EPISODE 192 - Bored Games

from Who Asked You? · host Chasecom Media

For the third show in a row, there's at least 1 host missing. This time around it's Mike. Our pal John once again fills the empty seat of a co-host and does his best Mike impression in the process. I think when 1 of us is out, the conversation's timing gets thrown off. Despite having a fill-in, we're incapable of always filling the hour. We 5 have become a well oiled machine always delivering 60-minutes of chatter. But a wooden sabot shoe in the form of a missing man, a shitty segment or technical difficulties can be thrown into the gear works and you're left with something like today's show.In this case the sabotage is 'It's The Law'. What was once a popular segment on the show doesn't garner the conversation it used to. With only a few states to go, I feel obligated to finish before retiring the bit. This time we're looking at laws in Virginia. The state has some pretty strict guidelines you must abide by when getting' it on. There's only 1 position allowed, you have to do it in the dark and it's only aloud in 1 hole. More odd ordinances where those came from.'It's The Law' wasn't the only segment where not much was said. At the top of the show we took a moment to recap CES, which by most accounts was pretty ho-hum this year. No major game consoles were unveiled. Most of the flat panels were the same 3D, LED, LCD, or SOB units they've been bugging us to buy for 2 years now and the rest was pointless accessories for the iPad. So, not much to talk about there.The 'New Releases' would surely have something worth conversating over… nope. Most of this week's DVD's, none of us have heard of. And that's saying a lot, because our combined knowledge of obscure media is quite vast. I couldn't even get the guys to stretch on the subject of Andy Dick while I pulled up poll results I forgot to mark down on my paper. Can't blame them there though… what is there to say about Andy Dick?We learn that Steven Spielberg will NOT direct Jurassic Park 4. There's not a whole lot to be said there either. The CW is raiding the box full of DC comics for their next TV series. And they've asked the guys that did GREEN LANTERN to develop it. Yeah, because that movie was soooo great right?No wonder we blast through the rundown with 19-minutes to spare. In our 'Breaking News' segment we introduce you to a man arrested for drug possession who has one of the most ridiculous names ever. His first name is Beezow… and there's plenty more where that came from.Thank god for YouTube. It's where everyone goes these days to waste time. To kill the nearly 20-minutes of unplanned Ask-ness we do what we do best, remissness. And what better way to do so on, than old board games and their commercials. The show title is startin' to make sense now isn't it? I promise -- despite everything I've typed here -- this is not a 'bored' show.
