EPISODE 249 - Destiny's Chiiiii-ld
from Who Asked You? · host Chasecom Media
We are back in full! An entire hour of Who Asked You? as nature intended is just one play button click away. As I noted last week, the show was 42-seconds short. I still haven't figured out how or why that happened. But it seems to be a one-off anomaly, so we'll just leave it at that.This is another energetic show. I finally got the chance to unveil our STAR TREK-themed open. I'd been holding onto it, waiting for the perfect time to debut it. And this week was it! I went to a Fathom Event last Thursday featuring a screening of the most famous of TNG episodes, "The Best of Both Worlds". In celebration of the series being remastered on Blu-ray they re-edited the two-parter into a feature length film and presented it along with a behind-the-scenes documentary and a blooper reel. I knew I'd be flapping my jaw about it on the show, so I made a few notes - good and bad - as I watched the stunning HD version of my all-time favorite TV show and I share them today.And we're pleased to inform you all that Twinkies WILL be back. We were certain they would be. Such an iconic brand will not go quietly into the night. In early March, Hostess was purchased by Apollo Global Management and Metropoulos & Company. They paid $410-million... that's a lotta dough for some dough. The new owners also own Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and Vlasic Pickles. Lets hope Twinkies don't go hipster, or they come out with cream filled pickles. Although, there may be an untapped market of pregnant ladies that would be all over that... the pickles, not the beer. Anyway, Hostess plans to reopen its Kansas bakery along with those in Georgia, Indiana and Illinois. They hope to have the flagship junk food back on store shelves by July.Gwyneth Paltrow has been named People Magazine's most beautiful woman of 2013. As you can imagine, this drums up quite a bit of discussion on the show. We love lists and the ladies, and we love picking shit apart when we don't agree with it. This is one of those times. We're confused as to what the qualifications are for this list. Who decides who goes on it? My guess is a late night staff meeting at People headquarters fueled by room temperature coffee and mediocre Chinese takeout makes up the panel of judges. This leads to a question of who else is on this list.While Dennis works to find said list, we move on to news that Nintendo is releasing a sequel to THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: A LINK TO THE PAST. Now for those of you who grew up on a Super Nintendo, you know this game. In my opinion, it is the best Zelda game out there. Full disclosure, I've only played two others and that new Zelda mini-game that comes with the Wii U. The game will be available on the 3DS and will take full advantage of the stereoscopic screen sure to blur your vision or make you barf all over your couch. This story gets very little commentary as Dennis reverts back to the People Magazine one after finding the top-10 list online. On the list is Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child. Charlie evidently had never seen her and seemed quite smitten with her.Sad news from Comedy Central. They've decided not to renew FUTURAMA for another season. Apparently they'd rather use that chunk of the budget for their other quality programming like, THE JESELNIK OFFENSIVE. Creator Matt Groening and David X. Cohen the executive producer seem cool with the cancellation. They're just happy the show was revived for a few more seasons. And Groening holds out some hope. They plan to shop the show around to other channels.And that's perfect because FX is in the market for new animated shows. They're owned by Fox just like FUTURAMA so it's a natural fit! I guess we'll see what happens. FX does have a new animated show produced by Seth Rogen on the way. It's based on Bigfoot's memoirs. Yep, you read that right. Tune-in for the details!Finally, last week we talked about Fundawear, the vibrating underwear you can control from your iPhone. Now we've got another company making women's underwear for men. Yep, you read that right too. HommeMystere thinks there's a market for men who want to wear ladies lingerie. And they're right. The website, available in the Show Links, is bizarre to say the least. The teddies and panties and G-Strings are very feminine looking coming with lace trim and in colors like purple and pink, but scroll down and you'll notice they've been tailored to 'accommodate' a man. The site is full of images of male models nonchalantly posing in the nighties and also has a promotional video where a man puts one on under his normal clothes and even stands next to his girlfriend where they compare their panties in the mirror. This raises a lot of questions, but there's only time for one on this show... who has ever tried on the opposite sex's underwear? Guess who in our group has done this? If you've got a funny story relating to this that you'd like to share, send us an E-Mail.
