Free Beer & Hot Wings

This morning on the show, the Thursday role reversals continued. Free Beer took on a contestant in a special edition of Dumber Than Free Beer Trivia, and Producer Joe handled the commentary duties that Hot Wings normally takes care of.

This morning on the show, Free Beer & Hot Wings talked to comedian, actor and author Jim Gaffigan!  Jim has a new show on Wednesday nights on TV Land, "The Jim Gaffigan Show", with reruns airing on Thursday nights on Comedy Central. Jim talked about his process of writing a TV show with his writing partner: his wife!  We also blamed him for the Dukes of Hazzard being taken off TV Lan

About a year ago, our old, dingy studio was ripped apart and we moved into a fancy new studio with fancy new equipment. The centerpiece of the new studio was a new audio board that cost about a billion dollars and has a thousand or so buttons. Basically, it's the last place in the world that you'd want to spill a cup of coffee. On Friday morning, Zane did just that.

We've been fortunate to throw out the first pitch at baseball games on a number of occasions. This is the first time we've all done it together. And it went... well... it went.

Since the arrival of his twins about 10 days ago, Free Beer has noticed that there doesn't seem to be much variety in "Congrats on your twins!" greeting cards. Check out a sampling of some of the cards that have shown up to the Free Beer household recently.

With Free Beer out this week for the birth of his twins, everyone's role is a bit different on the show for a couple of days. Steve has been running the board all week, which is something that Free Beer usually handles. The other day, though, Zane decided that it was his moment to shine. He wanted to go back to his Joe and the Poorboy roots and run the board. So, we'll see how long this lasts. Rea

On the show this morning, we talked to Kyle (formerly known as Wiener 2 when he was an intern) about his interning experience. We reminisced about the time that he and Wiener 1 had to compete in the Wiener Challenge, in which Producer Joe threw hot dogs and baked beans at them off of a parking garage. To top it off, the dogs were dipped in a ketchup/mustard/relish slop sauce.  Why did we do this?

On the show this morning, Zane was telling us about how his son, Jim, wants to get a tattoo of his son's name on his forearm. Zane was trying to talk him out of it, saying that people would judge him down the road and that he may not get a job because of the tattoo placement. Now, this struck all of us as funny because of, well, how ridiculous Zane's tattoo is.

We were once again joined in studio Friday morning by comedian hypnotist Rich Guzzi. Rich joined us once in Nashville a few years ago, as well as in our studio when he famously hypnotized our former intern Butthead Lautner. This time around, interns Stephen and Brandon were the lucky ones.

Free Beer & Hot Wings were joined in the studio by actor and comedian Tim Meadows Friday morning. Tim spent 10 years on 'Saturday Night Live' and is now on the NBC sitcom 'Marry Me'. He has some shows this weekend at Dr. Grins Comedy Club in Grand Rapids, so he decided to stop by for a visit. .

So... none of us have been on the dating scene in a while, so maybe we don't get the nuances of online dating. But, we're pretty sure that our former intern is doing it wrong. An anonymous tipster sent in these screenshots taken while browsing her matches on Match.com. That's former intern Loser Ben's profile.
