Today’s topics: Barry Manilow superfan, a golf obsessive, and tasty tasty cockroaches.

Audio:

Eric said he would eat a live cockroach every day for the rest of his life, in exchange for $5 million. (This works out to about $685 a day – so if you want Eric to eat a live cockroach, it will cost you $685.)

Dustin Johnson picked the exact wrong time to slip on the stairs, and may be out for the Masters, or will have to play through a very sore back. So with that in mind, we all made our predictions. Doc chose Ricky Fowler, for a pretty weird reason.

Food and drink news:

In special days of the year news, today is…New Beer’s Eve! This is actually a real and not-at-all-made-up day that dates back to 1933. It was April 7th, 1933, that prohibition was repealed and beer and liquor became legal again. In anticipation, thousands of people lined the blocks around bars beginning a day earlier (April 6th) and camped out, just waiting to have that first drink legally the following day (tomorrow is, of course, New Beer’s Day).

Burger King did this. A Froot Loops milkshake:

Starbucks did this, a pie crust frappucino:

We have always known Randall is a big Barry Manilow fan, as he walks around the studio singing “Mandy” ALL the time (that or Neil Sedaka songs). But today we learned that Woody’s favourite live album was a Barry Manilow record, and that his favourite song ON that album was a medley of all Manilow’s commercial jingles. But then, who (other than cynical Eric) doesn’t love a LITTLE bit of Barry?
