Baba Booey on CB Radio means WHAT!? - Best Last Year of Radio w/ Mark Normand Carl Ruiz
Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description
Is that a road trip calling? As Carl Ruiz prepares for his epic trek to "Memphis in May"—aka the Superbowl of Swine—the studio turns into a masterclass on CB radio jargon, rock and roll myths, and the nerves behind a big comedy special.
From debunking the legendary Lonnie Mack guitar solo on Roadhouse Blues to the truth about why celebrity chefs "shill" for copper pans, this episode is a deep dive into the weird, wild world of late-night radio and life on the road.
Highlights from the Studio:
The Lonnie Mack Rumor: Vic Henley settles the score on whether Robbie Robertson actually played that solo.
CB Lingo 101: Why you should never call anyone a "good buddy" at a truck stop unless you're looking for a very specific type of companionship.
Mark Normand’s Big Week: The internal panic of performing on Fallon while running on 11 melatonin and the "coat hanger" posture of his new special.
The Chef Reality Check: Carl explains why Food Network stars end up selling knives at 3:00 AM just to keep the lights on.
5/16
