Episode 23.10 - Spring Forward
March 15

Jason: That could take a while.
Gordon: Does Chad Sesentanueve get to sing also?
Chico: No, sir.
Gordon: Aw.
Chico: Not even "Just a Friend" by Biz Markie. Welcome back to WLTI. Game show news sprinkled with wry humor. VERY wry.
Jason: Dry too.
Chico: We're going to keep the information coming at you with... my papaya hat.
Gordon: Here it is. just washed.
Chico: Thank you.
Jason: Looks good.
Chico: And now, the Doctor... is in.
Gordon: We get mail all the time here. We love it. Jason has the first letter.
Jason: yeah I do.

Chico: Well, Alison... It's probably not my place to say, but the truth is... you were good... she was better. The best thing you can do for yourself is be happy for the new blood and move on to the next big adventure. And because the game show is an ever-growing monster, that new adventure could be right around the corner.
Gordon: You may also want to tell her to grow an emoticon.
Chico: Yeah, that would help, too. Tiffany's got smiles for days. And acting chops. She likes to have fun.
Gordon: She looks like she's having fun. Allison was just standing there.
Chico: There you go. next letter?
Gordon: Next one...

Chico: 1) Make sure you get your shots up to date... 2) Make sure the nasty old man doesn't have a bit of strange on the side...3) Remember... your best bet is to cozy up to the dirty old man... ask... no, BEG... to be his friend. Usually friendship is the inroad to victory. Hugs, Dr. Chico.
Jason: Usually. But Joan Rivers was a stone cold b***h and won the whole thing.
Gordon: She was also 75,000 year old.
Chico: Her face was only 30, though. :-) Heeeeeey. :-)
Jason: I have another letter that is.
Chico: Is it as old as Joan's face?
Jason: No.
Chico: Okay, go on.

Chico: Well, GUY... Can I call you GUY? It's always a good thing to see new talent. Especially if said talent is a result of ANOTHER game show... The best hosts in history love to act in the now and are accustomed to being out of their element. If you can do both of those things, you'll be in the industry for a lot more than a minute. Now cook my dinner :-)
Gordon: Can you cook for Chico in 60 seconds, Jay?
Jason: 60 seconds...no.
Chico: I should hope not. Gordon, next?
Gordon: I have the next letter.

Chico: Honestly... -3. You can't sing and you look horrible in a two-piece. In fact.. *burns letter* I'd burn my mind's eye, but I need that for later. Next?
Gordon: What if it was Chris Golightly writing you that letter?
Chico: ... I'd do the same thing but I'd make sure his contract was out. Next?
Gordon: Jermaine Sellers?
Chico: Jermaine... I'd do the same thing. Next?
Gordon: Mario Vazquez?
Chico: Same thing. NEXT!
Gordon: Don't you believe in giving people second chance, Dr. Chico?
Chico: they had their second chances. It's hardly my fault they messed it up. NEXT!!!
Gordon: I think Jason has the next letter
Jason: Yes I do.

Chico: Hey Big Mike. Big fan. If you want my opinion... Keep growing... keep getting better... Keep expanding your horizons. And by your horizons, I mean you fanbase. Show them that you can sing anything. Then you're in with a chance. But it's all about fanbase. You need to build, build, build. If you can outsing in yours, good. If you can outsing in others... BETTER.
Gordon: First define who you are, then build your base. He did a good job with step #1.
Chico: Right now, though... it's his to lose. But he has to be who he is... then go after the others.
Gordon: Ready for the last one, Doc?
Chico: Ready.
Gordon: Here we go.

Chico: ... Gordon, throw it to break. I'll be right back.
Gordon: You leaving to get her email address?
Chico: Yes. Among other things.
Gordon: Condoms are on the top shelf. Deskanktifier is on the of the toilet.
Chico: *leaves for a bit*
Gordon: So Jason, see any good movies this week?
Jason: I have been working, so no.
Gordon: Is the law firm as they show it on TV?
Jason: Not that type of office no.
Chico: *comes back with a towel and a box* Gordon... I'm back with a present. Vienna's G-strang.
Jason: You bad boy.
Chico: More bad ideas for presents are on sale after the break.
Gordon: (takes G-String. Attaches it to guitar). I'm glad you were so thoughtful, The last one broke.
Chico: Hey, clean that first.

(Brought to you by Top Fast Food Counter Worker. How well can you make a $5 sub? Could you get everyone's orders right for $100,000? If so, plase come down and replace the guy at my local chain. He sucks.)

Chico: Heh.
Jason: That bad, huh?
Gordon: If I order a tuna melt with American cheese, don't come back and give me a cold tuna sandwich with onions.
Chico: Wow.
Gordon: But if you want to order games and fun, here's the place to go. Welcome to Are You Buying What We're Selling? Now these are all real game show items that you can get at Amazon.com. You tell me if you are buying. Ready?
Chico: Right on.
Gordon: First item:



Gordon: This is Jeopardy Plug and Play by Jakks. Are you buying?
Chico: That looks sexy. I'll buy.
Jason: yes. oh yes. Big time.
Gordon: I'd buy too. I need to get the brain power going to I can beat Chico at Jeopardy.
Chico: Good luck with that :-)
Gordon: Next item:



Gordon: 'My Best Days', by Danny Gokey. 65,000 people bought it. Will you?
Jason: Yes again. I liked what I heard from the album.
Chico: I'd buy a few tracks, but not the whole thing. I've been burned by "Whole Album Syndrome".
Gordon: I'm not going to buy it. Country isn't my thing. I'll wait for the dance remixes and get it there.
Chico: There you go.
Gordon: Next item:



Gordon: 'Now Eat This' by Rocco DiSpirito. Ways to make your own healthier alternatives to restaurant foods.
Jason: This is a maybe. This a glutted market. And I am not a DeSpirito fan
Chico: Does it have an alternative for the fried mac'n'cheese?
Gordon: Sure does
Chico: I'm sold.
Gordon: I looked through this book. It looks sweet. I'd definitely pick t up and try it out. Next item:



Gordon: This is the Project Runway fashion Game.
Jason: There is a whole toy line which I saw at FAO Schwarz
Chico: You know what this reminds me of? Fashion Plates. The whole mix-and-match plastic relief things... If I had a kid who was into that sort of thing... I would.
Gordon: Geared towards the kiddie set, it helps young kids learn the basics to be fashion designers.
Jason: If I had kids who were interested...yes in a big way.
Gordon: Absolutely. Fostering kids imaginations is always the way to go. Next item:



Gordon: It's your own Talking Donald Trump!
Chico: Umm... no.
Jason: Heck no.
Gordon: No, but it would be funny. Finally, and Chico, I found this one just for you.
Chico: Oh no...
Gordon: You'll LOVE it.



Chico: I LOVE this!
Jason: Is that a book, bumper sticker?
Gordon: The 'Protect the Sanctity of Reality Marriages' Bumper Sticker!
Jason: ROFL That is so you CHICO
Gordon: I'm buying one for me AND one for Chico.
Chico: Nice.
Gordon: So as Chico is fawning over his new bumper sticker, we go to break.
Chico: Not to Amazon.com, but to the Speed round.
Gordon: I have to find a 'Let's Go To Break' bumper sticker somewhere...

(Brought to you by 60 Minutes to Win It. Players have an hour to reenact stories ripped from the headlines and celebrity interviews with engaging figures of the day.... and Jason Block as Andy Rooney)

Jason: I am not that GRUMPY.
Gordon: I figured you'd make him Meredith Vieira
Chico: Dude, it's 2010. He'd at least be Lesley Stahl. I on the other hand... would be Anderson Cooper :-)
Gordon: Lesley is fine with me. Speed Round starts...now! Idol: Who is the Top 12 First Loser?
Jason: I say Lacey Brown
Chico: I think the universe rights itself and Katie Stevens gets sent packing.
Gordon: I'll say Lacey Brown.
Chico: With Paige and Tim rounding out your first bottom three.
Gordon: Amazing Race: Does Jeff and Jordan survive their penalty?
Chico: I think so
Jason: No.
Gordon: I think they will. Too many stupid teams left. One of them will screw up. Jeopardy: How will the new champ do?
Chico: I think four, maybe five games.
Jason: Around that is right.
Gordon: 3-4 sounds right, but I don't see him ending the week as the champ. What will you be watching?
Chico: Watch this! The Ultimate fighter. Not That: The first round of March Madness. I see no reason to. Neither does Block.
Gordon: I won't be watching The Survivor Recap, since we don't learn anything new about the game.
Jason: Watch this: Minute to Win It...even though it may stink :)
Gordon: What emails do we have this week?
Chico: Nothing here. you?
Gordon: I got nothing. No stat boy. But if they want to send email, where does it go?
Chico: It goes to WLTI@gameshownewsnet.com. Or you can find us on Facebook, MySpace, YouTube... Big thanks to Agent Josh and Jason Block for hanging out with us today.
Jason: Much thanks to you.
Chico: Next week, we're gearing up for the Solitary season (series?) finale. Until then, for Gordon and everyone at GSNN, I'm Chico Alexander. Game over... and spread the love! :-)
Jason: SPREAD THE LOVE
