BallBusting FUN w/ Chris Distefano, Vic Henley, Sherrod Small - Best Last Year Radio
May 2200:49:34Tap to summarizeOpie, Chris Distefano, Vic Henley & Sherrod Small go full chaos mode on this Friday episode! It kicks off with a Memphis Tennessee sing-along, then dives into Carl’s insane road trip (complete with Cheetos-covered chicken and Froot Loops milkshakes). Chris opens up about his pilot getting crushed in focus groups (“he doesn’t have a sitcom head”), spilling wild Hollywood tea on Les Moonves, Julie Chen’s eye surgery, and why networks are scared to take risks. Then things get completely unhinged when a smoking hot blue-haired DJ Sunshine appears at the window eating ice cream — and Opie & the crew immediately start flirting, grilling her, and trying to lock it down. Plus: Tim Allen’s show getting axed for being too conservative, Obama calling Trump a bullshitter, North Korea missile talk, Non-stop laughs, zero filter, and one of the most random studio interactions we’ve ever had.
