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.

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.
