So… here we are again, another Monday recap for you to wrap your brain around. Show started off with a hiccup or two, sound issues – someone has been fucking with the boards and things might sound a little wonky, but let’s roll with it and make it a bit for the first 15 minutes of the show. The engineer came in to fix the audio, so Ellis apologized and played 1 more song so the engineer can work his magic. Apparently there was a bet that Ellis wouldn’t be here today since he went racing this weekend. Ellis had himself a pretty good weekend racing. The guys mentioned the untimely death of Brett but didn’t want to discuss how or details because he doesn’t have 100% for sure facts, they also mention the untimely death of Eric the Midget. With all the sad out of the way, and hopefully all of the bad out of the way too, the show pushed on.
Ellis was thrilled with North Carolina, he loved the people, the fans, the food, all of it was mind blowing to him. Tiger has given Ellis the sickness, so that’s a bummer, but it is what it is – diseases man. So on to the races. Ellis yardsaled once like he’s known to do sometimes. He flipped the car end over end, got a bit of a concussion and some whiplash, and was left upside down for about 10 minutes. That part was on filmed too, so you’ll be able to easily spot him, he’ll be the one yardsaling like champ. He wrote that car off, which is pretty spectacular because it doesn’t happen very often, at least to all the other racers. It took him a bit to realize that his car was in 2WD and there was a little button to push that put it in 4WD. As soon as he was in 4WD, he’s like “holy shit! This is handling so much better!” Go figure. He gets done with his race and people are telling him that he qualified for the main, and he doesn’t believe it, there must be a mistake. He doesn’t even know how he did and is happy with that alone, much less anything else that may be coming up. By the way, these races will be televised on CBS or some shit and he’ll let everyone know when as soon as he knows. The people at the track had told Ellis if they have a spare car, they will give it to him. Turns out this dude in the Pro AM class is willing to give Ellis his buggy to race in. BOOM! Ellis qualified for the main again! Turns out that dude was a crazy redneck and ended up crashing his shit too and trashed it, so no car for Ellis again. In the end, Ellis went through 3 different cars, all of which ended up busted to shit – but he wasn’t responsible for all busting. He’s been invited back, he’s also going to have a buggy in California he can practice in. He was thrilled with it all and is still amazed by how nice everyone there was. All, he fell in love the BBQ and mac & cheese.
This year is the 10 year anniversary of Tony Hawks radio show, on Saturday Faction will be going to a big event with a bunch of special guests, including Tenacious D, that you can get tickets to. Horse Force – Tour de Horse is indeed still on for playing in New York at the Gramercy Theatre on October 25th, and Ellis has talked to Christian and everything is all fine and it’s all water under the bridge. There’s talk about another Horse Force show after New York that sounds pretty big, so be on the lookout for that. In Pot News, a news anchor in Alaska, Charlo Greene, quit her job on-air so she could focus on legalizing weed in the state. Skateboard correspondent Chris Cole called into the show to fill us in on some Dew Tour news in Brooklyn. Somebody won, somebody lost, somebody was good, and somebody sucked. Ellis & Chris traded old skate stories for awhile and talked about how Pink skated at Woodard before she was Pink (she was white). HEYOH! MMA News, I missed all of that thanks to work getting in the way. But hey, on the plus side, no spoilers!
Canadian News time, Calgary was overrun with 542 Batmen to set a new Guinness World Record, organized by the United Way charity. Remember when Ellis said Borgman was a good movie to watch? Well it is/was and some people even agreed. However, here’s a movie Ellis does not recommend you watch The Honeymoon, it was like having a load of balls in your mouth. I soon got lost because there was talk about some brother from Moon Patrol Twilight’s brother to a guy who’s brother is Guy but his brother is better than Tom Cruise and brother put together, mother brother. I can’t tell if we’re talking about printers, movies, or pound cake. He watched another movie on the plane and cried after the movie, it was a documentary about a race car driver called Center Senna. There we go, Ayrton Senna, that’s the ticket. Tully finds he cries very easily watching movies on planes, the last time Will cried was at the end of The Notebook. Seriously, Will? Then work interrupted again and I came into the story about the Django Unchained actress getting busted having sex with her boyfriend in their car. After that, it was time for a quick impression by Hotdog. He was just as good if not better than Stupid Tits as his impression mysteriously ate all the same food he does in real life. Turns out, it was Marilyn Monroe, who he knows nothing about.
After a quick break, Conor McGregor came into the studio. You may know him by the other names he’s been called, Cooner McGrubby, Clooney McGrooby, etc. He’s a well dressed Irishman in the UFC and thinks American’s don’t know how to dress. He sounds like a good guy (not in the IRA) and was a good talker (I could understand him) and rolled with the questions like champ (he just might be soon). It was an entertaining interview and if you’re an MMA fan, I suspect you will be entertained too. A US based massage therapist has undergone surgery to add a third breast so she can become a reality TV star. She’s kind of like the Griswold’s family truckster of titties. WWE correspondent and fellow Wolfknives member, Blowgay Simpson, called in to give us an update on wrastlin’, Cena-stravaganza at Hell In A Cell, and the new Divas champion. Did you know 7-Up used to contain lithium? That’s right, it did and it stopped people from killing their families until 1950. And that’s when people started killing their families. Coincidence? Hey, Wolf Scrub is out, it’s for sale now on Etsy, and it is most likely safe for your ass, as far as anyone knows. I mean, in case Mr. X is wondering. And there you have it. Today’s show. Now I gotta go poop.
