Intro – 11/20/13
- A Florida congressman is arrested. Even more shocking? Some Florida congressmen weren’t.
- Then controversy at the Winter Games. Someone finally said it: luge and bobsled are the same thing.
- And my guest tonight is M.I.A. Will somebody find her?! The show’s about to start!
- Amsterdam is paying alcoholics in beer to clean the streets. But you know they’re just gonna spend that beer on weed.
Ted Radel’s Cocaine Arrest
- Nation, the holidays are upon us. And I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for some twinkly lights, Frosty The Snowman and Walking in a Winter Wonderland.
- Speaking of snow; cocaine.
“Republican Trey Radel, of Florida, today pleaded guilty to cocaine possession.”
- Yes, this rising Tea Party star was caught in a coke bust. Apparently, he forgot the part of the Tea Party story, where you dump the product in the harbor before the cops show up.
- So, best of luck, Congressman. We will miss you and, of course … what’s that? He’s not resigning? What is he? High?!
Tip/Wag – Hopped-Up Pops, Starbucks & American Consumers
- Just seconds ago, I think I made it clear. I’m no fan of drug addicts. Just thinking about them makes me so angry, I need another Xanax.
- That’s why I was high – on life – when I learned about a new study from University of Pennsylvania that found: “A father’s cocaine use may make his sons less sensitive to the drug thereby more likely to resist addictive behaviors.” Which means, if you do not have a crippling cocaine addiction, be sure to thank your dad.
Tip: Hopped-Up Pops
- Congratulations. You have finally earned that Father of the Year mug you stole from The Hallmark Store after biting the cashier.
- So, the next time you see a dude doing a bump off a toilet seat at a strip club, just say to yourself, “That guy’s gonna make a great dad.”
- I am no fan of America’s global arch-nemesis and primary investor, China.
- They’re so smug with their surging economy, their wall visible from space and their seemingly endless supply of lucky numbers.
- Finally, American culture is striking back.
“Starbucks is facing scrutiny in China this week, because state media is accusing it of over-pricing. $4.50 for a medium-sized latte; roughly a third more than in The United States.”
- Speaking of China; I just was. And this week there was more bad news.
“Chinese shoppers set online sales records Monday. Shoppers clicked their way to more than $5 billion in products on China’s largest e-commerce site. That dwarfs sales on Cyber Monday in The United States.”
- Folks, if China has the cash to do this, we’re clearly not borrowing enough of it.
Wag: American Consumers
- How can you not out-spend these guys?
- Online shopping is much harder for the Chinese. After they buy an iPad, they have to run back to the factory to make it.
- Folks, I believe we need to take a lesson from China and harness the economic power of lonely single men.
- You guys need to step-up and start buying more stuff.
- I mean, look what you’re doing right now. You’re watching my show. On the couch, probably alone.
- Me? I go home every night and spend time with my loved ones.
“Daddy loves you Playstation 4. Do you love me back?”
Sport Report – The Winter Games and Russia’s Anti-Gay Pride
- Russia’s Olympics are in endangered by homosexuals who insist on existing during them.
- That’s why last June, Vladimir Putin signed a law banning all homosexual propaganda including public displays of affection or displaying symbols like a rainbow flag.
- Good thinking, because the visible spectrum has always had a gay agenda.
“… released a picture showing the official uniform for volunteers and staff; brightly colored ski jackets and caps featuring the Olympic Rings. Some people say the colors are very similar to the rainbow flag that symbolizes the LGBT movement.”
- Yes, by wearing these rainbow uniforms the Russians are leaving the gays with no protest symbol.
- As president of the Olympic Organizing Committee, Dmitry Chernyshenko, told USA Today:
- Yeah, we took your rainbow! Suck it, gays! Just don’t do it in Russia.
Interview – M.I.A.
Stephen: Your last name?
MIA: Arulpragasam.
Stephen: Is that your real name? Because a lot women fake the Arulpragasam.
Stephen: I’ve got a problem with you. Okay? Are you ready for this? How come you have politics in your music? Okay? It’s dance music. Just let me get up there and shake it. Like do I have to like dance and think about like the Kumuthini Boat Massacre of 1985? Why can’t you just sing about “lovely lady lumps” or “bubble yum bums?”
MIA: Someone had already written it.
Stephen: It’s politics with fun.
MIA: Actually I was really inspired by a lot of American artists, like Bob Dylan. You know, Public Enemy. So, about the time, you know, I put out my first song and came to America, I thought you guys were used to it already. I didn’t realize it was so shocking.
