R.I.P Boston Scott

We start Monday's show with heavy hearts.  On Saturday.. our biggest fan.. Scott Machado (aka "Boston Scott") died in his sleep.  Wease and Jamie are both back from vacations and we want to get to their happy stories but there was just no way that we could start this morning's show without paying our respects to Scott.  Scott was born in Rockland, Massachusetts but lived for a while here in Rochester.  He was most recently living in Danville, Virginia.  While living here in Rochester.. he listened to Wease and came to his LIVE broadcasts anytime The Wease Show was out and about.  Wease became very fond of Scott and will miss hearing from him via text and e-mail 7 days a week (he and Scott were that close). 

WARNING: This may make you cry.  This is the statement that Scott's son.. Scott Jr. left on his father's Facebook message yesterday:

I don't know ... I guess ... I feel like I should tell the people that don't know what tragic, tragic event happened this weekend ... Saturday morning I woke up on the floor of my dads living room, where I had fallen asleep watching a ghost show with my dad, he had had a fever the night before, very tired Friday, and sick the the past week or so, to find my dad in the same position he'd been in fo

r the past couple hours (like 12+ hours) sitting up in the futon slightly leaning to the right. I had woken up several times before that morning and didn't think anything of it, because sometimes he sleeps that way. Well he had left a light on from the night before and I tried to wake him up to ask him why it was on. When I went to shake his hand to wake him up it was cold, I checked his head and it was cold, terrified I checked his heart beat only to hear small small heartbeats that must've been my own. I immediatly called my mom crying not knowing what to do, after 3 failed tries I called 911 ... after that nothing was important up until one of the police officers told me ... my Father, Scott Anthony Machado Sr. had passed away."
Here are a few pictures to remember our Brother by:

..and he was the world's biggest Patriots fan.. he woulda enjoyed yesterday's win:

Tools/Bills talk/Breaking Brooksie's Balls

Johnny Di"Tools"io took his old seat in one of the guest chairs after spending last week in Wease's chair.  Wease thanked him for pinch hitting and Tools thanked Wease back for allowing him to fill in.  We started bitching about the Bills game yesterday and about how they are officially the 2nd worst defense in the NFL despite coming into the season with many experts predicting them to be amongst the best.  Who is the only defense worse than Buffalo you ask?  The Titans.  So before you say that Fitzpatrick had a good game yesterday.. remember that they are the only D that's actually worse than ours.  Wease's sons Jake and Sammy were at the game yesterday.  It was actually Sammy's first EVER Bills game.  Brooksie was there too.  We broke Brooksie's balls because he told us that he left the game with 3 minutes left to go to beat the traffic.  He then heard on the radio that they lost.  What kind of a man leaves a close game 3 minutes early?  Tools demands that he turns in his man card.

I'm From Holland..

Brother Wease spent last week in Aruba with his lovely bride Doreen celebrating their 15th wedding anniversary.  They had a blast together.. enjoying the beatiful weather and the fantastic meals.  The only thing that Wease didn't enjoy was the fact that he got killed at the poker table with bad beat after bad beat.  Early in on the vacation Wease and Doreen heard a song called "I'm From Holland.. Where The F*&$ You From?".  It turns out that a TON of the working staff in Aruba is from Holland and so after they all get off of work they got out and this is a song that they all seemed to be into.  So Wease and Doreen would scream out "I'm From Holland.. Where The F You From?" to anyone they saw that looked like they were from Holland.  Click here to listen to a clip of the song. 

Here are some pictures from Wease and Doreen's Aruban vacation:

This picture was taken for Doreen to show of her new Crocs that Wease bought for her as a gift.. but if you're looking at the shoes you're missing the reason we posted this picture:

Doreen and The Aruban Police

At one point on the vacation.. Doreen asked Wease to go and grab her glasses out of the car that they had rented.  He went out there and couldn't find them.. but did see that the fuse box looked like it had been broken into.  The glasses were gone.  Doreen started going nuts over the stolen glasses and the fact that someone had tried to steal her glasses.  Wease and Doreen got into a big fight because Wease kept saying that Doreen had lost her glasses and she insisted he get it right.. they were stolen.. she didn't lose them.  So Doreen demanded that Wease take her to the police station.  He doesn't want to.. saying that this is way too minor of a crime to report.  She calls the police and they come to the hotel.  Doreen asked that they dust for fingerprints which is kinda a ridiculous request.  She also admitted that she didn't lock the door which the Aruban police let her know was a bad bad move.  So a couple of days go bye and Doreen keeps bugging Wease to check back in with the police about the glasses while Wease tried to convince her that the fact that they would have them is VERY unrealistic.  Finally, they go to the police station and Wease warns that she's driving them crazy.. no glasses.  She INSISTED to go again on Sunday (yesterday).. no glasses.  She was still talking about it last night.  She wanted to stop in at pawn shops and look for them.  Wease thinks he's married to a crazy person.

Pauly & EJ at The Verhulst Haunted Hayride

On Saturday night.. our own Pauly and EJ the DJ went out to The Verhulst Haunted Hayride in Spencerport and got to be a part of the show.  Pauly dressed as Michael Myers and Emily as a regular wagon rider and the two pulled off a skit where Pauly pretended to pull Emily off the ride and she screamed "Help!  Help!  They're not supposed to be allowed to touch us!!"  It worked PERFECTLY.  The owner of the hayride.. Joanne Verhulst.. called in during the set to compliment Pauly and EJ on their acting skills.  Here's a picture of Pauly as Michael.. looks pretty convincing:

Jamie's Unique Concert Experience

Jamie spent a good part of last week in Austin, Texas visiting his wife's family.  While down there.. they decided to go and see a musician named Xavier Rudd who Jamie's wife has been a HUGE fan of for years.. since before she even met Jamie.  So they bought tix to the show and it was set to start at 9 with the doors opening at 8 and Jamie and his wife were panicking when they realized they were a little late and weren't going to get there until after 9.  They got there.. and were shocked at what they saw.  The place was EMPTY.  Not completely.. there was a handful of people there.. but when Jamie and his wife saw Xander in NYC it was shoulder to should with a few thousand people and in Austin there was like 50 people there.  On top of that.. Jamie was SHOCKED at the beer prices which were actually fair.  $3 for a beer?  Thank God!!  He remembers seeing this guy in NYC and paying $14 for a drink.

LOL w/SIS

Tonight at GEVA is an event called "LOL With SIS" (SIS = Sustain Inspire Survive).  It's a charity event to raise money for SIS which is an organization that fights against breast cancer and helps women who are going thru it now.. or have gone thru it.  It's a stand-up comedy event featuring local and national acts.  Tickets cost $40 and that includes your food plus the show.  Wease spent a few minutes with the whole "LOL With SIS" crew talking about the event and sharing a few laughs.  Here's a picture of Andrea Caruso.. who runs SIS.. and a few of the comedians who were kind enough to come in this morning:

A Bottle of Wine Per Day/Aretha Franklin

Wease said that this may have been his must drunken vacation ever.  He, Doreen, and their vacation mates put down 4 bottles of win per day.  In other words.. 1 bottle of wine per person per day.  Oy!!  Melvin is one of the comedians in for "LOL With SIS" (he's the black one.. we're not very politically correct here).  He told a story of having opened up for Aretha Franklin once and it was when she had just started getting fat and she was still dressing like a single chick.  Wease then told a story of having been backstage at a show that she played once and seeing her having to be carted around.. literally.. in a golf cart.

The Solution To Doreen's Stolen Glasses?

Someone called in to tell us that he has the inside story on what probably happened to Doreen's stolen glasses.  He told us that it's a regular scam there to steal glasses.. pop the lenses out.. and then put them right back up on the rack at the Optometrist's office.  Haven't you ever wondered why you can get some nice stuff so cheap down there?  It's because the shiznit is either fake or stolen!!  Wease thought about it and it makes sense to him.  Obviously.. whoever stole them can't be looking to use them because of the prescription.  What are the chances they'd be the same prescription?  Wease hopes Doreen isn't listening.. as he believes she just might hop on a plane back down to Aruba and go doctor's office by doctor's office trying to track down her frames. 

Plugs/Tomorrow's Show

You can be a HUGE help tonight AND get a great show by going to GEVA for "LOL With SIS".  If you're interested in tonight's Lions vs. Bears Monday Night Football game and/or Game 7 of The National League Championship Series.. Jamie will be at Hooligan's Eastside Grill in Webster tonight for sports trivia starting at 9pm.  John Ditullio will be doing the same thing at TC Hooligan's in Greece.  On tomorrow's show we'll have all the usual plus we anticipate a VERY awkward interview with Pauly Shore.. it'll be our first time having him on since last time's "incident".  Also on tomorrow's show we'll have a brand new edition of Redneck News plus all our usual stuff and much much more.  Until tomorrow.. it's nice to be important.. but it's more important to be nice!!
