No Money Monday

None of us won the Powerball this weekend... no one on the Wease Show even won a little extra spending cash on The Preakness.  The experts all said to bet on Kentucky Derby winner Orb... the experts were wrong.  Oxbow was the winner.  Watching the race made Wease miss the HBO horseracing drama "Luck" that got cancelled become some horses died.

Pauly wonders if the horses know they're in a race, or just out running with their buddies.  Marianne asks if jockies have groupies.  Everyone has groupies, proven by the fact that the Boston Marathon Bomber has chicks that want to bang him.

Tools With Sports

The big discussion today is the time John spent at the PepsiMax Field Of Dreams Challenge.  John was the "manager" of the American League team featuring Reggie Jackson, Wade Boggs, Pedro Martinez, Rickey Henderson, and Frank Thomas.  Tools wanted to do a bit where he was gonna visit Pedro on the mound to give him some advice, but he didn't have the guts.  Here's Boggs making some fans happy...

Go HERE for a ton of great pictures from the game.

We discuss people wanting autographs, and how many people go not because they're baseball fans, but because of "celebrity".

In other news, The Knicks lost to the Pacers.  Indiana will now face the Miami Heat.  Marianne says for the underdog to win they'll have to focus and take one game at a time.

Lilac Fest Trouble

Pauly and Ryann were at The Lilac Festival this Saturday night.  It was the 4th time they'd gone this year, but unfortunately this time there were some problems just before they got there, creating a bad vibe.  Kids went that night deciding to cause trouble, and while the most major of the issues were outside of the park, there were still problems inside.  Pauly did manage to say something to a 13 year old wiseass because he was bigger than the kid.  Googs felt badly that so much police was on hand too.  It'd been such a great event, it's too bad that a bad taste is left in people's mouth towards the end.

Pauly also took a trip to the new East Ave Wegmans on it's opening day, where his large amounts the food broke the scale/cash register.  Ok, maybe it wasn't really his stuff, and just a coincidence, but I'd like to think it was the mountain of mashed potatoes.

Wease also tells us about a huge dog he saw over the weekend... a listener tells him that it was an Irish Wolf Hound.

This leads to a discussion of what you'd feed a dog this big, and a guy calls to tell us how he doesn't give his canine dog food, giving him veggies, raw chicken, and other people food.

Madge Madigan

Author Madge Madigan joins us in studio to talk about her book "When Life Gives You Lemons At Least You Won't Get Scurvy".  Madge is a humorist who describes herself as a cross between Erma Bombeck and Kathy Griffin, and has graduated from the School Of Hard Knocks.  She's overcome an abusive marriage, homelessness, and more.

Madge gives us her thoughts on everything from fake breasts to raising kids, tells us about the time NBA star Steve Nash felt her up, and tries to give Wease advice about problems at home involving child discipline.  Surprisingly, Wease wants to be stricter with the kids, and thinks Doreen spoils them too much.

Billboard Music Award

The Billboard Music Awards were last night, and Wease just happened to tune in as the guy from 80's group A-Ha was singing with Pitbull and Christina Aguleria.

"The 2013 Billboard Music Awards" took place last night.  It's like The Grammys.  But even fewer people care.

A-ha singer Morten Harket joined Christina Aguilera and Pitbull to sing "Feel this Moment".  Partly because the song samples "Take on Me".  Partly because Pitbull likes helping the homeless.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis won Best Rap for "Thrift Shop".  Now the fun really begins:  how long can they milk one hit before they have to shop in a real one?

J-Lo performed "Live it Up" with Pitbull.  It's as close as a Puerto Rican and a Cuban are ever gonna get without breaking into a knife fight.

Psy and Tracy Morgan performed a dance off.  I'm not sure who won.  But I definitely know who lost:  me . . . for watching.

Fun. won for Top Rock Artist.  Their acceptance speech was ridiculously shorter than it needed to be.  Just like their pants.

One Direction won for Best Group . . . you want to punch in the face.

Prince and Madonna both made appearances.  Which made some confused viewers think they had accidentally tuned into a rerun of "I Love the '80s".

Chris Brown performed martial arts moves while singing "Fine China".  The moves were so realistic that Rihanna spent the entire song ducking.

Let me be the first to say it was nice to see Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift finally get a little media attention.

Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars competed for the Milestone Award . . . because apparently, we've given up on musicians surviving beyond the age of 28.

Taylor Swift called her fans the best relationship she's ever had.  Then she dumped them and griped about how self-centered they were in a new song.

Nicki Minaj and Lil' Wayne teamed up for the song, "High School".  Because "High School Drop Outs" would have been too on the nose.

Nicki Minaj gave Lil' Wayne a lap dance during their performance of "High School".  Wayne obviously liked it because his eyes rolled up in his head.  Or was that another seizure?

We get a call from a fan in a group home who is looking for a jewish chick to take on a date.  Matt was a lot of fun to talk to.... he agrees with Marianne when Wease asks him if he's ever bought some peach.  He's not doing that.

Our favorite moment of the night was when pop star Miguel accidentally kicked a fan in the head while trying to jump from the stage to a walkway...

East Ave. Wegmans

Earlier this morning Wease mentioned how he wish he knew the nut who was the first person in line at the East Ave Wegmans yesterday morning when it opened.  Turns out he does know the guy... Alan Davidson of Brighton is a huge Bills fan that used to go on trips with Wease to Miami for football games.  Alan calls us, but seems to be "phone-challenged" and can can't seem to keep from pushing buttons while talking to us.

Vin Diesel Make Us Furious Faster

There's a reason why all we ask of VIN DIESELis that he drive fast cars and look good in a wife-beater:  There's probably not a lot more we can expect from him.

Case in point:  Vin thinks GUYS in Hollywood are under way more pressure to stay in shape than women are.  He tells "Men's Fitness", quote, "Hollywood is more concerned about its male actors being in shape than its female actors."

(Really?  Two words, Vin:  KEVIN JAMES.  Big fat guy whose love interests have included Leah Remini, Jayma Mays and Salma Hayek, to name a few.  Case closed.)

Ironically, though, staying in such good shape has also LIMITED Vin's career.  He says, quote, "Being a physical presence will rule you out of a lot of roles.  I couldn't have done [a movie like] 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' with that physical presence.

"But I like it as part of me;  it's part of what I represent, and I think if Humphrey Bogart were around today he'd be a lot bigger."

Tomorrow's Show

Back tomorrow with more infotainment... Redneck News, Tools, Doug, and whatever happens in our lives (and yours) over the next 24 hours.  It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice. 

TGIF

Wease starts the morning with a "This Day In History" that caught his eye...

13 years ago . . . in 2000 - THE EAGLES sued the "HOTEL CALIFORNIA" restaurant in Addison, Texas, for trademark violation.  The two sides settled, and the restaurant changed its name to the Baja California Grill. 

This reminded Wease of a situation that happened in Rochester about 20 years ago, when the Academy Awards sued a restaurant owned by a friend of his called "Oscars", which featured movie memorabilia.

Wease also talks about the story of a local man busted for DWI on his lawnmower, and how the doofus admitted to smoking pot.  Hilarious audio from the guy and his mom.

Tools With Sports (And Funny Names)

The man with the greatest name in sports history is no longer with us.  Former NASCAR driver DICK TRICKLE committed suicide yesterday.  He was 71.

Trickle reportedly shot himself at Forest Lawn Cemetery in North Carolina shortly after noon yesterday. 

Police say Trickle called the local dispatcher and said they'd find his body there.

Emergency vehicles were sent to the cemetery, where they found Trickle's body next to his truck.  He left a suicide note, but the contents have yet to be revealed.

Talking about Dick Trickle leads to a discussion of athletes, friends, and caller aquaintances with funny names...

#5 – Chubby Cox

Fun Fact: Cox was born John Arthur Cox III, but if your last name is Cox, you may as well just go for full humiliation.

#4 – Ivana Mandic

Fun Fact: Ivana's twin brother is named Ihava.

#3 – Dick Trickle

Fun Fact: If Dick Trickle is greenish or painful, he should see a doctor.

#2 – Rusty Kuntz

Fun Fact: A remedy for Rusty Kuntz is a bit of Dick Trickle.

#1 – Lucious Pusey

Fun Fact: Everyone agrees that Lucious Pusey is better than Rusty Kuntz.

Tools also says don't bet on tonight's Knicks game... too close to call.

John also agrees with Phil Jackson that Michael Jordan is better than Kobe Bryant.  In a new book that comes out next week, former NBA coach PHIL JACKSON finally answers the question people have been asking him for years:  He now admits MICHAEL JORDAN was better than KOBE BRYANT.  Jackson gives Michael the edge on offense, defense and as a team leader.

Join John tomorrow as he broadcasts live from Frontier Field for the Pepsi Max Field Of Dreams game.

Marshall Fine Film Reviews

Star Trek: Into Darkness...

The second J.J. Abrams movie starts off with Kirk violating the Prime Directive in order to save Spock from dying in an active volcano, but it quickly moves on to a hunt for a rogue Star Fleet agent who attacks Star Fleet from within.

The villain in this one is Benedict Cumberbatch, from the BBC series "Sherlock".  For months there'd been speculation that he's playing Khan, but all Paramount would admit is that he's an "intergalactic terrorist" named John Harrison.

However, if you go to IMDB, they DO list him as Khan so read into that what you will . . . or just ask the office Trekkie who stood in line for yesterday's midnight opening.

After attacking Earth, the terrorist retreats to a Klingon planet and the Enterprise has to risk violating Klingon space to hunt him down.  "Robocop's" Peter Weller plays the Star Fleet Admiral who sends Kirk after him.

The returning cast is Chris Pine as Kirk, Zachary Quinto as Spock, Karl Urban as Dr. McCoy, Zoe Saldana as Uhura, Simon Pegg as Scotty, John Cho as Sulu, Anton Yelchin as Chekov, and Bruce Greenwood as Admiral Christopher Pike.

Alice Eve shows off a nice bit of skin as Kirk's love interest, Dr. Carol Marcus.  Carol was the woman who secretly gave birth to Kirk's son in the original timeline.

As we discussed yesterday  Wease HATED it, with a capital HATED!!!  What did Marsh think?  Does he agree with Wease?  Nope.  Marsh thought the new Star Trek was a ton of fun, well acted, and well written.  Wease thinks maybe he went into the movie with a bad attitude, kind of grumpy, with low expectations, and it colored his opinion.  That's hard to believe.

Also a long discussion of The Hangover 3, coming out soon.  Pauly was hoping it'd have the same plot as the first two, and disappointed to find out this won't be the case.  Wease and Marsh compare it to other movie and TV comedies, and what makes people laugh.  After Marshall hangs up the conversation continues with Wease and Marianne disagreeing over whether it's harder to make people laugh with scripted comedy, or adlibbed.

Craig Shoemaker

Our new favorite comedian Craig Shoemaker is back, and has a lot to say about a story Wease read out of the NY Post.  The newspaper writer flipped out when an audience member at a play refused to stop texting, and talking to her friends.  The guy took her phone and threw it, causing a ruckus.  Craig can't applaud this behavior enough, and talks about the rudeness of people nowadays, and their inability to realize their bad behavior.

Be Craig's Father

Craig talks about growing up without a father, and how as a kid he wrote letters to celebrities he wanted to be his dad, including baseball player Tim McCarver and the notoriously gay comedian Paul Lynde (another excellent impression from Craig).

The Paul Lynde story leads to Craig telling us stories about being a regular on Whoopi Goldberg's version of The Hollywood Squares.  Did you know Whoopi got her name because she farts so much?

Craig Shoemaker: Prince Of The Poconos

As we mentioned ealier, Craig Shoemaker's father left when he was a baby, but found out later in life that the dad is a cult leader in the Poconos.  Craig talks about reuniting with the guy who has a harem, gives tours via mule ride, and stole Craig's cheese tray to feed to his women.  Craig talks about how the guy wanted his offspring to quit comedy/acting to help run his mule business, and become "Prince Of The Poconos".

Chris Hansen

You probably remember Chris Hansen from "To Catch A Predator", where he would do creepy interviews with child predators who would show up at police stings set up by NBC.  Chris is back with Dateline, and doing a story about websites like Craigs List and Backpage where you can ads include some for prostitution, hitmen, drugs, vampires, and other below board things.  I can't imagine anyone not wanting to watch this show.

The Shmeek In The Shmook

The more Craig Shoemaker talks to Wease the more he's a combo of enthralled and appalled.  A comedian that has been on hundreds of radio shows across the country is shocked by hearing about Wease's bathroom habits, his plan to have a shot in his penis as a bit/medical guinea pig, Wease's history of drugs, broads, cumades (sp?)   No way to do justice to how funny this set was.

Preakness Talk

The guys from Batavia Downs OTB are back to give you tips on this weekends Triple Crown Race.  You can place your bet HERE.  The experts in studio are thinking Derby winner Orb will repeat.  They start betting exactas, and hopefully we're gonna win a bunch of dough.

See Ya Next Week

Have a great weekend... go see Craig Shoemaker at The Comedy Club, Billy will be MCing The Smithereens at The Lilac Festival tonight, John Ditullio will be broadcasting from Frontier Field tomorrow afternoon before the Pepsi Max legends game.  We'll be back next week with all the stuff you love about the show.  It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.

Thursday Thoughts

Wease is really, really tired this morning... he and Sammy went to the late night/early morning showing of the new Star Trek movie.  Wease HATED it.... not dislike... HATED!!!!  He admits that all the actors were great as the younger versions of the characters, but the nonstop action and special effects eventually dull your senses.  Wease was sort of a fan of the 60's TV show, but that was more slow, thoughtful, and dialogue driven.  Wease is on 2 hours of sleep, so he may get a little goofy today.

Tools With Sports

- Blackhawks Breakthrough Against Detroit Red Wings

Tools has maybe his greatest "This Day In History" victory ever...

33 years ago . . . in 1980 - In Game 6 of the NBA Finals, the Los Angeles Lakers' rookie point guard MAGIC JOHNSON replaced the injured KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR at CENTER, and scored 42 points to carry the Lakers to the title.  John got all of these details exactly right, plus the day of the week (Friday), gametime, where he was, and more.

"Sports Illustrated" has released its annual list of the Highest-Earning American Athletes . . . and boxer FLOYD MAYWEATHER tops it, with $90 million in projected earnings in 2013.  He's followed by LEBRON JAMES and DREW BREES.

Here's the Top 10 . . .

1.  Floyd Mayweather,  $90 million

2.  LeBron James,  $56.5 million

3.  Drew Brees,  $47.8 million

10.  Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke,  $29 million

Lilac Fest Gone To The Dogs

Pauly and Ryann went to The Lilac Festival last night, and tried to bring their little pug Walter.  Dogs aren't allowed in the area where the beer, food, and music are, but in the past Pauly had brought his dog with no problems.  Not this year... they tried getting in from a few different ways, and were busted everytime, managing to draw big attention to themselves, before giving up and going home.

Pauly and Brooksie also went on a media tour of the new East Ave. Wegmans yesterday, and tell us about the cool stuff in the store.  They are very excited that this is their new neighborhood store, and will be there frequently.  Here are a few pics.

Craig Shoemaker

Comedian Craig Shoemaker is at the Comedy Club this weekend, and joins us in studio.  Craig tells Wease how AC/DC played at his wedding because he's friends with lead singer Brian Johnson.  Wease refers to AC/DC as a heavy metal band, which Craig disagrees with... says they're not a heavy metal band.  Here is the list of "MTV's Greatest Heavy Metal Bands Of All Time"...

01. BLACK SABBATH
02. JUDAS PRIEST
03. METALLICA
04. IRON MAIDEN
05. PANTERA
06. SLAYER
07. AC/DC
08. MOTÖRHEAD
09. KISS
10. MÖTLEY CRÜE 

Number 7!!!  Plus Marianne's pick of Kiss at #9.  This leads to a long discussion with lots of calls about what heavy metal is.

More With Craig

Craig talks about doing impressions, so he and Wease do some of their favorite impressions... Craig doing Don Knotts, Patrick Stewart, Bill Cosby, and Morgan Freeman.  Wease does Jimmy Durante, Leon Redbone, and Howard Cosell. Who is Leon Redbone?

Craig and Wease also talks about how physically difficulty  of bowling, and how it gets a bad name.  Wease admits he'd be tired after 3 games, and Marianne disagrees.  She says she bowls... is there a challenge on the way.  Marianne says she loves bowling but feels uncomfotable doing it because she thinks people are staring at her ass.

Oh Craig

Craig tells a great story of being Magic Johnson's sidekick on Magic's shortlived variety show, and how he was set up to fail with bad jokes from writers, no chemistry with the star, and was eventually demoted and then fired.

We also find out about Craig's first wife, actress Nancy Allen, who became famous in movies like "Blow Out", "Dressed To Kill", "Carrie", and many more.

We also hear from The Love Master hitting on Marianne.

Wease And Craig Bond Some More

Hilarious set about hypochondria, and how people are becoming pussies nowadays.  Asthma, diets, the sun, and helmets are all targets of the funnyman's ire.  Remember when we used to have commercials for sun tan lotion... not to protect you, but to magnify the cancer causing solar rays.

Quick piece of trivia... the little girl who's bathing suit is tugged on by the dog is Jodie Foster.

Wease and Craig both have kids that suffer from "sports enduces asthma".  When they were kids it was called being out of breath, or being out of shape.

Merilee's Morning March

Wease speaks with Rodger Chenelly, the organizer of Merilee's Morning March.  Rodger is the widower of Merilee, who committed suicide a few years ago.  Pauly talks about his depression and medication.  Here is some info on what's happening this Saturday.

Hump Day

Start the day talking about The Lilac Festival, and tonight's headlining band The Marshall Tucker Band.  How is it that Wease and Billy are the only ones that have heard of this grough that has had a dozen hits?  Are the Marshall Tucker Band cooler than other southern rock bands because they have a flute and are kind of jazzy?

Wease tells the story of coming in this morning and being surprised by a big ATF cop coming out of the elevator when he was coming into work this morning at 5:15am.  Wease only had time to say "You scared the shiznit out of me" before the officer went on his mission.  We want to know where he was going... we never see action this early in the building.

A violent night in Rochester... a couple of shootings in the city.  A Wayne County resident calls to defend her redneck area.  Wease and Hillbilly Heather argue about area crime, and where people would rather live, and whether The Times Of Wayne County should report all the info that they do.

We learn from a another listener that Rochester has their own version of the Wayne County Times with wacky crimes called The Crook Book.

Tools With Sports

- Did Tiger lie during his tourney win this weekend?

Wease asks about the Bills QB situation... there is already a workout with Kevin Kolb, Tavaris Jackson, and EJ Manuel.  Wease thinks that Manuel should start since Buffalo used it's 1st round pick on him.

In NHL playoffs the Penguins top Senators 4-1 in series opener, and LA Kings over San Jose Sharks.  Tools doesn't think hockey should be played in warm weather states.

- Sixer player charged with sexual assault.  Report says (in Wease's words) that she was bleeding from both holes.

More bad news for Philly athletes... Eagles RB Lesean McCoy winds up in a party bus brawl.  Wease thinks this is a case of "Wimmens Is Crazy", and looking for cash.

John is happy today... his hero Brett Favre might be going back to the Packers organization.

Wease and John get into a discussion of classic movies, and the next flick for Wease and Sammy's "Father/Son Movie Night" is the sports related flick that many consider the greatest movie of all time... Raging Bull.. where Robert Deniro plays championship boxer Jake Lamotta.

Bible Thumper

On Saturday, 57-year-old Evelyn Mills Moore of Kings Mountain, North Carolina was arrested for BEATING another woman with a BIBLE.  There's no word on why she attacked the woman.

She was arrested for assault.  The other woman was treated for multiple bruises on her head, face, and arms.

Speaking of The Bible and Jesus, how about the Miami mayoral candidate who says she's endorse by Jesus.  Will she blame Jesus if she loses?

Banned From SNL

Someone at Buzzfeed.com has put together a list of 9 People Who Were Banned from "Saturday Night Live".  Here are the ones they listed, along with the reason why they were allegedly booted:

1.  The punk band Fear . . . for trashing the "SNL" set back in 1981.

2.  Steven Seagal . . . for being a bad host, and being a jerk to the cast and crew.  He hosted back in 1991.  The next year, Lorne Michaels supposedly told Nicolas Cage that Steven was "the biggest jerk who's ever been on the show."

3.  Adrien Brody . . . for a horrible, 45-second, ad-libbed introduction to musical guest Sean Paul in 2003.

4.  Elvis Costello . . . for playing his politically-charged song "Radio, Radio" in 1977, even though he was explicitly told to play his single "Less Than Zero".  His ban was lifted in 1989, and he's performed several times since.

5.  Frank Zappa . . . for doing a terrible job of hosting the show in 1978.

6.  Martin Lawrence . . . for being extremely filthy in his monologue in 1994.  He dissed the censors, and launched into a commentary about feminine hygiene.

7.  Cypress Hill . . . for lighting a joint onstage, and trashing the stage and their instruments during a performance in 1993.

8.  The Replacements . . . for a bad, drunken performance in 1986.  They missed whole verses, repeated lyrics, stumbled into each other, messed up guitar lines, and screamed obscenities at the audience.

9.  Sinead O'Connor . . . for ripping up a picture of the Pope, looking into the camera, and saying, quote, "Fight the real enemy."

(For more information, including videos, hit up Buzzfeed.com.)

(There are more comprehensive lists and write-ups on banned "SNL" performers online.  You can find one of them, here.  It also includes:  Charles Grodin, Milton Berle and Robert Blake.)

Wease tells the story of the time he saw SNL live with his friend Father Guido Sarducci hosting, and musical guest ZZ Top.  This leads to everyone but Billy asking "Who is Father Guido Sarducci?"  He is a character created by writer/comedian Don Novello, and was big during the 70s and 80's.

- Powerball Jackpot Grows To 360 Million

This leads to a discussion of if we would quit our jobs if we won... Wease actually had an argument with HIMSELF about it (the man loves to argue).  The easy answer is yes, and Wease even said he'd give us each a million.  I think we all love radio enough to keep it in our lives somehow, but we'd get to sleep late.

Doug also lets us know that there is a media tour of the new East Ave Wegmans today.  Wait a second.... we're in the media!!!  Where is our invite?

Author TJ English

Wease speaks with writer TJ English about the book pictured above.  Mr. English has been following stories of gangsters and the mob for many years, and this is a collection of some of the articles he's written on the subject over the years.

TJ has had a long and interesting career as an investigative journalist, and has written books that have been widely praised by everyone from Jon Stewart to The NY Times.  Go HERE for lots of interesting info about Mr. English, and all the stuff he's done, and people he's known over the past 22 years.

Movies

Is Wease a good or bad parent?  Tonight he is taking Sammy to the midnight showing of the new Star Trek flick.  Is he just spoiling his kid, or is he supplying good father/son bonding time?  The rest of us aren't looking forward to working with Wease after 2 hours of sleep tomorrow... I hope he takes a nap during the movie.

Bonus Content... Gallery Of Sexy Star Trek Starlet Alice Eve HERE

The best time to go to a movie, if you can do it, is Monday afternoon.  Billy had a private showing of Iron Man a couple days ago.

Marianne and Pauly both recently saw films so bad that they had to stop.  Marianne says avoid "Jack Reacher" with Tom Cruise, and Pauly just couldn't keep watching "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter".

Say Yay To Prostitution

Wease returns to the story he started earlier about the time he went to see Saturday Night Live with Father Guido Sarducci.  During that weekend he met a hot chick he thought dug him, but it turns out she was an escort.  Marianne and Wease debate the percentage of good looking prostitutes, and Wease defending prostitution as a career choice.  Marianne thinks this is insane, saying most hookers are hurt women, but Wease uses Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman as the perfect example of what he's talking about.

Ask Wease

A caller has a 14 year old daughter that wants her lip pierced.  What age does Wease think this is ok?  Wease doesn't  get the whole piercing thing, so it's hard for him to have an opinion, but he wouldn't want his daughter pierced that young.  We learn the the age restriction on piercing is now 18.  The dude also tells Marianne how pretty she is... calls her a Budweiser 4... it'd take 4 Clydesdales to get her off his face.  She doesn't get it.

Wease is asked why he pro prostitution, but anti porn.  He always says porn actresses are someone's daughter, but aren't hookers someone's daughter too?  Wease thinks what top end escorts do can be helpful and loving to guys that need to get laid, but porn is disgusting and those chicks do awful things that hookers don't.  A long discussion of the "ins and outs" of porno vs. prostitution is debated.  Wease talks about a "porn star" from Rochester he used to have on the show, and the time Joe T. watched one of her movies backwards on a VCR. 

Dr. Chris Barry

We're joined in studio by transplant surgeon Dr. Chris Barry, who does transplants of organs below the diaphram (liver, pancreas, kidneys).  Dr. Barry is a crusader to try and get people signed up for organ donation.... NY is 48th out of the 50 states in terms of organ donation.  Chris also answers listener questions, and tells us about advances in medicine the past few years.  Tons of great questions about what to do, how to do it, and lots of success stories.  If you want to be sure you're a registered organ donor go fill out a form HERE with the New York State Donate Life Registry.

Tomorrow's Show

Provided we don't win tonight's Powerball and all quit we'll be back tomorrow with more information and entertainment... comedian Craig Shoemaker will be in studio, we'll do more "Ask Wease" since we only got to a couple today, maybe "Geezers Vs. Douchebags" if we can get Wease to Double Bit, legit news from Doug Emblidge, the latest in sports with John Ditullio and much more.  It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.  See ya!!!!

Tuesday's Here

Wease brings up a couple big stories in the news this morning... this week's 80 million dollar Powerball jackpot, and some big celebrity news from Angelina Jolie.

Jolie, in an opinion piece for the The New York Times, said she finished the preventative mastectomies on April 27 and had no regrets about removing her breast tissue.

She said her mother died from cancer at 56 and she wanted to be able to reassure her own children they didn't have to worry.

"They have asked if the same could happen to me," Jolie wrote.

"I have always told them not to worry, but the truth is I carry a 'faulty' gene, BRCA1, which sharply increases my risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer."

She said the surgery had decreased her chances of developing breast cancer from 87 percent to five percent.

"I can tell my children that they don't need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer," she said.

"It is reassuring that they see nothing that makes them uncomfortable.

"They can see my small scars and that's it.

"Everything else is just Mommy, the same as she always was."

She said her partner, Brad Pitt, had supported her throughout the three months of treatment and was at the breast centre for every surgery she underwent.

"We managed to find moments to laugh together," she said.

"We knew this was the right thing to do for our family and that it would bring us closer.

"And it has."

Wease talks about the people that have the theory that Jolie adopted her kids for publicity, and how ridiculous that is, comparing it to the people that think gay NBA player Jason Collins came out for the pub.  This leads to a discussion of the minimum salaries of MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL.  Baseball seems like the best deal... minimum of $480,000 a year.

A little pictoral tribute to the beautiful Angelina Jolie...

Tools With Sports

Lots of stuff going on in sports.... Bills news, NBA playoffs, NHL playoffs, and athlete arrests.

Buddy Nix resigned as Buffalo Bills GM, saying he didn't have the energy anymore.  Nix assistant Dog Whaley takes over.

Wease is mad he hasn't bet on the Miami Heat during the NBA playoffs they've been so dominant.  The spread on the next game will probably be too high.

In hockey, Toronto must be jinxed because they are too close to Buffalo.  Last night the Maple Leafs squandered a 3 goal lead, losing to Boston in overtime.

Tools tells us the story of former Detroit Lion Wide receiver Titus Young, who was arrested 3 times in one week before being released.  Are the Buffalo Bills in Mr. Young's future?

Redneck News

Reggie Jackson

Mr. October joins us on the phone to promote this Saturday's "Field Of Dreams Pepsi Max Challenge" at Frontier Field.  Reggie is among the dozen baseball legends in town.  He didn't seem to want to talk about anything other than this weekends game, and was a little awkward answering questions about anything else.

Chuck Prophet

San Francisco rock & roller Chuck Prophet joins us in studio with Lilac Festival promoter Jeff Springut to promote tonight's concert at Highland Park.  Chuck tells us about his work with Warren Zevon, Lucinda Williams, life as a touring musician.  Wease and Billy spend the whole segment trying to figure out who he looks like.  He also tells us about his 15 years clean and sober, and investigate why Wease gets drunk so quickly.

Marty Feldman Eyes

While talking with Chuck Prophet we learn he did some work with (and possibly banged) singer Kim Carnes, best known for her monster hit "Bette Davis Eyes".  This lead Wease to singing the parody "Marty Feldman Eyes", which Billy thought Wease made up... turns out Billy was wrong.

We also find the song "Colonel Sanders Thighs"

Latest On Cleveland Kidnapping

The story of the Cleveland kidnapping is still in the news.  The brothers of kidnapper Ariel Castro were interviewed on CNN.  Here's a small piece.

Also, the legend of hero Charles Ramsey has lead someone to immortalize Charles.

Eight days ago, Charles Ramsey became an Internet hero when he helped rescue those women who were kidnapped in Cleveland . . . then gave an interview that was enthusiastic and crazy enough to go viral.

Later last week, it came out that Ramsey had done prison time after three convictions for beating his wife.  He's made amends and seems to have pulled it together, but still.

And now, the latest development in the Charles Ramsey story is . . . he's become a TATTOO.

34-year-old Stephen Munhollon of Cleveland just got Charles Ramsey's FACE tattooed on his right calf.  Stephen's friend is a tattoo artist named Rodney Rose, and he offered to do it for free.

Stephen says people have loved his tattoo so far.  Quote, "Everyone knows who this guy is now.  I wasn't sure if people would think it was JIMI HENDRIX or BOB MARLEY, but everyone knew right away it was Charles Ramsey."

According to a new survey, these are the 10 best ways to pamper yourself:

Tomorrow's Show

TO PEE OR NOT TO PEE

Our friend Teddy Geiger was in the studio last Friday.  Wease told us he showed Teddy where the bathroom was but didn't want to pee at the same time as Teddy for fear it would look like he was trying to peep.  Marianne had no idea this was an issue men had to deal with.  Pauly explained there is always an etiquette issue when choosing which urinal to use.  Kinda makes a guy want to skip it all and just pee in a cup - right?!

LILAC FEST

Pauly was really nervous to introduce Eddie Money at The Lilac Fest this weekend. Turns out he got shut down by the band themselves who decided to rush the stage and immediately introduce themselves.  Poor Pauly - so much worrying for nothing!  Brooksie had his own issues - accidentally spilling beer onstage while introducing Spin Doctors.  The stage manager was pissed but I mean - what do you expect?  It's The Wease Show crew!

Check out the full Lilac Festival schedule HERE

MAMA'S DAY

Wease told us about his Mother's Day - he did things right with breakfast with the fam at Mama Lor's, some hang time at The Wease crib then dinner at Black and Blu followed by his new favorite movie, Mud.  Marianne told us about her Friday night watching Siversun Pickups with her friend.  She talked about how once you have one drink you can't taste liquor anymore which is why girls always complain to bartenders that there's not enough booze in their drink.  Pauly and Wease believe rum doesn't have as much alcohol content as others because they never feel drunk after drinking it.

Watch your TONE!

Today the crew stepped into Dr. Sierk's office and learned a thing or two about how to talk to a loved one when they're upset.  It's not what you say it's HOW you say it!   Doreeen asked Wease a question that he deemed......crazy....and instead of answering sweetly he got angry.  Marianne suggested using "I feel" words.  And no, that doesn't mean saying, "I FEEL you're being crazy". 

JAHAR!?  I DON'T EVEN KNOW HER!

Wease tells us about a girl that is getting a tattoo with the alleged Boston bomber's tweet and the words "Free Jahar".  He talks about how many women start to develop crushes on convicted criminals.  Weeeeeeird!!!

JAMES COLEMAN VISITS!

Young filmmaker James Coleman visits the studio.  He's in the process of starting to film his dream movie about crime lords and wanted Wease to play a detective.  Wease isn't sure he wants to continue his acting career but definitly knows a coupla guys that could fill James in on the "crime world".....maybe more than a couple of guys.....

Love in an Elevator

Billy is on vacation!  Wease will miss his "brain" but will make do with Google in the meantime.

Wease recapped the Cleavland story and told us Ariel Castro wrote a suicide note in 2004 saying he was a sex addict and blamed a twisted childhood for his "need" to keep the girls captives. 

Toolsie was trapped in an elevator!  Tools tells the crew he was riding the elevator when it stopped suddenly.  He was stuck for 35 minutes but had Dunkin Donuts coffee and his smart phone so we thought he was all set for a few hours.  He could've sat down and chilled out but he remembered a certain story about Pauly being stuck in an elevator and.....well the rest we know.

After his elevator story he talked about sports for a while it sounded like this "Blah blah blah blah" (This is Marianne doing the run down so that's all I heard)

Movies and More

Film critic Marshall Fine calls in to tell us which movies he likes from this week's releases.  Wease's kid Sammy wanted to go to the midnight showing of "Great Gatsby" which was a no go.  Marshall said he unexpectedly liked the movie and also said the new Tyler Perry movie, "We the Peeples" looked good.  Tyler Perry?  Who knew!

Check out more reviews on his website HERE

Meet Mario!

This is Mario.  Wease met him at The Angus House last night and we think he looks a little like our friend Kevin Legrett!  What do you think?

I don't know why the font size keeps changing but this is my first time doing the rundown so don't hate.

Judy Gold and Teddy Gieger are here!

Our favorite comedian Judy Gold visits the studio!  Wease and Judy talk about her recent appearance on "Chopped".  She had to make an appetizer out of chicken, avacado and a cupcake.  It didn't go well.  Then our friend Teddy Geiger came in hauling his guitar.  Wease taught him what the show Nashville is all about.  Wease believes he must get laid all day long but he was so innocent and sweet he didn't want to answer.  He's about to play guitar so I'm going to stop typing and start drooling.

Look how great Teddy looks while singing his dreamy songs directly to Marianne.  Kind of funny that he wrote all those love songs for her but they just met that day.  Hmmmm......

Mirbeau Spa Gals

Some lovely gals from the Mirbeau Inn & Spa came to visit us today.  They gave Judy one helluva massage while she looked at pictures of boobies.  She was in heaven.  The girls told us about some fantastic deals going on at their salon - you can see more HERE

Cleveland Rocks

The Cleveland kidnapping story is ongoing.  Wease gives some of his latest thoughts about it.  News has come out how hero Charles Ramsey is a convicted felon whose rap sheet includes three separate domestic violence convictions that resulted in prison terms.  We predicted he had some past problems, but we don't think this negates the good he just did.

Marianne has noticed how Charles seems tired of doing interviews, and has stopped being himself... the funny, outspoken character we fell in love with.

Pauly tells us about other problems the Cleveland police have had recently, including shooting and killing unarmed suspects in a car chase.  Sure makes me less likely to visit Cleveland...

Tools also tells us the sad story of a Chicago teacher that choked on a hotdog at a Chicago Cubs game, and died.  This leads to a discussion of why hotdogs are the food most likely to choke on.

The Ugly Details

Wease reads the story, and comments on, the terrible story of the details being released on how the Cleveland kidnap victims were treated while in captivity.  Wease and the rest of us are shocked to hear that only Ariel Castro, and not his brothers were charged with the crimes.  Thanks to CBS News for their excellent reporting.

In the years after his friend's daughter vanished while walking home from school, Ariel Castro handed out fliers with the 14-year-old's photo and performed music at a fundraiser held in her honor.

When neighbors gathered for a candlelight vigil just a year ago to remember the girl, Castro was there too, comforting the girl's mother.

Castro, just like everyone else in the tight-knit, mostly Puerto Rican neighborhood, seemed shaken by the 2004 disappearance of Gina DeJesus and another teenager who went missing the year before.

Now he and his brothers are in custody after a frantic 911 call led police to his run-down house, where authorities say DeJesus and two other women missing for about a decade were held captive.

Authorities have until Wednesday evening to bring charges against the men.

Two separate sources on the investigation told CBS News Wednesday that Ariel Castro is the focus of the investigation.

While the investigation remains ongoing, there doesn't appear to be any evidence at this time that Castro's brothers - Pedro Castro, 54, and Onil Castro, 50 - were involved in the abuse or abduction of the three victims, the sources told CBS News.

Those women - Amanda Berry, 27, Michelle Knight, 32, and DeJesus, 23 - never left the house the entire time they were held captive, the sources said.

On "CBS This Morning" Wednesday, CBS News correspondent Dean Reynolds reports that a clearer picture has emerged of what went on inside the house.

Police Chief Michael McGrath told Reynolds that the three victims spent much of their captivity on the second floor of Castro's house and that ropes, chains and padlocks were found on the premises.

Sources told CBS News that the women were all restrained for at least part of their decade-long captivity.

CBS Cleveland affiliate WOIO-TV reports that one woman told police she had gotten pregnant more than once but her captor beat her and she ended up losing the babies.

Ariel Castro's son, Anthony Castro, said in an interview with London's Daily Mail newspaper that he now speaks with his father just a few times a year and seldom visited his house. He said on his last visit, two weeks ago, his father wouldn't let him inside.

"The house was always locked," he said. "There were places we could never go. There were locks on the basement. Locks on the attic. Locks on the garage."

The women had apparently been held captive in the house since their teens or early 20s, police said.

Berry went to her sister's home Wednesday morning. Shortly after, her sister Beth Serrano thanked everyone for their effort and support over the years, adding "please respect our privacy until we are ready to make our statement, and thank you."

As word of Berry's homecoming spread, a large crowd swelled in the street outside the home decorated with dozens of balloons, and homemade signs, one reading "We Never Lost Hope Mandy."

DeJesus, who disappeared in 2004, also arrived home Wednesday afternoon to chants of "Gina! Gina!" Wearing a bright hooded shirt, DeJesus was escorted into her home by a woman with her arm around her.

A Cleveland hospital says Knight is now in good condition. On Tuesday, Metro Health Medical Center had said Knight had been released. On Wednesday, a hospital spokeswoman said Knight was in good condition at the hospital. It's not clear whether Knight was readmitted or if she actually never left the hospital.

A 6-year-old girl believed to be Berry's daughter also was found in the home Monday, police Deputy Chief Ed Tomba said. He wouldn't say who the father was.

About a week ago, Castro took the 6-year-old girl to a nearby park, where they played in the grass, said Israel Lugo, a neighbor who lives down the street. "I asked him whose kid was it, and he told me his girlfriend's daughter," Lugo said.

The women were reunited with joyous family members Tuesday. They were rescued after Berry kicked out the bottom portion of a locked screen door and used a neighbor's telephone to call 911. An officer showed up minutes later and Berry ran out and threw her arms around the officer, a neighbor said.

Police identified the other two suspects as the 52-year-old Castro's brothers. Calls to the jail went unanswered, and there was no response to interview requests sent to police, the jail and city officials.

A relative of the three brothers said their family was "totally shocked" after hearing about the missing women being found at the home.

Juan Alicea said the arrests of his wife's brothers had left relatives "as blindsided as anyone else" in their community. He said he hadn't been to the home of his brother-in-law Ariel Castro since the early 1990s but had eaten dinner with Castro at a different brother's house shortly before the arrests were made Monday.

Police would not say how the women were taken captive or whether they were sexually assaulted.

McGrath told NBC's "Today" show on Wednesday that the women were restrained and "released out in the back yard once in a while."

McGrath said he was "absolutely" sure police did everything they could to find the women over the years. He disputed claims by neighbors that officers had been called to the house before for suspicious circumstances. "We have no record of those calls coming in over the past 10 years," he said.

Investigators also are talking with relatives of at least one other missing woman from the neighborhood.

The aunt of a 14-year-old girl who disappeared in 2007 near the house where the missing women were found says the girl's mother has spoken with the FBI about her niece.

"We're hoping for our miracle too," said Debra Summers, who described her niece, Ashley Summers, as not the type of girl who would leave without coming back.

Ariel Castro owned the home where the three girls were found in a neighborhood dotted with boarded-up houses just south of downtown.

Anthony Castro, who lives in Columbus, also wrote an article for a community newspaper in Cleveland about the disappearance of Gina DeJesus just weeks after she went missing, when he was a college journalism student.

"That I wrote about this nearly 10 years ago — to find out that it is now so close to my family — it's unspeakable," he told The Plain Dealer newspaper.

Most everyone in the neighborhood knew Ariel Castro.

Neighbors say he played bass guitar in salsa and merengue bands and gave neighborhood children rides on his motorcycle.

Tito DeJesus, an uncle of Gina DeJesus, played in bands with Castro over the last 20 years. He recalled visiting Castro's house but never noticing anything out of the ordinary.

Juan Perez, who lives two doors down from the house, said Castro was always happy and respectful. "He gained trust with the kids and with the parents. You can only do that if you're nice," Perez said.

Castro also worked until recently as a school bus driver.

He was friends with DeJesus' father and helped search for her after she disappeared, said Khalid Samad, a friend of the family.

"When we went out to look for Gina, he helped pass out fliers," said Samad, a community activist who was at the hospital with DeJesus and her family on Monday night. "You know, he was friends with the family."

Antony Quiros said he was at the vigil about a year ago and saw Castro comforting Gina DeJesus' mother.

One neighbor, Francisco Cruz, said he was with Castro the day investigators dug up a yard looking for the girls.

Castro told Cruz, "They're not going to find anyone there," Cruz recalled.

Cleveland officials said an internal review of police communications records found that officers went to the house twice since 2000 on unrelated calls.

"Media reports of multiple calls to the Cleveland Police reporting suspicious activity and the mistreatment of women at 2207 Seymour are false," city spokeswoman Maureen Harper said in a statement.

Two neighbors said they called police to the Castro house on separate occasions.

Elsie Cintron, who lives three houses away, said her daughter saw a naked woman crawling in the backyard several years ago and called police. "But they didn't take it seriously," she said.

Lugo said he heard pounding on some of the doors of the house in November 2011. Lugo said officers knocked on the front door, but no one answered. "They walked to side of the house and then left," he said.

"Everyone in the neighborhood did what they had to do," said Lupe Collins, who is close to relatives of the women. "The police didn't do their job."

Police did go to the house twice in the past 15 years, but not in connection with the women's disappearance, officials said.

Knight's mother, Barbara Knight, told the "Today" show that she hasn't seen her daughter yet, but hopes she knows she loves and missed her. She said they had a tense relationship before Michelle's disappearance and at the time thought her daughter maybe just didn't want to see her family anymore. She said Michelle Knight's child had been removed from the home just before her disappearance, and thought perhaps she had vanished because she was upset about "the baby."

"I know she's probably angry at the world because she probably thought she'd never be found," she said.

Knight added that she hopes their past tension can heal, and she wants to take her daughter back to Florida, where she now lives.

In 1993, Castro was arrested two days after Christmas on a domestic-violence charge and spent three days in jail before he was released on bond. The case was presented to a grand jury, but no indictment was returned, according to court documents, which don't detail the allegations. It's unclear who brought the charge against Castro, who was living at the home from which the women escaped Monday.

Four years ago, in another poverty-stricken part of town, police were heavily criticized following the discovery of 11 women's bodies in the home and backyard of Anthony Sowell, who was later convicted of murder and sentenced to death.

The families of Sowell's victims accused police of failing to properly investigate the disappearances because most of the women were addicted to drugs and poor. For months, the stench of death hung over the house, but it was blamed on a sausage factory next door.

Following public outrage over the killings, a panel formed by the mayor recommended an overhaul of the city's handling of missing-person and sex crime investigations.

Many of the women's loved ones and friends had held out hope of seeing them again,

For years, Berry's mother kept her room exactly as it was, said Tina Miller, a cousin. When magazines addressed to Berry arrived, they were piled in the room alongside presents for birthdays and Christmases she missed. Berry's mother died in 2006.

Just over a month ago, Miller attended a vigil marking the 10th anniversary of Berry's disappearance.

Over the past decade or so, investigators twice dug up backyards looking for Berry and continued to receive tips about her and DeJesus every few months, even in recent years. The disappearance of the two girls was profiled on TV's "America's Most Wanted" in 2005. Few leads ever came in about Knight.

Knight vanished at age 20 in 2002. Berry disappeared at 16 in 2003, when she called her sister to say she was getting a ride home from her job at a Burger King. About a year later, DeJesus vanished.

Jessica Aponce, 24, said she walked home with DeJesus the day the teenager disappeared.

"She called her mom and told her mom she was on her way home and that's the last time I seen her," Aponce said. "I just can't wait to see her. I'm just so happy she's alive. It's been so many years that everybody thinking she was dead."

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children's CEO, John Ryan, said Berry, DeJesus and Knight likely would be honored by his group.

"I think they're going to be at the top of the list," he said.

Judy Gold

Judy Gold is one of Wease's favorite comedians, and is at The Comedy club this weekend.  She and Wease go back almost 20 years... he actually asked her to be his roommate when he was living at the Strong Mansion after his second divorce.  Judy and Wease talk about her coming out as a lesbian, Judy's sitcom and talk show credits, and the fun they used to have.  The chemistry her and Wease showed in this 15 minute phoner makes me look forward to her being in studio with him tomorrow.  We also talk about how Judy and Marianne both work on the TV show "World's Dumbest".

Wease also mentions a tweet he saw from Bobby Slayton yesterday promoting his hot daughters's new song, and leads to some Slayton stories, and how we've seen Natasha Slayton grow up over the years.

Bill Lawler Charity Run

Our old friend Retired Police Officer Bill Lawler joins us in studio to promote the 4th Annual Bill Lawler 5K Walk and Run for Huntington's Disease (the disease Bill suffers from).  Click HERE for info on tonight's Happy Hour/Raffle at Matthews on East Ave. and also everything you need to know about the run, which takes place this Saturday.

Wease and Bill talk about how the Cleveland police and 911 mishandled the kidnapping case in the news.  Lawler predicts that the Cleveland police chief will be fired.

Lawler also talks about how he learned he had Huntigtons, and how he was originally misdiagnosed... told he had cancer... and how important it is to get a second opinion.  Wease tells the story of the time he was told he had pancreatic cancer, and was scheduled for surgery.  He got a second opinion from John Hopkins University in Maryland, who correctly diagnosed that he didn't have cancer.

Geezers Vs. Douchebags

America's favorite game show is back, Billy and Wease vs. Pauly and Brooksie, with Marianne on the side making fun of everyone.

From Geezers to Dbags...

1.  Happy Mother's Day to moms this weekend.  What Hollywood legend was exposed as an abusive mother in the book and movie "Mommie Dearest"?  Brooksie cheated and knew it was Joan Crawford.

2.  This weekend is also the start of the Lilac Festival.  TV's first superstar was a comedian that hosted a variety show named after him, he was famous for dressing like a woman in comedy sketches, was known to have the biggest penis in Hollywood, and played Louie The Lilac on the 60's Batman TV show.  Clue for Pauly... In "Back To The Future" he's who Lorraine and her family are watching on TV when Marty first joins them for dinner back in the 50's.  This clue rattled Pauly's memory, but he couldn't quite pull it out... Milton Bearle.

 3. Today is the 67th birthday of actress Candice Bergen... her father was also famous entertainer... his name was Edgar Bergen.  What did Edgar do?  Only Wease and Billy knew he was a ventriloquist.

From Douchebags to Geezers

In Angry Birds.. you fling your birds towards what other type of animal?  (A- Pigs.. )  Billy got it right.

Lonely Island is a group of famous douchbags popular for their funny music videos.  They have a new one today on Pauly’s page on wease.com called “Spring Break Anthem”.  Where did Lonely Island gain their fame?  (A- Saturday Night Live.. )  Geezers get it right again.

According to The Billboard Hot 100.. this is the #1 song in the country.  For half a point each.. who sings it (there are 2 of them) and what’s it called?  (A- Pink featuring Nate Reuss from fun. “Give Me A Reason”.. ).  Wrong from Billy and Wease.

Geezers win 2-1

Shootout At 7-11

A discussion of what age you can leave kids home alone leads to leaving kids alone in the car.  Marianne and callers make up scenarios of what could happen if Wease leaves a baby in the car... everything from shootouts to heart attacks occur in Marianne's paranoid world, but if I was going into a store that had a guns being drawn I think I'd want the baby in the car.

Tomorrow's Show

A big Friday show tomorrow that includes film reviews from Marshall Fine, comedian Judy Gold in studio, also in studio will be pop star Teddy Geiger, and we'll be giving away front row tickets for Bill Maher at the Auditorium Theater in July.  It's nice to be impoirtant, but more important to be nice.
