My Posse (not on Broadway) in Sydney
I must give a huge thanks to my Sydney posse.
Cody, Stryker, Adrian (If the great people from Famous are seeing this, please send these guys some stuff)
We went to Sydney, Australia for work, believe me, I know that is hardly work, but someone had to cover the Australian open of Surf and broadcast 5 days from Sydney.
With the crazy time difference and not being in America, it was not an...

Stryker vs Johnny Utah
I love the movie Point Break, who doesn’t? I don’t think we can be friends if you don’t like it.
I just got back from Sydney, Australia and while surfing, (yep, I surfed) not very well but I tried, all I could think about was Johnny Utah, Bodhi, and the dead presidents.
“I am an FBI agent”
That is me above, below is my inspiration

Driving a $200,000 Car While the Owner Watches
Holy crap, I was lucky to land a job as a TV host for a one hour car show special called Inside the LA Auto Show.
Part of the show entails me driving some of the cars. Well last night on the CBS lot, I was in control of an Aston Martin V12 Vantage. I must admit, before I got to set, I was a tad nervous that I would somehow crash this thing, or ruin the engine with my lead foot.
When I got to...

Dear The Strokes, Looking for YOU
I have been so lucky and fortunate over the years to meet and interview bands i really like.
One of those bands is The Strokes. I was just on youtube watching the video for Taken for a Fool and I got the urge to write this blog. They are such a GREAT band. The songs, the style, the music, the lyrics and the way they shoot and produce their videos is exactly what tickles my fancy.
I have a...
RIP Dan Wheldon
I’m not sure if you know, but I love me some car races. NASCAR is my favorite but I always watch the big races in the Indy Car Series like the Indianapolis 500 and the last race of the season, especially when 4.5 million bucks is on the line.
I was watching a race live yesterday (October 17th, 2011) from Las Vegas when I witnessed a crash that left me not only speechless but very...

Space Invaders (In Line)
One of my pet peeves are SPACE INVADERS. Yes, people that stand just too close.
I was just at Disneyland and 3 rides in a row the people behind us in line were up my ass. There is no place to go in the line. Back the EFF UP! If you step on the heel of my shoe more than one time, don’t you think that you’re just too close?
If I can smell the churro on your breath, you’re...

Why the Aliens are Laughing at Us!
First off, I believe in aliens and UFO’s and all that stuff. Second, I am not high as I write this. I like to have cocktails but I’m not really a pot smoker.
I am positive, as I write this, that aliens are laughing there odd shaped heads off. Why? Here you go.
The infatuation with the Kardashians. The whole thing is just so contrived and phony. I’m sure you know but...

Hooba Doug and I Going Down
So I was lucky enough to be invited to James Loney of the LA Dodgers charity bowling event. It was a really fun night at Lucky Strike in downtown Los Angeles. There were many celebs and most of the Dodgers in attendance. My favorite of all of them was Doug Robb from Hoobastank. He IS one of the nicest, wittiest, most fun, gracious guys I have ever met. I think I first interviewed him in 2001. ...

Jerry Heller Talks Ice Cube, Eazy, NWA and...
This was such a huge thrill for me to sit down with music legend Jerry Heller. I don’t think I had ever heard his side of what happened between him and Ice Cube. To hear him talk about Eazy, Dre, Ren, Yella and Cube was just so surreal.
The musical career of Jerry Heller is just amazing. His career was unbelievable before he even met Eazy E. All the juicy details are in the hour...

Gambling is Illegal at KROQ (and I never slice)
I really like the people I work with. One guy I’ve known for 7-8 years is the very famous Julio. After my show today, we were both in the parking lot along with co-workers Sean Say and DJ Sonik and this went down.
AND…..
I can’t believe Julio knocked that shot down. Looks like the only way I can win “A NEW CAR!!!!”, is to go on The Price is Right. Wait,...

Muse Rise Against The Rage- LA Rising
It came and went so fast. There was three months of hype, build up and excitement. It was like a wedding. So much talk, so big, it was an event, not just a concert.
LA Rising was held in The Los Angeles Coliseum, home of the 1984 Olympics, LA Raiders, USC Football and it’s still standing strong. It could have come down Saturday night, there was a fire or two in the crowd, mosh pits over...

I think it’s a very easy choice on the best deodorant spokesman. All I need is an account.
Dear Old Spice, Mennen, Axe, Gillette, Right Guard and Sure

Look at me
Now look at him
And now look at this guy
It’s such an easy choice. You...

It's Been About Two Years Since I Did This.....
ZERO-How much hair I now have on my face.
800 days or more-The last time I had a 100% clean face.
Odd-How I feel.
Like a baby’s butt-How smooth my face is
Ridiculous-This post
I just snapped this pic. Yes it’s a self portrait.
And of course here is a shot with the beard. Every pic I have taken the past few years has some facial hair involved.
Now let’s get back to...

The Delivery Boy in the Parking Lot was who?
As I drove into the KROQ parking lot last week, I noticed a man too good looking to just be a normal employee of the station. As I drove past this man, I noticed it was Gavin Rossdale, what the hell was he doing in our parking lot? I soon found out the answer.
Gavin was there to bring me the brand new single from Bush called “The Sound of Winter”. Again, this was a day in my little...

Comic Con 2011
I feel as if my motor has been running nonstop and I can finally breathe. There are so many things I’ve wanted to blog and share over the past 7 days, but for this post it’s all about Comic Con.
My reason for going to Comic Con 2011 was to support and promote the movie Sushi Girl. I have a small role in the film which truly has the best ensamble cast of any movie I’ve ever...

Toddlers and Tiaras, Another Blog
Did you see the most recent episode? OK, I’m not gonna go off too much. This is more of a show and tell but before I show I need to just tell you something.
There were 20 year old women in this pageant going up against 1 year olds!!?? I still cannot believe girls over 18 are doing these ridiculous pageants. I was so embarrassed just watching. Did I mention that the 20 year old won!?...
