In Round #330 EUGENE S. ROBINSON [with the S standing for "Sicilian"], KNUCKLE UP host, world traveler and international ambassador of ill-will calls in from Parma, Italy, where Parmesan cheese comes from, and post-show does a show from a 4 star hotel that apparently has gerbils running their Internet. No scream because his voice is already thrashed out, video link problems, him giving his phone number on the air again, tequila, and a time change that does not favor coherence doesn't stand in the way of him explaining all he knows about All American hero garbage, his repeated use of "Northbutt" to describe Sage Northcutt, the Rothwell-Barnett to-do, and the Bader-Johnson campaign of total revelation. And Nazis in the first three minutes. It doesn't get much better than this. Actually yes it does, but whatever.
And for the listener ON THE GO? The KNUCKLE UP TIME LINE.
1] 7:01: WHAT MAKES YOU AN ALL-AMERICAN OTHER THAN BLONDE + GOOD TEETH?
2] 8:52: GOLDBERG NO LONGER SMILES
3] 30:34: THE RING GIRLS ARE PROLIFERATING. WHY?
4] 41:00: TURTLES MOCK YOU
5] 41:30: A NIGHT IN THE STONY LONESOME
6] 41:35: YOU ALWAYS GIGGLE FALSELY
7] 41: 37: DAVID BOWIE HATED THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS. THIS IS GOOD.
