Mikey Show Recap Monday Oct. 23, 2006

Today on The Mikey Show…

~ Academy Award winner Tim Robbins called into the show today. He talked to us about the movie he has coming out on Friday and how it is going up against Saw 3. He said the movie is based on a true story and is about a man that in South Africa who turns into a Activist and soldier once he is wrongfully jailed and tortured. He knows that most people will go see the horror movie this weekend and that he does not care about the numbers because people will eventually go see his movie. He told us that the accent that he has for this movie, a South Africana accent, was the hardest to do out of all the accents he has done.

~ Shawne Merriman was suspended for 4 games because of a failed steroid drug test. We talked a lot about this today and we were supposed to have Shawne on the show this morning because he is our Chargers guy that we go to every Monday morning to talk about the game played the day before. We could not get him on the line but Shawne had his publicist call us to let us know that he is not allowed to talk to any of the media because of what is going on.

~ We played P-1 Balderdash today. Today we found out that "Marta Speena" is not the name that Mikey's mom used to call him until the age of ten when someone told her that Mikey was not a girl and that it is not a woman Mexican wrestler either. Sky had a lot of trouble pronouncing some words in today's game. Also for those who did not know, Bagataway is not Irish slang used to describe a gay person.

Tomorrow on The Mikey Show… Bombed at the Beach.
