Episode 17.20
May 12
Gordon: This is Gordon Pepper and...who ordered the balut?
Chico: Right here.
Jason: It's to early for 6 month old unhatched duck, no?
Chico: Just tap it... snap it... and shoot it down. *Does so*
Gordon: Yummy!
Chico: And one Deal or No Deal player can say they've had a taste. That and
more, as from Somewhere In America, the Happy Mother's Day edition of WLTI...
is... ON!
Jason: Yay!
Chico: Chico Alexander with you on this morning... alongside Gordon
and Jason...
Gordon: We'll get to feeling ducky later on in the show, but first, we get to
someone who isn't feeling as ducky - Jason Castro
Chico: He... uh... the others didn't beat him so much as he beat
himself.
Jason: You know, I saw that performance....and that was THE BIGGEST
CRASH AND BURN in Idol History...in My opinion anyway.
Chico: You'd be rather accurate. You know you're done for if Simon says "I'd
pack your
suitcase."
Chico: The last time that happened... Leah Labelle in season 3.
Jason: That's not necessarily true. He has said you should go home tonight and
they haven't. If Jason had even a semi decent performance...we may be talking
about David Cook going home.
Gordon: I'm going to disagree with both of you on a few points.
Chico: Okay.
Jason: Shoot.
Gordon: #1. That is not the biggest crash and burn in Idol history. That
still goes to Diana Degarmo, who forgets her lyrics in the American Idol finals
against Fantasia Barino.
Chico: I sit corrected.
Jason: Me too. Whoops.
Gordon: I'll go with second biggest
Chico: I can dig that.
Gordon: #2. And I'll agree with Jason on this - you're not necessarily done
for if Simon says 'I'd pack those suitcases'. A number of times, the voters have
come in to save the person in peril - most notably and most recently the
Sanjaya'd one last season.
Chico: So explain the last ouster. Outside of it blew up in his face
Gordon: This is actually interesting. This is the first time that I've seen
in recent memory that someone has told a publication that they want to leave
the show.
Chico: Whoa. Hello.
Gordon: Said publication - Entertainment Weekly. People have also claimed
that he mouthed the words 'Don't Vote' when the numbers came up for people to
vote. Now if he's telling the person to not vote, it won't matter how badly they
perform - the fervor of the fan base won't be there.
Jason: He also said it on "Idol Extra" on DirecTV - as well. He also said, "I
don't understand how I lasted this long."
Chico: All of a sudden, his crash and burn makes that much more sense. Either
that or he was on the stuff again.
Gordon: Or both. So a combination of that = bye bye.
Chico: Now who does this benefit the most? Because, you know, there are two more
pop/rockers. Who gets Jason's numbers, if anyone? Is it even possible that those
numbers will end up split, not
giving EITHER an advantage? And what about... Syesha?
Gordon: Well for starters, I think the vote goes directly to the same kiddie
that the screaming prepubescents vote for - David Archuleta
Jason: Exactly.
Gordon: I think the elimination of Castro means you can book David's ticket to
the finals
Chico: David had his ticket three weeks ago.
Gordon: But here's the interesting thing. David Cook has a rock base. Syesha has
an R and B base. Mr. Cook may be the better singer, but Syesha has the stronger
fan base - and she's been coming strong as of late.
Jason: And when you survive being in the bottom 6 times over the course of the top 12, that has to amount to something.
Chico: Plus, if I may add...history favors Syesha over Cook. Some facts in the
form... of a big board..
History Never Idols
1) Five of six winners from the
South...
2) R&B trumps all
3) Rock loses
4) Proficiency is key.
5)
|
Chico: This one's called "History Never Idols"
Jason: Nice title.
Chico: Thank you. Some facts to consider about the last six winners of Idol. 1)
Five of the six winners have come from the South. Jordin being the lone holdout.
Where's Syesha from again?
Gordon: I'm going to guess The South
Jason: Yes.
Chico: South Florida, actually. About as far south as you can go.
Jason: Number 2....
Chico: Number of winners with R&B background... 4. Number of winners with rock
background... 0.
Gordon: #3. Rock finishes in 4th or 3rd. Only Bo Bice got as far as second
Chico: So there you go then.
Jason: Until this year, my friends. If I may explain my theory.
Gordon: Is this the same theory here that has you cursing out the American
Public for
costing you a sushi dinner this season?
Jason: Yes that one :) And even with Syesha performing lights out over the past
three
weeks....
Gordon: Just checking. Both David's have had forgettable performances, including
when David Cook had a brutal inspiration week and when Archuleta forgot his lyrics in the Round of 12
.
Jason: Even so....They both have MASSIVE fan bases.
Gordon: We only know who's been in the bottom 3, not 4, 5, etc.
Jason: Syesha's just not that strong.
Chico: True.
Jason: I just don't see her surviving this week...that is not withstanding
performances...or the fact that anyone of these three can and should win Idol.
Gordon: I'm going to disagree here a little. According to Ryan, the Top 3
voters were divided by a million votes. Which means that any of them can be at
the bottom next week.
Chico: That is to say 1 million votes separated first and third.
Gordon: With 51 million votes cast, that's not a lot of separation. So I think
we all agree that Syesha looks like she's the next to go - BUT - if Syesha gets
in due to the power or R & B and David Cook or David Archuleta gets knocked out
instead, it's not going to be a huge shock.
Jason: Agreed.
Chico: Next round is the Wheel of Death, named after the round of
Say What Karaoke where players have little to no control over what they sing. It
tests vocal technique rather than performance. and as the name implies, such
testing will result in someone's death. Bringing me to #4, this round tends to go to the most
proficient singers, not necessarily the most popular ones.
Jason: And for those who have never seen it before...if it holds form as
per past seasons it runs like this. 1) Judges Choice. 2) Clive's Choice 3)
Singer's Choice
Chico: Unless Clive isn't there this week, yeah, something like that. But since
his company signs the winner eventually, well.. you
kinda half expect him.
Jason: And if you are the man who can get Bruce Springsteen to use a
song...the man has juice.
Chico: So whoever can achieve the balance between singing the song
and telling the story will join Archuleta at Nokia. Cook sings the song. Syesha tells the story. Or at least that's how it
USUALLY went so far. The times when she just sang it to sing it, audience called
her on it and she was in the bottom.
Gordon: I think it could go either way. That's what makes this year fun.
Chico: Because it's so close.
Jason: It is. And this week is very important.
Chico: No matter who gets kicked off, someone's going to be pissed off.
Gordon: Dont forget. If your favorite has been voted off, it's always a fix.
Jason: Oh yeah. We haven't heard it yet. But we will.
Chico: Yeah, it's a fix. My favorite got robbed. I didn't vote any, but hey, I
was rather vocal. Shut up and text. Something like that, G?
Gordon: Something like that - and I bet a bunch of the people who text are
college students.
Chico: Not 15 of them, who are in Madison competing for a title. :-) And a
little cash money. And a shot at a quarter mill later on at the big boy table.
Jason: And we saw some good players this week.
Chico: But first, let's take a look at this week's action. It seems
to me at least, that this week wasn't about a BIG winner, as much as it was
about people using common sense.
Chico: Betting big when they had to...Betting just so when they didn't have
to...
Gordon: And conversely, you saw people who bet big when they DIDN'T have to,
which lead to people eliminating themselves from Wild Card consideration
Jason: You mean the girl from Marquette who bet it all on Monday?
Chico: Shyup. So say I'm up about 6900. That's for you, G :-) My opponent has
about $10,000. My main strategy is to MATCH that total at least.
Gordon: If you're at $6,900, you have to go for it and bet it all.
Chico: Right
Gordon: Because $10,000 is probably not good enough to get a Wild Card
spot. But on at least 2 occasions, you saw people at $16,000+ making huge bets
on Final Jeopardy. I was scratching my head at those. If you're at $16,069, then
you don't have to bet the wad. but on Friday, that happened.
Chico: Someone bet the wad when they didn't?
Gordon: Check out Wednesday's and Friday's show. Dara bet all of her $11,900 and
eliminated herself.
Chico: On Friday, Than has $18,000, is wrong and bets... $13,000 of it,
eliminating himself from the competition as well. No, Than, that's a Bad, Than!
If you lead with some $18,000, you don't bet it all right
away. This is only a prelim week. Your priority one is to just get to next week.
Jason: Which is going to be fun...you got the matchups?
Chico: Let's play Who Wins It? I need another board.
J! College '08. Who Wins It?
- Monday: Split Panel
- Tuesday: Danny
- Wednesday: Joey
- Overall: JOEY
|
Chico: Monday's Game: Gabrielle vs. Tara vs. Danielle. Gabrielle won Monday's
game. Tara won Friday's game. Danielle won Tuesday's game. I'm going with
Danielle, who won outright on her own merits. The other two won because their main competition slipped up
somewhere.
Jason: I am going with Gabrielle...Gabrielle was the one with the ballsy
$22,200 bet. She is good. She has that X factor.
Gordon: I thought Tara was very very good. I 'l go with her
Chico: Wow. This is a first. Split panel. Let's go to game #2. James vs. Danny
vs. Andrew. James was a wild card in Danielle's game. Andrew was a wild card on
Wednesday. Danny won Thursday. I sense a matter of collegiate honor that's going
to give this one to Andrew. Andrew comes from a school that already has a J!
College champ.
Jason: James was from Georgtown?
Chico: Yes.
Gordon: I'm going to stay with the winners. Danny.
Chico: Block?
Jason: Danny as well.
Gordon: Block agrees with me. Crap.
Chico: HA!
Jason: LOL
Chico: Okay, we have Danny up there. Wednesday... Joey vs. Suchita vs. Vera.
Joey won Wednesday's game. Suchita came behind Danny on Thursday, but not by
much. Vera was another wild card from Tuesday. Me, I think Joey is scary good.
He gets my vote.
Jason: I am with Suchita.
Gordon: I'll agree with Chico and say Joey
Chico: Win with a winner. So let's put Joey up. Now for the final match up.
(Monday's Winner) vs. Danny vs. Joey. Again... Win with a winner. Joey gets it.
Gordon: I'll go with scary good Joey
Jason: My vote don't count...but I will make it unanimous :)
Chico: Okay.
Gordon: It counts, but in the opposite direction. Like if you vote for McCain,
we know that Obama will win :)
Chico: That said, we congratulate Erik Reichenbach for winning the
Jeopardy! College Championship.
Gordon: ...or for being the dumbest Survivor player ever.
Chico: Rule 1. You have immunity... You don't give it up for ANYTHING. Rule 2.
Trust NO ONE.
Jason: Right :)
Chico: If they come to you for something, chances are they want something in
return. Don't fall for it. Erik broke BOTH rules. Stupid Erik.
Jason: So we have an all female final four?
Chico: We have an all female final four. Ami's wish just came true... and she's
not around to see it.
Shame, really...Heh... No, not really.
Gordon: This is the first time in Survivor history where we have 4 females in
the Final Four.
Chico: Let's see who we have, though. We have Amanda, who acts like she's been
in control all game
long...We have Parvati, who acts like she's been in control all game
long...
Gordon: Well with the exception of the last few weeks, she has been. if she
gets to the end, she wins.
Chico: We have Cirie, who really HAS been in control all game long...And we have
lame-duck Natalie, who isn't sure WHO'S in control. Quack. Guess who gets voted
out first.
Gordon: The interesting thing is that all 4 women have a chance to win,
depending on who they are against. Big Board please?
Handicapping Survivors
- Amanda wins if: She gets in the end.
- Cirie wins if: she's up against anyone except Amanda.
- Parvati wins if: she's up against Natalie
- Natalie wins if: she believes in miracles and angry faves.
|
Gordon: Subject: Handicapping the Survivors. Let's start with Amanda. I think if
she gets to the end, she wins. She's the only person there who has played a good
game who hasn't
pissed anyone off.
Chico: Agreed. She's been the most calculating mind of the four. Okay, next...
if Cirie goes into the final, she wins against anyone except Amanda. Cirie's
been playing under the radar from day one, you could
tell.
Gordon: If Parvati gets there, then as long as Cirie isn't there with her,
she wins.
Chico: I beg to differ. You have a whole jury that's pissed off at Parvati. She
made the blunder of not thinking about "jury building".
Gordon: True, although I think the jury is pissed off at Parvati more.
Chico: She just wanted to love'em and leave'em, so to speak. She's not trying to
win. She's trying to get the others to lose. She'd have the LEAST chance of
winning the million were it
not for...Lame duck Natalie.
Gordon: Natalie could actually squeeze this out. She will get votes from all the
fans and either needs a split vote or 1 or 2 votes from angry faves.
Chico: Let me just get it out in the open right now.... Parvati is
NEVER going to win this game.
Gordon: But here's the interesting thing about the CBS blurb. They said there
would be THREE Tribal Councils, which means that either CBS's blurb is wrong
- or - we're only gatting a final 2.
Chico: Or there's one more hitch that we haven't heard.
Gordon: Right. So if there's only a final 2, then Parvati wins if she's against
Natalie, Amanda wins if she gets there, and Cirie wins if she's not against Amanda.
Chico: That said... we congratulate Mike Levy for winning Survivor
Micronesia. Could've won Deal or No Deal in the Philippines if he wasn't
a chicken.
Gordon: Not won it per se, but he could have been $750,000 richer.
Chico: Yep. First off, let me say... Seeing how the world plays the game
we know and love... just amazing. Something that should be explored further *come on, Australia*. First
round of Deal in the Philippines. Mike had this board...
500 / 10K / 500K / 750K
Chico: And this offer... $274,000. As you can see, it's a 50/50 board. Split
down the middle. Two lower, two higher. You're basically giving that up for a
shot at triple. And there's a safety net. And a block, to boot.
Jason: Pretty much
Chico: How would you two jokers play this?
Jason: You go on. One shot.
Gordon: I would have gone one more case as well.
Chico: You go on... one shot... one more case. Textbook answer. Gold stars for
both of you. Mike...DEALS. Next case is $10,000. Next offer would've been
$450,000.
Jason: Ouch.
Chico: You don't know ouch yet. Next case after that... $500. Offer: $687,000.
Gordon: Ouch!
Jason: Oh no.
Gordon: Someone get me a tourniquet and get Mike away from the sharp objects.
Chico: That, for me, would've been Show me the money time. That's over half of
the mean.
Gordon: Yep, That's when you quit. He had $750,000 in his case, so being chicken
cost him half a mil.
Chico: Yep. Get in, ride the bull until the legs fall off... go home with steak
instead of chicken. Patrick Hook did it in the next game, and ended up with
$71,000. Granted, it was after this board:
PENNY / $25 / 200K
Chico: That's dangerous.
Jason: Very
Chico: This is a dangerous board.
Jason: Good call
Chico: There was also 50 on the board before he got that offer. So yeah, he did
one crazy thing and it ended up playing dividends. He had the $200,000, but he knew when to stop riding.
Gordon: Speaking of Crazy, what do you have on Crazy Dave, as we go to Estonia?
Chico: Craze Dave, aka Dave Krauch, was pretty crazy in his game,
especially to play on four round after leaving just the 750K on the board...But
then again, he has $218,000, so you can't fault him for that. This is after his
sister delivers the line of the night... and feel free to use this on your
friends. "If you don't take this deal, I'm going to kick your crazy ass.' Got out at the right time, too. Next case had the 750K
Jason: Smart play.
Chico: Another smart player was Elaine Primeaux, who sold $10 for $40,000. She
too was faced with a precarious board....What would you do if you saw THIS...
10 / 200 / 1000 / 10k / 100k
Chico: Offer: $31,000
Jason: One more.
Chico: You just knocked out 1000, J.
Gordon: I'd stop.
Chico: You just won $31,000, Gordon. J just won $40,000. The most she could've
won in that game in offers is $55,000.
Gordon: You mean Jason would have won it 80% of the time. 20% of the time, he'd
knock out the big one and go
on tilt.
Chico: Still, good odds. 31% of top money... and 20% of top money going bye bye.
40% of top money and 33% shot at it... It's too close.
Jason: Yeah...Coin Flip.
Chico: If there was a greater than 10 percent differential between top money and
the bank offer ratio... I'd go for it. Statistics in action, folks. Beautiful
thing.
Jason: Stay in school kids.
Gordon: Yes. school helps you remember lyrics. Isn't that right, Chico?
Chico: Yeah. We move from math to music (again?!) as we have a return player on
"Don't Forget the Lyrics" take $200,000. The player: Joseph McBratney. He could've had $350,000 on this... Turn my
mic up...
Jason: (feedback and spotlights) HIT IT!
Chico: Sorry, he took $200,000. This is "Hit the Road Jack" for $350,000.
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more...What'd you say?
Hit the
road, Jack and don't you come back no more, no more,
no more, no more,
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more...
Oh,
Woman,
oh woman, don't you treat me so mean...
Chico: And... backup singers!
Gordon: You're the Meanest Old Woman That I've Ever Seen
Chico: Gordon, if I was Wayne Brady and you were on stage with me
and Rickey Minor... you would've won $350,000... Instead, you're in a chat room
with me and I'm no Wayne Brady, so you get nothin'.
Jason: LOL
Gordon: I love the song. Listened to it all the time when Buster
Poindexter sang it with Suzie Tyrell
Chico: One person MAY run the board next week, so you
might want to tune in for that.
Gordon: Let's see...May sweeps next week. Seems like the right time to do
that. When's the right time to make off with $40,000 on a Plinko board?
Chico: Umm... how about any time? Of course, if I was playing in prime time, I'd
rather have
$60,000. That way, I get the Golden Plinko Chip...It's Bling. Of course, the
only way to get $60,000 in primetime Plinko happens to be the way to get the
GPC... Down the middle no less than three times. Hard, but not impossible.
Gordon: Right. Did anyone win the million this week?
Chico: Nope. Shot #2 at it... First Showcase. Evening gown, 14K white gold
bracelet, handbag, CD jukebox,
Chevrolet Corvette. Gordon, you're top winner. Play or pass :-)
Gordon: Ill play, Chico. $69,069
Chico: Jason, you get this...
Jason: Ok.
Chico: A riding lawn mower, four Stetson hats, home theatre system, dining room
with dinnerware, motorhome.
Jason: I'll say $80,000.
Chico: Okay. Jason. Actual price of your showcase... $77,727. You're over, dude.
Gordon: (losing horns)
Jason: I was over when I watched it on wed. :)
Chico: You're always over for some reason. Gotta cut that out. Gordon, your
actual price of your Showcase...$74,415, a difference of $5346.
Gordon: Yay! (Jiggles)
Chico: No million, but now we all know where your mind is. Now if we can only
find our Brainvision Hamsters...
Gordon: Oh Chico, I need your help in containing the hamsters.
Chico: What's wrong?
Gordon: Hans the pig took the baby litter and is sliding them them down
the Plinko board. KenJen just landed in the $1,000 space.
Jason: That's just wrong.
Gordon: Amanda is going flying down...hits a few nails....Ow!....land
in....$0.
Chico: And getting wronger by the minute.
Jason: Time for the cue, I think.
Chico: Yeah.
Gordon: Roll that Beautiful Brain Footage
(Doug:
Live, local, and latebreaking... From the four corners of the globe to your
frontal lobe, this is WLTI Brainvision News, and now here's Gordon Pepper, Chico
Alexander, and the award-winning Brainvision News Team)
Chico: Thanks, Doug. ... Okay, who starts?
Gordon: I can start with a datebook
Chico: Okay, what do you got?
This Monday - American Gladiators, Season 2. Watch the contestants get all HGH...I
mean buffed up for their debut.
Chico: Drug free.. so put the crack up.
Jason: Seriously...good deal for NBC keeping them drug free.
Gordon: Oh yes. They get filled up with lots of love prayer and those special
colored pills.
Jason: LOL
Chico: What are the chances that we see the winners of season 1 as Gladiators?
Gordon: Since they've been mentioned in the Previews, I'll say 100%.
Chico: ... Well shut me up. But if it's anything like season 1 (only bigger),
then we
should be in for quite a treat. I didn't think the Sony stage worked.
Gordon: Can bigger mean more than 5 games a show, please?
Jason: My thoughts exactly.
Chico: Let's hope. Come on, NBC... I know you have it in you... how many times
have I uttered THAT sentence futilely?
Jason: More than we can count, unfortunately.
Chico: I just want to put a billboard out in LA that says that. "I know you have
it in you"
Gordon: I got something that will make you feel better (Hands over a bat)
Chico: I feel better. I like bats. First, though, I have a ton of green lights.
Gordon: Including one that will make you cringe
Nick at Nite is prepping to launch a redo of GUTS called "My Family's Got GUTS".
Jason: That isnt the cringe worthy one
Gordon: Nope.
Comedy Central is prepping to launch a relaunch of The Gong Show called "The
Gong Show with Dave Attell".
Jason: This was a fun show.
Chico: That isn't the cringeworthy one either.
Gordon: Nope.
Chico: If anything, a redo of the Gong Show (done PROPERLY) is
overdue.
Jason: Do you count Extreme Gong?
Chico: I don't accept it. And now, the one that will make you say "Oh no..." I
give you the king of "Oh no"... Gordon.
Gordon: Oh yes...
Remember the concept of Kittens Vs. Cougars on Age of Love?
Chico: It took me three drinks to forget. Thanks.
Jason: Oh no...
We now have, coming to your cable TV sets, a Cougar dating show. Created by
Chico's faaaaaavorite producer in the whooooooole wide world...Mike Fleiss.
Chico: Oh no. Can I shoot myself now?
Jason: Helmet, Chico?
Chico: Thank you, J... GO SPEED RACER GO! *runs into wall*... I'm aight.
Gordon: Sigh. (Picks up paint droppings from the wall)
Jason: guess you liked the movie
Chico: Here's a hint... stay after the credits... Tons of fan
service.
Gordon: So onto the bat.
Chico: Onto the bat indeed.
In yet another attempt to stave off the loss of Project Runway, Bravo has given
Magical Elves, their producers, what we in the business call "golden handcuffs".
Jason: How much are they worth? :)
Chico: Doesn't say
Jason: ok
Chico: But it basically gives NBC Universal first look at any Magical Elves
productions.
Jason: There you go
Gordon: Its basically saying that you are the king of BRAVO. Don't you dare
leave.
Chico: I thought it basically said "We own you"
Jason: That too.
Chico: So Project Runway MAY go to Lifetime... but it may be at the
loss of the producers...
Jason: which could mean Jump the Shark time.
Chico: OR they could pitch a similar show to Bravo. Could go either
way. Meanwhile, to prove that this show goes either way, I'm
supplying Gordon with Haterade. It's good Haterade.
Gordon: It's yummy.
Chico: It's REALLY good.
Jason: How yummy?
Gordon: Especially if you're David Cook or Syesha Mercado
Jason: Oh?
Chico: History repeats itself.
Remember when David Archuleta added a line from 'Beautiful Girls' in his song
'Stand By Me'?
Chico: Guess whose idea THAT was.
Jason: Daddy?
Gordon: Daddy. But that's not the problem
Jason: Whats the problem?
Chico: Oh yeah.
Gordon: The problem is -
They didn't have the rights to that song, so in order to avoid a lawsuit, they
had to pay lots of money to pay for the rights.
Jason: After the fact?
Gordon: Yep - so you know that will cost a lot more.
And as a result, Jeff Archuleta is BANNED from American Idol's Backstage for the
rest of the show.
Chico: Basically, Idol said. "You cost us a fortune. No, stage dad,
that's a BAD STAGE DAD!" No backstage pass for you.
Jason: And Sean Kingston gets a fat royalty check.
Gordon: Oh beauuuuutiful cash. So part of 'Are You Smarter Than' goes to Jeff
Archuleta. The rest
goes to...
Erik Reichenberg. Dumbest. Survivor. Ever.
Chico: Yay?
Gordon: And he goes down as the second most popular Ice Cream Boy ever.
Chico: Who's the first? Ben or Jerry?
Gordon: Ba DUM bum.
Jason: Tip the Veal. Try The Waitress.
Gordon: As for who is the first...Michael Larson, anyone?
Chico: Jason, have a pint on me. It's time to get fully loaded.
Jason: Hic.
If you're on the Facebook, and you're a fan of American Gladiators, then you
should search for their new app (just don't go telling everyone on your list
about it).
Gordon: Maybe they'll have a link to Militia's latest Home Video on it.
Chico: Or not.
Jason: Yeah. Or Not.
Chico: I think they're trying to outlaw that.
Gordon: You think they will outlaw Media Hoes?
Jason: Never.
Chico: Nope.
In this week's Media Ho Report, ousted model Dominique talks about
being more popular than the winner of Top Model, Sabrina Bryan and Mark Ballas
break up, Andy Baldwin and Marla Maples breaks up...ANT and DEC have to give
back an award they find out later they didn't win, and Heather Mills may be
going to Celebrity Apprentice. OJ
Simpson...not so much.
Gordon: But none of them are the Hoes of the Week.
Jason: Hoes? Plural?
Gordon: Plural - a whole guild of hoes.
Chico: AFTRA? SAG? AMPTP? The Board of Magic?
Gordon: The Hoes are the Screen Actors Guild and AFTRA, who are now on the
clock with the AMPTP. This deadline - June 30th. And if THEY strike, then we'll
be seeing NOTHING but reality shows down the pike.
Jason: My guess is they will settle sooner than later. The ratings are
down on TV. They don't want a total meltdown.
Chico: Oh yeah. The strike has left its mark. It's hand shaped red mark over the
face of American television.
Gordon: Yep - the TV world can't afford another strike.
Chico: Play ball. Please.
Jason: and if they do strike...they only have to blame themselves...they
saw what the other strike did/is doing.
Chico: Do they really want to go through that again?
Jason: I honestly don't know.
Gordon: I would hope not. And those...are your Hoes.
Chico: And this... is a ticket to Hawaii, which is as global as
we're going to go...
...because Wowowee is touring the US and their latest stop was... Hawaii.
Jason: Very cool.

Chico: Okay, still to come, I look into the official WLTI crystal bowling ball
