What's good? Well, we've got a number of things that are, on today's program and few that aren't. Most notably... WE ARE ALL BACK!!! It's been a few months since all five of us hosted the show. Schedules got jumbled, trips were taken; there was always someone missing. But now, with Jabari's return, the circle is once again complete.
First, the inspiration for this week's title, a viral video on YouTube called, BEAUTY AND THE BEAT. It's a rather urban spin on, "Little Town," the very first song sung in Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Once again we find Belle as a bit of an outcast amongst her neighbors in the sleepy little projects. She makes her way through town as everyone she passes greets her with, "what's good?" This video is certainly good. You can check it out in the Show Links below.
It's also good that scientists are keeping an eye on how fast this rock we live on is spinning. Turns out, it's actually slowing down. As a result, on Saturday they added one-second to the Universal Coordinated Time. They do this so that us normal folks' clocks stay in tune with atomic clocks and we're not eating lunch at midnight in 100,000 years.
Take a look at the image above. This is a charcoal filter that adheres to your underwear and filters out the odor of your farts. An E-Mail from a listener brought us this gem. We've run across similar products on the show in the past. But these set us off on a hypothetical of where the pads might come in handy best. We think at about 37,000 feet.
What's NOT good? A new Snoop Dogg movie coming out on DVD tomorrow called, MAC & DEVIN GO TO HIGH SCHOOL. Once you hear the plot, we think you'll agree. Snoop's a little old to be playing a high school student. Maybe that's the joke? Obviously the movie isn't taking anything seriously. Just wait until you hear the name of the school.
Something else not too good, Foie Gras — fattened goose or duck liver. Not only is this delicacy cruel to the birds, it's now banned in California for that very reason. Food advocates are going to try and get the law repealed. But as of Sunday, it's illegal for restaurants in Cali to serve it. I'm going to go on record and say that internal organs of animals should not be eaten. It's gross. Maybe that's a bit hypocritical of my to say while jamming a fat hamburger down my gullet, but that's as far as my meat consumption goes. I'm boring that way. Foie Gras doesn't even look appetizing. It looks gross and slimy. Do we really need to eat this anyway? And who likes liver? Honestly? That's our We Ask You Poll this week. Be sure and cast your vote!
What else is good? We're once again on Jenkem Watch. A flood of fecal related news has been pinched off onto our radar and it's our doody to bring it to you. There's quite a mystery to solve at a Dollar General store in Lufkin, Texas where someone pooped on the storeroom floor despite readily available restrooms. There was so much of it, employees believed a large animal had gotten trapped in the room and did the deed. Security camera footage releaved that wasn't the case. You'll hear who done it!
This week is Be Nice To New Jersey week. It's hard not to make a joke about them with stories like this next one. A 72 year-old man was arrested after threatening his neighbor with a gun because the neighbor farted so loud he heard it and smelt it through his apartment wall! The real question here is what in the hell has that guy been eating?
We wipe up Jenkem Watch with a principal in Canada being fired after he failed to stop a shitty prank played on two of his students. While on a canoe trip, an adult chaperone convinced a boy and girl to eat moose poop. How'd he do that? You'll have to tune-in to find out.
It wasn't intentional, but this week's hour skews heavily toward flatulence and shit. Perhaps it's what's good? Who knows, maybe it'll land us a sponsorship with a gas relief or constipation medication.
