Day 590 (08/19/08) Back From Beantown!
Day 590 (08/19/08)

Finally we were back live this morning, and the theme for today was easily that BJ hates Mono-Nick & The Rev.  BJ came in this morning to find out that his coffee mug & his water jug were missing.  It's Mono-Nick's job to have BJ's water & coffee ready in the morning, and to clean up after the show, so at some point while we were gone these 2 important
Day 588 (08/12/08) 4 Men??????
Day 588 (08/12/08) 

Today we had a fun topic, based on a posting that the Rev found on Craigs List (I'm sure he was serching for some NSA action!)...check this posting out:

I Just received an e mail about my wife at youporn.com.
I checked it out, it's her but looks to be about 5 or 6 years ago.
We've been married 4 years, there has never been a problem, but this turns my stomach.
Day 588 (08/11/08) Queensryche Unplugged!
Day 588 (08/11/08) 

So both Double R & BJ had a rough weekend.  Sucks for them because mine was AWESOME!!!!!  I went to Crue Fest, and although I only remember them playing 3 songs, they sounded awesome for those 3 songs!  Saturday we had a blast in Bremerton for a Foul Balls game...and for those asking, no, I didn't make it to the coffee shop where that hot barista

Today was a rough morning for me, even though I am no
Day 586 (08/07/08) Cut It Out!
Day 586 (08/07/08)

We spent some time this morning talking about the upcoming Bob Saget Roast & how Bob & John Stamos were upset with some of the comics for being to hard on the Olsen Twins.  the funny part is that Uncle Jesse took the first jab at the girls since he was the emcee, by saying:  "The whole time Bob and I were doing 'Full House,' he was also hosting
Day 586 (08/06/08) Emails...lots of them!
Day 586 (08/06/08) 

Today's show started with an interesting topic...all based on a discussion about the show "Weeds."  BJ is a huge fan of the show...I used to watch it, but for no reason other than being busy, I haven't watched it much since season 1.  BJ was telling us about a strange storyline involved the lead characters youngest son...somehow naked pix of her
Day 584 (08/05/08) Denver Sucks!
Day 584 (08/05/08)

We were finally live this morning & it was great to be back on the air, and especially great to be back in Seattle.  We went to Denver Colorado for a morning show conference & it was a blast to see all of our radio buds, but Denver...as a city...SUCKS!  It was hot, and it was that dry heat that made people miserable to be alive in Bronco-Land.  I have
Day 583 (07/29/08) Choke Break!
Day 583 (07/29/08)

This morning we discussed an email from a woman that walked into a co-worker having some "alone" time while at work watching internet porn.  He doesn't know she saw him.  Wow.  The funny thing is that the same thing happened to Double R a few years ago when he worked overnights--he walked in on a co-worker doing the same thing.  She didn't want
Day 582 (07/28/08) Thanks Pearl Jam!
Day 582 (07/28/08)

I feel like ass today--real tired, & I think I'm getting sick, so I will probably make this a short one....I do have 2 videos to share with ya, so be sure to watch em!

Over the weekend, The Foul Balls played in Enumclaw & had a great time...after the game we went to the Yella Beak for some post game drinks. Fortunately I had my new Flip Mino camcorder in my
Day 581 (07/25/08) Tap that Ass!
Day 581 (07/25/08) 

Today we learned something new thanks to an email we received from a dude that wanted to inform us about Peanut Allergies.  The reason he emailed was because yesterday we were talking about how the Mariners are having a section at an upcoming game that will be a peanut free area.  We wondered why it's such a big deal to do this, and I thought that if
Day 580 (07/24/08) Mound Ball!
Day 580 (07/24/08)

Yesterday, all of us from the show went to the Mariners game.  The M's lost, but we had a great time.  We saw a guy run out on the field, avoid 2 tackles before getting laid out by security.  We got BJ to try Dippin' Dots for the first time...or as I like to call them..."Little Scoops Of Heaven."  We witnessed Double R scam Garlic Fries from
Day 579 (07/23/08) Deon Grant of the Hawks!
Day 579 (07/23/08)

The morning started off with both Toppy & I giving our review of last nights Judas Priest show.  Both of us were a little too inebriated to give a detailed review...but it was an awesome show.  Rob Halfords voice is still amazing after all of these years.  I affectionately dubbed the show "Sword Fight 08'"--if you were looking for chicks, it was
Day 578 (07/18/08) Blast from the past...
Day 578 (07/18/08)

Huge thanks to everyone that came out to the PIT in Auburn last night--what a great time...look at the size of this bottle of Jager!



Today we started the show off giving away a trip to L.A. to go to the World Premiere of "X-Files:  I Want To Believe" & a chance to meet David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and Chris Carter.  A huge prize for a die
Day 577 (07/16/08) The Duff & Dave Show!
Day 577 (07/16/08) 

Damn am I tired today!  Last night we had a Foul Balls softball game in Renton...and afterwards we went & hung at the Red Dog Saloon--wow, what an awesome evening.  The Red Dog Saloon has to be one of the coolest bars I've been to...there is an outside part to the bar that makes you feel like you are at the coolest backyard party ever.  they have a
Day 576 (07/16/08) Double R is LATE!
Day 576 (07/16/08) 

Today show started off with BJ having an incident because Double R was late.  Dub wasn't late on the air, but he is usually in the building by 5:30 AM & he didn't show up until 5:57.  To give yaa peek behind the scenes...the way our show works is that The Rev & Mono Nick show up around 4 ish to start gathering stories that we might want to talk
Day 575 (07/15/08) The Dark Knight!
Day 575 (07/15/08) 

So yesterday after the show, all of us went to a media screening of the new Batman Movie...the Dark Knight.  Wow.  That's all I can say...wow.  It is the best comic book based film of all time.  I loved Iron Man, and this was better than Iron Man, it was better than the last Batman flick.  All the hype we've been hearing about this movie is
Day 574 (07/14/08) We are back...not 100%
Day 574 (07/14/08) 

To quote Sgt. Hairclub:  "my morning show is falling apart...Double R has a broken knee, BJ has a broken sinus, and STP has a broken heart."  That pretty much sums our show up these days.  Luckily we learned that Double R's knee is bad, but not as bad as originally thought--he will be on crutches for a while, but no surgery needed.  BJ
Day XXX (07/10/08) Foo Fighters!
Day XXX (07/10/08)

So BJ was out sick again today--his voice is shot, he won't be in tomorrow & I would be shocked if he wasn't in on Monday--we shall see.  The bonus of him not being in today was that I was able to go see the Foo Fighters & stay up later than usual.  Boy am I glad that I stayed for the whole show.  In the beginning of their show at the Key Arena, Dave
Day 573 (07/08/08) Sorry!
Day 573 (07/08/08) 

BJ was out sick today...turns out that it wasn't allergies he was dealing with yesterday, but a cold.  We hope he will be better tomorrow, but we are playing it by ear right now.  If you were hopingto hear us interview Plaxico Burress of the Giants, the rest of us taped that interview & it will be featured in Thursday's Deleted Experience.  That's
Day 572 (07/01/08) "Wow...She Finally Did It"
Day 572 (07/01/08) 

What a morning.  I'll keep this short, but after reading online speculation that I was quitting the show...I felt the need to be 100% honest in why I have been miserable.  Not to mention all the emails we were getting from people asking what was wrong with me as I sounded more angry & bitter on the air recently.  I don't feel like rehashing the
Day 570 (06/28/08) Pagans!
Day 570 (06/28/08)

Today we learned a little about the pagan religion...and guess who we can thank...yup...you guessed it--Kathy Lee Gifford.  Yes, you are probably just as surprised that her name is in news again, but check herout on the Today show....her comments about Pagans has upset some folks.  it is funny, if you replace the word Pagan with any other religion or ethnicity
Day 570 (06/27/08) Craig Gass!
Day 570 (06/27/08)

Huge thanks to Craig Gass for coming in this morning.  Check Craig out at www.myspace.com/craiggass!  Craig is a hilarious comic known for his amazing impressions of Christopher Walken, Gene Simmons of KISS, Adam Sandler, Sam Kinison, and many others.  As you know, George Carlin passed away earlier this week, and Craig & George were good friends--so much
Day 569 (06/26/08) First On the Scene
Day 569 (06/26/08)

Thanks to everyone that came out to watch the Foul Balls play in Everett against the Buffalo Soldiers.  Yours truly had the game of my lifetime...going 3 for 3 with 4 RBI's knocked in.  It's funny--I'm such a fat ass that it doesn't matter how far I hit the ball, it will always be a single since I don't like running.  Some have said  run like a penguin,
Day 568 (06/25/08) Tommy Land
Day 568 (06/25/08)

To sum up today's show...Imus is a liar...trying to say his latest racist moment regarding Pac Man Jones was supposed to be taken as sarcasm.  Women suck...just read the MSN article about how to prepare to leave your husband...it basically teaches women how to act like everything is cool & then one day immediately switch gears & leave with the ultimate exit
Day 567 (06/24/08) Shaq Fu'd Kobe!
Day 567 (06/24/08)

This morning began with us playing the audio from this great video of Shaquille O'Neal freestyle rapping about his former teammate Kobe Bryant:




During news, I read a story about what has to be the dumbest reason for 2 people to get offended...it's a sad example of a new channel (KOMO 4) trying to make news out of a non story, and the fact that they called the
Day 565 (06/23/08) George Carlin R.I.P.
Day 565 (06/23/08) 

What a day...you ever have a really horrible day, and the next day is like an extension of that?  Well...yesterday I had the day from hell...I then come in hoping that work will get my mind off of things, and I walk in to see that George Carlin died yesterday due to heart problems.  What a bummer...the dude is a true comic genius...I am glad that I was
Day 565 (06/20/08) Hot & Fluffy!
Day 565 (06/20/08) 

What a jam packed show we had today...be sure to watch the video blog, as we did what had to be the dumbest radio game of all time to give away a really sweet prize--Lunch with NASCAR star Kasey Kahne (Enumclaw's finest...besides Ken "Mr. Hands" Pinion of course).

Today we spent some time talking about the anniversary of the death of Perry Manley. 
Day 564 (06/19/08) For Those about to (Steve) Rock!
Day 564 (06/19/08)

So for those of ya that have been listening all week...BJ has been inspired by the movie The Hulk in that he is trying to go through the shows "without incident."  OK...in actually he was inspired byall the emails he has received lately saying that he has been overly angry these days.  For the past 4 days, BJ has not blown up on any member of the
Day 563 (06/18/08) Melt Down!
Day 563 (06/18/08)

Apologies for a late blog...all of us went down to Green River Community College to speak in front of a radio class...it was a blast!  Met some very cool people while there & I am sure we will share the ultimate Mono-Nick story tomorrow on the air.

Today was a strange morning...with BJ on his quest to not blow up on anyone, it seems to have put all of us on
Day 562 (06/17/08) Save Our Sonics!
Day 562 (06/17/08) 

Damn--all of us are exhausted today, as yesterday was a long ass day.  To put it simply...I got to work around 4:30 AM...left work at 3:45 to head to the Save Our Sonics rally, and after the rally we went straight to Pacific Place to check out the screening for the new Steve Carell flick "Get Smart."  The Rev hated Get Smart, but the rest of us
Day 561 (06/16/08) Operation: Hate BJ's Show
Day 561 (06/16/08)

Today our show was all about an email we received from a dude that isn't happy with BJ...this led to a topic that Topshelf always "loves" (an by love I mean hates with all of his Crown soaked soul)....What do you hate about our show?  here is the email so you can understand what led us to that topic:

Dear BJ-

I’ve been listening to your show
Day 560 (06/13/08) Days Without Incident: 1 Day
Day 560 (06/13/08)

Today's show started off with BJ giving us the scoop behind why he's been an angry fella recently...it turns out his wife has been driving him insane, and it all came to a head during couples therapy last night.  Luckily things are better, and he shared a funny story about how he was able to make the therapist & his wife laugh in the middle of a tense moment
Day 559 (06/12/08) Happy Fathers Day!
Day 559 (06/12/08)

We spent a good portion of the morning talking about Fathers Day & how BJ thinks this is a lame holiday since it really isn't a day to celebrate the dad.  BJ says the best kind of Fathers Day would be for everyone in his life to leave him alone & let him have some solitude.  BJ really lost it when Double R mentioned that he had an opportunity to go to L.A.
Day 558 (06/11/08) Das Boot!!!!!!!!
Day 558 (06/11/08)

Unfortunately Bret Michaels wasn't on the show this morning--this time it wasn't my fault though.  If you recall, a few weeks back I was convinced our interview was going to happen one morning, even though thewhole time it was scheduled for today--I felt like a dumbass.  If you remember--I did the same thing when we were supposed to have Miss Piggy on the
Day 557 (06/10/08) The Incredible Hulk!
Day 557 (06/10/08) 

Before I get to today's blog--some of ya know I am a big Weezer fan...in fact you might have heard their new song "Pork & Beans" on the Cock Fight with Jolene--it didn't fare well, but have you seen the video?  It's pure genius.  They got all the viral video stars we have seen on You Tube & integrated them in the video...check it out:
Day 556 (06/09/08) Thanks You Tube!
Day 556 (06/09/08)

So we take a few days off last week to recover from the Rock Girl Gala--what a great night by the way--and I go to my emails on Friday & have a few emails from fans of the Video Blog asking me what happened to my You Tube Account.  I immediately assume You Tube is dealing with site issues...but nope, that wasn't the case...You Tube has suspended my account due to

Day 554 (06/03/08)

Today started off a lil rough for Topshelf & I, as both of were out at the Iron Maiden show last night.  Wow...those guys still kick ass! It was basically a greatest hits show for Maiden, I can't imagine that any fan left dissappointed!

This morning we chatted about this story:

Man Sentenced To Prison After Girl's MySpace Page Lies About Age
ORANGE COUNTy,
Day 553 (06/02/08) Kiss Kiss Molly's Lips
Day 553 (06/02/08)

Today we chatted quite a bit about what we did over the weekend...while BJ got in touch with his feminine side & went to the Sex & The City movie...the rest of us did manly stuff...like watching men beat upon other men.  It truly was an MMA weekend, where there were 2 big fights going down.  On Saturday, Kimbo Slice fought James Thompson.  These guys
Day 551 & 552 (05/29-30/08) 2 Blogs for the Price of 1!
Day 551 & 552 (05/29-30/08)

Apologies for not having a blog yesterday...we had a video shoot for an upcoming project that you guys will enjoy...the bummer though was that we were filming from noon until 5 pm.  I had to run Lucy home after that (yes, she is a part of the video) & go straight to band practice...so I had no time to write a blog or edit any video.

Before I get to
Day 550 (05/28/08) Bobby Engram!

Day 548 (05/23/08)

Today we had quite possibly my two favorite interviews of all time!  The first interview was with Ed Smith of Yelm Washington (no relation to Thee Ted Smith from The Mens Room).  This morning we were going through the news to prop for the show, and came across this story:

A man who claims to have had sex with 1,000 cars has defended his "romantic"

Fortunately from 6-10 AM was awesome...what a fun show...we had 3 super hot chicks in studio with us.  How can ya be in a bad moodwhen that happens.  Actually, some people can get grumpy because of hot chicks...mainly this Bonney Lake Mom that is pissed at all of the "Sex-Presso" shops
Day 546 (05/21/08) Candice?
Day 546 (05/21/08)

This morning on the show we had quite the interesting conversation based on a story about a poor kid whose life was changed drastically after getting hit by a ball during a little league game...here is the story:

Day 545 (05/19/08) Carlos Mencia=Cool Dude
Day 545 (05/19/08)

You might recall that on Friday we had an on air debate & topic over whether or not we should interview Carlos Mencia because of all the joke stealing allegations that have surfaced on You Tube & other places.  Well, I am glad we decided that we should interview Carlos.  Just like every other time we have had Carlos on the show...he was hilarious this
Day 544 (05/16/08) Un-Dead Radio!
Day 544 (05/16/08)

We did a Rock Poll this morning about whether or not we should interview Carlos Mencia on Monday morning.  I booked Carlos as he has a bunch of things on his plate, including a show at the Paramount on October11th, a Comedy Central Special on Sunday night (re-airs) on Tuesday, and season 4 of Mind Of Mencia on Wednesday.  Carlos has been on our show a handful of

Thankfully it is pay day.

We had a couple of cool interviews this morning...in the 6'er, the mom of former football great--Pat Tillman--called in to discuss her book "Boots On The Ground By Dusk:  My Tribute To Pat Tillman."  If you don't remember...Pat left his football career back in 2002 in order to join the US Army.  He was killed by friendly
Day 542 (05/14/08) C.I.L.F.'s???
Day 542 (05/14/08)

Today was full of random, yet fun, discussions...we started of the show with a random & unplanned chat about cartoon characters & ones that are sexy.  We learned a new phrase:  C.I.L.F.  That stands for Cartoon I'd Like to F**K.  Yes, this phrase actually exists...we learn something new every day.  Here are some of the C.I.L.F.'s we came up
Day 541 (05/13/08) Another Rev meltdown!
Day 541 (05/13/08)

It's always fun to watch the Rev meltdown on the air, and this morning during the 6'er...he once again had a classic moment where he lost it on BJ.  It all stemmed from Double R's sports...whenever we do sports, I play a celeb introducing Double R's Unbelievable Sports report, we have folks like Matt Hasselbeck, Ultimate Warrior, Craig Terrill, Warren Moon, Slick
Day 540 (05/12/08) Who is a better Kisser....hello? Dave?

Both BJ & Double R were in great spirits this morning...all because of the women in their lives.  For BJ it was his daughter, and for Double R, it was Yoko.  Talk about a fun Mother's Day weekend.

BJ & his daughter Sara had a nice afternoon on Saturday...that is until Sara popped the question to BJ about whether or not he is still a 100%

Day 539 (05/09/08)

The show started off with a guy that emailed us a couple of days ago because he was pissed at BJ for his opinion on men that dance & how it is not masculine.  Mark from Lakewood called in...it seemed like he cooled off since his email as the conversation between him & BJ was rather cordial...Mark sounded like a real good dude.  Here is the original email

Day 537 (05/07/08)

Today we spent a good portion of the 6'er discussing dudes that like to dance & how dumb that is.  The only dance I like doing is the Chicken Dance at weddings.  The Rev says he likes to dance...yet another reason why the Rev is strange, but we all knew that.  Oh yeah...there is another dance I enjoy to be a part of....I like lap dances too.

We also

Day 534 (05/02/08)

Marijuana, dope, weed, ganja, griff, pot, reefer, hemp, herb – call it what you will, but cannabis has long proved an irresistible

Day 531 (04/29/08)

Today could be considered "Iron Man Day" on our show as we had the director of the film on in the 6'er--Jon Favreau, and the creator of Iron Man on in the 9'er--BJ's hero--Stan Lee.

Big thanks to Jon for joining us...all of us are excited to see Iron Man as it looks awesome, and he even thinks it will be a great success.  Personally, you can't go wrong
