Jason had to board two planes for his weekend travels to Las Vegas, and one of the airlines was Southwest. If you’re not familiar with their policies, Southwest is known for their 24 hour open boarding arms race for a good seating zone. Usually Jason goes to the extremes of setting an hour-early alarm to claim his spot, but 23 hours and 15 minutes before his flight, he got C-26. This meant that Jason more than likely would have to settle for the middle seat.
He was hoping the flight would be empty to accommodate his C-26 spot, but of course it was packed. Somehow, the good karma gods were on Jason’s side because there two seats available, and one was an aisle seat. Just when the Dickman started getting comfortable, he saw a mom and child walk back and forth through the aisles scanning for seats and sure enough the flight attendant came over and asked the questions no one wants to hear; “Would you mind giving up your seat?”
After a standoff between Jason and the lady who clearly must have been zone A, Jason got to keep his aisle seat. Maybe it was a dick move that Jason got up so the lady and child could sit in the window and middle seat, but they definitely got even. Sure enough the toddle in the middle seat was kicking and squirming, but those same karma gods were still on Jason’s side. How, you ask? Well the Mom grabbed her restless toddler and said, “If you kick that man he’s going to spank you, and I’m going to let him.”
The look of the “Jiggly Man” in the aisle seat must have set the child straight, because Jason did not have to spank any children.
THAT GUY
Vastly Over Estimates His Abilities Guy, Don’t Be That Guy. Today we welcomed to the show, dear friend and sport podcast producer, Dave B. And yes, Dave B. is That Guy. Deb is out due to labrum surgery, so to avoid another day of reeling on the Nick and Dick show, Jason finally invited Dave B. to do some live radio. Whenever Deb is out, often Dave B. will shoot him a text asking if he is needed to fill in for Ms. O’Keefe. Jason always wondered what makes him think he could be a guest host, but today was the big day. Just to clarify, producer Nick wants the heigharchy of the show to be known, so although Dave B. is guest hosting, Nick still holds the number two spot when Deb is gone. Dave B. even did an I Love You Call and it wasn’t too shabby. The listeners chimed in and overall gave guest host Dave B. and A+. But from here on out, don’t be That Guy.
DEB UPDATE
In case you were wondering where the one and only Deb has been, she had surgery on her torn labrum yesterday so Mama has got a new hip! She called in to give us an update this morning, and it wasn’t completely Deb after the dentist, but she is on the meds and crutches.
Pain wise, she is doing pretty decent, but unfortunately she won’t be able to make it to her side stage on-crutches appearance at the Blue October show this Friday. Good thing her Mum and family is in town to make all her favorite foods and help her recover. The pop over anytime rule is also in affect while she is recovering. Listeners, try not to miss her too much because she will be back on Monday.
I LOVE YOU CALL
Deb was out due to her labrum surgery, so today we let guest host Dave B. try his hand at an I Love You Call. Today we called Beautitudes in Hagerson, Maryland see if Dave B. could get them to say I Love You Too. Dave started off strong by asking for directions and about the prize range of wigs, but after saying he was bringing in his wife, Beautitudes wasn’t too eager to say I Love You Too. Dave B. got butt-slammed.
