Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up!: Academy Award Talk, "Reno 911!: Miami," and a Children's Museum.

By: The Dude on the Right
I have really got to stop planning doing anything the morning after The Academy Awards, which they schedule at 3 hours, because there is no way in hell it ever lasts, well, 3 hours.  As bad as it was for us in the Midwest, I'm sure the East Coast folks dropped off way before the major awards were announced, because, well, the Awards ended at around 11:20 PM my time, which puts them around 12:20 AM East time.  Stu Gotz didn't watch much of them, because he was smart, but for this episode of "Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up" I start by giving Stu my take on the Oscars, how I was bummed "Pan's Labyrinth" didn't win its major award, and need to go back, thanks to listening to Howard Stern, and rent "Caligula."

I also tell Stu why he should go and see "Reno 911!: Miami" and Stu tells me that if you have kids, or are dating a dudette with kids, a good place to go in Chicago is the Chicago Children's Museum.  He also explains that another great place to visit is the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, and was amazed at the size of the Komodo Dragon.  It ain't a small lizard.

Thanks for listening and your comments.

Kissing Jennifer Aniston, Dancing With One Leg, and Go Gina and Leslie!

By: The Dude on the Right
Having been a long-time fan of Jennifer Aniston I always wondered when it would finally happen, but me and her finally kissed last night*.  Let me tell you, she is a good kisser.  That's important for me, but what's important for you is you will watch the next season of "Dancing With the Stars" even if you never watched it before, because Heather Mills, used-to-be Heather Mills-McCartney, is one of the contestants.  Why?  You won't admit it, but you want to see her leg fall off.

And then there is "American Idol" which has 12 dudes that aren't that great and 12 dudettes that blow the dudes out of the water.  Me, I'm in the Gina and Leslie camp, at least right now, because they are from my neck of the woods, and both are cute in their own way.

I also talk only a little about Britney Spears and nothing about Anna Nicole Smith, because, well, this podcast would probably go on for hours with my analysis of the both of them.  And do they really need any more analyzing?

Thanks for listening and your comments.

What's New? Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up! Britney Spears, The Daytona 500, and "Ghost Rider" Talk.

By: The Dude on the Right
Not even a crash during The Daytona 500, resulting in someone crossing the finish line, upside down, and on fire, could keep me and Stu from getting together today for our latest installment of "Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up!"  And so we got together, to chat.

Stu wanted to rant about Britney Spears, especially after her latest haircut episode.  I understood his point, but thinking about it now, maybe her Aunt that just past away was her only true friend.  From the life she has led I wonder if she has those true friends, like most of us have, who have the ability to stop us from, well, shaving our heads and getting tattoos, unless, of course, all of use are totally shit-faced at the same time.

Both of us saw "Ghost Rider," and neither of us thought it really sucked.  Me, I watched The Daytona 500, where 3/4 of the race was a tad dull, and then all hell broke loose where it was a cross between, well, NASCAR, and "Talladega Nights."

Thanks for listening and your comments.

Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up! The Bag-Lady, "Norbit," Scuba Diving, and TV Talk.

By: The Dude on the Right
Stu is back from his travels, so I'm not flying solo for this installment of "Stu & The Dude's Weekend Wrap-Up!"

Stu's weekend was capped by a lot of scuba diving stuff, complete with a night out with way-competitive scuba folks (thankfully they weren't diving, or with knives) and meeting the "Deep Sea Detectives."  His travels last weekend also took him to Disney's Pirate and Princess Party where he dressed up Mama Gotz in a skimpy pirate outfit, and makes fun of the dudes who didn't grow a pair and dressed up as Prince Charming.  He wouldn't elaborate on any Pirate booty he may have gotten, but the kids were with him so there was probably nothing to brag to the guys about.

Me, I saw a dear old friend of mine, The Bag-Lady, with her daughter, and could still kick myself in the ass for not going to see her daughter's tennis match in lieu of seeing "Norbit."  I give Stu some of my take on The Grammy Awards telecast, as well as my initial thoughts about the new season of "Survivor."

So much to talk about, so little time.

Thanks for listening and your comments.

R.I.P. Anna Nicole Smith, and on "Survivor," Go Alex, Dre, and James!

By: The Dude on the Right
Sadly today marked the passing of Anna Nicole Smith.  Okay, maybe not personally sad for me because I never really knew the lady, but it's all over the news.  Sadly for Rosie O'Donnell she has some remarks on record about Ms. Smith (thanks Roe Conn for hipping them to me during your radio show).

Also, today marks the return of Survivor, this time it's Fiji.  In my last podcast I lamented about my love for Jessica, but sadly, with some picks out of a hat, I have to really root for three dudes, namely Alex, Dre, and James, because, well, there is money, umm, I mean a prize involved.

Thanks for listening and your comments.

Go Bears? Prince was Great, has a Big Guitar, and The Dude Roots for Jessica from Survivor.

By: The Dude on the Right
Well, the Chicago Bears couldn't seem to put it all together against the Indianapolis Colts for Super Bowl XLI, but bring on baseball and basketball.  At least it wasn't the Cleveland Browns vs. the Chicago Bears, because I am so torn where my allegiances lie anymore.  Prince was at the game, though, to put on the best halftime performance ever, complete with his giant schlong, I mean guitar.

And in other TV news, Survivor is back, this time from Fiji, and I'm already a  fan of Jessica.  Sure, I was almost 12 when she was born, and at that time had a crush on a different girl, but I've grown since then.

Thanks for listening and your comments.

Abdulism's of the Week Are Coming Soon, Go Bears, and Baby, It's Cold Outside.

By: The Dude on the Right
As much as I like the American Idol auditions, thankfully they are almost over as Feb. 13 brings all of the contestants to Hollywood, and if all goes well, the return of my "Abdulisms of the Week," or whatever I decide to call them.  I'm also almost sick of the Super Bowl coverage and can't wait for the game to be over, even though the Chicago Bears are one of the teams in the game.  And with the weather we are supposed to have in Chicago on Sunday, wouldn't it be so much cooler to have a Super Bowl game here, with a game-time temperature of about 3 degrees (so much cooler, get it?), rather than the game being playing in Miami with temperatures in the upper 60's, maybe with some rain.

Thanks for listening and your comments.
