Congrats to The W.G.N. for graduating college, but sadly for me, as I tell Stu during our "Weekend Wrap-Up!" Podcast, is that The W.G.N.’s ceremony didn’t include Lyle Lovett getting an honorary degree so the only excitement for me, other than him graduating of course, was an annoying Asian lady with bad perfume who kept fanning herself. His graduating did give me a chance to actually see my "Make Me Smile" app on an iPad, and Stu and Mama Gotz also got to play with an iPad, too, but Stu was disappointed by the iPad’s lack of Java support so unfortunately it’s "No iPad for Mama Gotz" (she really needs Java, and Stu thinks Steve Jobs should get on the stick and implement it, not counting the fact that Mama Gotz couldn’t play Treasure Isle on Facebook because it doesn’t have Flash, either).

Technology aside, Stu saw a movie called "Gentlemen Broncos" via his Netflix and gives his rundown of the movie, and he is still liking the new Doctor Who, while I re-bailed on "Survivor" when Colby got booted, thankfully I suppose because I would have been pissed because Russell didn’t win again even though he may be the best Survivor player, ever, again.

Stu saw the Chicago Cubs and got the kids a bear, My BFF had a birthday which led Stu to a inform me of a failed opportunity for me to treat her to lunch at Fry’s Electronics, I’m cheering on Brett Michaels for the Celebrity Apprentice finale, and we both wonder who Holly Robinson Peete is.

Thanks for listening!

Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! No Blago, Some Big O, Being Sicko, and Obamo.

By:

Labor Day delayed our “Weekend Wrap-Up!” podcast, but Stu Gotz starts things off by trying to figure out why I’m not going to read “The Governor” by former Illinois Governor Rod Blagejovich.  Meanwhile, as I’m ruining the podcast with coughing fits as I get over a cold, Stu isn’t suffering from his allergies, at least while we are recording.

It being Labor Day weekend, though, for me it was fairly relaxing as I was dealing with said cold, although I did clean the garage with my BFF and catch “Office Space” and “Mean Girls,” while Stu saw some movie no one heard of called “Big Stan.”  Stu did not care for it.

But the big news in Chicago was Oprah shutting down Michigan Avenue for her kick-off special with the Black Eyed Peas, among others, and nationally President Obama was going to talk to kids to tell them to stay in school, but some people were afraid. Of what, Stu and I aren’t really sure, but I give some ideas why.

And finally, Stu caught “Whatever, Martha!” with Jennifer Koppelman Hutt and Alexis Stewart, for whatever reason, even though he gets the name wrong, calling it “Really, Martha!”, and maybe he should have asked Martha Stewart for her advice because he took down the kiddie pool, much to the dismay of the little Gotz’s.

Fall is coming, so is football, so next week we will probably give our Chicago Bears rundown, and maybe catch a movie in a theater, but for now…

Happy listening!

The Dude & The W.G.N.: Valentine’s Day Plans, Octomom Talk, Idol Talk, and Barack Obama Talks.

By:

The Dude on the Right

With myself having My BFF, and The W.G.N. having his girlfriend, I thought this "It’s Relative" podcast should focus on Valentine’s Day, some do’s and don’ts for the holiday, a part of "Why I read Playboy for the articles" segment, and what I was planning on doing with my BFF for our first Valentine’s Day together (she better not listen, because I told her not to). The W.G.N. thinks I have a great plan but probably smart for him, well, he doesn’t explain all of his plans, especially since his girlfriend was listening while we were podcasting.

But love isn’t all about this podcast, The W.G.N. has some discussion points about "American Idol," we chat a bit about Octomom (the dudette who had the eight babies), and then I confuse The W.G.N. with some audio clips that happen to actually be The President of the United States, Barack Obama.

And sure, I told a joke about the Octomom that I heard from my listening to Howard Stern on satellite radio with comedian Nick DiPaolo as a guest, and give credit where credit is due during the podcast, but I did forget to give credit where credit is due during the podcast because I first heard the Barack Obama clips while listening to Roe Conn on the, umm, normal radio.

Thanks for listening!

The Dude & The W.G.N.: Tires, Fat, Scary Movies, Racing, and Jillian Michaels’ Clips of the Week!

By:

The Dude on the Right

It’s a Thursday and The W.G.N. is here for this "It’s Relative" podcast, and both of us quickly realize that we can’t be commercial airline pilots, but thank God Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and the dudes in the airport towers were the fixtures of calm. Me, I almost lost some man-points because I couldn’t change a flat tire, but since the big, burly dude also wasn’t able to crack my nuts, I gained them back. In further podcast, somehow The W.G.N.’s mom went to go and see "My Bloody Valentine 3D," and he gives a little synopsis of the movie, he’s hoping to do well at an upcoming bowling tournament, and he brought the office workers together for a simple foot-race, with The W.G.N. being Mr. Fleet-Feet!

Me, I’m still stuck on TV viewing, warning The W.G.N. to clear his schedule for a new season of Survivor that starts next week, how Bikini Girl might be gone from American Idol but probably won’t go away, and what would a Thursday podcast be without my Jillian Michaels’ Clips of the Week, and trust me, she is in fine form this week.

Thanks for listening!

The Dude & The W.G.N.: Gov. Blago, Las Vegas, the PBA, Super Bowl, and Jillian Michaels’ Clips of the Week!

By:

The Dude on the Right

The W.G.N. is back from Sin City, that’s Las Vegas to the rest of you, and he doesn’t have a lot to say about it for this podcast, although he did get to meet some members of the PBA, and I’m not talking about the Policemen’s (or Patrolmen’s) Benevolent Association members on the east coast, I’m talking about members of the Professional Bowlers Association, which was having a tournament in Vegas, which I guess is more appropriate since The W.G.N. was in Vegas for a bowling tournament, but not the professional bowlers’ one. In any case, he seemed to have a good time, and I had a good time explaining the likes of how Governor, or rather just now, Rod Blagojevich, got booted out of office, how I wish a PETA commercial had better audio, and we both give our thoughts on who to root for during The Super Bowl.

I was a tad disappointed at the lack of The W.G.N.’s T.V. watching, but I suppose I’ll cut him some slack since he is trying to graduate college and get into law school and all, so, for his listening pleasure, I did enlighten him with my "Jillian Michaels’ Clips of the Week." The W.G.N., sadly, wasn’t inspired.

It was great to have him to chat with during this podcast, it’s always more fun to do a Podcast with someone, and who better than the World’s Greatest Nephew, even if he isn’t that much of a Bruce Springsteen fan!

Thanks for listening!

The Dude & The W.G.N.: A Haphazard Opening, Terrorist Geese, Las Vegas, American Idol, and More!

By:

The Dude on the Right

This podcast would have had a really entertaining start, especially with the return of The W.G.N. to the podcast airwaves, but since I’m a bonehead and didn’t hit the record button, well, things start kind of haphazardly. Luckily The W.G.N. gets a hold on things and steers me back into a direction of normalcy. Normalcy for this podcast turns into some small talk about Canadian Geese and airplane crashes, or happily an actual water landing in the case of the US Airways Flight 1549 landing on/in the Hudson River. But more normalcy develops with lots of talk about a trip to Las Vegas that The W.G.N. took, complete with some gambling winnings and losings, a non-visit to "Thunder From Down Under," and some gambling advice from The Dude.

The W.G.N. has some issues with a college final, we both watched "American Idol" (although he doesn’t admit to seeing Bikini Girl), he is surprised the outside temperature gauge on my car goes as low as it did, and with his spring schedule, well, The W.G.N. might be a pretty normal addition to the Thursday podcast, which, I’m sure, will be of great news to The Mystery Dude who doesn’t really like when I do solo podcasts, not to mention the legion of fans of The W.G.N.

It was great to do a podcast with The W.G.N. again, even if I did screw up the beginning, and hopefully this year will be filled with many more!

Thanks for listening!
