Episode 32.1 - Gordon & Chico Meet The Beast
January 7

LISTEN ONLINE!

Jason: LOL
Chico: WIN. Welcome back to WLTI. Thanks for being a part of our week, and allowing us to be a part of yours. We'll ask the Congress in question their opinions on "The Taste" later on in the show. But right now, let's get into some Resolutions.
Gordon: Chico, you go first.

How about some advice for The Biggest Loser.

Gordon: Go back to what made the show run - which is health tips - instead of the drama and the really bad contestants. And hoping for a new casting department.
Chico: You pretty much nailed it. As we keep saying... IT'S THE GAME, STUPID.
Jason: Yes. Health first, game 2nd, drama a DISTANT third.
Gordon: We hope. next one...

Randy Jackson. No more ABDC, so now he can focus on Idol. Any advice?

Jason: Don't be afraid to say something mean. Be honest.
Chico: Just be evil.
Jason: Don't give in to the self-esteem movement.
Chico: Make Simon proud of you.
Jason: NO. Not Evil...HONEST
Gordon: Teach the new judges how to be accurate and not happy happy sunshine.
Jason: win.
Chico: Right on.
Gordon: Part of what makes Idol work are the judges. Simon Cowell brought it into the forefront, as did Howard Stern, etc.
Chico: Next...

While we're on musical chairs, any advice for Shakira and Usher?

Jason: See above & don't make the show about you!
Gordon: I'm fine with that, but let me add this: Play the game to win, not to be nice. Also - you're mentoring the kids. Be a mentor and not a fan.
Chico: You're just as much a player as they are. See Adam and Blake for examples.
Gordon: Next one...

We praised Wayne Brady a lot on the live show. Lost in the shuffle was Drew Carey. who was also exemplary this year. How do we make him better.

Jason: Continue to make the show less about you and more about the contestants. Your balance has been exemplary. Keep doing that.
Chico: Well, we've covered his improv skills, his need to compose himself, and his ability to be incredibly affable. So yes, he remembers that the contestants are the stars. He keeps doing that, he's golden.
Gordon: I like that. I'd also like to see more interplay with him and George Gray.
Jason: Yes.
Chico: love it. Next up.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire... needs help

Jason: Go back to the original game, with no auditions and a phone game(I am sorry, the show isn't the same)
Gordon: You cant really do a phone game on a weekday syndie, but you could put in more contestants, put back the money tree and less celebrities.
Chico: Here's the simple fix. Back to basics. Ten players. Fifteen questions...
Jason: The show needs to go back to basics
Gordon: That it does. Last one...

The Bachelor's Sean Lowe. You knew it was coming. Happy new years.

Chico: Seal the deal.
Jason: See above
Gordon: You know the Phone line you created with Chris Harrison? Create something else on it and being an entrepreneur. You have a much better chance making money on the phone idea and doing that than finding love.
Chico: Boom
Jason: WIN
Gordon: And we'll hit the potty after this break.

(Brought to you by The Smash-elor. A Broadway producer is looking for his leading lady. He'll date her, he'll cast her, and jsut when you think she's reached the pinnacle of theatrical excellence, he'll be dumped for the next big thing. IT'S BROADWAY BABY!)

Jason: Sounds Plausible to me :)
Chico: perfectly believable. Another believable thing, coming back from commercial, and THEN going to the bathroom.
Gordon: I can believe that. Jason, if you please...
Jason: Hamsters....please :)

(Hamsters roll in SuperToilet 6000)

Jason: That is because it's time for Round 2 of....
Chico: PUSH! OR! FLUSH!

Chico: Eight more for you to peruse.
Jason: Start it up :)
Chico: First up...

Jason: This one screams underground surprise hit. With Michael Davies and Mark Burnett in there...this will not fail. PUSH
Chico: Underground indeed. PUSH.

Chico: Next...

CHICO GORDON JASON FLUSH

Chico: (bells) And that's Push or Flush. We'll round it out next week, but first, watch this, please.

(Brought to you by Drunken Frat Parties. Drunk pledges find their way across a room and look for love. Guaranteed to get more matches than The Bachelor.)

Chico: This would be a legitimate premise. Notice I didn't say GOOD. =p
Jason: LOL
Chico: Let's get to the Speed Round! How long does Ashok last?
Jason: 4-5 games total
Chico: I say three. Though he is the real.
Gordon: I'll go 4. The Biggest Loser: Are kids going to help the show?
Jason: No...the "abuse" allegations are going to scar the show.
Chico: This isn't gonna help. And let's see. Biggest Loser is on up against HIMYM, and they're about due for the season turning twist.
Gordon: The kids won't. Jillian could though. Predictions on Usher and Shakira.
Jason: They will do well. It will be a fresh twist on the format.
Chico: They'll work.
Gordon: They could. What about Mariah and Nicki Minaj on American Idol?
Chico: They can't work anywhere.
Jason: (shudder)
Gordon: American Train Wreck. Any email?
Chico: Why yes! This is from Ron Azbell. Thanks, Ron!


VIEWER MAIL

Ron Azbell
I was a contestant on the Wheel on 4/28/06. My VHS tape of the event is in poor shape and I was hopeful of getting it on a disc. My tapes quality is poor. Do you know of any source that might have this show? For purchase or downloading?

Jason: Well now....:)
Chico: Jason?
Jason: KLAUSS MAIL.
Chico: So we have a couple of suggestions here. One, you can go on YouTube it and see if someone put it up. Two: Google game show trading post. There are a LOT of collectors out there. Throw out a request and see who'll help you out.
Jason: And a lot of them will.
Chico: Here are a few good ones... members2.boardhost.com/gameshowtrading and www.angelfire.com/dc/gstradepost (hosted by our friend DC Lundberg).
Gordon: Thanks for the email. Anything else?
Chico: Nope.
Gordon: If someone has email, where does it go?
Chico: If you want to send us some, you can look for us on Facebook, on Twitter, on iTunes, and of course wlti@gameshownewsnet.com
Gordon: Thanks. That ends the show. Special thanks to Jason Block for joining us.
Jason: Always fun and Happy New Year to everyone reading!
Chico: Next week, we finish up push or flush and get some more of that good stuff. Until then, for everyone here at Game Show Newsnet, he's Gordon. I'm Chico. The show is We Love to Interrupt. Game over and Spread the love.
