An Emotional Coming-of-Age Story
5:30 a.m.
Happy Dr. Seuss Day!
Mat played audio of a drunken Preston stumbling into the studio during Loudspeaker last night and yelling around about accordians and the Chargers.
6 a.m.
SPECIAL GUEST!
Jason Segel called in to talk about his new movie with Paul Rudd called “I Love You, Man.”
Mat asked if he had come on to talk about the new Blu Ray release of Slackers.
“There’s a Blu Ray release of Slackers? Wow, that is an incredible waste of technology.”
Mat, of course, was joking. Although that movie is definitely worthy of numerous re-releases.
“I Love You, Man” will be Segel’s third movie with Paul Rudd (”Knocked Up” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”).
Mat asked if, in the wake of other undeservedly cancelled shows becoming movies, there may be a “Freaks and Geeks” reprise.
Segel doubted it as not more than three months after the show was cancelled, the main actor morphed from a “geek” into a 6′4, good looking dude.
”I Love You, Man” is about a challenge that many adult men face. That is, going out into the world and trying to make male friends (without crossing the homoerotic line.)
And for those who saw “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” there is no full frontal male nudity in this flick.
Check it out on March 23!
What’s on the Internet? http://www.nuddleblanket.com/
Included:
John McCain checks in; pants filled with vomit at 3 or 9 a.m.; the accidental mushroom ballad; Mexican wakeup call; VW Gas Smell Rodeo; Carlos is the Octodad; furry sex guitar riff; shut the f*** up, Sammi; did the Chargers win?; Jack FM is kicking our asses; excitement about the 91X van on the freeway; traffic song; a lady that offers her left boob for No Doubt tickets; and Dr. Dre + white people = Do a barrel roll.
7 a.m.
Carlos’ dad requested to be everybody’s friend on Facebook. Everyone, that is, except for Carlos’ sister.
This caused an as-of-yet unresolved riff in the Montoya family as the two kids battle over their father’s Facebook love.
Mike MacDonald, of Doobie Brothers fame, experienced similarly dismal consequences as a result of using Facebook when his mom saw a picture of the record-breaking giraffe tattoo he got on Man Date XII and cut him out of her will.
Mat’s brother’s girlfriend (’s dog’s grandpa’s uncle’s fish’s whatever) broke up with him over a possibly incriminating comment on his Myspace from a girl that happened to be in the same city he was concurrently on tour in.
This conversation stemmed from a story about a woman,Kim Swann, who was fired for updating her Facebook status to, “Bored at work.”
Mitch called in to ask if he should be worried that his girlfriend is talking to all her old flames on Facebook. Sammi and Mat convinced him that yes, F*ckbook is a gang-bang networking site, but there is no need to be worried if he makes one too.
Doug found out that his girlfriend was cheating on him with a bald guy with a goatee while he was away on deployment.
Paul, however, was the only person who stuck up for Myspace, his personal matchmaker. He met wife on Myspace. Awwwwwwww, we’ll end on a good note.
Pop Trash: Dr. Seuss, P. Diddy brings Chris Brown and Rihanna, Republicans love porn, Ed McMahon is in the hospital, Snoop Dogg is now Islamic, and Jo Bros movie has disappointing ratings.
8 a.m.
Lifetime Movie of the Week? Or Musical?
Mat read five plot synopses of “emotional coming-of-age stories.” Shannon knew enough about terrible made-for-TV movies and cheesy musicals to differentiate between the two and win tickets to RENT!
9 a.m.
MORE DRUNK DIAL LINE!
Added:
Bumblebee Tuna Song; an Interior Crocadile Alligator from TJ; a messy burp interrupts a call; and baked bongos.
More Pop Trash: Xzibit meme.
WHAT DID YOU LEARN TODAY?
Everyone thanked Preston for his drunken gibberish last night.
Mat and Carlos argued about the Nuddle again.
