Episode 432: The Whack Heard Around the World

Show Notes Episode 432: The Whack Heard Around the World This week Host Dave Bledsoe gets into a drunken row with Fast Eddie because Fast Eddie won’t have one of his guys “do something about his Joe Rogan problem”. (His problem is he liked Joe Rogan on Newsradio and wants to know what happened to that Joe Rogan.) On the show this week we go back thirty years from the week of release to the time a group of bumbling idiots lightly bruised a figure skater’s leg. (morons, all of them) Along the way we learn why you should never play cards with Dave’s Mom. (She regularly won back Dave’s allowance, because Dave sucks at poker!) Then we zip back to 1994 and the world of Olympic Figure Skating and the cut throat (knee bashing) competition to make the US Olympic Team. We meet Nancy and Tonya, two girls from very similar backgrounds with big dreams. Only one of them was married to a moron, and that moron was going to make things very hard for BOTH of them.  (Whatever you think about Tonya, she had horrible taste in men!) We follow along as the world's dumbest criminals hatch an overly complicated plan to take out Nancy Kerrigan, if they could only find her. Wackiness ensues when one of these dipshits whacks Nancy Kerrigan in the leg. (Honestly, these guys were idiots) Our Sponsor this week is Johnson’s Protectives, don’t take a shot to the nuts without a Johnson’s Protective! We open the show with news footage of the run by whacking and close with Alyson Greenfield’s Mom explaining conflict resolution.
