Marc had a terrible scare on his way home from the gym several days ago. Driving back from the gym he got stuck in traffic caused by an extremely violent street fight on North Clark Street.

According to Marc:
“I had a front row seat to this incredible scene of a gang of young men attacking each other. I first thought ‘Should I take a picture of this with my phone or should I call 911?’ I called the police but got nothing except ‘your call cannot be completed as dialed.’ A moment later I saw the blue light of the squad car trying to make it’s way through the major traffic jam that the incident caused and four or five of the fight participants jumped into a blue car and cruised north heading my way.

I considered taking a picture but since I was stuck with cars in front of me and behind me and the car loaded with hooligans was heading my way, I just stayed chilled as they drove by. The car driver, who looked like he had received several blows to his eyes and face made eye contact as he passed by for what seemed like an eternity. There was a look of pain in his eyes.

As traffic cleared up and I passed the other vehicle involved in the incident I saw a young man who’s white Tshirt was covered in blood. He removed his tshirt and began to cry as the cop stood there trying to sort what happened and his two friends sat in their white SUV. I don’t know what happened but if anybody finds out about it, I’d love to hear what happened.”

What would you do in the same situation?

We have a big bucket of dumb on today’s show.

Join us as we discuss the recipients of the Darwin Awards 2007, which commemorate those who improve the human gene pool by accidentally removing themselves from it. It is a salute to stupid, or at least the unfortunate.

As you look over these stories of woeful calamity, you can’t seem to help notice that there are several trends happening here- drunken mishaps, electrocution, playing with fire/explosives, salvaging support structures and sex in odd places.

It’s easy to laugh at the tragic misfortunes of others, but let’s face it, there have been times in our own lives that we’ve made a mistake and put ourselves in the face of danger. How close have you come to making to the Darwin Awards? Please let us know.

On this show, we also invited you our listeners to join in on the fun and share their stories as we tried to answer the question “What is something stupid you’ve done that almost got you killed?”

Join Amanda Steinstein, Adam Guerino, Marc Felion and me Fausto Fernós as we talk about the sexy couple that succumbed to the power of the pyramid, the guy who bought the farm by tearing down the barn, teenagers who give a whole new meaning to the term “flash-dance” and the man who mistook bears for beer.

Join us next Sunday January 20, 7pm central for our next call in show. We’ll be announcing the guest and theme on Friday. Check the website for details.

If you live in Chicago, check out Adam Guerino’s upcoming shows:
January 21, 2008 - 8:30P Kitty Moon at 6237 N Clark
February 2 and February 16 at Edge Comedy Club at 777 N. Green Street

We’re back for a Friday show…ON YOUR FACE! Roy joins the program for the first time in the 2008 time, and he has a special announcement and offer just for NLO listeners. We offer a fan some intimate love advice - after all, that’s what we are here for. We talk about people rummaging through the garbage, a Golf Channel reporter making a “racist” remark about Tiger Woods, and Johnny fills us in on his the latest happenings in his life, including his super fat friends and his son’s new cell phone.

Snip snip! The gayest television show on right now isn’t Ugly Betty, it’s Project Runway on Bravo! The Emmy nominated reality series showcases 12 or more fashion designers compete with each other to create the best clothes restricted by time, materials and a theme.

Giving the viewer a great perspective on the anxieties and challenges of being a working designer in any field, Project Runway is right now one of the hottest shows on television.

One of the most talked about contestants is Christian V Siriano, our featured guest on todays show!

Known for being the youngest contestant on the show as well as for his unrestrained opinions and asymmetrical haircut, Christian brings a lot of pizzaz to the show.

Join Marc Felion and me, Fausto Fernós as we talk with Christian about the challenges of being in a reality-tv show competition, finding inspiration as a designer and if there was any sexual tension happening behind the scenes.

Just what is Tim Gunn REALLY like? Was Christian really fighting that much with Matty over the chocolate brown prom dress? How does he cope with the stress?

If you see Christian walking around the streets of New York City, don’t ask him who won. Because fashion week is in February, the producers of the show waited to decide who the winner is during that time despite the current series being filmed in July of 2007.

Do we think Christian made it to the top three? Will he win? We certainly hope so! Be sure to check out his personal website with tons of images of his fashion designs.Photos of Christian V Siriano by Brad Walsh.
Be sure to check out Project Runway on Bravo every Wednesday, 9pm Central, 6pm Pacific.

Out of the closet, always in fashion- Feast of Fools.

I think you lost dad at upload
That could be the catch phrase from a nerd movie
"You had me at upload"
Having the love of a nerd is like that of a Golden Retriever
The red in their eyes
Like the bloodhounds
We'll get your's fixed someday
You can get side by side
And then I'll get you plastic surgery, the both of you
We do dis and dis, but not dis
I should have bitten his face
We took the dogs to the groomer
Changing deaf dogs name every three weeks
What does it matter?
You know what happens to 15 dogs right?
Sure, they die
No
The dog is walking around with cancer and a 13th nipple
Dog groomers should know better and look for lumps
The number one thing that gets skipped is the finger in the butt
No one wants to drain a dog
Let fail you
Betsy likens web designers with Goodwill
The two handed dog shave
Like she was swinging a bat
The last time they cut off a mole
It was like a half-dollar size
Don't feed her by hand
She wants to even the score
How many times has this dog been to the pound?
Thirteen times
Mom is nuts when we go to vet or groomer
Sure, your dog is big and he pees on your knees
When we hit the door little deaf dog freaked
I didn't realize she was that aware
Of course she is
Then my mom takes on the trauma of the dog
I know from the Dog Whisperer that is not how to act
The dog wants someone to lead
First of all, she's deaf
I want you to write that in big block letters
She needs to be drained, I can tell
Then she feels guilty for bringing in the dog
I know how this goes
Then my mom will decide to put the dog to sleep
It only has one duty . . . eat what Maggie drops
I swear Shih Tzus were designed to catch spaghetti on their head
Just do what is least invasive
Gonna put in a Jarvik .021?
In six months we'll be Shih Tzu shopping again
Your mom is the Kevorkian of the dog adoption world
I got Wheel of Fortune auditions today!!
I know you are so excited
The sounds you were making when you got the email
If I win money I'm buying a goat
This here is the only petting zoo in the entire nation delivered to you in a Volvo
Designer outlet mall parking lots would never be the same
Two dollars, don't touch my goat
You need to be comfortable
What not to do
I was freaking because I thought from your yell something was happening
Sure, like Maggie went face first into a hot stove
Nope, just The Wheel
Eeyor tells you how to overcome your fear of success PBS special
What happens when Betsy is on and knows it?
You get too over the top . . . just catch yourself and reel it in
Kris, quit with the analogies
I say this as your number one fan
I have been there for every party where you hold court
You'll be fine
Marcus hits my cart
He says, "who the hell are you?"
I ask where the butter dish is at
His reply, "Oooooooo oooooOOOO"
The manager walks up and taps me on the shoulder, "did you see that doll house?"

We're Back!!
Fake intro
New intro
New show art also
Welcome to what we're calling, 'Season 4'
We gotta keep it fresh
The show turns out to be a huge part of our lives
We interact through the show
You don't talk to me about your life
Now all you want is for me to be your 'manny' and watch the kids
We need the show for sharing with one another
Some really hilarious things happened
Painful for me
I am still in pain
You whiney monkey, hush
I get to call him out on this fakey, fakey shit
Can I tell the story?
Sure, give it your shot
You won't be able to do it
So you went to Elliot's holiday play
You left early
And guilty you should be
I had to leave!
No you didn't, you are unemployed
I'm literally being drug under a semi by you
I can't tell you about my secret he tells us
I never heard grand finale
Kris cuts out early, early
Let me tell this story
You are unemployed, you have no business
You shouldn't even look at your watch, bub
And yes, I felt guilty
So you decided to take him sledding
Let me tell this story
I go sledding with the man at 'Winter Mountain'
It's a snowboard hill near the house
It goes like this . . .
Big man on a small sled
Big man meets mogul and ground with his chest
This hill is getting bigger and bigger and Kris
Why where you sledding Kris?
You are an adult
When I landed on my side it sounded like bubble wrap popping
My chest was burning and I was out of breath
Right and you call me!!! Me!!!
I am trying to rest
You would have been better off with a Hefty back greased with Crisco
So you refuse to go to the emergency room
Days later you are still in pain
It was killing me
I was trying to be tough for my son
Kris, I put myself in danger for you
For absolutely nothing I did it
There was no red snow
You weren't dead or dying
I finally get you Urgent Care
After x-rays
Remember to take deep breaths
You have a 'Chest Wall Injury'
Kris you have a CWI!!!!
WTF, that isn't real!
I learned that I am made of dough
I am out of shape and things that moved weren't supposed to


Two news items:

1) We talked about changing up the show but couldn't come up with a format other than what we've got. So we're going to continue on until we reach our 500th show in about 5 months. If we do any shows after that they are bonus.
2) We're starting a new weekly podcast January 19th delivered every Saturday. It will be a ResaleQueen podcast focused on, well, what else but resale issues.

Jesus, Satan, UFO’s, crystal skulls, trickle-down economics and the flying spaghetti monster all make an appearance on today’s show. Your favorite lovable “That girl” for the modern day trannie, Tracy Tyler joins us once again to reflect on peoples beliefs when it comes to life, love and the nature of the universe.

Tracy Tyler’s aura is purple because a friend of hers told her so. Some people believe that everyone carries a paranormal “glow” around them whose color reveals a lot about their personality and ultimately their destiny. Depending on what school of crazy you go to, some folks glow yellow, while others are pink and purple. Does anyone have a polka dotted aura?

At the end of the day, it’s all about trying to understand who you are as a person, which is a good thing. But if these types of ideas give people the idea that self-improvement can be a quick and easy process or that it can be done without taking a good hard look at yourself, that’s not such a good thing.

Join Tracy Tyler, Marc Felion and me, Fausto Fernós as we talk about colors, auras, religion, oddly flavored Mexican beer, ungifting bad gifts and the very rare purple pearl, which a woman in a seafood bar found in her meal! Her $10 meal might earn her thousands of dollars. Can you believe it?

What impact do derogatory words have on us? When we hear slurs aimed at others it may be funny, but what happens when they are aimed at us? What happens when we become used to it? Stop the hate in 2008 folks!

Most of the sexual activities we participate in aren’t exclusive to humans. In biologist Bruce Bagemihl’s book “Biological Exuberance: Animal Homosexuality and Natural Diversity” documents in colorful detail the sexual diversity of the animal kingdom. Your average acre of tropical rain forest has more gay sex happening in it than Senator Larry Craig’s favorite men’s bathroom at the International Minneapolis airport.

I do, I do, I do believe in faeries and in the Feast of Fools!

Tracy Tyler is single again! Our enchanting chanteuse and interior designer Tracy Tyler joins us on today’s show to share the juicy details of her love life as a modern trans woman.

Just what happens when you bring home a 6′5″ tall Eastern European stud and he finds out that you’re trans?

If you want to see the future President of the United States breaking down, turn on the TV this week. As the race for the primaries heats up, political candidates all over the country are dropping dead from exhaustion and bursting into tears in front of the cameras. Well, almost. After all, they are politicians.

This past weekend we were treated to gawking as Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton struggling to stay ahead of Barak Obama, fighting back the tears of frustration. Girlfriend, hang in there, I know how it feels.

Will Obama prevail or will Hillary become the Democratic candidate? Either way in this election, everyone wins. The bar has been set SO low by our current President, even a head of cabbage stands a good chance of winning.

UPDATE: Now that Hilary has won the New Hampshire primary, take a look at her face! I don’t think she’s ever smiled this big.

I’m not sure if Hilary or Barak have tried this, but on today’s show Tracy talks about ways you can sabotage your competition in a signing contest. She may look like she’s read from the Preppie Handbook, but I have a hunch she’s been sneaking a peek at the retro hippie/commie terrorist manual, the Anarchist’s Cookbook.

Watch out American Idol competitors! If you can hear me, keep an eye on your water bottle. You never know when somebody may stick a little Dieffenbachia in your drink.

In this trendwatching podcast, Cathi Bond spies doggy java, a water-and-vitamin combo to give your doggie a coffee-like experience (complete with “coffee” mug) while making sure he’s hydrated.  Cathi thinks it’s part of extending nanny culture to our pets.

Meanwhile, Nora Young mentions a very interesting Forbes article  on China’s new plans to kick up their economic full court press.

Plus, Cathi has an extensive look ahead at what happens as we move to digital TV, as people get HDTVs and try to marry them with their old DVD players.  Here are her notes:

I saw something on Gizmodo about how the FCC is changing their deadline on digital signals. In the States it was supposed to be 2009 and now they’ve adjusted it to 2012

 

What does this mean? Here are my scattered findings.

 

I use rabbit ears at the farm and get everything I want. Does this mean that I’m out of luck?

 

Nope. You can actually use an external antennae on a high def set, provided that you’re close enough to the broadcast tower. But it’ll have to be a special hi-def antennae.

 

What about my old DVDs? Can I still play them?

 

Not all DVD players are created equal. Connecting an average DVD player to a High Definition display can be a disconcerting experience. The process of converting a Standard Definition DVD signal to the native resolution of the display may cause a host of video artifacts if not performed properly.

 

If you have an expensive machine and can connect directly, everything stays digital and it’s tickety boo. If not, everything has to be converted from analogue standard play to digital before it can be played and this frequently causes the video artifacts etc.

 

My cheapy DVDs don’t have the special adaptor. And I imagine many others don’t either. Quality deinterlacing and scaling are the key components to stable, artifact-free movie watching,

 

What about watching HDTV on an old analogue set?

 

You’ll have to an STB a set top box. I have one of those for the DVD up at the farm because the old TV doesn’t have the RCA inputs. My contact at Telecity tells me that the big issue is that when they shut off the analogue signal there will be *no* more free analogue airwaves, ergo the only way you’ll be able to get any existing analogue channels will be through cable. Bye bye rabbit ears, but hello snazzy new HD antennae, which many bloggers say is even better than fibre optic lines.

 

All for now
