Beer for Breakfast, Again and Again5:30 a.m.
Mat fears this weekend with an overwhelming sense of existential dread; his wife his dragging him to the Margaret Cho show at Viejas on Saturday.
6 a.m. A single tear rolled down Carlos’ cheek as Mat reported that 242 pounds of marijuana were seized from a truck at the
Mat giddily announced his plan to participate in the 9th annual lawn mower exchange by swapping his old gas-powered mower for a cordless, battery-powered one.
Speaking of going electric, sales of the hybrid Toyota Prius hit 1.28 million as of the end of April.
Mat replayed highlights of the interview with Mayor Sanders from yesterday, including why old men love hosing down driveways, Rilo Kiley, Steve Francis commericials, and, of course, the “F#%k you, Steve!” incident. The mayor delightedly accepted a bundle of “F#%k you, Steve!” shirts and an invitation to return on a segment entitled, “Mayor Sanders’ iPod.”
A caller, after verifying that
7 a.m. Every time you pollute, a polar bear is put in a perilous position.
Jimmy Eat World: AWESOME live, AWFUL interview. Mat tried talking about everything—from dancing to one of their songs at his wedding to Mexican food—to get any emotion out of Jim, but he was simply uninterested. At least he saved a lot of energy to rock out tomorrow night! A caller explained that Jim was just most likely just incredibly stoned. He said he’s been “that guy” before, and that he was probably just rifling through his pantry during the interview. OK, we’ll buy it.
Pop Trash: Drunks, more political blowhards, and guess who’s having a baby.
Mat mocked a morning show favorite: the Animal Planet show, “Sunrise Earth.”
8 a.m.
Beer for Breakfast! “…Did we do news?”
Mat rushed through news after excitedly triggering the theme song that echoes the sentiment of the entire morning show crew too early. “All I wanna do is drink beer for breakfast!”
Beer for Breakfast! (Finally.) Two gentlemen from Latis Imports stopped by to bring Mat,
Mat, a self-proclaimed wino and noted beer non-connoisseur, reviewed the Palm Amber Beer this morning. He said that it “tastes like Christmas; and not the ‘daddy drinks because you cry’ kind of Christmas.” He also noted that he can faintly taste the tears of the countrymen who bravely fought in the infamous Eighty Years’ War in This brewery, among many others, will be featured at the Citybeat Festival of Beers in
Mat, other than a belly full of beer, also got a brand new band name out of the interview. So listen for the upcoming release from the Acid Rock band, Mat Diablo and the Secret Yeast.
Hooptie Car Show! Bring your beat up, busted death-traps to Qualcomm tomorrow morning for the Hooptie Car Show at the 91X Morning Show live broadcast!
9 a.m. Jesse Taylor returned this week to discuss last night’s episode of The Ultimate Fighter on Spike. The quarter-finals are coming up, so watch for
If you can’t wait until then, see where he’ll be around town by clicking here!
What did we learn? Carlos learned that interviewing JEW isn’t worth it. Sammi the Intern learned that Acid Rock still exists. Mat learned that Secret Yeast is actually headlining X-Fest tomorrow night.
Don’t forget to tailgate with the 91X Morning Show tomorrow morning with plenty of food, beer and X-Fest tickets from 5:30-10!

11,000 Calories and Complaints from Carolla6 a.m. The description of the robber of a local Gamestop was a spot-on depiction of Carlos. Mat Diablo became even more suspicious of Carlos as he reported that the ‘unknown’ robber tied up the clerk, threw him in the back of the store and submitted him to the ‘Dark Act.’
Mahoney grumbled and cursed as Mat announced a proposed 17 percent tax raise on strip clubs and porn from 8-25 percent.
Rod Luck’s mug shot brought overwhelming joy to the morning show crew. See it for yourself by clicking here!
The 91X Morning Show will feature a Hooptie Car Show at the live broadcast from X-Fest Friday morning. If your car can make it to Qualcomm despite its lack of necessary parts, or in spite of a recent car fire, drive it on down for a chance to win big! Cars will be crowned for a multitude of categories, so if there is anything wrecked on or in your ride, bring it over.

7 a.m.
Rants & Raves: Carlos meandered over to Pita Pit the other day to satisfy some menacing munchies. He ordered a Chicken Caesar Pita, but was “mentally dominated” by the Pita Pit employee. She grabbed a completely different pita and just packed it full of random components that he doesn’t particularly like, and definitely didn’t order. Instead of saying anything and backing up the lunch-rush line, he proceeded to pay for the pita, and even ended up purchasing chips and a drink. $10 later, he had an armful of food he did not want, an empty wallet, and a broken spirit. Bullied and hungry, he ate what he was given.
Mat wondered why he, like Carlos, can never bring himself to send food back, no matter how awful it may be. Recently he supped at a seafood restaurant and ordered the $29 scallop entrée. They were rotten, rubbery, and tasted really fishy, but he didn’t make a peep.
Pop Trash: Nick Hogan sentenced to eight months, Lohan wants Brand, and Megan Fox is topless. Fraggle Rock will triumphantly return as a live action musical flick!
Mahoney, with his eternal can-do attitude, thinks he can effortlessly accomplish anything and everything the gang discusses. He snubbed the loser, Psyko, of the 11,000-calorie bet featured during “What’s on the Internet?” and said he could do it, “no problem.” It should be noted that all of the previous endeavors he’s embarked upon have resulted in an epic fail.
Mat spoke to the mastermind behind the bet— Gedimin, a co-worker of the ‘Dress Hiker,’ Psyko. Gedimin said Psyko tried to consume four jars of peanut butter and a gallon of melted
Tomorrow night at 6:30 p.m. join Gedimin and friends in the parking lot of
8 a.m. The 91X Morning Show prides itself on being two things—local and independent. Friday, a caller on Adam Carolla’s nationally-syndicated show asked why he can’t be heard in
9 a.m. Join the 91X Morning Show as they broadcast live from X-Fest Friday morning from 5:30a.m.-on. Free food from Roberto’s, free Starbucks, beer, the Hooptie Car Show, live music and X-Fest tickets!
Mahoney began planning his 11,000-calorie meal. He considered the easy route—an Awesome Blossom and a giant steak—but wants to man-up and eat three, 3500-calorie, massive pizzas from Papa John’s instead. Mat called him out as “all talk” in reference to all of his past shortcomings and told him he was like
Mat tried to find a world record for Rowley to break. His suggestions: Longest spoon session in a sleeping bag with
*Rowley’s not Asian…
Mahoney winced as Mat replaced ‘Pop Trash’ with the new song from The Cure. Mat shed a joyous tear for each note in the song.
Psyko, the ‘Dress Hiker’ called Mahoney to tell him he will fail at the 11,000-calorie challenge.
What did we learn? Carlos learned that he robbed a Gamestop. Mahoney learned that both Mat and Carlos will be shamed when he successfully eats himself out of house and home. -SS |

For the Love of Carlos, Stop Shaving5:30 a.m. Mat’s got jokes: “Rod Luck makes George Hamilton look like Powder.”
6 a.m. People of Mat made a humble request to the men (and folically-defunct women) of
Mat was delighted to hear that Rod Luck of KUSI punched his lady-friend in the mouth. He speculated that Luck sleeps under a Wendy’s heat lamp, and proceeded to make a multitude of jokes of that nature.
State? A party school? Unheard of. Apparently SDSU is worried that the recent drug bust could mar the student body’s reputation of impeccable behavior and subdued social habits.
The Padres have been slump-busted. You’re welcome,
AAMCO received a shout out on the Drunk Dial Line.

Mat and Bill Cosby does, Malcolm-Jamal Warner does not. Journey does, Nirvana does not. Paula Abdul does, Wilford Brimley does not.
A caller that knew Alex Trebek has a star, but Tony Danza does not, won tickets to X-Fest and passes to meet Offspring.
7 a.m. Since neither Mat nor
Speedracer: Grimm called it “two hours and fifteen minutes of incoherent computer animation.” He gave the flick 1 happy popcorn bucket out of a possible 5, noting that it really only deserves one spilled bucket of crushed popcorn with a Doc Martin mashing it into the sticky mess on the floor. What Happens in Vegas: “Another failure of a movie,” according to Grimm. The highlight is Cameron Diaz briefly in her underwear. 2 popcorn buckets. Maid of Honor: Grimm could not stress how much he hates Patrick Dempsey enough. Mat asked if it was at least a good date movie. Grimm responded with, “Good date movie!? No, unless you hate your date.” 0.5 of a popcorn bucket.
Pop Trash: Dennis Farina’s mustache does not give him authority to carry a weapon. Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson rumors. Some chick named ‘Poverty’ won Survivor.
8 a.m. SPECIAL GUEST! Andrew, of the X-Fest-playing band Ludo, joined Mat and
Mat asked Andrew if
Check out Ludo’s most recent album “You’re Awful, I Love You” before you see them perform at X-Fest this Friday!
QUESTION: Who would get his own star on a ‘San Diego Walk of Fame?’
Mat suggested Rod Luck (for the sheer power of his fists) and the Mt. Helix Sand Yeti.
Callers wanted to see a star for John Jon Pebsworth from Buck-O-Nine, Ron Burgandy, and Big Black. The winning call, whose prize was X-Fest tickets and passes to meet and greet Jimmy Eat World, was a bid for Carlos and his mom to share a star with “roommates forever” etched into it. Mat would add another star adjacent to it for the “Dark Act.”
9 a.m. Mat said that Carlos’ mustache makes him look like an artist’s rendering of a pedophile for a Police Department.
Big News! Mayor Jerry Sanders will be in the studio Wednesday! The mayor’s office contacted Mat and told them Sanders was interested in stopping by after he heard they wanted to bring him in. Mat plans to ask hard-hitting questions such as, “Do you like our ‘F#%k you, Steve!’ shirts?” and, “Do you want one?”
Mat was outraged when Carlos said his ‘roommate’ is not coming to his birthday celebration because, as we all know, she is responsible for his birthday in the first place.
Mat went out of town this weekend, only to be hounded with drunk dials various 91X staff members.
Mat also learned that the legend of the Mahanimal is true: if you leave a bottle of wine and a glass on the kitchen counter,
What did we learn? Carlos learned that his ‘roommate’ is going to have a star on the San Diego Walk of Fame. Mat learned the Rod Luck/Powder joke from the beginning of the show.

Sonata Whole Lot Goin' On6 a.m.
Mat reported that the DEA has been embellishing accounts of arrests in the SDSU drug sting by including students that have been arrested in routine police operations from January until early March. Only 33 students have been arrested as a result of the bust.
A few kids in Texas were arrested for disturbing a grave and making a bong out of the corpse’s skull. That’s what I call a pot head. (Har har.)
In honor of Friar Friday, Mat re-aired the Jake Peavy interview from late in the show yesterday. The interview is expected to serve as the slump-buster that will bring the Padres out of the recent series of letdowns. Peavy starts tonight against the

What’s on the Internet? http://baconsalt.com/
Mat, looking to rid himself of the gas-guzzling 4-runner he currently operates, asked his dad, an avid Consumer Report reader and fan, for automotive advice. Dad Diablo told ‘Matty’ to seriously consider buying the stunning, sensible car known as the Sonata. Mat, unable to explain to his father why that purchase would be inexcusable, toyed with the idea of buying a newer, better, and in-all-ways-superior-to-
7 a.m. “So can we drink now?”
The great debate over whether Mat’s hair is a certified faux-hawk (“Is it... or Isn’t it?”) continues.
Mat interviewed Kenny Mayne of ESPN about his book, UNLV, the Golden Age of Sportscenter, plans for the Padres, and his eccentric Cha-Cha.
Pop Trash Earth, Wind, & Fire edition: Mahoney says “wassup” to Liv Tyler. Matthew McConaughey as Captain America? Grand Theft Auto made some money.
8 a.m. Ruggy came in to help everyone get their Yelp on!
Drunk and hungry? Ruggy to the rescue. Get a free side of hookers with your Huevos Rancheros at Rudford’s on
Get sauced with your mom at Lei Lounge in
Music: DJ Sultan at Club 2028, Buddy Akai at Beauty Bar, and Grand Ole Party at the Ken Club.
This week’s ‘Get your Yelp on’ was brought to you by Lorenzo Lamas and The Obscure Reference Fund.
QUESTION: What is the best drunk food? Mat said Horchata.
Callers included classics like Jack in the Box tacos, anything at Las Cuatro Milpa, and 3 a.m. Denny’s, as well as the less popular Scrapple (?) The girl who won tickets to X-Fest admitted to her addiction to Carne Asada burritos despite the aftermath when they yield less-than-desirable outcomes. Literal outcomes…that come out…
9 a.m. Mat saluted Mother’s Day with a salute to Carlos’ mom.
Drunk Dial Line! Fatty almost threw up and asked Steve West to hook him up with Barbara Walters. “If you guys are on air who’s manning the Bro Factory.” A Hyundai enthusiast phoned in a bong rip and questioned Mat about his pompadour and wine-drinking habits. Someone took the time to put a phone up to what could only be the snores of the Mt. Helix Sand Yeti to let know everyone know the beast is at bay in a drunken slumber… for now.
Drink! Drink! Drink! Call! Call! Call! (858) 560-5911
What did we learn? Carlos learned that Mat learned Lorenzo Lamas.

Mahappy's Ultimate Man-Crush Day5:30 a.m. Mat Diablo started drinking at 5:45 a.m. Classy.
6 a.m. Mat was pleased to report on the mediocre midday police pursuit of a man in a blue Sebring, and thanked him for providing the most car-chase-induced excitement since ‘the tank incident.’
The interview from yesterday, in which Mat Diablo and d#%ks” to Dane Cook, re-aired (in case you missed it.)

7 a.m. After he found out that the undercover DEA officers involved with the SDSU drug bust never even had to attend class to crack the system, Mat proclaimed that it is easier to get drugs at SDSU than get accepted.
According to Mat berated him, noting that he and Carlos, ‘the two brown guys,’ are offended by the severity of Then everyone heard Mat rap again.
Pop Trash: CSI drug bust, Hasselbeck is the only attractive Republican woman in the world, and Barbara Walters says “F#%k you, Star!”
Beer for breakfast! “Karl Strauss in the house” edition
Want to be a Brew Master someday? (Who doesn’t!?) Paul advised aspiring brew bros to check out the Fermentation Sciences program at UC Davis.
Head over to Karl Strauss’ Beach to Brewery Music and Beer Fest this Saturday in
8 a.m. Mat and Carlos said they love the new (happy)
A new contender for Mat’s rally car has arisen. Sammi the Intern’s light blue 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme has consistently let her down and its time for payback. Mat described Sammi the Intern to the listeners, and the car he pictured her driving. Then, a few mornings ago, he saw (and heard) her pull up and asked if she had driven straight off the set of Sanford & Son. He was intrigued enough to consider demolishing the car.
SPECIAL GUEST! Jake Peavy called in from Peavy described the team dynamic during these past few weeks as a “light-hearted camaraderie” in the midst of the losing streak. He said they all try to remember to have as much fun as they can, and stay loose and relax because that is what baseball is all about!
9 a.m. ANOTHER SPECIAL GUEST! Jesse has already made it to the quarter-finals after winning two fights early in the season. He joined Mat and Jesse hinted at an upcoming brawl in the testosterone-laden house that he referred to as a “possible WWIII.” He added that in a house lush with booze and full of fighters with no real outlets to the goings-on of the world (TV, Internet, radio, etc.), some “s#%t’s bound to go down.”
Mat almost ruined the jovial radiance emanating from “Iamactuallyinagoodmood,”
Pop Trash: Mike Epps punches Paternity in the face.
What did we learn? Carlos learned that all it takes is beer and a representative from Karl Strauss to make Sammi the intern learned that Mat needs to buy her car and destroy it. Mat learned that the answer is not always mustache when it comes to -SS |
