Today’s show has replaced the Cloverfield episode as our loudest ever! For good reason too. Two of the hosts from Spankwagon Radio, what we’ll call our show’s evil twin from right here in Vegas, join us at Who Asked You? HQ. Of course, they might call our show their evil twin. In any case, it’s incredibly strange how similar our shows are not just in decibels, but also topics being discussed and the people discussing them. Chase and Charlie paid their show a visit a few week’s back, so they returned the favor. Chase has an uncanny similarity to Spankwagon’s Trencher. Meanwhile his co-host Murphy is like a hybrid of Charlie and Dennis.
Trencher and Murphy told us they never got invited onto other shows before, so they were excited to stop by ours and even brought us some gifts. There was something for everyone on our panel. The gifts arrived in a Disney Princess bag and inside were two cans of drink, Steel Reserve and Olde English Brand… Mmmm. To go with our new beverages was a large assortment of porn and some free minutes cards for a porn VOD website. Come on, it’s Spankwagon and Who Asked You? conversing in the same room with one another. Porn is not an “if” topic, it’s a “must”.
At some point we put the porno down and after rambling about Ninja Turtles, how racist Smurfs were and the fact that Snorks had big dicks on their heads, get into some sort of… umm… show… ish thing.
Irreverent banter plagues your ears as we go through this week’s list of new DVD releases. From there it’s onto a new clip fresh from the dirty presses of Dirty Potter. We introduce the Spankwagon fellas to Dirty Potter’s work with his newest masterpiece, Dirty the Pooh and the Hundred-Acre Shit Pile, Chapter 1. That means there’s more on the way!
We get Trencher and Murphy in on a quick segment of Best Worst Most Least. And that’s really all we have time for on the show. But in the final moments the Best Worst Most Least bit leads, as you’d probably guess, into more pornographic prattle. So in a way, we also had time for Who Fucked You?. Thanks again to Trencher and Murphy of Spankwagon Radio for coming by and being inducted into the Who Asked You? Wall Of… Shame, Blame, Fame, Lame… whatever you feel fits best. I’m sure these guys will come by again, and likewise, you can probably expect the Who Asked You? Crew to invade their studio sometime soon as well. They’re a blast, we hope you enjoy the show; ours and theirs!

It’s a fun mixed-bag show we have for you this week. We’re joined by our good-gangster pal, Evan Pederson. You can find him on FancyPantsGangsters.com. He Skypes in all the way from Minnesota to add his two cents to the chaos of our show. After getting the low down on Evan’s site we receive a question from a listener regarding comics and/or super heroes we feel need a movie reboot or just need a movie in general. The list is short to say the least. Mike goes with nothing. Charlie goes with Green Hornet, which isn’t even out yet, but needs it already. Chase agrees with him. Dennis chooses Moon Knight while Evan considers a reboot of the Crow as well as an indie comic called Battle Pope. You can read more about Battle Pope in the Show Links. And we’ve also got an image of one of the comic’s covers there too.
This warms us up to the body of the show starting out with Dennis’ adventure at the dentist’s office. You see, Evan was originally going to fill in for Dennis because he wasn’t sure he’d be able to talk after having ALL of his wisdom teeth yanked out Friday. But thankfully, they’re healing fast enough Dennis was able to join us and regale us on the dental-details.
From there we bring you last week’s poll results. You may remember we talked about the semen-based cook book found at lulu.com. Well we asked you the listeners if you’d ever try a recipe that had semen in it and the answers were quite interesting. We posed the question to Evan, and his answer was too.
And as we mentioned last week Charlie had the chance to interview a couple of voice-actors, Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt from Hollywood about working in the field of voice over. He met up with them at their book signing here in Las Vegas and chatted for about 30 minutes. We’ve got a small chunk of that discussion on today’s show and you can hear the entire interview below!
We round out today’s program with the nominations for this year’s Razzie Awards. They’ll be announced this weekend, the night before the Oscars. And since we’re considered haters by many who listen to our show, what better awards to talk about than those that reward flagrant incompetence. The fellas chime in with their thoughts on each of the nominees. And as you’ll hear, several of the films and their casts and crews are nominated in several categories. It’s easy to figure out by the 5 noms you’ll hear over and over which 5 flicks could be considered the worst of 2009. And since we’re rounding out another decade the Razzies are considering the worst actors, actresses and movies of the past ten years in 3 special “of the decade” categories. We’ve got those too. Clearly the films that make the Razzie roster aren’t palatable to most, perhaps like semen-based recipes they just need that “secret ingredient” to make them good.

Today we received an E-Mail from fan and recent guest-host Katsuhiko Jinnai regarding the new remake of “We Are The World”. He felt he needed to rant about how awful it was. And that’s cool with us. We welcome rants to our E-Mail form. God knows we do enough of it on the show and we want you to have that chance too. We’ve got the music video in the Show Links. Watch it and judge for yourself.
A bit later in the show we get some career advice from a random vote on the We Ask You Online Poll. That’s what we get when there’s an “other” field. People sending their negative feedback about our show through the poll system. The question from last week asked what the most was you had ever spent on an eBay auction. A good portion of the voters said more than $50. This led us into a Best Worst Most Least segment. The first question being what the most was any of us had ever spent on eBay. Needless to say, we had all at some point spent more than $50 as well. The last question being the “worst” one… err… being the “worst” question in the segment, ahh… umm… you know what I mean. Not the worst question, but the “worst” question. Anyway, it somehow leads into a reminisce about one of Dennis’ favorite eateries, Kenny Rogers Roasters, hence the title of today’s show. Plus with all the talk of sexual positions and semen, it seemed only appropriate that the episode title have the word “wood” in it.
We didn’t have time to get to Who Fucked You? last week so we put it at the top of the to-do list this week. You know, because it’s such an invaluable segment. As this segment usually does, it drops our show into an even cruder black hole. Usually we can climb out of it rather quickly with a segment of It’s The Law or something, but not this week. Once in the hole, we grab some shovels and dig a little deeper with a story about a cook book published a few years back featuring only recipes that call for human semen. You can imagine the conversation on this one.
The caliber of the show is raised, if only slightly, by the segment that follows, What Is Michael Bay Up To? Sometimes we have to check in with our good pal Michael Bay to see what explosion he’s unleashing upon the world next. Turns out, it’s an explosion of cash. And a good portion of it was probably yours at one time. You know, that brief time before you went to see Transformers 2?
Plus, the folks who brought us Black Dynamite is bringing us… well… Black Dynamite again. This time in the form of an Adult Swim animated series on Cartoon Network. The company that animated the credit sequence at the start of the film will also be charged with animated this new series. According to Black Dynamite’s director they’re going to use many of the ideas in the cartoon that they couldn’t practically execute in the live-action movie. If the ideas for the cartoon are wilder than those in the movie this show is going to be nuts!
And Bill Shatner will have to write a sequel to his autobiography, “Up Till Now” because he’s landed another role on television! This time it’s saying crazy shit as someone’s dad. We brought you some news a few shows back about a guy who scored a TV pilot deal from posting random one-liners his dad would say to him on Twitter. Well it appears Captain Kirk has warped into the lead role for that pilot. This could be good… but we’re still apprehensive. A show based on a Twitter account? A dirty one at that. Most of the shit this guy’s dad says can’t be said on network TV. But here’s hoping the Price Line Negotiator can make it work.

If you’ve been having problems with your iTunes subscription we apologize… it is now working properly. After 3 years it got a little dirty and needed some cleaning up. Apparently older versions of iTunes put up with the mess… The latest version did not. It’s all good now.

It’s no secret that the Who Asked You? headquarters are based in sin city. Could they really be at home anywhere else? So whenever a concept for a new TV show or movie comes along that takes place in our beloved Mohave-based abode we look on it with much speculation. Will it be a proper representation of our community? Shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation would have those of you who don’t live here believe there’s a tropical forest west of town and that CSI headquarters is on the corner of two major streets that don’t even cross each other. So when it came up this week that two new Vegas series have received pilot orders from NBC and CBS we thought we’d discuss the possibilities. Both series, of course, feature tired cliche gambling and Strip related names, but only one of the shows may potentially be entertaining enough to watch. We say this because the two guys writing and starring in it were quite successful already on another series on Comedy Central. However, Dennis’ disgust is shown with the second series, this one for CBS, because its description uses the term “buddy cop”… and given this poorly executed ploy in recent movies, that’s an automatic deal-killer. We’ve got some details for both shows these two networks may be rolling the dice on soon.
Also on today’s program is more reboot news. I’m not sure if you can tell or not, but I’m running out of ways to phrase that. It seems this kind of unfortunate info crops up at regular intervals now. This time the remake is a bit surprising given today’s soccer-mom filled pamper-fest of a world we live in. It’s actually a bit refreshing to see this particular movie being reintroduced given its morbid plot.
And other remake is on its way… only this one comes from the mid 70’s. Our favorite great white is coming back to the silver screen. Only this time he’ll most likely be virtual as apposed to a giant foam rubber puppet. And for the SECOND time, although Universal would have you believe it’s the first, the man-eating fish will be in 3D! Of course by now you have probably figured out we’re talking about Jaws. What you may not know is whose been circling the Matt Hooper role. This is where I’d end the paragraph with “you’ll want to hear this”… but, I’m not sure you do.
Did you know that in Monroe, Utah the law states that daylight must be visible between dance partners on the dance floor? That’s just one of the many oddball laws that come to us from the beehive state. And speaking of balls… did you know you could be fined as much as $50 for throwing snowballs in Provo? Man… what is there to do in Utah? As you might imagine, we get what some might consider a bit offensive with this It’s The Law. But hey, if you listen to our show regularly, then like us, you can take a joke and are not easily offended.
That also goes for another story on the script today. It seems in Australia there’s starting to be a shortage of small-breasted women on porn there. A movement by some politicians would remove pornography featuring these less blessed ladies for a really stupid reason. You’ve got to hear this one. You’ll also want to hear what female bodily function they want removed along with the tiny tits. It’s all on today’s Who Asked You?.

The first half of the movie releases coming out this year were just too much. We needed a break and we know you needed one too. Everyone needed some time to absorb what they had heard on our show. The pure terror of what awaits us on the silver screen in 2010 had to be shuttered for a week while we all regained our composure.
And we did just that. Last week was spent moving Mike and Dennis into their new home as well as moving all the Who Asked You? equipment into its. What better way to christen our new HQ than to finish up the Glance at Gloom 2010. When we last left you we had only made it up to May. So that’s exactly where we pick up this week’s show. May starts out hopeful though with Iron Man 2 debuting the first week. It’s all kinda down hill from there though.
To make things interesting and to prove our point that some of this year’s releases are so outrageous it’s as though they drew actors and plot points out of a hat, we decided to come up with a few of our own ideas for movies and throw them into the list randomly to see if you, or our co-hosts could tell the difference between the fake and the factual. As you’ll hear, this proves increasingly difficult. We invite you to play along.
Thank goodness our show returns to normal next week. I don’t think anyone would survive this list another show. But since we’re able to power through it with time to spare we won’t have to worry about it anymore. We’ll only have to worry when all these movies actually come out. There’s even time at the end of the show to throw in some unknowns… movies that are coming out this year, the studios just don’t know when yet. It’s like holding a steamy turd and throwing it at a giant wall calendar and seeing where it splats.
