Danny Bonaduce Show 03/30/09
6:03 – Somehow no one from the show made it to a screening of the new Mike Tyson documentary they were supposed to go to because the director is coming in today. Danny ended up at the wrong Ritz Theater. While trying to get to right theater Danny’s girlfriend Amy was nailed in the face by a bucket of dirty water by a guy dumping water out of the second story window of a restaurant. The man apologized, but that wasn’t enough for Danny. He went upstairs to tell the man that he should apologize to Amy face to face. After everything settled down they went to head to the movie theater, but Danny realized that Amy looked like she got flushed. So Danny couldn’t make it to the movies because of that.
6:10 – Amy had tubes in her ears when she was a kid and sometimes doesn’t hear Danny when he’s 5 feet away. After a hearing test they learned that she has reduced hearing for lower decibel levels, exactly where Danny’s voice is. Last night Danny didn’t get a response from Amy when screaming for something to drink at top volume, but came running when there was a lion on TV.
6:28 – Sports: Sixers lost to the Pistons 101-97, Flyers lost to the Bruins 3-4, Nova to the Final Four, is American ready for a Michael Vick autobiography?
Danny’s up to 7131 people in Shaking Bonaduce, get your numbered card and shake Danny’s hand at Restorts in Atlantic City this Friday when he debuts the Boogie Nights slot machine and the Bonaduce drink, which will have lots of vodka in it. The drink, not the slot machine.
6:48 – Danny’s girlfriend Amy and Metro’s girlfriend Aimee have had plans to go out for drinks for a while. While the girls are out Danny is home watching historical documentaries when the door flies open and two cute, giggly girls burst in. Of course they were Amy and Aimee. Danny was excited, but then realized that he wouldn’t be able to have sex with both of them. Danny retreats to his bedroom, a few minutes later Danny calls Metro to let him know that his girlfriend is now asleep in his guest room and wanted to know if he should to take her home. Metro decided to just let her sleep. In the morning she split early.
6:55 – The next day the girls went to lunch where it came out that Metro was mad that his girlfriend stayed at Danny’s. He worked himself up into getting mad. A friend thought it was a bad idea and Metro jumped on that train of thought. Danny talked him off the ledge and everything was okay. When Danny got home it occurred to Danny that if his girlfriend fell asleep at Danny Bonaduce’s house that would make his mind race. At one point Metro thought about going to Danny’s house to rescue his damsel in deep sleep. One day Danny will come to work and for no reason Metro will punch him in the face. Though he did nothing wrong, there could be circumstantial evidence against him and start the show with a bloody face.
7:11 – News with Shila:
Philadelphia Police Officer Alhinde Weems showed up at an area hotel yesterday morning, authorities said, armed and ready to take down a local drug dealer, and willing to shoot if necessary. The drug dealer, however, was the fabrication of an undercover officer, and the target of the sting was Weems, a 5 1/2-year veteran who "dishonored the badge," Deputy Commissioner Richard Ross said at a news conference yesterday at Police Headquarters. Ross was joined by federal authorities who conducted the months-long investigation of Weems. Danny as in Los Angeles for the Rampart Division scandal, which was a full on gang which was full of misconduct including cocaine theft, bank robbery, and framing innocent citizens.
An Egg Harbor Township police officer has admitted having sex with a prostitute in a motel room while on duty and in uniform. Patrolman Richard Cavanaugh pleaded guilty today to official misconduct and resigned from the force. Cavanaugh admitted driving to a motel just outside Atlantic City in December 2007 in his marked patrol car. He said he had a prostitute perform a sex act on him. After 23 years of service that’s a dumb move.
Officials are investigating whether a teacher in a south Jersey middle school went too far with a prank on an eighth-grader who has two pet frogs. Student Robin Grace says she told Dennis Township teacher Beth Champion that she didn't want to dissect frogs but would watch. State law allows students to opt out. The student says Champion asked other students to show frog parts to Grace before telling her she could leave. Danny thinks that any prank pulled on a student by a teacher is going too far. Putting a frog’s head in a kid’s purse crossed the line. The girl had pet frogs and opted out of the dissection. Shila doesn’t think it’s a big deal and kids need to toughen up.
Tom had to sign a waiver to allow his son to dissect a frog at school. If his son opted out and got a frog head in his bag Tom would have some words with the teacher. Chyvonne thinks the teacher should be reprimanded, but today’s kids need to deal with reality.
7:37 – Movie director James Toback is in the studio. He just finished a Mike Tyson documentary. He used Tyson in a few of his other movies, but this complex documentary is the culmination of 23 years of knowing a spectacular individual. He has an amazing memory too. Tyson made over $300 million boxing, but doesn’t have that much to show for it these days. A majority of his money disappeared, probably to the hands of Don King. Only recently did he develop a drug addiction that sent him to rehab twice. Danny was offered a chance to fight Tyson for charity and was warned that his left hook could do permanent damage. Toback says that fear was the motivating factor in his life. He dealt with his fear by imposing it on those he fought. Tyson knew he would win when his opponent would look away as he entered the ring. Danny asked if Robin Givens was the beginning of the end for Tyson. She ruined him, but hasn’t been able to move on. Robin reminds Danny of his ex-wife Gretchen.

The Metallica guest list for the April 4 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame includes staffers from the band's previous labels, Megaforce and Elektra, journalists and photographers who have been supportive over the group's career, producers and musician friends. Metallica also invited founding guitarist Dave Mustaine, who is unable to attend, and former bassists Ron McGovney and Jason Newsted, who will. Newsted also plans to perform with Metallica during the ceremony. Ray Burton, father of Cliff Burton, who was Metallica's bassist from 1982 until his death in 1986, will accept on behalf of his son. Guitarist Kirk Hammett said Metallica was inspired to be all-inclusive after it witnessed Blondie's acrimonious induction during the 2006 Rock Hall ceremony. "There was so much politics and so much drama," Hammett recalled, "that we collectively said to each other that if that ever happens and we get inducted ... we don't want any of that, because it kind of really puts a whole bad, sour note on the celebration itself. We said to each other, 'Let's celebrate the fact and let's not turn it into something negative.'"
Former teen idol Willie Aames had a garage sale at his Kansas home this week to raise money to pay off debts, E! Online said Friday. Aames, 48, is best known for his roles on TV's "Eight is Enough," "Charles in Charge" and "Celebrity Fit Club." Sold at Thursday's sale were autographed photos, posters and other TV and movie memorabilia from his glory days, E! Online said, adding that a camera crew was on hand to tape the event. The Kansas City (Mo.). Star reported that Aames also parted with a leather couch, artwork, a piano, a lion head mounted on an oak pedestal, stuffed wild boars and a TV. He needs to sell some of that Eight is Enough junk because he owes Danny money. Danny did an episode of Eight is Enough, he was the bad kid that got Willie’s character drunk.
Actress/model Jenny McCarthy's ex has revealed he misses nights of passion with the star - because she was "a freak in the sack". Actor/director John Asher, who was married to McCarthy from 1999 to 2005, feels sure his ex-wife's current beau, Jim Carrey, is having the time of his life in the bedroom - because the actress really knows how to spice up sex. Asher revealed his ex liked threesomes and once even invited three other "naughty sweet young girls" to join them for sex. Danny’s girlfriend Amy let him know that there is no chance that she’ll ever bring another girl to bed.
ShamWow spokesperson Vince Shlomi was arrested in South Beach last month after an altercation with a prostitute. The pair met at a nightclub and allegedly Shlomi paid $1,000 for "straight sex" with her. During which, she bit his tongue and according to Schlomi "wouldn't let go". This occurred around 4 a.m. in Miami, Florida. If she bit him he was just defending himself to get his tongue free. He could have used the ShamWow to clean up! He broke hooker rule number one: Don’t kiss the girl.
8:34 – We've narrowed down the search for our Hometown Hottie from Northeast Philly to these five women!

8:42 – It's Metro’s birthday today and his girlfriend Aimee busts into the studio dressed as Princess Leah from Return of the Jedi and Gibbons dressed as R2D2. Suddenly Metro’s fantasy has become Danny’s fantasy.
8:51 – Are Smarties a gateway candy? Videos have been posted of young teenagers simulating the smoking of cigarettes or joints. This is nothing new to Danny. Candy cigarette and cigars were very common when Danny was a kid. It didn’t necessarily mean they were gateway drugs. Shila smokes some Smarties. Danny is able to blow smoke out of his body from all the junk that’s stuck in his lungs. When Danny was in school smoking Smarties was beating up kids who got straight A’s. If Danny’s kids smoked Smarties it wouldn’t upset him, they’re just kids playing with candy.
9:04 – News with Shila:

A retired police chief says he was robbed by "probably the dumbest criminal in Pennsylvania." It happened Friday morning at a hotel hosting a police officers' convention near Harrisburg that drew 300 narcotics officers from Pennsylvania and Ohio. John Comparetto says as he came out of a stall in the men's bathroom, a man pointed a gun in his face and demanded money.
A Washington woman visiting Wisconsin last year was arrested for drunken driving three times in three days, including twice in and around Kohler-Andrae State Park, according to court records released Wednesday. Jo A. Trilling, of Spokane, Wash., who was sentenced on the final two cases last week, was arrested in each case after driving off the road and getting her car stuck. She was arrested March 11, 12 and 13 of 2008, racking up a total of 30 days in jail and more than $3,000 in fines.
The fundraising idea may seem a little nuts, but Oakdale's annual Testicle Festival is always a big hit. On Monday, volunteers with the town's Rotary Club plan to fry up 400 pounds of the private parts of bulls and serve them to diners who pay $50 apiece for the sit-down meal. The event, whose proceeds also benefit the Oakland Cowboy Museum, has drawn an average of 450 people and last year raised $28,000. Everyone will have a ball! Danny is a fan or Rocky Mountain Oysters. Shila can’t say ‘rotary.’
9:38 – Spike checks in from Clearwater, FL or Phillies Spring Training. He’s having a good time. He’s had complete access to the team and nothing is more awkward than hanging out with a guy that’s about to get cut. Spike’s reached the age that he’s older than everyone on the team except for Jamie Moyer.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/27/09
6:02 – Shila went to some Martini Madness at the World Café Live yesterday and sampled dozens of martinis. Danny orders tall glasses with lots of vodka, lots of ice, and two kinds of juice. Bartenders don’t always understand him when he asks them to make it ‘cute.’ Danny was watching an old TNA match last night and got sucked into the mic work of the wrestlers. It was a huge promo leading up to TNA Lockdown at the Liacouras Center on April 19th and Danny wanted the audio. Rather than record it onto a laptop or minidisc, Danny just tries to remember as much of what was said. There could be some dangerous moves in Danny’s moves against Eric Young. If a kick to the face is actually landed a full on fight could break out.
6:11 – Danny was a little late to work out with his trainer Aimee this morning, some tool set off the smoke alarm with a cigar or pipe. The elevator won’t work now, but Danny can’t figure out which Amy/Aimee is mad at him. His girlfriend Amy or his trainer Aimee. So he woke up his girlfriend Amy to apologize, but there was nothing to apologize for. He finally made it down to meet Aimee his trainer and she punished him with a severely brutal work out in the weight room.
6:29 – SPORTS: Panthers defeated the Flyers 4-2, Villanova is in the Elite Eight, Former Eagle Ryan Moats ran into trouble on the way to see his dying mother in-law. You can’t discipline a police officer for doing his job, Moats did run a red light, but the officer will probably be sent to sensitivity training as a good public relations move.
Mike calls in to point out that the officer allegedly pulled a gun out and pointed it at Moats. Wilson calls in, after discussing the matter with a friend on the police force there’s a policy to go into the hospital with the civilian. Tim says that there’s no such thing as a routine traffic stop. The officer is an insensitive dick Danny says. Shila doesn’t think the situation was threatening enough to have a gun pulled.
6:41 – Eric is a former police officer and in the academy he was thought to pull a gun if the driver gets out of the car.
6:58 – Shana, one of the finalists for Danny Bonaduce’s Hometown Hotties didn’t appreciate being called a whore by Metro. She’s the one with a condom in her mouth. Maybe Metro doesn’t owe her, or her father, an apology.
7:09 – News with Shila:
Is the world ending? Mississippi tornadoes, floods in North Dakota, Alaskan volcanoes. Natural disasters in places Danny will never go. Alaska's Mount Redoubt erupted several times Thursday, spewing a more than 12-mile-high cloud that could drop ash on Anchorage for the first time since the volcano began erupting Sunday night. Police in Fargo, North Dakota ordered mandatory evacuations early Friday after a breach in flood protection created a "significant leak" as the Red River topped 40 feet, breaking a record crest set in 1897. Authorities said at least two tornadoes touched down in southern Mississippi late Wednesday and early Thursday, damaging dozens of homes and businesses and injuring residents in a small town.
A Delaware woman had an extremely close call. Surveillance video shows the woman drive right onto train tracks and into the path of a freight train, but was rescued by University of Delaware students. Heroes? YAY!
Bob from Alaska calls in to say that volcanoes are a pain in the ass. He’s about 100 miles from the eruptions. Danny thinks that having ashes dumped all over the place is a pain in the ash. Jerry, a scientist, brings up that 2012 is thought to be the end of the world in many ancient civilizations.
A parrot whose cries of alarm alerted his owner when a little girl choked on her breakfast has been honored as a hero. Willie, a Quaker parrot, has been given the local Red Cross chapter’s Animal Lifesaver Award. In November, Willie’s owner, Megan Howard, was baby-sitting for a toddler. Howard left the room and the little girl, Hannah, started to choke on her breakfast. Willie repeatedly yelled “Mama, baby” and flapped his wings, and Howard returned in time to find the girl already turning blue.
7:30 – Danny reads some Metallica lyrics, whoever finishes the lyrics gets a copy of Guitar Hero: Metallica.
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
7:52 – Joe Rogan is on the line. He does comedy, is a ring announcer for UFC, and has been doing martial arts since he was a kid. Martial arts is like a chess match with the body. He was a Massachusetts state Tae Kwon Do champion for four years too, not so useful now. He’s playing a sold out weekend at Helium. He’s one of the few people to confront Carlos Mencia on material theft. It seems bizarre that he does MMA and he’s comedian, opposite ends of the spectrum. They’re both about the truth to him. He’s got a Spike TV Comedy special later this year on the same network that runs TNA Wrestling. Joe’s tip for the match with Eric Young? Don’t die. Joe is tired of the L.A. scene and wants to move away from television and the lack of reality in Los Angeles.
8:05 – Entertainment News:
The widow of late TV producer Aaron Spelling is putting her mansion up for sale. The price tag of the California home is $150 million. It is the most expensive home for sale in the country. Some reports say the home in Los Angeles County has more than 100 rooms. It includes a bowling alley, wine cellar, gift-wrapping room, silver and china rooms, theater, barber shop, rooftop garden and more. Gift-wrapping room? Everything else makes sense, but gift-wrapping?
Sharon Osbourne lashed out on Thursday at suggestions that her family's history of drug and drink addiction made them unsuitable to host a TV variety show. Osbourne, her Black Sabbath husband Ozzy and children Jack and Kelly -- who shocked and delighted audiences on their reality show "The Osbournes" -- make their return to U.S. television as a family next week as hosts of a show featuring, skits, audience pranks and a sprinkling of four-letter words. Fox airs family friendly programming? Danny thinks that Ozzy would be a goldmine for comedy sketches, like pass him a martini shaker at a party.
The Apple-owned online music service that established the 99-cents-per-track standard will boost prices on its hottest-selling songs to $1.29 come April. Not that this is a surprise. Apple announced in January it would introduce a multi-tiered pricing structure at iTunes, with some songs costing more than a buck while others might move at clearance sale prices. But the company never said when the pricing change would occur. Now we know. Citing “industry sources” the Los Angeles Times says the new pricing – 69 cents, 99 cents and $1.29 – takes effect April 7. Danny thinks that every band should have the goal of selling out, but sell out for the most you can.
Sean Penn was spotted playing tonsil hockey with Natalie Portman. "They went to a bank of elevators that only goes to the spa or to private rooms," an eyewitness tells Star. "They came back about 45 minutes later, and that's when I saw them making out," reports Star magazine. Danny’s code: If it’s a man, it will cheat.
8:32 – David Hasselhoff is on the line. He was in New York to audition people for America’s Got Talent. Lots of whackos. Hasselhoff had an emotional moment on American Idol when it looked like he was crying over Taylor Hicks singing, but he was there with a good friend who didn’t have much time left to live. The Hoff is bullet proof. Anyone can say anything, but it’s in his past. Danny is Teflon too. David is featured in a new Wii game, Ready 2 Rumble Revolution. Why does America love Hasselhoff? He makes television that people like. Knight Rider was trashed by critics and so was Baywatch, but they were hits. He can play to 16,000 a night when he performs in Germany. Danny’s kids love the Wii and it gives him a good workout. Danny is great at Dance Dance Revolution.
Danny didn’t bring up the drunken hamburger video because Hasselhoff was a guest and he himself has been through the ringer. The sting of the transvestite incident has worn off, but when it first happened Danny was afraid to go outside or pick up the phone. Some point soon Danny will get Hoff to open up about that period of his life.

A visibly pregnant Kim Pawlowski walked slowly into the packed courtroom yesterday and took her seat in the front row, where she immediately began crying, dabbing a tissue to her eyes. The clack-clack of Rasheed Scruggs' walker rang out in the courtroom before spectators saw him. Scruggs, 33, who is tall, bearded and thin, then entered for what became an emotional preliminary hearing, after which he was held for trial on charges of first-degree murder and related offenses. It takes an incredible amount of courage to confront someone who killed someone you love.
Circumcised men have a 25% lower risk of genital herpes and a 35% lower risk of HPV, the virus that causes genital warts and cancers. The data come from a study in Uganda that already has shown circumcision effective in reducing a man's risk of HIV infection from heterosexual sex.

David has a diverse menu that offers a wide variety of foods with a European flair for people that have tame taste and selections for the more adventurous eater. David takes a lot of pride in his organ dishes and also marrow. He once at duck testicles, not knowing what they were. He liked them, but was surprised as to what they were.
9:55 - 94WYSP’s Rock Madness wraps up today. Rush beat Led Zeppelin? Follow along and vote for your favorites.s
9:58 – Danny’s Final Thought: I don’t know what made me think of this Final Thought a week in advance. But next Friday I’m at Resorts in Atlantic City and one of my gigs is that I’m opening their night club Boogie Nights and I’ve got y own drink named after me that I’m not fully done creating yet. So I just want to say if you can prove that you became a full blown alcoholic on just Bonaduces I will pay for your rehab.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/26/09
6:02 – Shila is feeling a little jelly today. What does that mean? Danny thinks it’s a little fatigued, worn. Just like the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz. Yes. They’re on the same page. Danny’s been hitting the weight room hard and practicing wrestling moves on his couch and coffee table. Danny was in Philadelphia Style last month and this month he is featured in the new Philadelphia Magazine. The cover states that ‘Danny Bonaduce Is Weirder Than You Think’ and the author of the article notes that the skin around Danny’s neck resembles the texture of an NBA basketball. Does Shila think she is as weird as other people think or is she weirder? She thinks that she’s not as weird as other people might believe. Danny believes he’s far weirder than he thinks he is, but not as weird as other people thinks he is. Danny used to think that everyone was like him.
6:11 – Mickey Lee calls to say he thinks Danny is pretty stable. Jeremy calls to say he’s goofy for doing cartoon voices in public, but at home he’s a quiet guy at home. Danny thinks it takes guts to put on voices and if Jeremy is just young and trying to work on a talent that could lead to a career. Dave calls to say he’s crazier than people think he is, but everyone thinks he’s a psycho. He hasn’t killed anyone, but he likes to have a good time without hurting other people. Dave thinks he’s nuttier than Danny. There’s a quote from Shila in the article talking about kicking Danny in the sack on a dare and he won’t back down. The author also follows jabs with compliments, including one that says Danny looks like he went on a New Hope shopping spree. He admittedly does.
6:25 – Junior calls in; he’s been diagnosed as being bipolar. Danny’s got a slight case of the same thing and has to take small doses of lithium. There are more severe cases, like Carrie Fisher’s, that keep her in bed for weeks at a time.
6:32 – Danny is a little worried about his skin now. He doesn’t moisturize and he was asked about his skin at the hospital when he went in for pneumonia. Shila thinks that maybe he just needs a facial. Danny thinks he’s fine just the way he is.
6:34 – SPORTS: Sixers beat the Timberwolves 96-88, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell supports a longer season, and Nova vs. Duke tonight at 10!
6:50 – Shila is a little freaked out because there was a shooting around the corner from her apartment last night. The shooting happened at about 1:15am and when walking to work at the morning Shila thinks that Old City is a little too spooky already. Danny was 40 feet away from a guy he knew get his head blown open. Danny didn’t stick around to see if they guy needed help. Shila’s had cars roll up to her on the way to work telling her not to be scared. What’s that about? Danny struts down the street to send the sign that he’s not worth messing with. Danny’s new house had some damage from being broken into with crowbars, that’s why he got a good deal on it!

SEPTA officials are issuing a warning to its customers after several uncapped needles were found intentionally taped to the bottom of stairwell railings at the Somerset station in Kensington. Two needles were found taped to the railings on the exit side of the station and two more were found on the entrance side. The needles were discovered by a SEPTA custodian who informed SEPTA Police. This is full blown malicious.
Police in Bucks County said an undercover online sex sting led to separate arrests of a Philadelphia graduate student and a New Jersey dentist. Bensalem Police said 44-year-old John Lackner of Cherry Hill and 24-year-old Arun Kurikote-Antony, a Drexel graduate student, are facing charges of attempted statutory sexual assault and related offenses. Both men believed they were making arrangements to meet with a 14-year-old girl via an online chat, but they were actually speaking with an undercover police officer. Under the covers is nowhere to go with a hooker.
State police said a trooper shot a naked Wilmington man who was beating him with his police radio early Wednesday morning. The trooper found 35-year-old Fabian Silvestre standing naked on Route 4 around 2:45 a.m. Police said Silvestre charged the trooper in the parking lot of Alpha Pizza on Maryland Avenue and the trooper, after a struggle, used his pepper spray. Police said Silvestre, unaffected by the spray, took the trooper's radio and beat him with it. Police said the trooper feared for his life and fired two shots, hitting Silvestre in the shoulder, but it did not stop him. This screams PCP to Danny. How could he be shot? He was attacking officers, didn’t comply with orders and had a weapon. It’s a process of elimination, eliminate the naked crazy guy.
A man in England, wrongly jailed 27 years for murder, was hit by a taxi during the first weekend following his release from prison, officials said. Sean Hodgson, 58, was released Thursday after spending nearly three decades behind bars for a 1979 murder he did not commit. Hodgson was struck by a taxicab as he was about to cross a busy street in London. If the taxi is insured he could have his retirement fund.
Derek calls in to talk about the use of lethal force. The officers are allowed to go one step above the weapon they’re being attacked with. What about a shrimp fork? It’s okay with Danny to skip a few steps and let the cops settle the situation with lead.
7:27 – Danny reads some Metallica lyrics, whoever finishes the lyrics gets a copy of Guitar Hero: Metallica.
Ain’t no mercy, ain’t no mercy left for me
Do you bury me when I’m gone
Do you teach me while I’m here
...just as soon as I belong, then its time I disappear
7:45 – Who Would Win In A Fight: David Letterman or Regis Philbin?
Leno’s chin would shatter any fist that threw a punch at him. Letterman is 61 and Regis is 77. Metro goes with Letterman, he looks like a dirty fighter. Shila takes Regis because Letterman had a more severe heart surgery; Regis is a city boy with stamina. Danny thinks Letterman looks frail and Regis is a sturdy little fireplug.
Jake calls to say he takes Regis too, Notre Dame vs. Ball State. Brady takes Regis too, because he exercises and the only running Letterman does is running his mouth. Tim takes Regis because he’s probably takes Viagra and Letterman’s testosterone is drained. Brandon picks Letterman because of 16 years and 16 inches. Patty takes Regis because of his center of gravity and he has to have some anger built up. JJ takes Letterman because he had a great interaction with Frank Gifford in the MNF booth years ago. Bill is a Letterman guy because his quick wit will startle Regis and leave him open for an attack. Chris, Robert, and everyone else on hold is on Team Regis. Regis takes the text and the phone vote.

Simmons, who cofounded the legendary rock band KISS more than 35 years ago, will star in a new commercial, letting fans know that Dr Pepper Cherry has just a KISS of cherry flavor, making it amazingly smooth. Shila says that Simmons will be a ‘fizzycan’…it’s fizzician, as in a physician.

The film is to be directed by Peter and Bob Farrelly of Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary fame, who have been trying for 10 years to get the project greenlighted. The anticipated release is sometime next year. Jim Carey doesn’t really seem to fit with the other two.
Greg calls to say that Shila’s ‘Fizzycan’ was hilarious. Shila lashes out at the boys that make fun of her .
Danny’s known Penn Jillette for a long time. Penn’s huge brain has always wowed Danny. Penn went to clown college, but not just any clown college he went to Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show On Earth Clown College. He learned all the normal clown stuff, like make up, prop building, stage acts, and it was public relations that really sunk in. Danny digs Penn’s IQ and their Vegas stage show. Penn has started to teach his kids how to ride unicycles, she made him wear a helmet although it’s less likely to do damage to the skull while falling off of one. It’s scrotal injuries that pose a bigger threat. Danny would love to unicycle joust Penn. Instead of lances they’ll use poles with boxing gloves at the ends. Danny is raving about their stage show. They use real guns and ammunition on stage so the catch a bullet trick won’t be able to be performed in Atlantic City. They also change up their live show, they have four hours of material to pick from for a 90 minute show. Penn will have to practice unicycle riding or the joust. He’s one dude you don’t want to mess with. His house in Vegas is crazy cool.
8:54 – Jill, a Hometown Hotties mother has been recruiting every man she sees to vote for her daughter Christine. The Top 5 will be announced Monday.
9:05 – News with Shila:
One summer night in 2007, a pair of 13-year-old northeastern Pennsylvania girls decided to strip down to their skivvies to beat the heat. As Marissa Miller talked on the phone and Grace Kelly flashed a peace sign, a third girl took a candid shot of the teens in their white bras. It was harmless, innocent fun, the teens say. But the picture somehow wound up on classmates' cell phones, and a prosecutor has threatened to charge Miller and Kelly with child pornography or open lewdness unless they participate in a five-week after-school program followed by probation. If Danny came across these girls he would run in the other direction as fast as he could. Shila had a great time playing naked in a waterfall with a girlfriend of hers in college. Nice.
A man police caught performing a sex act with a car wash vacuum has been sentenced to 90 days in the Saginaw County Jail. Jason Leroy Savage must also submit to drug testing. The 29-year-old Swan Creek Township man was sentenced Wednesday in Saginaw County Circuit Court. Savage pleaded no contest to indecent exposure last month.
Doctors around the United States are reporting a sharp increase in the number of vasectomies performed since the economy soured last year, with one noting that many of his clients are from the beleaguered financial industry. Their best guess is that the trend is due both to a decreased desire to have children because of the expense involved, and an increased desire to get such medical procedures done before their jobs -- and health insurance -- disappear. Danny had one and did it on television. He had the procedure performed on The Other Half.
9:28 – Geoff Snider from the Philadelphia Wings is in the studio. The first time he was here there was total chaos with strippers and little people running around, acting crazy. Geoff’s fighting philosophy is to let his opponent wear themselves out by taking punches. Geoff had his throat smashed by a lacrosse stick at a game in Edmonton and had his Adam’s Apple busted. Friday could be his first game back. Geoff gives Danny a game worn jersey that has a huge rip in the front. Sweet! Geoff asks about Danny’s match against Showtime Danny Young at TNA Lockdown on April 19th.
9:39 – Tim calls to ask how Danny is training for Eric Young. Danny’s been lifting weights, but is fired up to use his legs and do some kicking. The problem is Danny isn’t sure he knows how to pin Eric. Geoff would love to see Danny wrestle and have Danny to a game to make some progress in Shaking Bonaduce.
10:01 – Danny’s Final Thought: You guys haven’t seen this yet, but I will tell you it does make me want to rethink my life a little bit. Not enough to do anything about it, I never do. I rethink my life all the time, and then the insanity just takes back over. The next issue of Philadelphia Magazine to come out is covered with ‘The Top Doctors: The Best New Physicians In Philadelphia’ and then on that same cover it says ‘Danny Bonaduce is even weirder than you think.’ Anyone else think that’s an omen that I should see one of the ‘Top Doctors’ in Philadelphia. But it could wreck the show. What if I was okay? Who would joust Penn Jillette?
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/25/09
6:01 – Danny’s chest is too big he can’t see that he has an Italian Stallion shirt on. He has to wear a shirt that says he’s Italian because he looks Irish. Does God hate Danny? It seems so. It was all over the gossip websites and tabloids that Danny and Amy are engaged now. Some of Amy’s family were hurt that they didn’t get the news before anyone else. Nobody from Danny’s family called because he didn’t do anything outlandish or ridiculous. The East Coast Bonaduces haven’t had a problem distancing themselves from Danny.
6:12 – Yesterday Danny went to pick up some boots he had rubberized so that he can ride his motorcycle with them. The problem was that when heading home he dumped the scooter and shoes spilled on the street. All of Danny’s accidents have been solo operations, no one else involved. He was once pulled over after going 165mph on a highway in California. What did he say to the officer to get out of a ticket? That many people worked hard to make the bike and it would be a disservice if he didn’t max it out. Then the officer asked if he was running from the woman he had a radio show with, Danny responded yes and was let go. Shila and Metro watch out!
6:18 – This morning Danny stopped by Wawa to get some stuff before work and parked on the sidewalk. A police officer walked in asking who owned the scooter outside. Danny, the only one with a helmet, was reluctant to respond. The officer told Danny that he went up a one way street too fast.
Greg calls to say that the city should throw pacifiers on the field when Weaver comes out at the Linc. Danny sees Weaver’s side, he’s just trying to say that Seattle made a mistake, not that Philly is a bad choice.
6:50 – Danny was doing well in his 94WYSP Rock Madness bracket, but had 5 losses yesterday. Kiss beat Green Day, Danny also picked STP over Queen and Collective Soul over Rush. The Green Day loss was emotionally stunning for Danny, he put his personal loyalties to Gene Simmons aside. One of today’s tough ones is Def Leppard vs. The Ramones. Danny became tight with the Ramones, but lived next to Viv Campbell of Def Lep.

Facing anger over corporate bonuses and skepticism about his massive budget, President Barack Obama held a news conference on to explain his economic strategy to a recession-weary public. The news conference comes a day after Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner announced details of a public-private plan to help rid banks of $1 trillion in assets whose uncertain value plunged the global economy into crisis. Danny doesn’t feel better because money isn’t coming back to the people quick enough.
A Philadelphia Police officer was hospitalized after being involved in a two-car accident Tuesday evening. A police cruiser collided with another vehicle at the intersection of 7th and Market Streets in Center City at 8:15 p.m. The driver's side door of the cruiser was crushed in the crash, trapping a 48-year-old female officer inside for nearly 15 minutes. The officer was rushed to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in stable condition with a fractured leg and pelvis.
A committee approved a proposal that would ban the use of cell phones while driving in the city of Philadelphia. If the ban is passed by the full City Council, dialing, texting or e-mailing would be off-limits to motorists within the city limits. Hands-free devices would be allowed. The measure would also prohibit the use of cell phones by bicyclists, inline skaters and people on scooters or skateboards. Fines would range from $150 to $300. Danny jams his cell phone in his helmet while riding his bike. After 20 mph he can’t hear the other person though.
A woman attempting to reconcile with her estranged husband handcuffed herself to him as he slept and then bit him on his torso and arms as he phoned for help, police said. Helen Sun, 37, told police she wanted to have a conversation with Robert Drawbaugh without him leaving. She changed the locks on their bedroom door and, while he was sleeping Monday, handcuffed herself to him, authorities said. What’s the next step? Danny remembers the Farrah Fawcett movie ‘The Burning Bed’ where her character sewed her abusive husband’s pajama’s to the bed to have a conversation before setting him on fire. Ouch!
7:23 – Danny’s looking for people to face off playing Metallica songs with their instruments for Guitar Hero: Metallica. The first caller is David, a 12 year-old with an electric guitar with no amp. Bill calls in to say that he knows how to play all their songs on guitar and bass, but doesn’t have his instruments with him. NOT what Danny asked for. Eddie has his guitar plugged in and says he can play…does he have the chops? We’ll find out after he tunes his guitar. We won’t know because he broke a string. Mike has a guitar and can play! WINNER! Mike gets Guitar Hero: Metallica. Dan calls in to say he can play Metallica by drumming on his steering wheel. Chad will play air guitar, Danny wants to hear it. Tommy says he has his guitar with him….Danny’s excited, until he plays a track from the Death Magnetic CD. Mike wins.
7:48 – Actor Leo Rossi from the new movie The Nail: The Story of Joey Nardone. He played the bad guy in The Accused. He’s been in about 94 other movies, including 10th & Wolf and Analyze This. The Nail is a movie about a boxer that was a contender that got into a bar room brawl that resulted in a fatality. He gets out of jail and wants to get back in the world of boxing and befriends an abused kid and takes him under his wing. All the training shots were filmed at the Front Street Gym. It echoes Tony Luke Jr.’s life growing up. Tony Danza is also in the movie, he’s a much more graceful fighter than Danny. The director wanted the movie to smell like Philadelphia.
8:08 – Entertainment News:
Kiefer Sutherland will be back to play Jack Bauer for an eighth season of the hit counterterrorism drama "24," but the show's longevity will depend on its writers, the actor said Tuesday. The 42-year-old said "24," currently in its seventh season, will start shooting its eighth in May. He spoke during an interview in Hong Kong to promote the new 3-D animated movie "Monsters vs. Aliens," in which he voices the character of General W.R. Monger.
Cindy Crawford thinks she looks "pretty good" naked for a mother-of-two after posing for a nude magazine spread. The 43-year-old - who has posed naked and covered in shaving cream for an Allure magazine photo shoot - thinks her body has aged well. She said: "I think I look pretty good for 43, but I don't look the way I did when I was 23." Cindy - who appears in the April issue of the US publication, focusing on anti-ageing - also admitted she suffers from cellulite. She explained: "I do, and I never said I didn't. I've had two kids and I'm 43, so leave me alone!" She’s hot for any age!
The Karshian family has filed a lawsuit to stop Hustler from releasing a parody of their reality show with Keeping It Up for the KardASSians, which promises "3-way action." Danny doesn’t think any of the Kardashian girls are hot. Shila thinks she’s cute, but her body is wacky. He’s not into a girl who’s ass is as big as a carport.
8:34 – Dr. Gadget is in the studio. He’ll be on The View later this week; he also appears on Extra regularly. He also sold a game to the Game Show Network
RCA has a new HDTV that can also be a computer monitor with a DVD player inside of it. Danny’s first remote was a pair of pliers attached to a broom stick. Dale names all five hosts of The View to win one of the TV’s.
8:48 – Dr. Gadget has a nifty little pen that ties spoken word to a special note pad that unites the written word and recorded audio. Amazing. This would be great for use in college classes. The Livescribe Pulse Pen is space age technology. They’re only available at Amazon.com.
Doctor Gadget started out as an actor that couldn’t find work, but he had a knack for technology and now holds to the products to a high level and takes his knowledge of cutting edge gadgets very seriously.
Staples carries the Mailmate Shredder, the M5. It can shred 12 pages of paper with staples in it. Doctor Gadget shreds a DVD. Killer! It shuts itself down so kids can’t get into trouble with it too. Mike calls in to say that he’s gone through a few shredders and wants to know about the safety features. It’s designed so only the paper goes in and won’t let anything in it that’s not designed to go in it. It also has a forward and a reverse feature to help prevent jams. Also, keep kids and pets away from the shredder.
Two products that really get Dr. Gadget fired up? Miniature video projectors and mini-net books, tiny computers. Danny doesn’t want to learn new technology, he just wants the technology he knows how to use to do a little more.
9:09 – Jill, one of the mothers of one of Danny Bonaduce’s Hometown Hotties wants to get some airtime for her girl. She’s ready to fight! Her daughter is #4 Christina.

The search for four missing fishermen whose boat sank off the New Jersey coast entered its second day on Wednesday with no sign of the men, and fears mounted that the death toll could reach six. The Coast Guard was still holding out hope of finding the men, and has asked boats in the area to keep an eye out for them. "At this time, it's still a rescue operation," Coast Guard Petty Officer Nathan Henise said Wednesday morning.
Some Philadelphia-area motorists may have thought they blundered into a hokey horror movie set, but they're just the latest victims of a new form of outdoor computer hacking. For a while on Sunday night, what was originally a bridge construction warning sign on Route 212 in Richland Township, 35 miles north of Philadelphia, instead read ominously, "ZOMBIES AHEAD."
Wall Street swindler Bernard Madoff is a lucky charm for one New York City construction worker. Queens resident Ralph Amendolaro says he saw Madoff's prison number in a newspaper and had a good feeling so he played the last three digits of it in the state lottery's Numbers game.
Worn-out Haley Batty is a sexsomniac, suffering from an amazing sleeping sickness that really does keep her boyfriends up all night. A medical condition means she can't help pestering them for sex from bedtime till dawn. But she's asleep all the time-and never remembers a thing in the morning. Danny’s ex-wife had a case of just the opposite, she’d fall asleep during sex. Why would a guy break up with her? This could be scary for a man too. Diseases, unwanted pregnancy, legal accusations, sex with unattractive women.
Mike calls to say that he’d volunteer to be his roommate, unless she’s fat or ugly. Not all men are the sluts that Shila thinks we are. Danny cites statistics that more women cheat in marriages than men. Men cheat for sex, women cheat for emotional comfort. Danny can’t get past gnarly teeth. Scott calls to mention a Yahoo.com article that states men cheat for emotional fulfillment.
Steve calls with an analogy, to ask if Shila found $1000 on the street would she try to find the owner or keep it? Danny wants more specific. If it’s in a wallet give it back, if it’s in an envelope then keep it, it used to belong to a drug dealer! Danny admits that in previous relationships he was a pig, Shila’s point is proven. Sandy is 33 and is a sexsomniac. Her husband has grown tired of sex. She wants it 4-6 times a day and her husband is content with twice a week. Danny doesn’t have to launch into foreplay, he just asks his fiancée Amy ‘want to?’ and they start up. Sandy corrects herself, she’s just horny constantly, not a sexsomniac.
9:56 – Who has the best hair in Rock n’ Roll? Danny would say David Coverdale of Whitesnake, Spike says Billy Idol.
10:01 – Danny’s Final Thought: If you’re married to a sexsomniac 1: she acts like she’s asleep when she’s asleep with you or 2: she’s having sex with you while she’s sleeping. One of them really doesn’t like you and one of you thinks she’s having a nightmare. I gotta go with the real live person who has sex with you in their sleep and forget that they did it. Because if a person has sex with me while their wide awake and wakes up in the morning and goes ‘did I have sex with you?’ that means I’m not very good. At least if she has some kind of somnia attached to it, it’s not my fault that she doesn’t remember that I wasn’t very good at it. So if you have to pick, pick the sexsomniac.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/24/09
6:01 – Why is everybody fighting? Danny brings up their infamous Altamont Free Concert where the Rolling Stones hired the Hell’s Angels to run security which lead to a murder and riots. Danny also fought Row J at a Counting Crows/Wallflowers concert. A guy behind him was saying some pretty rude things and it ended up with Danny taking on all comers. Danny’s noticed that there’s more fighting in the world lately. Danny’s found himself fighting management at the radio station over things they don’t want him to say, TNA wants him to do something he thinks is a bad idea, and his trainer is fighting with her superiors at work. Danny’s girlfriend Amy gets up at 4am to put his clothes for the day together. He’s not happy with the outfit she picked out today. Danny owned a gym that had a live DJ, occasionally had bands play live while people worked out, and the shirt he’s wearing today is part of the trainers’ uniform. We need our jobs so much, but the corporations are asking the remaining workers to take on more for less money.
6:13 – John agrees with Danny and the workers are taken for granted. The company he works for doesn’t want to pay overtime and it’s causing issues on the work site. Danny’s noticed that people are walking around work with their heads down waiting for the other shoe to drop. Danny has notes on AIG to get to today. While watching the news he saw a story about cops getting shot in California followed by hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses and robbing the country blind. Chris calls in to say that anyone with a job is lucky to be getting a paycheck. Danny’s just trying to kick ass, but sometimes he gets in trouble for pushing the envelope of corporate policy.
A former Manhattan madam who supplied Eliot Spitzer with hookers also counted Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez as a customer - and found him so charming she dated him herself for free, former employees of the call-girl agency tell the Daily News. A-Rod wooed ex-madam Kristin Davis with flowers, jewelry, persistence and heated e-mails, according to the sources. "Throughout the years, there were a number of clients that I befriended and it was not uncommon for them to want the women they can't have whether it be the phone bookers or the madam," Davis said. Danny’s ex-wife didn’t want him taking steroids. Testosterone increases libido and his wife wasn’t interested in sex with Danny to begin with.
6:57 – Metro came home to an arrest warrant taped to his door yesterday. From experience Danny knows that Metro might have a reason to be worried. The warrant isn’t for him though; it’s for the guy who lived in the apartment before Metro. The taped note means that the SWAT team is going to bust down his door, but all Metro has to do is call the police and alert them to the fact that he’s not the wanted man. The scariest moment of Danny’s life was when the cops busted down Danny’s door in Phoenix.
7:04 – News with Shila:
Transportation officials said it may take several months to determine why a single-engine plane crashed short of an airport runway in Montana yesterday, killing 14 people, including members of three California families. It is too early to say whether the plane, which was configured with 10 seats, including two in the cockpit, may have been overloaded, said Mark Rosenker of the National Transportation Safety Board. A pilot’s license doesn’t mean that the person flying is proficient in instrument ratings.
A paid city firefighter, the son of an arson victim, was charged with intentionally setting two houses on fire. Robert Tracey Jr., 37, of Coatesville, was a volunteer assistant fire chief until earlier this month. He was arrested about 1 p.m. Monday — his birthday — for setting two fires on Friday — one in the 600 block of Madison Street and another in the 100 block of Hope Street. It’s not uncommon that firemen start fires because they want to be heroes.
A 25-year-old Spaniard, in the midst of a sex-change, is expecting twins at the end of September. Ruben Noe Coronado interrupted the process of changing genders so he could keep his female reproductive organs and give birth, London’s Daily Telegraph reported Monday. Coronado is now pregnant with twin boys after undergoing artificial insemination. After the twins are born, Coronado said he plans to complete the gender reassignment surgery and bring up the boys with his partner, 43-year-old Esperanza Ruiz. Cornonado is the first Spanish transsexual to become pregnant and it is thought he will become the world's first transsexual father of twins, if everything goes as planned, according to the report.
A Florida woman was arrested after police said she was feeding her infant while intoxicated. Police said it started when Renee Vanalsburg punched her half-sister in the face. When officers arrived, they said Vanalsburg was breastfeeding her baby and was clearly drunk and high. The baby's father, Marc Rush, was also arrested after police found a bottle of oxycodone and a tin with white powder in the baby's crib. Police said broken glass, ant killer, spray paint and knives were scattered on floor of the baby's room.
7:33 – Danny Bonaduce Life Coach
Tom has been separated from his wife for years but she’s stalling on the divorce and he just wants to get out. Divorce costs so much because it’s worth it. Danny had to be willing to sack up in a big way and be willing to walk out with nothing. If Tom starts wanting things it’ll be over, stop fighting and he wins.
Michelle has been married for 4 years, he’s 13 years younger than her and he seems to have no sex drive. That was the reason for Danny’s divorce. The lack of sex lead Danny to cheat, but Gretchen liked the lifestyle she was living. A good friend would show interest in intimacy just to give their wife what they want. It seems that he’d rather spend time with their dogs than her. Danny tried to teach romance, but it’s not possible for some people to learn. A relationship without romance is death.
7:49 – Lou’s ex-wife is coming after him for more child support because she quit her job and hooked up with another man that takes care of her. Danny can’t fix this but he thinks that the odds are in Lou’s favor. From experience Danny knows that judges aren’t likely to mess around with figures. Judges are not man haters and she’ll have to show why she needs more money, which will be hard if the kid is already well taken care of.
Chris is 23 and can’t make a relationship stick. Danny would create situations in relationships that would be a way out. Chris doesn’t like to leave on bad terms, but leaving a girl that still wants you won’t happen on good terms. Danny’s answer is that he’s 23; he needs to go have fun.

Oscar winner Robin Williams is expected to make a complete recovery from his recent heart surgery in the next two months and plans to resume his comedy tour afterward, his representatives said on Monday. Williams, 57, one of Hollywood's leading comedians and known for his manic stand-up routine steeped in wacky accents and improvisation, had surgery on March 13 at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. The hospital used Patch Adams as aesthesia. Danny thinks that Robin Williams is real hit or miss on stage. He doesn’t go up with any jokes written or a formal act, so he either flies high or crashes and burns.
NASA's online contest to name a new room at the international space station went awry. Comedian Stephen Colbert won. The name "Colbert" beat out NASA's four suggested options in the space agency's effort to have the public help name the addition. The new room will be launched later this year. NASA's mistake was allowing write-ins. Colbert urged viewers of his Comedy Central show, "The Colbert Report" to write in his name. And they complied, with 230,539 votes. That clobbered Serenity, one of the NASA choices, by more than 40,000 votes. Nearly 1.2 million votes were cast by the time the contest ended Friday.

Danny Bonaduce is wedding his girlfriend of about two years, Amy Railsback, she confirms to Usmagazine.com. "He proposed a whole bunch of times over the last couple of years, but you know, it's never quite official until you have a ring on your finger," Railsback, 26 -- a former teacher who now works as Bonaduce's manager -- tells Us. "I'm a little giddy about it." It's the third marriage for Bonaduce and first for Railsback. Danny’s first marriage was a disaster. He married a psychotic Japanese woman who beat herself with a rice paddle and heard voices. Amy is a woman Danny can like until he dies. If Amy is out of her mind enough to marry Danny do we congratulate her?

New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo hopes more AIG employees will return their bonuses, after 15 of the top 20 bonus recipients at the troubled insurer agreed to return their money.

Shila wants a bonus for being cute? Danny’s not going to hold his breath.
Two Philadelphia police offers are still in the hospital Monday night after a cruiser crash in West Philadelphia. Police officials confirm the crash happened around 4 o'clock Monday afternoon. The two police cruisers side swiped each other when one was heading south and the other was heading westat the intersection of 50th and Haverford. The collision trapped an officer inside his car.

Tata cars…hehe.
Kurby and Krystal McDonald's love story began behind the counter. "I started working here and her mother was working here and she said, 'my daughter's going to start here soon.' Is she single? 'yeah,'" said Kurby. Soon after they started dating, and now nearly a year later, family and friends came together at the White Castle in London for their wedding, slider cake and all. "Usually people get married in a church, but think about it, it's going to be a wedding to remember. How many weddings can you go to and then talk about it later and say 'hey, I had a wedding in a White Castle?'" said Kelli Vanarsdale, a friend of the bride.
9:30 – Noel Biderman of AshleyMadison.com is on the show. Danny digs this guy because he’s about women and money. It’s the number one meeting place for people in unhappy relationships? Danny thinks it’s a site for everyone, not just people that aren’t satisfied in relationships. There are cases like that, but it’s not the majority. For some people they need a change of pace, but don’t want out of their marriage. Noel gets an overwhelming amount of ‘thank you’ mail and not much hate mail. Affairs at work and single dating services both lead to bigger problems.
9:36 – Could monogamy be the death of relationships? It’s a fairly new idea practiced by a small amount of the world. There are many rules set forth by institutions that aren’t really practical. Danny wants to be Noel.

6:02 – Danny’s feeling a little worn down. A long weekend started off with a brawl against a TNA star, and then he went to New York to tape The Smoking Gun Presents World’s Dumbest in which he threw himself down a flight of stairs and also ate worms.
6:07 – Some of Danny’s big name wrestling friends have told him to be careful when wrestling Eric Young. If Eric Young wants to he can do some permanent damage to Danny. Time to spend some time at the wrestling school! Danny’s been watching TNA videos for some ideas about moves. Eric Young was humiliated because he’s a 12 year-pro that has to fight a guy he doesn’t think is up to his level. The first slap didn’t hurt so much, but it was the second slap that stung.
6:16 – Danny’s not so excited about getting hurt at TNA Lockdown, but the show will be amazing. He’ll have a bitchin’ time until he gets his elbow snapped.
Shila and Metro are delirious with March Madness. Danny thinks it’s too much work. Danny liked watching the transformation of golf from a snooty sport to a game any man can play. Danny never played sports growing up.
6:54 – Mike calls in to say that he met Danny a while ago and gave him his book, that was about six years ago. Danny did read his book; Mike’s been clean for 17 years now. Danny didn’t have a drinking problem, he had a marriage problem. Michelle is on the phone to say she liked Danny on Celebrity Championship Wrestling and she’ll be at the Liacouras Center on April 19th to watch Danny in the steel cage.

Seven children and seven adults died in a plane crash Sunday in Butte, Montana, according to the FAA. Martha Guidoni said this photo was taken after she and her husband saw the plane "nosedive" in Butte, Montana.

The pilot and co-pilot aboard a FedEx cargo plane were killed when the plane burst into flames Monday while landing at Tokyo's Narita airport in Japan, airport and hospital officials said. Video from the landing showed the plane bouncing at least twice on the runway and veering left as it turned on its side before bursting into flames. The fire destroyed the aircraft, which was identified by FedEx as a McDonnell Douglas MD-11.Flying is still the safest form of transportation. There has been a rash of plane crashes lately. Danny’s signed up for flying lessons in every city he’s lived in, but has never completed the necessary flight time to get licensed.
New Castle County Police are looking for two siblings who are accused of assaulting their parents with deadly weapons. Police were called to the Elms Apartments in Newark, Delaware after reports of a fight in progress. Authorities said a 43-year-old man was apparently being chased in a parking lot by his two sons who were armed with knives. The father told police he was able to escape on foot, but his sons returned home to attack their mother. Nicolas Scanio, 21, and his 15-year-old brother, Allen Stevens, are wanted for aggravated menacing and possession of a deadly weapon.
New Jersey is smoothing out differences over a plan to ban bare-it-all bikini waxing. The state is reversing course on the proposal after angry salon owners complained about losing business ahead of swimsuit season. The state Cosmetology and Hairstyling Board proposed banning so-called “Brazilian” bikini waxing after two women were hospitalized for infections following the procedure. But on Friday, Consumer Affairs Director David Szuchman effectively killed the plan. Danny likes it smooth, but he’d take a girl with an ‘Abe Lincoln’ if it could recite the Gettysburg Address.
A woman demanded police search a computer for evidence her ex-boyfriend had looked at child porn - instead they found videos of her having sex with a dog. Michelle Owen, 24, of Indiana, has been charged with two felony counts of bestiality after the police found two incriminating videos in the computer's recycle bin. When an officer told Owen he had found videos of her on the laptop and asked if she knew what they were, she replied: "The one with the dog." The videos showed her engaging in a sexual act with her pet beagle Toby. Owen claimed she made the videos when she was drunk and tried to delete them the next day. Nothing goes away on computers; Danny suggests throwing a hard drive in the river.
7:40 – We have an update in the Shila/Sean/Shila’s Mom triangle. Shila’s been keeping her relationship with Sean a secret from her mother for two years because she was expected to be in an arranged marriage. Shila was certain that her mother would not accept that she loved a white man. It turns out that some woman from Canada who had a son that Shila didn’t want to marry sent off an e-mail to Shila’s mother letter her know what was going on. Shila didn’t have the intestinal fortitude to step up and tell her mom the truth or cut Sean lose.

Shila’s mother was so upset that she was lied to that she didn’t talk to Shila for two whole days. They met up this weekend and Shila’s mom said that Sean is a decent guy who she likes, but was very unhappy that she was lied to. Sean and Shila have discussed marriage, but there hasn’t been a proposal yet. Shila did tell her that there is a strong possibility that they could get married, mom will deal with that when the time comes. After years of lying to her mother and hiding Sean, when facing the music, there were no dire consequences. Things were tense between the two of them, but they were able to talk to each other throughout the weekend.
7:50 – Mike calls to say that if he were Sean he’d tell Shila to kiss off. It wouldn’t be so easy for Danny. He would think ‘today is the day she’ll tell her mother she loves me.’ Shila was tentative to say anything to her mother because she didn’t know how serious things would get with Sean. Mike calls to say that his family went though something similar and what made the situation better was grandchildren. He even converted to Judaism for his wife, worked out great.
7:55 – Chrissy calls in to ask if Shila’s mom was suspicious Shila’s heart wasn’t into an arranged marriage when being set up with other men. She would ask Shila if she was hiding someone constantly. Tim calls to counter Shila’s statement that it is difficult to date someone outside of her culture, but if it was so taboo she wouldn’t be doing it. Danny’s solution for dealing with parents that don’t want you to marry outside the culture? Bring home drug addicted whores for three years then finally introduce them to the real girl and they’ll scream ‘Marry her!’
8:06 – Chip calls to say that people need to stop calling with ideas. WHAT??? Shila’s mom is not aware that Shila is having sex with Sean. Dee is a mom with two grown children, says that her mom will come around, and that it’s not a mystery that Shila’s knockin’ boots with Sean. Dawn knows that cultures are different, but a mother’s love is unconditional. The lies are what hurts.

He's obviously never met Kolan McConiughey, a mentally disabled man considered one of the nation's top Special Olympics bowlers, with five perfect games to his credit.

6:31 – SPORTS: Villanova won a close one in the NCAAs yesterday. Shila went nuts asking people in the office to help her fill out her bracket.

6:41 – Hank the Cop calls in to say that he digs the show.
6:44 – Dave Vitarelli of Vitarelli’s in Cherry Hill, NJ is in the studio to talk about being the restaurant featured this week on 94WYSP’s Dinner Deals. Danny is a fan of their award winning pizza.

Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter delivered a $3.84 billion budget and five-year plan to City Council on Thursday that would usher in staff and service cuts, new fees and temporary increases in the city’s sales and property taxes to offset an expected $1.4 billion shortfall. The housing tax is it going up 19% or to 19%? It’ll make a huge difference in Danny’s world. He’s closing on his house today.
Danny takes calls that confirm that the house tax will be raised an additional 19%. Ouch. How will people be able to handle that? Josh, the phone answerer comes in to explain that it’s 19% of the previous year’s tax, not the value of the house. Sweet relief!
New Jersey is drawing the line when it comes to bikini waxing. The state Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling is moving toward a ban on genital waxing altogether after two women reported being injured in their quest for a smooth bikini line. Danny was waxed once by his kids, who didn’t pull hard enough, and he’d be willing to give up national secrets. Nutter can wax his ass if he keeps the taxes down.

Danny will wrestle in a six-sided ring surrounded by steel! The buildup is excruciating. ‘Showtime’ Eric Young is Danny’s opponent! Eric is 5’11”, weighs in at 225 lbs. and at 29 has 12 years of professional wrestling experience. TNA Lockdown is at the Liacouras Center on April 19th. His finishing move is the Youngblood Neckbreaker. Sting is Eric’s hero in the ring. How does Eric feel about fighting Danny? It’s a letdown; it doesn’t do much for his career. Danny IS a professional wrestler, he was paid to be on Celebrity Championship Wrestling. Eric would rather be wrestling someone on the TNA roster. His biggest wins are title matches he’s won. The biggest loss? Going against Danny at Lockdown. A bigger letdown would be if 49 year-old Danny Bonaduce knocks him out. Eric doesn’t think that’s possible. Danny thinks Eric has an offensive tone.

President Obama might have attracted some negative attention after his appearance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night. Talking about his dismal bowling skills, Obama said he'd been practicing and had gotten his score up to 129. "Oh, no, that's very good," Leno told Obama. "It was like the Special Olympics or something," Obama joked, drawing laughter from the funnyman and his audience. Danny didn’t think it was a big deal, but Clinton/Lewinsky wasn’t a big deal either. Danny says similar things and never means any malice. However it shows terrible judgment. Mario Lopez called Danny retarded on television once and had to writer hundreds of apology letters. Before the pre-taped program even aired, White House officials were issuing a mea culpa. "The President made an offhand remark making fun of his own bowling that was in no way intended to disparage the Special Olympics," Obama spokesman Bill Burton told reporters on Air Force One after the taping.

In one instance, McCauley was accused of forging a $3 million check written from Cook's account to himself. Why would he have $3 million in a checking account? Danny hasn’t had his own checking account in years to protect himself.
"Behind the Music” once was a high-flying VH1 television documentary series, with a tried-and-true formula about the dramatic ascents and abrupt declines of popular musicians, told through bombastic narration and soft-focus interviews.

Ever wonder what it would sound like if Fox News host Bill O'Reilly got up close and personal talking about sex with you? The audiobook of O'Reilly's 1998 novel, "Those Who Trespass," and putting some of the most interesting parts online. Danny’s a big fan of books on tape. Who’s the better book on tape reader?

Teachers at South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas allegedly sent troubled students into a steel cage in a locker room to settle their differences. The Dallas Morning News says the cage fights took place between 2003 and 2005 between pupils who wore no boxing gloves or head protection. "It was gladiator-style entertainment for the staff," said Frank Hammond who was fired from South Oak Cliff High School and has filed a whistleblower lawsuit. "They were taking these boys downstairs to fight. And it was sanctioned by the principal and security." Some kids belong in cages, but not fighting in them. Danny’s tactic would be to break fingers of the quarterback or the kids in band.
A 61-year-old man has sued his former employer, claiming he was fired from a $75,000-a-year salesman's job because of his waistline. But the employer says Patrick J.

The Lakeland Ledger reported that 15-year-old Jonathon Locked Jr. was suspended from Bill Duncan Opportunity School under a school district rule against disruptive behavior.

Danny wanted to be in radio station management but realized that he didn’t have the temperament to do it.
9:18 – Danny takes a call from someone that remembers that he was the only person in the history of the show that had a gun drawn on him and Eric Young is going to have his hands full. Tim calls to say that he just received a phone call from
another station telling him he could win a thousand dollars if he listened to their station. He’s sticking with Danny!
9:37 – Danny replays the audio of today’s chaos with TNA’s Eric Young in the studio. Danny didn’t realize that in all the commotion that Eric was throwing punches to his body, although Danny had a fist full of Eric’s face and rings on every one of his fingers.
Rich calls in to say that Eric is pretty active in the ring and has a gimmick, Super Eric, which comes to save the day. The guy that hit Danny was no clown. Danny wouldn’t be opposed to getting paid by TNA now. Any calls to say that Danny should be carried into the ring and be the King of Philadelphia.
10:01 – Danny’s Final Thought: If a man strikes you on the left cheek, offer him the right. But if he strikes the right, take him by the sack and throw him to the floor.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/19/09
6:01 – Danny got home at 1:30am with the taste of cigarettes, booze, and perfume in his mouth. He had a very good time at the Entertainer of the Year Awards at Delilah’s. Danny did get to hear early morning workout, so now’s he’s full of energy, but has no direction. Danny was blown away by the performances by the girls at Delilah’s. The girls put on elaborate stage shows, including one girl that had a boxing theme. Danny thought the girl was going to punch him because of his pugilist past. The judging rules were very strict and ‘Don’t Bone the Judges’ is one of them. Danny thought it would be a great idea to climb the 25 foot pole at the center of the club after watching it get cleaned between sets. On his way up Danny realized that it wasn’t that easy to climb a slick pole and the ammonia soaked towel used to clean it was making him dizzy. 20 feet up he realized there was no chance he could make it to the top, he grunted out the last 5 feet to the cheers of the crowd. Miss Nude World 2008 has pants on all night, how disappointing.
6:31 – March Madness starts today, the only pool Danny cares about is a swimming pool.
6:35 – SPORTS: A Delco pot dealer said Correll Buckhalter was a client, Sixers lost to Phoenix 116-126. Shila went to Villanova so she’s rooting for the Wildcats. A lot of Danny’s family attended or taught at Temple make him an Owls fan. President Obama filled out a bracket too!
6:56 – Danny filled out his bracket for 94WYSP’s Rock Madness. Check it out here. There were some tough matchups for him, like Green Day vs. Kiss.

Three intersections will be blocked off: Shawmont and Eva, Summit and Eva, and Hagy's Mill and Port Royal. The city has given permission to allow the migration to proceed safely.
Stephanie calls in about the Walmart text story. She received the text message from multiple people and decided going there wasn’t worth seeing if it was a hoax or not. If a random text message keeps Danny from doing something then he would feel like he was beaten by someone.
7:34 – Who Would Win In a Fight: Eagle vs. Wildcat
Because March Madness starts today, the Villanova Wildcats take on the American University Eagles in the first round. Like every fight in the WWWIAF League this will be happening in an empty warehouse. Metro takes the ferocious wildcat, which would swat the bird with it’s big paw and maul it. Shila points out that a wildcat is slightly bigger than a house cat and takes the eagle. The eagles has sharp talons, great vision, the upper hand with the higher ground, and it could drop stuff on the cat. Danny takes the eagle too, after seeing an eagle swoop down and pluck a fish out of a lake, the cat doesn’t stand a chance.
7:44 – Bill calls in to say the eagle would win and that Shila and Danny won the argument. Gary thinks the eagle would rip the eyes out of the wildcat. Vicious! Zoli calls to say that even if the eagle picked up the wildcat and dropped him the cat would still land on it’s feet. Danny points out that you never see dead eagles in the street, but you do see wildcat roadkill. Zoli counters that they were chasing eagles.
7:53 – Lou takes the eagle too. Danny saw an owl take away his friend’s tiny dog. Bitchin’! BBQ Bob takes the eagle because they sink their talons into the spine of their prey, that’ll paralyze anything. Chris takes the wildcat because of the limited space of the warehouse. Carla takes the eagle because of the force it attacks with when it swoops down to attack. The eagle takes 58% of the text vote and in calls the eagle takes the calls 5-2. Eagle = winner!

Those areas include Hoboken, Morris Township, South Brunswick, Woodbridge, Gloucester Township, Cherry Hill, Stratford, Deptford, Monroe and Glassboro. The cameras will be installed at intersections with a history of violations and crashes due to naughty drivers who run red lights.

Cute as Hell is a new social network for pet owners that just launched in beta. Pet-related social networks aren’t exactly scarce, but Cute as Hell is interesting because it takes several tried and true viral concepts and integrates them into the network. It can probably best be described as a cross between Cute Overload, Hot or Not (for pets) and MySpace. Two features that make this so are the so called cuteness rating and the Thunderdome. The former lets visitors rate pets by their cuteness, while the latter is a tournament where pets can compete for the title of the cutest pet. If Danny met a girl that had a profile for her pet online he wouldn’t date her. He’d nail her though.
9:37 – Danny can now officially wrestle in a match at TNA Lockdown at the Liacouras Center on April 19th. The CCW is letting him do a one-off event. Danny doesn’t know who he’s wrestling though. Danny would prefer to have a match against a giant because there are more moves possible. He doesn’t want to wrestle a woman or a midget. The opponent will be revealed on the show tomorrow, live on the air. It has to be someone willing to protect him, because if a move goes wrong it could mean permanent injury, for both of them.
9:58 – Danny’s Final Thought: When the best outcome is pain and blood, and the worst outcome is death I’m starting to think I have some serious issues I need to see someone about. And maybe I’ll see someone from out here because I always spend money on psychiatrists that listen to the show.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/18/09
6:02 – Last night Danny dictated an emotional e-mail to Jeff, the Program Director. It’s never good to commit to ink, for fear of blackmail. Once Danny was at the Sky Bar on the Sunset Strip during the day, did some drinking, and failed to notice the photo shoot with hot models. Later Danny got a call from the National Enquirer telling him they had about 50 photos of Danny naked at the pool. He was cool with being published as long as the black bar they used to block his junk did him justice. They called back to say EVERYONE has naked photos of Danny.
Amy, Danny’s a girlfriend, does a lot of work handling his career during the week. She answers a lard number of e-mails during the day. When he got home yesterday he walked in on her watching ‘The Wrestler’ and was having a VERY good time with herself while watching Mickey Rourke on the screen. The old Danny would not have handled it well. Danny took some of his boots to the cobbler to get reheeled and had the heels taken down on a pair. He’s accepted his height.
Danny doesn’t like the sound of Twittering, but he did step up when he was told to by his coach. MySpace is Danny’s only website for networking for hooking up. Danny’s lost in the world of Twitter and widgets. Shila doesn’t dig Twitter. Metro does. Danny’s going to start up Faceplant.com.6:32 – SPOTS
6:45 – Brian from Levittown wrote in to get Danny to tell his Horrible Hollywood Moment with Green Day.
Danny and his daughter were at a VH1 awards show and his wife and daughter were in the crowd. Green Day was sitting in front of them; Danny is nominated for Best Reality Show. During that award the producers had a close up of his daughter Isabella who was beaming, but after the graphic clip of Danny plunging a hypodermic needle in his arm her mood changed and she started to freak out. Knowing what was happening Billy Joe from Green Day pulled her over and comforted her. Isabella is a huge Green Day fan and they saved the day. Danny lost the award to Bo Bice from American Idol.
7:00 – News with Shila:
A Philadelphia police officer is recovering from injuries sustained in a car crash. Capt. John Cerrone says Officer Paul Port was semiconscious when taken to Temple University Hospital after Tuesday night's crash in Manayunk.
A fight between two employees prompted SWAT team members and officers to descend upon a Camden County business Tuesday afternoon. The incident began at about 3:30 p.m. at the Furniture Factory Warehouse on E. Gloucester Pike in Barrington, New Jersey. Employees apparently called police after the suspect was involved in some altercation with another employee. Danny just bought a house. He’s interested in furniture, even if there’s bullet holes.
Officials in Arkansas say all 10 children who drank windshield wiper fluid last week at a home day care center are out of the hospital and doing fine. State human services agency spokeswoman Julie Munsell said Monday that the last of the youngsters was released Friday, the day after the center's owner mistook the blue liquid as Kool-Aid. When Danny was in the dumps and didn’t have much money he would drink a juice called Tic Tac that was reported to cause blindness in Mexican towns. Rather than stop drinking it he would test his vision every morning. If he could see, he could drink.
A man accused of choking his wife after a heated argument probably should have dressed differently. Bradley Gellert was wearing a T-shirt bearing the phrase "I Heart My Marriage" when he was arrested on a charge of domestic battery by strangulation. Gellert screamed and threw various items at the victim before grabbing her neck and choking her. The shirt was reportedly a promotional item for the 2008 Kirk Cameron film "Fireproof." Other child stars turned to drugs, Kirk turned to Jesus.
David Holmes starts every Southwest Airlines flight with a routine but when David Holmes used to give the pre-flight instructions, the passengers would tune out and glaze over, well not anymore. Danny digs the guy and predicts big things for him, but he doesn’t want to see that guy on the ride home from Las Vegas after a weekend of losing at the casinos.
7:31 – Danny doesn’t know if a new device, Fyre TV, is genius or junk. It’s a contraption that helps narrow down the specific type of porn you want to see and even jump a slide show of money shots. It is essentially a search engine that allows users to browse streaming porn while using a combination of queries including: category, title, star, studio and series. Going to have to go with genius for this one. Shila doesn’t know a man who wouldn’t be interested in this. It’s turned into a game for Danny and Amy to find cool, bizarre stuff. Could it be addictive or desensitize?
Jim calls in to say he digs the idea, but it would turn men into hermits. Anita has a Fyre TV box that she uses with her husband and it’s enhanced their relationships. Maryann doesn’t think Fyre TV could be an addictive tool. Danny digs the creative aspect of being able to find whatever you want whenever you want it. Sometimes the fun is in the hunt though. If there’s unicycle porn Danny’s going to find it. Tim thinks this is genius because he’s tired of all the movies he owns. There’s even Star Wars porn on it!

Singer Belinda Carlisle and her partner Jonathan Roberts became the first couple eliminated from Dancing with the Stars' eighth season during last night's live results show broadcast on ABC.
A Los Angeles man who pleaded guilty in December to illegally uploading nine Guns N’ Roses songs onto his music site could be thrown in the slammer for six months if federal prosecutors in the case get their way. Kevin Cogill was arrested last summer after posting tracks on 18 June from GNR’s album Chinese Democracy to his Antiquiet website. He saw the copyright violation charge against him reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor after he admitted to streaming the pre-release tunes. Danny believes leaking tracks is theft, even if it took almost two decades for Axl to release the album.
Slash will play guitar on a cover of Led Zeppelin’s ‘Kashmir’ with British classical musicians Escala. The ladies’ SyCo Records boss Simon Cowell cooked up the scheme over cocktails with the guitar genius at Elton John’s Oscars party in Los Angeles last month. Danny isn’t a fan of people remaking Zeppelin songs.
There will be a "Transformers 3," but its release date is turning out to be less than certain. On Monday, Paramount Pictures scheduled the DreamWorks-produced "Transformers 3" for July 1, 2011, even while acknowledging that no cast had yet been hired. On Tuesday, director Michael Bay took issue with the date. "Paramount made a mistake," Bay wrote on his blog. "They asked me on the phone, (and) I said yes to July 4 (weekend) -- but for 2012. Whoops, not 2011! That would mean I would have to start prep in September. No way. My brain needs a break from fighting robots."
Cult 1980s TV show MacGyver is to be remade as a feature length movie, it has been announced. No stars have committed to the project but film studio New Line says it is looking for "an A-list writer". MacGyver ran from 1985-92, and starred Richard Dean Anderson from Stargate: Atlantis and SG-1 as an extremely resourceful secret agent. More remakes? That worked well for Knight Rider.
8:31 – Peyton and Melissa from Delilah’s are in the studio. Danny’s had very positive experiences at Delilah’s. They’re not just a strip joint; they’re a steak house too! They’ll be crowning a new Entertainer of the Year tonight. Danny is startled to learn that he will be a celebrity judge. The way to get to Danny’s heart at a gentlemen’s club? Give lap dances to his girlfriend Amy.

Philadelphia police need for the public's help finding a man seen on tape just before he allegedly tried to rape a student. Police said the man entered the True Bright Academy Charter School on North Broad Street at 7:40 a.m. on Tuesday. A 15 year old female complainant was in the building when the man allegedly approached her from behind, grabbed her and pinned her against the wall.
The U.S. Coast Guard rescued three people Tuesday from a life raft off of the New Jersey coast. The fishing crew was forced to jump from their vessel into a life raft when its boat erupted in flames. This happened about 30 miles southeast of Cape May. A nearby fishing boat responded to a distress call and plucked the crew from the life. It’s super-bad luck to name a boat after someone you know. Renaming a boat or ship requires a sacrifice to Poseidon, but it doesn’t have to be good champagne.
The family of a Stamford woman viciously attacked by a 200-pound pet chimpanzee last month may seek as much as $50 million in a lawsuit filed against the pet's owner, her attorneys said. Charla Nash, 55, remains medically sedated in critical condition in the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. Her legal team said during a news conference Tuesday that she does not have medical insurance, and damages awarded in the suit would go to her medical care and the care of her 17-year-old daughter.
A brothel in Berlin says it is trying to lure recession-wary customers by offering a flat rate for prostitutes with unlimited food and drinks. The brothel said $90 can now purchase time with any of the establishment's women plus all the food and drinks a customer can consume, during off-peak times, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. weekdays, and 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. weekends, Der Spiegel reported Monday. Some places have a flat rate for one ‘ride’ while others go by time. Metro is determined to be in a room and watch a couple have sex, but not participate. Shila thinks that’s freaky. Danny offered to let Metro watch him with Amy, but that’s too close for comfort.
9:19 – Mike calls in to offer his services and make Metro’s fantasy come true. Would his girlfriend be fine with it? He’d rather hear her complain than Metro. A little alcohol and some Vicodin will make her say yes. John calls in to talk about swingers club. He’s a member of the club and it’s outside Philadelphia somewhere. Danny’s heard about key parties, but never went to one. Shila’s been to screw parties where nut and bolts are passed around and the couples match up. Gary got to live out the fantasy and it wasn’t all the expected it to be, he wanted to see more than he was allowed upon the agreement. Maybe Metro can walk around and get a better view. Shila thinks this is out of character for Metro.
9:26 – A nameless caller from Mont Co. had a bad situation with his wife, they had a threesome and it didn’t work well for the marriage. This isn’t a threesome. Shila thinks this is too close to cheating. Danny says if there’s no contact there’s no cheating.
9:57 – George calls in to invite Metro to watch him have sex. There are no inhibitions in his bedroom, he’s 45 and his fiancé is 39. Metro’s in! You don’t get fat from looking at food; you get fat from eating it!
10:03 – Danny’s Final Thought: There are all sorts of different kinds of relationships. There are ‘if you look at another girl you’re cheating’ then there’s the kind of relationship where you go to those key parties and you have a free, open relationship. Metro is in a relationship where his girlfriend will allow him his fantasy because he doesn’t touch anybody. And then there’s all of our relationships with Shila. No matter what we do, no matter what we say, no matter how good we are we’re just dirty, lying, cheating bastards. And she’s probably right.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/17/09
6:01 – Danny is feeling good after a nice workout this morning. Danny spent yesterday afternoon on South Street and had plans to go to Mike’s Famous Harley-Davidson and buy a leather jacket with a rhinestone skull on the back. He was told that he wasn’t allowed to get the jacket because the manager didn’t want him wearing a women’s leather jacket while representing a sponsor. Danny and his girlfriend use the ‘C’ word affectionately. They were in an adult novelty store; they came across some very graphic utility belts for women. Danny made a comment saying that Amy needed that, but it wasn’t Amy that was standing next to him. Danny was embarrassed, the girl didn’t laugh, but just turned and walked away. Awfully embarrassing. He would have rather lost a finger than go through that moment. Danny has lots of useless knowledge in his brain. That’s what years of cocaine and books will do to you mind.
Two NFL players may have died just a few hours after the fishing boat they were in overturned in rough water, possibly before rescuers were even alerted that they and two others were lost off the west coast of Florida, according to Coast Guard records of the boating accident. Getting different stories from the lone survivor would lead some people to suspect foul play. Danny was such a mess when he met Amy he still doesn’t have clear memories from their first month together.
6:35 – Danny asked Amy to take a Maxim sex survey. Did she cheat or give wrong answers?
One answer that bothers Danny is the response to ‘How Many Lesbian Experiences Have You Had?’ She didn’t answer it. Danny knows that she’s attracted to other women and they’ve talked about it in depth. If she was bi her stock would go way up. He’s certain she’s curious, but not into dating a girl. Did she leave it unanswered to be cruel to him or did she have an experience that she doesn’t want to tell him about? He thinks she’s toying with him.
Danny’s also upset that in a multiple choice question she answered ‘All of the Above’ for the list of chivalrous acts that she would prefer. If she wants chivalry then she can answer the girl on girl question!
6:52 – 94WYSP March Rock Madness is here and Danny is fired up that Aerosmith is a #1 seed! Fill out the bracket and you could win a 50” HDTV!
6:56 – Gibbons comes in the studio, he’s in a diaper and has a green goatee and Mohawk. He’s got a shamrock shaved in his back hair! He’ll be in Cherry Hill giving out Lucky Charms and inside one of the boxes will be Cruefest 2 tickets.
7:09 – News with Shila: Guilty is the verdict on all 137 counts for Vince Fumo in his federal corruption trail. His co-defendant Ruth Arnao is also guilty on all counts against her. The man, who once held arguably the most powerful political position in the state, now faces time in federal prison. If Danny went to prison he wouldn’t give himself much time. He thinks that with the good health care and meals that Fumo will get along with time off for good behavior and overcrowding, Fumo will spend only a few years behind bars.
A rash of pizza shop robberies in South Philadelphia has owners and workers on edge. Police believe the same gunman is responsible for four armed holdups this month alone. Each time the bandit's M.O. is the same. He looks at the menu or orders food. Then, he pulls out a black .45 handgun and demands money.
An Emerson, N.J., man surprised motorists along a busy stretch of the Schuylkill in Lower Merion, Montgomery County, about 10:30 a.m. yesterday when he ditched his Toyota Camry in the passing lane, stepped out of the car and stripped nude, state police said. Darian A. Behrang, 28, then took a jog westbound on the Expressway and made it about a mile before state police responded, they said.
Authorities arrested a 32-year-old Texas man on drug charges on Thursday after construction workers saw him on his hands and knees, eating mud and growling like a dog. A woman who accompanied the man from Texas told investigators he had been wandering around the complex and eating dog food. Danny’s done heroin and PCP by accident before. He snorted China White because he thought it was coke. Not a good time. Angel Dust made him hallucinate like a crazy man.
Jerry calls in to say that he was at a party and did Angel Dust, the cops busted in and Jerry stood on a coffee table hoping that if he stood still they wouldn’t notice him. Didn’t work. He got popped in the skull and hauled off.
7:40 – Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach
Eric just started a new job, has a new girlfriend, but can’t make time for the gym. Danny says to get a muscle head magazine, check out the last 8 issues. The ads all have the same 15 guys holding trophies. Those guys all have day jobs, but it’s the dedication that makes the difference. Time might be precious, but the effort is what will make a difference.
Steve has been married for almost 3 years, has a kid, but an ex looked him up and told him that he’s the father of her 7 year-old that he didn’t know about. Danny didn’t like his kids until they turned 4. She’s done the hard part! It’s compliment to be the male role model in his life and as long as it doesn’t cause issues with the wife, which it shouldn’t, everything will be alright.
Shannon is recently separated; she moved in with her parents, he moved to California. She likes to party, have a good time, but is unfulfilled by the men she spends time with now. She needs to figure out who she is. Is she the mother or the party girl? She needs to be thinking ‘love ‘em and keep ‘em’ instead of ‘love ‘em and leave ‘em.’ Danny suggests finding good men with good jobs at hospital cafeterias and start attending church. Shila suggests meeting men through friends.
Tom is a truck driver that’s home every other weekend. His wife’s best friend drinks a bit and gets aggressive with her sexual advances. Women can be catty and want to have one up on their friend. Is she interested in him or just wants what her friend has? Tom isn’t interested in her; however she’s not getting the signals. Tom wants to tell his wife, but thinks she’ll lose her cool and hand him his head. The answer? Nanny cam! If he can provide proof of the come ons, then he’ll be 100% in the right.
Jeff has been seeing his buddy’s ex and wants him to tell the friend about the relationship. They have a kid together. Danny says Jeff has to be straight up and be the one to come clean so that she isn’t the one. The friend will be hurt, but he’ll get over it.
8:09 – Danny checks in with Gibbons again. The Cherry Hill Police Department stopped by to monitor the madness. April won the Cruefest 2 tickets. She has a pair of eyes tattooed on her chest. Interesting.

Jenna Jameson and her boyfriend of two years, Tito Ortiz, welcomed twin boys Monday morning. Speaking from experience her work parts will never be the same after kids. How will being a porn star affect these kids? Danny would rather have had a mother in porn than the abusive father he had.
Jennifer Love Hewitt has a new man. “Yes, we are dating,” admitted Upper Darby's Jamie Kennedy. Though he said the new couple isn’t engaged, the comedian said they’re “more than in love.” Jamie was one of Danny’s worst interviews ever.
The actor famous for playing "Borat" tricked the Alabama National Guard into giving him a military uniform and allowed him to briefly train with them - a ruse that he told them was part of a German TV documentary. The hoax - which included comedian Sacha Baron Cohen exposing his thong underwear while changing clothes - had the cadets fooled until an officer recognized the actor and notified his red-faced commanding officers. Danny’s not a Borat fan. He doesn’t like discomfort comedy.
8:50 – Today is St. Patrick’s Day. Time for drinking stories! Metro was arrested for drinking. He was arrested in High School for public intoxication. He got drunk as a freshman, smoked a blunt, passed out in the bathroom at a school dance. He was cuffed at barfed in the back of the cop car. He was bailed out by his mother who beat the hell out of him at home.
Shila has many bad drinking stories. She was 20, at a house party, got a little wound up, smoked some weed and that’s when someone yelled that the cops were coming to bust the party. She hid under the bed; the cops came upstairs, yelled at her to come out. She pretended she didn’t hear them. That got them pissed, so the threw the bed over. While going down the stairs she tripped and fell down the stairs.
Matt calls in to say he was drinking the night before Thanksgiving and took a nap in his car. One of the girls he was with woke him up with a special treat, but she wasn’t a good looking girl. Ewww.
Richie was drinking with his friend in Wildwood, going to every bar and drinking everything. His friend was starting to feel sick. They walked down the street, started talking to some girls, when his friend turned his white pants brown.
Danny would put vodka in his Gatorade bottle when working out. Danny took a chug while on the treadmill, fell, and the treadmill skinned his ear as he was down.

Mayor Nutter yesterday confirmed that his budget plan will include a temporary two-year increase in the property tax. Nutter said residents would see a 19 percent increase above current rates for the fiscal year that starts July 1, then rates would lower to 14.5 percent over current rates in the fiscal year that starts in July 2010.
A popular junior high school music teacher was busted after he carried out an inappropriate relationship with his 14-year-old student, said investigators. Brian Miller, 28, taught at Upper Perkiomen Middle School in East Greenville, Pa. for six years. The music teacher and drama coach was put on suspension on March 5 after the school district learned of the allegations, said district officials. He is currently on unpaid leave. Danny thinks castration by Rotweiler is the proper punishment.
Lisa Maitlin and her family booked a cruise to sail in February. They'd been on Royal Caribbean before. She asked her parents and brother's family to join them. Arriving at Port Liberty and paying the non-refundable $177 parking fee, Maitlin was greeted by the purser. "'Oh and when are you due?'" Maitlin said the purser asked. "I thought she was being pleasantly conversational. I answered: April 7." Maitlin was stunned when told she couldn't board the ship. Danny says they have every right to deny her. Flying after 8 months was a bad idea too. If your water breaks on a ship who’s going to notice? She’ll end up getting her money and a free cruise later because the cruise line doesn’t want to look bad.
A Yonkers, N.Y., woman said Monday her response to being shot in the stomach with an 30-inch-long arrow was to scream. Denise Delgado-Brown, 51, was in stable condition at a hospital after doctors removed the black arrow with yellow feathers that struck her Sunday afternoon while she was getting out of her car in New York City's Riverdale neighborhood after church. Suspects include Ted Nugent and Robin Hood.
9:31 – Mick Mars from Mötley Crüe is on the show. Danny knows Tommy, Nikki, and Vince well. He’s met Mick, but they don’t know each other as well. Years ago Mick put an ad in a local paper saying that a ‘loud, rude, aggressive guitar player’ was available. It worked wonders. Danny loves The Dirt, the Mötley Crüe autobiography. He won’t be read Bret Michael’s tell-all. Mick can’t back Danny up on the rumor that Mötley Crüe has played to the most people of any rock band in history. The most they ever played for at once was 50, so maybe AC/DC has played for more. The Crüe will be performing all of Dr. Feelgood at Crüefest 2, the first half of their set. Mick has 5 inches smaller from the time he was 18 because of ankylosing spondylitis. He doesn’t get to run around on stage anymore, Nikki and Vince can dance on stage. Standing still makes him look bad ass enough. The umlaut’s in Mötley Crüe were Nikki’s idea. The fans in America thought they were European, the fans in Europe knew they were American because they were in the wrong places.
Listen to the interview here -
9:55 – Danny and Spike used to work out together, but not Danny is using Metro’s girlfriend as a personal trainer. Danny wants to have her come out to the ring with him at the TNA Lockdown event.
10:01 – Danny’s Final Thought: You feel good, you’re in good shape, everything seems like it’s just kicking ass. But when you’ve reached an age where Ashlyn Brooke has to remind you that you made out with her in front of your girlfriend and ex-wife at the same time because you don’t remember. Then Steven Adler of Guns n’ Rose has to remind you that you did a bunch of blow at a night club that you don’t remember. Then Mick Mars says he played your play your 17th birthday and Tommy Lee played my 16th birthday. I’ve just lived too long. I’m done. If you see me riding on a little scooter today it’s okay if you aim for me.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/16/09
6:01 – Danny’s cleared up the Celebrity Championship Wrestling/TNA Wrestling issue. CCW is giving him a one-time deal to wrestle at TNA Lockdown in April. Danny walked to work with Metro’s girlfriend Amie this morning; she’s studying to become a personal trainer and helping Danny get big for the match. Metro is calling Danny’s girlfriend Amy to make plans with her. Could there be some swapping going on now? Danny really liked the way Metro’s Amie worked him out this morning. Then they had a nice, close ride to the station on Danny’s motorcycle. She’ll be working him out every day until the match, so be prepared for more developments.
6:25 – Sports: Sixers beat the Heat 85-77, Flyers lost to the Rangers 4-1, Villanova and Temple NCAA’s, Former Eagles reciever Dante Stallworth killed a man with his car in Florida.
6:27 – When he was younger Metro was brought in on charges of attempted vehicular manslaughter. On his drive to school he swerved at a kid that would stand on the side of the road every day on the way to school. The kid didn’t know they were just playing and the cops showed up to school. When he was younger Danny was hit in the face by the side view mirror on a passenger bus. Ouch.
6:29 – Danny was a hit at Sunday’s St. Patrick’s Day parade. He was mobbed on the parade route. Danny is at over 4,000 people in Shaking Bonaduce. Danny had a great time with Bob Kelly during their interview on the parade route, but Bob didn’t do the shot with Danny though. He went to extreme lengths to set it up. Monahan calls in to say that the pub he was at went nuts when Danny did the shot. Mike called in to say he got the new t-shirt, loves it, but the print is off and he’s afraid to wear it. Danny is proud of the new shirt; look for it on his appearances on
The Smoking Gun Presents: World's Dumbest Criminals on TruTV.
6:50 – Danny is digging Gina Carano, a smokin’ hot girl who kicks ass in MMA and is featured in the new issue of Maxim magazine. Danny wants to know if other men would date a girl who could kick their ass. Metro says no, it starts out with being told to take out the trash and would lead to submission holds. Butch calls to say ‘hell yeah.’ She’d be able to keep him in line. Alex says yes, and they wouldn’t get into fights because she’s so hot. Travis would absolutely date her, it’s a turn on. Holly calls to say that most men flinch when she comes at them with a punch. She doesn’t want to have to wait for a man to take of her. Also, what kind of man would push an MMA champion to cross the line and get into fisticuffs? Ray dated a bodybuilder, ran his mouth in a fight and she cracked him in the jaw. It scared him. Danny is turned on. Danny’s tip for fighting a body builder? They have no dexterity and they’re usually sore from working out, somewhere on their body. Danny wouldn’t fight Gina, but he’d wrestler her in anything around. Pie, mud, grease. Anything.

Dozens of firefighters responded to a fire at a Coatesville home Monday. Nearly 60 firefighters worked for about an hour before getting the blaze under control. No injuries were reported. The incident is not believed to be connected to recent arsons in the Coatesville area, but the cause of the fire is still under investigation. Why are there copycat fires there? Trends start in New York, Paris, and London. Not Coatesville.
Vice President Joe Biden's 91-year-old mother has been hospitalized after a fall at her Delaware home.

A man said he killed his girlfriend in an argument over beer and then tried to have sex with her corpse, according to an arrest warrant police released Thursday. Robert Conde, 41, of Fort Lauderdale was arrested Wednesday and charged with one count of first-degree murder in the death of Ruth Ann Trueblood, police spokeswoman Detective Yvette Martinez said. According to the arrest report: Conde told police he and Trueblood were drinking together outdoors when she told him he couldn't have more beer. He told police he got upset and beat her up, saying she was on her back defenseless as he punched her several times in the face until he knew she was dead. He finally got his ‘cold one.’
The mysterious mewing in Vickie Mendenhall's home started about the time she bought a used couch for $27. After days of searching for the source of the noise, she found a very hungry calico cat living in her sofa. That is the laziest cat in the world.
#10 – Know your sports teams and keep Sunday holy for them. Danny knows his teams, likes some players, but unless it’s a big game, he’s okay with putting sex above football. Metro agrees if it’s before week 8. Shila thinks they’re nuts. Danny would Tivo sex if he could. Bill calls in to say that he watches up to half time, tape at halftime and then watch the rest of the game without commercials. Groundbreaking! Ted says that if you’re having sex in the car on Sunday, just listen to Eagles Radio on 94WYSP.
# 9 – Thall shalt know what thow are doing. Stopping for directions while driving and getting lost. Danny used to stop for directions before GPS. He says it’s okay to ask directions, but be sure you know who you’re getting directions from.
Tim calls so say that raising a hand to a woman and using the phrase ‘mamby pamby’ should both be outlawed.
#8 - Thou shalt not make wrongful use of crying. Weddings, and funerals are off limits for tears, but watering after being hit with pepper spray is okay. Danny’s a crier and thinks that a man cry as long as a woman thinks it’s cutes. Danny also used the phrase ‘get under the blankies’ when his girlfriend was cold. Shila thinks that men should pick and choose their crying moments.
Chris calls in to say that the first time he had sex with his current girlfriend she had a Dawkins jersey on and he wouldn’t let her take it off. Sweet! He also wants to add that nailing a friend’s ex without permission to the list, similar to #5. There are circumstances where Danny would break that rule. If a friend of Danny’s broke up with Megan Fox he’d be all over that.
Danny walked in on his friend Ray with his ex when he was younger. If catching them in the act wasn’t traumatic enough, his friend was hung like Mr. Ed, adding insult to injury.
10. Know your sports teams and keep Sunday holy for them.
9. Thou shall know what thou art doing.
8. Thou shall not make wrongful use of crying.
7. Thou shall know thy apartment and keep it holy.
6. Thou shall know thy man-skills.
5. Thou shall not commit adultery with your bro’s lady.
4. Thou shall not covet thy bro’s s***.
3. Thou shall know when to bear false witness.
2. Have no false hos before bros.
1. Honor thy bro.
8:00 – Derrick calls in to say he caught one of his friends getting a little too comfortable with his ex fiancé. In the end he missed the friend more than the girl.

Lawyers and baliffs broke up the confrontation. Hogan was in court to request access to frozen marital accounts.

A lawyer for Lindsay Lohan is hoping to make nice with a Beverly Hills judge Monday and clear up the headline-grabbing warrant for the starlet's arrest. "[Lindsay] won't be in court with me," lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley told the Daily News, saying that the mysterious warrant resulted from a "misunderstanding." "Ms. Lohan has been in compliance with all the terms and conditions of her probation and all orders of the court," Holley said.
Lohan, 22, took her party bus for a 1:45am visit to none other than Jack Nicholson’s Mulholland Drive pad. Witnesses said she repeatedly buzzed the intercom, calling out: “Jack, open the gate.” At first, it seemed the 71-year-old was going to be a sensible pensioner and leave her on the pavement, but just as the starlet was growing agitated – “Here’s Johnny!” We are not sure if the wild child or the wild OAP gave up first, but a legless Linds emerged three hours later. As long as the girl isn’t cheating, Danny digs a nutty girl.

10:04 – Danny’s Final Thought: I feel good and healthy, and strong, but I kind of feel old today though, I’ll tell you why. Apparently large men in diapers equal ratings. Surprise! For some reason I thought hot chicks in nothing equaled ratings. Kids today!

6:02 – Danny can’t always tell his bedazzled jeans apart in the dark. While getting ready this morning he was looking for something in a pair of jeans he wore earlier in the week he was awfully confused. Danny also realized that he doesn’t help out around the house as much as he thought he did. The hallway is lined with empty vodka bottles which are Danny’s responsibility to recycle.
Danny has one rule on the radio: put on a happy morning show face. Metro was sick yesterday and Danny wanted to make him feel better, even if he looked sad. Shila and Metro’s girlfriend Amy went out to dinner last night and after the meal they went back to Metro’s apartment to watch him sleep. That freaked him out when he learned about it. He wasn’t wearing Spider-Man pajamas, but that wouldn’t have surprised Danny.
6:11 – Steve calls in to say that sometimes he gets lost in Danny’s stories. Steve forgets what Danny talks about it and relates it to a weird acid trip, but eventually Danny ties it all together.

A 13-year-old boy from Drexel Hill, Pa. is in police custody on charges that he was planning to take over his school and shoot some of his classmates. But the boy's father says his son brought the guns to school to sell them, not to use them. Upper Darby police say the school was tipped off by a patient at a mental health facility that the student was planning some type of attack and that he had guns. Zero tolerance means that even a pencil could be a weapon. Danny’s daughter was sent home because of a hair pin. Three strikes is a good rule of thumb.
The acting head of the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry was charged with public drunkenness after an incident at a Harrisburg hotel. Police issued a summary citation to Sandi Vito after a dispute Wednesday night over whether she would take a taxi home from the Harrisburg Hilton.

Vito issued a statement Thursday apologizing to the public, her agency and Gov. Ed Rendell. Danny used to carry cards with ‘Sorry, I was drunk’ to hand out the day after and save time.
If Friday the 13th is unlucky, then 2009 is an unusually unlucky year. This week's Friday the 13th is one of three to endure this year. The first came last month. The next is in November. Such a rare triple-threat occurs only once every 11 years. Here are five of our favorite Friday-the-13th facts:
1. Fear of Friday the 13th - one of the most popular myths in science - is called paraskavedekatriaphobia as well as friggatriskaidekaphobia. Triskaidekaphobia is fear of the number 13.
2. Many hospitals have no room 13, while some tall buildings skip the 13th floor and some airline terminals omit Gate 13.
3. President Franklin D. Roosevelt would not travel on the 13th day of any month and would never host 13 guests at a meal. Napoleon and President Herbert Hoover were also triskaidekaphobic, with an abnormal fear of the number 13.
4. Mark Twain once was the 13th guest at a dinner party. A friend warned him not to go. "It was bad luck," Twain later told the friend. "They only had food for 12." Superstitious diners in Paris can hire a quatorzieme, or professional 14th guest.
5. The number 13 suffers from its position after 12, according to numerologists who consider the latter to be a complete number - 12 months in a year, 12 signs of the zodiac, 12 gods of Olympus, 12 labors of Hercules, 12 tribes of Israel, 12 apostles of Jesus, 12 days of Christmas and 12 eggs in a dozen.
Danny points out that the slaughter of the Knights Templar happened on Friday the 13th, which started the legend.
7:35 – Dane Cook is on the show right now. MySpace and cutting edge technology really helped Dane get his name out there.

7:47 – Danny is preparing to take a fire extinguisher to the face. He doesn’t need safety goggles, he’s just going to wear sunglasses. The idea of the stunt came from a news story in which a man shot his brother in the face with a fire extinguisher because he refused to put out his cigarette. So Danny will light up a cigarette and Metro will unload from seven feet away.
Yellow powder is shot all over Danny. His cigarette is still working, but inhaling was a bad idea. He runs out of the studio because either he's in pain or he's going to throw up. Maybe both.
8:07 – Many people are not happy with the show right now. The station engineers were furious about a cigarette in the studio, but that went out the window when the fire extinguisher went off. Many calls came in saying the unit they use has awful chemicals. Mike calls in to say it was just baking soda. Danny reads the warning on the label, doesn’t sound like it’s too safe. Jerry in on the phone to say he called in earlier in the week to make sure that it was a foam fire extinguisher and not a powder one because of the damage it could do to the broadcasting equipment. Gibbons was the one who bought it. He went to Home Depot and was assisted by the clerk who led him to the dry chemical extinguisher. Danny thinks it’s a conspiracy and Gibbons is after his job. Everyone in the studio has headaches now.
8:13 – Pat calls to say it’s not deadly and to be careful vacuuming because the dust could set off smoke alarms. Danny can’t turn a dare down.

Stern and doctors Sandeep Kapoor and Khristine Eroshevich were each charged with three felony counts of conspiracy and several other charges of fraudulent prescriptions. That’s called ‘Doctor Shopping.’ As a recovering addict Danny can’t figure out how the movie stars get pharmacies to fill these prescriptions. He knew a guy who was taking 55 pain pills a day at one point.
Jon Stewart hammered Jim Cramer and his network, CNBC, in their anticipated face-off on "The Daily Show," repeatedly chastising the "Mad Money" host for putting entertainment above journalism. "I understand that you want to make finance entertaining, but it's not a ... game," Stewart told Cramer, adding in an expletive during the show's Thursday taping. The episode was scheduled to air at 11 p.m. EDT on Comedy Central. Danny thinks that Cramer is just trying to be entertaining to show the viewers how the stock market works. If Cramer was flawless he’d be a billionaire.
8:36 – Howie Mandel is on the line. There’s a new midday version of Deal or No Deal on NBC10. Howie blew his sinuses after years of doing the rubber glove on his head and inflated it with his nose. One night on stage he did it and it felt like a knife in his eye and was diagnosed with a perforated sinus. The Emergency Room doctors were ponderous as to how he did it. Howie cut way back on it, but hasn’t eliminated it. Danny turned down the Deal or No Deal gig three times, but his wife finally got him to take it. Howie has a new show, Howie Do It, that’s on NBC10 tonight. Danny ran into Howie while he was taping a segment for the show. Howie duped Danny into picking up trash at Universal Studios for a few minutes until it dawned on him what was going on. The show is Howie’s true love.

Danny is also a big fan of Bobby’s World, Howie breaks into character to put a smile on Danny’s face.

The indictment, handed up Tuesday in Marshall County, charges 43-year-old Tammy Lynn Smith with 10 counts of child abuse and 10 counts of malicious assault.

The turn-around in his condition was ironically caused by the bite of a Recluse spider that put him in a Manteca hospital for five days.

Now Hulk Hogan’s Celebrity Championship Wrestling is trying to enforce their exclusivity clause. The reason Danny is on the radio is because his TV work doesn’t pay the bills. Danny thinks the Executive Producer Jason Hervey to let him out for one fight and there are other ways around the clause. Danny wants to do the match because it’s in Philly. He’s willing to bleed and get sued for this show.
9:55 – Danny is half Irish, so look for him on his Harley at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Sunday.
10:04 – Danny’s Final Thought: Screen Gems owns my life, Columbia owns my likeness, CCW seems to own my wrestling career. So this to leaves me little choice ladies and gentlemen, I am going to go home and look at my own love statue because I believe I still own the rights to it.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/12/09
6:01 – Danny is pointing at Shila while introducing her at the beginning of the show, even though you can’t see it. Last night Danny was going over the stories for the next episode of World's Dumbest Partiers for TruTV. One of the world’s stupidest partiers was celebrating the victory in an Eagles/Giants game. A big fat Giants fan threw such a fit that he gave himself a heart attack, however he was resuscitated. So the Eagles killed a man.
6:12 – Is there’s anything Danny hasn’t been addicted to? During stints in rehab for drugs he was told that sex was his primary addiction, he spent more time an energy getting sex than getting high. At first Danny saw it as a badge of honor, being manlier, but after learning about it he realized that he had a lot to lose. It wasn’t just sex addiction it was sex and love addiction. There were many gay men in the group and in most cases the trouble started over a lover they couldn’t get over. Shila wants to attend a meeting. Danny will attend the meeting with her and they can play ex-lovers who can’t stay apart just to have fun.

6:54 – Danny’s name has ended up on a new list. The Chicago Tribune put together a list of the top red heads. Danny goes down the list. How is Ron Howard higher on the list than he is? He’s bald. Mickey Rooney? Kathy Griffin? This is not a list based on talent obviously. Last on the list is Carrot Top. Danny’s not on the list? How is that possible? Danny had a run in with him at a pool in Las Vegas not too long ago. Carrot Top is buff, but he’s certain the dude has shoulder implants to make them look bigger. Danny thinks that if your child gives you one ounce of suspsension needs a parent to take action, whether it’s drugs or violence.
7:07 – News with Shila:
A 13-year-old boy from Drexel Hill, Pa. is in police custody on charges that he was planning to take over his school and shoot some of his classmates. Upper Darby police say the school was tipped off by a patient at a mental health facility that the student was planning some type of attack and that he had guns. Police superintendent Michael Chitwood says the student was pulled out of class on Tuesday at St. Andrew the Apostle School on School Lane, and that’s when police were called: Danny’s sole act of terrorism as a kid was to get his class to chase him, throw down jacks; however that plan didn’t work out. It didn’t slow down his classmates. Career avoided: Ninja.
A man accused of driving drunk said Pennsylvania courts have no jurisdiction over him because he's his own country.

Witmer, who represented himself, said he believes police lack jurisdiction to pull him over. As he said in court: "I live inside myself, not in Pennsylvania." He said there is no victim in the crime and asked to go to trial.

He declined to elaborate as he stood outside his family's home in Wasilla, about 40 miles north of Anchorage
7:33 – Who Would Win in a Fight: Spider-Man vs. Batman?
This will be a great fight. Metro is a Spider-Man freak. Danny’s going for Batman. Metro thinks that Batman is just a dude in a suit; Spider-Man can shoot webs and crawl on walls. Shila takes Batman too. Shila thinks that Batman’s training, gadgets, money, a dirty fighter, and if Mary Jane needs Spider-Man mid-fight he’ll go a runnin’ to save her. Danny takes Batman because in The Dark Knight he has a sweet suit of armor and has enough ingenuity to create something that would render Spider-Man’s webbing useless.
Jerry goes with Spider-Man because the Spidey Sense would prevent any attack by Batman. Jim agrees with Shila and Danny, taking Batman because of his anger issues. Lunch calls to say Spider-Man would win because of strength, and impact webbing is a force to be reckoned with. Leigh takes Spider-Man because he has superpowers and Batman is just a human in armor. Dan takes Spidey because his kid is obsessed with him.
7:52 – Bill takes Spider-Man because Batman is only as good as his utility belt. Billy goes with Batman because Spider-Man is a do-gooder, but Batman fights crime because he has a psychological problem. Andy goes with Spider-Man, even though Shila sounds hot talking about superheroes. Danny always liked superheroes that could fly and then it was costumes, that’s why he was a Green Lantern fan as a kid. Mystery Man goes with Spider-Man because he can take an ass whipping and Batman couldn’t survive a big fall. Shila points out that Batman can glide with his cape. Brian is on Spider-Man’s side and thinks Batman’s a wimp. Batman takes 57% of the text vote, but Spider-Man won on the phones 10-5.

It's at times self-deprecating.” Should be lots of sex in this book!
8:40 – Danny is up to 1817 in the 1 million person goal for Shaking Bonaduce. Sometimes he runs out of cards, but if you see Danny on the street don’t be afraid to come up to him and ask for your card. What’s Danny’s hand going to look like after 1 million handshakes?
8:54 – Another reason Danny is doing Shaking Bonaduce is to let people know that he’s in Philadelphia for Philadelphia. The show isn’t beamed in by satellite. Nikki calls in; she works at a pet store. Ferrets are the hot pet of 2009. Maybe she’s been drinking early in the morning. Sue called in to ask Danny about the movie ‘Come On Get Happy,’ a movie about life on the Partridge Family. It was taken from his book Random Acts of Badness, but there was more to his whole life than the Partridge Family years. Charlie calls to say that at the pace he’s going Shaking Bonaduce would take hundreds of years. Danny likes that because it means he’d have a job after he dies.

A Baghdad court sentenced an Iraqi reporter who hurled his shoes at former U.S. President George W. Bush to three years in prison on Thursday, a verdict critics said was politically motivated. 3 years? 20 years wouldn’t be enough.

A one-eyed, Toronto-based documentary filmmaker is preparing to work with a video camera concealed inside his prosthetic eye, hoping to secretly record people for a project commenting on the global spread of surveillance cameras. Rob Spence, 36, who grew up in Belleville, lost his vision in one eye at the age of 11 when a shotgun he was using backfired. The damaged eye was removed three years ago. Spence is in the final stages of developing a camera to turn his handicap into an advantage. In the land of the blind the one eyed man shall be king!
9:31 – Maureen McCormick who played Marcia on the Brady Bunch. Danny always used the Brady Bunch as the level to live up to because the kids always came across so squeaky clean after the show went off the air. Her naughty behavior was all news to Danny. Her admission that she did cocaine was shocking, trading sex for drugs knocked him over. She started around the age of 19 or 20 and it lasted 5 years. She was addicted with her first line and enough bad things added up and made her realize she needed to stop. Danny is sad that he missed the chance to trade sex for drugs with Maureen. She thinks he’s still hunky. Danny’s not surprised Maureen is getting calls to start up her own talk show.
Maureen was dating a guy who took her to a drug dealer’s house, that’s where she tried it for the first time, and her addictive personality took over. Maureen makes an appearance on this weekend’s celebrity roast for Larry the Cable Guy. She had a lot of fun doing it. She shed some pounds on Celebrity Fit Club too. Check out her book Here's the Story: Surviving Marcia Brady and Finding My True Voice. Danny wants to make a porn with Maureen, but first he has to take care of his butt acne.
9:59 – Danny thinks that Spike’s cat tattoo is not manly. Spike does admit it resembled Hello Kitty! Danny’s daughter has outgrown Spike.
10:01 – Danny’s Final Thought: Maureen McCormick was on the show today and agreed that for a million dollars there will be a Danny Partridge/Marcia Brady porno on the market. I would just like to say that this is an oral agreement. I would accept more money than the million, but my half of the million would be my minimum. But if you’re one of them freaked out guys that never got over the Partridge Family and the Brady Bunch: One million Marcias, that’s all I’m sayin’, and I’m in. I might even throw in Mary Ann from Gilligan’s Island just to make it really weird.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/11/09
6:03 – Shila is too perky in the morning for Danny. She’s ready for food and a nap by 10 though. Danny likes radio stunts, but detests practical jokes. Danny would never lie about being sick on the air. He was going to walk down the hall on his hands at the end of the show yesterday, but the pneumonia has diminished his lung capacity which would make it difficult. He feels much better today though. Danny has to get better and fast. Kurt Angle was on the show earlier in the month to promote TNA’s Lockdown PPV at the Liacorus Center on April 19th at the Liacouras Center. Danny got a letter from TNA’s Ross Forman inviting Danny to participate in a cage match at the event. Kevin Nash, Mick Foley, or Sting. Danny doesn’t have to wrestle, he just have to take a beating.
6:20 – Adam calls in to suggest that Danny take on Abyss from TNA. That’s a possibility. Danny needs to get rid of the pneumonia and a full on wrestling freak to train him.
6:35 – Carmen calls to say that Danny should take on The Dudley Brothers with a little help from Metro. Not likely.
6:53 – Dennis calls in to say that professional wrestling message boards are on fire with discussion about Danny wrestling at TNA Lockdown and comparing him to David Arquette’s time with WCW. Danny wants to deliver and separate himself from the comparisons. Blood and sweat will separate him from the other goofballs and if he does it right he wants and apology. The internet has also reported that there will be a contract signing in signing on March 20th.

Philadelphia police are looking for a man who may have been responsible for four groping incidents involving teenage girls. This could be the gateway to something worse.
Jon Kenoyer, a retired mailman who died March 6 at his home in Santee, Calif., was a selfless type. He wanted only for his body to be donated to a medical research firm in Allentown, Pa., to help cure Alzheimer's, his family said. So there was plenty of surprise to go around yesterday morning when Kenoyer's body showed up at Pets Plus USA, in Northeast Philadelphia, where employees were awaiting the arrival of some tropical fish. "At first, I was completely shocked when I got the phone call," Kenoyer's widow, Mary, said during a phone interview last night. "Then I started laughing a little when I hung up the phone. Jon was a practical joker, and I thought, 'He's pulling the last joke on us.' "Danny’s never had his luggage lost, but losing grandpa would be worse.
A woman who bit off her boyfriend's tongue during a drunken birthday kiss has been told she faces jail. Tracy Davies, 40, bit off a third of Mark Coghill's tongue after telling him "you never give me smoochy kisses any more". Each had drunk a bottle of vodka before the attack at his flat in Jesmond, Newcastle, in October. Davies was convicted of grievous bodily harm but cleared of the same charge with intent. Ouch.
7:28 – Whoremopolitan! Danny goes through a recent issue of a women’s magazine to help men figure out what they’re thinking. Ben Franklin said ‘Use what they’ve read to get them in bed.’ One of Danny’s favorites. Today’s article is ‘His Biggest Sex Secrets.’
1. He worries about how good he is in bed. Danny doesn’t think this is a secret, it’s what every man is thinking, Shila doesn’t want to hear a guy ask about her the size of other men she’s been with. Metro downplays his ability so he lowers expectations.
2. There is no such thing as a mediocre orgasm for a man. Danny’s been solo for some of his best.
3. Even men need foreplay. Danny makes sure his girl is up one before regular sex begins. No man wants to be ‘Ok’ at anything. Crying has gotten Danny laid every time he’s shed a tear. For women it’s taking time and going slow. Foreplay for a man is going fast and hard.
7:47 – Joe calls in to say that he can fake an orgasm. He uses a condom and Viagra he’s ‘jumped the gun’ and faked it later as to not tip off the girl that he was too quick. Danny growls during sex. Collette calls in to say that not everyone is the same and opening a discussion would take the guess work out of the game. Danny’s done that and when men ask women what they want they panic and it ruins the moment. Either they’re embarrassed to tell or inexperienced. Danny dated a girl with herpes for a while and as time went on after using condoms all the time Danny couldn’t reach the endzone so he’d jump up and run to the bathroom pretending that he scored 6 points.
4. No, he really doesn’t want a threesome. WRONG! It might be a bad idea in hindsight, but no man would pass that up.
5. He kinda hates forced kinkiness. Danny doesn’t like forced anything.
6. Can’t be said on the air
7. He’s dying for you to touch his ass. Myth! Danny does not like that.
8. The ‘boys’ are tougher than they appear. Shila agrees, Danny doesn’t. He’s got a sensitive pair.
9. He’s thinking about someone else during sex. Shila finds that disappointing, danny’s done it often. It’s better to think about someone else when you’re with the one you love than to think about the one that loved you while you’re with someone else.

If you want a good time, vote for "American Idol." The Fox TV show—which has 13 finalists this season instead of the usual dozen—had to choose another voting line besides 1-866-IDOLS-13 because that number is owned by a phone sex operation, promising to connect listeners to a "nasty girl" for up to $3. It’s always porn! No one ever gets a Disney hotline.
The makers of television polygamy drama "Big Love" apologized on Tuesday for any offense to Mormons in a depiction of a sacred ritual but made clear it would air the controversial episode as planned. The HBO network's program about a non-Mormon polygamous family has stirred up a hornet's nest of complaints over an episode to be broadcast on Sunday showing its version of an endowment ceremony within a Mormon temple. It is thought to be the first time the ritual, in which participants move to a higher level of understanding of their religion, will be shown on TV. The Mormons are a tight knit group that acts together.
Will Smith gave Ralph Macchio quite the surprise recently, calling the Karate Kid star out of the blue to talk about his remake of the 1984 film. Smith's a producer on the updated kickfest, and his son Jaden is set to star. "It was very cool," Macchio tells E! News. "He called and said, 'Would you mind getting on the phone with my son?' I felt like Yoda to young Skywalker." Ralph has no option but to say yes, it was just a courtesy call to shut him up. What’s Ralph doing now? Two episodes of Ugly Betty in the past 4 years and traveling stage shows. Winner = Bonaduce!
Chris Brown and Rihanna are recording a duet together -- said to be a love song -- despite prosecutors charging Brown with a violent attack on his girlfriend, celebrity websites reported on Tuesday. While lawyers work behind the scenes on a possible plea deal that could allow the 19-year-old R&B singer to avoid jail time, Brown and Rihanna have been in a Los Angeles area studio working on a love song.
8:36 – Larry the Cable guy is coming on the show later today. His celebrity roast will air on Comedy Central on Sunday. Lisa Lampanelli and Maureen McCormick landed some good lines. Danny’s never been roasted, but he got creamed at the Gene Simmons roast. Everyone’s fair game at these things.
8:49 – Larry the Cable Guy is on the show. Git-R-Dun started as his catch phrase when he would do commentaries for radio stations across the country for 13 years before he hit it big. His Comedy Central Roast airs this Sunday. He wanted to make sure that he had a personal connection to everyone that was on stage. Toby Keith and Jeff Foxworthy took some hard hits, Warren Sapp did too. Larry’s known Warren for a while. Warren asked for some of his Skoal when they met at a Laker’s game years ago. Everyone did well on the show, but Maureen McCormick stole the show. Danny appreciates Larry’s tenacity and the way he worked his way to the top. Larry digs the way Danny stood up for the country.

Bernard Madoff, the New York money manager accused of leading the largest Ponzi scheme in U.S. history, will plead guilty later this week to 11 criminal charges, his lawyer told a federal judge. Madoff, 70, will admit he directed a fraud that prosecutors alleged began in the 1980s. By last November, Madoff told 4,800 investors their accounts held $64.8 billion, according to court papers filed in Manhattan federal court. Prosecutors will seek forfeiture from Madoff of as much as $170 billion. Madoff, free on $10 million bail, faces 150 years in prison.
The former president of Archbishop Ryan High School faces up to 24 years in prison after pleading guilty to stealing more than $900,000 from the school and his friars order, using some of the money to pay off a former student he is accused of sexually molesting. The Rev. Charles Newman, 58, accused of taking the money from the school and his order of Franciscan Friars, entered his guilty plea on felony forgery and theft charges. He was president of the school from July 2002 to Nov. 20, 2003, when he was fired. Sentencing has been set for May 8. He stole a kid’s life, 24 years is not enough time. Could the option of marriage alleviate some of the problems the Catholic church is having?
A father’s decision to tell his 17-year-old son to get off the floor and lay down on a couch may have saved the boy from injury when a suspected drunken driver crashed into their Michigan home. Roy Rabadue tells The Saginaw News and WJRT-TV he was watching television Monday night in their home in Bay County’s Bangor Township, about 90 miles northwest of Detroit, when he decided to make cookies. He told Joseph to move, and his son complied. Shortly afterward, a pickup smashed into the home. The crash tossed their 52-inch television across the living room, landing where Joseph had been on the floor. How lucky is it having your 50” TV ruined?
Police with the New Mexico Motor Transportation Division found 1,200 pounds of pot packed in cans labeled as spinach during a stop at the Gallup port of entry. An inspector noticed that only a few of the cans were labeled and that the weight printed on the side of the can didn't match the actual weight. A closer look during last Friday's bust revealed the canned drugs.
A wink, a smile or a raised eyebrow could soon change the music on your iPod or start up the washing machine, thanks to a new Japanese gadget. The device looks like a normal set of headphones but is fitted with a set of infrared sensors that measure tiny movements inside the ear that result from different facial expressions. The gizmo - called the “Mimi Switch” or “Ear Switch” - is connected to a micro-computer that can control electronic devices, essentially making it a hands-free remote control for anything. Shila can’t wink, so this technological advancement is not for her.
9:37 – Mike calls in to talk about Catholic priests and marriage. One theory is that Bishops in the 4th or 5th century would die and leave their land to their family, leaving the parishioners out in the cold.
9:52 – Danny is sad to see the end of the Spectrum. He spent a lot of time there when working at Eagle 106. The final Sixers game is this Friday against the Bulls. Dane Cook will be the last comedian to perform there. Danny used to hate Michael J. Fox because of his role on Family Ties was too close to Danny Partridge.
9:59 – Danny's Final Thought: My final thought of the day is that I’m conflicted. I have gotten myself in with TNA Wrestling, I will be on a pay-per view event where I have promised to bleed profusely, but then I heard that Maureen McCormick from the Brady Bunch kicks ass on Larry the Cable Guy’s roast. Which do you suppose is worse: Having your ass kicked in a cage match or finding out a Brady’s funnier than you? Either one I’m killing myself if I lose.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/10/09
6:01 – Danny has too much to talk about this morning. He had a great dream last night where life was great. In real life Danny was having a good time with his girlfriend Amy who screamed and accused him of still having hot sauce on his fingers. Painful. He also got a scathing e-mail from his ex-wife that was extremely offensive. Danny responded by addressing her with ‘dear whining whore.’ It was a rough way to start a morning waking up to a vicious e-mail that was spreading malicious truths.
6:11 – Eric calls in to say that Rorshack from the movie Watchmen looks like Danny when he takes his mask off. Metro thought the same thing when he saw the movie over the weekend.
6:40 – Steven Adler from Guns n’ Roses is on the show. He’s been performing with his own band Adler’s Appetite which performs any of the material he performed with Guns. Steven remembers meeting Danny backstage at a club in Los Angeles, Steven was 13 and on acid and saw Danny doing coke off a table. Being sober has kept Steven working and it’s a good thing in his world. Steve was such a mess that he was afraid to walk his dog. Freebasing crack will turn you into a paranoid freak. Danny rubbed his chin raw while having a paranoid freak out and looking under the door to see if the cops knew he was on crack. There was never any photos of the day after rock parties in magazines like Hit Parader. Hangovers and being dope sick were never in the magazines. Adler’s Appetite will be at the Crocodile Rock tonight, tickets are only $14.
Steven still talks to Slash. They grew up together and had a few years where they didn’t keep contact with one another until Steven checked into rehab and had a heart to heart talk with Slash and let go of the blame he laid on Slash for getting him involved with drugs. Chip Z'Nuff is playing with Steven and gets on to say hello to Danny real quick. They partied together long ago. Enuff Z’nuff used to play the Starwood a lot; Danny has lots of great stories from there, including one of the Wilson sisters from Heart.
7:38 – Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach
Heidi calls in because her husband and her daughter don’t get along. It’s the job of a teenage girl to get along with anyone; it’s not her biological father either. She’s resentful that he’s not her real father and she talks to her blood father daily and is plotting to move in with him. Danny doesn’t think that he could get custody if she fights it in court. Danny suggests having a sit down with laws for everyone and listen to her demands. Her husband said that he doesn’t like the daughter and will never accept her though. Easy choice: Get a new husband. Either he changes his tune or he changes his address.
7:48 – Sandra calls to say that she thought the advice Danny gave Heidi was excellent. Often in a relationship it takes time for true colors to show.
Dave has an issue with his future daughter in-law. She’s 26 and accused Dave’s wife of stealing money from her purse at a barbecue. Their personal finances are fine, but his wife did have a ‘minor’ nervous breakdown. It never resulted in acting out, but was severely depressed. There is the possibility that she didn’t steal the $300, but did want attention to come to her. So there is a chance that she wanted to be talked about by the family.
Chris’s father had an altercation at his house and now he’s kicked out. It was being occupied by his father and his future ex-wife. Danny says to call a State Trooper and a locksmith; he has a right to gather his possession. The only crime would be extortion and the guilty party would be her. It would be a civil matter and he can actually still live in the house. It gets expensive to hold grudges and pay lawyers.
8:10 – Entertainment News: U2 officially announced its 2009-2010 world tour on Monday, kicking off in Barcelona on June 30 and playing its first North American date on September 12 in Chicago. The 90-100 date tour, in support of the band's "No Line on the Horizon" album, is the band's first stadium outing since their Vertigo tour in 2005-2006. U2 said they would play in the round, using a new 360 degree design that would have the band surrounded by the audience and give everyone an unobstructed view.
"Dancing With the Stars" returned to the air last night with a two-hour season premiere episode full of glitz and gaffes. This season's "stars" include Gilles Marini, Lil' Kim, Steve-O, Steve Wozniak and "The Bachelor's" ex, Melissa Rycroft. Shila loved every minute of the show, Danny didn’t watch because it’s not something men should watch.
Britney Spears had a wardrobe malfunction at her show in Tampa this week that would even have made Janet Jackson blush. “My p**** is hanging out,” Britney is heard saying at the end of one of her songs. Britney was prancing around during the performance of ‘I’m A Slave 4 U’ when she admitted the malfunction at the end of the song. What is even more amazing, Britney mimes her songs and the mic is only switched on at the end of the show.
Metallica lead singer James Hetfield was treated at Karolinksa Hospital in Stockholm for a suspected case of food poisoning. Hetfield reportedly fell ill after eating a takeout Indian meal during the weekend. He was hospitalized Sunday, but released several hours later.
Actress Rosario Dawson has revealed that her mother used to lick her whenever she misbehaved as a kid. She said that her mother Isabel licked the sides of her face in a bid to punish her, which actually worked."My mom licked me - that was her punishment. If I was a little uppity or if I didn't listen or if she wanted to get my attention, she'd lick the side of my face or under my armpit," That can be embarrassing. Danny has licked Shila and Metro as a reward though.
8:33 – Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is on the show now. Danny always wins at Trivial Pursuit because he knows Kareem’s birth name, Lew Alcindor. Kareem’s got a piece of trivia for Danny, Johnny Vander Meer’s record of two no-hitters in a row will never be broken because someone would have to throw three no-hitters to beat it. Kareem has some good memories of the Spectrum. Even thought the Lakers were swept by the Sixers in ’83, he had lots of wins in that building. The stadium doesn’t matter that much because the fans will follow the game anywhere.

The five detainees at Guantanamo Bay charged with plotting the September 11, 2001 attacks have filed a document accepting responsibility for the deaths of nearly 3,000 people and expressing pride at their accomplishment, The New York Times reported late Monday. The document, which the newspaper said may be released publicly on Tuesday, describes the five men as the "9/11 Shura Council," and says their actions were an offering to God, according to excerpts of the document read to a reporter by a government official, the report said. They’ll get their 72 virgins in heaven, they’ll all have Babylon 5 t-shirts and want to play World of Warcraft. No one said they had to be women.
Philadelphia Police are searching for two suspects in connection to a scam set up at an ATM in the city's Mayfair section. The scam has happened to elderly customers twice in recent weeks at an ATM in the 7300 block of Frankford Avenue. Police said the thieves sabotaged the ATM by installing a wire device that is designed to hold a bank card inside the machine, leaving the customer to believe the machine "ate" the card. "These people have put a trap inside the machine to capture their card, so the machine does not have their card, they just think it does," Capt. John McGinnis said. Danny’s girlfriend Amy had her identity stolen twice and Shila had her bank account drained in a scam. Not fun.
Grace Foster broke the world record in her age class during her first race after just a month of training. She's the fastest 91-year-old on the planet. She ran 60 meters in just under 27 seconds, she not only broke the record, and she shattered it by a whopping five seconds.
Two junior high teachers are accused of sexually assaulting the same 13-year-old student, after their separate relationships with him spiraled from personal conversations to the exchange of sexual text messages and phone sex, authorities said. On Friday, the Davis County Attorney's Office filed first-degree felony charges of rape and sodomy on a child against Linda R. Nef, 46, and Valynne Bowers, 39. Nef, a Utah studies teacher and cheerleading adviser at Bountiful Junior High, and Bowers, who teaches math, each confessed to having sex with the student, said Bountiful Police Lt. Randy Pickett. Until recently, the two teachers did not know about each other's relationship with the same boy, Pickett said. Danny wasn’t that studly as 13 year-old and he was on a hit TV show. It was common for teacher/student affairs at Danny’s High School.
9:21 – Carl calls in to talk about 72 virgins in heaven. Carl doesn’t want virgins if he blows himself up, he wants girls that know what they’re doing. Danny wants a few of each.
9:27 – Elaine calls in with a suggestion for Hometown Hotties. She’s 43 and wants a MILF category. It’s open to everyone though. Danny digs the idea of a MILF category because they’re easier to have sex with. Danny does have a younger girlfriend and 26 was far younger than he thought he’d be with after divorcing though. Gibbons comes in to say that he looked Elaine up on MySpace and she’s hot.
9:42 – Bill calls in to ask for a date with Susan Dey. Danny says she’s a complete recluse and she doesn’t look happy these days. Can Bill marry Danny? Danny isn’t hot on telling Partridge Family stories on the show; he’s got more to offer. Later this week Maureen McCormick will be on the show. Danny loved her book, she wrote about putting out for drugs! Junior has workout questions for Danny, he uses dumbbells a lot. Danny suggests switching up the workout because the body begins to get used to routines.
9:57 – Danny is challenged to walk 180 feet on his hands. Everyone in his family can walk on their hands, play pattycake really fast, and ride unicycles. Danny would be happy to do it, but he want to make sure there’s video and doing it at the end of the show wouldn’t be good for the show.
10:02 – Danny’s Final Thought: Whether you’re 27 year-old Brintey Spears, 43 year-old Elaine from New Jersey, or 91 year-old Grace Foster there’s someone on this show willing to bone you.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/09/09
6:02 – Danny has to fix his clock for Daylight Savings Time. Shila is feeling the effects of Springing Forward. She’s feeling ‘wisdom tooth’ sick, her glands are swollen because her teeth are bothering her. Danny can’t shake his pneumonia, but he hasn’t been able to work out and wants to drop some weight before his TNA cage match. Danny’s plan is to bleed on the Pay Per View special, there has to be some technical education about how to use the razor to cut himself in the ring. Wrestling, boxing, and singing, three skills Danny does not possess but has been able to make money doing.
6:12 – Danny got into a huge argument with his girlfriend Amy in Caesars Palace in Atlantic City. He wanted to play poker, she wanted to play slots, but didn’t want to be out of Danny’s sight. Danny goes on a quest to find a bathroom which was not hard to find when she called him on his cell-phone in hysterics. Everything calmed down, but Amy didn’t realize how much of Danny’s money she was losing at the tables. The argument lead to Amy saying that she didn’t care about money, which flipped a switch in Danny who threw all his chips in the air and walked away, turning back to see her on her knees gathering the chips on the floor. There’s more.
6:26 – The fight followed them back home. They didn’t speak much on the trip back from Atlantic City. When they got home they were yelling at each other again. Danny screamed ‘And I’m tired of all this!’ and picked up the closest thing to him, which was a used steak knife. It’s not a large apartment that they share. Danny threw the knife at the front door and right after that there’s a knock at the front door. Knives with wooden handles shouldn’t stick in wood, but it was a little crazy to throw knives. The building security guard tells them about the noise complaints. There have been complaints about them other times. After the guard left Danny gave her his ATM card, all the cash in his pocket and told her to get a hotel room and book a flight back to her mother’s place in California. He was surprised she went. That’s not supposed to happen! She left and wouldn’t return calls.
6:41 – Danny calls Amy on the air and she picks up. She does say that the knife wasn’t thrown at her, but it was startling. Why isn’t she in California yet? She was waiting for Danny to cool off. She’s back at the apartment now, what’s next? Danny has taught Amy how to fight, if you’re around Danny you have to toughen up. Maybe something is wrong with Amy because no one else on earth wants to hang with Danny.
7:06 – Danny was trying to lose at poker all weekend during the Danny Bonaduce Poker Tournament because he couldn’t advance to the World Series of Poker round. In an effort to allow himself to get beaten he had the dealer place his cards face up. That didn’t work. Danny had to walk away from the table have the money split up between everyone left at the table. Danny was up 15 grand that he couldn’t take home. Shaking Bonaduce is now up to 1550!

A pastor shot and killed during his Sunday sermon deflected the first of the gunman's four rounds with a Bible that disintegrated into a spray of confetti in a horrifying scene that congregants initially thought was a skit, police said. The gunman strode down the aisle of the sprawling First Baptist Church shortly after 8 a.m. and spoke briefly with the Rev. Fred Winters before pulling out a .45-caliber semiautomatic pistol and shooting at the pastor, Illinois State Police Director Larry Trent said.
What began 60 years ago as a humble television store in this sleepy Southern capital ended Sunday as Circuit City closed its doors for good — its 567 remaining U.S. stores to be left broom clean and vacant.

The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board is spending more than $173,000 to try to improve the manners of workers at state stores. The board wants to make sure clerks are saying things like "hello," "thank you" and "come again" as people walk through the door to buy wine or liquor. The board's chief executive, Joe Conti, said it's all part of the agency's attempt to improve its image. When you go into a store to buy happiness, why does the guy selling it to you have to be happy too?
Prosecutors filed a criminal charge against a woman after police say she posted a profile of her ex-boyfriend on Craigslist under "Casual Encounters."

That's when he went online, saw the profile, and called Altoona Police.

After all the anticipation and hubbub, the weekend is coming to an end and the box office results are here: "Watchmen" (No. 1) grossed $55.7 million during its first frame, according to early estimates from Media by Numbers. That's a solid sum, to be sure, although it's certainly on the low end of most projections. "Watchmen" premiered in more theaters (3,611) than any other R-rated movie in history, and it averaged an impressive $15,413 per venue, despite a potentially problematic long running time.
It has been 5 1/2 years since Siegfried and Roy were suddenly pulled from the Las Vegas spotlight after a tiger almost killed Roy on stage. The legendary duo returned for a show last Saturday.

They were treated like royalty wherever they went, often being called the faces of Las Vegas.
Scott Hamilton was kicked off Celebrity Apprentice last night and one of the highlights was a fight between Dennis Rodman and Clint Black. Danny missed his chance to lay a beatdown on Rodman. He had a shirt that had ‘Accidents’ written across the front because the the dangerous nature of the show made is uninsurable and a clause is the release form everyone on Hulk Hogan Celebrity Championship Wrestling stated ‘accidents will happen.’
Comedian Lisa Lampanelli appeared to be unapologetic about her Brown/Rihanna zinger during Comedy Central's roast of Larry the Cable Guy.

Not on the list. Spaceballs? Wrong. Water World? Danny liked that movie, he likes pirates and wanted to sail around the world. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? No way! Flying lesbians with Dick Van Dyke. Batman and Robin? Correct!

Police were forced to shoot and kill an armed employee atop the Philadelphia Gas Works building Friday evening. The employee, identified by colleagues as Juan Delgado, was shot and killed by a 26th Police District officer on the roof of the building in North Philadelphia. Police said Delgado was threatening himself with a gun and pointed the weapon at police, forcing officers to shoot and kill him. According to co-workers, Delgado was upset because he just found out Friday that he had cancer. He was apparently acting suicidal at work. Danny used to keep a suicide pack of pills incase he was ever diagnosed with cancer or have a tragic mishap. The problem with that was that he’d break into the stash and slowly reduce the number of pills set aside to kill him.
A man already accused of keeping a collection of wild animals including a river otter and a two-toed sloth has been cited for owning an endangered ape. Pierce Onthank, the president of an oil and gas company, is charged with the illegal possession of a primate for keeping a siamang, a type of gibbon that is native to rain forests in Malaysia and Indonesia and can weigh up to 30 pounds and stand 3 feet high. The Siamang Pierce owns is named Kobi and wore a diaper. The charge against Onthank, who could face a fine of less than $500, comes a month after a Stamford woman, Charla Nash, was mauled by a 200-pound chimpanzee.
A popular doll is sporting a new look that has some parents pretty upset. Mattel comes out with a new Barbie that capitalizes on the popularity of tattoos. The "Totally Stylin' Tattoos" Barbie is part of the company's spring line. She comes with a set of tattoo stickers, which can be placed anywhere on her body. The inked Barbie is not getting praise from some and some think it's attracting kids too young that want to expose parts of body to show off tattoos. Tattoo stickers upsetting parents. Danny’s ex-wife let their daughter get her nose pierced at 13. Danny doesn’t like it. Danny didn’t collect Barbie dolls, but he did collect the Barbie Twins! Danny is a magnet for weird.
9:38 – Danny has a Christine, a mother and Dominic, her son, in the studio. Dominic wants to get into acting at the age of 11. She wants advice from Danny on how to handle his career. First up is anyplace that asks for money, managers, and agents. There are legitimate acting schools out there though.
Danny decides to give Dominic an audition; they’ll do a scene from Goodfellas. Danny is Henry Hill (Ray Liota) and Dominic is Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci). After one run they switch parts. Danny will be rooting for Dominic and thinks he’ll do well.
10:03 Danny’s Final Thought: I don’t think happily engaged couples should fight the way that Amy and I do, but we don’t fight very often. But you think that if I throw a knife and it sticks in the freakin’ wall the girl would get the point! But I don’t recommend it.
Danny Bonaduce Show 3/06/09
6:03 – Danny took a return trip to the hospital last night. Danny saw an article on AOL about ’10 Happiest Stories That Made Us Smile’ this morning and wanted to talk about it on the air and see how long it took the show to wreck them. Time to wreck your good time.
First up is a story about a 4-year-old boy has won the use of an uninhabited tropical island, with white sand beaches and clear turquoise waters, in a Taiwan lottery aimed at boosting spending during an economic downturn. Mick Jagger should be partying on that island!
The daughters of a New York man who needed a kidney posted a plea on Craigslist, and Dawn Verdick, shown, answered. She had the same rare blood type as Daniel Flood, who was born with only one kidney that became damaged over the years due to high blood pressure. The December surgeries were successful, and the man's daughters launched a Web site in February to match potential living kidney donors and recipients. The found three people who have a rare blood type and a liver disease. That’s going to lead to three dead guys and not one.
A 72-year-old Indiana man whose bushy eyebrows have probably raised more than a few eyebrows collected $1,600 for charity on Jan. 13 by letting people pay to shave the wiry hairs off his face. "My wife says I look 20 years younger," Si Burgher said. The money will go toward polio eradication in developing countries. Polio already has a cure. Jonas Salk is sulking.
The black spot behind the heart in Danny’s x-ray is no big deal. The past few days it hasn’t been easy for Danny to breathe, so he got more antibiotics. He’s missed working out, what if John Cena wants to take him on later this morning?
6:13 – Danny went to speak at the High School that Gibbons graduated from yesterday. There was an assembly and usually when Danny talks to kids in school it’s about turning down drugs and working hard, but the faculty didn’t really have a plan for him. Some things change and some things stay the same in High School. The girls wear tighter, shorter clothes, but there are still the kids in the rock n’ roll shirts like Metallica and Iron Maiden. He also got a great tour of Camden! ‘Getting Rourked’ is catching on. Danny had a conversation with a guy at a bar that used the phrase when talking about sex with his wife.
6:32 – The Danny Bonaduce Poker Tournament starts today at Caesars in Atlantic City!
6:37 – Vinnie from Chima Brazilian Steakhouse, 1901 John F Kennedy Blvd., is in the studio to talk about his restaurant. Danny had a great time there and loved all the meat that he sampled. Chima is part of the Danny Bonaduce Dinner Deals this week. Danny was also impressed by the bar, all the wood was imported from Brazil. At 9:30 this morning the Dinner Deals will be available on 94WYSP.com and for reservations call 215-525-3233
6:44 – Danny had a conversation with Mickey Rourke last night about Amy.
6:52 – Danny was hoping Amy would take Mickey Rourke up on an offer to spend a weekend with him in New York City. He and Danny had a good conversation last night and they realized that Amy wouldn’t spend the time with Mickey, but they’ll all go out to dinner next week in New York.
7:05 – Danny’s feeling some effects from yesterday’s Strip for Pain with Bam Margera. Danny’s flesh is still raised from the telephone wire whip, the electronic dog collar, and the nipple clamps. Shila was pinching her nipples at home last night to see what kind of pain Danny was going through. Danny was happy that Bam was blown away by his guts. It wasn’t about seeing a naked girl; it was about following through and making an impression. What’s the next physical challenge for Danny? He has a brain and wants to use it, but isn’t afraid at pushing the physical limits. Danny has some really nutty photos coming out in the new issue of Philadelphia Magazine that involve hanging his body on a four-story ledge.
Man’s heaviest man won’t walk, but new car. He should just eat away; he’s not going to make it.
7:31 – John Cena is in the studio. He’s got a new movie, 12 Rounds, coming out soon. He’s 250 lbs. of professional wrestling greatness. 12 Rounds is an action flick, Detective Danny Baxter (Cena) discovers his girlfriend (Scott) has been kidnapped by a ex-con tied to Baxter's past, and he'll have to successfully complete 12 challenges in order to secure her safe release. Cena would like to have a movie career like The Rock, but he’s not going to walk away from the WWE. The movie has similarities to the Die Hard franchise and Speed.
Cena’s been the champ at least four times, but he says he doesn’t keep track, he just goes out and gives it his all every match. 250 matches a year all around the year doesn’t leave time for patting yourself on the back. Hulk Hogan would wrestle three matches in three different time zones in the same day at the height of his popularity. Danny was put through the ringer when he did eight weeks on Hulk Hogan’s Celebrity Championship Wrestling. Cena loves wrestling, it is taxing, but he gets to be a big kid every time he walks out of the ramp. He did have to calm down taking his energy from the ring to the movie set; he had to work more subtly on film. Cena’s aware that the number of matches and the level her performs will affect his body when he gets older, but he loves what he does and tries to take care of himself as best he can.
7:42 – Cena just got engaged, no date for the wedding just yet. It won’t be at SummerSlam though. He’s not willing to let Vince turn it into a story line. Danny wants to cut Cena open and wear him as a flesh suit; he’s good looking, in shape, famous, and very good at what he does. What’s not to like? 12 Rounds comes out March 27th…See it!!!
7:55 – Def Leppard and Poison are coming to the Susquehanna Bank Center in Camden, NJ on June 23rd. Viv Campbell from Def Lep lives next to Danny and has given him guitar lessons. He wasn’t an original member of the band, but he’s one of the best rock guitar players walking the earth.
7:58 – Lots of mail has come in to the show about Shila’s situation with her traditionalist Indian mother and her white boyfriend Sean that’s she’s kept hidden from her family for the past 2 ½ years.
One letter is from a woman who appreciates Shila’s connection with her mother and her willingness to give up happiness for her mother; however Shila’s happiness will make her mother happy too. Danny sees this situation as a Shakespearian tragedy, much like Romeo & Juliet no one wins in the end. Another e-mail asks if the close bond with her mother makes Shila cover up Sean so her mother isn’t unhappy and thinks that Shila’s mother will come around and accept him.
8:07 – She also received an e-mail from an Indian man whose family stopped talking to him because he wants to marry a Greek woman. Shila went to dinner with Amy last night and learned that Shila does have more sex than she lets on and her periods are extremely irregular. She refuses to go on birth control because her mother wouldn’t approve and worries her mother would find it while going through her purse.
8:18 – Entertainment News:
U2, working the American TV circuit hot and heavy this week, are on track to score their seventh No. 1 album on the U.S. pop chart. Data for the Billboard 200 will be published on Wednesday, but early returns from key retailers indicate "No Line On the Horizon" could sell more than 400,000 copies -- the best sales week the chart has seen since December. The band's last studio album, 2004's "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb," bowed with an impressive 840,000 copies. But its sales were boosted by the Thanksgiving holiday week. So far, "Bomb" has moved 3.2 million copies in the United States.
Chris Brown briefly appeared in court, hours after he was charged with two felonies stemming from what a police detective describes as a brutal argument between the singer and his girlfriend, Rihanna. Brown's arraignment was postponed until April 6 on charges of assault likely to cause great bodily injury and making criminal threats. The 19-year-old R&B singer remains free on $50,000 bail. Danny hasn’t lost respect for Rihanna because he’s had women of decent moral character take him back. As a parent Danny would want to shoot Christ Brown, but to save legal trouble he would push for a hard prosecution and serve the revenge cold.
The Beatles' management said Thursday that the Beatles version of the Rock Band video game will debut Sept. 9. In addition, they'll sell accompanying instruments modeled after the ones used by the band. This is the first time Rock Band has based a game on one group, according to MTV Games. It has not yet been determined what Beatles songs will be included in the edition, available for Xbox360, Playstation 3, and Wii video game consoles.
Just days before ABC is set to kick off a new season of "Dancing with the Stars," Jewel and Nancy O’Dell have pulled up lame. The singer and the "Access Hollywood" host have left the show because of injuries sustained during practice for the program. An insider says that Playboy model Holly Madison, one of a trio of Hugh Hefner's former "girlfriends" and a star of "The Girls Next Door," will replace one of the exiting stars. Jewel has fractured tibia in both legs, while O’Dell has a torn meniscus. Jewel’s snaggle tooth got hooked on her shoe strap.
"The Seinfeld" Five are reuniting on Larry David's HBO comedy "Curb Your Enthusiasm." The four stars of the hit NBC comedy -- Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards -- will appear together, playing themselves, in a multi-episode arc alongside David. The episodes are part of "Curb's" upcoming seventh season. Danny thinks that they’ll play up Michael Richards’ racist rant at a comedy show. That’s the only way to deal with it.
8:42 – Maury Povich is on the show; Danny was the first guest on the Maury Show. When he first started his competition was Donahue and Sally Jesse Raphael, now it’s a bunch of Oprah spinoffs. 24 hour cable made it possible for daytime talk show to veer away from hard hitting topics and paved the way for paternity test shows. Maury never wanted to know the test results before hand; the most shocking show was when fraternal twins had different fathers. How does Maury stay in shape at 70? Connie Chung!
9:06 – News with Shila:
Philadelphia residents showed their support and appreciation for police during 'Blue Thursday.' An all-day fundraiser was held at Geno's Steaks to benefit the family of fallen Officer John Pawlowski. Officer Pawlowski, 25, was killed in the line of duty on February 13 in the Olney section of the city. Geno's Steaks owner Joey Vento said all proceeds from 10:00 a.m. Thursday morning until 6:00 a.m. Friday morning will benefit Officer Pawlowski's family. A brick memorializing the fallen officer was added to a "Path of Honor" outside the popular South Philadelphia establishment.
Most Philadelphia School District students were happy to head home three hours early yesterday due to teacher professional-development sessions. But Phong Ho, his friends said, was sadder than ever. They said Phong, 16, a student at Philadelphia Military Academy at Elverson, was feeling down and was crying during lunch. At dismissal, 11:44 a.m., he quickly left the school on 13th Street near Diamond and headed to the SEPTA Susquehanna-Dauphin subway station, a block away, according to police. Several friends caught up to the 11th-grader and tried to cheer him up. Instead, the young man jumped from the platform onto the tracks as a train approached, police said. There’s no good angle here. The conductor is at no fault, but probably feels responsible for killing a kid.
Police arrested a 31-year-old pregnant woman who had 73 bags of heroin stashed in the waistband of her pants. Police said the woman was a passenger in a car stopped by officers on Wednesday because they believed it had illegal window tint. In the car, police said officers found six bags of heroin and a loaded gun and a stun gun in the trunk. When officers took her to police headquarters, they found 73 bags of heroin in her waistband.
Philadelphia's second annual Philly Beer Week is about to get under way. Major craft brewers from across the country will be in town. The second Beer Week begins with an "Opening Tap" ceremony featuring Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter. The opening ceremony is at 7 p.m. Friday in the lobby of the Comcast Center, Philadelphia's newest skyscraper. It features more than 30 regional breweries. If you ever see Danny wasted at a bar it’s because never quantifies the size of the drinks in his three drink limit.
9:20 - Harry Shearer, from Spinal Tap and the voice of many characters of The Simpsons is on the show. "UNWIGGED & UNPLUGGED" - an evening with Christopher Guest, Michael McKean & Harry Shearer, performing songs from Spinal Tap and A Mighty Wind at the Keswick Theater on May 14th. It’s the 25th anniversary of Spinal Tap and they’ve performed as the band and as the Foklsmen from A Mighty Wind, so for once they’re hitting the road as themselves and not as characters. Harry’s not bad at the bass, Michael McKean is good on guitar, but Christopher Guest is the best musician in the group. Harry thinks people gravitate towards comedy because they want to control how people laugh at them, so there’s a bit of trepidation about not playing a character on stage.
Monty Burns is Harry’s favorite Simpsons character because he’s pure evil. Ned Flanders and Kent Brockman are other voices he plays on the show. As long as there’s a show to work on he’ll show up and bring life to the characters.
9:40 – Danny’s at 731 in his 1 million person goal for Shaking Bonaduce. The cool thing about handing out business cards to people trying to convert to the show is that he gets to check out the great racks of girls he talks to.
9:54 – Steve calls in with poker advice for Danny, if you have a good hand bet heavy, if you have a bad hand bet heavier. What? Tim calls in from Los Angeles and wants to hear the show out there. Justin calls Danny the Obama of radio; he makes people want to listen.
9:58 – Danny’s Final Thought: Normally at peoples jobs they try to get in good for the boss, you want to stay a little later, work a little harder. Form me to really get in good with the boss I have to leave here in the next five seconds go drink and gamble and then I’m the perfect employee. Kids, study hard, stay in school, get in radio. It’s the best gig!
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/05/09
6:01 – Danny loves modern medicine; he isn’t feeling so well today. He sounds better, but his stomach is a little nauseas. The medication he’s been taking for pneumonia has been giving him nightmares. Nausea and nightmares don’t go well together. Danny had a dream that he was eating the foot of an eight year-old Danny Bonaduce. He needs to take the meds with some food in his stomach, that’s some of the issue. Shila’s had dreams about stabbing her father with knives. Metro doesn’t remember many of his dreams, but one that was recurring involved him driving a Ford Escort while wearing a red Adidas jump suit. Strip for Pain with Bam Margera should be interesting today with Danny’s nausea. He rode in to work with a bunch of torture devices in anticipation of a fun day at work.
6:35 – The Danny Bonaduce Poker Tournament is tomorrow at Caesars in Atlantic City. The winner of Danny's Tournament wins $500 and a seat in one of this year's World Series of Poker Atlantic City Circuit Events!
6:52 – Danny hasn’t called his mom since he moved back to Philly. He gets her on the line; she just came in from walking the dog. Danny introduces her to the rest of the show; as he’s fond of saying she’s as sharp as a tack and as mean as a snake. She was born in West Philadelphia and Danny was born in Broomall. Danny came back to Philly to live with her when he was 28 and got back in shape for a bit. She lives in Los Angeles now and will probably come to visit soon. She sings at a gay bar, she’s very popular there. She would love to perform in the Gayborhood.
7:09 – News with Shila:
Former first lady Barbara Bush was recovering Thursday following 2 1/2-hour heart surgery to replace her aortic valve, hospital officials said. Family spokesman Jim McGrath said Bush was already up and talking Wednesday night in intensive care only hours after undergoing the procedure at The Methodist Hospital. Danny went to a hospital in the past two years and after two rounds of tests he was told he had a heart attack, the third batch came up negative. Maybe the black spot behind his heart in the x-ray is where his soul should be.
Robert Space got into work at the Chubb Insurance Company at 6:30 a.m. Wednesday, realized the lottery ticket he was holding matched the winning numbers, and fired off a one-line e-mail to his nine co-workers who had pitched in to buy it. Space and his colleagues hit the second-largest single-ticket jackpot in New Jersey history, winning $216 million in the Mega Millions jackpot.
Steven Russo, 36, of Bethlehem Township, in the Lehigh Valley, has been charged with nine counts of endangering the welfare of children, eight counts of furnishing alcohol to minors and nine counts of corruption of minors. Teens said Russo's home was well-known as a place for teens to hang out and drink alcohol. But the parties apparently didn't gain local notoriety - or police attention - until the night of Dec. 12, when Russo's son, now 17 and a student at Freedom High School, invited over at least eight of his friends, some as young as 14. The father not only served booze to his underage guests but also regaled them with stories of his own sexual exploits, police said. He eventually moved the party down to his basement, home of the now-infamous stripper pole, where he played loud music and allegedly shouted "Get on the pole" at young girls in their cheerleader outfits.
In the 70’s there was nothing but the ‘cool dad’ who smoked pot and partied with his kids. Danny has disdain for those fathers. The police would come to Danny’s house and ask about report of abuse. When asked if he was hitting his kids he would respond ‘Not hard enough.’ Shila is ok with parents slapping disrespectful kids on the face. Danny takes a slap so he has an idea where Shila is coming from. Under certain circumstances Danny is fine with physical punishment, but there is a line that should not be crossed. Did Shila take it easy on Danny?
Rick calls in to say he agrees with Shila. His dad used physical punishment to teach him a lesson. Danny’s father hit too hard and now Danny doesn’t spank. Danny’s sister avoided having children because she was afraid that the abuse she and Danny received from their father would be passed down to her children. Rob calls in to say that he doesn’t consider a palm or an open fist is not abuse. Shila thinks that we have a generation of parents that are afraid of their children. Danny agrees. Mickey Lee is on the phone to say that it’s all dependent on age. Gary was separated from his wife and he came by to check on their teenage daughter and caught a boy in the apartment with her, when he called her out he saw red and laid a smack on her. The boy then ran away and the mother had him arrested. In front of the judge found him not guilty.
7:26 – Steve slapped his 15 year-old daughter after she mouthed off and he was arrested for abuse and it caused many problems in his life. Metro thinks that physical conflict is not the answer and there are other ways to effectively parent. Michelle calls into say that there are other ways to accomplish the goals at hand and smacking and spanking are not tolerable.
7:31 – Danny was on the air at a Top 40 station when he was told that his father passed away on Danny’s birthday. Management wanted to send him home and Danny went on the air and said that his father finally got him something he wanted on his birthday. Danny hasn’t felt bad about the issues with his father since.
7:44 – Who Would Win in a Fight: Vince Neil vs Bono?
Vince would win and Bono is soft. Danny’s seen Vince throw punches at people larger than him. Danny takes Bono because he’s from Ireland and didn’t have a cushy life growing up on the tough streets of Dublin. Shila takes Bono because he’s a better man and Vince is a punk that started fights he couldn’t finish.
Patrick calls to say that Bono would win because he came from the tough ghettos of Ireland. Mike picks Vince Neil because Bono is soft and Vince Neil’s willing to put himself in the fire. Another Mike goes with Bono and a bar room brawl he’s the guy to have on your side. Tim takes Bono because Vince is too fat to make it. Rastaman also takes Bono. Tom takes Bono because he could call the IRA! Scott goes with Vince Neil because the Irish can’t fight. Victor takes Bono because Vince did too much partying. Deb takes Bono because of his clarity of purpose and the thug in him. Bono takes 93 percent of the text votes and the phone vote 22-7.
8:08 – Entertainment News:
Guns N' Roses could be set for a summer stadium tour, according to industry insiders. Axl Rose's band could be set to take their recent 'Chinese Democracy' album on the road, reports Rolling Stone, although the publication kept the anonymity of the sources of the information. It does, however, quote Rose's manager, Irving Azoff, hinting at possible dates. "Axl has been basically quiet, keeping out of the limelight for almost 15 years," he said. "People think they know him but they only really only know what has been said about him by questionable people. Danny thinks that Axl is a genius, but insane. There are different levels of bipolar. Danny doesn’t take his lithium all the time and only has issues about once a year.
Mike calls in to talk about the new ‘lineup’ of Guns N’ Roses. The band that Axl is singing with is NOT GN’R, but he owns the name.
The Woodstock Festival is due to return this year to celebrate its 40th anniversary. Woodstock is going to hit both New York and Berlin in August 2009. According to promoter Michael Lang, the New York festival will take place exactly on the 40th anniversary, August 15-16th, while the Berlin event will be from August 22-23rd at an abandoned airport. The exact location for the U.S. festival has not been determined as of yet and neither have the acts set to fit the bill. Danny dubs this Flopapoalooza.
Dave Mustaine and Metallica are friends again. Mustaine had a short stint in Metallica for two years from 1981. Next month Metallica will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and have buried the hatchet to invite Mustaine to join them. He cannot, due to touring commitments, but published a letter to the band at his official website.
Metallica, as you know has been selected to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (on April 4th). So, it is with much respect that I say congratulations!
I also had the nice surprise of hearing that they called to invite me to the pre-ceremony party the night before, and then to the actual ceremony. Unfortunately as you all know, I will be winding down our European tour with Judas Priest so I will be unable to attend.
However, I’d like to say to Lars (Ulrich) and James (Hetfield), I am so very proud of all you have accomplished. I will continue to pray for the very best for you and your families as I always have.
Thank you for the invitation and thinking of me.
Respectfully yours,
Dave Mustaine
A rare form of cancer has been discovered on the tongue of ex-Monkees member Peter Tork, who will undergo surgery this week in New York City. The 67-year-old oldies legend has been diagnosed with Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, a cancer most commonly found in a person's salivary glands. Doctors are optimistic after a biopsy showed the cancer hasn't spread beyond the initial site. Danny thinks French kissing Peter will be interesting from now on. Danny has interesting Monkees facts. Mickey Donlenz parents used to own a huge chunk of the Sunset Strip. Jimi Hendrix opened for the Monkees on their first tour. Michael Nesmith’s mom invented White Out. Danny also liked the Monkeesmobile, cool car.
8:39 – Bam Margera is in the studio and one of his friends has a pinkie finger that was broken by Bam and some of his friends last night. He went to storm off and couldn’t find an exit to the hotel. Bam’s here to talk about his movie Minghags that’s being screen at the Back Seat Film Festival. The film is about a pair of friends that create a juicer that transforms garbage into root beer, but it’s stolen by a shady business man and it’s up to the friends to F-over the guy that stole their idea.
8:45 – Danny is interested to get into Strip for Pain. Whips, nipple clamps, an electric dog shock collar. This is all new to Bam. Doug from the Back Seat Film Festival will administer the torture devices and if Danny can take the pain Doug’s girlfriend will take her clothes off.
8:59 –Minghags was shot at Bam’s house in West Chester. It was originally titled ‘Kiss a Good Man's Ass.’ Bam’s dad fought on the same card as one of Danny’s boxing matches and he also fought one of Bam’s uncles, Kevin.
Morgan May is ready to punish Danny and commence with Strip for Pain. First up the nipple clamps, Danny lasts 10 seconds. Morgan takes off her shirt. Up next: The telephone cord whip. Danny will have to take 10 lashes. There are welts all over his back! Morgan takes off her pants, she’s in a tank top and panties now. The last challenge is the electric dog collar. Bam thinks this is crazy because it’s so early. Shila’s going to work the controls. Danny starts off at 4, time to turn it up to 6. A crowd has gathered in the studio, Danny wants it at 8. He goes down at 8! Metro sucker shocks Danny. Now for level 10. Danny handles it and then takes the control himself for a little self inflicted pain. Morgan takes off her shirt, Danny wants the pasties off.
Bam has a new music club in West Chester called The Note, it’s a sweet place.
9:27 – Danny, in pain, is excited to talk to Belinda Carlisle of the Go-Go’s. They met once after one of her shows and they were in the mutual admiration society. She’s participating in the new season of Dancing with the Stars and its tough work. Now’s the time for her to do it, she’s in great shape, but it still kicks her ass. She’s up to dancing 5 hours a day, 6 days a week. Her toughest competition will be Olympian Shawn Johnson. Belinda is a fan of the show, which is why she immediately accepted. Danny hopes she wins.
9:38 – Jordan calls in to say that his daughter missed going to school today because he was too busy trying to call in to the show. Sweet! Scott calls to say that Strip for Pain sounded as painful as Danny’s divorce.
9:49 – Louie calls in to say he loved hearing Belinda Carlisle on the show today. Debbie calls in to say that she missed the show when her radio was broken and she’s glad she gets to hear Danny’s voice again. Rich calls to say that he digs the way the show is going lately and thinks Danny should find a girl to nail when Amy gets her weekend with Mickey Rourke and call it ‘Bona-Do-Me.’ Danny thinks he’s rich with ideas .
9:57 – Danny’s Final Thought: Recently I heard someone say ‘Life begins at 40.’ I’m 49 and somebody just lashed me until I have welts an inch off each side of my body, twisted a nipple clamp that was actually a car battery clamp, and then electrocuted me with a dog collar just so could I see a nice young lady’s pair of breasts. I think life begins at 60, because I’m just getting warmed up.
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/04/09
6:03 – Danny is cold. Meteorologists shouldn’t end their sentences with ‘seems like’ when giving forecasts. Wind chill factor is more acceptable. This morning Danny wrote a treatment for a television show to submit to Marc Summers of Double Dare fame and is feeling much better today. Danny took Amy’s scooter to work today because there were no cabs to be had. Yesterday Metro had a bad experience with a cab, waiting at a Wawa for the cab he called for. He called the dispatcher again and asked for another cab and was told that they can suggest that a driver pick him up, but they can’t make the driver pick him up. What does a dispatcher do then? He waited 90 minutes for a ride, was asked to leave the Wawa for loitering, and finally got a ride from a friend. Danny has a mouse in his house. It couldn’t get a cab, so it stuck around.
6:29 – The Coast Guard's three-day search for two NFL players and a third man sent adrift in chilly seas ended in futility, dashing hopes they might be found after rescuers plucked one survivor from the Gulf of Mexico. Crews combed more than 24,000 miles of ocean before calling off their search Tuesday for Oakland Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper, free-agent defensive lineman Corey Smith and former South Florida player William Bleakley. The four friends had been missing since Saturday when their boat capsized during a fishing trip.
Danny thinks that a 21-foot boat is a bit small for four football players to be on and they probably outweighed the boat, which made the trip unsafe. He’s a big fan of fishing and the problem with fishing off the coast of Florida is there’s a long sandbar that prevents dropping a long line.
6:53 – The first time Danny worked on the radio in Philly things were really competitive between stations with crazy antics in a free for all fight between the stations. This time around no one wants to fight so Danny has a goal of introducing himself to 1 million people, handing them numbered business cards that explain his quest to get them to check out the station for a week. Danny’s willing to put the effort in and make a connection with the people of Philadelphia.
7:11 – New with Shila:
Police obtained an arrest warrant Tuesday for Salvadoran immigrant Ingmar A. Guandique for the 2001 killing of Chandra Levy. Resurrecting a cold but still-infamous case, federal prosecutors say that a combination of circumstantial evidence and witness testimony now enables them to charge the 27-year-old Guandique. He's been eyed periodically as a possible suspect since 2002.
A 76-year-old Burlington County woman who had not been seen for several days was discovered in her garage yesterday, trapped in a recycling bucket. Mary Davis was found when neighbors and police came to her rescue. It was not clear how long Davis was stuck, but residents of her Pemberton Township neighborhood said she had not been seen for three days when they called authorities. Davis' cocker spaniel, Dusty, knocked her off balance, police said, causing her to fall rear-first into a tall cylindrical bin. When police arrived yesterday morning, a neighbor's son wriggled through a dog door at Davis' residence and unlocked the house. The group discovered Davis in the garage, disoriented but uninjured. "She was responsive and happy to be found," police said in a statement. Shouldn’t we wait for her to die before we try to recycle her?

It was Runyan.
Authorities say a Florida woman called 911 three times after McDonald's employees told her they were out of McNuggets. A police report said 27-year-old Fort Pierce resident Latreasa L. Goodman told authorities she paid for a 10-piece last week but was later informed the restaurant had run out.Danny sees that this can be construed as robbery, that’s why the operator gave her the time of day. 911 was the wrong number to call, this is a problem Mayor McCheese could have solved.

7:33 – Shila has gotten herself in an awkward situation. Over the past few weeks her long distance boyfriend Sean has been sounding distant on the phone and she confronted him about the relationship. They’ve been dating for two and a half years and Shila’s mom doesn’t know that they’re boyfriend and girlfriend and he’s started thinking about his future and doesn’t know what to do. Shila loves him, but is she holding him back? Shila’s Indian culture doesn’t let her date and her parents are hoping she’ll marry and Indian man, even if it’s arranged. Danny tells Shila that if he were Sean he’d be crushed because she hasn’t told her mother about the relationship and he’s already looking for Shila’s replacement. All of Shila’s friends have echoed Danny’s statements. Shila doesn’t want Sean to leave her, but she’s not willing to make a choice one way or the other. Sean or tradition. Sean has met Shila’s mother, but only as ‘friends.’ Danny thinks Sean is asking her to marry him.
7:43 – Sean has stood by Shila through some tough times and has been extremely dedicated and now Shila has to make a move. Either cut Sean loose or take a stand with her parents and let them know Sean is her man. If Danny, a three time convicted felon can be accepted into families, so can Sean.
Rich agrees with the advice Danny’s given Shila. Not meeting the parents when dating a girl can certainly be seen as an insult. Dante from South Philly tells Shila she’s American and living in America. She needs to change her values; Danny doesn’t think she should be so quick to dump the culture. Shila even shows Sean the letters she gets from the prospective men for arranged marriages, either Sean is extremely patient or Shila is cruel.
7:49 – Shila’s parents were in an arranged marriage and do not get along at all. Shila worries that her mother will cut her off if she knows her daughter is dating Sean, and Sean has been there for years eager to talk to Shila any time he can. Sean is even willing to fly to India to have a wedding there to make Shila happy. Danny wants to marry him now. Shila talks to her mother once a day and has a hard time imagining being ostracized by her. Denise calls in to say that her mother will accept and understand, even if it takes time.
Essentially Sean has asked Shila to be introduced her parents so that he can take the next step with her. Danny thinks Sean already has an engagement ring waiting for her. Tom from New Jersey thinks that she’s stringing Sean along until something better comes along. Shila knows what she has to do and now it’s up to her to make a decision, both of them will lead to more tears. Danny reads some texts about the subject, all telling Shila she’s out of line and owes Sean the courtesy of introducing him to her parents and she needs to stand up for a man she loves.
8:01 – Shila practices the big introduction with Danny. It’s tough, but she gets through it. Maybe Shila could elope and get married by Elvis in Las Vegas!
8:14 – Danny’s old friend Taya Parker is on the new season of Rock of Love and earlier this week the episode where she finds out she’s the Penthouse Pet of the Year aired. Not many of the other girls like her. They’re just jealous!

ABC's highly anticipated finale of "The Bachelor" dominated the primetime ratings Monday, as word spread online of a controversial conclusion. The two-hour "Bachelor" was seen by 15.5 million viewers -- its highest tally since 2005, and its highest adult demo rating since 2003. Just like last season, the "After the Final Rose" special (17.5 million) outperformed the finale itself, drawing a rating that very few series this year can match. The finale and postshow special enthralled many fans while infuriating others. Bachelor Jason Mesnick proposed to one contestant, but later professed his love to the contest's runner-up. Coming after last year's decision by bachelor Brad Womack to not select any of the women on the show, the last two seasons have subverted the show's "happily ever after" romance with surprise twists. It turned into a story because ‘chicks love hating dudes.’
Mike calls to say that Shila needs to be a little more lenient when judging the relationships of others. Danny disagrees. We’re here to judge and Shila’s issues don’t take her off the jury of humanity.
AOL's men's lifestyle site Asylum.com recently asked who is the celebrity most guys wish to party with. Of the more than 83,000 respondents, 40 percent named Megan Fox, while 31 percent chose Tina Fey. Trailing the Transformers star and the 30 Rock lifeforce, respectively – and by quite a distance – are Paris Hilton, Penélope Cruz, Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan. On their buddy list of male playmates, George Clooney, with 35 percent of the vote, and Owen Wilson, with 32, head a list that also included, though in single digits – except for Michael Phelps, at 10 percent – Jay-Z, Jeremy Piven and Joaquin Phoenix. Danny Bonaduce was named "biggest downer at a party," by 30 percent – followed by Paris Hilton, at 23. did he get that rep? He’s the party machine. Danny brings the fun! Terry calls to say she’d love to party with Danny, she’s a tornado of excitement! Danny doesn’t bring people down, he might get into an occasional fight or drink too much and get sick, but he’s not full of negative energy. Rich calls to say that he’d dig partying with Danny, but his girlfriend thinks he’s too cocky. If they spelled his name right, everything’s alright with Danny.
8:52 – Danny is holding a poker tournament at Caesars this Friday that could get you into the World Series of Poker. Danny used to perform at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, where horses would dive into pools of water, but the horses weren’t so hot to jump willingly. The platforms they were standing on would just drop.

More than 108,000 drivers have been ticketed for operating handheld cell phones since a New Jersey law gave police authority to pull drivers over for the offense last March. That's more than 300 tickets a day between March 1 and Jan. 30, according to the state's Division of Highway Traffic Safety. New Jersey is one of a growing list of states to crack down on the use of handheld phones by drivers. The state's law also prohibits texting. Talking on a handheld phone has been illegal in the Garden State since 2004. But until March 1, 2008, officers could issue a ticket only if a driver was pulled over for another infraction. Texting while driving is extremely dangerous. Get a Bluetooth and you’ll be set.
A controversial Italian doctor known for his work allowing post-menopausal women to have children has claimed to have cloned three babies who are now living in eastern Europe. "I helped give birth to three children with the human cloning technique," Severino Antinori, a prominent gynecologist, told Italy's Oggi magazine. "It involved two boys and a girl who are nine years old today. They were born healthy and they are in excellent health now." He did not provide proof of his claims, but said cells from the three fathers, who were sterile, allowed the cloning to be carried out. Danny thinks that the day man learns to create man is the day might be the end of man. Eventually we’ll all just look alike, which won’t make orgies fun.
The offsprings of Microsoft's chairman, Bill Gates, are forbidden from owning an iPod. The billionaire has banned the use of products made by arch-rival Apple from his house, his wife has revealed. In an interview with Vogue magazine, Bill Gates' wife, Melinda, admitted that her husband has banned his family from using any products manufactured by Apple, his company's chief rivals. Danny’s seen too many celebrities spoil their children leading to bad results.
A jealous wife sliced off her cheating hubby’s manhood with a kitchen knife – and threw it to the dogs. Raging Kailasben Vyshali, from Mehsana, India, drugged her man with sleeping pills, served in a cup of tea, after he came home from seeing his mistress. Then while he slept she chopped off his penis with a razor sharp blade and threw it into the street where it was snapped up by a pack of stray dogs. “The hospital managed to save his life but the rest of him was never found. He’s certainly never going to cheat again,” said one doctor. Ouch.
A New Mexico man's attempt to create a storybook marriage proposal didn't quite go as planned, when his girlfriend swallowed the diamond engagement ring he had hidden in her milkshake. Although her fiance, Reed Harris, claimed it was a large ring, "I felt nothing at all," Whipple said. "I was racing my friends, so there was no way I was going to lose that competition."
9:37 – Mike calls in to tell the story about his engagement. He proposed to his girlfriend in a Jacuzzi, a week later she admitted she was upset he didn’t get down on one knee for her. Nothings ever good enough for women! Their biological clocks are always ticking, even though we’re in the age of the career woman. When Danny was younger if a girl wasn’t in a relationship that would lead to marriage at the age of 23 they were an outcast.
Danny’s looking for places to show up for ‘Shaking Bonaduce’ so he can meet 1 million people and tell them about a show. He has plans to show up at the location of sponsors, would like to do it at businesses run by listeners and maybe concerts. He was asked to leave a Cinderella concert once because he was getting more attention than the band.
9:56 – Danny’s looking forward to Strip for Pain with Bam Margera tomorrow. Danny’s never one to back down from a challenge and if it mean nudity, then he’s in it to win it.
10:04 – Danny’ Final Thought: Let’s try something novel boys and girl. You’re getting tattoos of wedding rings so that they’ll never come off. They come off. How ‘bout we do something novel. We get down on one knee, we say ‘Will you marry me,’ they say ‘Yes,’ and you stick the ring on her finger. Then you grow to hate her more every single day of the rest of your life. Let’s get back to tradition, shall we?
Danny Bonaduce Show 03/03/09
6:01 – Danny is here, but his mind might not be. Danny has pneumonia, but doesn’t want to miss work because he takes pride in working hard. Danny was reluctant to go to the hospital, but finally relented and visited Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Danny’s perspective is that he doesn’t need a regular doctor, if he’s not sick enough for the ER, he’s not sick. Danny doesn’t play golf or get sick on a repetitive basis, so he doesn’t need a physician. Danny’s x-rays are inconclusive. He’s got a big black mark behind his heart. NOT GOOD.
Someone stole Danny’s cab this morning. Danny’s got a cage fight coming up in April, he can’t die of pneumonia! Gibbons comes in to tell Danny that pneumonia kills. Gibbons died and had to be revived on a trip to Florida when he had it. Danny lost track of time and the weekend was one big blur with a 104 degree temperature. He woke up on Sunday and was talking about showing up to the set of the Partridge Family. Danny only missed on scene in his time on the Partridge Family, he had an asthma attack while filming a scene in a sauna and the attack was set off by smoke from dry ice. Missing work once turned him into a workaholic that doesn’t want to let people down.
6:33 – Danny was worried that the Amy/Mickey Rourke/Danny triangle would be perceived as a bit and wanted to drop talking about it, but there have been some odd developments. Danny isn’t clear as to what happened to him because he was sick, but he does know that Amy had a 45 minute telephone conversation with Mickey over the weekend. Amy expressed her nervousness about meeting him; Mickey told her that he’s just another Danny, just a little bit older. Amy asked for more evidence that it’s really him and he told her he appreciated it and she wasn’t a “Hollywood ‘C’.” She asked him to send her a cell phone photo of himself holding a sign with ‘Amy’ written on it. Mickey wasn’t too tech savvy and had trouble taking the photo. The only contact Danny had with Mickey before all of this was a wink and a nod at a bar in Hollywood years ago, now he includes Danny on e-mails.
6:55 – Danny’s ‘sexception’ when he was married was Geena Davis and his wife’s was Matthew Modine. Danny sent the cell phone photo to a private detective he knows to determine its validity and they came to the conclusion that it was Mickey. Amy’s on the line to talk about her conversation with Mickey. Teaching kids in elementary school was far easier that teaching Mickey how to take a photo with the camera on his cell phone. After walking him through the task he sent her the photos.
7:07 – Mark calls to say Danny’s crazy or letting her go and that he could stand a chance of losing her. He loves her so much he’s willing to take that chance. Jerry thinks Danny is insane. Chrissy thinks that Danny won’t be able to get over it and it’ll stick around in the back of his head. Danny has a lifetime of amazing stories; it’s time for Amy to have one. Tim thinks that it would be great if Amy said to Danny that she just wanted him.

Pennsylvania Lottery officials announced today that one of two winning tickets for the $174.4 million Powerball drawing was sold at the Plymouth Meeting Mall. This is the 13th time a jackpot-winning Powerball ticket was sold in Pennsylvania since it joined the game in 2002. It's also the fourth jackpot-winning Powerball ticket sold in Pennsylvania in the past seven months. If Danny had the tickets he would have lost it on the way home.
Square Root Day is upon us. The math-buffs' holiday, which only occurs nine times each century, falls on Tuesday — 3/3/09 (for the mathematically challenged, three is the square root of nine). "These days are like calendar comets, you wait and wait and wait for them, then they brighten up your day — and poof — they're gone," said Ron Gordon, a Redwood City teacher who started a contest meant to get people excited about the event. The winner gets, of course, $339 for having the biggest Square Root Day event.
A man who tried to cool out his hyper cat by stuffing her into a boxlike homemade bong faces cruelty charges — and catcalls from animal lovers. Lancaster County sheriff's deputies responding to a domestic disturbance call Sunday alleged they saw 20-year-old Acea Schomaker smoking marijuana through a piece of garden hose attached to a duct-taped, plastic glass box in which the cat had been stuffed. "This cat was just dazed," Sgt. Andy Stebbing said. "She was on the front seat of the cop car, wrapped in a blanket, and never moved all the way to the humane society." That cat has been kicked off the Olymic swim team!
7:43 – Danny Bonaduce: Life Coach
Danny reads an e-mail from a 21 year-old has met the girl he wants to marry. He’s told her that he’s quit smoking, but sneaks cigarettes behind her back. Should he tell her that he’s still smoking? Danny says that making lifelong choices, like marriage at 21, is a bad idea. Everyone can tell he’s smoking. The smell stays on your clothes and trying to mask the scent with different colognes will lead to suspicion there’s an affair. Danny says come clean and she’ll be willing to help.
Carol calls to say her boyfriend wants to get a house with her, but he hasn’t asked her to marry him. He’s got a stable job; he’s willing to commit to a home, but not her. There’s something about marriage that scares him and with a little effort he’ll open up about it.
Steph has been with a guy for two years and she likes fooling around with other girls. He encourages her to have a threesome with her, but she feels bad about herself after any time she’s with another girl. She feels threatened that he’ll like the other girl more than her. She’s certain she’s bisexual and not a lesbian, but seeing someone she loves with another girl makes her feel inadequate. Danny says the guy just wants newness. Steph admits that she’d be likely to have a girlfriend if she didn’t have a boyfriend. Monogamy is new and odd in the world. Men and women are different animals and maybe the boyfriend is worried that she’s more into girls than him. Upon further review the guy wants his cake and eat it too. He wants a swinging girlfriend, he’s in a can’t lose situation with a girlfriend that’ll bring other girls home and he’s getting nervous.
8:05 – Jason Segel from ‘How I Met Your Mother’ and ‘I Love You, Man’ is in the studio. Shila’s been a fan of his work since he was on ‘Freaks and Geeks.’ HIMYM is in their fourth year and the two girls on the show are pregnant and about to deliver. It was tough avoiding calling Neil Patrick Harris ‘Doogie’ on the set, but he’s loosened up and he’s a fun guy to work with. Jason has no issue getting naked in movies, and went full frontal. It seemed to him that women liked to laugh at his body. Not too long ago a girl pinched his belly while making out and said ‘Hey, fatty!’ Not a self esteem booster.
Danny asks Jason about ‘sexceptions’ and the situation he’s win with his girlfriend Amy and Mickey Rourke. Jason doesn’t think it’s cool to go after another guy’s girl, though Danny feels noble about it. Steve calls in to say he’s a fan of Jason and wants to see him in ‘I Love You, Man.’ In the movie Paul Rudd gets engaged and realizes that he has no best man and becomes friendly with Jason, but Jason’s character might not be such a nice guy. Danny doesn’t have any ‘guys’ to hang with, Jason thinks that means that Danny just likes the ladies a lot. Jason asks if Shila is single, Jason could be her ‘sexception!’ ‘I Love You, Man’ comes out March 20th.

A former contestant on Sharon Osbourne's "Rock of Love Charm School" has sued over an altercation with Osbourne during an episode of the VH1 show. Megan Hauserman's suit filed Monday in Los Angeles claims battery, negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress. She seeks a jury trial and punitive damages. The December incident can be seen on VH1's Web site billed as "Sharon and Megan's big fight." In the video, the women exchange insults, Osbourne pours a drink on Hauserman and then the two are surrounded by a rush of people. The suit claims Osbourne hit Hauserman, pulled her hair and scratched her. Hindsight is 20/20 and the instant gratification of violence causes issues down the road, but Sharon’s cool in Danny’s book.
8:49 – Joe Sixpack from the Daily News is in the studio, he writes a weekly beer column. Danny uses beer a chaser and just looks at the alcohol content, but his girlfriend enjoys the taste of a good beer. Friday kicks off Philly Beer Week. Hundreds of events all dedicated to beer. It’ll kick off with a plug being hammered into a wooden keg in the lobby of the Comcast building. Lots of local brews and some out of town beers will be showcased throughout the festival. Time for tasting! First up Kensinger light body beer that’s regarded as a session beer, a low alcohol beer. Shila wants to pound the beer and take a spin on the conference room table with Jason Segel. Next up is The Growler by Triumph, an IPA that’s a little more hoppier than the Kensinger. Third is a British style bitter beer from Yards, their ESA. Flying Fish is next with an espresso porter that has coffee in it, Shila loves it. Fifth is a new series from Flying Fish called Exit 4, an American triple. Danny has always wanted to be a wine drinker for the prestige it holds, but they all taste like Nyquil to him. He’s finally found some beer he can dig.

Within the next few months, you’ll see Tony Luke’s cheesesteaks in your grocer’s freezer. That’s right. It took cheesesteak expert Tony Lucidonio Jr. nearly two years and more than 100 tries, according to The Inquirer, but he finally got it right. Tony Luke’s cheesesteak, roast-pork and chicken cheesesteak sandwiches will be on sale across the nation. And they’ll actually taste good—the meat will be grilled and the roll won’t be hard as a rock Lucidonio told The Inquirer. The secret? It’s in the bag...or the microwave, Lucidonio couldn’t give too much detail due to a pending patent.
Too much of a good thing killed a Russian man who died of a Viagra overdose. Britain's "The Sun" reports the 28-year-old mechanic downed a bottle of Viagra pills to try to win a wager. Two women bet Sergey Tuganov more than four-thousand-dollars that he wouldn't be able to keep them both busy non-stop for a 12-hour sex marathon. Moscow police say he won the wager, then dropped dead of a heart attack. One of the women, identified as "Alina," said, quote, "we called emergency services, but it was too late; there was nothing else they could do." After 12 hours of sex, what’s the downside? Danny’s willing to take the challenge. Danny took Viagra by himself once. It gave him a bad headache and his Mr. Happy went away and taking care of it got boring.
9:49 – Rich calls in to say that he was supposed to appear on another radio show in town and when they hosts changed the rules of the contest he backed out and they ripped on him on their show. That’s also the same station that gave away a U2 book as their grandprize for a U2 weekend, 94WYSP sent someone to see U2 on Late Night with David Letterman in New York City. Which would you rather have, a U2 book, or U2?
10:03 – Danny’s Final Thought: It’s kind of easy to say you have the cush life and it’s kind of easy to say times have gotten you down and the recession is killing you. And I don’t mean to rub it anybody’s face, I just mean to point out the obvious. At ten o’clock in the morning when you’re job for the day is just about over and your final thought goes: Now which was the best beer and which was the most yummy pizza? You got the best job in town and I’d like to share it with you in any way possible. Thanks for the bump in the ratings. Thank you very much.

6:08 – BEST OF THE DANNY BONADUCE SHOW: George Foreman, boxing legend is on the show. One of the biggest nights in Danny’s life was the night Foreman won the title at 45 years-old. He always had a good right. He’d be losing matches and land the big right and take the win. George has a new line of cleaning products that are eco-friendly. When getting divorced the only thing Danny wanted was his George Foreman Grill. How did Foreman fix his bad image? He got into church, worked with his kids on the school work, and knew that he had to set a good example for his kids and after working hard at it then it became natural for George because he wanted to make himself into the person he wanted to be. Evander Holyfield didn’t have the character that Foreman has. Foreman has a special place in his heart for Danny.

British businessman Andrew Cheatle appears to be the owner of the most resilient Nokia 1600 in the world. He told the Sun newspaper, "I was messing about with my dog, and my phone must have fallen out and been swept out in the swell. I kept calling it, but I gave up hope after a couple of days." He went shopping for a new cell phone with his clearly understanding girlfriend. Suddenly, her phone rang, and a chap on the other end asked her to swallow the story of a 25-pound cod he had just caught. The cod had swallowed her boyfriend's Nokia. It's hard to believe that this Nokia could possibly still be in working order. All we have are Mr. Cheatle's words: "It was working, but it kept playing up, so I had to get the circuit board changed in the end. But now it's fine. I know it sounds a fishy tale, but it is 100 percent true."
7:27 – Friday Danny was able to tape an interview with Jimmy Fallon. He’s taking over Conan’s old timeslot on NBC hosting the first episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight. He’s still getting used to dealing with guests and the awkwardness of not talking to guests during breaks. Different hosts have different methods, Leno says hello before shows, Conan does sometimes, and Letterman never does. Danny is amazed that Jimmy could get Robert DeNiro as one of his first guests. Philadelphia’s very own The Roots are his house band. Danny thinks Jimmy’s gonna be a hit.

Danny’s had numerous issues with DLR over the years. Van Halen was the house band that Danny owned a piece of called The Starwood and then a few years later VH was big and Danny wasn’t doing so well. They were both at The Rainbow and a hot blond dwarf was hanging out in DLR’s entourage and he’s being rude to her by doing things like setting his beer on her head. Danny was wasted and was fed up with DLR so he stormed across the room and took a swing at the DLR in the middle and went down before he made contact and split his head open. Realizing that it was a bad idea he went to leave and invited the dwarf with him and she said yes. Once in his Firebird he drove her 40 miles away and as the ride went along Danny was more fascinated with the girl and walked her to her door. While walking through a park she took off her pants and leaned over a swing that was part of a swing set. The neighborhood wasn’t so great and there were people in the park and Danny starts to sober up and starts to notice all the things wrong with the girl. She had no knuckles, just solid fingers. Her elbows appeared to bend the wrong way. He starts to freak out a little bit and then makes an insane and annoying sound when she was reaching her peak and Danny split. To this day Danny doesn’t know if DLR knows he took a swing at him.

In an interview with AOL Rose says, "I suppose Duff could play guitar on something somewhere, but there's zero possibility of me having anything to do with Slash... "In a nutshell, personally I consider him a cancer and better removed, avoided - and the less anyone heard of him or his supporters the better." Rose also attacked Slash's musical skills, claiming he has failed to make the most of his talent and turned into a media "whore".

8:40 – John Wetton of Asia is in the studio. There was a bit of an issue with some of the other guys in Asia after 1983 and there was a very long hiatus, but they got back together for a full on reunion in 2006. He also battled the bottle in the ‘80’s. He’ll be performing with some of the kids from the Paul Green School of Rock. He digs playing with the kids because they don’t have crazy egos, just crazy talent. Wetton was kicked out of Asia while on tour in 1983 and found out he was being replaced while on vacation. He got over the anger issues. He missed a meeting with some of the Geffen Records executives and they took that as a snub and let him go.

Investigators said the girl's father, 23-year-old Adam Johnson, allegedly fired numerous shots into a Cobbs Creek home on Osage Avenue at about 7:30 p.m. Johnson apparently arrived at the Osage Avenue home of his ex-girlfriend to pick up his daughter when the couple began to argue over child discipline. As the dispute escalated police said Johnson fired five shots into a home. One bullet grazed a 2-year-old girl inside the residence. The young girl is expected to recover.

A former firefighter in Maryland rendered mute by a car accident says a pair of talkative pet parrots helped him regain his speech. Brian Wilson of Damascus, Md., gives credit to the birds for their determination to keep talking to him, eventually prompting his damaged brain to respond in kind. In gratitude, Wilson says he has since rescued about 80 exotic birds. Head injuries suffered in the accident 14 years ago caused doctors to say he would never speak beyond the level of a 2-year-old, but now Wilson says his pets "just kept talking to me and talking to me. Then all of a sudden, a word popped out, then two, then more."

Danny’s a big fan of people playing cards in the middle of a bull ring, the last one at the card table wins. Bulls always deliver. Johnny recently pulled an intervention on Steve-O.

Travis Pastrana jumped out of a speed boat going 60 mph and broke his pelvis and severed his urethra while filming a stunt. There were multiple penis injuries while filming Nitro Circus.
