Danny Bonaduce Show 1/30/09
6:02 – Danny’s girlfriend, Amy, found a great picture of a food football stadium. It’s got calorie counts too. 24,375 calories. When Danny got the e-mail the thought he was getting yelled at. Lately she’s had a mean streak late at night. Maybe Danny brings out the fangs. Last night Danny was reading a newspaper while Amy was cuddling with her and she flipped out that he was ignoring her while she was watching television. If Danny brings up the idea of breaking up she’s going to break his nose again. If she doesn’t want him to go, he’s not going. Danny wanted to take a walk, get a drink and cool down, but she wouldn’t let him leave. This is bizarre behavior for her. Normally she’s calm, cool, collected and easy to get along with. Shila, being a female, tries to rationalize Amy’s behavior and thinks that there could be some issues building up. Danny doesn’t feel any relationship pressure building up; things have gone from 0-60 in seconds. Danny hates it, but moving to a new town is not easy. Danny feels like he’s in a Praying Mantis relationship.
6:28 – Randy calls in to say that he’s a prisoner in his own home. He’s got three girls and a wife. His days are filled with Dora the Explorer. He was a bit of a ladies’ man in his youth and now the karma trained pulled in. Steve is new to town and wants to drink some vodka with Danny. Pete has had a rough year and never had a Superbowl party. He lost his job, lost his wife and heart attack. What a fun guy! Sue is as boring a wet blanket; she’s just interested in the television. Travis is a boxer and wants to hang with Danny. Stephanie doesn’t want the party at her house; she wants Danny to show up at the Coatesville Fire Department, tugging at the heart strings.
6:52 – Danny’s fascinated by the Superbowl prop bets, including Springsteen’s set list for the halftime show.

• Bruce Springsteen: 3/1
• Clarence Clemons: 4/1

Would Courtney Cox come up on stage to join Bruce for ‘Dancing in the Dark’? What are the odds on that?
7:11 – News with Shila:
Officer Chris Jones, a 10-year veteran of the Middletown Township Police Department, died of head injuries early yesterday afternoon after a chain-reaction crash pushed his parked cruiser on top of him, authorities said.
Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich, accused by federal prosecutors of trying to sell President Barack Obama’s former U.S. Senate seat, was removed from office after the Illinois senate unanimously convicted him of abuse of power. A two-thirds vote of the 59-member body was required on the one article of impeachment. In a speech yesterday at the state capitol in Springfield, Blagojevich, the 40th governor of Illinois, told lawmakers he never “intended to violate any law” and that his conviction would set a “dangerous precedent.”
The woman who gave birth to octuplets this week has six other children and never expected to have eight more when she took fertility treatment, her mother said.
As investigators search for suspects in the arson spree that is terrorizing Coatesville, members of the Guardian Angels are now patrolling the city's streets. Residents are thankful for the extra manpower as the intense manhunt continues for a possible serial arsonist. Investigators are probing at least 15 arson fires in the month of January alone, including one that damaged 15 row homes on January 24.
7:35 – Forgiveness Friday with Brother Bonaduce!
Gerald got married at 19 and put Ben Gay on his unit on the suggestion of a friend and all hell broke loose. The first sin of stupidity was getting married that young. Danny had a bad experience with Ben Gay and his thighs when getting ready for a martial arts tournament.
Joe has a heavy heart. He’s engaged to the girl of his dreams and relapsed on his opiate addiction and she left him. Relapse is expected. There’s only a 4-6% success rate when going to rehab. He’s five days clean now and Brother Bonaduce understands. The fact that she walked out on him in his time of need is unforgivable. Joe needs a woman of his reality, not of his dreams.
Scott worked at a catering company with a woman when he was younger, bought weed off her husband and then had an affair with the woman. There are three sinners. Scott who slept with a married woman, the husband who was selling illegal marijuana, and the woman who cheated on her husband making her a liar. Scott told the husband.
Chad fooled around on his wife a few years ago and she left him. They got back together. Danny thinks they’re fine. If he can re-marry a woman who divorced him everything’s going to be okay. If she took half his stuff the first time, she’s going to do it again if they divorce so he’ll have a quarter of his stuff.
7:57 – A blindfolded Shila throws a dart to get a winner for Sunday’s party. She fails and can’t connect to the board; Danny nails it on his first shot. The winner is…Joe from the Northeast. He’ll have Danny, Shila, and Metro at his house for the Big Game, some Slack’s hoagies, and a 50” flat screen television. He’s the guy with the Winnebago that he uses for tailgating at Eagles games.
8:10 – Entertainment News:
Bruce Springsteen walked into a packed banquet room in the Tampa Convention Center yesterday afternoon and had an announcement. "If there's going to be a lot of questions about football, this is going to be the shortest press conference ever," said the New Jersey native, who will perform with the rest of the E Street Band at halftime of Sunday's Super Bowl. "Because I don't know anything about it."
U2, Kid Rock, Rihanna and Robert Plant and Alison Krauss have joined the performance lineup for the 51st Grammy Awards. The annual recording industry event takes place February 8 at Los Angeles' Staples Center and will be broadcast live on CBS. Danny likes Dave Grohl, but Dave doesn’t like Danny. Gretchen, his ex-wife wrote some Foo Fighters lyrics on a mirror and gave her crap for it and when Grohl saw it he thought Danny was taking a shot at him, not Gretchen’s unemotional attempt at romance.
Reports are that Hogan is in talks to make an appearance at the Florida State Fair. Apparently the deal is "90 percent done." Brooke will be showing up with her camera crews to film for her reality show, Brooke Knows Best. While at the fair, she is "due to wrestle" Rick Flair's son in the circus tent after the last show of the day. The event will be filmed next Friday.
Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer have reportedly ended their on/off relationship for good, after the rocker was allegedly spotted kissing another woman. The couple has been at the center of growing speculation about the state of their relationship in recent weeks, with internet gossips publishing conflicting reports over whether they have in fact split.
A ‘Scrubs’ producer had nothing good to say about Tara Reid who appeared on the show as guest star last year. She was tough to work with because she reeked of cheap vodka. She and Danny would be two peas in a pod. Danny did a few episodes of CSI and Sean Young played his wife. She smelled awful.
8:49 – MC Hammer checks in from Tampa, he’s going to the Superbowl and he’s going to be in a Superbowl commercial. Maybe if he didn’t spend so much on Superbowl tickets his house wouldn’t have been repossessed. Hammer’s been a minister for 20 years and never hid his love for Christ. Being down in Tampa for the game with a town full of strip clubs is he tempted? He’s tempted every day. Hammer’s going to be in a Superbowl commercial with Ed McMahon for ‘Cash for Gold’. Their history with money problems puts a special spin on the spots. Hammer doesn’t care who wins, he just wants a good game.
8:57 – Penthouse Pet of the Year Taya Parker checks in from the Penthouse Superbowl party. She’s extremely proud of her photo with Danny in the latest issue of Penthouse. She’s a huge Steelers fan and she’s fired up to wave her terrible towel, but she’s not so good at spotting celebrities. She does get star struck and it blows her away when people are giddy to meet her. Taya’s also on the new season of Rock of Love. She’s got a crush on Danny. If he goes to see her in New York she’d go on a date with him. She’s looking for love on the wrong bus. Danny’s got lots of bus experience growing up on the Partridge Family. Danny feels that every man listening would be rooting for him to nail Taya, even if he has a steady girlfriend.
9:10 – News with Shila:
President Obama signed a new equal pay bill yesterday ending decades-long pay discrepancies between men and women. The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act amends the 1964 Civil Rights Act and also applies to discrimination based on race, religion, national origin, disability or age. Previously employees had only 180 days to file pay-discrimination lawsuits and are expected to make it easier for workers to sue for decades-long discrimination.
Former Phillies star Lenny Dykstra earned the nickname "Nails" for his tough and aggressive playing style. But four men have a new nickname for him: Deadbeat. According to a lawsuit filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, Dykstra has yet to fork over the cash he promised to pay four pilots in exchange for flying his private plane. Dykstra had until January 12 to pay up, the lawsuit says, but thus far he hasn't. What's more, the four pilots claim Dykstra promised them a four-month gig, but didn't deliver on that either.
A woman named Amy Borowski has been trying to raise money for her own Super Bowl ad so that she can market herself in front of as many men as possible. Anyway, Borowski is trying to raise the $3 million needed for a 30-second spot. The only problem is, with two days to go, she's a little bit short ... about $2,993,795 short (she's raised $6,205). She's hoping that a corporate sponsor might come through and help her at the last minute. Good luck to her.
9:27 – Danny likes Country music lyrics, but doesn’t like old Country music. Hot Country is cool to listen to when he catches a cool tune. Danny’s girlfriend is at the station and he’s curious what to do about the Taya Parker situation. Should he ask permission to close the deal with Taya. Danny believes he should go out with her, but stay faithful.
Danny asks Amy if he can seal the deal with her permission. What does Amy get out of it? If Taya invited both of them she would have considered it. What would it cost Danny to get a green light for one night? She would have lifelong pass to be as bad as she wants to bad. Danny’s willing to give her three ‘get out of jail’ cards.
Steve calls in to ask if Amy has sisters that are available. Two of them! Danny’s asked to marry Amy before. Shila’s amazed that Amy is open minded enough to consider Danny’s request. Metro would take one for the team, would that be an even trade? She’s up for it.
9:51 – Shila thinks that Metro for Taya Parker is not a fair trade. Calls have been coming in from listeners offering themselves to Amy.
9:56 – Danny’s Final Thought: When you have something you have to take time to smell the roses, you have to take time to appreciate what you have. As you’ve heard I may possibly have one of the best girlfriends in the world and I think you can say it best in a song. If she says yes to this proposition with Taya Parker, I think Dean Martin said it best...
Once in love with Amy
Always in love with Amy
- Dean Martin
Of course if she says no, I think Guns n’ Roses said it best…
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her, Mm, yeah
But I had to kill her
- Axl Rose
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/29/09
6:01 – Danny was back on the smoking bandwagon, but his teeth have been hurting. Danny thinks he damaged his uvula when starting back and up wants to quit smoking for his health this time. The sickness he thought was coming on was really from going back to smoking. Danny’s in a fight with a boss he thinks is wrong so what does he do? Danny wants to work, needs to work in this economy. Danny can’t get into details but there was a huge confrontation last night. This week got in Penthouse and was mentioned on the Tonight Show. Shila thinks that Danny has to let the boss be right on this.
Jason calls in to agree with Shila. Other gigs will come around, but tough it out and prove the boss wrong. Sean calls in to ask about other offers he passed up. Satellite radio doesn’t allow you to track ratings, which Danny finds as a drawback when working in radio. Dave takes exception to the way Danny opens his life to listeners. Danny also discussed Superbowl party strategy with some of the station shot callers. If he, Shila, and Metro show up an hour before the game everyone can relax and watch the game on the huge 50” flat screen TV that they’re gifting to one Danny Bonaduce Show listener.
6:30 – Danny takes call from people that want to get qualified for the ‘Where We Watchin’?! Big Game Party.’ Juanita is the first caller and she’s rambling about nicknames and lets it fly that a guy she dated for six years is married to her sister. Billy’s idea is to watch the ‘Big Game’ in a trailer park. Michelle wants the show to surprise her son who’s in the Air Force. Jim is under house arrest and can’t drink, which Danny finds intriguing. Shila knows a few ways to circumvent house arrest ankle bracelets so you can drink while wearing one. Another Jim has a HD box with no HD-TV. Danny has a theory about Heathers being really hot; the one on the line thinks she’s good looking too. She’s got lots of stripper friends and her roommate is on probation. Ron has three reasons: Grey Goose, Stoli, and Belvedere. Shila thinks that Superbowl Sunday is for beer, not liquor. Shila can drink beer, Danny’s going to drink vodka and watch the 50” HD-TV get blurry.
6:50 – There’s a Superbowl halftime curse. There’s a well known Academy Awards Best Actess curse that’s affected Marissa Tomei, Nicole Kidman, and Holly Hunter. Gloria Estefan and Brian Boitano performed together and later on she got into a bad bus accident and Boitano came home without any medals from the winter Olympics. Boyz II Men dropped off the face of the earth after their appearance. Diana Ross had a DUI bust and an awkward moment of breast slapping Lil’ Kim.
7:34 – Who’d Win in a Fight? Jack Bauer from 24 vs. MacGyver
The fight is taking place in a kick ass warehouse. Danny thinks Metro’s a fool for going with MacGyver. Shila has 150 reasons for going with Jack Bauer. He’s a mean man who bites people’s throats and is an anti-terrorist assassin. MacGyver can make booby traps, but Jack has the ability stone cold kill people while having a conversation with them. Josh goes with Jack Bauer because he took a year of Chinese torture and still had the hunger to kill. Jerry goes with MacGyver because of ingenuity and his ability to escape danger. Justin thinks Chuck Norris would destroy them both. Not an option.
7:51 – Danny and Metro had a long argument about where the fight was taking place before they agreed on the empty warehouse. Chip takes MacGyver because of his smarts and can wait for a day and take up Bauer’s 24 hours. MacGyver never killed anyone preferring non-violent resolution, but Bauer has no issue snuffing anyone out. Rastaman says it’s going to be a tie in honor of the Eagles’ season. Nick picks Mr. T. Bill goes with Jack Bauer who would kill MacGyver just to bring him back to life and tortured him. That’s hardcore. Eric brings up the fact that Bauer has the ability to hide from government agencies, so hiding from MacGyver would be no issue. Bauer’s the big winner today according to phone calls and text votes.
8:09 – Entertainment News:
Lynyrd Skynyrd keyboard player Billy Powell has died at the age of 56 of a suspected heart attack in Florida. Powell, who played on hits including Sweet Home Alabama, called police saying he was having trouble breathing.

Joaquin Phoenix's publicist has fired back at reports the actor's rap career is all part of a prank, insisting the Walk the Line star really has big music plans. Pals close to the star told EW.com earlier this week that Phoenix's recent shambolic performance in a Las Vegas nightclub, which was caught on film by brother-in-law Casey Affleck, was all part of an elaborate "art project" hoax.
Tony Romo reportedly visited Hollywood hotspot My House on January 16 - hours after the 28-year-old singer has flown out of Los Angeles - and then invited a group of people back to the home he shares with Jessica. A source told America's Star magazine: "Everyone was talking about it downstairs. The girls were saying it was so wrong and shady of Tony to cheat on Jessica - especially in her place! I just can't believe he would hook up with another woman at his own girlfriend's house." All men want strange, no matter who they’re dating.
Sources say the long-stalled movie version of the 1980s television series 'The A-Team' has been revived again, this time at Fox with "Smokin' Aces" director Joe Carnahan behind the camera. No details have emerged as to the film's plot, though "G.I. Joe" writer Skip Woods gets credit for the script. A tentative release date has been set for 2010. The A-Team can hide from the government, but somehow single mothers in need of help have no issue tracking them down.
8:35 – Danny had an expensive habit of overspending for status symbols, buying expensive cars and joining numerous gyms. He trimmed back when he started going to church on a regular basis and calmed down on the extravagance. Danny loves cars. And sex. So he wants to talk about sex in cars. Metro planned out a video rental virginity loss in his mom’s truck. Danny’s favorite sound is hearing a woman’s jeans unbutton. It’s like entrance into heaven.
Danny’s girlfriend Amy had a painful experience in a pickup truck bumping her head on the door handle and now he laughs when he finds himself in a similar position. Danny and Metro have the same underwear that were bought by their girlfriend for them before they met. Danny’s first time in a car was with a girl named Penny in a Firebird at a drive-in theater. He went back for seconds and she yelled at him.
Shila never had sex in a car, but she did try to take care of a guy in her dad’s Jeep Grand Cherokee but she didn’t like the way he was holding her head. She was taken care of in a van that looked like the Scooby Doo van.
8:58 – Danny takes call from people that want to get qualified for the ‘Where We Watchin’?! Big Game Party.’ Heidi Slacks from Slack’s Hoagie Shack is in the studio to talk about their friggin’ huge hoagies. Danny, Shila, and Metro will be bringing a huge tray of Slack’s hoagies and a 50” flat screen television that they’ll leave at the house. Bob only has three days of a year off and one of them is Superbowl Sunday. He also doesn’t a TV. Mike’s wife is going to have a baby on Superbowl Sunday, is he god? Danny could deliver sandwiches, a television and a baby?! Nice. Mike would like to show his ex-wife who lives a few blocks away. Debbie has strippers showing up? Tony wants a huge new TV so he can watch porn in HD. Danny feels his pain because he has to watch porn on his laptop.
9:12 – News with Shila:

In a swift victory for President Barack Obama, the Democratic-controlled House approved a historically huge $819 billion stimulus bill Wednesday night with spending increases and tax cuts at the heart of the young administration's plan to revive a badly ailing economy. The vote was 244-188, with Republicans unanimous in opposition despite Obama's frequent pleas for bipartisan support.
Spirit Airlines flight attendants and pilots want the company to pull a series of sexually suggestive ads, along with a new requirement that they wear a Bud Light patch on service aprons. Patricia Friend, head of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, complained in a letter to Spirit executives this month. The airline refused to change the ads and aprons. Some of Spirit’s ads invite customers to enjoy its DDs (deep discounts) and "MILF" (many islands, low fare) specials, double-entendres that also refer to large breasts and a crude acronym that describes an attractive mother.
A Florida man got a side of assault with his calzone when he was pistol-whipped by a pizzeria owner after complaining about his order, the Daytona Beach News-Journal reported. Richard Finney and his roommate were having a cookout at their Palm Coast home on Friday night but the roommate's 11-year-old daughter didn't like what was on the menu, the News-Journal reported, So the pair ordered her a calzone from Goomba's Pizzeria with no sauce and no feta cheese. But when they discovered that the calzone had both, they went back to the pizzeria to complain, and that's when it got ugly.
9:33 – Paul McCartney was on The Colbert Report last night and Danny loved it.
Danny wanted to use a clip of a Green Day song in ‘Breaking Bonaduce’ and they wanted to charge him $80,000 which is not that expensive in the world of music licensing. Microsoft spent $14 million for ‘Start Me Up.’
9:55 – Danny's Final Thought: If I’m ever kidding around on the radio and accidentally hurt anyone’s feelings, you need to know that I was kidding and here’s my proof:
"Disgraced baseball players Jose Canseco fought former child star Danny Bonaduce this past weekend in a celebrity boxing match. It was a tie. So just like in real life they were both losers."
– Jay Leno 1/27/09
I’ve done the Tonight Show seven times. Each time promoting another successful television show. A good buddy of yours will kill you for a punch line. We’re only kidding!
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/28/09
6:01 – Shila is wet today. Her fuzzy orange jogging suit got very wet on the way to work today. Danny digs it because it reminds him of Japanese weather-adapting clothing. Danny’s got a metallic taste in his mouth because of the weather. To get the icky taste out of his mouth he made some coffee today but forgot that creamer doesn’t cool coffee down like milk does, so his mouth is a little burnt today. The snow was so fresh this morning Danny and Shila felt like they were the only ones alive in the city. Every footprint made Danny think of being like the first man on the moon, with cute cowboy boots. Shila had a bad accident in college getting third degree burns from a coffee explosion. Danny’s freckles on his shoulder melted because of a burn too. It’s time for Scar Search!!! Shila has a scar over her right eye from a car accident. Danny had his cheek rebuilt and his bottom lip taken care of by a plastic surgeon after a dog bite. Danny has lots of metal in his body, the gunshot wounds, a stabbing; a motorcycle peg went through his leg, scars on the tops of his feet from electrocution, a sack scar. Shila has scars on her cheek from her car accident and another scar on her head that’s tough to see because of her luscious black hair. Who’s the winner?
Shila doesn’t like the scar on her face, but Danny finds it attractive. She went through three surgeries to repair it, but Danny thinks it’s unique.
6:33 – Yesterday Danny was a little sore from the Canseco fight, but for 49 he’s feeling healthy. There are reports that redheads will become extinct according to the Smithsonian Institute. Life hasn’t been easy for redheads. They used to be burned at the stake and Danny was once the redheaded stepchild.
Danny’s in a few Smithsonian exhibits. One’s a board game and the other is a lunchbox from the Partridge Family. He’s also in the new issue of Penthouse, there’s a photo of Danny getting a lap dance from Taya Parker. Penthouse put a call in to Danny letting him know that Taya is going to be in New York soon and wants to see Danny. He got in a lot of trouble with his girlfriend Amy when Taya gave him her phone number even though he threw it out.
6:55 – Danny’s Horrible Hollywood Moment:
Mark from Willingboro wants to hear Danny’s story about Ace Frehley.
Danny has lots of Gene Simmons stories. Danny’s at a 12 step meeting and he likes to go to the hardcore meetings because they offer more reality and hard hitting. Danny was hanging out with a really tall stripper named Wendy and her drug war stories were mesmerizing. One night they’re at the Rainbow in Los Angeles when Ace walks by, says ‘hi’ to Danny and then gets into Wendy’s face and tells her off. It turns out she wrote a book about Ace that told every bad story about him. Gene and Paul low balled him for tours and did lots of drugs to make up for it.
7:09 – News with Shila:
Today's storm is changing to rain in areas near Philadelphia, but outlying regions still report potentially bad driving conditions.

Cheese restaurant over the weekend was reunited with her family, who didn’t notice the girl was missing until they saw her picture on the morning news. Relatives of Deshawna Tyson told police that the girl was one of nine children driven to the Bel Air restaurant Sunday in separate cars driven by her aunt and her aunt’s boyfriend, The Baltimore Examiner reported. When the family arrived home, the children went straight to bed without noticing Deshawna was missing. Danny only misplaced one of his children once. He thought she disappeared at the airport, but she was really with her mother around the corner. It was an emotional tear-filled reunion.
7:35 – Danny took Willie Aames out to dinner a while ago and it was the first meal in years that Willie didn’t kill himself. When acting didn’t work out for Willie he would kill wildlife for food and use the furs and live off the land, curing meat in his garage and tanning hides in his lawn. Willie got a job as a technical advisor on a hunting show and once killed a bear with a stick. Danny saved Willie during a bad time. Danny put Willie up at his sweet condo in L.A. and was then surprised to read that Willie had a suicide attempt after drinking some whiskey. Danny doesn’t own a bottle of whiskey, so maybe the attempt didn’t happen at his place, but Willie Aames did try to slit his throat three times. Willie aims badly…Danny doesn’t.
7:54 – Danny takes calls to qualify people who want him to come over for the Superbowl. Lots of calls from men whose wives left them. Danny had to give a pep talk to the man who’s living with his wife and spending lots of time with Danny’s kids who are giving him a little attitude. Danny takes more calls, some offering lesbian action during halftime. We have a frontrunner!
8:14 – Entertainment News:

PETA's ad featuring near-naked women, vegetables and the slogan "vegetarians have better sex" has been pulled from NBC's Superbowl coverage. NBC is happy to run the spot, provided it makes 8 edits in the 30-second spot. In other words, lose all the vegetables.
Donny Osmond, apparently following in his sister's footsteps, announced in a taping of “The Bonnie Hunt Show” that he is seriously considering doing it. “I guess I just let the cat out of the bag,” he said. Donny never got over losing to Danny in a celebrity boxing match. Osmond was winning because Danny wasn’t taking it seriously until the third round and landed a punch that bloodied Osmond’s nose. Danny has been offered spots on Dancing with the Stars, but he’s got too much other work to take care of.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship is planning to go toe-to-toe with the country's biggest fitness club chains, and the founder of 24 Hour Fitness is in its corner. UFC Gym officials said they are close to breaking ground on the first of five health clubs planned in California, and plan to build more such gyms across the country and in Canada. UFC announcer Joe Rogan is an accomplished martial arts expert and has turned down offers to fight Danny so knowing this Danny will sometimes challenge Rogan.
Jessica Alba is setting the record straight: Sweden was neutral during World War II. Alba and Fox TV show host Bill O’Reilly traded punches last week after the presidential inauguration. After Alba told a Fox reporter that O’Reilly was “kind of an a-hole;” he retaliated by calling her a “pinhead” for telling a reporter to “be Sweden about it,” assuming she meant Switzerland.
Kiefer Sutherland was stunned to discover his friends had hired a male stripper for his birthday. The '24' actor, whose pals threw him a surprise 42nd birthday party recently, failed to realize the scantily-clad sexy blonde giving him a lap dance wasn't a woman - until the stripper removed his wig. Danny thinks that not a funny joke. He’s partied with Kiefer quite a bit and has some ridiculous photos of their good times together.
8:37 – Danny loves real estate and it’s a hobby of his and one thing he’s learned from experience is that you can’t always predict what your neighbors will do. Shila was looking through her window across her courtyard and saw a guy lying down in his bed in his underwear. She looked again and saw the guy ‘mastering her domain.’ Shila watched for a while and then invited her girlfriend over to see if he did it two nights later. When Danny was growing up his next door neighbors would wear crazy hats to dinner. Sombreros, fez’s, motorcycle helmets, and beanies while chowing down at the table. It’s time to Narc on Your Neighbor!
9:13 – Tommy Morrison is on the show, he was in Rocky V. So was Danny. Rocky V is the only Rocky movie didn’t like. Tommy is returning to professional boxing. His fight will be on the internet network that carried Danny’s fight with Canseco, but Danny thinks the company is incorrect with the number of pay-per views that were ordered. Tommy’s got a vicious left hook that can break bricks. Danny remembers seeing the fight that was called off because it was reported that Tommy tested HIV. He’s clean and thinks the test was an honest mistake that took him out of the ring for 12 years of his life. It changed the way he lived, everyone was scared of him. Though he tested negative recently, but took the doctor’s word for gospel and had a tough time dealing with the death sentence he thought he was handed. He’s done some MMA, but thinks it’s going to be shut down soon because of the dangers. Tommy doesn’t think that people rolling around on the ground is entertaining and they can’t throw good punches. Danny brings up that fewer punches to the head and more grappling reduces brain damage.
9:30 – Danny takes for qualifying calls from people who want the show to come over on Sunday for the big game.
Tony’s feeling the effects of the economy so much so that he had to get a job. Oh man! Danny and the rest of the show will be going to someone’s home with a huge 50” flat screen TV and hoagies from Slack’s and they’ll leave the TV there.
9:41 – Bonnie needs a new TV. George wants Danny’s autograph on his bass, Danny’s never played one. Joe is a huge WYSP fan. Kim is having an all girl’s party and one of her friends is tall, blonde, and going through a divorce. Joe would love to pick up Danny in his 1972 Winnebago made for tailgating at Eagles games. Jack is stuck watching the game with his five kids while his wife works. Nightmare from hell! Danny understands.
9:54 – Danny’s Final Thought: I talked to Tommy Morrison today. I feel awful for the guy, but I just want to let you know this: He was once diagnosed with HIV if you ever go to a fight sponsored by GoFightHIV, don’t sit in the first three rows.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/27/09
6:02 – Danny doesn’t get sick, but a decongestant and some blood thinner would be nice. Danny did get his nose broke Saturday night. There’s a small leak at night. Danny’s had bad headaches and wakes himself up choking on his own blood in the middle of the night. He also talked to Canseco last night and we’ll hear that conversation later in the week. Danny really likes Jose now. Danny’s joints ache now from hitting the immovable object known as Canseco. Is this what it’s like to be sick or is this what it’s like to get old? Maybe he just got his ass kicked. He’s never had the flu, but he did have pneumonia for two months without knowing and woke up in a hospital with doctors freaking out over him. Danny’s also had some memory issues lately. He might not make it to the Superbowl. Danny also might have gotten Jose a job yesterday.
Jason calls in to ask what the real Jose Canseco is like. Danny’s heard nothing good about him, but he likes the dude. Danny never gave up any sources or named names when he was in trouble and worries that if he reads any of Canseco’s books his opinion will change. Would Danny ever name names for money? YES! It was Shila that sold him the ‘roids!
6:20 – Jamie is on the line, his wife is a stripper and he sent some photos to Danny. He wrote Danny that her work is causing problems. Guys are starting to drop by the house at odd hours. He’s a prime candidate for Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach at 7:30!
6:33 – We’ve got good teams in Philly, but what team has the better looking cheerleaders, the Eagles or the Sixers? Danny came across this article and it piqued his interest.
Shila was a dancer in HS and college and thinks the Sixers Dancers have more difficult routines. The Eagles Cheerleaders calendar is much hotter than the Sixers Dancers calendars. They’re ALL hot chicks. What could we do on the show to settle this for good without hurting feelings?
Matt, a Steelers fan is jealous because his team doesn’t have cheerleaders. All the women in Western Pennsylvania look like men.
6:49 – Lee is friends with an Eagles Cheerleader and thinks she’s a nice girl and it’s the uniform that makes the girl royalty because the Eagles hold more esteem in this city than the Sixers.
JP has an idea for a contest: I’m Not Smarter Than Danny Bonaduce. He’s a collection of useless knowledge, but it would be too easy to beat him. PJ from Allentown wants to have a Jell-O wrestling contest, not likely. Steve’s idea is to get them to play Twister. NICE!

Several minor injuries were reported after a crash involving a SEPTA Regional Rail train in North Philadelphia early Tuesday morning.

Authorities in Coatesville confirm they’ve interviewed persons of interest in connection with more than a dozen arson fires that have hit this community since the beginning of the year, but as of Tuesday morning there were no arrests.

The Illinois state Senate on Monday began its impeachment trial against Gov. Rod Blagojevich without the governor present. He is facing federal corruption allegations; including trying to trade or sell the Senate seat that became vacant after Barack Obama was elected president. The second-term Democratic governor has denied wrongdoing. Instead of attending the trial, Blagojevich hit the media circuit Monday. He appeared on ABC's "Good Morning America" and "The View," and was scheduled to give his first live prime-time interview Monday night on CNN's "Larry King Live."
The Lehigh County coroner says the death of a 12-year-old boy killed by a school bus is a homicide. Northampton School District Superintendent Linda Firestone says some students told school officials that Galusha had been pushed, causing the accident. She said investigators hoped surveillance footage from a camera near the site would help clarify what happened.
7:31 – Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach
Jamie has a serious problem. His wife is a stripper and she gets lots of phone calls, texts, and unwanted gifts. How do they get her number? How do they know where she lives? There are no red flags with money coming and he doesn’t get to read the incoming texts. She says that she offers therapy to the men. Danny thinks that Jamie doesn’t want to know what’s in the texts because he already knows what’s in the texts, invitations to see her outside of work. Danny thinks she might have a side business and she works ‘overtime’ to make more money. Danny suggests putting some extra detective work into where the money is coming from and where it’s going. It’s quite possible to get written transcripts of the text to confirm the suspicions that Danny has. She tells Jamie to be quiet when she’s on the line with customers and tells him to hide when her customers come to visit her at home. Danny thinks she’s a bad girl and Jamie’s becoming the other man. He needs to pick up the phone and confront the customers and find out what shady business she’s up to. She’s humiliating him and he shouldn’t stand for it.
Len feels bad for Jamie and might not want to see the truth for what it is. It’s Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach, not Len: Life Coach.
7:47 – Jerry got a divorce over a year ago and they split the kids up. He has their son, she has their daughter. He’s not happy about that because the little girl was molested by a member of the ex-wife’s family while she was in her care. He’s the biological father and the custody is based on a verbal agreement. Danny advises Jerry to seek out a lawyer that specializes in father’s rights and it’s an uphill battle to prove to the judge that his daughter is danger. Danny thinks Jerry has malice in his heart and he’s just out to punish the ex-wife. Danny wanted to take his kids from Gretchen, but realized it would cut into sex time with new girls.
Lynn, an exotic dancer, calls with some insight into Jamie’s problem with his wife. As a stripper, don’t take your work home with you. If a dancer is giving out her number she’s got a side business as a ‘parking lot attendant.’
Jamie’s back on the line to explain that she texts so much because she’s their favorite and she lets them know when she’s working so they can come see her. Try asking a manager or looking on the wall to see who’s scheduled. Dropping by with sandwiches is unacceptable and Danny has to inform Jamie what’s coming up. A breakdown will happen before the divorce will. Stop it now or get out.

Danny Bonaduce Show 1/26/09
6:01 – Does Danny know where he is and who he’s talking to? He’s feeling pretty good today considering his boxing match over the weekend. In hindsight fighting a man the size of Jose Canseco was beyond Danny’s physical limits. Black eyes, bloody nose, but no broken nose. Danny woke up with bloody sheets and his eye has gotten worse since Saturday night. The fight ended in a draw. The reasons Danny didn’t lose? Jose didn’t knock him down and never back down from him, no matter how hard he got hit. Though it was ruled a draw, Danny gives much credit to Canseco. The 100 lb. weight difference would be illegal in every sanctioned fighting federation.
Danny takes a call from a guy who was at the fight and was impressed by Danny’s ability to handle himself in the ring. If it was a street fight Danny wouldn’t shot Canseco with a gun. Canseco was polite to Danny, but he wasn’t as nice to the audience in Aston. Danny takes a call from Darren who was impressed by Canseco’s tattoos, but it was really a shirt. His man boobs must have been drooping and he wanted to cover them up, they looked dopey. Bill calls in to say he’s proud of Danny for standing up to a guy one foot taller and 100 lbs. bigger. Jason is on the phone confused about some of the photos he’s seen on the internet. He saw a photo with Papale holding up Canseco’s hand, but that was before the final decision was announced. What about a rematch? Only in a kickboxing match, not another straight boxing match. Danny doesn’t mind playing rough, but show him enough money and he’s ready for action.
6:34 – Danny has respect for Canseco, but does think absurd that he didn’t land a blow that knocked him off his feet considering the size difference. Tom was the EMT working the fight, Danny wants to know if he left a mark on Canseco. Not quite.
Mama Gibbons was in Danny’s corner and shouting all the right strategies for Danny, she had a great time at the after party too. There were some shenanigans outside the venue after the fight too. That’s nothing new to Danny. He popped a guy in the mouth after his last fight for starting up with him and running his mouth. Pepper spray is not fun to breathe in, but Danny couldn’t smell it because his mouth was full of blood from his nose or he’s built up a tolerance.
Ken calls in to commend Danny on his fight. Maybe it was Canseco’s shirt that cost him the fight. Shila’s certain that Danny threw and landed more punches, Canseco just had some bigger shots.

The latest in a series of fires damaged 15 homes in Coatesville late Saturday, leaving several dozen people homeless and prompting city officials to declare a state of emergency. At least 30 arsons have been reported since the beginning of 2008, about half of them in the last three weeks. Police believe the blazes might be part of a gang initiation, but have no clear information about who was committing the crimes and why. Raising the total fire damage since last summer to $3 million. After watching the 14th arson of 2009 savagely gut a block of row houses early yesterday morning, Coatesville officials declared a state of emergency to help protect residents in this small community of about 11,000.
As if dealing with a lawsuit isn't enough, and having Dave touch it…Knicks center Eddy Curry's ex-girlfriend and mother of his 3-year-old son is dead after being shot Saturday. The bodies of 24-year-old Nova Henry and her 9-month-old daughter were found in their Chicago apartment, both dead from multiple gunshot wounds. Curry's son was found on the scene unharmed. Police believe the killings were the result of a domestic dispute but would not elaborate. Meanwhile, the girl’s uncle told the Chicago Sun-Times that she'd had a restraining order against her boyfriend. Curry heard of the deaths Saturday after the Knicks lost to the 76ers.
In Chicago, A 14-year-old aspiring police officer wore a uniform and pretended to be a cop. He walked into a Chicago police station and managed to get an assignment — patrolling in a squad car for five hours before he was detected. The boy did not have a gun, never issued any tickets and didn't drive the squad car. Assistant Superintendent James Jackson said the trick was discovered only after the boy's patrol with an actual officer and the officer noticed his uniform lacked a star that is part of the regulation uniform. The boy looks older than 14 and was motivated by a desire to be an officer, not malice or "ill intent.
Phillies Victorino grants a child's wish. Brandon Crosby was thrown a curve ball at the tender age of 8, he is diagnosed with leukemia. On Saturday, the Make-A-Wish Foundation arranged a meet and greet with Philadelphia Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino, Brandon's favorite player. For a moment Brandon could forget about his leukemia and enjoy the feeling of a wish made well. Brandon and the slugger toured of the Phillies facility, and exchanged signed cards and a personalized jersey. He seems very positive, very strong, and I think that's a positive outlook on life and that's what it's all about," said Victorino.
In London, a fitness gym has removed all the dumbbells and replaced them with humans who don’t mind being lifted, squatted and curled. Owner Richard Hilton of Gymbox says (quote) “We’re optimistic. Our Gymbox members should see better results with our new human weight machines. The human weights shout encouragement just like a personal trainer. Plus, it’s beneficial to visualize the weight you’re lifting. It improves strength by putting the weight into context.” The smallest weight at Gymbox is a 60-pound little person nick-named “Dainty Diva”. The biggest is a guy approaching 350 pounds. Danny has come up with a weight lifting device for mothers but hasn't gotten it patented yet.
7:30 – Danny’s taken a lot of calls throughout the show about beating the odds and going the distance against a giant. Danny wants to hear stories from other people who have had huge challenges and beat the odds.
7:38 – Danny still has a spotless record, but today doesn’t feel like a winning day. Jason was living in Scottsdale, AZ as a golf pro and went on a charity ride with a new motorcycle and gets knocked off his bike by a car, flipped over the handle bars, broke 32 bones and had two fingers snapped off. He was in bad shape, but with the proper positive mindset he’s healthy and 100 % now.
Gary was in Danny’s corner at the fight Saturday. He lost his voice screaming for Danny and thinks Danny was the winner of the first two rounds and the only reason it ended up as a tie was the huge punch Canseco landed in the third round.
Frank was told repeatedly that he’d never amount to anything in the HVAC industry and has made a good name for himself and has a very successful business.
Bill stayed out of prison and got off drugs, something that people told him he couldn’t do. Danny knows from experience that’s not easy to do.
7:56 – Danny takes a call from a show full of tools in Upstate New York that want to talk about the boxing match with Canseco. They applaud each other and high five one another after each dopey question. They take a few digs at Danny, but he keeps his cool and handles himself like a class act.

Although there are exceptions, the SAG Awards tend to provide a hint to Academy Award outcomes. Danny’s always wanted to fight Sean Penn. That would be a bad ass street fight.

“CSI” actor Gerald McCullouch found himself at the center of his own personal crime scene, when he was attacked on a New York subway recently. McCullouch, who plays Bobby Dawson on the hit CBS show, had just gotten off a plane from Los Angeles and was riding the A train when a man allegedly attacked him with a knife. “I yelled at the top of my lungs, ‘Get the [expletive] away from me!’ That’s when the knife came down into my back. I don’t know whether he lost his grip or what, but the blade didn’t penetrate my leather jacket,” he added. “We were in each other’s face. I think I punched him again as the doors closed and the train started leaving the station. I’m watching MTA workers on the platform looking in. I thought, ‘Great, now I’m alone in this car with him.’” Once Danny taped two phone books to his chest and let his friend shoot him. One of the many reasons Danny has instituted a three drink maximum these days.

8:32 – Phil and April Margera call in to talk about Danny’s fight against Canseco. Danny’s a big fan of Bam. A younger Danny has a lot in common with Bam. He is maturing though; taking care of his new club in West Chester called The Note. Phil was thinking that Danny was going to beat Canseco after the beating Danny put on his brother in the ring.
8:38 – Danny vs. Jose Canseco was the undercard to the fight Danny had with his girlfriend Amy after the boxing match. They were at Club Oasis after the fight and did a ‘lap’ around the room when he was called on stage with Casey Parker. She was naked and wrapped her legs around Danny’s face and he grabs her butt and lifts her up over his head and then he walks off stage and Amy is flipping out. She was furious because she thought Danny was doing something with Casey on stage based on the angle she was standing.
Amy’s on the line now and takes issue with the way Danny described what Casey Parker was doing with Danny on stage. She was humiliated because of what people were saying about the dirty stripper parts Danny had on his face and it could be perceived as infidelity. Danny doesn’t want her to just take his word and gives facts as to why he was a good boy. She was repulsed and at defcon 5 when he was walking off stage. Metro was surprised they’re still together this morning.
Danny expresses his love for Amy and his reluctance to cheat with witnesses. Steve from Conshohocken suggests that Casey Parker re-enact the series of events with Amy so she knows what happened. Amy’s not interested in that. Mike thinks that any ‘hot act’ with another woman is considered crossing the line and would Danny still have the same reaction
Danny apologizes for hurting her feelings in a heartfelt manner. It doesn’t go over so well. Like the Hindenburg he goes down in flames.
9:04 – Danny checks in with Chris from the 94 WYSP Extreme Team who is delivering hot chocolate and coffee to some construction workers on behalf of the Danny Bonaduce Show and 7-11.

Kentucky high school football coach charged in the heat-related death of a player during practice is scheduled for arraignment. The count of reckless homicide is believed to be among the first criminal cases against a coach for the death of an athlete. A grand jury indicted the head football coach from Pleasure Ridge Park in the death of 15-year-old Max Gilpin. The sophomore offensive lineman died three days after collapsing during a sweltering practice Aug. 20. Danny is a fan of hard workouts, but withholding water is just plain stupid.
A man who murdered his estranged wife after becoming "enraged" when she changed her marital status to single on Facebook was beginning a life sentence in prison today. Edward Richardson, 41, was convicted of killing 26-year-old Sarah Richardson in a "frenzied and brutal attack" at her parents' home in England last year. He went to his in-laws' home, where his wife had been living since their separation in April 2008, after she failed to reply to his text messages following her change in status on social networking website Facebook.

Laura, whose father works in construction, confirms that construction workers put a tree on top of the structure they’re building for good luck. There were lots of fatalities when constructing the Panama Canal. Dave listens every morning and didn’t get to see the fight but his roommate did and was amazed by Danny’s fortitude. Shila would have loved it if Danny ripped off Canseco’s stupid tattoo shirt.
9:53 – Danny’s Final Thought: I’m paraphrasing Kipling, but here we go. ‘If you can keep your head on your shoulders when all about you are losing theirs. You can have the world and everything in it.’ My opinion is: If you can keep your head on your shoulder while Jose Canseco is punching you in it, they’ll probably call it a draw.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/23/09
6:02 – Danny will work out today leading up to tomorrow’s fight, but he won’t overdo it. One thing Danny’s worried about in the fight against Canseco is having Jose lean on him in the ring when they tangle up. Danny wants to keep his undefeated record. Pushing 265 pounds off you isn’t going to make for an easy fight. Danny’s plan is to drop his weight on Canseco and have him hold Danny’s weight. Jose hasn’t been sounding so confident in the interviews he’s been doing.
Danny had to get a physical from a fight doctor at a hotel last night. It dawned on Danny that Jose is staying in the same hotel and he could run into him somewhere. The actual likelihood of a knockout is not realistic in this fight, so it would most probably go to a judge’s decision. Danny also did some sparring and got a bloody nose, so he had to go see the doctor again. A bloody nose won’t stop the fight because he’ll still be able to see, but it won’t be comfortable to deal with.
6:31 – Danny has a diamond in his chin. He was in a brawl with a dude wearing a pinkie ring and when they guy landed one on Danny’s jaw the diamond from the ring ended up under the skin in Danny’s face.
6:33 – To celebrate Danny’s fight on Saturday he wants to take calls from listeners about what celebrity they’d fight and why.
Justin would like to take a few swings at Tony Romo so he could make a mess on Jessica Simpson’s face. Tom wants to fight everyone on ‘Brody Jenner’s Bromance.’ Jared would fight Kate Hudson so she could kick his ass. JJ would like to take on Tonya Harding WWE style, which is really possible these days; she’ll do anything for cash. Tony wants to fight Vin Diesel; he’s not as tough as he looks. Michael Moore has a challenger in Mike a caller wants to bash in his skull just because he’s annoying and for what he did to Charlton Heston. Chris wants to fight Danny, but the guy’s phone can’t last one round. Jeremy would like to go toe to toe with Rosie O’Donnell because she’s a pain in the ass and runs her mouth. Jordan would like to knock out Danny’s pal Corey Feldman that’s sweetness to his ears.
6:52 – Danny was on the Howard Stern Show yesterday and he replays some of the audio. Danny has a lot of respect for Howard. He also acknowledges the fact that he and Jose have no bad blood; it’s a fight for money and pride. Jose knows some martial arts, Danny does too. They could step it up to kickboxing! Danny’s confident he’ll win, so it doesn’t matter who trained him, Jose is not prepared for Danny. Jose is flat broke and he needs the money for this fight. He blew all his cash from his baseball days. Jose is going through testosterone therapy, but Danny’s level is way above Jose’s.

An Ohio man claims in a lawsuit against a strip club that he was struck in the face and injured by a dancer's discarded boot. Yusuf Evans, 37, said he was at the XTC nightclub in Akron, Ohio, with some visiting friends last year when a dancer using the stage name Tiara kicked off her thick-heeled boot, which flew from the stage and struck him in the nose. Danny got kicked in the chest by woman with stiletto heels once and the sharp part stuck in his chest and he had to twist it out. Ouch. He’s not sure what he did to get the girl mad, but odds are it had to do with cheating.
7:30 – With a flurry of punches for points, Danny’s not afraid of getting cornered by Canseco. Forman/Ali is an inspiration, the rope-a-dope style might work and Jose has to punch straight down against Danny. If Danny can keep his guard up and avoid the killer right, Danny should come out victorious. Danny has to stick to his plan and let Jose get tired of throwing punches so he can burst at him with fists of fury.
The fact that Danny is on steroids is slightly misleading. Danny uses an asthma inhaler is technically a steroid, but he doesn’t use it for performance enhancement. A caller brings up that the rope-a-dope style might not be the best way to win the fight, but getting close to Canseco isn’t as easy as it sounds. Danny should also have the home field advantage.
7:52 – Forgiveness Fridays with Brother Bonaduce.
Danny’s an ordained minister and it’s time to hear some confessions and wipe the slate clean for a fun weekend. Hallelujah!
Pete wants forgiveness for thinking Danny is getting ready for this fight the wrong way. Danny forgives him for being stupid.
Dave had the best sex in his life with a woman who drinks too much. He doesn’t need forgiveness; he’s doing the right thing.
Kevin wants to forgive his brother. He beat his brother up real bad after he slept with his ex-wife. He didn’t put him in heaven, he displayed restraint!
Tony wants to be forgiven for not finding The Danny Bonaduce Show sooner. Patience is a virtue!
Maurice is sleeping with his sister’s husband. Brother Bonaduce isn’t falling for phony phone calls.
Mike went to rob a store and ran in to someone that knew his uncle and bailed on the plan. He was saved by sin from an angel and saved from bad breath.

Here are some details on the new Guitar Hero: Metallica game. In a storyline concocted by frontman James Hetfield, players begin as Metallica's opening act, and eventually play as Metallica once they prove their mettle. Everything about the game, from the menu animations based on art by Pushead, Metallica's long-running collaborating artist, to venues and stage sets from all phases of the band's career to signature lighting effects and crowd chants will be familiar to fans. The members all initially appear as their modern-day selves, but there will be unlockable character skins that hearken back to earlier eras. Although no past members are in the game (there go fantasies for a Cliff Burton cameo — the band feared his inclusion may have felt like a slight to Trujillo), a few of Metallica's heroes make appearances
Slipknot percussionist Chris Fehn has high hopes for the band's future. "I think we're going to overtake Metallica," Fehn told KansasCity.com in a recent interview. "We're going to overtake any band that sells out soccer arenas in Europe. We're going to do it. We're the last chance as far as the world goes."
American musician and label owner Taylor Deupree has accused U2 of copying one of his album covers for their new record. The Irish band's sleeve for 'No Line on the Horizon' features the same image as Deupree's 2006 album 'Specification. Fifteen'. Both covers are based on a photograph by Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto.
Sources claim Angelina Jolie, who was nominated for a Best Actress Academy Award on Thursday, is seeking legal counsel to block Mickey Brett's expose, which will also expose intimate details of her courtship and sex life with Pitt. A publishing insider tells In Touch Weekly magazine, "He (Brett) knows everything about Angelina. It's going to be one of the most explosive books ever written." Brett, who headed up the Jolie/Pitt's security detail when the couple went into hiding in Namibia before the birth of baby daughter Shiloh in 2006, was reportedly fired by Pitt last year.
8:15 – Vince Papalle is on the line, he’s the referee for the Bonaduce vs. Canseco fight this Saturday. There were a few inaccuracies in the movie ‘Invincible.’ His wife wasn’t a Giants fan and he was also a teacher, but that angle was used in ‘The Rookie, so they focused on a different back story. Vince does lots of speaking engagements across the country and he’s in Chicago today. Danny doesn’t want to influence Vince too much, but there could be a huge wad of cash waiting for him if Danny wins. ‘Invincible’ gets Danny fired up. He’ll probably watch Rocky before the fight, he’s 12-0 when he watches it.
8:32 – Casey Parker is in the studio. She’s 22 and she started in the business because she wanted to have sex with a hot chick. Her lady parts are quite popular. She’s done seven movies and moved on to a different company now. She’s in it for the sex; the money is just a benefit. She likes to surf and was a competitive surfer. Local surfers aren’t so nice to tourist surfer. She’s going to be at Oasis Gentlemen’s Club this weekend. She puts on a whole show with costume changes and a light show.
Joe calls in with an idea to get on the Bonaduce/Canseco undercard with a mud wrestling match against Casey. That’s her dream in life to mud wrestle Joe from Frankford on Saturday night.
8:49 – Box for Box!
Danny’s going to ask Casey boxing trivia questions and for every question she gets wrong, she has to take off some clothes. She’s going up against Shila. Will Shila get nude? Casey’s digging Shila. Shila’s doing well, Casey’s losing bad, which is good for us.
8:59 – Casey’s down to her underwear and bra. She hasn’t gotten one question right. She’s down to her panties now, they’re all natural. She lets him touch them just to make sure they’re real. See Casey at Oasis this weekend and look for her new movies soon when she signs with a new company.

Hundreds of UFO enthusiasts and witnesses were to gather at Bucks County Community College on Saturday to discuss what has been a bumper crop of sightings. For many of us, all we know of UFO's are reruns of the X-Files or Close Encounters, but for John Ventre, director of the Pennsylvania Mutual UFO Network, it's a mystery with an every longer list of witnesses:
The classical music played for millions of people watching President Barack Obama's inauguration was not the live performance it appeared to be.

The Cowboys confirmed that one of their 80 roster spots will go to the show's winner.
9:41 – Theresa calls in to say that Vince Papalle was a substitute teacher at her school. Back when she went to school kids could smoke in school. Trixie wants to say good luck on Saturday. Danny has a history of having fights break out at his weigh-ins.
9:57 – Final Thought: Live life to its fullest. Now I will explain how that’s done. I’m 49 years old; I had a hit television show when I was ten. I’ve gone on to do some very interesting things. My 26 year-old girlfriend just came to pick me up from work, not 45 minutes I squeezed the breasts of a girl even younger than she. So let me say this: If Canseco does happen to kill me it’s absolutely worth it.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/22/09
6:01 – There’s a big huge article about Danny in today’s Philadelphia Inquirer. The headline ‘Fighting the Odds’ makes Danny think of fighting cancer. Danny isn’t just fighting Canseco, he’s fighting himself! Danny reviews some of the article.

6:31 – Of the 10 Worst Type of Drunks, Danny fits into seven of the categories. Danny is the naked guy. He’d go into the bathroom at a restaurant with clothes and come out without anything on. Sometimes he ended up in handcuffs.
10 – MRS. "I WILL BE CRYING BY THE END OF THENIGHT"
Shila is a crier.
9 – MR. "I WILL HIGH-FIVE EVERYTHING YOU SAY"
Metro is a high fiver
TYPICAL CONVERSATION:
You: So, the doctor walked in and said I had to have my gall bladder removed.
MR HIGH-FIVE: Gall bladder! YES! (high five)
YOU: (sheepish high-five) Thanks…Phil. So…I went in for the surgery, and when I woke up the surgeon came in and said everything was a success, except that they found a small cyst on my large intestine.

YOU: Are you high-fiving my intestine or intestines in general?
MR HIGH-FIVE: High fiving! (high five)
6:35 – Melanie calls in to say that she has the nickname ‘Crazy Arms’ because she does things like knock people off bar stools. She only gets angry when she drinks gin.

6:43 – Stacey gets wound up and talks dirty but then turns into a ‘star fish.’ She’s not so much fun at the end of the night.
6:53 – Danny is a big MR. “TIME TO BRING UP OLD STUFF YOU’VE DONE THAT PISSES ME OFF.” He even brings up things that people did before they knew him. Danny is still peeved that his girlfriend Amy listed Jose Canseco as her hero on a soccer card from when she was a kid. Danny’s built up some trust with Amy in bed. She put together a tape of her favorite songs to bone to. Danny hates T. Rex on the tape and Amy put one of their songs on the tape after a night of drinking. When he first heard it Danny jumped out of bed and started screaming ‘LIAR!’ He accused her of making the tape for someone one else. She couldn’t have put it together before she met Danny because he bought her the equipment. Then he got jealous of any man who she heard the song with in college. Amy just cuddled with Danny until he wound down and fell asleep. Danny once threatened to dig up Marc Bolan from T. Rex and punch him in the face and then bury him again because Amy called him a genius.

Currently titled The McGwire Family Secret, the book reportedly details how bodybuilder Jay introduced Mark to steroids in 1994, a time when injuries were threatening to derail Big Mac's big league career. McGwire's career experienced a revival in '95 and he hit 345 home runs over the next seven seasons, including a then record-breaking 70 in the summer of '98.
7:31 – Who Would Win In a Fight? Man with No Arms vs. Man with No Legs
Initial belief is that the guy with no arms would get his ass kicked. Shila brings up Jessica Cox, an armless woman who has achieved great things in life. Danny goes against Shila and Metro and picks the guy with no legs as the winner. The shear strength of a man’s arm in a fight that ends up on the ground the legless man is victorious. Shila thinks that the kicking of the armless man, on the ground or standing, would bring utter destruction to the legless man. All fights end up on the ground, especially MMA fights.
Darryl takes the armless fighter, hands down. Michael goes with the legless man. Tom goes with the legless man too. Kicks can be blocked. Ian goes with the armless man. Another caller brings up the frustration of the armless man unable to ‘master his domain’ would lead him to punt the legless guy. Metro brings up fighting styles the armless man could use. Jumping and running is no match for the pound and ground Danny says. Dustin goes with the armless man, kicking a dude on the ground is like kicking a soccer ball. Danny wants to show Metro how wrong his is, we could have a showdown in the hallway.
7:48 – Tim brings up the mobility of the man with no arms. After an experience with handcuffs Tim says they may slow you down, but he ended up in jail, so he didn’t have that much of an advantage. Another caller brings up college wrestlers without legs who are dominant. Jim thinks the legless man would murder the armless man. Hands are an extreme advantage over feet. Jules is for the legless man too, flexibility and grip are clutch in fights. Danny CAN smoke with his foot, that’s a hidden talent!
7:57 – The man with no arms wins 60% of the caller votes to be named victorious!

8:48 – Danny made a quick appearance on the Howard Stern Show to promote his fight against Canseco and Jose let it slip that me might be back on the juice.
Joan Rivers in on the program. Joan’s got two books out right now. One is a comedy/mystery novel, ‘Murder at the Academy Awards.’ Danny has a lot of admiration for Joan because she was the only talk show host to ask the former child stars who said they were off drugs to prove it. Legally she couldn’t release the results and he knows of at least two of the other guys that appeared on that show were using. Joan also has a well researched book about cosmetic surgery. Danny want to get some work done around his eyes, but doesn’t want to end up looking like Bruce Jenner or Burt Reynolds. Joan loved her time on Celebrity Apprentice. She had arguments with three people on the program. Clint Black might be one of them, she loves Dennis Rodman. Danny puts a caller on with Joan about what she’d look like without plastic surgery.

Henson, and a directing slot for David Fincher. Other best-picture nominees are "Frost/Nixon," "Milk," "The Reader" and "Slumdog Millionaire."

School employees who have sex with adult students could face prison time and mandatory sex-offender registration if state lawmakers pass a measure that would crack down on teacher-student relationships. The proposed law came shortly after the state Court of Appeals ruled that a former Hoquiam High School choir teacher accused of having an intimate relationship with an 18-year-old choir member could not be charged with sexual misconduct because the state law criminalizing teacher- student sex is unconstitutionally vague.
9:32 – Matt, a truck driver likes to go into places and change their radios to WYSP so people get to hear Danny. Sometimes he gets chased out of stores. Danny’s not a fan when valet drivers change the radio stations in his car. Not funny.
9:38 – It’s time for a quick round of Lucky Man.
1 – A Chinese kid was shot in the eye with an arrow. The 11 year-old was practicing archery and somehow a friend aimed incorrectly and shot an arrow through the kid’s eye and didn’t stop until it hit the skull. He’ll live, but is he lucky? No. He’s a dick.
2 – A man in China slipped in a bathroom and got a faucet stuck in his eye. The man pulled the tap out himself when doctors were taking too long to decide what to do. He fractured a few bones, but he has no permanent sight damage. Is he lucky? No. He’s a dick.
9:52 – Danny’s Final Thought: As the day gets closer to getting into the square circle with a guy twice my size it has come to my attention, it’s something that I’ve known before. You must to have a cause. You have fight for something you believe in. You can fight for your country. You can fight for your liberty. You can fight for your freedom. But I’ve been training and on a specialized diet for months now and I will be fighting for butter cake! After this bitch goes down on his back I’m gonna pour a butter cake down my throat. That’s what we’re fighting for; we’re fighting for butter cake. I may just lose ‘Boom Boom’ and just be Danny ‘Butter’ Bonaduce. Butter is slick and fast and when this guy goes down it’s gonna be some good eatin’.Ohhh, that didn’t sound right.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/21/09
6:04 – Danny had a lot of thoughts on Obama’s miscue at yesterday’s inauguration. He’s also intrigued about the super secret stuff that only Presidents know that might make it tough to keep campaign promises. There are prophecies from Our Lady of Fatima that are broken up so that no one at the Vatican knows all of them. Obama’s been a busy day yesterday; he’s got to be worn out. If all it took was hard work to be President, Danny could be our Commander in Chief. Danny was also inspired by the inaugural speech. Danny wants more every-day patriotism in the country. After 9/11 Shila had a dart intentionally thrown at her head because she wasn’t a typical American. Danny went over Kennedy’s inaugural speech leading up to Obama’s and was aware of the level violence in Kennedy’s speech. There are many similarities between Kennedy and Obama.
Dave calls in to correct Danny about saying that the ‘Germans bombed Pearl Harbor’ when delivering a line from ‘Animal House.’
Danny’s fantasy of watching women have a pillow fight in lingerie saved the Philadelphia Wings ‘Angels’ calendar from the scrap heap. He got a nice write up in the Inquirer today.
The Philadelphia Wings dance team did a photo shoot for its 2009 calendar, employing as the theme a slumber party in a large mansion. The photos of young women in lingerie were fine, but the lacrosse team's owners decided to scrap the project when they got quotes for design and printing.
Which is how the matter sat until November, when the Sixers Dancers were on Danny Bonaduce's WYSP show to promote their own calendar. Bonaduce said his fantasy was "chicks pillow-fighting behind closed doors in their panties."
Zoinks, exclaimed Wings officials. The calendar had to proceed now.
They called Pinsetter Bar & Bowl in Pennsauken - which had sponsored the Sixers calendar - and arranged their own deal.
The Wings calendar will be released Jan. 22 at a party at Pinsetter. Inspired by Bonaduce's comments, designers put dancers Emily Czerniakowski and Stephanie Rose on the cover, in a pillow fight.
Shila’s fantasy is just some sweetness on a beach in some Adriana Lima lingerie. Metro wants his girlfriend to dress up like Princess Leah slave outfit from Return of the Jedi. Danny just wants two girls to share him. Danny likes to show his sensitive side sometimes, which includes getting sweet smelling bubble bath. Rose pedals on the bed aren’t such a great idea. They bleed on the sheets and if you laugh when your girl gets up after some love making and has rose pedals stuck to her ass things can get ugly.
6:49 – Danny would prefer to have his girlfriend Amy as one of the girls in his threesome and the second girl has to like them both.
Stephanie has a fantasy of a romantic candle lit night at a cabin in the mountains with a warm fire place. From experience Danny warns Stephanie about use of candles and setting off smoke alarms. Danny had an experience with 100 candles that led to a sprinkler shower. Justin calls in to be used by two women at the same time. Danny realizes his fantasy is a little common, but is impressed with Metro’s Star Wars fantasy, but it takes a girl with a good mindset to help pull it off and play along.

At an exclusive Capitol Hill lunch Tuesday, leaders of the nation's political establishment came to salute a new president and lingered to pray for one of its legends. Sen. Edward Kennedy, suffering from an aggressive form of brain cancer, had a seizure at the post-inaugural celebratory lunch and was taken to nearby Washington Hospital Center. Seizures take out a lot of energy and lead to cramps. Danny dated an epileptic once and she had a seizure during an inopportune time and had to run into his crowded living room screaming for a ladle to stick in her mouth so she didn’t swallow her tongue.
Donovan McNabb recently had to play defense at his offseason home in Chandler. Two Arizona Cardinals fans hung their team's flag in a tree and burned "Go Cards," "Go Kurt," and "I heart AZ" in McNabb's yard with diesel fuel, Chandler police Sgt. Joe Favazzo said Tuesday. Favazzo said the fans hung the flag Thursday, and McNabb laughed it off and even left it hanging. Then the fans returned Saturday and left a cardboard box in the driveway with "Go Cards" written on one side and "Beat Philly" on the other. McNabb laughed that off, too, when he discovered it at about midnight, Favazzo said. But McNabb stopped laughing when he went outside Saturday morning, smelled diesel fuel and realized someone had burned Cardinals cheers into his lawn, causing about $2,000 in damage.
Passengers aboard the jet that made a dramatic splashdown in the Hudson River on Thursday are being sent $5,000 checks by US Airways, the airline reported Tuesday.

US Airways also is reimbursing passengers for the cost of their tickets.
A Carnegie Mellon University professor is working on a project to develop a "smart football" with a GPS device built into it to produce 3-D, real-time position readings that would help referees make the right call in determining the correct position of the football on the field of play. So she and her students have been using their brain power to develop a tiny GPS navigation unit inside a football to see if it can accurately track where a ball should be marked on the field. They are also working on "smart gloves," with 11 electronic sensors in each glove to track when or if a player catches a ball. Danny’s a football purist. Instant replay is where he draws the line. Once you start bringing science into a game that crosses the line, especially if performance enhancing drugs are not permitted.
7:17 – The weigh in for Danny’s fight with Jose Canseco is this Saturday. Danny’s favored in the betting lines, much to his pleasant surprise.
7:30 – The Wrestler was the first movie Danny went to in the past two years. Danny really dug it. He’s a Mickey Rourke fan and was really impressed with the work he put in and having worked with Hulk Hogan for the past two years enjoyed the wrestling aspect too. Afa Anoa’I, Jr. from the Wild Samoans is on the show to talk about training Mickey Rourke for the movie. He’s in the WWE Hall of Fame and his nephew is Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. Danny really identified with the character of Randy ‘The Ram’ in the movie. Afa was blown away by Mickey’s willingness to work non-stop and his dedication to coming in sore. Was Mickey doing ‘roids? Afa thinks not, Mickey is just a natural athlete and gained 33 pounds of lean muscle mass. Danny thinks Samoans look intimidating because of their size and hair, but they’re always very nice people. Afa says that Mickey was a little nutty and would have made a good professional wrestler. Afa runs a wrestling training school and there’s one just up the road in Allentown, check it out here. Afa’s worked with guys like The Rock, Batista, and Beth Phoenix. Danny’s certain that Mickey was juicing on the set of the film because of the way his body changed throughout the phases of the film.
7:56 – Howard from Ambler wrote in asking Danny to share to a story about his time on the set of ‘Fantasy Island’. Danny was getting a tour of Hervé Villechaize’s trailer when he said ‘Why don’t you cut it in half and give the top half to your stand in?’ Hervé then took out a gun and threatened to kill him for the insult. Danny apologized, the gun went away, and he noticed a punch dagger on his belt. Then he takes out the punch dagger and threatened Danny again. The next time Danny heard about Hervé, he shot himself in the chest, but the wound wasn’t immediately fatal.

The rise to the presidency of Barack Obama has posed a problem for comedians, Chris Rock has told CNN. There's little that is funny about him. "He's just one of those guys, you know, like Will Smith. There's no Will Smith jokes. There's no Brad Pitt jokes." Rock says he has yet to get a handle on Obama. "It's like 'Ooh, you're young and virile and you've got a beautiful wife and kids. You're the first African-American president.' You know, what do you say?" But Rock says he's hopeful. "At some point he's going to -- there's always slip ups. No one can survive that level of scrutiny without occasionally making it easy for a comedian."
Britney Spears may get $14 million to write her memoirs. The 27-year-old singer is close to signing a publishing deal to tell all about her trials and tribulations, Britain's Daily Mirror reported yesterday. "There have been numerous unofficial biographies printed about Britney, but she's never agreed to pen her own tome until now," the newspaper quoted a source as saying. "And some of the stories she's got are absolute dynamite," the source said. "She's kept diaries, so there's nothing she'll leave out unless she wants to."
8:33 – Emily and Stephanie, cheerleaders from the Philadelphia Wings, are in the studio to talk about their sexy new 2009 Angels calendar. It’s all thanks to Danny. The girls haven’t seen it yet, but they were able to pick out their asses on the back of the calendar. The girls couldn’t get as edgy as Danny would have liked, they wanted to be sexy, but also able to be picked up by anyone in the family. Danny runs through the months and does play by play on what they’re wearing and how they’re posing.
Will they pillow fight Danny? YES!
8:48 – Cheerleader Pillow Fight! Danny does play by play; they start out with ass shots and move to the head. Stephanie is on the attack and Emily fights back. Lots of giggling. After the first round they’re out of breath and Danny has a huge smile on his face. Emily is declared the winner.

A bomb scare shut down a 30-mile stretch of the New Jersey Turnpike on Tuesday night, snarling traffic for hours before state police determined the threat was not credible. State police spokesman Sgt. Stephen Jones said troopers took a 27-year-old Massachusetts man into custody following a car stop around 6:15 p.m. Tuesday in the southbound lanes of the turnpike in Woodbury Heights about six miles south of Exit 3.
Michael Nicholson, a 67-year-old Kalamazoo retiree has amassed 27 college degrees since 1963, and he's not done yet. He started with a bachelor's degree in religious education at William Tyndale College in Detroit. That led to a master's degree in theology at Dallas Theological Seminary. Since then, he has earned two associate's degrees, 19 master's degrees, three specialist's degrees and one doctoral degree. Danny only attended college to get chicks and he never took a class. If he did go for a degree it would be in history.
9:28 – Danny’s gained more confidence leading up to Saturday’s fight, but no matter how hard he works, he can’t make up for the size difference. Metro is scared to talk to Danny around fight time. The fight is three one-minute rounds and Danny plans to punch non-stop during the match, but getting knocked out isn’t something Danny’s excited about. Danny’s fainted at the sight of his own blood before. In his last fight Danny hit Bob Levy so hard he forgot his own name. Danny has no interest is going 12 rounds for a fight, that’s like running a marathon and getting punched in the face non-stop.
9:52 – Danny’s Final Thought: Yesterday was certainly a historic day, we swore in our first African-American President. But the important point is we have a new President and he told us that things will change, that things will get better, but things will take time. Of course I told you I’d like to see two hot chicks pillow fight and it happened almost immediately. So when it gets right down to it, who’s the most important man in the United States? The President of the United States? No. The morning jock on WYSP in Philadelphia.

6:01 – Six am seems early today because of the cold weather. There’s a difference between wet suits and dry suits for divers. Wet suits take a thin layer of water and warms it up, while dry suits attempt to keep you dry, but they never really work, just like gloves and a jacket on a cold windy day. Riding on ice wasn’t appealing to Danny this morning, but he managed to ride Amy’s scooter to work just fine. Riding one way streets make it easy to run red lights.
Yesterday just before pulling into his garage and breaking a few laws to keep from going around the block one extra time Danny went on the sidewalk with the engine still running and was pulled over by a policeman on foot patrol. He was told to ‘keep it on the road’ and Danny’s natural instinct is that he’s getting arrested so he pulls over and offers and explanation and tells the officer that in Los Angeles riding a scooter on the sidewalk is an offense punishable by death. Or close to it. The officer shot back ‘just go.’ Now that Danny has had time to think about it, maybe an arrest would have helped his career.
6:26 – Over the weekend, Shila, Philadelphia’s worst driver, ran a stop sign. Shila lied her way out of a ticket, she didn’t flirt or act dumb though. She’s not so romantic. Shila’s been arrested three times for underage drinking, got out of it two times. One day she was pulled over twice in a half hour. First guy let her go because she was on the radio, then she was going 60 in a 35 and yelled at the officers before they had a chance to ask for her license and registration. She’s never needed bail to get out. Shila’s out of her mind. When she was younger she was drinking with friends, someone took her car and she was riding with her friend who had a bad reaction to some meds and jumped out of a moving car.
Metro was in a police chase once. A cop was behind him without the sirens on and started cutting through side streets and pulled into a drive way hoping the cop would just keep going. The cop pulled in behind him and started yelling at him. The he dropped a pack of cigarettes and was yelled at again for going to grab them. When he gets pulled over these days Danny immediately puts his hand out of the windows so he doesn’t get scolded by a man with a gun.
6:36 – Matt calls in to say that he was riding his new motorcycle home without a motorcycle license and was pulled over. He got a $35 ticket and got off easy. Danny didn’t have a driver’s license until he was 30. He drove around illegally for 14 years. One time Danny pleaded ‘incredibly guilty’ to an offense. Denise was eight months pregnant doing 70 in a 35 and told the officer she said she had to use the bathroom. She was let go scott free. One of Danny’s friends was pulled over while chugging a bottle of Pepto-Bismol and was let go too. Danny likes to smoke while he rides, which can lead to a fine, so he’d ride around with a bag of cigarette butts to show that he took care of his butts. Zoli was walking out of a Wawa and stopped by a police officer because he matched a description from an assault, but was let go because the woman said the guy had nice teeth, and Zoli’s grill was jacked. Nice.
6:54 – Danny is becoming obsessed with the Eddy Curry sexual harassment story. Curry’s not a great player, but everyone’s taking Curry’s side. He’s come out to the press to start defending himself, but how do you defend yourself about accusations that you’re gay? Curry’s had a lot of off the court issues including a dangerous home invasion robbery. Danny lived through a home invasion robbery and had to testify about it in court. Danny was upset to learn that his dog was friendly to the burglars. There’s many questions about Curry’s sexuality, but not about his manners.

Hundreds of thousands of people streamed into Washington Tuesday to witness the inauguration of Barack Obama as the first black US president, in a moment of national unity after years of political tumult. Vast crowds braving freezing cold crammed the National Mall and mobbed streets leading onto the central thoroughfare, clogging the Washington metro system and roads leading to downtown more than five hours before Obama was to take the oath of office.
More than a year after denying it, the newly elected mayor of Portland has admitted having a sexual relationship with a male teenager in 2005. Sam Adams, who is openly gay, acknowledged the relationship in a statement Monday. Adams, 45, said he and the teen were together in the summer of 2005, shortly after the teenager turned 18 in June, and when Adams was a city commissioner. The revelations come nearly a year and a half after Adams and the teen said rumors of a sexual relationship between them were false.

7:33 – Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach
Frank has been married to five years and a year back his wife confessed to a one night stand while they were together. It happened a year ago and she recently told him, he doesn’t know the guy. Danny sees two acts of selfishness. First she sleeps with some dude and then she puts the notion of an affair in Frank’s mind if he was never going to find out anyways. The guilt is hers to deal with. Frank’s mind is full of mental images of the affair. She’s a cruel woman. If he thinks about it less and less over time and he still loves her than stick with it if it’s tolerable.
Angry Army Guy is not a chubby chaser, but both women he married are overweight and not faithful. What’s wrong with the women he’s attracting. His woman’s about 225, that’s a big girl. She’s a size tent. Danny’s experience has taught him that larger girls don’t want to be rejected based on their appearance, so they work on having a bad personality to drive people away.
7:46 – Dave calls in to talk about dating a larger girl for two years who was ‘cheating’ on him with another girl. If a girl wants to leave you for another girl, just bring the other girl into your bedroom.
Earl has a mother in-law problem. She moved back to town from Florida and she hates ALL men. He just bought a house and she’s trying to move into the house. NO. If he says no his wife’s going to be mad at him, but the fights will fade away. He’ll fight for the rest of his life if a woman who hates him and says so is living under his roof.
Bill was trying to score a woman who was dating another man. She broke up with him and Bill went to the Metallica show with her and they had a good time. She doesn’t want a boyfriend at the moment, so how does he win her back? He never had her, so that’s not possible. She used him for the Metallica tickets and don’t play with this girl, she’s poison.
Dennis wants to talk about Angry Army Guy. If an Army guy is deployed and his hot wife cheats on him it’s crushing. If his big wife cheats on him and they divorce, no big deal. Danny’s read a few studies about marrying someone you’re attracted to rather than desperately in love with because you’ll never be satisfied with yourself, always trying to please them.
7:56 – Jared’s been on prescription pills for three years. When he was in his heyday Danny would pop any pill anyone gave him. Jared’s been clean for six months now and thinks his girlfriend doesn’t know about his addiction and going through outpatient rehab. He snorted five 80mg oxy’s a day and thinks no one knew about it. Danny’s certain everyone knew about his problem, but he has a chance to tell his fiancée something she already knows.
Mike has a stepson who’s not doing well in school and it’s causing issues in the bedroom. When he wants it she doesn’t, when she wants it he doesn’t. Danny might have to pull his man card. Every man should always be ready to go. Call back when there’s a real problem.
8:10 – Entertainment News:
Kelly Osbourne just tapped into some of her old habits. The 24-year-old daughter of Ozzy Osbourne was recently arrested for allegedly slapping a gossip reporter at a London club back in August. Danny knows her fiancée and he’s an idiot.

‘Heroes’ creator Tim Kring said the next volume of the show will start "pretty much from scratch", after fans criticized a lack of direction in the second and third series. NBC says it is committed to Heroes, which starts its fourth season in the February 2nd.Danny had a tough time getting into Lost and has no idea what’s going on or why a polar bear is on the island. Danny lives and dies with the History Channel and the Biography Channel.
An explosive National Enquirer exclusive features excerpts from a book written by Randolph Cook—an alleged ex-lover of Oprah Winfrey—in which he claims his esophageal cancer was caused by countless romantic nights smoking crack with Oprah in the 1980s. They detail how he became a card-carrying member of Oprah's Rock Club:
Cook, 51, also claims the media mogul taught him how to smoke crack cocaine, and the two "freebased" the drug regularly during their passionate six-month romance and the talk show titan "was still under the influence while doing her show." ... Court papers back up Cook's shocking drug allegations about Oprah!
The document, titled "Defendant Oprah Winfrey's Answer to Plaintiff's Amended Complaint at Law," reveals: "Defendant admits that she and Cook had sexual relations." And it also says: "Defendant admits that Cook used cocaine in her presence and that she used cocaine while Cook was present." Danny’s confident she’s a big fan of women. Danny doesn’t buy into guys who write tell all books that are about other people.
8:34 – Danny is amazed that girls are attracted to guys who are jerks or a little dangerous. Brian Austin Green has kept Megan Fox around by treating her like trash. Danny’s theory is that she’s used to be treated like a princess and being treated differently is attractive. Danny has a reputation for being a bad boy, but he’s not as bad as his reputation would contradict that. His clothes, mannerisms, and Harley would indicate he’s rough and tough. Shila’s not a fan of women who go out to start problems and get their boyfriends into fight. If Danny were a girl he’d go for a clean cut cute guy before a guy like himself. Shila would go for the bad boy. He has mystery, he was direct, and didn’t beat around the bush. Danny’s girlfriend likes his directness.
Danny made her throw out the ‘rule book’ and up front with her. Being direct isn’t the same thing as being a bad boy. Before his current relationship Metro was in a three year relationship. Shila doesn’t trust nice boys because they appear to be sweet, but they’re not always good people. Danny thinks that jerks get the girl first, but the nice guy wins in the long run.
8:46 – Melissa calls in to say she doesn’t like the overconfidence of jerks. Being a nice guy can lead you to fall into the ‘just friends’ category. If Danny’s not sleeping with a girl by the third date it’s over.
Liz agrees with Melissa. Tough guys with some confidence to be up front. Dominic thinks that girls like the rock n’ rollers and women want to change guys. Danny dated a long line of women who wanted to tame him and dull him down. Danny’s ex-wife is jealous that his girlfriend Amy, is reaping the benefits of her ‘hard work.’ Danny isn’t afraid to talk to Amy like a friend who he’s also in love with.
8:55 – Carrie thinks women are attracted to the alpha male. Amy’s mother used to fret over her safety in Los Angeles, but once Danny entered the picture she knew her daughter was safe. Danny needs to be kept on a short leash and was having a tough time getting up early to train for his fight this weekend and got Amy to wake him up with an electric dog collar. He doesn’t mind having to ask her for money either. Danny with a fistful of cash could lead to trouble.
9:38 – Barack Obama is getting ready to get sworn in later today. Metro’s pretty fired up. Shila’s brother and mother are up there. Danny’s intrigued because he’s a history buff, but he’d be more than happy to watch it on television. Shila doesn’t know the names, but there are Obama drinks all over Philadelphia bars. Danny never kept any Partridge Family memorabilia but one of the highlights was when he took a tour of the White House in 1971 when Richard Nixon heard he was in the building and sent for him. He had a conversation about fame and personal security with the president. That was the second coolest thing to ever happen in his life. Number one? Two dates to the prom for the short fat kid.
9:54 – Final Thought: Let me give you a head’s up in advance that the first part of this can seem overly serious and the last part of this can seem flippant and disrespectful. Let me tell you in advance, I mean no disrespect and I’m going to stand by this. Yesterday we celebrated the life of and the unfortunate and untimely death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., April 14th, 1968 he was killed. He was killed for his beliefs and I’m thinking people of all race, creed, and colors should have the same rights as every other human being and certainly every other American. And 39 years later we are living to see the first African American President sworn into office. They say history is written by the victors. 39 years after his death Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. won. We have elected a man who cares about the economy, who cares about education, and just like me cares about this: ‘Trying to get laid’. That’s the man. I am proud I live to see the day a President I can relate to is taking seat in the Oval Office.

6:01 – Ed Hardy is wearing Shila today. She’s been wearing a lot of Ed Hardy lately because she got lots of it for Christmas. Danny has ridiculous pants on today; he’ll get into that later.
Watching the Eagles loss in the NFC Title Game yesterday was like watching your own child die. Danny’s done very well sticking to his three drink maximum, the size of the drinks gets progressively larger when he’s at home. Danny didn’t recall talking to Metro on the phone last night. Danny wrote detailed notes about the game that get tougher to understand as the game went out. Danny has an extreme dislike for Larry Fitzgerald.
Shila had her hopes up when the Eagles took the lead, but was crushed at the end. Danny recalls his pregame conversations with Jon Runyan and Merrill Reese about playing mistake free football. By the fourth quarter Danny’s notes are illegible. Danny was living and dying with his Eagles after years of having no sports team loyalties.
6:32 – This season the Eagles were like Danny’s life, they came back from living in a dumpster to a chance to get in the Superbowl. Danny wears his super-bedazzled pants to feel better on a day like today. Shila loves the jeans, but not the shirt. He looks like a speed skater on steroids. Shila take a shot at Metro for wearing the same outfit every day. Shila’s upset she didn’t get to drink yesterday, Danny made up for her.
Sean, Shila’s masseuse, from Joseph Anthony salon in Glen Mills, calls in to talk about how proud he is of the Eagles and the best way to remove Shila’s cob webs. Metro got back together with his girlfriend Amy last night. After two rough weeks they’re back to boyfriend and girlfriend. Greg wants to put the game in perspective with all the hungry people in the world. Their team didn’t lose, F them.
6:51 – Danny’s fight record is 11 – 0 with 10 knock outs, Donny Osmond doesn’t count because it was a decision. One of Danny’s fights was against a 28 year-old marathon runner who was short and thick like Danny. First hit to the face one of the guys jagged teeth cut through his cheek. Danny’s been working his ass off for the Canseco fight. He’s flipped the switch to full on mania.
7:07 – News with Shila:
Barack Obama said he’s “as hopeful as ever” about the future of the U.S. as thousands of Americans converged on Washington’s Lincoln Memorial for a free concert to celebrate his inauguration as the first black president. People gathered hours in advance for the event at the same site chosen by civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. for his 1963 “I Have a Dream” speech. The concert featured songs by Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, and U2. Danny is always impressed by Aretha Franklin. What do Danny and Stevie Wonder have in common? Neither of them saw the concert
Don't fear Philadelphia. Tastykake has released a statement assuring consumers that their peanut butter products are safe for consumption and not included in the national recall program.
A 6-year-old boy was killed and a man was hurt after they were hit by flying chunks of metal while watching a monster truck rally at the Tacoma Dome on Friday night, officials confirmed. The gruesome accident happened just after 10 p.m. Friday during the Monster Jam, when an apparent mechanical malfunction in a truck's driveline, under the cab, caused metal fragments to spew out toward the crowd amid a burst of sparks. Danny has a clause in his will to not alert any loved ones of his death if they’re on vacation or doing something fun. Why ruin their time?
7:25 – Danny gives away a drum head signed by Metallica. It pays to stop by the 94 WYSP booth when we’re broadcasting live from concerts. It was a great show, about a 50/50 split of new stuff and old stuff. Lots of parents brought their kids to the show. They never disappoint. Joe calls in to bring up the most touching point of the show was when James brought out his seven year-old daughter to sing happy birthday to her.
Over the weekend Danny answered 130 of 150 e-mails over the weekend. Mike, one caller that wrote him, was upset that his handicapped friend wasn’t allowed on the floor. Danny understands the safety issue, but if there was a difference in price with the new seats he was given then he should be reimbursed.
Danny was once a hamster breeder on an episode of The Partridge Family when he was bitten by a hamster on the set and had to go through 14 rabies shots to the stomach. Shila had to go through a battery of rabies shots after getting a bad bite from a pit bull. Danny thinks she didn’t get rabies shots because the dog wasn’t tested, but the hamster was dead after it bit Danny so they couldn’t test it.
7:50 – Merrill Reese, voice of the Eagles, is on the show. The Eagles D wasn’t as tough as they had been throughout the playoffs, the offense couldn’t capitalize on key plays, and special teams also didn’t play up to their ability. Brent Celek had a tremendous post season. Danny does not like Fitzgerald at all, but he’s one of the best in the game. The defense didn’t penetrate and pressure Warner enough. Mike calls in to ask Merrill if the Eagles will ever win the Superbowl. Merrill thinks they have to make roster changes, not at quarterback, to take it to the next level. He’d be surprised if Runyan and Thomas back on the O line next year and they should take a tackle early in the draft. Running back is another position they need to explore. Only 14 out of 53 players from the ’04 team are still on the squad. Merrill is certain that Andy Reid will return and take responsibility for the struggles.

The 23-year-old star - who recently moved out of the Playboy Mansion after splitting from the 82-year-old lothario - admits she used to "sneak" out of the famous party house to get the satisfaction Hugh couldn’t provide. She said: "I had to have sex every now and then, so I had to kind of sneak it." Danny’s wife wouldn’t allow him in the Playboy mansion. As soon as he was separated he did a live broadcast from the Grotto and nailed one of the girls there. He also tagged his girlfriend Amy there. Danny likes that the Girls Next Door are classier than the girls from Rock of Love and Flavor of Love.

The "black box" recorders recovered from the US Airways jetliner that splashed down in the Hudson River captured thumping sounds, the sudden loss of engine power and the pilot's calm "Mayday" call, evidence that seems to back up the crew's account of hitting a flock of birds shortly after takeoff. Danny has a lot of respect for the pilot and for the divers that went into the water. Danny’s a certified rescue diver, if you need saving you’d better be in the Bahamas.
The 16-foot long walking piano from the 1988 film "Big," starring Tom Hanks, is now part of the collection of the Please Touch Museum, the children's museum of Philadelphia. It was built in Philadelphia by Remo Saraceni, whose company, Museum Interactive Technologies, is based in the city.
Philadelphia police say one of the officers responding to a domestic disturbance shot and killed a man after he allegedly tried to grab a police baton.
The world's first flying car is preparing for takeoff next month. The car, developed by former NASA engineers, is called the Terrafugia Transition. It can transform from a two-seat car to a plane in just 15 seconds, and it fits in a standard garage. The car uses normal unleaded fuel and if the test flight goes as planned it could land in showrooms in about 18 months. Alaska, however, is the only state that allows you to take off from roadways.
9:27 – Steve, Friday’s winner of Guess the Seat for a trip to see the Eagles in the NFC Title Game is on the show now. He gave up the seats??? His girlfriend couldn’t go so he gave up his spot. She couldn’t get off from work for the days needed to take the trip and gave the trip to his boss. Then his girlfriend wrote him a text saying that she could go now. Danny wants to know where she’s buried. Danny thinks Steve is a lucky guy now. His girl knows he’d do anything for her, his boss owes him big, and his friend knows that he took the effort to attend his wedding. If Shila won the trip she’d go without her boyfriend. Danny thinks that Shila is heartless.
The first time Danny saw the Grand Canyon at sunset he got misty because the girl he loved couldn’t be there to share the moment with him and no description he could ever give would do it justice.
9:51 – Danny’s Final Thought: The reason I get this ‘Final Thought’ and then I get to ‘Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach’ and things like that is because I have a lot of experience and one thing my life has taught me is to look for the silver lining. So if you’re that guy Steve that gave away the tickets to see the Eagles play the Cardinals because your girlfriend made a mistake. If you’re the guy that got fired from your job while you were just trying to serve your country. You might think it’s the worst day of your life if just your Philadelphia Eagles didn’t beat the Cardinals. I tell you this from one of these experiences: Every day that you wake up and you’re not chained to the transvestite you just beat up it’s going to be a really good day.

6:02 – Shila has had a profound influence on Danny’s life lately. It’s hard to look cute and girl when waking up at 4 am. Usually Shila wears baggy clothes, but lately she’s been wearing fitted clothes, which shows off her body. Danny’s a little nervous about his $10,000 side bet with Jose Canseco for their fight. Yesterday Danny experienced a good omen that had him thinking positive about the boxing match.
Yesterday Danny did a slew of radio interviews promoting the fight and when going home he forgot his gloves and helmet when zipping home on his scooter. No one gives him a hard time when they see him on the scooter. In the nine block trip Danny didn’t die, but he was awfully cold riding in January with no helmet and half way home Danny’s hands really felt the effects of the frigid air. Just when he was about to give into the pain a dude pulls up and calls him ‘one crazy MF’er.’ When he got home his fingers were swollen to such a level that his rings were turning his fingers blue. Eventually Danny thawed out. Shila’s three pinky toes go numb for days when she wears high heels and walks in single digit weather.
6:13 – After avoiding danger and getting him fine and dandy Danny was feeling good when he experienced a bad omen. While walking Danny slipped on a ‘man made’ ice patch. Shila brings up a little known Indian superstition of falling before leaving home, you have to go back and sit on a chair or couch to ‘reset.’
6:28 – Correll Buckhalter replay
6:46 – Jon Runyan is on the show now. He’s in for treatment early today. He’s not practicing this week, he’s been banged up for a while, but he’s feeling better going into Sunday. The pain comes and goes during the game, playing artificial turf in the cold wasn’t the optimal condition last week, so going to Arizona to play on grass is looking good to Jon. He’s heard conflicting stories about the Cardinals closing the roof so the bandwagon fans they have actually sound loud. There’s no extra pressure needed for a game like the NFC Title Game, don’t get psyched out on Friday or you’ll be wiped out before the opening kickoff. The Cardinals are creating turnovers, but if the Birds can keep the ball the game will be theirs. Mistakes will be made, but crucial mistakes and miscues are what needs to be avoided. Keep a clear head, stay away from mudslinging and focus on the games. Danny finds the fact that Jon plays hurt is inspirational to Danny. No matter what happens on the field, he’ll be lined up for every snap.

A U.S. Airways flight landed in the Hudson River in New York Thursday, just minutes after taking off from LaGuardia Airport. All 155 passengers and crew on board made it off the plane safely. One victim suffered two broken legs, a paramedic said, but there were no other reports of serious injuries. A commuter ferry from the company NY Waterway arrived within minutes of the crash. Flight 1549, was bound for Charlotte, North Carolina. A New Jersey State Police source told CNN the pilot radioed to air traffic controllers that he had experienced a bird strike--when a bird or flock of birds is sucked into the jet engine--and declared an emergency. The pilot who guided a crippled US Airways jetliner safely into the Hudson River — saving all 155 people aboard — became an instant hero Thursday, with accolades from the mayor and governor and a fan club online. The pilot of Flight 1549 was Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger III, 57, of Danville, Calif. Sullenberger is a former fighter pilot who runs a safety consulting firm in addition to flying commercial aircraft. Sullenberger, who has flown for US Airways since 1980, flew F-4 fighter jets with the Air Force in the 1970s. He then served on a board that investigated aircraft accidents and participated later in several National Transportation Safety Board investigation.
Before President-elect Obama's inauguration next Tuesday in front of the US Capitol, he'll take a much anticipated train ride on Saturday from Philadelphia to Washington. But the Philadelphia leg will not be open to the general public, because of space limitations at 30th street station. Because Philadelphia, wasn't able to work out a big, public send-off, according to police commissioner Charles Ramsey: The president elect will make remarks to a small group of people inside the north waiting room at 30th street station at about 10:15 on Saturday morning: - tickets have already been distributed. Then Mr. Obama's entourage will pick up vice president-elect Joe Biden and hold an open to the public event outside the Wilmington train station at about 1pm.
A 39-year-old suburban Philadelphia woman is getting at least 8 1/2 to 17 months in the Bucks County Prison for her actions at a sleepover with ninth-grade boys. Angela Honeycutt was convicted of two counts of corrupting the morals of minors. She had kissed and showered naked with boys at the sleepover. She is also receiving an additional three to six months for violating probation on an unrelated drug conviction. To avoid untrue allegations Danny would sleep at a friend’s house when his daughter had sleepovers with other girls.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health says there are increases in the number of reported cases of gonorrhea and chlamydia. Although Pennsylvania's rate is below the national average, the number of new cases rose in 2007. The state said Wednesday that gonorrhea is up 10 percent and chlamydia up 7 percent. Those infected with chlamydia may not show symptoms, so the state says regular testing is important.
Some people think porn has no class, but thanks to a university in Taiwan, now it is a class! The Mass Communication Department of Providence University has opened a course that teaches students how to appreciate and analyze porn movies. To pass the course, students must give a 15 minute presentation in which they analyze an audience's psychological reaction to a porn clip from an academic perspective. More than 50 students registered for the class and were asked to sign a paper saying that if the scenes were too explicit, they could choose to leave the classroom. Porn has gotten so aggressive and desensitized, what’s next? Last night Danny wouldn’t do what his girlfriend asked for, he made her order him to do what she wanted.
7:35 - Merrill heads out to Arizona on Saturday and might get some golf in with Mike Quick. After the Redskins game Merrill thought the Eagles were dead, but then had a change of heart and began to believe green. The worst day Merrill had with the team was the day after the Superbowl. If the fans are a little less feverish than some might expect, it’s because of getting so close so many times in the last 10 years. A caller wants to know how the state of Pennsylvania as a whole feels about two teams in the playoffs. The Steelers aren’t thinking a bit about the Eagles yet and the state is split down the middle. Merrill’s not fond of a PA Superbowl, he’d rather see an Eagles/Ravens game because of Harbaugh and Flacco on the field. Many media outlets have been pounding it down our throats that the Cardinals are a ‘different team’ now, but so are the Eagles. They’ve improved dramatically and if the Birds can limit turnovers we’re Superbowl bound.

You don't want to see the drama of a…Blondie or [Sex] Pistols or Van Halen. It's ridiculous. This is Metallica's moment – along with others – but let's celebrate. Let's forget the crap."

8:15 – Bobby Bruce from Westhampton, NJ calls in to claim his prize as the winner of 50 Days of Metallica. He answered 46 of the 50 questions in the contest. What’s he going to ask Metallica when he interviews them? He’s not sure, but Danny would ask about chicks they’ve nailed.

In a farewell address to the nation Thursday night, Bush harkened back to the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, a time when the public rallied around him and his approval ratings soared. As Americans get ready to turn the page on George W. Bush, he stated that while his policies have been unpopular there can be little debate about the results: "America has gone more than seven years without another terrorist attack on our soil." Leaving office with the highest disapproval rating since Richard Nixon, The nation's 43rd president remained defiant about his own record. He claimed foreign policy successes in Iraq and Afghanistan while crediting his administration for improving public schools, creating a new Medicare prescription drug benefit and finding more money for veterans.
In light of U.S. Airways flight landing safely on the Hudson River in New York yesterday, because a flock of birds got sucked into the jet engine just minutes after taking off. The Philadelphia International Airport has a wildlife hazard management plan to prevent accidents such as the one at La Guardia. Patrols capture and remove or use loud noises to scare away wildlife that gets too close to the airport. The facility is also careful about plantings or water on the premises that might attract birds or animals. It's not just birds that present a hazard at Philadelphia says foxes or deer on the runway can be a problem:
Philadelphia Police arrested two suspects during a standoff that followed a robbery and shooting at a pharmacy near Oxford Circle Northeast Philadelphia. According to authorities, the gunmen shot a store clerk during a robbery attempt at about 2:15 p.m. Thursday at a pharmacy at 1501 E. Cheltenham Avenue. At least eight customers fled the store when police arrived. The suspects remained barricaded in the building for nearly 20 minutes before surrendering to police. The store clerk is in stable condition.
Eagles mania has really hit new heights For Brent Blanchard of Medford Lakes, New Jersey and his three boys, in anticipation of Sunday's playoff game against the Arizona Cardinals. The self proclaimed football family doesn't miss a beat when it comes to game day tradition or superstition, making sure to wear the same jerseys, and sit in the same positions and watch on the same television. Last year, Brent created an Eagles end zone replica in their Medford Lakes, New Jersey backyard. Brent and his boys say they've put the field to good use, but hope they have reason to paint yet another one ... with a Superbowl logo.

The job offers a salary of $105,000 to spend six months on the Great Barrier Reef island of Hamilton and report on it. Well, the job has sparked so much interest around the world that a rush of applications crashed the website advertising the post. The website to apply www.islandreefjob.com is finally back up and running if you are still interested. Neither skills, nor experience is needed, and there is no age requirement. The job starts in July.
9:35 – Sunny Leone is sitting next to Danny. It’s always Sunny in Philadelphia. Sunny was in a Debbie Does Dallas sequel, not a lot of grooming in the first one. Sunny is of Indian descent, just like Shila. She was looked down on until she won Penthouse Pet of the Year. Sunny’s is an experienced girl. She likes women, but prefers men. Danny believes his girlfriend has bisexual tendencies, could Sunny’s gaydar confirm Danny’s beliefs? She needs a good instigator to lead her to the promised land. Sunny will be appearing at Club Risque this weekend.
9:55 – Danny’s Final Thought: There’s only one thought: GO EAGLES!
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/15/09
6:02 – Whenever Danny’s in a big hurry to get to work in the morning he takes his girlfriend’s scooter. He doesn’t have to warm it up like his Harley, and zips down the streets of Center City Philadelphia running red lights. He did get caught up in some construction a block away from work. Danny noticed two cops a few blocks away and noticed a guy asleep in a backhoe at the construction. It’s a fancy backhoe too. Danny’s ridden in some sweet tractors and backhoes in his day. Danny arrived at work ticket free!
6:11 – There’s a huge post-fight after party at Club Oasis on the 24th. Danny and Jose Canseco are both scheduled to appear and entrance is free with fight ticket. There’s a penthouse in Danny’s apartment building. Somehow Danny ended up on the penthouse floor when riding the elevator this morning which he sees as a good sign for the fight. He also happened to have $10,000 on him to match Canseco’s side bet. The bet is that whoever wins the fight in the first round by knock out wins the cash. If it goes to two rounds it’s off. Danny’s confident he’ll stand his ground, but he needs a trainer to help him with strategy during the fight. Danny doesn’t drink water during the fight because he doesn’t breathe so well and needs all the air he can get, so Shila will spray water on his face between rounds. Danny’s going to have the biggest corner team in the history of boxing.
6:23 – Ryan calls in to ask what $10,000 sounds like spanking off Shila’s chest. Danny just smacked a hot girl with 10 grand!
6:48 – Danny’s been a little distracted with the fight lately, but he’s got a good support network to help him take care of business. It’s time to play ‘Who am I?’ with the Eagles. Danny reads a fact about a player and whoever gets it right wins tickets to his fight against Jose Canseco on the 24th.

To exotic-pet lovers in the area, Dr. Danielle Smith was a knowledgeable, caring veterinarian who made house calls, gave pet inoculations and also operated an animal rescue for rare birds, snakes and lizards. But, authorities say Smith is really a 32-year-old alleged con man named Daniel C. Tyce, who dressed as a woman and possibly scammed pet lovers across the region out of thousands of dollars, even putting phony collection cans — for a rescue that didn’t exist — in area stores.
SPCA officers estimate more than 30 cats, many of them feral, have been living in the filth and garbage. It appears the woman who lives at the home has been collecting trash for months, possibly years in her Kensington.
Celebrities like Britney Spears deals with it every day -- fame -- and with that comes the paparazzi ...now you can experience a piece of that ...by hiring a crew from paparazziphilly.com ---Kenneth Dunning is the owner: "We have three photographers that follow you and we are snapping, snapping pictures 360 degrees around you also with the two video cameras that are following you. And we do this up to three hours for you. We are following every step, every move and capturing every moment. So as soon as someone steps in front and runs up to you and says, who are you? Is this a reality show? All of that is captured." Packages range from $500 to a $1,000.
There’s no way that it’ll make you famous, but it could get you into places that you wouldn’t be able to get in to normally. When he was younger Danny would call clubs pretending to be a Tonight Show producer saying that Mick Jagger was going to appear on the program with ‘Danny Partridge’ as his bass player. Danny would show up to the club, ask for Mick and be immediately escorted in and treated like a king. Mick has a habit of not showing up, however one night when Danny showed up at the club’s door asking for Mick he was escorted upstairs and Mick was actually there. When Danny told him about the stunt he had been pulling for over a decade Mick replied ‘Aren’t you the cheeky bastard’ and waved him off like a cheap whore.
7:34 – Who Would Win In A Fight: Pirates or Ninjas?
Danny goes with ninjas, trained assassins. Shila picks the filthy, no honor, no conscience, dirty, do anything pirates. Ninjas are trained killers, Metro goes with ninjas. You don’t hear about ninjas taking over oil tankers for ransom. Where’s the fight taking place? At sea, on a beach, or an abandoned warehouse? Warehouse!
The first caller goes with pirates because of their desperation, scurvy, and their willingness to spend time alone that would drive them insane. Jason goes with ninjas, they’re stealthy and the pirates are drunk all the time. Arlene takes ninjas, pirates are lazy and ninjas are training non-stop. How could guys with peg legs hold up against swords? There’s a Ninjas of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland? Yes! But you can’t find it.
7:48 – Justin thinks ninjas would win because of Michael Dudikoff, star of American Ninja. Gags brings up that no ninja could stop a bullet. Can ninjas use guns? Gary believes that throwing stars would be deadly versus a slow and cumbersome single load gun. George is on the side of pirates because Chris Farley made a bad ninja. John is on team ninja, pirates don’t plan attacks, but ninjas do.
Pirates are good at sea, but Danny challenges Shila’s point with the fact that ninjas can use their scabbards to breath under water. Tonya calls in with pirates. Pirates used eye patches to train their eyes for fighting in the dark when going below deck on other ships.
8:06 – Entertainment News:
Metallica will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this April 4 in Cleveland. The Bay Area-based foursome will be enshrined in the Rock Hall in its first year of eligibility.

Ozzy Osbourne and his family, along with a cast of well, characters, literally, return to television later this spring with Osbourne's Reloaded, a Fox show one executive says will include "a few old age pensioners being kissed, and stripping grandmas, but it is all good clean fun." When asked why he decided to go back on the boob tube, the (former?) Prince of Darkness and now Prince of Primetime hopeful said, "I'm willing to try anything once… We are a very dysfunctional family, doing a very dysfunctional show.
Danny’s ex-wife has a new reality show coming out titles ‘Reinventing Bonaduce’ which is misleading because Danny’s not in it and she’s only a Bonaduce by marriage. Danny was also scheduled to appear in the second episode of ‘Hidden Talents of the Stars’ showing of his skills on the unicycle, but the program was canceled when Clint Black blew everyone out of the water with his comedy routine.
Veteran actor Ricardo Montalban passed away yesterday at his home in Los Angeles. He was 88. Best known for playing Mr. Roarke on the hit late 70s/early 80s series Fantasy Island, the Mexican born actor came to Hollywood in 1946 and went on to star opposite Esther Williams in three films, Fiesta, On An Island With You and Neptune's Daughter.

Hopefully he’ll talk about it on next week’s Horrible Hollywood Moment.
Samuel L. Jackson's surprise cameo in Iron Man may turn into nothing. Jackson played Nick Fury in the final scene after the film's credits, but he tells the LA Times that he may not be playing Fury in the upcoming Iron Man 2, and he's insinuating that it all comes down to money. "Maybe I won't be Nick Fury. Maybe somebody else will be Nick Fury or maybe Nick Fury won't be in it," said Jackson. "There seems to be an economic crisis in the Marvel Comics world so [they're saying to me], 'We're not making that deal.'"

8:37 – Mr. Skin is on the show now. He is the human encyclopedia of on screen nudity. His skill wasn’t viable until the internet came around. First up is Mrs. Canseco! She appeared in the movie ‘Getting It’ without her shirt on. She’s hot.
Marissa Tomei in ‘The Wrestler’ – Now that she’s in her 40’s she’s getting naked a lot. Last year she won top award for showing flesh in ‘Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead’. She’s pierced in ‘The Wrestler’, but is it real or fake though?
Kate Winslet in ‘The Reader’ – She’ been naked in 10 movies, it’s all or nothing with this girl, she likes to show it all. After a few kids they’re not what they used to be and they’re a little uneven, but she still puts them out there
A caller wants to know about Megan Fox. Nothing from her yet, but there are some nice teasers but there’s a chance that she’ll be nude later this year in a film. Ed wants to ask about Eliza Dushku, who shows her bits in the movie ‘Alphabet City’. Mr. Skin then goes on to show his thorough knowledge, Shila asks about Tiffany Amber Theisen who was almost naked in ‘Burried Secrets’.

9:03 – News with Shila:
A 3-year-old boy named Adolf Hitler and his two Nazi-named younger sisters were removed from their New Jersey home last week and placed in state custody, police said. The Campbells made national news last month when a ShopRite supermarket refused to sell them a birthday cake with Adolf Hitler's name on it. The story generated a slew of angry Internet chatter. Adolf Hitler Campbell and his sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, were taken from their Holland Township, N.J., home on Friday by the state's Division of Youth and Family Services (DYFS). Their father, Heath Campbell, is expected in court Thursday in Flemington, N.J., in connection with the case. Although child services can not currently comment on the cae, the state's "decision to remove a child is based on the safety and well being of the child and the risk to that child, not simply because a name”,
Michael Irvin might have gotten robbed at gunpoint Monday night, but it turns out that he's a former Dallas Cowboy, so it's all good. According to a police report, Irvin was stopped at a red light in North Dallas when two men in a truck pulled up next to him. The passenger in the truck rolled down the window, so Irvin did the same, thinking the two men recognized him from TV. That's when one of the men pulled out a semiautomatic gun. Irvin said he was afraid but that nothing happened because the other guy in the car was a big Cowboys fan. One of the guys was heard saying, "Oh, that's Michael Irvin, with the Dallas Cowboys," and instead of shooting or robbing Irvin, they all ended up talking shop. "We started talking about the Cowboys and everything," Irvin said in the Dallas Morning News. "Then they got back on the highway."
President-elect Barack Obama wants to conclude his inaugural oath with the words "so help me God," but a group of atheists is asking a federal judge to stop him. Atheists and agnostics also want to stop the use of prayers during the inaugural celebration. The Justice Department and attorneys general from all 50 states have filed motions at the federal court asking for the lawsuit to be thrown out. The oath dictated by the Constitution is 35 words long and reads: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." The National Archives says that George Washington added the words "so help me God" when he took the oath at his 1789 inaugural, and most presidents have used it since. However, some have argued that the first eyewitness account of a president using those words came at President Chester Arthur's inauguration in 1881.
Three men have been arrested on charges of theft, on a large scale, from a Forman Mills warehouse in Pennsauken, NJ. And authorities say it was an inside job. Last summer, it is alleged that the three stole more than a half-million dollars worth of items -- Dickies brand work clothes and school uniforms for the most part. Jason Laughlin with the Camden County prosecutor's office says the three would come in several times a week, at night, and shut off security cameras: "They would remove (the merchandise) from the warehouse with U-Hauls they rented privately, move it to private storage units, and would then sell it to vendors who would move the material at flea markets." All three are facing theft charges. As for their jobs, they were laid off last month.
A 33-year-old mother, who was accused of identity theft, pled not-guilty by reason of insanity. The judge agreed. Yesterday, Wendy Brown was sentenced to 3 years in a mental health facility. Wendy Brown posed as her 15-year-old daughter. She enrolled in High School and even practiced with the cheerleading squad. Wendy had an urge to (quote) "relive her glory days and be a cheerleader". School officials believed Brown appeared to be more mature than a 15-year-old student. However, her behavior was typical for a high schooler. She’s overwhelmed with homework & obsessed with boys.
9:26 – Correll Buckhalter is on the show. He’s getting fired up for Sunday’s NFC Title Game. It’s a very serious game. When you get careless or lazy is when you have bad games. Danny is fascinated by the challenges Buck has faced. He tore ligaments in his second year with the Birds, it wasn’t easy. He had be injury free in High School and college. The chance to play in a Super Bowl far outweighs the pain of busted knees. Correll owns a trucking company named General 28 Trucking; he got the nickname ‘The General’ from ESPN’s Chris Berman. Buck also did some training with a boxing instructor to condition and got himself into shape after ACL surgery.
9:55 – Danny’s Final Thought: It’s my Final Thought with an addition really; we were talking to Correll Buckhalter, number 28 of the Eagles. This is the difference between good and great: good people tear a ligament and fall down screaming in pain; great people, that end up coming back, tear a ligament and are curious, ‘What is this sensation?’ Well it’s call agony and you just don’t seem to care about it. I think everybody’s slogan should be play hurt. That means you can just play harder than the last guy. So my Final Thought is really to give him my courage award, which is of course my salute to the Cowardly Lion and courage.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/14/09
6:02 – Danny is feeling yummilicious today. Years ago a guy that Danny did a show with asked his fiancée to show her engagement ring to Carson Daly and added some crude comment that offended Carson. A reporter wanted to follow Danny yesterday and showed up at Danny’s gym at 4:30 am to watch him train. Danny’s workouts include throwing almost 1000 punches in a three minute round. After a rough day Danny’s girlfriend wanted to go tanning. Then she wanted to go to a bar called Danny’s. It turns out the bar is really a novelty fetish shop. Danny was surprised that some of the fetish and S&M gear, which he is not a fan of. Pain does not equal pleasure. As it turns out it wasn’t a bar, but there was full gladiator gear!
Danny also picked up a Sunny Leone film, it’s not as action packed as he likes. She’s coming in later this week, maybe she can get it then.
6:44 – Sue calls in to talk about watching the Eagles with friends and family. There are assigned seats, if you’re not a regular you have to sit on the floor. Chris watches the game with his dad because he doesn’t get around that well. Danny would watch fights with his father; usually they were the ones doing the fighting. They do some drinking too, Chris and his dad each blaze through a case of beer during the game.
7:01 – News with Shila:
A pilot wanted on financial fraud charges parachuted out of his plane over Alabama and allowed the aircraft to crash in neighboring Florida in an apparent attempt to fake his death, sheriff's investigators said on Monday. That’s a guy that has faith in his abilities.
Philadelphia City hotels and tourism officials are marketing the upcoming three-day Martin Luther King weekend – including the President-elect's scheduled stop here Saturday – as a chance to take part in Barack Obama's historic inauguration without the expense and hassle of going to Washington, D.C.
Thieves were caught on tape at the Moores Shopping Center in Elkins Park stealing thousands of dollars worth of fur coats. They came in earlier in the day to scope out a high-end clothing shop. They returned six hours later.
Ideas hatched after an evening of drinking usually lose their gleam come morning. But that wasn't the case for Beer Runners, a beer delivery service started by three married couples who got the inspiration Halloween night when no one was sober enough to pick up more brew. "We ran out of beer and just started talking about it," said Jon Fox, 32, a cable splicer for Verizon. "We talked about it all night long." Danny is impressed with the ingenuity. It would work in Philly with the PLCB run liquor stores that are never close to beer stores.
7:18 – 50 Days of Metallica! What if Metallica lived in your house for 50 days? That would be too much to take. Want to meet James, Robert, Kirk and Lars? Go here and follow directions.
7:34 – Robert Schimmel is on the phone. Danny’s known him for over 20 years. He’s been cancer free for eight years. He had a sitcom deal and was lined up to have a great television show, but he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He’s rooting for Patrick Swayze. Robert has a new stand up special and a book. You can see the special on Showtime tonight at 11.
One night when Robert was doing a show in Las Vegas and Carrot Top was in the audience and came up to say that he liked Robert’s act so much that he paid for tickets, something that he didn’t have to do. A native New Yorker, Robert was rooting for the Giants last week.
Robert is married to a woman that’s two years older than his daughter. His ex burned him bad. Robert can take solace in the fact that Danny’s alimony payment is huge. He came home from the hospital to find his wife with another guy and her divorce lawyer came after his cash. Robert Schimmel: Life Since Then on Showtime at 11pm tonight.
7:54 – Danny Bonaduce’s Horrible Hollywood Moment:
Did Danny ever do drugs with anyone from American Idol?
When he was at Eagle 106 he would introduce Paula Abdul at malls. When he got married Danny didn’t change, but his wife Gretchen started acting like royalty. One night Danny came home to a huge party that his wife was throwing with all sorts of crazy spectacle and Paula Abdul passed out in his backyard. She was with someone that Danny knew. This was years before American Idol and Danny realized that he could pretend he was talking to someone and look up her skirt.
Ryan Seacrest worked at the same station as Danny and they’d pass in the halls and one day he bumped shoulders with Danny and didn’t apologize. Danny spun him around and let him know it was rude. Just because he paid for a personal trainer doesn’t mean he got big enough to act as tough as he was. Shila is certain that Seacrest likes men, but having worked with him Danny says that he’s straight. The reason that he won’t answer questions about his sexuality is that it give the person questioning him power in the situation and he doesn’t want to give up that ground.
8:10 – Entertainment News:
Eddy Curry, a center for the Knicks, is being accused by a former limo driver of not paying owed money, sexually harassing him and berating him with racist slurs. In other words, Curry's apparently been a busy boy. The stunning court papers claim Eddy Curry, a married father of three, repeatedly approached chauffeur David Kuchinsky "in the nude," allegedly telling him, "Look at me, Dave, look" and "Come and touch it, Dave." Usually scandals involve dead girls. If he held the job for longer than a year Danny smells a rat. If this guy doesn’t have videotape then the driver is lying.
T-Mobile USA Inc. has pulled its TV spots starring Charles Barkley following his drunk-driving arrest in Arizona on New Year's Eve. In a statement, a T-Mobile spokesman noted that the campaign featuring Barkley has been successful, but "given the recent developments, for the time being, we've replaced TV ads featuring Mr. Barkley with more general-market advertising."
Poison frontman Bret Michaels has confirmed that his band is in talks to tour with Def Leppard later in the year. Speaking to CNN about his upcoming activities, Michaels said, "I've got a huge announcement, which actually just happened this morning. Def Leppard and Poison are gonna go out on the road this summer. And the reason that's exciting for me is I know it will be the rock tour this summer." Danny’s neighbor is Viv Campbell from Def Lep. He gave Danny’s son lessons on soccer and gave Danny guitar lessons. Lots of pressure!
Danny takes a call about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie blowing off Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet of the Golden Globes. Hollywood royalty doesn’t have time for the host of American Idol. Danny would appear at some Disney premieres for free and work the red carpet so his kids could see the movies they wanted to. He’d talk to whoever wanted to talk to him, but people that are higher up the list will select who they talk to and when they talk to them.
8:40 – Sunny Leone is coming in on Friday, want to come in and get a lap dance at Club Bone-A-Duce? Send an e-mail here.
8:51 – Metro has been on and off again with the girl he was together with for two years. Metro has a Facebook page, Amy was tagging photos from her birthday from November. As he went through the photos Amy is flirting a little too hard with some buff dude, who’s grabbing her ass at one point and her underwear is visible. Fully uncool according to Danny. Next photo they’re intertwined. Spike comes in and he lets out some painful howls. Metro wrote Amy a text about her photo shoot from her birthday party. Metro’s not usually a jealous guy, Shila thinks it’s innocent. Spike disagrees that it’s not innocent and it’s inappropriate. It turns out that it’s her girlfriend’s boyfriend and they were joke pictures. Shila wants to know why Metro wasn’t at the birthday party to begin with.
9:02 – Metro feels like a jerk now because he flipped out over a friend. How is it that they were together for two years and he never met this guy? Amy is on the phone defending herself. If they were serious would Amy have let her friend Natalia post the photos? Danny thinks she’s humiliating Metro because she’s mad at him. She’s going to take them down now because Metro’s feelings are hurt, she thought they were funny.
9:11 – Chuck from Doylestown calls in to ask why she didn’t show Metro before posting them. It wasn’t Amy that posted them. Another caller wants to know where Amy’s apology is and it’s a serious lack of respect on her part after Metro apologized. She informs everyone that she apologized already on the phone. Zoli takes Metro’s side; it was rubbing it in to Metro that she was having fun at a party that she wasn’t at. Metro defends himself on having photos taken with porn stars that come on the show. Danny invites her to Club Bone-A-Duce, but apparently she’s not allowed at the station at times like those. Amy has no disrespect for Metro, and ends the call.
9:32 – News with Shila:
Five people were charged with what the state attorney general's office described as a theft ring targeting electronics and credit cards left in vehicles parked outside nearly three dozen country clubs in the Philadelphia suburbs and neighboring states. The cards were used to buy high-end items from retail stores that were then sold on the black market, early last year, they began breaking into the vehicles, looking for credit cards but also taking other items, including computers, iPods and navigational devices, the report said. He went into unlocked vehicles, or used a master key to get in, or broke windows with golf balls to make it seem they had been struck by wayward shots, the report said. At least 34 clubs were hit between early May and mid-September -- some more than once. Most were in Philadelphia's western suburbs, but five were in New Jersey and one was in Delaware. Then drove to retail stores with and purchased items before the owner of the stolen credit card had time to cancel it.
Three teenage girls who allegedly sent nude or semi-nude cell phone pictures of themselves to and three male classmates in a western Pennsylvania high school who received them, are charged with child pornography. Police in Greensburg, about 30 miles east of Pittsburgh, say the girls are 14 or 15 and the boys charged with receiving the photos are 16 or 17. None are being identified because most criminal cases in Pennsylvania juvenile courts are not public. Police say Greensburg Salem High School officials learned of the photos in November. That's when a student was seen using a cell phone during school hours, which violates school rules. The phone was seized and the photos were found on it.
Is there anything more transfixing than the backside of a beautiful woman. Perhaps that's why one U.K. lapdancing club has decided to take advantage of most men's inability to look away from a nice peice of ass by selling ad space on dancer's bare butts. Dan Phillips, the enterprising booking agent for the Platinum Lounge in Cheshire, came up with the idea to stencil 15cm by 10m ads for local businesses on human canvases with body paint. "Local firms can sponsor as many of the girls as they wish and we hope the novelty of the scheme will ensure their message will stick in the minds of those people visiting the club," he says. Dan compares the bootymercials to Formula 1 driver's racing suits and says corporate sponsors will be offered a special deal for their clients to visit the club.
9:50 – Danny wants to take on The Sandman from ECW after he fights Canseco. This is Danny’s fifth fight with promoter Damon Feldman and the first time that there’s any mention of death in the release. Damon has to cover himself on this one, Danny signs it. The fight is only 10 days away Canseco talking smack? He put up $10,000 cash as a side bet. If Danny gets out of the first round he gets the cash and another bet for the whole fight. Danny accepts the offer. Danny wants someone to make sure that Canseco’s gloves are inspected thoroughly before the fight.
9:59 – Danny’s Final Thought: Whenever faced with adversity twice your size, cheat.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/13/09
6:02 – Is Metro sick? He doesn’t look so hot today but he’s behind in his daily schedule because he had a friend stay over last night. Danny’s broken a lot of bones, closing in on triple digits. He broke a leg skiing and the snow cat that came to rescue him ran his other leg over and crushed it. Danny’s been hit in the face in all sorts of weather in every season of the year.
When he was 18 Danny moved to New York City to be a Broadway actor. New York was much dirtier then, he headed right to Times Square. Some guy jumped out from an alley and demanded Danny’s money. Danny talked him out of taking his stuff because he threatened violence in the cold, and no one likes fighting in the cold. The cold is starting to set in and makes doing things difficult. Such as motorcycle riding and tanning. Danny wanted to get some color for the Canseco fight so he doesn’t look like Casper. Danny screams mid-life crisis. Shila, because she’s Indian has color and Danny wants some.
6:15 – Yesterday Danny overheard a man make a comment about the state of the economy and it’s relationship to the broken Liberty Bell. Danny shot back that it was ordered in America, made in England, and the reason it broke is that it was labor that was farmed out. Danny’s a renaissance man. TV host, DJ, weather man, pugilist, and historian.
6:35 – When did E.D. become such an epidemic? Every third commercial deals with impotence. Danny’s also fascinated by the new sex toys for women that are very small. Shila’s a fan of sex parties. Danny was supposed to be at the AVN’s over the weekend to help with a hall of fame induction. Danny doesn’t deal well with naked women he can’t have sex with. All the pills, creams, and energy drinks will help with blood flow, but they won’t do jack for desire.
Shila has a Rabbit, but she doesn’t use it much, it makes her feel silly. The oddest gadget Danny saw? Something that combines lube and beer.
6:51 – Carrie calls in to talk about the sex parties she throws for a part-time job. She finds that it’s more informational than provocative and proper use of devices is a large part of her job. Shila doesn’t reach her peak often. Danny’s girlfriend is like a sexual ninja, Shila finds it tough to relax.

President Bush defended his record and named what he thought were some of the achievements and mistakes of his years in office during his final news conference Monday, taking a look back over eight years of an administration marked by the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, a recession and the federal response to Hurricane Katrina.
Daniel Petric, a 17-year-old who was on trial for killing his mom and shooting his dad after being banned from playing Halo 3, has been convicted of aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder and other charges. Since Petric broke into his father's safe to retrieve his copy of Halo 3 while equipping himself with his father's 9mm handgun, Petric's attempted last words to his parents were "Would you guys close your eyes? I have a surprise for you" followed by gun shots.
Melendez brothers still take the cake for shooting their parents while they ate ice cream.
An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls "the best job in the world" -- earning a top salary for lazing around a beautiful tropical island for six months. The job pays 150,000 Australian dollars (105,000 US dollars) and includes free airfares from the winner's home country to Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland's state government announced on Tuesday. Hopefully you’ll get to bring company. If the only company you have is a volleyball named Wilson it’s not such a good job.
Police have arrested a California man for allegedly arranging to sell his 14-year-old daughter into marriage in exchange for $16,000, 100 cases of beer and several cases of meat. Police said they only learned of the deal after the 36-year-old man went to them to get his daughter back because payment wasn't made as promised. The man was arrested Sunday on suspicion of human trafficking.
When Shila’s parents marry her off they won’t get meat and beer, however her family doesn’t eat meat. Danny ate raw horse once, his first wife prepared it for him. There’s only one thing that Danny won’t eat, chodoufo, a rancid bean delicacy that’s an acquired taste. Danny digs Rocky Mountain Oysters.
7:43 – Danny Bonaduce Life Coach:
Dian calls in because her 16 year-old son is on probation and thinks that drugs are the answer to his problems. It’s easy to feel better using drugs, but it doesn’t solve the problems. He’s on probation for simple assault of his grandmother. She was hitting him and he pushed her and then she called the cops. It started out with weed, then to ecstasy, now cocaine. ‘Try’ is codeword for ‘doing currently’. He tested positive for PCP because he was smoking ‘wet’. He lives with her, but is she a bad mom for wanting him to go to rehab now? NO! She can force him into a treatment facility; maybe take him to his P.O. while he’s high to be tested. PCP is some hardcore stuff. Get him to rehab now and he’ll be around to see 30 instead of dying at 19. Assume the worst when dealing with a drug addict, he’s a thief, a liar, a thug, a junkie. No junkie is honest without being caught.
Dave just started seeing a gorgeous girl for two months after an 8 year relationship, but the new girl pounds whiskey and he has to take care of her. He’s falling for her, so Danny says run now. Danny likes a nutty chick, however falling in love with a drunk that forgets the good stuff when she drinks. She’s going to break his heart because all she cares about is drinking.
R.J. has been with a woman for three years and needs to figure out whether to move in with her or stay in his own place. The plan is to maybe move in with her and then buy a house together. Good part: Take the money and put it in a C.D. and bank it. Bad part: You’ll always be a guest in her house if she is the sole owner. Marry her or buy equity in the house and the threat of getting kicked out for an argument isn’t weighing over your head. Rather than live in the same space she’s shared with men before you, start a new life together.
8:08 – Entertainment News:
Game show host and comedian Howie Mandel was expected to be released Tuesday from a hospital where he was taken after he experienced an irregular heartbeat. Howie’s the same guy that would stick surgical gloves on his face and blow them up, now he’s a huge germaphobe, which is why he shaves his head.
Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady got engaged in Los Angeles over the weekend. The New England Patriots quarterback, 31, proposed with a diamond solitaire to the Brazilian supermodel, 28, on Friday.Who’s got more cash? Giselle. She’s worth 150 milllion, with endorsements he’s about half of that.
A new Paris Hilton song has, sadly, made its way onto the internet. The track, dubbed 'Jailhouse Baby' details Hilton's 'tragic' time in the big house in 2007. The heiress was jailed for violating probation on a driving ban. The song talks about all the media hype surrounding her arrest, with lyrics like "helicopters up above, oh what a travesty." Speaking of travesties, let's hope this leaked track is the 'unfinished version'. Hilton is reportedly working on a new album.
8:53 – Top Gadgets from the Consumers Electronic Show in Las Vegas for 2009:
LG Watch/Phone – The phone features a Flash interface, MP3 player, voice calling, text messaging and text to speech. The phone is set to go on sale in Europe sometime this year. It’s cooler than Dick Tracy’s watch/radio. This is way cooler than the calculator watch. If you plug headphones into it you’re back to being a dork.
Electronic Cigarette – The watch battery-powered cylinder, which looks similar to an ordinary cigarette - including an LED tip that flares as a smoker takes a drag - vaporizes a tiny packet of a nicotine and flavoured water solution, creating a heated mist that is drawn into the lungs. What the smoker exhales is water vapour without the tar and other carcinogenic particles that come from burning tobacco. Danny hasn’t had a cigarette since he got his. Shila always wanted flavored cigarettes; kids would be smoking all day. Danny once spent 2k on SkyMall to piss off his wife.
Worst Idea? The Cell Mate:
There are aleady devices that do this job, but much better. Danny once taped a cell phone on his head for a segment he did for his radio show in Chicago where he walked down the street after taking a roofie and collapsed on the sidewalk. Bluetooth head pieces in your ear when not using it is pure nerd.
9:10 – News with Shila:
A federal magistrate refused to revoke bail on Monday for Bernard L. Madoff, the financier accused of operating a $50 billion Ponzi scheme, while signs emerged that his lawyer was actively negotiating a plea agreement that could conclude the baffling fraud case without a trial. Shila thinks he’s attractive. Any man with 50 billion is sexy
A teen was fatally wounded by an off-duty officer after an apparent pursuit following a shooting in the Logan section of the city Monday. Police said an off-duty officer opened fire on two suspects after witnessing the pair open fire on an 19-year-old near Broad and Chew Streets just after 3 p.m. As suspects fled the shooting scene in a red Cadillac, the off-duty officer gave chase. The suspects attempted to flee on foot near Broad and Duncannon Streets. Police said the officer opened fire on an 18-year-old suspect after the teen appeared to reach for his waistband. The second suspect was able to escape.
A Texas death row inmate with a history of mental problems pulled out his only good eye and told authorities he ate it. Andre Thomas, 25, was arrested for the fatal stabbings of his estranged wife, their young son and her 13-month-old daughter in March 2004. Their hearts also had been ripped out. He was convicted and condemned for the infant's death.
A San Diego woman who is auctioning off her virginity said she has now received a bid of $3.7 million, according to a published report. Natalie Dylan, a 22-year-old San Diego woman, said she got the idea for the auction after her sister was able to pay for her college education after prostituting herself for three weeks, according to the London Telegraph.
9:57 – Danny’s Final Thought: I thought this would go without saying, but if you’re really, really hungry for some meat, I would always recommend going for the rib eye. But, if you’re a guy that killed his whole family, apparently a nosh, just go for the good eye.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/12/09
6:01 – Danny is worn out. Friday it was the Sixers game, yesterday’s Eagles game, and workouts for the Canseco fight. Tomorrow Michael Klein from the Inquirer is spending a day with Danny. So he’ll have a reporter following him starting at 4 am up to 10 pm.
Friday at the Sixers game Danny had a great time and was challenged to a flip contest by the mascot Hip Hop. Eagles D crushed Eli’s morale and the Giants didn’t make the proper adjustments. How are the Cardinals still in the playoffs? Shila watched the game by herself at a bar. Saturday was Danny’s day of rest. Danny’s got a history of moving to a town and having the team leave town. This year he’s brought luck to the Eagles. Lots of luck. Somehow Danny takes the Eagles/Cardinals NFC title game to a Beverly Hills hair salon vs. Supercuts. The Cardinals are soft.
6:14 – Shila’s ideal Superbowl is Eagles vs. Steelers. First up the Cardinals though. Danny, from Philly, got into a big fight in Arizona and won, so the Eagles should too. Danny sings a little Berlin in honor of Metro.
6:34 – Danny is worried that his playoff beard make him look like a drifter. He’s fired up that the playoff beard is working though. Metro’s playoff beard is coming in slow. He grew a beard a while ago that never came in so he dyed it dark and it didn’t have such a great reaction with his skin. Metro was also uninvited to an Eagles watching party because he was with his girlfriend and that would have made an odd number, which would be back luck. Friday night Danny went to Delilah’s after the Sixers game and had a great time with his girlfriend. Danny’s new good luck superstition is to go to a strip club before a big game.
6:47 – Jay calls in to say that strip clubs and playoff beards have been working for him. After wearing a bad aluk jersey Justin got Eagles socks and a new Eagles t-shirt and they’ve been on a tear since. Danny can’t wear any jerseys that the Sixers, Phillies, and Eagles have got him because it looks like he’s starved for attention. Zoli has to have a bowl of Lucky Charms on game though even though he can’t stand the taste, loves his Eagles mug, and has to touch the tops of every door in the upstairs hallway. Where does pre-game superstition end and OCD begin? Game day! Mike listens to Mike and Merrill on game day and makes time for the Birds on Sunday and just got a new tattoo. Michelle is keeping her Christmas tree up until the Superbowl. One caller brings up the fact that Danny might have to shave before his fight with Canseco. Danny’s hair won’t be too long before the fight. In boxing some beards are considered advantages. Danny goes through the many ways fights can be stopped. Cuts above the eye can blind you; cuts below the eye are fine. Broken noses are up to the fighter. Some can take swallowing blood while fighting, some can’t. Danny’s head gear won’t cover his chin. John gets so nervous he can’t watch it all the way through, he gets too nervous. Danny can’t fish sober. Before boxing matches Danny locks himself in a bathroom and head butts the door until it opens and then he’s ready to go.
7:09 – News with Shila:
Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich of Illinois was impeached by state lawmakers on Friday, setting the stage for a trial in the Senate, where the governor vowed he would prove his righteousness. He looks like the mysterious third Melendez brother.
Fire crews needed several hours to extinguish a seven-alarm blaze at an apartment complex in North Philadelphia that forced dozens of people from their homes. No injuries were reported. Officials say the blaze was reported shortly after 11 a.m. Saturday in the basement of one of the four buildings of the multistory complex in the Fern Rock section of the city.
Federal officials have not yet identified the cause of a salmonella outbreak striking almost 400 people in 42 states, but state officials in Minnesota said Friday they believe peanut butter may be involved. On Friday, the Minnesota Department of Health said preliminary laboratory testing found salmonella bacteria in a 5-pound container of King Nut brand creamy peanut butter. The tests have not linked it to the type of salmonella in the national outbreak, but additional results are expected early next week.
Paul and Caragh Brooks wanted an off-beat wedding and they got one Friday evening -- at Taco Bell. Caragh Brooks, dressed in a $15, hot pink dress, said her vows with Paul Brooks, who wore a lavender shirt and purple and magenta tie in honor of Taco Bell's colors, in the dining area of the Taco Bell in Normak, Illinois. Danny married a girl the day he met her, but that was at Carl’s Jr.
7:32 – The voice of the Eagles, 94 WYSP’s Merrill Reese is on the show, he’s all smiles. After a shaky start, the Birds defense played extremely well and the offense came along. Merrill didn’t like the McNabb sideline run/phone call because it stopped the clock.
7:38 – Shutting down Larry Fitzgerald, putting pressure on Kurt Warner and limiting turnovers are Merrill’s keys to the game. McNabb had a superb Sunday too. Dave calls in to ask about punching the ball into the end zone when in the red zone. Points are points, but touchdowns are always nice. Westbrook’s not 100% but he stills draws the attention of the defense which helped the offensive line wear down the Giants. He always has big play potential. Danny was impressed with Jon Runyan’s play. 69 always shows up to play on game day.
7:44 – Jay wants to know if stopping Fitzgerald equals a win. Merrill says yes, but it’s not going to be easy. He’s the best receiver in the NFL; the way to affect his play is to get some hardcore pressure on the immobile Kurt Warner. Merrill has to go, so Danny will answer the last two questions about the Eagles. The first caller thinks McNabb picked up the phone to talk to the Giants Defensive Coordinator. Great theory, but Spagnuolo was on the sidelines.
8:01 – Entertainment News:
The 66th Golden Globes were last night, here are the winners.
Clint Eastwood has had the best movie opening of his long and esteemed career. His "Gran Torino" revved up the winter box office with $29 million in ticket sales in its first weekend of wide release, according to studio estimates Sunday. It's Eastwood's best opening ever, topping the $18 million his "Space Cowboys" made in 2000. In what Eastwood, 78, has said may be his last starring performance, he plays a disgruntled war veteran who reluctantly comes to the aid of his neighbors.
Former Eight is Enough star Willie Aames is battling back after surviving a suicide attempt on Thanksgiving Day. The 46-year-old Charles in Charge actor took a cocktail of alcohol and pills and slashed his throat after suffering a breakdown in Los Angeles. In an interview with Star magazine, Aames reveals he hit rock bottom after he was declared bankrupt; had his car repossessed, and his wife of 22 years, Maylo, asked for a divorce - all within the space of a month.
He fled their Kansas home, rented a room in Los Angeles, and made an attempt on his life. Aames reveals, "I stole a bottle of Jack Daniel's from the guy I was renting the room from. I'd been sober for 20 years when I took that first drink. I was also taking anti-depressants and anti-anxiety pills. It got so bad, I put a knife to my throat and cut myself in six places.
Willie’s been staying at Danny’s house lately. Willie’s good at living off the land and once killed a bear with a stick. A short time ago Willie’s wife asked for a divorce, he went to Danny’s place, got drunk, and tried to kill himself. Danny got him a job as a technical advisor on a nature show. If it keeps Danny’s name in the news then he’s all for it!
After telling a judge of his rampant drug addiction and remorse over how it led to the death of an off-duty cop, Lillo Brancato was given a reduced 10-year sentence that includes three years already served awaiting trial. The once-promising actor, who got his big break starring opposite Robert De Niro in 1993's "A Bronx Tale," also got five years' probation for the December 2005 botched burglary that ended with his junkie pal gunning down Police Officer Daniel Enchautegui. Danny’s idea is to ex child stars come on the show to audition for gigs that they’ll never get. That should make killer radio.
8:20 – Michael Klein from the Inquirer is spending the day with Danny tomorrow as he gets ready for the Canseco fight. He can’t out-muscle Canseco, but he can out-will him. Leading up to a fight Danny hits things with his head so that he, not his opponent, can draw first blood.
Muhammad Ali loves doing magic tricks; however his religion doesn’t allow him to deceive people, so immediately after ever trick he’ll show you how he did it. A magic trick Danny would like to perform is to sneak a horse shoe in his glove and land a punch square on Canseco’s chin and take him down in the ring. That’s not against his religion.
8:48 – Beasley Reece cohost of the 94 WYSP Coach's show and sports anchor for CBS3 is on the phone. He’s a former Giant. The Giants paid for his house, but he bleeds green now. The guys on the Eagles are his friends now. He’s got no relationship with Eli Manning.
Beasley takes a call asking if it was Beasley that Donovan called on the Giants sideline. Smiling and having fun, that’s the kind of Donovan that Beasley likes. It’s been a rollercoaster year and the team fights back like Danny does. The Cardinals learned a little offensive balance since the Thanksgiving game and the score shouldn’t be as outlandish this time around. Ed calls in to ask about the use of Buckhalter. He’s got a great yards per carry average, catches well out the backfield and blocks well. Westbrook always has big play potential every time he touches the ball. He runs with more power than Westbrook.
Beasley thinks the offensive line and Jason Avant don’t get enough credit. The O Line has played very well as a group with a handful of injuries over the season. Danny thinks the Eagles won because in the week leading up to the game they practiced like they wanted it more and that’s where it matters most.
9:40 – Danny’s willing to go the distance for sponsors of the show. He’ll get a tattoo of your company’s logo if you buy time on the show. Danny vs. Jose Canseco is not a fair fight, but Danny vs. Other Radio Shows is fair and a very attainable win. Vince Papale is the guest referee of the Bonaduce/Canseco fight. Once in a celebrity fight Danny and the other guy locked up and tumbled, while getting up the dude nailed Danny five times in the face while he was on his knees. What did Danny do? Body slam the guy, put a knee in his chest and landed one right in the face. Things shouldn’t get that out of hand against Canseco. Vince won’t let it!
9:58 – Danny’s Final Thought: They say that New York City has the best bagels in the world and do you know why? It’s because of the water. They say Chicago has the best pizza in the world and it’s because of the water. Well, Vince Papale is from Philadelphia and he beat the odds. I’m fighting a giant because they can’t find anyone else for me to beat and I’m from Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Eagles have already beat the odds. Know what’s in the water in Philadelphia? Victory! Turn on your tap, have a sip.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/9/09
6:02 – Early this morning Danny woke up with a panic attack, worried he was waking up at 1:28pm rather than 1:28 am. Danny’s girlfriend Amy was very worried about what parts of his reputation were true and what were myths. Some things Danny did no one would believe so he doesn’t talk about that stuff much. He did once wrestle a wild alligator in Mexico after drinking because the gator was staring him down. He’s still alive, so he must have done well. In an effort to calm Amy’s nerves he would tell her that whenever he walked out the door all he did was work to get back to her. Shila thinks that’s cheesy, but it worked for Danny, he got laid, and he meant it and still means it.
6:10 – Shila thinks that she can get laid at any moment of the day. Danny wants her to prove it. She declines to do it at the moment, but she’s working. Maybe she can’t do it right now. Dan calls in to offer himself to Shila. She’s not interested, however now Shila has her point proven. Roger the cop says that he’d take care of Shila at any time. If Shila replies that if she wasn’t a whore she’d take him up on it. What??? One reason Shila doesn’t have sex is that she has a guilty conscience and imagines her mother in the room when she’s with a guy. That wouldn’t stop Danny at all.
6:20 – Dan, a caller, brings up that Danny can talk about getting sex all he wants, but he can’t prove it unless he brings his girlfriend Amy in to show everyone. Sometimes Danny has sex with her when she’s sleeping, the rule is that she can just lay there and not do anything. Amy is on the phone now. She says that they average about 15 times a week; yesterday they did it 4 times. BAM! There you go.
6:35 – Shila won money on last night’s NCAA football championship game. She has a bookie? Danny was a junkie and he doesn’t have bookie. She now has extra money for car payments!
6:40 – Danny is bad at skee ball and pool, Shila’s a great skee ball player.
6:50 – Mack Rawland writes a yearly column predicting what celebrities will die, the cause of death, and their chance of surviving the year. Danny takes calls about the list. First up is Patrick Swayze, tough but true. He’s number 6, with cancer and a 55% chance of dying. The next one is Artie Lange, who is number 8 on the list. Owen Wilson is not on the list. Amy Winehouse is number 5 with 60%. Either she’ll overdose or clean up and die in a plane crash. Danny explains that one smokes crack, there is no injecting it. Lindsay Lohan is number 74 with a slim chance in a bizarre accident. Andy Rooney from 60 Minutes is number 1 with heart attack is the listed cause of death and 75% chance of kicking the bucket. Where’s Danny on the list? His probable cause of death is Jose Canseco. Danny is number 63 with the probable cause of death listed as overdose. Danny’s done with the drugs, he’s had enough. Only a 4% chance of death in 2009!
7:06 – News with Shila:
President-elect Barack Obama will call for quick action on a fiscal stimulus package in a speech on Thursday aimed at reassuring Americans that he is determined to stem the economic crisis. No president ages well in their time in office. How will we judge the new president? With the Obameter!
The Centers for Disease Control is investigating a 48-state outbreak of salmonella poisoning and some of those cases are right in Pennsylvania. Danny doesn’t believe in salmonella. Shila’s had it and it wasn’t pretty.
7:17 – Jon Runyan of the Eagles is on the line. This far into the season, no matter the pain, he still shows up to work. In the NFL size is overrated, but you have to be able to manage pain. Jon’s been able to avoid catastrophic injury. No matter how he feels on Saturday, he always manages to get himself ready to barbarically destroy defensive linemen. Danny’s girlfriend, Amy, has a crush on Runyan because he was wearing Crocs when she met him. He has Uggs on now. Jon used to be a lot nastier on the field until he started getting fined by the NFL. He makes up for any lack of athleticism with his ‘knock your head off’ attitude. The game is the easy part; it’s the distractions leading up to games that can wear away at your mental edge. After the loss in Washington it looked grim, but every team needs little luck to win a Superbowl. You can hear Sunday’s Eagles/Giants game right here on the flagship station of your Philadelphia Eagles, 94 WYSP
7:43 – Forgiveness Friday with Brother Bonaduce!
John is today’s first sinner! He has an identical twin brother and slept with his girlfriend. It wasn’t deception, she knew he wasn’t her boyfriend. God created Eve with one of Adam's bones. He created twins with two bones, and that's what this girl got.
Greg, who is fighting heroin addiction. He hasn’t used in a while, but he did lots of bad things when he was shooting up. Victimizing the innocent is a sin. Stealing to hurt himself in the past is a sin too, but he’s helped himself break free.
8:00 – Entertainment News:
Former basketball star Dennis Rodman, country singing star Clint Black and comedienne Joan Rivers and her daughter Melissa were among the 16 contestants announced today for the upcoming season of the NBC competition series Celebrity Apprentice.

Plans for Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones to hit the road as Led Zeppelin in 2009 have been scrapped - because the rockers can't find a singer to replace Robert Plant. Just a day after Peter Mensch, a spokesman for Page's management firm, defended the rock duo's plans to tour without their famous frontman, he is now attempting to end the speculation about a semi-reunion by telling Music Radar Led Zeppelin is "completely over".Danny had his fingers broken by Robert Plant’s bodyguards one night. Danny went to a movie premiere with a woman that knew Plant. Plant spat at the woman and Danny went to speak up for her and ended up with some busted digits.
Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, an Ultimate Fighting Championship mixed martial arts contender, avoided jail time Thursday by striking a plea bargain that will allow a felony charge against him to be dropped next year if he complies with stipulations including routine visits to mental health physicians.
8:15 – Merrill Reese is on the line. Danny loves Merrill’s big touchdown calls. One of the great ones was a punt return by Vai Sikahema for a touchdown at Giant Stadium in 1992. Merrill has the same routine before every game. He takes a bath while going over stats and player’s numbers so that they’re top of mind during huge action, the he showers. He also eats the same breakfast. Danny’s obsessed with the Eagles playoff beards. The tradition started in hockey. If you concentrate on the games, you don’t have time to shave. Kickers are the most fragile on the team when it comes to superstitions. Merrill’s going to wear the same outfit he had on the last time the Eagles beat the Giants. To win the game the Birds have to keep the ball and limit turnovers. Mcnabb is a better QB than Eli and with all the weapons, if the Eagles can hold onto the ball, the game is theirs.
8:26 – Shila doesn’t understand why Philly fans love/hate/love Donovan. It’s all about winning. Sports are like soap opera for men. There is no hate, there’s only apathy because the fans still care.
8:38 – Guess Your Seat: It’s section 235, but what’s the row?
8:52 – Football Fan Phone Fight: Eagles vs. Giants
Eric is a Giants fan living in PA. Matt, an Eagles fan starts swinging right away. Eric has a foul mouth, so he’s gone. Rich replaces him. Matt does well until his misspells Eagles doing the Eagles chant. Not good. Matt wins anyways!

It was Sunday morning when the thief pulled into a Phoenixville, Pa. gas station, looking for a jump start. Surveillance video of the crime shows the man walking into the station while the clerk is helping other people. Within moments, he helps himself to a donation jar on the counter, tucks it under his coat, and leaves. "Not only did he come back in, he bought a cup of coffee and, I think it was a Gatorade, with the money he stole in the jar," said Christian Slawecki, the clerk working at the time who can been seen in the surveillance video. The thief must have known he was being photographed. The surveillance camera and monitor are right there behind the counter. Apparently he didn't care. The money was being collected by Ride for Kids, a charity that raises money for pediatric brain tumor research.
State police are searching for a man who is impersonating a police officer in the Kennett Square and West Chester areas.

9:39 – Shila is surprised Danny’s playoff beard isn’t thicker. He auditioned for a gig at CBS 3 looking like he lost a street fight to Rocky and Rambo.
9:49 – Danny doesn’t have a local boxing trainer. A heavy bag is good, but he needs to work with someone. Would Danny work with a woman trainer? Perhaps. He owes Laila Ali a big thank you for bringing him a boxing glove signed by her father. He’s got some other cool autographs from guys like Jake LaMotta. Danny needs some sparring party. Shila thinks Canseco’s size is overrated. He used to swing a bat for a living and crush baseballs, now he could crush Danny’s head with his fist.
9:57 – Danny’s Final Thought: “In my hand I hold the 100 Most Likely People to Die in 2009. It is well researched, it is well written, and it seems like it has some air of accuracy to it. When I see that Artie Lange is #8 and I am #63, my final thought is ‘I’m just not trying hard enough.’”
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/8/09
6:02 – Shila looks like an Ed Hardy pimp today. Danny has a bone to pick with Shila. Last night Danny got home and his girlfriend Amy was a twitter because Shila bragged all about her big day of beauty at Joseph Anthony Salon. Because Danny and Metro make Shila nervous she went to relieve some stress at a salon with Danny’s girlfriend. Shila forgot to shave her legs before the massage with a masseuse named Sean who plays her like an instrument. It was 10 times better than not having sex.
6:18 – Danny’s girlfriend heard all about the great massage and Danny got competitive and offered to give her one. Danny started an intense leg rub, up one side, down the other and then worked the back, arms, hands and all over. Amy was moaning and enjoying it, but offended Danny when she told him where the sore spots where she wanted him to pay attention were. The effort Danny put in to compete with massage Shila got Amy nice and relaxed. Upon sex, the ‘chocolate cake moaning’ didn’t stop. After all of it Danny wished she turned into chocolate cake, which would’ve made the perfect evening.
6:37 – Leading up to today’s edition of ‘Who’d Win In A Fight?’ Danny wants to have Eagles fans battle dumb Giants fans.
6:49 – Guido from Philly, an Eagles fan vs. Matt, a Giants fan originally from New York now lives in East Falls. Guido doesn’t start off too hot, but comes back. Matt’s great line is that the Eagles D couldn’t comb Eli Manning’s hair. He wears a helmet on the field, so what does that matter? Shila liked the Giants fan, but Danny and Metro go with Guido. Guido wins.
7:05 – News with Shila:

Philadelphia narcotics officers made a major bust -- $1 million worth of heroin is off the streets and so are alleged dealers. Officers removed box after box filled with pre-packaged heroin from a row home in Oxford Circle in the Northeast section of the city.

An Australian man broke into three adult shops, had sex with blow up dolls named "Jungle Jane" and then dumped his plastic conquests in a nearby alley, local media reported Wednesday.. He was charged with B&I, breaking and inflating. Shila’s never been to an adult book store or sex shop with a peep show. Danny knows a guy who got a huge scar on his face from getting trapped in the peep show hatch while trying to yell something at the girl dancing.
7:15 – Maureen, a caller went to a live sex show in New York City once. She laughed out loud because the guy performing looked at his watch while ‘working’. Danny went to Amsterdam to introduce the Rolling Stones while fighting to stay sober. That was a recipe for disaster. The first time Shila went to a strip club seven girl were lined up playing ‘leap frog’ and she thought it was raunchy. Once when he was in England with his family Danny dropped by a brothel. Danny had a great time.
7:24 – Pat, a listener calls in to talk about his lesbian roommates playing leap frog, but he doesn’t do a good job of telling the story. Metro spent his senior year of High School at Fantasy Showbar watching his friends lather up girls in the showers.
7:41 – Danny’s found great new site FMyLife.com, a site where people can anonymously tell the world about their epic fails.
#803 - Today, I met a really hot chick while waiting for the bus. We spoke for 4 hours till we got to our destination. She hugged me and we parted ways. Later that day I realised she stole my phone. F My Life.

After getting rave reviews for his role in The Wrestler Mickey Rourke might be the next Iron Man villain. Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell are in talks to play the villains in "Iron Man 2," which is eyeing a spring start ahead of a May 2010 release. A very tight lid is being kept on the script, but it is known that Rourke would play a tattooed Russian heavy named Ivan who becomes the Crimson Dynamo. Danny had a nice exchange with Mickey at a bar once, even though they both enjoy boxing.
According to Star magazine Sarah Jessica Parker's husband, Matthew Broderick, was cheating on her with a younger woman. Now, they report that the beloved Sex and the City superstar has begun house hunting in New York City — solo! Danny does not find Sarah Jessica Parker attractive at all.

Shane, an amateur wrestler calls in to challenge Danny to match. He doesn’t think that Danny knows what it’s like to take bumps in the ring. Danny’s a PROFESSIONAL wrestler. He might not be good, but he got paid!
8:23 – Who Would Win in a Fight? Rocky vs. Rambo.
Which Rocky, all six of them? No, it’s not a gang rumble. It’s Rocky I vs. Rambo I, a fist fight in the alley, but street weapons could be used.
Danny takes Rocky for sentimental reasons. Metro goes with Rambo, a trained killer. Danny counters with the fact that no one is hunting Rambo, which is how he usually fights.
8:28 – Mike details some complications in the fight. Rocky trains for fights chasing chickens, but Rambo can survive in the woods with no weapons. They both took on big Russians too. Ken goes with Rambo too and Danny’s a freak for going with Rocky. Rambo’s a thinker and uses what he has available. Nancy goes with Rambo. Spiro says that Rambo takes a lead and Rocky comes back, but there needs to be a sequel because Mr. T needs work. Rocky did fight Tommy Gunn in an alley, and bare knuckle fight with a guy who’s HIV positive.
8:36 – Danny gets into Bruce Lee’s use of nunchucks and the fact that Danny is better at them than Bruce. He’ll prove it too. Dave goes with Rambo. Danny loves to run the Art Museum steps like Rocky, it inspires him. One caller goes with Rocky because Rocky never gives up. He doesn’t quit and his conditioning could be better. Junior says that once they connect at the same time they’ll both be knocked out. By vote Rambo wins, but Danny was unwavering in his loyalty to Rocky.
8:56 – Danny’s a little worried upon hearing the news that Jose Canseco has hired one of the world’s best boxing instructors. Danny thinks that he stands a good chance if the fight goes to decision. If Canseco loses he’ll have zero dignity left. Maybe Danny can record some shows to air from beyond the grave. A caller doesn’t think the fight’s going to be good for Danny. Danny will not stop no matter the pain. Giving up is NOT an option.

A truce meant to allow humanitarian aid into war-torn Gaza crumbled minutes after it began Wednesday, while Israeli and Palestinian diplomats considered talks that could lead to a more lasting cease-fire.
Philadelphia Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers says smoking caused a fatal fire at a high-rise apartment building. Firefighters were called to the Norris Apartments in North Philadelphia before dawn Wednesday. A 46-year-old woman was pronounced dead at Temple University Hospital just before 6 a.m. Shila’s mother doesn’t know she smokes, she hides it when she’s home and sneaks cigarettes by hanging out the window. Metro would use a ‘terminator’, exhaling through a toilet paper roll filled with fabric softener.
Robert Vassallo and Angellette Smith never meant to spend the holidays in Cuba. They were forced to wade ashore in the communist nation shortly before Christmas when the boat they were sailing around the Caribbean crashed into a reef off the country's western coast. Eventually, they were jailed in Havana. American officials in Cuba who helped them get off the island declined to identify them because of privacy concerns but confirmed their general story.
A new report dramatically claims that Nintendo's Wii Sports is already the best selling game of all time, topping Nintendo's former sales leader Super Mario Bros. Danny doesn’t understand why two plumbers in overalls are trying to save a princess, shouldn’t they be fixing toilets? Where’s their knight’s armor? Maybe you just can’t plan for a princess rescue.
9:22 – For Thanksgiving Danny’s mom would cook him chicken because he wasn’t a fan of turkey which would lead to a tantrum from his father accusing Danny Partridge of being too good to eat turkey with the Bonaduce family.
9:31 – Shila thinks that Danny’s Eagles playoff beard will make him look like a leprechaun. You can see Gordon’s playoff beard page here. He already has a full beard, which makes the growth contest skewed.
9:35 – Jeff, the Program Director was very upset that Danny said he was a cutie patootie on the air yesterday. He plans to shave his playoff beard into a goatee no matter what happens Sunday. He thinks his facial hair growth is too patchy to keep into next week. He also wants to be taken seriously and doesn’t want to explain that he can’t grow a beard. Maybe Danny could lend him a little testosterone.
9:54 – Danny’s Final Thought: You know that song, ‘Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door’? You know why you’re knocking? Theres’ three doors. Apparently going to heaven is a lot like Let’s Make a Deal. You want to go to heaven through Door #1, Door #2, or Door #3? Here are my three doors to death today. Talking about fighting Jose Canseco, and the obvious betting today was that I’m going to at least have to blow into a tube to get my wheelchair to the radio station if not completely die. I have made a statement that I am faster with nunchucks than Bruce Lee ever was and the video tapes are flying in. Apparently the guy took a few more lessons before passing away. Unfortunately out of Canseco and Bruce Lee, the most dangerous thing I did to my own self preservation was refer to a 27 year-old kid who can’t even grow a beard as a ‘cutie patootie’. I might be outta here, who knows, I could have picked badly.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/7/09
6:01 – Danny’s Final Thought is tough some days because all his clever thoughts happen from 6:00 – 9:59. Danny’s isn’t used to seeing people out and about early in the morning driving around with purpose. There aren’t as many people waiting for buses at 5 am either. Shila prefers living in Philadelphia over New York, The Big Apple is unmanageable and traffic is just a mess. Maybe it’s the economy that has people up early or Philly’s just a hard working town that likes to get stuff done. The way the world is now we have to work long hours to get keep our jobs.
Danny can speak some Japanese. Samurais would carry a patch of rouge so that after a long night of drinking they wouldn’t look hung over when their masters came in. Danny met his first wife, a Japanese woman, at a restaurant and offered to marry her because he thought she should be rewarded for her hard work in America. The more he learned Japanese and she learned English they realized they hated each other.
Trenton makes and Danny takes, all of it. A caller brings up the fact that traffic, like on 76 and 95, are horrible every day and you have to wake up early to get where you need to be on time. Shila doesn’t mind driving in the city, but after two accidents in one week, Philadelphia certainly minds Shila driving on it’s streets.
6:18 – Danny’s never spent the night in jail for all the trouble he’s gotten in to. Danny spent a month with Neil Sedaka? Neil was putting on a floor show for everyone in rehab and one of the nurses scolded him for not taking it seriously, to which Neil replied ‘Snap up bitch!’
6:34 – Danny was in Las Vegas filming a TV show when UFC was just starting to gain popularity. He was filming the pilot for Breaking Bonaduce and a guy came up to ask him about doing Celebrity Boxing versus an Average Joe. With cameras rolling Danny challenged the guy to get all the money in his pocket; the guy tilted his head in confusion. That’s when Danny threw a punch and then grabbed on for dear life until security could break it up. Later on Chuck Lidell paid him back with a 30 second knock out.
6:46 – Danny reads a news story about a parental brawl at a Chuck E. Cheese. Chuck E. Cheese serves beer? Shila liked to swim in the pool of balls. Below are a few, read them all here.
• Brookfield, Wisc.: April 5, 2008
Seven Brookfield Police officers broke up a fight that involved as many as 40 people, according to police reports. The altercation broke out after an uninvited guest showed up at a child's birthday party. No one was arrested. (See police report.)
• Flint, Mich.: Jan. 26, 2008
Flint Township police responded to a call about a large fight at Chuck E. Cheese's that involved as many as 85 people, according to police reports. A fight inside the restaurant between three females erupted, pepper gas was sprayed and people flooded outside the restaurant into the back parking lot.
• Milwaukee, Wisc.: Aug. 11, 2006

He stated the fight started over someone calling his child "ugly." He stated he was not injured, his pride was just hurt.
Danny takes a call from a guy who confirmed that Chuck E. Cheese used to serve beer,but that stopped.
Danny and Eric Estrada were at his son’s birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. Eric was having a good time with his kids and got stuck in a tube while playing. The restaurant had to unbolt the section and pulled him out, it was like a marshmallow gun, but with the guy from CHiPs
7:03 – News with Shila:
Danny wants to reiterate that he finds Shila extremely nailable today.
1. The Battle continues in the Gaza Strip…Artillery fired by Israeli forces struck near a U.N. school in northern Gaza on Tuesday killing at least 30 people and wounding 55, CNN reported. According to the Israeli military, Hamas militants had fired mortar shells at Israeli forces from inside the school, prompting return fire. Meanwhile, the U.S. State Department said on Tuesday it wanted "an immediate ceasefire" in Gaza. U.S. officials stressed that a ceasefire should be "durable, sustainable and not time-limited. This could all have been avoided if Moses had asked for directions many years ago.
Israel's top leaders are meeting to discuss whether to accept a cease-fire plan or expand their military offensive in Gaza. Israel has killed more than 600 Palestinians in the fighting.
2. There will be no criminal charges filed against Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison in the case of the curious incident with his gun in Philadelphia. While a gun registered to Harrison was used in an April 28th shooting, Philly police can't determine who the shooter was and the district attorney's office does not plan to file charges against him. No one was killed in the incident, but a man who was shot in the hand is suing the wide receiver.
3. Federal agents are issuing warnings following the thefts of nearly 70 weapons from dealers leaving gun shows in King of Prussia in recent months.
Agents fear the weapons, many of them high-powered and deadly, are in the hands of dangerous criminals.
Investigators say a total of 26 various rifles, worth more than $200,000, were stolen from a truck outside a King of Prussia restaurant on December 21.
Police say the guns belonged to a firearms dealer who was headed home from a gun show at the Valley Forge Convention Center.
Investigators said one of the stolen guns was found in the hands of a young teenager in West Philadelphia during a car stop.
The ATF is offering a $10,000 reward for arrests in connection to the gun thefts. If you have any information, call 1-800-ATF-GUNS.
4. Officials said a total of five deer ventured onto a property in New Jersey, but two of them crashed through a ground level window into a class room. The bizarre incident happened late Monday morning at the Faith Baptist School in Hamilton Township. The deer startled three students and a teacher who were working on a lesson. They managed to get out and close the door, leaving the deer to trash the room. By early Monday afternoon, animal control officers showed up and tranquilized the animals so they could be taken away from the school. The animals were evaluated for injuries and later released.
Fortunately, no students or teachers were injured.
5. Instead of coffee mugs, how about coffee jugs? A man in a small Maine town has submitted a business proposal for a topless coffee shop! The Vassalboro Planning Board was considering Donald Crabtree's permit request that would convert a one-time motel into a java shop with topless waitresses. Not surprisingly, neighbors have mixed opinions. Some think a topless coffee shop would bring the wrong crowd into their rural town. But others--most likely the men--say they'd like to give the business a shot. Topless coffee shop, they might run out of cream, but they’ll never run out of milk!
7:34 – Just before Christmas Metro broke up with his girlfriend of two years, Amy. Yesterday Amy bought a house without him. Danny sees this as a big issue in reconciling. Metro spends a lot of time at the station and wasn’t taking time for Amy. They broke up on Thursday; she moved out on Saturday and as time went on Metro began to really miss her. Shila sees the purchase of the house as a step to them getting back together. Danny thinks that no matter what happens now, every night he spends at her house he’ll be a guest. Danny noticed that his girlfriend, also named Amy, has taken notice of the Metro break up and started to work harder at keeping a tidy house for Danny. He likes that. Shila thinks that Metro and his ex will put more effort towards each other now.
7:42 – Tom, a caller, understands how Metro is feeling because he’s going through the same thing. Now the girl is getting nailed by another dude she works with. Metro’s never lived by himself before. Danny’s excited that Metro is single now; he’ll be a babe magnet. He’s taking Metro under his wing and pumped up to teach him the ways of Bonaduce.
7:54 – Danny’s been working non-stop to get ready for the Canseco fight. He even punches a heavy bag in the studio during commercial breaks. He has the eye of the tiger, Canseco does not. After a tough workout last night Danny disinfected all the gym equipment he has in the studio. It’s clean so he can be dirty!
8:04 – Entertainment News:
Michael Jackson has six months left to live? Speculation is that Jackson will leave his share of the Beatles music catalog to Paul McCartney. That would make Danny happy. Danny went to High School with Michael, who walked around with a Bible every day. He trashed Danny on an episode of Soul Train, so Danny went to confront him. Danny called him out and ended up in a showdown with ALL of the Jackson kids.
Apple Inc. is cutting the price of some songs in its market-leading iTunes online store to as little as 69 cents and plans to make every track available without copy protection. In Apple's final appearance at the Macworld trade show, Apple's top marketing executive, Philip Schiller, said Tuesday that iTunes song prices will come in three tiers: 69 cents, 99 cents and $1.29. Record companies will choose the prices, which marks a significant change, since Apple previously made all songs sell for 99 cents.
Danny calls iPods Walkmen instead. He can’t even turn one on. Lately Danny’s been a little mean to his girlfriend Amy, and he wants to make it up to her.
On February 1, 2009 Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform in the Bridgestone Super Bowl XLIII Halftime Show in Tampa Bay at Raymond James Stadium. They're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to be part of the on-field audience for the show. Danny once worked as personal security for Bruce Springsteen. He was Bruce’s security at an event and got a little overzealous protecting him from people that loved him.
Ron Asheton, a founding member of the Iggy Pop-fronted rock band, was found dead Tuesday at his home in Ann Arbor, Mich. He was 60. An acquaintance had called police after not being able to get in touch with him for several days, according to authorities, who said it appears that Asheton died of natural causes. They do not suspect foul play.
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck had a new baby. Alyssa Milano is engaged to someone that no one’s ever heard of. Patrick Swazye is on tonight’s Barbara Walters special. Also, Craig Ferguson is married now. Danny has Craig Ferguson’s name tattooed on his ass.
8:35 – The worst daytime talk show that Danny ever appeared on? The View. The hosts disapproved of what they saw on ‘Breaking Bonaduce’. Star Jones took a shot at Danny and he raised the bar by attacking her fraud of a marriage. Danny’s favorite host was Geraldo Rivera. Danny also had his own talk show when daytime talk shows were flourishing. He had to water the show down after the Jenny Jones guest shooting. No one wanted to see sweet and sensitive Danny. He also liked Joan Rivers’ show. Joan’s big stunt was to run urine tests on the guests. He was waiting to see who else got busted in a future episode, but due to laws and threats of lawsuits she couldn’t announce the results. Dr. Phil was goofy. Tyra was overdramatic. Danny was introduced as ‘A Partridge In Pain’.
8:58 – People around the station want Danny to grow a playoff beard to support the Eagles. Shila thought that Metro asked her to grow out her lady hair; she didn’t know what he was talking about. Even though Danny earned some cuts at boxing camp he’s going to grow out some stubble by Sunday. How is a winner determined? Check out Gordon’s playoff beard page here and upload your own photos.
9:12 – News with Shila:
1. Several sports medicine and fitness experts say the suspension of Phillies relief pitcher J.C. Romero brings a new type of supplement to light. Romero recently purchased 6-OXO Extreme. GNC, the store where Romero says he bought the product has released this statement.
It said in part - "GNC only sells products that meet all relevant legal and regulatory standards for the nutritional supplement industry." Maurice "Mo" Orlando is the fitness director at Cherry Hill Health and Racquet Club...
He says supplements like 6-OXO Extreme are well-known and used by body builders.
Although 6-OXO Extreme is not a steroid, it acts like a steroid. Studies done by the manufacturer show the supplement can boost levels of testosterone by 88-percent, an increase; Orlando says that will show on a drug screening test.
However it also says the labeling of the supplement warns: "Use of this product may be banned by some athletic or government associations."
2. Philadelphia police are searching for a missing woman they fear could be in serious danger.
Investigators are desperately searching for 30-year-old Cordelia Hawks. Hawks apparently walked away from a training facility on Westmoreland Avenue Tuesday afternoon.
Hawks, 33, is about 5'5" tall and weighs roughly 275 pounds. She was last seen wearing a tan sweat suit and a blue coat with a fur hood.
Police say Hawks has the mental capacity of a five-year-old and cannot speak.
3. Police searched garbage dumps in New Jersey and Pennsylvania on Tuesday for a baby’s corpse apparently thrown out with the trash at a Jersey City hospital sometime in the past two weeks. Hospital spokeswoman Barbara Davey said in a statement that the baby was stillborn. Kalynn Moore, the 26-year-old mother, said at a news conference that she was in and out of consciousness in the minutes after the five-pound boy was born. But she says the baby was born alive and that she held him briefly before doctors spent more than 20 minutes trying to stabilize the baby's heart rate before he died. Absent an autopsy, it appears the question of whether the baby was born alive pits the mother's word against the hospital. There is no birth certificate and no death certificate, though the baby was added to Moore's Medicaid policy to cover funeral expenses.
4. Federal regulators proposed a $65,000 fine Tuesday against the owner of a Pennsylvania nuclear plant where security guards routinely napped on the job.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced the fine against Chicago-based Exelon Nuclear after completing a special investigation of the Peach Bottom plant in south-central Pennsylvania.
Multiple guards were "deliberately inattentive" on more than one occasion in a plant "ready room" that serves as a break room, and the incidents were not reported to plant supervisors, the NRC said. Exelon plans to pay the fine, and its monitoring of plant security has improved since the incidents became known.
5. A 6-year-old Virginia boy who missed his bus tried to drive to school in his family's sedan — and crashed. His parents were charged with child endangerment. State police said the boy suffered only minor injuries and authorities drove him to school after he was evaluated at a local hospital for a bump on his head. He made at least two 90-degree turns, passed several cars and ran off the rural two-lane road several times before hitting an embankment and utility pole about a mile and a half from school.
9:42 – After winning a bet Danny got to feel Shila up. One of Shila’s friends got implants recently. While discussing it with her boyfriend Sean an argument broke out. Years ago a plastic surgeon offered Shila a new rack and she turned it down. Sean thinks it’s not a bad idea that she gets some new assets, though he loves her as she is. Shila was upset that he wasn’t completely for her staying natural. Danny thinks that there’s nothing wrong with Shila’s body. Even if she wanted them she’d want Sean to talk her out of it. Danny’s comeback is a penile implant. Shila thinks that going up a cup size could mutilate her body.
9:56 – Danny’s Final Thought: If I can predict the future like I think I can, it will probably be my final thought of my life. If your girlfriend wants to get implants, you should try and talk her out of it. If she doesn’t want implants and you support her, she’s still going to be mad at you. So my final thought is: Women, you can’t live with them and you can’t shoot them in the head.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/6/09
6:01 – Shila is very colorful today. She’s matching on every level. Danny has on his coffin ring, new coffin belt buckle and coffin watch. Philadelphia Style magazine is coming to do a photo shoot later today, which is cool, however Danny has a face full of cuts from his 10 days at boxing camp. There are real, modern day pirates sailing the seas these days. They pull up on speed boats and hijack oil tankers in international waters. Danny’s a licensed skipper up to 50 tons and wants to sail around the world one day.
6:17 – Danny was also a security guard and worked at a marina and would break into boats and steal the liquor. He really is a pirate. Danny’s also a licensed sky diver, and scuba diver too. The sailing course took a long time and the instructor was vegan. Not all sailors live off the sea. What’s a Keenyan? Danny’s idea for combating the evil pirates? Bait boats! Just lure them to a ship rigged to explode and get rid of them when they try to steal the treasure. Scallywags!
6:33 – Danny’s a little fed up. The Swedish are worried about the impact of cremating bodies, so they’re building crematoriums that are self heating, trapping smoke from entering the atmosphere, powered by burning bodies. Metro isn’t for recycling bodies. Danny wants to be thrown in the sea and turned into fish food, that’s how he’s going to give back to the world. Shila’s a Hindu and they burn bodies. Danny’s impressed with the piercing rituals of Indians. Long ago a wife would jump on the flaming body of her husband to join him in death. Crematoriums are a good idea. Gold courses and graveyards are the worst use of real estate. Metro is skeeved by being warmed by a burning body.
6:47 – Is it appropriate to be warmed by the body of a loved one at the crematorium? One caller brings up the lack of space in China and their use of cremation. When Danny was a kid he heard that if a billion Chinese people jumped off their chairs at the same time it would throw the world off it’s axis and start a new ice age. One caller brings up the idea of keeping a few bodies on ice in case the crematorium gets chilly.
6:53 – Danny brings up a new story about women’s underwear with GPS receivers in them. They’re small enough to not be noticed by the women apparently. Danny would do it just to catch someone cheating on him, but to surprise someone buying bread at the store is anticlimactic. Shila says that when it comes to sex men are just dumb and they just want it. Women are far more vindictive. Danny thinks that the gates of hell start at a women’s thigh. Men lose their minds for sex. The underwear GPS was obviously created to catch someone cheating.
7:05 – News with Shila:
1. President-elect Obama went to Capitol Hill today to lobby Congress for his economic recovery plan, although he doesn't become president for another two weeks. We have to act and act now" in order to break what he called the "momentum of this recession," Obama told reporters. So far this year, nearly 2 million jobs have been lost and this week's report is expected to reveal more than 445,000 more jobs were lost in December. The worst year for job losses before now was 1982 when the country lost 2.1 million jobs.
Obama is hoping to persuade lawmakers to support an economic stimulus package that has as its "No. 1 goal" the creation of 3 million new jobs as well as $300 billion worth of tax cuts.
Danny’s answer? Legalize drugs and tax them. The only time he’s rowdy is when he’s drinking.
2. Aid to cities and schools is on the chopping block as Governor Corzine of New Jersey unveiled yesterday his ideas for proposed cuts to help bridge the state's 2.1 billion dollar budget gap.
Some 812 million dollars in spending is being cut from the current fiscal budget.
The cuts affect everything from school breakfast programs and nursery inspection programs, to mosquito control and equipment for state police.
The governor also wants to freeze state workers' wages and reduce the state's payment to a pension fund.
However, some cuts need legislative approval.
3. George W. Bush is visiting Philadelphia one last time as president.
Bush will be in the city on Thursday, the seventh anniversary of the day he signed the No Child Left Behind law.
Bush plans to offer up a final defense of the law, which tries to force schools to improve test scores each year. The law unpopular among many and that's partly over funding issues and because some parents think schools spend too much time on test preparation. Bush's event will be held Thursday morning at General Philip Kearny School in the Northern Liberties neighborhood.
4. And in more Bush news….President Bush’s cat dies. The cat was 18 years old and named India after the Texas Ranger player Ruben sierra…whose nickname was “el Indio.” Doesn’t matter if you call it what you call it, it’s dead.
5. More and more people are abandoning their cats at the Bucks County SPCA and at local parks because they can no longer afford them with the slumping economy.
Core Creek Park in Langhorne, Bucks County has been overrun by abandoned cats.
However, Bucks County SPCA director Anne Irwin says the economy is not solely to blame for the sudden cat boom.
"The kitten season seems to have extended longer this year and we have a pretty full house," Irwin said.
While the SPCA is seeing more cats than usual, so are local parks. Many people are dumping them thinking they will survive. Anne says they will not and 3 dead kittens were found. Even the threat of a 750 fine is not deterring people. Neighborhood watch groups are forming to stop the problem. It’ll become a real issue when you can’t find abandoned cat because people are eating them.
6. Police say an angry 4-year-old Ohio boy grabbed a gun from a closet and shot his baby sitter. Nathan Beavers, 18, was hospitalized Sunday with minor wounds to his arm and side after the shotgun attack. Police say another teen was also injured. Witnesses told police the child was angry because Beavers accidentally stepped on his foot. Beavers was watching the child at a mobile home in Jackson with several other teenagers and several other children.
7:26 – Danny Bonaduce Life Coach:
First up is a Joe, who has a degree in criminal justice and works for a private investigator. He follows people home from court to see if they’re faking injuries. He wonders if he’s going down the wrong career path even though he’s just a few months out of college. What does he want to be when he grows up? He wants to be a State Park Ranger. He’s on the right path; he’s in the judicial system already. He’s on the right track and just needs to keep at it and also looking for a job in his chosen field. Don’t leave a job until you have another one lined up.
Will has 55 charges against him; most are for theft and receiving stolen property while he was addicted to heroin. He’s 21 and his first offense was expunged. Is he going to do time? Danny thinks that community service, fines, and drug screens are most likely if he stays clean. Jails are overcrowded and state budgets are being slashed daily. Next week Danny might teach us how to cheat a urine test.
Greg wants to doctor some credit card charges that identify where the transactions took place. His wife wants to see the bills and he’s worried. Often porn sites and massage parlor charge under different names, however Greg went to site for swingers. Danny says to use hair spray on a q-tip to lift the ink and use a manual typewriter, and tracing paper to achieve the desired effect.
7:44 – Danny reads an e-mail from George. He has an alcohol problem, so does George. George drinks Jack Daniels and 7-Up nightly on the way home from work to get to his happy place. We’ll assume he’s walking. He went to rehab and believes he can control his drinking. His issue isn’t the drinking; it’s that he wants to stop drinking. The drinking is okay, but stop beating yourself up about it. Set limits and don’t go to excess and you’re set.
Rick is on the phone; he’s 23 and has started to have feelings for his good friend’s girlfriend. They flirted in the past, but lately he’s been extremely attracted to her. The flirting is gotten a little out of hand and they’ve talked about getting physical. Cheating with your friend’s woman is worse than cheating on your girlfriend. Rick and his friend are firefighters, Rick needs to break up the relationship and keep his friendship.
8:07 – Entertainment News:
Mario Lopez was in town yesterday and ran the steps of the Art Museum. Danny worked with Mario for a while and knows that Mario gets fired up about circumcision. He’s against cutting. Mario has absolutely no issue getting chicks. Danny hasn’t seen a guy score like that since David Cassidy. One of Danny’s moves is to make sure that someone working at the front desk of a hotel makes sure that the woman is seen leaving the hotel on good terms. The feet of the Rocky Statue are too big, but it isn’t considered art by the people that run the Art Museum of Philadelphia. Mario also blew open Danny’s ear drum while boxing with head gear he’s that fierce. Shila’s not fond of uncut men.
Nicole, a nurse, has lots of experience with uncut men from work and she’s not a fan. Genie had a great lover that wasn’t cut. Kris thinks it’s disgusting because ‘stuff’ can get caught in the skin. It’s like a lint trap. Danny thinks uncut men look like aardvarks.
Scott Maasen, considered one of the country's leading criminal defense attorneys specializing in DUI cases, and whose firm, the Maasen Law Firm, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is representing basketball legend Charles Barkley, issued a statement today with regard to Barkley's arrest early Wednesday, December 31, 2008, on drunk driving charges.
8:30 – Danny announces the details about winning tickets to Sunday’s Eagles/Giants game. Just tell us where your seats are!
8:47 – There’s a new show on Playboy TV called Money Talks, Nadine goes around the country and offers people money for things they wouldn’t ordinarily do. Would Danny take a punch in the face from Kimbo Slice? No, he already had reconstructive surgery on his face after getting hit in the face with a baseball bat at 17. Nadine asks men to do stunts and sex acts for women. Sex in an ice cream truck, public nudity, and much more. Everyone has a price. The old game with ‘Would you do this for a million dollars?’ has lost it’s edge. Would Danny take a kick in the crotch for a sandwich? Maybe a boob honk! She takes a kick, and now Danny’s surprised that Shila’s got bigger boobs than he thought she did.
9:04 – News with Shila:
1. Five Philadelphia fire engine and two ladder companies said their goodbyes Monday after they were closed in the wake of a city budget crisis.
The seven fire companies were closed just after 8 a.m. as the city hopes the move will save $10 million a year in overtime.
Among those companies closed was Engine 8 at 4th and Arch Streets, the oldest fire company in the United States which was founded by Benjamin Franklin. Opponents have been protesting the proposed cuts for months, arguing that money will be saved, but lives will be endangered. Mayor Nutter said city residents should not fear their safety in the wake of the reorganization.
2. 2. Aid to cities and schools is on the chopping block as Governor Corzine of New Jersey unveiled yesterday his ideas for proposed cuts to help bridge the state's 2.1 billion dollar budget gap.
Some 812 million dollars in spending is being cut from the current fiscal budget.
The cuts affect everything from school breakfast programs and nursery inspection programs, to mosquito control and equipment for state police.
The governor also wants to freeze state workers' wages and reduce the state's payment to a pension fund.
However, some cuts need legislative approval.
3. A man who police said was shot by his stepfather ended up in the same jail with him after officers discovered outstanding arrest warrants against the victim. Police 37-year-old Richard Hayes of Jacksonville shot his stepson. Authorities say 21-year-old Michael Bass was shot in the abdomen. When Deputies discovered Bass had outstanding warrants for failing to appear in court, they took him to jail after he was treated and released from the hospital.
4. A new CNN survey asked couples what they refused to do in front of their spouse, and they found a lot of disagreement about personal boundaries.
What do spouses refuse to do in front of one another? Using the toilet, relieving digestive pressure and maintaining appearances.
Shila’s not comfortable brushing her teeth with other people around or walking around her apartment naked when she’s alone. Danny and his girlfriend Amy sometimes share the same toothbrush. Danny’s not afraid with going to the bathroom with the door open. Danny and Shila agree that cigarettes on the toilet are the best. ‘It’s the ultimate chill’. There’s nothing Danny won’t do in front of Amy, he doesn’t have time to keep his privacy. One thing Danny did have a hard time doing was ‘walking the dog’ while a girl just sat there and watched.
Plucking hair, and popping pimples are also on the list. Even though his girlfriend is allergic to cigarette Danny couldn’t quit smoking. He pays the bills, it’s his castle.
9:35 – Danny takes another call for Guess the Seats. It is not in 310.
9:37 – Is Metro switching sides to team Canseco? Danny concedes that Jose has size, but he doesn’t have the skills. Shila thinks he’s and oaf. Metro just wants to protect his interests. Odds are that the ring will be small, which could help Danny, but if Jose really connects with a good shot he could dislocate Danny’s shoulder. Breaking a rib is acceptable, but piercing a lung is a legitimate fear. Permanent damage and broken bones are a concern. Danny’s size could keep Canseco from throwing upper cuts, but he could be taking head shots all night. He’s a bit of a pretty boy too, but that’s what Danny thought about Mario Lopez before he destroyed Danny’s ear drum.
9:57 - Danny's Final Thought: You know you call her Cob Web Pants and then she tells me she likes it a little rough, it's kind of hard to believe. Then she kicked me square in the sack and I got to grab a hooter. Life's worth living kids, if you just play hard enough.
Danny Bonaduce Show 1/5/09
6:02 – Time to change the dates when you write checks it’s 2009 now! Danny’s only written one check in his life, he’s normally a credit card kind of guy. Metro spent his two weeks off at the station. Danny has an extreme dislike for successful people that get lazy. Danny likes to make bizarre names for territories in India for fun. Shila’s a relaxed Hindi. Shila took her cousins from Detroit to New York City. Danny can’t go to tourist traps because he ends up taking endless photos.
Over the holidays Danny filmed an episode of MTV Cribs. Danny found a good spot and invested some money in making it a sex palace. Starting in February it’ll be rented out.
Danny’s ex-wife was a groupie even though she came across a goody two-shoes. She moved in a 42 year-old drummer living in the house Danny is paying for and a Japanese teacher. Danny’s letting the drummer drive his coveted GTO. Danny wrote the drummer a few times with no response. Not cool in Danny’s book, so he fired off a confrontational e-mail. Gretchen thought Danny was rude because her new boyfriend is very busy.
6:30 – Is Danny the reason the Eagles are in the playoffs? YES! Merrill Reese sounds like an auctioneer.
6:33 – Highlights from the Bonaduce/Canseco Press Conference!!! Canseco was a dud on the mic. No one can handle Danny in verbal sparring and he’s gonna bring the fire in the ring on the 24th. Danny threw a vile of ‘steroids’ at Canseco.
Over the break Danny spent time at a boxing camp and slept in a barn with a horse. Some training exercises included at Prime Time Boxing included running across a room 10 times in a minute while strapped to a huge bungee cord. Another was boxing a tag team of sparring partners. Danny, not a natural boxer, learned to duck and lit up some of the sparring partners. In four days Danny dropped 3 percent body weight and can run longer and faster now. He also quit smoking.
6:53 – Spike, who works 10a-3p weekdays at the station went to a charity auction and bid on a…makeover. You can see his makeover on the 10! Show later today. He was the winning bidder on the ‘Pampering Package’ which benefitted the Police Athletic League. There’s not going to be a lot to work with. You can see it on channel 10 at 11am today. His girlfriend is also getting makeover and she’s excited. Spike usually dresses like he went on a shopping spree at Hot Topic from the mid-80’s. Danny blew $300 at a Hot Topic over the weekend.
7:05 - News with Shila:
1. The Obamas move to Washington DC to prepare for their official move into the white house January 20th. They are temporarily staying at the Hay-Adams hotel with daughters Malia and Sasha. The Obama girls begin their first day in their new school.
2. Time is running out for five engine and two ladder companies in Philadelphia as the city deals with a budget crisis. The decision to shut down the fire companies is the city's hope in saving $10 million a year in overtime. Members of seven city fire companies are standing by and awaiting their fate, which could be decided Monday morning around 8 a.m., unless the Supreme Court steps in. The Nutter administration said they do not plan to close any fire houses and no firefighters will be laid off, only transferred: The companies in danger of closing are:
ENGINE 1 at 711-23 SOUTH BROAD STREET
ENGINE 6 at 2601 BELGRADE STREET
ENGINE 8 at 101-15 NORTH 4TH STREET
ENGINE 14 at 1652-54 FOULKROAD STREET
ENGINE 39 at 6630 RIDGE AVENUE 39
LADDER 1 at 1541-47 PARRISH STREET
LADDER 11 at 1357 SOUTH 12TH STREET
3. Most tolls on the Pennsylvania Turnpike increased about 25 percent today as of 12:01 am. The most common toll for passenger vehicles went from 75 cents to 95 cents, while a typical truck's toll is $7.85, up from $6.25. The money subsidizes 74 mass-transit agencies and state bridge and road repairs. The only exceptions to the increase are some newly opened sections of the turnpike in Western Pennsylvania. the turnpike expects to begin increasing tolls about 3 percent every year.
4. Web-savvy moms who breast-feed are irate that social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace restrict photos of nursing babies. Facebook began as a site just for college kids, but now it is an online home for 140 million people from all over the world. Among the new faces of Facebook are women like Kelli Roman, 23, who last year posted a photo of herself nursing one of her two children and later was restricted. Facebook bars people from uploading anything "obscene, pornographic or sexually explicit" -- a policy that translates into a ban on pictures depicting certain amounts of exposed flesh. About 10 women showed up to breast-feed their babies outside the front door of Facebook headquarters, drawing attention from local media if not Facebook employees, who were scarce on that Saturday after Christmas. It’s not obscene, but is it nudity? It’s not a bare breast, because the child’s head is in the way and kids need food. A woman feeding her child is a beautiful thing. Shila agrees, but doesn’t want to see it. Can Danny fire Shila? Well, he can walk off the show.
7:26 – Merrill Reese, the voice of Eagles football on 94WYSP is on the show. Big win on Sunday against the Vikings. The team has really rebounded from the tie in Cincinnati and now it’s two wins from a Superbowl. The Eagles seem to be peaking at the right time. Donovan is playing very well, the defense is on fire. Elite, franchise quarterbacks aren’t easy to find in the NFL and Merrill hopes that the Eagles hold on to McNabb. The Giants are really missing Plaxico Burress, especially in the red zone. They don’t have a big threat at receiver now. Dawkins is playing out of his mind this year.
7:48 – Danny and his girlfriend Amy have not started off 2009 on the best foot. Metro also had a breakup with his girlfriend Amy too. His dedication to work makes it tough to spend time on the relationship. Danny’s certain that Metro will have a log successful career. Danny thinks that making this call is nice and he’s proud of Metro for allowing his Amy to seek what she needs and wants in a relationship. Danny’s girlfriend has a tough time keeping up with his 75-hour work week. Shila put a lot of hard work in early in her career and had a string of long distance relationships. Does Metro have a need to sew his oats? Danny thinks not. Metro’s now had two weeks of being alone and realized something needed to happen. There could be a space for them between where they were and where they both want to be. Living together could be an issue, she moved out of their apartment. Danny predicts that Amy is gone and that Metro will marry the second girlfriend after her. Danny lets it slip over the weekend that he asked his girlfriend Amy to marry him. She said yes, but just because he asked doesn’t mean he’ll do it!
8:04 – Entertainment News:
Actor John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston said they were "heartbroken" over the death last week of their son Jett, 16, who was found unconscious during a family vacation in the Bahamas.
When Barkley was arrested in Scottsdale, Ariz., early Wednesday after running a stop sign, the former NBA forward allegedly told the officer he was in a hurry for sex. According to the notes in the incident report. He also promised to get a civilian employee at the department's name tattooed "on my ass" if they could help get him out of the DUI charge.
Heather Locklear has pleaded no contest to a lesser offense to avoid DUI charges stemming from a September arrest. The former Melrose Place star pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor reckless driving charge in a Santa Barbara, Calif., court Friday, according to The Associated Press. Locklear's attorney entered the plea on her behalf, as she did not appear in court. Danny wants to know what she was on. He’s a qualified expert due to finding all the bad combinations of pharmaceuticals.
Has Tara Reid kicked off the new year by checking out of rehab? Citing an unnamed source, People had reported earlier today that the 33-year-old American Pie actress checked out of Promises Treatment Center in Malibu on Saturday, after just three weeks in the upscale facility. Some rehabs are nicer than others and not all stick to the 12 steps.
The 'stars' from "Confessions of a Teen Idol" include Jeremy Jackson, Chris Atkins, Jamie Walters, Billy Hufsey, Adrian Zmed and David Chokachi. Christopher Atkins, the kid from The Blue Lagoon now builds pools, the irony! Danny was deemed too successful for this show, some of the best news he ever heard. Danny did a pilot for a group reality show, but that ended up with someone getting hurt and rumors of litigation.
8:27 – The U.S. Army is in the studio. Danny welcomes Staff Sergeant Chris McCoy, Staff Sergeant Michael Bell, Sergeant First Class Pedro Montoya, Sergeant First Class Michael Huson, Sergeant First Class Benjamin Patti, and Captain Scott Francis. Danny is not up on the latest Army fashion. In combat soldiers keep their ranks on their uniforms, even though it puts the top dogs in danger. Danny takes pride in his patriotism. Danny was denied entry into the armed forces twice. Recruiting is a three year assignment and they’ll return to the front lines.
Personal armor is the best it’s ever been for the Army. Interceptor body armor is getting pushed out to the soldiers faster. Danny wants the armed forces to have full authority to just demolish other countries that we go to war with. One of the soldiers states that we are winning the war over there, but the restructuring of Iraq is taking a lot of man power. They bring up the fact that sometimes maximum force is not necessary. Danny gets a little emotional, he doesn’t want the good troops of the U.S. Army getting hurt if they don’t have to.
8:52 – Danny has presents for Shila and Metro. The gifts that Shila ordered weren’t here before the show went on break. Metro thinks it’s an odd time to give presents, maybe it’s because he doesn’t have presents for Danny and Shila? Shila got Metro a gift card to Starbucks. Danny opens up a coffin belt buckle to go with his second favorite piece of jewelry, his coffin ring. Shila and Metro open up $500 cash from Danny. Merry Christmas!
9:04 - News with Shila:

Bush Senior said “that he’s as qualified and able as anyone I know on the political scene”

No injuries were reported.
3. In Atlantic City, a 70-year-old man won about $10,000 at the Taj Mahal blackjack table at around 8:00 a.m. Sunday morning.
When he was walking back to his car he noticed another man, who was watching him at the blackjack table, following him. The man then attacked the 70-year-old and took off in a cab to go for a bit of a joyride. He was later dropped off at the intersection of Cross Keys Road and Johnson Road in Gloucester Township. The suspect is described as a black male, 5'10", short hair, wearing a grey sweat shirt; he is believed to be suffering from a hand wound from hitting the 70-year-old man in the head. The 70-year-old man is in the hospital in stable condition.

The 46 year old man has been arrested and charged with burgerly, harassment, and private indecency.
5. After reading the book "A Year of Living Biblically," by A.J. Jacobs, former pastor Ed Dobson decided to devote a year trying to live as Jesus did, based on what is written about him in the Bible and other historical documents. He told good morning America that he did not shave, ate kosher, observed the Sabbath and read through the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John every week. He even had a couple of beers along the way. "I would often go down to the bar, sit up at the counter, drink a beer and talk about God, which Jesus was accused of being a glutton and a drunkard," he said. The most difficult part of the challenge, Dobson said, was obeying Jesus' teachings, particularly the idea of blessing the people who persecute you.
9:23 – Danny’s trainer from Prime Time Boxing, Angelo Nunez, is on the line. Danny is feeling great after his time with Angelo. Angelo worked Danny hard, it wasn’t for softies. Danny worked hard on his technique, Danny’s not afraid to get hit in the head, but against Canseco he had to learn to duck some punches. Danny feels more optimistic about going up against Canseco on the 24th. Angelo really liked Danny’s personality and his drive. Angelo was also lying to Danny about the length of rounds; he was working 3 minute rounds instead of 1 minute rounds. Go hard or go home? Go hard and go smart! Angelo is confident that Danny will be victorious. Jose was soft at the press conference. Women were at the gym too, they get shredded. Danny gets a cool nickname like ‘The Machine’ because he works non-stop. Shila gets ‘Cob Web Pants’. Maybe she’d get a new one if she let The Machine in her Cob Web Pants.

9:48 – It just dawned on Danny that he spent Christmas Day in a manger, with horses. There was no room at the inn. Metro kept Danny up on the latest celebrity dirt, like the Sharon Osbourne fight on VH1’s Rock of Love: Charm School.
Kathy Griffin also got lewd on CNN New Year’s Eve. She’s like Danny, but higher up the list.
Dick Clark’s getting worse year by year. Danny worked with him on ‘The Other Half’. He needs to take himself off the camera. It’s tough for people with fame to retire with dignity. It breaks Danny’s heart to see a man that was so great not pass the torch over to Ryan Seacrest.
9:57 - Danny has Eagles/Giants tickets tomorrow! Be listening at 8:30!
9:58 - Danny's Final Thought: I tell you this every day, but I hope this means something special to you today. I love ya, I wouldn't have a job without ya. I know that because I lived in a car when you guys weren't around. I really appreciate this opporunty. I think I speak for the entire show, thank you very much. We will be here for the next entire year, so God bless..."
