Weird News – The Big Lebowski Meets Kermit the Frog

A sign of the apocalypse? To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time we've ever had a combination of Fuzzy, The Big Lebowski, and Kermit the Frog all in one place.

ANNOUNCER - Time now for WDHA's Weird News with Michael Fuzzy Lee.

FUZZY - Today in Weird News, an Ohio woman ordered $282 worth of groceries from Kroger, but was charged $2,783 for it.

So she called customer service to cancel the order. I did obtain a clip of the phone conversation that took place, so let's roll it.

AUDIO - "Listen, you have to cancel that order. This must be a mistake." "A mistake? I beg to differ. You seem like quite the interesting lady. Your instacart includes castor oil, vinyl gloves, condoms, a video camera, a bag of candy, thumb tacks, and a bowling ball. That's not cheap stuff. But I tell you what. If you go out with me on the date, this transaction will be canceled just as quickly as the tv show 'Who's Your Daddy?' from 2005."

"You got to be kidding me. If you don't cancel that order, I'll drop a bowling ball on your foot and make you scream for your life."

"Wow, you really know how to turn me on, miss, are you a psychic?"

FUZZY - A bowling ball. Maybe I'll watch The Big Lebowski.

AUDIO - Nobody f***s with the Jesus.

FUZZY - Also in weird news, police in New Hampshire say Thebes broke into a car mall and managed to steal four vehicles right out of the showroom. The thieves broke into the office and stole nine keys. The first car they stole was to drive through the front door, and then they drove away in the other three cars.

AUDIO - Yeah. Lots of space in this mall. I hope you enjoyed your car theft experience. Please come again. New inventory comes daily. New Oldsmobiles are in early this year.

FUZZY - That's good. I was looking forward to stealing one of those.

And lastly, in Weird News, a Michigan woman went home with a package of earthbound farms organic spinach, and her daughter opened it and screamed when she saw the hopping hitchhiker inside. She was relieved that the frog didn't become a meal and said, quote, just thank God I didn't eat the frog. End quote.

And in this studio with me right now is a mystery guest with insider information on how this frog ended up in a spinach bag. So, sir, why conceal your identity? This shouldn't be too hard to figure out. FROG - You will understand if I don't come out from the shadows. My identity will be safest if you never see my face.

FUZZY - Okay, but you sound an awful like Kermit the Frog.

FROG - Somebody talked!  No one is safe. I'm getting out of here. Yay.

FUZZY - Alrighty. I guess that's it for that. And it's now time for a spinach salad. And that's DHA's Weird News.

MORE WEIRD NEWS WITH FUZZY

Hey Music Lovers!
I know from speaking with you and hanging with you daily that we have many WDHA listeners of the MTV '80s and '90s generation! Including ME!

When I did an "MTV themed" All Request Lunch Hour back on August 1st- (the date the channel launched in 1981) I had SO many requests for songs that featured videos that our listeners loved. But, did you know how many iconic videos were filmed in the great state of New Jersey?! More than I am including on this list! It seems I always hear of artists that filmed and recorded here, there is so much uncredited musical history in New Jersey and when you do a deep dive, you can truly find some awesome history. Was I at any of these video shoots? You bet! A Jersey Girl, and music fan....me and my pals made sure we were on the Boardwalk for Bon Jovi! And while even I was surprised to see how many cool videos chose our state for their background, it's not surprising.

ALSO WATCH: Ace Frehley and Steve Brown LIVE In The WDHA Studio

Rumored to be about a whiskey and a drinking binge with members of The Rolling Stones, the "Rebel Yell" video was filmed at the LEGENDARY Capitol Theater in Passaic New Jersey- (The home of SOOOOO many incredible shows, I was there for many of them!) with an audience of kids bussed in from NYC. What a classic.

And while this was not the ONLY Bon Jovi video shot in New Jersey as "Only Lonely" from 7800 Farenheit at the Modern Times club in Sayreville and

Cyndi Lauper was one of the first GIANT MTV stars and picked Morris County to shoot her tremendously successful "Time After Time" video! The diner scenes filmed at the now defunct "Tom's Diner" in Roxbury, street scenes filmed in Wharton and the train station scene filmed in Morristown, our own WDHA legend Curtis Kay remembered those days and used to speak about them with me. heck, its was a BIG DEAL to film videos in the early 80's not far from the WDHA studios (then on rt. 10) and this was one of MTV's biggest!

One of the most powerful, underrated and beautiful songs from Bruce, this video still gives me chills. It's perfection. Something about the haunting feel of the Asbury Park beach, Boardwalk and Palace Amusements, coupled with Bruce's passionate performance (especially when he is walking alone at the end) - Perfection.

This incredible collaboration checked many boxes. The first to combine rock and rap influencing so many artists in the future, revitalizing the career of Aerosmith, who was out of the mainstream for awhile due to their substance abuse and feuds, and introduced both bands to different and new generations of fans. Our good friend Daryl "DMC" McDaniels has been on my show many times talking about how neither band had any idea how ground breaking the collaboration would be. The video is iconic and was filmed at the Park theater in Union City. The Park Theater is still in existence and putting on shows and cultural events.

I've written about my fave place to visit growing up as a kid "Action Park" many times! But did you know that Alice In Chains took to the legendary "wild water park" in 1993 to guest on "Headbangers Ball" and hut the danger rides? While this isn't necessarily a "music video", it was an early episode of "Headbangers Ball" and is too great not to include.

This is absolutely amazing, legendary footage.....the wave pool, rafting, interviews and most of all a smiling, joyous Layne Staley make this video one of my all time favorites. Ahhhh...those were the days!
