Waffle day!

So, I've been talking about these amazing waffles I had in Brussels. They are not Belgian waffles, but Liege waffles. Street vendors sell them everywhere. They have more sugar in them and are very sticky and sweet. No need for syrup, you just grab them and go.

Brandi, being the culinary genius she is, decided to hunt down the recipe and recreate the Liege waffle during the show today. I've got to say... she is pretty skilled with a spatula! The waffles came out great! They had the same taste as the ones in Brussels. Unfortunately, we were using a Belgian waffle maker, not a Liege waffle maker, so they were a little thicker than they should be, and the middle came out just a little too soft. Still, an awesome waffle... Thanks, Brandi!!!

New U2

Did you miss the premiere of the new U2 song yesterday morning? You can hear "Get On Your Boots" right here. It's from their upcoming album "No Line On The Horizon" which is due out in March. So listen to the song now... however, it sounds WAY BETTER when you hear it on 92.7 / 96.9 WRRV. So stay tuned!!!

Obama Girl and Barack duet?

I'm trying to avoid the redundant posts about today's historic inauguration, but it's pretty hard to find anything that's not about Barack Obama on the web today. This one is pretty cool... they used an auto-tuner to make it sound like Barack is singing along with that stalker-fan, Obamam Girl. And you know what, it doesn't sound half bad!

Don't you hate that NFL robot?

You know that robot that dances around on the screen every Sunday? Conan hates him too...
