charity, which works to rehabilitate and advocate war-affected children in the Democratic Republic on the Congo, see more at www.fallingwhistles.com. Merlin is an emergency medical relief group currently providing help in Haiti; see more with them at www.merlin-usa.org. Date packages include donated items from Blazer Tag, Dave and Busters, The Highball, Moonshine, and Lamberts. Also haircuts and beard trims for the men from Floyd’s 99 Barbershop, and cuts, coloring, styling, and make-up from Avant Salon and Spa.
ANDY LANGER IN STUDIO:
Every Thursday we welcome musical genius Andy Langer to our studio. Andy let us know that interactive media is taking over SXSW festival; however, music will still bring the buzz, booze, and boobs. Emerging technology comes out of SXSW every year. Twitter debuted at SXSW two years ago, and look at it now. Deb confessed to tweeting at HEB last night, but new social networking tools like four square acts as a globally positioned stalker tracker letting people know exactly where you are, and when you leave or arrive at destinations. Deb says it’s not for Jo-Shmos and will only work for assassins and celebrities. Andy wont watch American Idol, but everyone else is! Instead he’s watching every TV series imaginable: Lost, The Good Wife (which is apparently better than AI), Big Love, and more. Who is the buzz band at SXSW 2010? Andy says The XX, and Deb admits she really likes them. White Stripes member, Jack White is setting up a pop-up store at Frank’s (a hot dog stand), which his label (3rd man records) is going to sell vintage vinals and other band memorabilia during SXSW. Andy Langer, the diva of all Austin gossip pulls through for us once again.
I LOVE YOU CALL:
Everyday Deb tries to spread love by calling random businesses. Deb called a place called Dressage in Florida. Apparently Jason and Cass didn’t know what this is or means, but the important thing is that Tessa from Dressage butt–slammed Deb. Dressage is a competitive horse training facility that potentially takes competitive riding to the Olympics. Deb loved Tessa and her horses, but they didn’t love her.
KNOW YOUR COHOST:
Deb and Jason spend many, many, many hours together and some might say too many. That is why we like to quiz them on each other’s lives. Listeners Max called to join team O’Keefe and Aaron joined Jason’s team. Deb knew Jason’s intern name at 101X was Silent J. Jason had to guess Deb’s middle name and write it on a piece of paper because it’s top secret, but Jane is super wrong because she’s named after her Dad. How much did Jason weight the day before his wedding? He weighed 247lbs on November 2, 2007, duh. No point for team O’Keefe. Deb asks Jason what her Facebook picture is of and exclaims that Jason has to show her the embrace, which is in her picture, but Jason grabbed SI’s boob and HR is going to be out for him. Jason missed only 2 football games while attending UT, which Deb got right. Jason thinks Deb is a hypochondriac but guessed her most recent visit to the doctor wrong. With legs lifting in the air as a clue, we all find out Deb’s got her yearly check-up. Deb wins, so Max is qualified to win SXSW badges if he battles in the Guitar Hero competition.
THE QUIZ:
Every day we “trivialize” Deb by asking her questions on a variety of topics. Today we did Tiger Wood’s trivia. What is Tiger’s real name? Surely she knew that. She guessed Eldrick, which is correct! Which news outlet was the first to allege that Tiger had an affair? It was the National Inquirer, which Deb guessed wrong. Where is Tiger’s mother from? Deb guessed Malaysia but she’s from Thailand. Therefore, our listener wins Phoenix tickets!
REWIND:
What are you doing on St. Patrick’s Day? We’re gonna be at Fado Irish Pub, and you should be, too. And while you’re there, maybe we can solve a little dispute that’s been going on behind-the-scenes for a while here. When Jason and Deb were hanging out with the proprietors of Fado a few weeks ago, Jason noted what he thought was a phony connection between Deb and the owners because they’re all not from the U.S. But Jason claims he’s more Irish than Deb is. They’ve been fighting about it ever since. Each day the two of them are going to put forth a reason why he or she is more Irish. Jason’s reason is the most obvious: he has red hair – that’s the most Irish thing you can possibly have. Jason wikipedia’ed it today, and there are more people carrying the ginger gene in Ireland than in any other country in the world. Deb’s got something pretty good, as well – an O’ in her surname. O’Keefe sounds pretty Irish to me. Caller Nick said that he’s gotta go with Jason, but there’s an easier way to solve this whole argument. If you’re going to go based on Irish stereotypes, you should just have a drink-off. Deb claims that at the Memorial Day Pool Party two years ago, she drank Jason under the table. A texter said that no Irish person has ever gone to bed before 10 PM. Drew thinks it’s Jason because Deb’s British, so her people have oppressed the Irish for centuries. Vote at the poll just over to the right here to determine who’s the real Irishman – Jason O’Dick or Deb. (Even if you think it’s Jason, vote for Deb so that you can see Jason dressed like a leprechaun on St. Patrick’s Day at Fado.)
NEWS:
RICK PERRY HAS GOT IT:
Rick Perry has got “the look” to be president because he is from Texas, has great hair, and is boss is Jesus. Cassandra googled Joe the plumber because he likes Palin, to be continued…
SAME SEX MARRIAGE:
Nation’s capital gives into same sex marriage, so it’s legal by next Tuesday! Yet Deb is still upset she hasn’t been invited to a same sex union celebration by any of the members in her go-to gay coalition in Austin, how sad.
TINK TINKER TOYS:
Jason finds out that there are new Swiss condoms called “Hot Shots” being made to fit penis sizes of the standard 12-year old boy. Deb thinks it would be easier to cut the finger off of a rubber glove. Jason admits to stealing condoms as a young boy, since he lost his flower at age 13. The condom can only be purchased in Switzerland, but Cassandra has a brilliant marketing idea of placing the “hot shots” next to the candy aisle.
PRINCESS AND THE SALMONELLA:
The newest film from Disney, “Princess and the Frog” has little girls across the country catching frogs. Better yet, reports explain a recent outbreak of salmonella coming from these little girls kissing the frogs. What will Disney movies make little girls do next?
HAIRY LEGS O’KEEFE:
Thank god for laser hair removal because hairy legs O’Keefe confesses into shaving at an early age. On a recent interview with Monique, (Oscar nominee for “Precious”) she admits to having an open relationship with her husband, and to never shaving because it hurts. Apparently her husband likes it. Yum. Long leg hair fetishes, are they the new thing?
PRESIDENT’S ASSEMBLY:
SNL pulled off a skit including Fred Armisen, as Barack Obama, worrying over the stresses of leading the United States one evening before bed in the White House. So some of his pals show up with friendly advice: George W. Bush (Will Ferrell), Bill Clinton (Darrell Hammond), George Bush Sr. (Dana Carvey), Ronald Reagan (Jim Carrey), Jimmy Carter (Dan Aykroyd) and Gerald Ford (Chevy Chase). The skit actually made Deb laugh and Jason giggle.
TV SHOW INTO MOVIE:
Word on the street is Gilligan’s Island is going to be made into a movie with leading man, Michael Cera. Deb hopes it won’t be a crash and burn like “Land of the Lost.”
SPORTS:
Tiger Woods is back home in Florida after spending a week in Arizona taking marriage counseling. He is back to practice. He has 4 weeks to get ready for the Masters, but his caddy is mad at him- apparently he was cheated on too. Jason says Tiger forgot “Bros before hoes.”
John Daly turned to twitter yesterday and took a verbal attack to the reporter who had "outed" him from a Florida newspaper revealing his PGA tour disciplinary record in all its nastiness.
Peyton Manning had neck surgery for a pinched nerve and had to go under the knife. It wasn’t too serious and isn’t expecting to interfere with his off-season.
