THAT’S NOT A FIRST DATE:

Deb’s has this guy that she’s known for years, so he’s been locked in the Friend Zone, but his persistence over time has gotten him a first date.  But they’ve many times hung out together, exclusively, when he may have paid for the meals.  That sure sounds like they’ve been on dates.  Apparently he just hasn’t said till now, “You wanna go out on a date?” and that makes all the difference.

C OF THE WEEK:

Each week Deb calls one person or thing the C Word – the worst word in the world, although she typically uses it in a jovial fashion.  But not today.  This week it’s the Kentucky Derby.  She’s upset with how cruel the horse race industry is to the animals, especially after they can’t race anymore.  When Jason thinks about the life of a racehorse, where they get fed a lot and, when they retire, get put out to stud – that sounds pretty good.  He’s gonna be a racehorse.  Then you can eat his horsemeat when he’s dead.

TWITTER GAME:

Twitter is all the rage with the kids nowadays - if you're not following @DebOKeefe, @jasondick101x, @Nickmouth, and @ThatAlexD, what the hell is wrong with you? In this game, we guess who tweeted what.  Today Deb, Jason, and the listener chose from Carlos Mencia, Gabriel Iglesias, and George Lopez.  Jason and the listener both knew that Cracker Barrel did not meet the approval of Mr. Iglesias, and Deb tied it up by knowing that Carlos Mencia’s mom beat him.  Fun times.  Everybody knew that George Lopez felt old because he partied too hard on the weekends.  The listener actually pulled ahead by getting that Carlos got “excited” at Fry’s.  In the end, Deb and the listener got that Gabriel Iglesias was looking forward to using his own toilet.  That meant the listener beat everybody.  Only the 11th time that’s happened – what an honor!

BAD JOHN PAUL:

Our buddy Bad John Paul is having an art show tonight.  Check out "Filthy Gorgeous" at the Madison on 307 W. 5th Street at 9 PM.  Unfortunately Jason & Deb haven't taken any photos with him yet, so you'll have to wait to see those in a few weeks., but there will be lots of pictures of naked people, so you know you'll have a good time.  

PET OF THE WEEK:

Every week we feature a lovely adoptable dog. This week we're looking for a home for Billie. She's a very sweet puppy whose jaw and pelvis were broken. She’s having surgery on her pelvis and has already had surgery on her jaw, which will be wired shut for 6 weeks while it heals. If you’re interested in adopting Billie, email deb@krox.com for more information. While you’re at it go to Love-A-Bull and take a look, so we can give some other pups great new homes too. 

DENNIS DE LA PENA:

Fridays we welcome to the show a real sportscaster, Dennis De La Pena, from Fox 7 Sports.  First off:  Jr. Seau’s death was officially ruled a suicide this week.  Everybody’s worried that this is a sign of the end of football, with these guys getting brain damaged and getting screwed up forever, even killing themselves.  It’s pretty worrying.  We’ll just have to wait and see.  Check out violence-free baseball on Fox this weekend. 

I LOVE YOU CALL:

At 8:50 Deb calls a random business and tries to get the person answering the phone to say, “I love you.”  Today Deb talked to Emma at Rave Motion Pictures in Pensacola, FL to see if they’re all sold out of Avengers tickets.  They’re not, apparently.  Hooray!  Deb was so enthusiastic that she managed to trick Emma into giving her a “loves you, too?”  That counts.

NEWS:

Mark Zuckerberg is going to make a reported $1 billion payday when Facebook's IPO hits Wall Street, and he'll still have plenty more stock to sell when he decides to retire to that private country someday.

SPORTS:

Mariano Rivera, the Yankees’ closing pitcher, tore his ACL yesterday when catching balls in the outfield during practice yesterday. That may effectively end his career, sadly enough.
